8 SUICIDE OF THE PREC" " MINISTER M. Prevost-Pe"adol Shoots Himself Throw’, the Heart at Washington, The Act a Premeditated One, but No Cause Assigned. Particulars of the Tragedy---In- quest Over the Body. WASHINGTON, July 20, 1870. M. Prévost-Paradol, the French Minister, 1s dei He committed suicide at oue o'clock thts morning— Shot himself through the heart and died in a few seconds, Terrible tragedy, is it not? From nine o'clock this morning our city has resounded with exclamations like those just wriiten, Though the awful tragedy took place only an hour aiter most People hereabouts hud retired to rest, no one but the valet de chambre and the maid servant or cook of the Paradol estabishment Knew anything about if until seven o'clock this morning. Thus from one o'clock until fve o'clock only two living beings in the world knew that M. Paradol was no more—knew that he had terminated his owa existeuce with a bullet, through tmsanity, despair, grief at tie conduct of his friends, the Orleauists, or Wlatever else may have been the cause. “and why was the event concealed from the know- Jedge of all others for so many hours?’ has been xed many a time to-day sluce the dread news has been spread vefore our community, The only ex- Planation given 1s that the valet Ge chambre, Au- guste, and the maid servant, Marie, were 80 over- whelmed witu astonishment and grief, so ignorant of the ways and customs of this strange city, that they knew not how to act under the circumstances, and ‘Waited until the light of early morn before they ven- tured into the street and repaired to the resilience of M.de Jardin, the Chanceior of the Legation, to give the alarm, Auguste bore the tidings to M. de Jardin, whoni he aroused not long after five o'clock this morning, The valet narrated the story of bis master’s death, in his simple way, to M. de Jardin, across Whose uuind a food of light instanuy poured, nd litde words that hud been spoken and incidents that had occurred uring the few preceding days came back to remind him how, after ail, the deceased had foreshadowed his tragic end, and how it might possl- bly have been avertea by @ little more forethought and caution, I will explain the details further on, but just here, en passant, find it convenient to state that M, de Jardin’s first impulse, when Le heard the news, was to rush to bis room, break opena letter and read in MonDay, June £1, 1870, If any accident should bavpen to me I pray that you M. de Jarain, with Mr. nd the Consul General at New Fiace, Wid seo thut my family and sere Vants are seut ack to thelr co: Luupe that the mea, sures to be (akeu will be faciita © friends thut I Save made in the Oniied States, PREVOST -PARADOL, M. de Jardin.read this letter over and over again, and. pondered over its contents. M. Prévost-Paradol had given it to him two days before—ou Monday— enjoining him op no account to open it until he (De Jardin) should hear something extra- ordinary. ue whole truth flashed upon M. de Jardin in @ moment, The letter Was written when Prévost-Paradol determined upon the fatal act, and had been left with De Jardin a8 an explanation. M.de Jardin hastily dressed and repaired to the house of the Marquis de Cham- ‘brun, a French gentleman who has resided here for maby years, fand who has held the closest inter- course With the Freuch legations, When the Mar- quis was aroused and hailed by De Jardin at the dour he immediately exclaimed, “Prévost-Paradol is @ead! is it not sof 1 know it must be 60.7 De Jardin nodded his head and answered “Yes,” ana proceeded to relate what he had heard from the ser- vant Auguste. It seems the Marquis knew Préyost- Paradol intimately iu France, and since the arrival of the latter in this city had been a good aeal in his company. The Freuch Minister, in his con- versations. with the Margulis, had shown great depression of spirits, exhibited nervous. ness and uneasiness at the difiiculties of his new position, and expressed @ desire to resign his miuisterial honors and return to France. He nad complained of the extreme heat and of very general debility, asking every friend he met if he did not look very il, aud otherwise show- ing curious evidences of approaching sickness or a weak etaie of the mind. The Marquis, to whom Prevost-Paradol thus spoke very frequently, joked and reasoned with him, 1n order to bring his thonghis into a more healthy, correct and agreeablo channel, The Marquis pointed out to bim