LOUIS MATHIEU, See also:COMTE (1781—1855) , See also:French states-See also:man, was See also:born in See also:Paris on the 24th of See also:January 1781. His See also:father, a See also:president of the See also:parlement of Paris, who came of the See also:family of the famous president noticed below, was guillotined during the Terror, and See also:Count Mole's See also:early days were spent in See also:Switzerland and in See also:England with his See also:mother, a relative of See also:Lamoignon-See also:Malesherbes. On his return to See also:France he studied at the ecole centrale See also:des travaux publics, and his social See also:education was accomplished in the See also:salon of Pauline de See also:Beaumont, the friend of See also:Chateaubriand and See also:Joubert. A See also:volume of Essais de morale et de politique introduced him to the See also:notice of See also:Napoleon, who attached him to the See also:staff of the See also:council of See also:state. He became See also:master of See also:requests in 18o6, and next See also:year See also:prefect of the Cote d'Or, councillor of state and director-See also:general of See also:bridges and roads in 1809, and count of the See also:empire in the autumn of the same year. In See also:November 1813 he became See also:minister of See also:justice. Although he resumed his functions as director-general during the See also:Hundred Days, he excused himself from taking his seat in the council of state and was apparently not seriously compromised, for Louis XVIII. confirmed his See also:appointment as director-general and made him a peer of France. Mole supported the policy of the duc de See also:Richelieu, who in 1817 entrusted to him the direction of the See also:ministry of marine, which he held until See also:December 1818. From that See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

time he belonged to the moderate opposition, and he accepted the result of the revolution of 183o without See also:enthusiasm. He was minister for See also:foreign affairs in the first See also:cabinet of Louis Philippe's reign, and was confronted with the task of reconciling the See also:European See also:powers to the See also:change of See also:government. The real direction of foreign affairs, however, See also:lay less in his hands than in those of Talleyrand, who had gone to See also:London as the See also:ambassador of the new See also:- KING

king. After a few months of See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office Mole retired, and it was not until 1836 that the fall of See also:Thiers led to his becoming See also:prime minister of a new government, in which he held the See also:portfolio of foreign affairs. One of his first actions was the See also:release of the ex-ministers of See also:Charles X., and he had to See also:deal with the disputes with Switzerland and with the See also:Strassburg coup of Louis Napoleon. He withdrew the French See also:garrison from See also:Ancona, but pursued an active policy in See also:Mexico and in See also:Algeria. See also:Personal and See also:political See also:differences rapidly arose between mole and his See also:chief colleague See also:Guizot, and led to an open rupture in See also:March 1837 in See also:face of the general opposition to a See also:- GRANT (from A.-Fr. graunter, O. Fr. greanter for creanter, popular Lat. creantare, for credentare, to entrust, Lat. credere, to believe, trust)

grant to the duc de See also:Nemours. After some attempts to secure a new See also:combination Mole resonstructed his ministry in See also:April, Guizot being excluded. The general See also:election in the autumn gave him no fresh support in the Chamber of Deputies, while he had now to face a formidable See also:coalition between Guizot, the See also:Left Centre under Thiers, and politicians of the Dynastic Left and the Republican Left. Mole, supported by Louis Philippe, held his ground against the general hostility until the beginning of 1839, when, after acrid discussions on the address, the chamber was dissolved. The new See also:house showed little change in the strength of parties, but mole resigned on the 31st of March 1839. A year later he entered the See also:Academy, and though he continued to speak frequently he took no important See also:share in party politics. Louis Philippe sought his help in his vain efforts to See also:form a ministry in See also:February 1848. After the revolution he was See also:deputy for the See also:Gironde to the Constituent See also:Assembly, and in 1849 to the Legislative Assembly, where he was one of the leaders of the Right until the coup d'etat on the 2nd of December 1851 drove him from public See also:life. He died at Champlatreux (See also:Seine-et-See also:Oise) on the 23rd of November 1855.
