extraordinary Case OF Vengeance
- TopjOn


the Paris correspondent of the London
News writes as follows
a remarkable instance OF the length 10
which the doctrine Of private vengeance
s,nctioned as it has so often been By French
;nries, is likely to be carried out IN practice
has lust occurred in Briey, in the depart
moot of MoseIe. The facts remind one ior-
cihiv of the .Jeufosse case. 10 the present
Instance, the person who set the example OF
takino the lsw into his own hands was the
Mnynr Of the commune. He, however like
Madame de Jeuosse, acted by deputy.
Instead of an old ard faithful servant, MS
own son, acting under his orders, lad IN wait
70 take a fellow creatures life. The name
of the Mavor is only indicated by an initial
in the Drolt, which reports the case as io!-
lows:-"A young man named Basset, alias
Fautan, one day met MadIle. p, tue
DAUGHTER of the Mayor of All, walking 10
a wood lie induced her to talk to him,
made love TO her, and succeeded 10 obtaining
a promise of another meeting.
"Tbe interviews, innocent st first, went on

months the daughter secretly received Bas-
set 10 her room at night. His habit was
TO get over a low wall which separated the
Mayors garden from the street, to use as a
ladder the bars Of the blinds OF the ground
floor windows, and thus to get 10 the window
sill of the Young ladys chamber on the hrst
floor. Neither the Mayor nor bis family
knew of these clandestine meetings, until TWO
cousins of the female sex, terretted out the
ol.,ir and told VI. p of it. On the 22i
Of De ember last, NJ. P-Rordered ms
daughter TO sleep on tue ground tloor. instead
ot her own bedroom. Ia that bedroom he
placed her brother, his son-he put into MS
/ hands A loaded dJub!e-barreiled gun and
told him u shoot man whom be would pro-

/ execute his fathers orders. At quarter
mast 9 o'clock, he saw a mans head through
/ the window. Basset, as usual, was at the
/ top Of the first blind expecting to be let IN.
The Mayors son rose from his CHAIR,
went to the window, opened 1t, ana nred
