A special dispatch from Mt Sterling, Ky., to the Courier Journal says : Jas. Pcttit, a Deputy U. S. marshal, arrived there last night from a point 20 miles from Jackson, the scene of the late disturbances in Breathilt county, and reports another collision Ixtween the parties of Dill Strong and Jerry Little, which occurred Weduosduy evening last. Four men were killed and seven wounded. Jerry Little is among the killed. The report is confirmed by the mailcarrier from Compton, Wolf county, situated twenty miles this side of Jackson. PARIS LETTER. M. 0AMBETTA8 DIEL. Kcioilar Correapondenee. Paris, November 23, 1878. Yesterday a duel was fought w ith pistols, at Pleasis-Piquer, Ixtween M. de Foiirton and M. Ganibcttii. One shot was exchanged, but fortunately, neither of the combatants was injured. This satisfactory ending of what was, all rail, a paltry personal quar rel, is the general topic of conversation to day, both in the chamber, nt Versailles, and at Paris. Attempts were made to ar range th.' dispute without recourse to arms, and the entire day preceding the duel was spent in conversations V-tween the seconds of the resjicctive parties. At first M. de Foiirton had instructed M. de la Rorhctte and M. Lengle to demand a retraction from M. Ganibctta, or apology, tor the expression "it is a lie," used by tho hitter in the dis cussion of Monday last. These gentleman, however, retired from the scene, having, as they held, accomplished their mission, and then M. de Fourton asked M. Rolx'rt Mitch ell and M. Blin do Bourdon to act for him. M. Gumbetta chose M. Allain F'arge and M. Clemenceau, tho left-handed Republican fencer, whom M. de Cossagnac refused to tight, for that purpose. Notwithstanding strong efforts on Isith sides, it was seen from tho outset, that tho principals would not bo satisfied with a mere verbal arrangement of their quarrel. The following is the official account, signed by the seconds, of what took phtce yesterday at Pleads-Piquet, which is near Cliutillou: In tho sitting of the chamber of deputies, on Novemlier 18th, 1878, M. do Fourton made a statement which M. Gsmlietta in terrupted with the words, "It is a lie." In consequence of the interference of the pres ident of the chamber, M. Gainbettu a short, time afterwards said, "Out of iVeference to the rules of tho house I withdraw the ex pression. M. do Fourton, holding that the offensive words were not withdrawn, so far as ha was concerned, charged M. M. Bdn de Bourdon and Robert Mitchell, deputies, to demand of M. Gumbetta a retraction or h reparation by arms. On hiaaido M. Gum U tLi asked M. M. AIIhIii Fargo and Clem ena.tn to put themselves in communication with thn gentlemen who wero acting for M. de Foiirton. Tho four soronds held a I meeting tit which M. de Fotiiin' friends insisted on u ri Unction from M. liiiuilietln of the winds rompluineil of, holding that tho withdrawal iiiude in the Chamber of Deputies rcndi red the original exclamation still more. olL-usivc, Under ihese circum Ktanet'B it was agreed by the four wcouds tliut a hostile meeting wn inevitable. It was arranged that M. do Foiirton should have tho choice of weapons, and ho nanied pistols. Among tho conditions laid down for the meeting it was stipulated that the duel should tuko place with rifle saloon pistols at a distance of thirty-tire yank and tliut only ono shot should bo ex changed. After the pistol, wen- discharged tho seconds shook hands, M. Gambettii and M. tie Foiirton saluted each other, and thus ended what will lie regarded in 'he ftiturv as k memorable encounter. - It his high time that a stop should be put by legal means to conflict which oscil late between the ridiouloiu and tniiic. The life of a statesman is far too valuable to bo imperil! ed at the bidding of the first individual who choses to pick a quarrel with him, but it is clear that public opin ion is not against the practice and nothing but new legislation on the subject will put a stop to tho evil. In this particuhir esse M. Gunilicttu was certainly justilled in lining 'an unparliancniary expression, and it would have been Uy no means beneath his 'r&jnity to withdraw it but there is no doubt that hv is a strong and perfectly justifiable personal ' Wiiinus against M. tin Foiirton, who was Minister of the Interior when the government convicted the great orator for hitving declared that Marshul MacMa hon had only onojof two alternatives open to him in the dilemma injn which bo- had been thrust by evil iiiiisollonu Ihu usser- .