THE FATAL DUEL IN SPAIN.

The Gaulois has the following details of the fatal en-
counter between Don Henry of Bourbon and the Duke of
Montpensier :

Henry of Bourbon, born on April 19th, 1823, was nearly
47 years of age. No one, however, would have supposed
him to be more than 36. Of short stature, but of
graceful figure and easy manners, he preserved an ap-
pearance of youth which was not diminished by a moustache
scarcely marked, and an expression full of vivacity. De-
prived of all his fortune he lived from day
to day and found his principal resource in
the generosity of his brother, Don Francis d'Assise, who
always shewed on his behalf an inexhaustible liberality.
Some months ago the prince occupied a small set of
furnished rooms on the third story in a house in the Ruo
de Riven. Since then his brother furnished for him
rooms more in accordance with his rank, but Prince Henry,
who was ambitious of playing a part in the Spanish
Revolution, would not occupy them, and went to Spain,
despite the opposition of all his family.
Henry of Bourbon was married in 1847, at Rome.
Like most of the Spanish Bourbons, he made
what is called in court phraseology a mesa2liance.
He married Donna Helena de Castelvi, daughter of the
Count of that name. By this marriage he had four chil-
dren, one son and three daughters. No sooner
had the revolution manifested itself than Henry
of Bourbon hastened to recognise it, and even
wrote violent brochures against the dethroned
Queen. The advances he made towards the anti-dynastic
party in Spain were not very well received. The prince's
letters to Marshal Prim hardly received an answer. The
Prince went on writing pamphlets, but now they were
directed against the Duke of Montpensier. His vehe-
ment attacks were not noticed by the Duke while he was
absent from Madrid. They did not, moreover, produce
the effect which the Prince desired—his restora-
tion to the rank of which he was deprived
by Isabella 11. Henry of Bourbon accordingly joined the
Republican party unreservedly, and it was among these
new- tan that he bought his seconds for the fatal en-
counter.

The Journal de Paris states that the duel was produced
not by one attack in particular, but by a series which had
been directed ever since the revolution of September
against the Duke and his family. Nearly a year ago, after a
very violent letter had been written by Don Henry and pub-
lished in several journals, the Duke of Montpensier
wished to send his seconds to his cousin, but was pre-
vented by the persuasions of the principal members of his
family, more especially of the Count of Paris. Last
Saturday one of the most faithful followers of the Orleans
family received a despatch from the aide de camp of the
Duke of Montpensier, in which he said that
the duke was well, and begging him to communicate this
fact to the Countess of Paris. The reason for this
message was not guessed, so little was known of the real
state of affairs. It was only on Sunday morning that the
duel and its tragic conclusion were known.

On the ith of March Don Enrique de Bourbon, after
having written several pamphlets in which the Duke de
Montpensier was the object of unsparing attack, published,
in the Madrid journals an article in which the
claims of the Duke the Throne of Spain were
severely criticized. When this article appeared
the Duke de Montpcnsier was in Madrid. He felt it
to be impossible, notwithstanding the advice that was
given to him, to allow such outrageous insults to pass
unnoticed. The preliminaries were all gone through,
and t nally a meeting was fixed for Saturday last. The duel
was fought in the open country, in a field'about 200 metres
distant from the little town of Alcorcon, which is situate
about eight kilometres from Madrid. We are well ac-
quainted with this part of the environs of Madrid. It pre-
sents a most dreary aspect—a perfectly barren plain, where
not a tree, not a house, not a blade of grass, especially at this
season, is to be seen. The eye can perceive nothing
but interminable fields sown with barley, or wheat,
and to ~which the arid -nature of the soil imparts a
dusty hue. The town or village of Alcorcon is like all the
other aldeas of Old Castile and La Mancha—a group of
some 50 houses trnilt of earth, burnt by the sun, the surface
of which crumbles away at the first gust of wind or the first
shower of rain. The church is the only stone edifice in the
place. The inn where combatants refresh themselves
when these meetings are arranged for Alcorcon (which is
frequently selected as a site for duels), and whither the
wounded are conveyed when their injuries sat too severe
to allow of their immediate return to Madrid, is little
more than a mud hovel like the others. It was there that
the body of Don Enrique was taken after the duel.
The news 'reached Paris on Saturday evening ;
and we new proceed to describe what has occurred here.
As soon as the news of the death of his brother reached
Don Francisco d'Assisses, that Prince sent to his nephew,
the son of Prince Enrique, who is on duty in the garrison
of Madrid, the following despatch :
" ' Paris, 5, Evening.

