A duel, attended with earsgerato consequences, took plaice ma Friday evening lust, at iiinam'clock, in 4 field between Chalk Pam tavern and Primrose hill. The parties in this unhappy conflict were Mr. John Scott, the avowed editor of the Lode* Magazine, and Mr. Christie • friend of the su p s pos e d conductor of illetekshosts hfagazitee—Me. John Gllvo° Lockhart. of Edinburgh. The ori ginal cause of quarrel between these gentlemen, we understand. had its rise in as series of three omelet which appestat in the Los*Mß Magazine, disco's ing the coadact and management of Blisekefood's Magazine, and regarded by Mr. Lockhart so offen sive to his feeliags, end injurioas in his honour. Mr. Christie, as the friend of Mr. Lockhart, wailed upon Mr. Scott to demand en explanation of the articles in question, and in fact, to require a public apology fur matter which he considered person .lly offensive to himself, or such other satisfac tion as a gentleinau was entitled to. This interview led to others, as well as to a correspondence, in which much of mutual warmth was expressed. Tu prevent nusepprehension of what bad occurred, Mr. Scott published hrs statement of the transactions to which he liad beets • party. which were very gene. rally circulated in the 161.'1'7 world, as well as copied into some of the daily papers. This was followed by a statement on the part of Mr. Christie, the friend of „Or. Lockhart, which was followed by a second statement from the pen of Mr. Scott, in which he treated the conduct of Mr. Lockhart with great asperity. and defended the course which he had pursued with considerable warmth. Then followed a counter-statement from Mr. Christie, which, we lamest to say. led to the event we are about to describe. In this counter-statement, which has not yet met our eye, we have been informed Mr. Christie applied, as from himself, epithets to Mr. Scott, that lie could not, consistently with his own feelings as a gentleman, suffer to piss with impunity. He, an consequence, as soon as the statement in question met his eye, proceeded with his friend, Mr. Patmore, to Mr. Christie'. lodgings, and demaiided an apology, or instant satisfaction. Mr. Christie refused the former, and expressed his readiness, without loot of time, to grant the latter. The matter having come to this issue, it was agreed that they should meet, with as little delay as possi ble, at Chalk Farm; and thither they proceeded, as we have already stated, at nine o'clock the same night. Mr.. Scott was attended by his friend Mr. Patmore, end by Mr. Pettigrew, a medical Gen tleman, of Spring-garderis. 'lle moon shone with brightness, so that the party had a full copper toasty of eeriug each other, and, having taken their ground, they fireil together. The result was fatal to Mr. Scott, who received his antagonist's ball in Isis groin, and fell. Every assistance which the cucumatances would permit was afforded him, and be was conveyed cut a shutter to Chalk Farm Tavern, where he was laid on a bed in an almost hopeless state. Mr. Christie and his second then retired, and taking their seals in the post chaise in which they had come, sought their own safety in flight. Mr. Pettigrew, after having rendered all the assistance in his power to Mr. Scott, returned to town, in ender to procure farther surgical assistassee, and to give directions that Mt. Scott's. aparttneuts at Mr. Bothe's in York sheet, should be prepared for his reception, Mr. Scott having expressed a desire that he should be removed home. A short time after Mr. Pettigrew's depar ture, however, it was found that Mr. Scott could not be removed with safety, and Mrs. Scott, and her father, Mr. COlnsighi, of Cockspur-street, were sent for. The melancholy summons was in stantly attended. Mrs. Scott, who had spent the day as her father's house, and•from whom Mr. S: had parted tat re-en o'clock, saying he was going to dine with a friend in the Temple, instantly- set off wiih her father, in a poet-chaise, to her husband's bedside, where she remained the rest of the night. The unfortunate gentleman lay in a tranquil state, but extremely weak. On examination, it appeared that the ball had passed through the intestines, and lodged at the opposite side, where it was des tinttly felt. The surgeon's in attendance, how.: ever, deemed it prudent not to extract it. lest any additional inflammation should be excited; and the danger, which was considered imminent, be thereby At three o'clock yesterday Mr. Scott remained in the same state; appearances of in flisminstion hair. ing, however, soon afterwards manifested them selves. he was copiously bled. and was thereby re duced to a still weaker state than before. It is with patio ae add, that serious apprehensions are enter tained for his life.—(Observer.)

