Anotherversion orthe Immediate Cause
of Death.

NEW York, January "A Paris spe-
cial gives the following version OF the causes
leading directly to the death OF Gam betts,
as related BY friends Of the dead statesman:
Setting aside the old story OF a pistol shot
fred at him by the mother OF his son, which
is strongly denied, the most plausible YER
sion is thst, after having received the acci-
dental wound in the forearm, be became in
patient at his detzntion at home, which was
intensified by the alarming stories regarding
his condition which filed the press and by
others of q more annoying nature which his
enemies INDUCED in. The wosnd was heal
ing nicely, but a desire to appear IN public
to silence his enemies grew 30 that he request
ed DIR. Lanrellongue to stop the srppuration,
which he did, though he pointed out The dan
ger Gambetta was running, but TO which he
was deaf. He only desired TO appear In the
Chamber once, or at least in the room OF the
committee of which be was chairman, which
he believed would put sn end to the out
rsgeous reports in circulation. The doctor,
against his better judgment, did as requested,
and in 8 few hours the pus from the wound,
being debarred its natural outlet, took
another course, burrowing uuder the skin
| toward the shoulder, and soon manifested
itself in two large phlegmons under the
| armpit. They caused him the greatest pain.
He had srisen from his bed, hoping to be
| able to take a trip to Paris next day, but
he had to retire a once, when q slight
fever appeared. This was subdued in
two days; and hope began TO revive, but on
Sunday night before Christmas Gambetts,
who was always a great eater, dined heartily,
and, becoming excited during a political
| discussion, suffered a relspse, the fever again
| appearing. In the meantime the pus had
worked its way downward and now showed
itself in an abscess in the stomach. Lister
on other abscesses appeared, grew in size and
nearly blocked the oeeum. This presaged
/ the end.

interview was Gen. David Z. Jones. We well
know that your words cannot truthfully apply to
him, and we ask you to do justice to a brave man

Three N Married-A Speedy Di-

hoASCs
Fort WAYNE, IND, January 2.-The Al
len Circuit Court at this city was last week
the scene of a divorce suit brought by Lieut.
Com. {. F. Schmiiz against his wife, a
charming brunette Of Richmond, Va, a
daughter of the proprietor OF The principal
hotel there. While in command of the mon
iter fleet in the James river the officer had
the eafree of the most fashionable society of
the Virginia capital. Among the ladies none
were more brilliant and sought after than
pretty Flora Ford. Renowned for her beauty
and her social accomplishments, and being,
withzl, of a family OF ample wealth, 1t Is
not strange that she should attract the young
officer. The father, however, frowned on the
suit, and even forbade young Schmitz The

by years of fulsome adula;ion, continued 10 re-

the two, repairing to The Little Church

welded, the day of the nuptials being Sep

rious incompatibility Of temperament, and
the wife soon took the train for Richmond.
At her fathers house she was s~edulously
guarded, and an abiding bitterness to her
husband supplanted the wifely devotion she
had pledged him. About this time the OH
Ger fell from the yard-arm to the deck OF his
vessel, broke both ankles, and was carried to
his bed a helpless cripple. In this condition
he was totally without the tender minlsIra-
