PARIS, MAY pa ouadruple en-
counter with swords was fought yester-
day morning by NJ. Routes and three
others named Leclerc, Demeulin and
Blendel. The quarrel arose out of dis
pute concerning the merits of new
opera. VI. Roules criticised the piece
rather severely in the hearing of Leclerc-
Dumeulin and Blendel, and violent
alteration took place. finally ending in
an exchange of blows. At O'Clock yes
terday a. IN. the antagonists and their
seconds went to spot behind the grand
stand, at Longchamp's racetrack. The
first duel was fought BY NJ. Dumeulin
and NJ. BLENDED. Blendel,. after IA few
passes, received wound in the right
lung three inches deep, and was carried
off the field. NJ. Dumeulin then faced
NJ. Routes, who at the first thrust ran
his rapier through the arm of his oppo-
nent. burying the steel in his breast
The third Combat was more prolonged,
but after a, struggle Of, fifteen minutes
M- Leclerc was driven against tree and
received wound in the face NJ.
Ayarigent, NJ. Blendel's second, then in
terposed ON behalf of his vanquished
friend, declaring himself ready TO fight
n Roules and threatening to slap his
face if satisfaction was not given, upon
which NJ. Roules promptly faced his new
adversary and succeeded in wounding
him in the neck, narrowly missing the
infiiction OF a mortal injury. The quad
ripple encounter was over in thirty min
utes, and all the parties returned TO
Paris. About fifty people were assem-
bled at the scene of the encounter, which
will be famous in the annals of French
dueling. NJ. Blendel's wound causes
great anxiety.

A New CHINESE LAW.

The following are the provisions
of the new anti-C Chinese bill recent
ly passed by the house of repre-
sentatives: The bill absolutely
prohibits any Chinese, whether or
not subjects Of China Excepting
consular and diplomatic officers
and servants), from entering the
United States, and Chinese who
may hereafter leave the United
States are prohibited from
returning to this country. 1t
makes liable to arrest Chinese or
or persons of Chinese decent enter
ing the United States or found un-
lawfully therein and provides for
their punishment not exceeding
five years and subsequent removal
to the country whence they came;
provided when they come by way
Of contiguous foreign territory they
may be returned to China. The
proviso allows the secretary Of the
treasury to admit Chinese other
than laborers or artisans to tenn
porarily visit the United States
under such rules as he may pre-
scribe. The last clause repeats all
acts and treaties inconsistent with
this.

To OUR KIcKERs.

Saint Peter sits by Heavens
gates, his hands on the strings OF
Tyre, and he sings a low song as
he patiently waits for the souls
who expire. He hears in the dis
lance the chorus of songs that
swells from the foot of the Heaven
ly throne, and he smiles as the
music is waited along, and MARBLES
a lay of his own.
"There is room iii this region for
millions of souls who by sorrow
and woe are bereft; tits for those
who have suffered the melody rolls,
but the kickers must turn to the
left.
"There is room for the people
who, when they were young, per-
sisted in sowing wild oats, yet who
doomed up their town with sinew
and tongue, but the kickers must
go with the goats.
"There is room for the people
who pointed with pride to the
beauty and growth Of their town,
who kept singing the praises aloud
till they died, but the kicker will
please amble down.
"They say that the music was
all out of tune, and the angelic
robes hand me down., and they'd
send for jeweler off the moon to
sample the gold in their crown.
$50 while there is room for a
million Of souls, who by sorrow
and woe are bereft, we want no
complaint of the music that rolls,
so the kickers must turn to the left.
