PHE CHICAGO 'CRIBUNE PARIS. The Tragi-Comedy of De Fourtou and Gambhetta. Ifach Ado About Nothing-.-Some Re- flections on French Duels and Daelists, Letest from the Thentres--Prodnction of Lecorq’s ¢ ¢amargo* at the Remaissance, Sneciat Correaponenee of The Tribune, Pams, Nov. 21.—Wae have just recelved news from Vereailles of a tnost {ncredibie and een- satlonal nature, If {t bo true,~and, with ail e lacredulity, it seems only too true,=3l, flambetta and M. de Fourton—that fs to sy, e must prominent opponent and the nrost prominent champion of tha pernicious polley vewun on the 10th of May laet vear—fourht n duel this morning &t Plessis-Piquet, a place near Parfs. The telegrams sdd that the com- patants exchanged two vistol-ahots at thirty- {lve paces; that nelther ball took effeet; and hat the adyersaries returned to thelr respective alfaira safc and sound, after liaving, wo may presume, partaken, elther separately or n com- pany, of gome light refrestunent at the nearest restanrant, No—atay—1 must bo oxaee, They did not ca’ in company. After the sliots had whlzzed on thelr harmlesa erraud, the enemies saluted each other afinply, aud withdrew in aif- ferent directions. French Deptities are, as T need hardly ob- gerve, pecullarly eensitive on what they are plensed to eall FOINTS OF NONOR. 4 1t s common enough for hot-headea and frre; sponsible mad men, of the Paul de Cassagnac aml Nobert Mitchell stamp, to quarrel about bluing thumbs, or, for that matter, without any biting ot thumbsa; and nobody feels cither great concern ur surprise when a foollsh squabble in such cases ends fn o meeting, We had, how- ever, tpposed M. Gambetta hitherto far too cautlous and sensible to risk the success of a grent cause upon the fssuo of a duel; whiloe M. de Fourtou, andacions as heo was while he played the Lyrant {o the safety of the Minfster of the Interior, had not aceustomed ua to the ften of uny rnu(cnl boldness in connectlon with hinself ainve he fell from office. Indeed, ke had cut rather o phillul - fleure, aul had allcuated the admiratdon of his few supporters by ondeavorinz to shufliy ot of all reaponsibility for his political nets. 1 doubt whether citlier’ bas done himnelf an ood by this ridlculous and untragieal fight, 1 L had dicatied one of them, tow, the victim might have got some credit for physical conrage, In M. de Fourton's ense, & goud wound might have covered & multitude of sins, awd spared that sianer 4 certain finpeachment at present suspended over hits gulity fiead ke a Damocles eword, over threatenink to destrov him. But the detalls of tho escounter, o we haye them deseribed fn the published proces-verbal, do awny with heroles, and surgest g suspicion thut the seconds bnd “arranged” uffalis so tbat no danger was to be apprehended by the principals. One need not be very brave to stand up, on o, fozey November morning Jlke this, at thirty-tive vaces' distanee from o hostlle plstol wilich— even If loaded—was NOT VERY LIKELY TO HIT THE MARK, Hlad serious Highting beeu meant, it is fmprob- able that M. Gambetta’s scconds wonld have consented to the cholea of weapons madoe by the enemy. M. Gambetia’s huge, Larrel-shaved Lody evidently puts him at o disndvantage with n wun of M, Fourtou's comvarative lH(mlllrl Then M, Fourtou has two cyes, \whilo M lielta, na every one knows, has but one. ‘The affstr, on tho whole, will nava nelther vindleated M. Fourtou’s outraged veracity, nor A Gambetta’s _reputation for common e caunot afford to lose that. . Avropos, 1 bave takeu it for granted (perhaps too Jightly) that the telegraph has transmitted yun the atory of tho dispute in the Chamber which led tothe ducl. During the: debate on his_slection at Riberac, M, de Fourton was pullty of n dellberato misstatement. Heaceused M. Gambetts of *declaring war awainat sl who did notshare bls Republicnn faleh.* The Genoeso bload bolled at the fmputation. Iardly had M. de Fourtou uttercd the words when Al tiambet- ta retorted by a | aml distinet, **'That's o lie!” Ho'was'very” propetly called upon by M. Grevy to withdraw the unparitamentary ex- rron lon, snud *to conform with the rules of tho {ouse.” Ilo consented. But the manter ot the retraction was unhu{mlly an agaravation of the urlginal insult. M. de Fourtou, after consulting bis frionas, sent MM, Robert Mitchell and Win de Hourdon—two tles—to demand an apology. This, as rrams hiave informed us, was refused, and 80 the vallant Gumbettn and the cqually valiaat Da Fourtou have lind to leave their wart beds this ruw mornlng, to travel luto the country ten mtes or 80, and put themsclves to varfous other inconvenfences—for nothing, Ce w'etall pas peine 1a vraiment! .