" ' My dear Nephew,--You know how much I feel the
misfortune with which we have been visited. If it can
afford any consolation, know that from this time you will
find in me the paternal affection which you have lost, and
which I desire to replace.
" (FRANCISCO D'ASSISSES.'

" The young Duke replied :
"My clear Uncle,—l am in desolation. I Vow not
what to do. Advise. " ENRiQuE DE BOURBON.'

" The King, Don Francisco, replied to this appeal, so
touching in its simplicity :
" Paris.
" 'Perform your duty. Attend the funeral, and then
come at once to Paris. My arms are open to you.'
Don Francisco sent for the daughters of his deceased
brother from the school where they were residing, and
by degrees broke to them the mournful intelligence of
their father's death. The funeral of Prince Enrique
occurred on Sunday, and provoked no manifestation in
Madrid."

THE FRENCH PRESS ON COUNT MONTA-

LEMBE RT.

The Journal des Debats says that France and religion
have sustained a cruel loss in the death of Count Monta-
lembert. The constant expectation of approaching death
had imparted additional serenity to his great mind, and
given increased elevation to his thoughts. His
last writings were full of solicitude for the Catholic
Church, and the future of the country for while he was
French and liberal, he was also passionately andprofoundly
a Christian. It is not possible at present to, realise this
noble life which has left so many great memories, and of
which the last page was so glorious. To-day we can only
realise the sense of his loss, and the blank which he has
left in our midst.

The Ccrnatitutionttel thinks that no one can deny that
in Montelembert liberty and religion have lost one of
their moat eminent and glorious defenders.
The Liberti remarks that a grand existence is extin-
guished, and that M. de Montalembert will remain one of
the great personages of all time. He was equally
attached to religion and liberty. They were
never separated in his heart, and their union
explains the principle which guided and governed his life.
He was often extreme and exaggerated in his views, but
he only devoted himself to the cause of generosity. All
shales of opinion are unanimous in regretting him, and
frisnds and adversaries will equally mourn for him, whose
lift was so worthily passed.

It is stated that Rear-Admiral Sir John Dalrymple
flay, Dart, M.P., has signified to the Admiralty his in-
tention of commuting his half-pay, and retiring from tha
vervice, as he is by the new scheme of retirement prevented
from serving again afloat.

Monsignor Uapel, writing to the Times to contra-
dict a statement in the Saturday Review, to the effect that
he would rather a man were an infidel than a Protestant,
makes the following observations: " I hold that to
believe in any portion, however fragmentary, of the
Christian revelation, is far better than 'to deny
Christianity altogether.' As to Papal infallibility, it
has been a part of my belief from childhood. Once
admit that the Church is an organic body endowed with
gift of Infalibility, then it appears to me to be a necessary
consequence that ex cathedra utterances of the Pope are
infallible. But this implicit belief is very diferent from
the explicit act of fait required whenever the Church
defines a doctrine to be of revelation."

THE AMERICAN PRESS.

The New York Tribune says :—" The present po-
pulation of the United States has been variously
guessed' at from 40,000,000 to 45,000,000, and
more sanguine patriots talk of 50,000,000 now, and
200,000,000 within a generation or two. A care-
fully E.repared estimate, which we publish on the
eleventh page of this issue, gives 40,800,000 as the
probable population on Juce 1, 1870, when the ninth
census is to be taken. 1 his is an increase of over
9,000,000 ; certainly very creditable under the cir-
cumstances of a decade of war and political dissen-
sions."

The New York Citizen remarks,—" Senator
Fenton is prominently spoken of in Republican
circles as the probable successor of General Grant.
Mr. Fenton is an able man, and has been wonder-
fully successful. He held the State of New York
for many years for the Radicals; he was then
chosen Senator, and it now looks as though he
would crown his ambition by being a candidate for
the Presidency. He has extraordinary political
capacity ; his career has been brilliant and his rise
rapid.

