CRIMINAL TRIBUNAL OF THE SEINE. THE following singular trial lately took before this tribunal. A man named Dollard, who formerly held a ton - mission in the Army of Italy, stood acme& of attacking, with intent to . morde6 Citizen Vasselin, principal clerk of Citizen Demati. 'tort . , notary, residing in the Rue Vivienne at . Paris , .. In the year 6, Citizen Vasselin, at that time , clerk with M. Monnet, notary, in the Rue L'Arbfesec, became acquainted with the wife of Dollard, sequence .of -some paper he was employed to draw up for her. He learned Iron) her, that she was fortunate; her Husband 'being in Italy, and negled ing. to -remit money for her subsistence. He gave. her some assistance,' which led the•way 10 . 3 more intimate connedion. Dollard heating. Of this, and furious with jeafOusy, came to 'Path, and entering .M. Demantort's office, addressed Vasselin as a. per. son seat by Dollard, saying that the tattet,--wou:4 ed in the most ten& r point, demanded, and .expeded full and entire satisfaction. Vasselin ansvi-erect,ll.s he had no attire than a transient pa lion for.thit woman, which was. soon extinguished by his learn. r . ing that she was equally faithless 'to her husband and her)over, living openly, with another.person.. at Florence. Dollard then discovered himself, de. mandini satisfation, challenging Vasselin to fight, who refused, saying that lic.t.anot choose. to fight for at; infamous' woman. Dollard . retired with many violent threats. He a after Ward's watched the footsteps of Va selin, pro. yoked him in every possible manner, addressed many 'outrageous letters to him, waited fir him at, his door, insultinghim with the grossest language, post ed papers, filled with furious expressions, on tilt stair-ease of his lodging, and renewed his threats from time to tune.. Vasselin, ,wearickot“ with so much ill.usage,"accepted - the challenge; and the ties met. at. Komainville:;„ 1)0114rd, being aCcompa• nicd by an officer of Chasseurs, and by Citizen Gas pard,Captain of Artillery, he Claimed, as the offended' person, the choice of Weapons, which the, seconds op. posed, .observing that the sword or the sabre were unequal arms in this case. Pistols were fixed•( , n; and the distance. Of fifteen paces ,measured, the right. of the-first fire, by drawing lots, and fired in the air. Dollard was enraged wjth 'this generosity, which seemed to inttricrs.) with his resolution of taking vengcaace. , He in sisted that they should fire together, on a signal from the seconds ; and that on every unsuccessinl fire, they should advance live paces, one should 1411; ", For," said he, •• one of us at least must he lett dead on the spot." • Qtuk signal, Pollard fired, but :Vasselin aid not fire ; and again generously presented his full front to his, adversary. Captain Gasp.ard,•the second of Dollard;called out 'to Vasselin to present an oblique front; whichhe insisted upon was the custom. Vas selin,,then took an oblique position, and his adv.p..„ sary's ball just grazed his hip.. Vas;elin gave his still loaded, to one of 'the seconds, and asked Dollard, if he yet demanded further satisfaCtion, The latter, although mote and -mute incensed with Vksselin's generosity, was i coMpelled to desist, the seconds represented, At aoy further pursuit of his'vengeance would be a trOcic us. The seconds ed.. treated that the matter might end here,-; and solemn ly ad . hiced Dullard to forego his thirst of vengeance. He, then said ' ? te was satisfied ; and it I,va, , ,agr:.ed that the pdrties should dine together, as a 'mutual pro, f •of reconciliation. Dullard :cotld not forbear saying- - t 6 Captain Gaspard, ' Why did not you let bin'. stand With a-full, front 1 1 1 you had not interfere :4 I should have kil:ed him." During the dinner, of, , which Vasselin bOre the expence,'Dullard was inci.,n„ siderate enough to report Use following fail, which , fully exhibits the malignity of his mind. - Having some dispute with General Broussier, he . followed him 'to Turin, way-laid him, and employed f on t Men to attack him with blndgeonS. When he saw • him stretched.on the ground almost lifeless, he said concealed by the'obscurity of the night, " Are you • now content ? Take this front your humble 'ser vant." manner in which the 'company received this declaration, seemed for the time to aired Dol lard, for he left the room abruptly and violently agitated.. • Same time after this setae, Dollard renewed his threats and his outrages towards Vasselin, After having cornpelled hi'n, by the most brutal comiutli to fight, he now intimated that he muse purchase his future peace by a sum of money. Vasselin declared to DUllard, that he had been willing to hazard his life to expiate his errors, bat that he would never make any pecuniary sac -itice. On this answer, de_ livered .firm manner, Dollard.zave way to con.. vulsive transports of rage; he every where followed. yasselin, repeating his outrages in •every .form, anti declared. to his.sisteGin-law., that he was resolved to murder him. ' He observed that Vasselin frequently went to bathe. On the 150 of Frulidor , (September tj, lie met him in the Rue Vivienne, and held stick over his head, with. many threats. On the . same evening, Vasseliri being at a bath neat the Pont de la Concorde, .observed, as did also his companions, three men who, from time to time; . were looking through the crevices of the wainscot of the bath. Vasselin, thinking 'himself secure in the midst of his friends, did not refted on Dollard's implacable hatred, and still less suspected the snare that was spread f3r him. He left the bath to swim in the Open river ; .and observed a man who swam at a lit_ tle distance,. who said unto him, " Will you not swim further into the stream I"' Vasselin accepted this species of challenge, and in the midsr•of the current, another man seised him by a bandage which bound hiS stair, , plunged him under water, and fake ltito two woontis, with a atilettu., Vabolia THEATRE-110VAL, COVENT -GARDEN.
