THE FIELD OF HONOR.

The field Of honor, as 1t has been called
had its patrons and its victims In this coun
try. Hamilton fell under the shot of Aaror
Burr. The duello fourished for more than
generation later. Names ilustrious IL
the annals Of America are found on th,
roll; Clay and Randolph met each other on
the field Of honor; Decatur was slain
Abraham Lincoln and ex-senator General
James Shields proposed at one time to set.
tie their difficulties at the point of the sword
The tremendous and bloody duel between
the North and South, with its thousands o.
slain, stopped appeals to the code, though
there have been many farcical attempts OF
meetings. Even before the war duelng was
la lis decline. The Potter-Pryor affair in
Congress gave il a finishing stroke. When
the Wisconsin representative met the chal-
lenge of the Virginian, which included the
choice Of bowie-knives as the weapons,
chivalry never recovered from the shock.
The modern French duel is an encounter
at which no life insurance company stands
aghast, however much 1t has written on the
principals. Homer is very easily satisfied
In these affairs. A bullet in the air, scratch
on the cheek suffices. The latest affair does
not depart from the accepted Standard
General Bouanger sits 10 the French Cab

nounced the letter of the Due d'Aumale 70
President Grevy as insolent This reused
the ire Of an aged Senator, M. de Larienty
who declared the abuse of one who Is alb.
sent and defenceless cowardly act. The
General felt his courage was impugned, and
that nothing but the blood of the man who
offered him the insult could wipe out the
stain.
Paris, which is ever easily stirred, was
agog over the prospective meeting. The
people knew full well that blood never
flows on the field Of honor In these degen.
crate days, but the empty show of arms
peases them nightly. 1t afforded them an
opportunity for the exhibition of their pc.
litical sentiments, and when Gen. Boulan-
ger returned from the suburbs safe and
sound from his coup d theatre he was re.
ceived with acclaim by the Republicans Of
Paris. II would be superhuous to state thai

condition of bodily integrity. The princi-
pals had but exchanged shots and the affair
was over, but not until the General and tn Z
Senator had assured each other of entertain.

that the charges had been established; that
