Several members of the Parisian press have had a duel-wafting sirocco blowing over them for the past few weeks, which has been fanning their susceptibilities into aflame, There isa perpetual excitemont about the pro- gress of this or that duel.

Pierre Veron malatained that pistols had been proposed, and he would use that weapon. The seconds, in this instance bent on bringing the affair to an amicable conclusion, suggested that, ag neither of the adversaries could be made to agree on the choice of arms, a duel was out of the question, and {t would all have ended in Mr. Mitchell's retracting the supposed Insult, tf an unfortu- nate explapation of the whole business to the public had not led some one to insipuate, that tf Mr, Mitchell could not fire with bis rignt hana be could with his left.

ENGLAND. QUR LONDON CORRESPONDENCE. Lonpon, Oct. 24, 1866, TRISH FLBETION NEWS—MR. J, 1B, DILLON’S BUCCESSOR, The election m the famous county of Tipperary is Over, resulting in the success of the “‘liberal’’ candidate, who received the support of the Catholic clergy. The discomfited candidate thought the government of Lora Derby should have a fair chance, since the distinguished gentloman at the bead of it had promised something or other, and had impreseed the mind of the defeated can- didate, Mr. Waldron, with a eonvictiop that he (the Premier) understood precisely the remedy needed for Ireland. But the priests were against thé “government” candidate, and he went to the wall. There was e baitie, of courge, between the supporters of the rivals for Par- Vamentary honore, and black eyes abounded.

UIE TAMMANY CANDIDATR FOR COMPTROLLER WITHDRAWS. The success of the anti-ring democratic Union and republican coalition in regard to the Rogistership, and the heavy vote—17,000—which it polled for its two candidates for Surrogate and Recorder, bas produced a change in the Tammany “ring”? programme for “De- cember which must greatly complicate the issues of that fight. The failure to elect McCool has given ‘Boss Fernando”’ a new chance for a trade, and which, it is sure, he will not be slow to avail himself; and though it is quite certain (for men have their affinities as well ag metals) that the ruined chiefs of Tammany and Mozart balls, while faithfully avold ing to brave a quarrel, can step into the same canoe and try one last desperate venture for ascendancy, The friends of Comptroller Brennan have been brouglit to realize that as the November fight against his ro- election was practically fought in General Halpine’s person—who might be called the ‘ype man of all the anti- “ring” antipathies—it decided against Mr, Breunan by over nineteen thousand majority, That the present Comptrdiler could stand any chance for re-election undor any such circumstances is simply preposterous; Mr. Brennan hag, therefore, very bandsomely stepped to the rear, covering his retreat with the endorsement signed by somo two hundred of the leading property holders and mercantile classes of this city—men of wealth, who were in positions daring the three years and receive important favors from the Comptrolier, chiefly through the office of Receiver of Taxes, and through the sales of ferry and other franchises, The endorsement in Mr. Brennan's behalf, however, was really intended to have been used as an electioneering document for his re-election. Now, however, that which was to have been the chief battery of his second combat for the Finance Department be- comes @ haudsome screen behind which he can cover his retreat. TRENNAN TO RW STREET COMMISSIONER, It ts further rumored, so greatly has Mayor Hoffman been impressed by the weight and respectability of the signatures above referred to, that it is his intention, upon the third day of next month, when the extended term of Street Commissioner Corneil expires, to send in the name of Matthew T.

The quiet of the White House has remained undis- turbed to-day, Not an individual appeared with impor- tunities for an interview with the President, which is in remarkable contrast with Sundays in general, During the afternoon tho President took a ramble over the grounds of the Executive Mansion, and he seemed to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of this mild gotumn Sabbath and the welcomo respite it brought from the cares and perplexities of government, In the evening Secretary Seward walked over to the mansion and re mained about two hours with the President, Tho visit of the Secretary did not appear to relate to any special Stato business, but was more of a social character, Sucti has been Mr, Seward’s habit on Sundays, when business and official formalities may be laid aside for the enjoy. ment of conversation, The Internal Revenne Burean Maddie.

The Commissioner of Internal Revenue haa called the attention of the Revenue officers to the fact that the law requiring monthly returng from brewers since the use of stamps bas been adopted for the payment of the tax must be #0 administered that the stamp will be @ production ad. ditional to those afforded by the old law, and not merely A subetitute, He says:—To this end @ monthly return should bo insisted upon, and the same care should be taken as unaer the former law to ascertain its correctness. The number of stamps purchased by the brewer during any month should be ascertained from the Collector, and if not sufficient for the payment of the tax upon the quantity brewed and removed, an im. mediate investigation should be had.