THIS DIAMOND NECKLACE, - 7 - A singular instance of good fortune took piece on Wed nesday Int, in the recovery of a diamond necklace, of the value of Sire hundred genese s which had been lost. Un the Monday, Major R. • gentleman of (entree, obese wife is at present resident at Brighton, purchased of Mr. Fear*, of Gottshall, • diamond neckline, which be, the name night, carried with him in his Morocco ease to his lady. Upon being presented to Mrs R. she considered some &Rents** necessary, and on Wednesday morning Major R. returned to tomb, intending, in the coarse of the day, to carry it to Mr. Fear., Previous to his procsediug to the city, Major ft. bad occasion to call upon • respectable Solicitor in Joker street, Adelphi, from whence, after remaining some time, be proceeded towards Cursibill. At this time the diamond necklace, in its case, was deposited, as he conceived, with perfect safety, in an inside pocket of his body coat. The pocket itself was buttered, as Wm the breast of the coat, and over the whole was a great coat likewise closely bus. tonal. Under such preesidions Major R. had no •ppechen. lions of the ingeuious attecks of those inid.day marauders by whom oar oilmen arc infested. As he walked down Fleet street, however, he fell the skirts of both his body sad great coat suddenly raised in a violent manner, either from de sign or by accident. At the moment he was disposed to believe the latter, and he walked on regardless of the nu. cnitastince. A few minutes nficction, however, induced him soddenly to exclaim, " Surely they have nut picked my pocket,"aad so the same moment clapping hishand to the spot where he conceived his diamond necklace had been deposited fu safety, lie found that it was gone from theme. He home. dimly looked round, bat there was nu person near him who attracted his suspicion. Incensed sod mortified at his toes, he scares knew which way to turn ; but at length, with that sort of hope which Kings to • II inns order Monet ens, be resolv ed logo track In the holicituia, in Jolitintreet, to aseerteitt whether by possibility he might not have dropped the vs. luable jeras there. His spent Saloom on this point, however, were as be anticipated, fruitless, sod, as the next prudent step, he went to Bow-street, where be gave information of his less, and requested that the reqmisite steps might be taken to recover the property. He thencootioared his course to Mr. Fenn% shop, in Cornhill,• there to communicate his mischance. it is now necessary to aisle that Mr. Fear., beside his house in Curnhill, has • similar concern at the corner of Adam-street, Adelphi, which Major R. passed both I. going and returning from sheSolleitires. About deem e'en* on the same day a Jew wan observed to pick ups bag narrow morocco case films the pavement in &dea r street, is frost of Mr. &made A. Irish Mamma who wilismied the fact, alive to i tto intermit, Riotously *lmaged and cried, " done-ealtare Mora alike." Moen did not naderstawd, or was not disposed to make the desired division, and deposited the case in hit bosom. Pat, however, was not to be driven from his point, and wising Moses by the collar, insisted upon inspecting the treasure. Moses, whose own curiosity was now excited, determined to gratify the claimant at least with a look, and opening the nee, his eye, sparkled with a - brilliancy scarcely less vivid than the double row of diamonds which were pre. seated to his view. He saw the value of his prior, and was upon the retreat, lint Pat was determined not to dissolve the imaginary partnership so easily. A geutlentsu, who witnessed the latter part of the scene, now interfered, and reammesided, as the property belesigerl to neither, that they should carry it inns Mr. Feara's shop, and there de. posit it in safe custody till the right owner should be discovered. To this Pat emended, and all parties catered the shop. The case was then stated to the shapeup, who at first thought that it was one of those riog.dropposi tricks between the Jew sad the Irishman, su frequently practised to impose upon the minify, of which it was intuited to make the Gentkinso who had interfered In dupe. He therefor* reemswieuded very strongly that the 'calicos. shoold ham minim* to do with it. Resolved to see bow far his suspi• nom were correct, he then opined the case, and, to his to lone sovairin, discovered its contents to be real brilliants ; hangs examined further, and was still more astonished to lid that the necklace bore the private shop mark of his employer. At this time he was is ignorance of the per. ebeee'which had been made by Major R. and of that gentle anales subinqiient loss. A new light was shortly afterwaeds thrown on the subject, by the entrance of another of Mr. Feariesshopmen, who attends to the business at Gambill, and who, un being informed of want bad take* piste, Imbed at the necklace, sod in an imaged recognised it to be that which had been sold to Major R. on the preceding Monday. Moses and his co partner were dismissed, upon • promise dud when the matter was properly clawed up, they should meet with a reward for the nimble they bad had. A messenger was then dispatched tutu the city with the Intelligence, where Majorit. bad the pleasure of being ✓efined fruits all further anxiety. Upon reviewing the whole affair, it would seem that the probabilities of the case urethrae : while Ilse Major was sitting at tbe Juhiintreet, asp ease was shifted from its posi tion• ,' and being forced out of the "pocket, beeame wedged foes time under the what of the body cost.

The Defendant pleaded that the Plaintiff kall committed the first assault ; to which the letter replied, that he had as saulted the Defendant in his own defence ; and that the Defendant wrack him with more violence than wee jusiiaable under the eircunratances. Witnetwes were examined on both sides. The prominent circumstances proved in evidence were these: lu the spring of lest year, the Plaintiff, a painter and glazier by trade—his wife carrying on the bitainem of a milliner—let part of his house, ut Curzon -street, May-fair, furnished, at two hundred guineas a year, to the Defendant, a gentleman of large fortune. in Shropshire. When the first quarter's rent became due, the Defendant complained that certain necessary articles of kitchen furniture had not beets provided by the Plaintiff; eceerding to agreement, but paid the money, saying that he *mild not pay the next quarter until the ano des were provided. On the 17th of July she Defen dant was about fu leave town for a fortnight, and desired his butler to track up souse westing apparel and a few books for the journey, and put them auto the carriage, which was waiting at the door A travel ling hag with other articles was placed in the hall,ee cordingly,and the butler was ordered to put it into the carriage. He was proceeding to do so, when the Plaintiff came into th hall, placed his lack against the street door, and swore that the Defendant should not leave the house until the rent was paid. Before this he had not asked for his money, nor had he provided the kitchen atemils which had been required at the previous quarter; and lie koew that the Defendant had left plate, book., and horn in hi. apartments, of much greater value than the amount of the rent due.

The question here was, first, did the Da. frudants make themselves personally resposis:ble to the Plaintiff ? and if not, did they, or did they no., pay into Court ell the rums they had reeeivrd un der the terms of the deed of trust ? Ott the first ground, no attempt was made to !love any thi:rg like personal responsibility—and, on the second ground, it was tint denied that the Defendants had pull into Court all the stuns they had received.