The New York Nation observes :—" An interest-
ing letter from the Washington correspondent of
the New York Times represents the relations of the
Administration with the Republican party in Con-
gress as very unsatisfactory, as not only not friendly,
but not far removed from hostility, and the condi-
tion of the party itself in both branches as one of
great disorganization. That the influence of the
Administration over the majority was small, and
getting gradually smaller, has been easily inferred
for some time from the way in which the Presiden-
tial recommendations have been treated in the case
of Virginia and of Judge Hoar's nomination, and
from the amount of approval and encouragement
bestowed on Mr. Dawes for his attack on it.
At the bottom of all the trouble is that cause
of nearly all the troubles of the country—' offices.'
There were two courses open to General Grant
when he entered the White House—one was to
exercise his own discretion absolutely in the distri-
bution of his patronage, and totally disregard party
claims and interests ; the other was to follow in the
beaten track, and consult nothing but party claims
and interests—that is, let the managers' make all
his appointments and dismissals for him. If he had
followed the first, he would have had the support
of the people ; if he had followed the second, he
would have had the support of the politicians. He
followed neither the one nor the other. The result
is, that he is in danger of falling down between two
stools. He had a chance to break up a bad system,
which is eating what is good in the Government
away like a cancer ; but, partly owing to the force
of circumstances, and partly to an over-modest
estimate of his own strength, he let it go by, and
tried a compromise, which is having the fate com-
promises in the construction of Cabinets usually
have. He took Mr. Boutwell in by way of
throwing a tub to the party whale ; but Mr.
Boutwell is no longer accepted as a financial
guide. His funding system and his theories are
being scornfully rejected, and each member of the
party is constructing a financial policy of his own,
partly by way of showing the folly of Boutwell's,
and partly with a view to paying the national debt
and restoring specie payments. He chose an At-
torney-General.for his honesty and ability; but the
politicians hate him like poison, and would like no-
thing better than to be perpetually rejecting his
nomination to high and lucrative offices. The
foreign policy of the Government is apparently
being taken out of the Secretary's hands altogether.
Some treaties are being left unratified because Se-
nators don't like Seward, others because they don't
like Fish; and it will be well if we do not find the
belligerency of Cuba recognised by the House of
Representatives before the State Department even
gets sight of the belligerent."
The Philadelphia Ledger thus alludes to the elec-
tion of three United States Senators by the Legis-
lature of Mississippi :—" Under the Constitution
of the United States, the Senate is divided as
equally as may be into three classes, so that one-
third may be chosen every second year. When a
'State is admitted the Senate determines the classes
to which the new Senators shall belong, so that the
regular change of one-third of the members shall
take place every two years, and these classes so
assigned to the State and thenceforth main-
tained. When Mississippi was admitted in 1817,
her Senators were assigned to the first and
second classes, so that before the recent elec-
lion there were vacancies in terms expiring
respectively on the 4th day of March, 1875, for
the first class, and on March 4, 1871, for the second
class. It may here be mentioned that the terms of
Senators of the third class expire on March 4, 1873.
With this explanation the terms of the three Sena-
tors just announced to have been elected can be
understood. William H. Revel, a coloured man,
formerly a citizen of Ohio, but now a resident of
Natchez, and a member of the Mississippi Senate
from Adams County, has been elected to the U. S.
Senate for the term ending March 4, 1871, and
Brevet-Major-Gen. Adelbert Ames, U.S. Army, for-
merly of Maine, but now commanding the Fourth
Military District (Department of Mississippi), has
been elected for the term ending March 4, 1875.
Gen. James L. Alcorn, recently chosen Governor of
Mississippi by a majority of 38,010 votes, has been
elected U. S. Senator for the term commencing
AlniAcli 4th, 1871. The name of the coloured Se-
nator is given as published in the telegraphiC de-
spatch, but the election returns issued in general
orders by General Ames give 11. R. Revels as the
name of the State Senator from Adams county,
Mississippi. Revels was elected to the Mississippi
Senate by a majority of 2,561 in a total vote of
3,889. Mr. Revel was born in freedom, in North
Carolina, in 1822, and, desiring to receive an edu-
cation, removed to Union county, Indiana, where
he passed two years in a Friends' seminary. He
then entered the Methodist ministry, pursued
his studies at the Dark County Seminary, Ohio,
and became a preacher, teacher and lecturer
among the coloured people in the Western
States. In 1861, he was preacher at Balti-
more, Maryland, and assisted in organising the first
two coloured regiments in Maryland and Missouri.
In 1863 and 1864 he taught school in St. Louis,
and next proceeded to Vicksburg, Missouri, where
he acted as assistant to the Provoat Marshal in con-
trolling the affairs of the freedmen, also organising
churches and lecturing. Subsequently he spent
two years in Kansas and Missouri, preaching and
delivering lectures, and next proceeded to Natchez,
Miss., where he took up his permanent resi-
dence. He is presiding elder of the Methodist
Church for Sou' here Mississippi, and in July,
1869, was elected member of the City Council of
Natchez. At the election on December Ist he was
sent to the Mississippi Senate, from Adams county,
and on January 20th was elected United States
Senator."