- .i. . i . -.i . iV , i ' j tion that w must either reUJju'or .yield con , veyed a covert compliment, 'fiuismuch us it I Mctuully sentenced to be imprisoned, nnd he.uien have fadcn us Mnldeidy and ss h.v w.is still under sentence when tho Marshal' verified the orator's words. Tho absurdity of carrying out a conviction under such cir- Ollm IIOIWIOU U'nllLl t-Hirt l.onn tna rri nit.l vuui.'iiwii,w nouni ltu OHii 1,11 iii;.tii, UIHI j moreover, M. Gambetti was from that mo- i ment so powerful that the thing was out of ..' w yw " ."" . n , , editor is expr.cted to io morn for nothing, the question. M.Gambetta naturally looks t0 mor(!,fr the money, to cxpeci. upon the then minister of the interior ns less tlutiiks, or uven m kiiowledgmcnt for responsible for tho unpardonitble injustice I favors done.than the lawyer, tioctor. clfrgy .i.;,.K infi;,.,t i.!. it ...'... i... num. merchsnt. mechanic, and farmer. conceded that M. de Fourton 's speech of tho other dny was provocation in th" ex treme. He deliberately accused M.Gam betta of having at Aix "declared war against all Frenchmen who wer" not ani mated by the old Republican taith." Now M. Gauds tta's words, quoted by an even ing paper, were these : "Then' is n exclu siveness in our Republic. Ail can enter. Our arms are; opened to all. Wo have t m passionate a tlesire to repair tlio losses of France to exclude any Frenchman from tho work of tho restoration of tiur country." These noble and patriotic words certainly do not bear the interpretation put upon them by tho ex-minister, nnd it is easy to understand M. Gamhctta's indignation at hearing himself thus misrepresented. If the unparliamentary language of M. Gani bctta cannot be defended, his behaviour in consenting to risk his life merely because ' M. tie Fourton chose to take up a hasty word, is still less to be excused. His posi- ! tion is too high, and his existence too valu nblc, to bo lightly inqwriled. Ho holds the greater p.ut of France in the hollow of; his hand, and it is not for smh a man to take up it primx ution w hich might be systematically renewed by a uum Iht of confederates, determined to persevere until they had wreaked their vengeance on the popular tribune. M. de Fourton can not. however, be reckoned nmong these ban dits; indeed, the combatants of yesterday were well matched. M. de Fourton is pr- ticularly short sighted, nnd M. Oambetta has only one eye. No wonder that on a:i eHtinrrlw fnw nw.rnlnrr nelf h.. nt nv ' orj is combatants succeeded in hitting tho other. Both must be held to bo for the future n freed from the charge of braggiulocia as j often it happens that, although wo have wit from that of cowardice. In order to lead nessed thn ravages of disease in tho case re' people to imagine that tho dillie.ulry had ' others, wo disregard his warning signals in been atranged, M. Oambetta spent tho pre- j our own. It is only when we find him bVe ceding evening at tho ministry of ngricul- j to face with us that we really perceive how ture, whore ho dined, while M. do Fourton grim ho is. Then, perchance, when it is ton passed his at the opera. Now that M. Ganibctta "a fait ses preuves," it Is to be hoped that he will proclaim Ids intention of never again "going out," and that he will thus place it beyond the power of any polit ical antagonist! to get him out of tho way. To show how wodded Frenchmen are to their habit of duelling, it is only necessary to read tho "Ordre" of this evening, in which the admirable suggestions made in yesterday's "Temps," to settle all differ ences by parliamentary regulations, nro held up to ridicule. It is to ho feared, in deed, that th w u! 1 not be sufficient, and that nothing would suffice but a long term of imprisonment, administered with out merry, to any one convicted of tho send ing of a challenge.