the sin- gular hallucinations under which he was laboring, and strove by every means in his power to convince him of the exalted, but pleasant and easy, appoint- ment he had received. But Prévost-Paradol seemed Incapable of reasoning. He answered to all th guments of the Marquis and M. de Jardin, “We: ae friend, all that is very good; but how does help me? My trouble is extreme. ‘The iieentt jeft upon the mind of both Chambrun and De Jardin was that M. Prévost-Paradol was about lo be very sick, provably with typhuld fever, but they never thought that be contemptated suicide, Only the night before the tragedy, Chambrun and De Jardin were taiking over the curlous manner of the minister, aud woudering what could be the mat- ter with him. De Jardin spoke avout the letier which had been given him by Prevost.Paradol and pro- duced the seaied document to show to lis friend the Marquis de Chambrun. They both laughed at the fdeaor the letter and couclaled that it Was a mere freak of the minister. I have related ail this to explain why the Mar- mis de Chambrun on being aroused by De jardin, excla d ‘‘Paradol 18 dead.” He felt in @n instant that nothing else could have oc.asioned fhe carly visit of his fmend, Alter confirmiug BH ‘nterrogating exclamation of De Chambran, De ardip proceeded to explain what the valet had told him of the tragic end of the Mixister, and then both of them in deep sorrow proceeded to the house of death for the purpose or laking charge of the effects and seeing whether any other lect 4 or scrap of writing had veen left behind. Onarnving at ibe Jate residence of the deceased they found the old family servaut, Marie Walter, in reat tribulation, pase’ Ing and moaning over'the fate of her late aster. Saying a few kind words to the domestic hey went up Stairs to the bedroom and beheid the friend they had left the day before liviug, and in toierably good health, stretched on the is nightgown, which was stained with blood, The face Was pale but otherwise looked much the same a@susual, The body lay in front of alarge bureau Jolrror, with the feet wwward the bureau and mantel Rive, and the head close to the foot of the bedstead. ition Of the deveased suggested the theory ES: rougd in “thathe must have stood before tie mirror at the “time he put the pistol to his bosom for the purpose of securing deliberate and accurate ain in the region {the heart, The puilet penetraced whe left nipple, jut (ee exact coursé must remain a watter of doubt, B3 no post-mortem examination was made.

It ‘miss-fire, and the Minister, laying both Sareriage a rid tol on the bureau, took the second weapon, faced mself before the mirror, near which wee was burning brightly, and, pal! ing aside his night gown ave pare, his chest, put the pisto} over the heart This time there was no mistake. The charge exploded, and the bullet entered the heart of fhe unfortunate Frenchman, sant it 13 necessary to continue the narrative in lar form. When De Jardin and Chambrun had fn hed their Inspection of evet peg in the house they sent for the undertaker and embalmer, Messra. harvey & Marr, and then proceeded to the resi- dence of Secretary Fish to inform him of the tragedy. Mr. Fish heard the news with amazement, and ex- cb my 1 rofound regret. Only tue day before M. Prevost ractol had cailed upon Secretary Fish on offictal business, aud the Secretary had noticed an appearance of sickness and high nervous excite- ment about his visitor, Mr, Fish said to Prévost-Paradol, “You do not look ao sir; J suppose thts unusual heat has af- Sected you. You suffer from our extreme teat.” “ted heat!’ exclaimed Paradol, “I do suffer terribly.” And while uttering these words le had a Wild iook, aud seemed unnecessarily excited by a very ordinary remar Jn the course of conversation with De Jardin and Chambrup, some remark was made about a coro- baat) Inquest. De Jaidin thought it would not be 'Y, aud that it would be better to take ad- vantaxe of the diplomatic privilege in such cases, secretary Fish suggested that Iiyould be better policy to haye tie Uswal Inquest; that tuen the whole would C shonid be Botified Lo hold ub quest ut tn the evening. And pow an to the tragedy itself, As remarked , the Minister retired (0 bis room about the usual ron ‘Tuesday evening. He called his valet Yo him just before retiring, and suid, “Auguste, be Bure to wake me at five o'clock in the morning, a3 Twish you w give me my medicine,” The vatet