From The Louisrill, .J,,,ynoI

The fellow Fall, DR.. Hasan's substitute as
editor OF the NicksburC Sentinel, has again dis
graced himself by his miserable cowatdice funded
after his affair with MIR Robins, further disgrace
was possible.
\ few days ago, ne went into the bar-room Of
the Gldewe!l House, in Vicksburg, where Mr.
Milllken and several other gentlemen were in
conversation ard. getting behind MIR NJ, called on
him aloud by name. MIR. NJ. turned and, as he
did SO, Fall presented couple OF large cooked pis-
tols at him and called him coward and SOUNDED.
"Do you mean 10 assassinaie me ?" said Mr. MILL
Kun. "Gou are 4 coward and scoundrel," reitera-
ted Fall. Give me one OF your pistols, and then
call me a coward, # you dare" said Millikeu. To
this, Fall made no reply, but continued to pom,
and brandt his ps'ols. Mlhksn repeated his re-
ques, several times, but with no better success At
length MlIhken said, "f you will not let me have
one Of your pistols, 10y them down and retain your
big cudge and will whale you like d 2. Fail
replied Il will not do IT." and, pointing his ri
tolls, he added, with herce stamp OF his foot "you
know am DANCE Gus man." At that moment
MIR PoindeXter announced to Mr. Milliken TINT
there was IA shotgun IN the rext room. MIR NJ.
ran into the room after IL. and returned in two or
three seconds, calling to Fall, who had commenced
walking rapidly nway, "stcp, sir stopl" Fall
qu'ckened his pace, and Milllken pursued him, still
calling stop stop!" Fall made haste to turn the
hfs, corner Of the street, and, when Nken reached
the corner Fall running at the top Of his speed
Milken snspped both barrels OF MS gun al the fu-
gitVe, but neither of them went off, and OF course
the scsmpeung scnmp escn ped.
After this, Mil ken returned home, reloaded his
gun and pnt = couple Of pistols IN his pocket and
learning th,t FIJI was again ntthe iJewell House
W nh a big wager upon his shoulder. he walked 10
wards tho tavern tll he within about fifty yards
of Il md called 20 his man. "come out, Fall come
ou.!" Thereupon, the crowd IN the tavern rushed
from around Fall, excl,imng; "Milhken il in the
street," hut Fall did make his appearance. As the
crowd rushed ou', gun he,rd in the tavern
and Il afterwards found th,t Fall n the height
Of his fear and trepidniion, had fired of his yngcr
through he ceiling. He then fed through a back
do0r, md nothing more WIS seen o. him, although
Miiiken rsm1ined half an hour IN tn street.
Both parties were subsequently, arrested and
tried, before Judge Collier for breach OF the peace
md oil the facts of the case, stated above, were
sworn 10 by various witnesses.
