DUEL BETWEEN COLONEL QUENTIN AND
LIEUTENANT-COLONEL PALMER.

Thursday last Lieutenant. Colonel PALMER returned
to Paris from Bonrdeaur, where he had been on pri-
vate business. Oa the day of his arrival, understand-
ing that Mr. Lawasu. had several times called at his
hotel, to inquire for him, he made known to that
gentleman his being in town. Accordingly he was
waited on by Mr. LAWBELtio who is brother-in .law
to Colonel QUENTIN, with ra message from that gen-
tleman, which Colonel PALMER, notwithstanding nu-
merous letters he fonn4 on his t.tble from the most
distinguished military characters in England, Earl
St. VINCENT, and others, dissuading him from ac-
cepting any challenge on the score of the public duty
which he had so honourably fulfilled, instantly ac-
cepted. The parties met the next day, Friday last,
near Paris. Colonel QUENTIN was attended by Mr.
Lament., is his second, Lieutenant-Colonel PALMER
by Thomas THOMPSON, Esq. The Gentlemen cams
to the appointed ground nearly at the same moment.
Colonel Quern-ix, conceiving himself the injured
party, Colonel Pautint, in the handsomest manner,
insisted upon that gentleman's firing first. This
was agreed to, and it was settled by the seconds
that they should fire at twelve paces. Colonel
QUENTIN fired, and missed. Lieutenant - Colonel
PALMER then discharged his pistol in the air. Mr.
THOMPSON asked Mr. LAWEELL if he was satisfied ?
Mr. Lawaitt.t answered that he was perfectly satisfied.
Colonel QUENTIN expressed himself to the same effect;
and here the affdr terminated.

Yesterday at three o'clock, this unfortunate gentle-
man expired. Early in the morning, having passed
a severe night, he exhibited the most alarming symp-
toms, and surgeons Macklin and Peek despaired of
his recovery. Mr. Crampton was called in, and at
nine o'clock in the morning they pronounced the
wound mortal : till that moment his wile had not

fectly aware of his dissolution, and with that cool-

for a Clergyman, and having received the Sacrament,

manner ; stated, that he was sorry to find his humane
interference had been so unfairly represented—assured
his wife and family that the entire of the correspondence
had taken place without his consulting any individual
in the world—that Sir Edward was not acquainted
with any circumstance till he was called on by Mr.
J. O'Connell, and that all the solicitations of Sir Ed-
ward, or the whole world, would not have iuduced
him to abandon the cause he had espoused : be then
thanked Sir Edward for his exertions for him, and
asked for a packet containing his will, which he gave
him on his going out—upon receiving which he said,
