FIESCHI, GIUSEPPE MARCO (1790-1836), Corsican adventurer, was born at Murata, Corsica on Dec. 13, 1790. He served under Murat, then returned to Corsica, where he was con demned to ten years' imprisonment and perpetual surveillance by the police for theft and forgery. He eluded the police, obtained a small post in Paris, and took lodgings on the boulevard du Temple. There, with two members of the Societe des Droits de l'Homme, Morey and Pepin by name, contrived an "infernal ma chine." On July 28, 1835, as Louis Philippe was passing along the boulevard to the Bastille, accompanied by his three sons and a numerous staff, the machine was exploded. Marshal Mortier was killed, with 17 other persons, and many were wounded; but the king and the princes escaped. Fieschi himself was severely wounded. He was condemned to death, and was guillotined on Feb. 19, 1836. Morey and Pepin were also executed, another accomplice was sentenced to 20 years' imprisonment and one was acquitted.
