Napoleon was not tho only great man born on the Island of Corsica. Pasnudl da Paoll, one of the great patriots of his tory, was a Corsiean. For mors than two and a half centuries Corsica had been under the eon. trol of the Genoese. In 1753, un der the leadership of Paoll, she threw off tho Genean yoke. F01 fourteen years thereafter Paoll administered the affairs of the leland. and did It wisely and well. He brought about man reforms, and encouraged oc n meroe and the arts. In 17(9. having 'furchated" the Island from the Genoese, France land ed an army of 22,000 soldiers. Paoll with a few thousand Cor alcana met them boldly, but was badly defeated. With his little army reduced to 617 men and surrounded- by 4,000 French, he cut his way out and escaped to England. The Flench con quered the Island, but at a cost of more than 10.C00 men, nearly half of whom were killed. Paoll remained In England twenty years. At the outbreak of the Frenoh Revolution he returned to Corsica and became military governor. He soon broke with the French, however, and re turned to England, wiiere ho died In 1807. Eighty years afterward his aches were re moved to Corsica and entombed with great honors. Lamartine, the eminent Frenoh writer, said: "Corsica remains still In the place of a mere province, but Paoll aesumes his place among the ranks of great men."
