it seems surprising to many pro
pie that no means have been found
for purring an end to dm Is.
The absurdity of the custom has
been illustrated a thousand ways
without effect

" You have given me the lie. Sir.
I could easily prove, indeed, that 1

to the purpose 1 will not take rhie i
trouble : but what I do insist upon |
is. that you shall, by wav of reparati- :
on, do your utmost to shoot me j
through the head. What can ht •
more absuib than all this ? Nothin?.

But it is not a fair statement of the
case* The following seems neartr
the truth,
" Sir. you have insulted me in
such a manner, as will m ;ke the
world think meanly of me if l do

Though I despise both you and the
insult, i cannot regulate the opinion
of the world ; but I will show that I

at ÿour risk, who have put me under
ihe necessity."
No severity of law can prepent
those from challenging their insult
to whom the shame of bearing an
cr,
insult appears more dreadful than the
Accor
tmost vengeance of law.
u
dingly the severest laws have not sup
pressed the practice of duelling.
But if a court were ins»i tied for
of invi sligating
the express purpose
the circumstances which rave rise to
every duel, with power to punish
him "who, from wantonness, pride,
or malignity, had, to the com.61 1 -u
ol the court, behaved in such a man
would justify a gentleman

perhaps such an institution would
have a more powerful effcét in pre
venting duels, than attaching the pun
ishment to the challenger, er survi
w
vor, who possibly may be the leasf
guilty.
If such an institution did not en
tirely abolish the- praëlicc of duelling,
it would assuredly render it less fre
quent.
It would also render men more
cautious of giving offence, and would

FRENCH POLITENESS.
When Montaigne was dead his
adapted daughter turned that admi
ration which was now disci.gag
ed, upon the Marquis de Rue an with
whom she yet was acquainted only
bv his works. Having a great do
sire of personal!) know ing a poet who
had so much merit of his ov n and so
much candor in praising th ;t of oth
er people, she negketed no means
of procuring him to pay her a visit.
The day and hour was fixed for this
call, and two friends of ihe poet who
had been into- ined of ihe appointment,
seized this opportunity for affording
themselves a little sport. One of
those gentleman knocked at the door
an hour or two before the appointed
time, and sent up the name of M.
De Rattan. Mademoiselle de Gour
nac received him in die warmest
manner ; he talked, of the works
which she had published, and which
he had ban studying in order the

left, the lady to congratulate Ivrself
on having conversed with Racan.
He was scarcely gone, when the ser

was coming up stairs to say some
thing that he had forgotten and was
preparing to pay him some compli
