A fatal duel took place between M. Armand Carrel, editor of the Parisian journal the Nationel, and M. Émile de Girardin, editor of the Presse. The Nationel, in a very measured note upon a prosecution instituted by the Presse against the Bon Sens, expressed an opinion, that M. de Girardin would have done better to settle his quarrel with the editor of that feuilleton by written discussion, than by having recourse to the law. The Presse, in answering this note, introduced, in a manner not the most proper, the name of M. Carrel; who, although he did not sign the Nationel as its responsible editor, felt himself called upon to take the steps which led to such a deplorable result. M. Carrel fired first, and wounded his adversary in the thigh. M. de Girardin fired in his turn, and the ball entered the lower part of M. Carrel’s body. He was immediately conveyed to Mandé, to the house of M. Peyra, an old and intimate friend; where he died on the following day. When they were carrying him from the ground, in passing his antagonist, he said to him, “And are you, M. de Girardin, suffering much?” The latter, replied, “I wish, sir, you were not more seriously wounded than I am.” BETWEEN THE HONOURABLE GRANTLEY BERKELEY AND WILLIAM MAGINN, LL.D. August 4, 1836. In consequence of an assault committed by the Honourable Grantley Fitzhardinge Berkeley, M.P. on Mr. James Fraser, the publisher of the magazine under his name, Dr. William Maginn, the author of the article which originally gave offence, left his card at Berkeley House. A hostile message was forthwith sent by the honourable member, and a meeting was agreed upon for seven o’clock in the evening. Mr. Grantley Berkeley was attended by Major Fancourt, and Dr. Maginn by Mr. Hugh Fraser. The parties met in a field near the Edgeware Road, and, after exchanging three shots without effect, Mr. Hugh Fraser withdrew his principal; no explanation or apology having been required or tendered. BETWEEN MR. HARRING AND A POLISH OFFICER. May 11, 1837. A duel was this morning fought, in a field adjoining Hampstead Heath, between Mr. Harro Harring, a native of Denmark, and a Polish officer, whose name is not known. The principals met on the ground, attended by seconds; and, having been placed at ten paces’ distance, both discharged their pistols at the same instant, when Mr. Harring fell to the ground. He was conveyed to the North London Hospital; and the wound being pronounced to be dangerous, the victor, after asking and receiving forgiveness from the wounded man, mounted his horse and rode off to London Bridge; where he embarked on board a steamboat for Boulogne; the duel having been expressly fought at the time appointed, to allow the escape of the survivor to the Continent. BETWEEN MR. ANDERSON AND MR. JONES. August 1837.