The New York Sun thus discusses Butler's mo-
tives : General Butler seems unable to recognize
disinterested motives in any public man. Conse-
quently he says that Mr. Dawes has arraigned the
Administration in order to curry favour with Mas-
sachusetts and to succeed Mr. Claflin as Governor.
Gen. Butler, in hie turn, is laying pipe for Mr.
Wilson's seat in the Senate. Accordingly the eyes
of the Boston inquisition are upon him, and Father
Bird, the hiuh priest of the Young Radical Club,
stands by Wilson as he stands by Dawes, while
Gen. Butler's present course is not likely to enhance
his prestige in the Lowell district."

Sir John Young contemplates a visit to Winne-
pg at the close of the Otawa parliamentary session
The Insurgent Convention has drafted a new Bill of Rights
as a basis of negotiation with the Canadian Government.
The main points are —" That the Territory be governed by
a local Legislature in conjunction with the Governor and
Executive Council ; that a two-thirds vote shall override a
Governor's veto ; that universal suffrage be allowed ; that
there be no direct taxation except by local legislation ;
that there be a homestead law ; that there bo a railroad
to Fort William or Pembina in five years ; that the public
buildings are to bo paid for by the Dominion Government,"
and a few more provisions. The latest telegraph reports
show the failure of Dr. Schultz and Major Boulton's
attempt to suppress Rielle, for their force was dispersed or
captured, and among the prisoners was Major Boulton. It
was at first rumoured that he would be shot, but later
accounts state that none of the prisoners will be thus dis-
posed of. In Canada it is said that the Imperial Govern-
ment recommends that immediate payment for the terri-
tory bo made to the Hudso❑ Bay Company, and that it will
transport via Lake Superior the Royal Canadian 1:i11:3s, and
a bat: cry' of artillery, in May. The Washington Govern-
ment refused to allow troops to pass throu_gh the States.
The Fenians, as might have been anticipated, ar•e directing
their attention to Winnipeg; their Congress has been this
week in Session at New York, and it is believod a raid in
aid of the insurgents is contemplated.

AMERICAN •AFFAI RS.

(From the Anglo-American nines.)

The resolution of the lowa Representative, Mr.
Loughriclge, came up for action on the 21st Feb. in the
following form :—" Resolved, That, in the opinion of the
House, the business interests cf the country require an
increase in the volume of circulating currency, and the
Committee on Banking and Currency are instructed to
report to the House, at as early a day as possible, a bill
increasing the currency to the amount of at least 50,000,000
dollars " In reply to Mr. Garfield, who hoped the previ-
ous question would not be seconded, Mr. Ingersoll hoped
that it would be, and that the House would vote directly
on the question whether the country was to have more
money or not. The previous question was seconded,
and the resolution was finally passed by a vote of
108 to 73. The curious error entertained by some
members from the West cropped out immediately. Tney
cannot divest themselves of the idea that greenbacks are
MO i ey, and if a man honestly believes that by a vote of Con-
gress the money of the country can be increased in a few
hours by 10,000,000 sterling, it only shows an extraordinary
degree of moderation in him to limit himself to so paltry a
sum. When insolvent States can but get the world to consider
stamped bits of paper to be money, Venezuela and Mexico,
Greece and Spain, will at once be relieved from farther
trouble on the score of finance. • The vote had no refer-
ence to party, Democrats and Republicans being tho-
rcughly intermixed; Messrs. Butler and Bingham vot-
ing with Messrs. Voorhees and Fernando Wood for the
resolution, and Messrs. Banks and Dawes voting with
Messrs. Cox and Brooks against it, so it was passed wholly
irrespective of party. The Tribune predicted that the
Democrats would be found en masse on the side of infla-
tion ; but, so far from this being the case, the proportion
of :he Democrats favouring the resolution was, if any-
thing, less than the proportion of Republicans. It argued
that they would talk incessantly of the injustice of paying
the ploughholder in an inferior currency to the bond-
holder, while doing all they can to maintain this discre-
pancy. If the necessity of the gigantic Civil War forced
the Government to the desperate extremity of issuing
lying promises to pay, what does a greenback now issued
promise ? The others, when issued to tide over enormous
difficulties, said, we cannot pay at present, but will as
soon as we can ; but now, when there is no such emer-
gency, an issue of unredeemable paper money is unconsti-
tutional, and it is very evident that the U.S. Supreme
Court thinks so.