Drowlséd to do 80, and then let his master, A day Ox two before Prévost-Paradol had called this same valet to bit, and said to hun, “Auguste, this 13 my wailet, It contains many papers of value tomo. If @nytulng should bappea to me I want you to take care of 1'.”” Fle had aso Instructed the Same servant to take charge of the woncy in his tollet box tn case anytuing unusual shoud happen. Toe servant went to his room and retired to rest. His chamber was just back of his master’s and com- Tunicated with 1 by adoor. The female domestto, Marle Walter, ocetipled a room up staira, About ‘one o'clock eign te was aroused fom his slumber by the report of a pistol. Biarng - in his bed he j heard his master crying outan a feeble volce, “Au- iste, Auguste, Auguste, viens fci,”’ The valet jumped lastiy from his bed and entered his master’s room. He founa Préyost-!’ aod standing In the middie of the room, looking in the imirror, with his head hanging down, The mor Prévost-Parado! spied his servant he cried out, “Well, Auguste, did you beat ie? oye Answered the servant. T suppose,” sald the Minister, “chat the winter was @ pistol in the next house,” ‘The servant, nouciug taat his a looked ex- cited and paie, repiled, “Ab, well, Mousiewr, but if you are not well ict me 8? down stairs and get ee ee aia vio! stagwered and fell Just then sic Pe ia agaist the mantel-piece. The va.et rushed toward Liha, and catching Hw in his arms, endeavorel to hold lm up, but. the Minister was’ too heavy, and feil back onthe foor. The fema'e servant, Marie, who had also peen aroused by the pistol, dud had neariy broken her neck in the fight “and effort to get down siatrs, had entered the 1oom by this time and beheld her master gasping on the floor, She Miggested going down stairs to obtain vinegar and Water to refresh their master, Up to this moment Doth the servants supposed that their master Was only afflicted with a fit, They accordingly let him lying on the foor and hastily ran to the kitchen to obtain vinegar. Then, 4 the first time, the valet noticed that blood was his clothes and started back in affrigit. He said to Marie, ‘Well, you see blood on my clothes, M. Prevost Paradot hag eicher shot himself or somebody else has shot him.” ‘Then, after procuring the vine- gar, they hurried up stairs and found thelr Master dying and’ covered with blood. The Minister was breathing heavily and had Ris hand over the left breast pressing the night gown upon the wound, as Ui to stem the flow of blood. Soon alter they got by his ei¢ he moved his head a hittie, and the leit hand fell from the side to the floor, A few spasmodic attempts at breathing, and he was dead, it must have been o terrible scene for the poor servants. Alone and in a strange country, they kuew not what todo, Thelr master lay dead beiore thein, while hig Gaughter and son were far away at Newport, whither they had been despatched a few days bejore. What could they do but sit down be- side the corpse and weep? This they did until morning came, When the valet started out, as pre- viously explained, to inform De Jardin of the tragedy. Ishouid have explained in a preceding i 't of the account that when De Jardin and Chane brun came to the house the servant brought them an envelope, on the back of which was written, Je me tue,” or, translated, “Lf have killed myself.’? ‘This wridng was identified as M. Prévost-Paradgl’s by his intimate friends, In the absence of the other members of the French Legation everything devolved upoa M, Ve Jardin, the Chancellor of the Legation, Like everybody else he seemed to be so astounded by the occurrence that he was at alossto Kuow whattodo, Fo: tunately for him James Wormley, the colored caterer, with whom M. Berthemy had Deen stopping, came to his aid and volunteered his services, Wormiey is of opinion that ‘a Freachiman hasn't any more sense than a nigger" to use bis words, and with this be- Nef be assumed the general mangement of affairs. He took Charge of the late residence of M, Prevost- Pavadol until he ascertained that no inventory had been made of the household goods, when he imme- diately started off in pursuit of M. de Jardin, That individual suggested that au inventory be made, and that Mr, Wormiey conunue in charge of the house. About two o'clock your correspondent found M. de Jardin after a laborious search, and proceeded with him, Sefior Potestad and Sefior Rivera, of the opps ish Legation, to the late residence of