 The Lase Duei.--The duel, which was fought few weeks since. n the neighbOrhood of Philadelphia Navy, insanlan eousy killed William Miller, Esq, a young lawyer ot that city, of great promise, and who reluctantly engaged in the sa! transaction, has exci. ted much, and deserved indignation throughout the community. The legislature of Pennsylvania by . public vote requested the President Of the United States to strike the names of Mir. Hunter and his companions from the register of the Navy. We are happy to learn that before the knowledge of this vote reached the President he had determined upon the course recommended. The following are the oficia documents:
