Albert Gauthier de Clagny (14 September 1853 – 16 December 1927) was a right-wing French politician during the period before World War I.
He then spent some years among workers in the north, the Pyrenees and in Italy, where he worked in quarries of hard marble.
He turned to the study of the law, earned his doctorate in 1882 and in 1883 became an advocate to the Council of State and the Court of Cassation.
In 1885 he was a supporter of the Bonapartist Appel au peuple, and spoke against parliamentarianism and in favor of a plebiscite and revision of the 1875 constitution.
In 1886 he was elected general councilor of the canton of Sèvres in the southwest of Paris, and retained this office for the remainder of his life.
He watched the evolution of the Dreyfus affair closely, and was indignant at the passivity of the government, particularly Jean-Baptiste Billot.
[3] On 27 April 1902 Gauthier de Clagny was reelected in the first round on the platform of the Républicaine Démocratique - Fédération Révisionniste alliance.