M. Prévost- Paradol. M, de Jardin knew very little about the Peald except what he had learned from Prévost-Puradol’s servants, He gave no reason for the rash act ‘and never sus. pected that =M._ PrévosteParadol — intended to commit suicide. He observed for a day or two past that he was rather melancholy, but he attripu- ted this to his anxiety about the news from Europe and to a slight indisposition, of which he compiain- ed, arising from the neat and fatigue. Yesterday inorning M. Prévosi-Paradol, in company with M. De Jardin, cailed at @ hardware store on vennsyl- vanla avenue, and asked to examine some pistols. ‘The clerk who walted upon him said, in reply toa quate, that they had various kinds of pistols aud quested him to state opel eer eTD kind of pistol would suit. The Minister said he wanted good eftect- ive pistols, He was then shown several varict es, and Ginally seiected the pistol known as Cs breech- loading unitation Derringer. Inquiring the price, he was informed that they were tweive doliars a pair or seven dollars for one. “Weil,” said the Minister, “oue wil sult my pur- jose.” Ho then inquired for cartridges, saying 1¢ only wanted a iew; but being told that they were not sold except by the box, he purchased a box of them, He seenicd to be very particular about the effectiveness of the weapon, @ud made many in- quiries about thelr missiog fre. In theevening he returned to the same store, and meeting the clerk from which he had purchased he said he had bought @ pistol there in the morning and he wanted another one just lke it, so a8 to havea palr of them. ‘The clerk inquired what kind of a pistol it was, but re- collecting the circumstance of selling one to M. Pré- Vost-Paradol in the morning, soon brought out some of thesame kind, The Minister inquired what he had paid in the morning, whereupon he was in- formed that he could have the otler one on the same terms a3 was mentioned in the moral ult lake this one,” said he, Jaeniog out one which Be thought would be a match to the one he had chased in the morning. “They are handy, an more trouble to carry than a pocket knife.” He paid the additional ave dollars and leit tie store, It appears tnat the housekeeper of M. Prévost- Parado}, who came over with him from France, did hot like the house he selected for @ residence, be- cause she had an idea that it was Inhabited by other Spirits besides those of the French Miuister and his servants, She says sie heard noises in the night, strange sounds, as of oy walking through the rooms, She meutioned this to M. Prévost-Paradol, who probably in @ jocose way said he had heard noises m1 the house, too. He quieted her by saying he wou'd get another house soon. It is a strange circumstance, however, oounected with the Louse that two other siticides occurred there before, ‘The theories as to the cause of the Mruisier’s act are various, the principal ones beiug that nis mind Was weakened by sickness and overtieat, or that bis spirits were alected by the deserion of some old fends. Before his departure from France ne had changed bis poiitica, going over from the Orleanists to the Napoleon party. It ts sald that his former friends despised him for this act and accused him of mercenary motives. He was, they suy, wreatly de- essed in spirits in consequence, and it is thought hat he allowed the matter to troubie him so much that‘he lost control of his will and cominitted sul- cut e. One thing appears to be certain—the act was remeditated It was not @ sudden thought, ut contemplated for at least two days. He was, owever, clearly not in the full possesion of his mind, for he taiked very singularly to his friend: becaihe rather hypochondriac and repeatedly showe his tongue to some of his Intimates, asking them, “Do younot think 1 am very sick?” ‘The eventis entirely new to diplomacy in this country. Never before has such a tragedy occurred here and the im- pression it has created 1s correspondingly great. The inquest took place at_the Minister's house to- night. The Coroner, Dr. Potter, with his jury of twelve men, reached there shortly before seven, After belng sworn the jury proceeded to view the body, which was lying in the parlor. The room was neatly but not richly furnished, and, like all houses in Washington used for renting out, the furniture showed signs of wear. The undertaker uncovered the body, 80 as to allow the Coroner and his jury to examitie the wound made by the pistol shot.

