MELANCHOLY EVENT.
Alexandria Gazette Office,
SATURDAY. Feb. 6-I p.

Saturday FEB. Cd Il. NJ. }
I, has become our painful duty 10 an
nOunce that general A. t. MASON, of
Virginia, is no more. He this morning
fell in duel with j. M. McCARTY esq.
The parties met at Bladensbnrg, Mary
land, at 10 A. Nj. with marine muskets,
and fought at the distance of ten PAGES.
Gen. Mason received MIR. McCariy's fire
in the heart, and instantly expired. The
latter was wounded in the arm, but not
severely. Mr.. McCarty, accompaniedb by
his friend, arrived in town at i2 o'clock.
The sensation produced among our ciii-
zens, at this truly lieart-rending inte!li-
geDce, has never been equalled /: and a.
mOng the variety of rumOurs it is impOs-
sible to obtain all the circumstances cor
rectly.
The Washington City Gazette states,
the muskets contained three balls each, and
that the distance was only sir paces. The
generals remains were conveyed from
Bladehsbu.g 10 George Town and lodg-
ed at gen. John p. Mason's. The deceas-
ed has left wife and child TO deplore his
untimely end.
DIED In the vicinity of BiadeHsburg, on
Saturday morning, General ARMIsrEAD u.
MASON, of Loudoun COunty,Va. aged about
SO years. He iras Killed in a Duel fought uith
muskets, at short distance: at the first dis
charge he fell and his antagonist was wounded.
Thus has Virginia lost one of her most esteem
ed sons. He has been, already, for a time
her Representative in the Senate Of the Uni
ted States and /, has beeD said, would have
been the next Governor of the State. A be-
yeaved mother, wife, and child, and large
circle of affeciionate relatives. are plunged by
this sad event, in deep and inconsoable Attic
tion.
Of the origin aud circumstances of this
combat. we shall not speak. We deplore the
occasion which has made it necessary for us
even so far to notice the occurrence OF Duel.
