THOMAS G.. PRETTYMAN,
Has lately patented, and is now manufacturing
a SPRING SAD DIE,


Nch superior to ana that hare hitherto been offered to
the Public
This Improvement consists III the suspension OF the
whole seat by two springs, similar to a gig spring,
which being screwed the back part OF the cane OF
thesadde, receives iron bar, forming the sweep or
the cantle thus preserving from receiving any injury
by horse rolling in the saddle and making the saddle
tree more firm than it would otherwise be, which can
not fail to give ease both horse and rdera frame al
so enters the back the cante calculated to raise the
Valce or Portmateau and keep entirely clear OF the
horses back-ths can be put on or removed In a mo-
ment Gentlemen DESTROYS OF further explanation are
invited to call at the store and examine the model
Persons out of the District wishing to purchase the pa
tent right will be dealt with on liberal terms appl
cation as above.
In order to prove to the public the superiority of
these saddles they have given aew extracts of letters
from those who have them in use-amonS whom is the
late President of the United States

ed Tor a few weeks past, amongst some of our po-
litical men, and whilst that difference remained un-
settled, we thought it improper to take notice oil
the subject in any way. Believing however that
no Misunderstanding now exist, we have thought
that some good might result from an impartial state
ment of few leading facts.
From sudden alteration which took placs
about three weeks ago in this town between Gems
Houston and White, it seems that the latter chal-
lenged the former to single combat, and that the
challenge was accepted. They were compelled by
AN interposition OF :be civil authorities to transfer
the scene OF operations beyond the kentucky line,
ard the meeting took place on Thursday morning
last about sunrise. At the first fire Gen. Housion's
aim took effect, striking little below the right
shoulder blade and passing round and lodging on
the opposite side, from which it was easily extract
ed; strong hopes are entertained that the wound
VIII not prove fatal, and the parties separated on
the ground with evidences of the kndest feelings
and perfect reconciliation Gen. Whites fire did
not take effect, as the discharge did not take place
until probably extracted by the fire of the other
pistol.
We make this statement with some reluctance
but from an imperious sense of duty. In cases oil
this description, generally, Misrepresentation and
alse colourings get abroad, and sometimes lead to
further difficulty. We are unwilling as any in
the community to give eclst to the actors in such
scenes, but when the evil has occurred, there may
be more good done by publicity in respectable
way, han by permitting error to pass on without
detection. The conduct of the parties on the
ground was dignifed, fair and honorable
Republican.