According to the same authority he lett Paris under highly unfortunate circumstances.

PARALOL, A great shock was felt by the community yester- day'when it was announced from Washington that M. Prévost-Paradol had committed suicide, Buta few days before the eminent journalist had landed On these shores, apparently in tne best of health and’spirits. What circumstance it was which im- pelled him to the taking of his own life—whether it was, as has been suggested, the intense heat acing upon his brain and disordering it or the excitement resulting from the war in Eu- ropé—we may mever know, It 1s, how- ever, hardly possible that he could have com- mitted the rash deed through remorse for his deser- tion of the Orleantst party, because he must have geen, as everyvody now sees, that there is hardly a possibility of any member of the Orleans family as- cending the throne of France, We shall not specu- late further upon the Impelling causes for this mel- ancholy tragedy. In the foregoing are published the facts of the suicide, with such other information as throws light upon the deed, M. Prévost-Paradol was born at Paris on the sth of August, 1829, His father was a retired major of naval engineers and his mother, Madame Prévost- Paradol, was an associate of the Comedie Frangaise. She was a lady of fine talents, which she transmitted in aneminent degree to her son, the late Minister. Sent to the College Bourbon, he pursued a brilliant course of studies, In 1843 he gained the first prize for his ajscourse in French, delivered before a large audience, and during the following year was awarded the prize of honor for philosophy. Supse- quently he was at the Ecole Nosmaic till 1851, on leav- ing which he remained in Paris, where he devoted ail his leisure time to lterary works. During this year (186!) the French Academy awarded him the prize for eloquence for his “Eloge de Bernardin Saint Pierre,’? the famous Freach author, whose work.'‘Paul and Virginia” ts known throughout the civilized world, In the month of August, 1855, the degree Of Doctor of Letters was conferred upon him, and immediately after he was appointed to the chalr of French Literature by the faculty of Aix, But the occupation of a professor was unsuited to M, Prévost-Paradol, and at the exptra- tion of one year’s service he resigned and engaged = in journalism, as one of the editors of the Journal des Didats, Subsequently he wrote for the Presse, but, after @ brief connection with that journal, he left it and returned to the Journal des Débats, Prior to having the degree of Doctor-in-Letters conferred upon him M, Prévost-Paradol wrote two tneses for it; the fireton “Elizabeth and Henry IV.,”” written in French, and a second on “Jonathan Switt,” written in Latin, At the opening of his career he was an intense partisan of the Orleaniets and lost no opportunity of attacking the Bonaparte dynasty, For a time he was the principal contri- butor to the Courrler du Dimanche, and his writings attracted considerable attention by their brilliant sarcasm, levelled at the administration of the Em- peror. Not unnaturaliy they brought down upon the author the displeasure of the ppt. and he was subjected 40 Jegal gal prosecutions. Por his political treatise on ‘Les Ancien Partis” he su: ered iupprison- ment for one month and was compellea to pay a fine of 3,000 Hen In 1863 he was an opposition candi- ing dy fon Cor; pa gs: ‘otis, but was defeated by a ‘ajor' cy - = he works of M, ng et ae are quite nu- merous and have atiained considera} le ce.ebrity.

AS We liave already intimated M. Prévost-Paradol entered the political @rena as an Orleauist and devoted all his talents to the cause of the Orleans dynasiy, But as time passed he be- came convinced that there was no chance of the French people ever accepting one of the fam- iy as their king. Personal intercourse with Napo- leon weakened his animosity for the Bonapartes.
