That DuEL.-We stated q few days
ago that John Tyler jr., and Hugh r.
Peasants, junior editor of the Richmond
Wing, had gone into North Carolina for
the purpose Of fighting duel. ltappears
that the day and hour were appointed, and
the Portsmouth lndex says Tyler duly ar
rived on the ground with his second, and
after waiting a considerable time for his
adversary, was abou. preparing 10 retire,
when a messenger arrived stating that
Mr.. Peasants was at the house OF Mrs.
Dupree, about twelve miles off, "roarlng
crazy with the mania a pOtu;" and that
as he had not been aware of the time
agreed on by his second, he, the second;
would meet Mr.. Tyler if he would wait;
Mr.. Tyler, however, being satisfied thai
he had fulfilled his part of the contract,
Immediately returned TO Washington.

PROPOSITION.

We call the attention of
the Democrats OF TINS and
the adjoining counties 40
this proposition.
WE propose publishing the Indepen-
dent Democrat for the low price of One
Dollar from the lst of May until the 18th
of November, being sufficient time 10
give full settlement Of the vote upon the
Presidential Election. We hope that our
present subscribers will make this fact
known to those of their friends who wish
70 take paper during the present can
yass. The present session of congress is
one OF much interest. The settlement Of
the tariff question, and the important ne
notiations which will be shortly entered
INTO concerning Oregon and Texas, are
matters about which the public will wish
the earliest and most correct Information.
ernmcnt for a long period to come, il will
determine whether the country is to con-
tinue TO suffer under the blightng opera
ton of a protective tariff and corrupting
paper system, or enjoy the benefits OF free
trade q sound currency. In view ofthesc
things, we hope our Democratic friends in
this and the adjoining coutics will assist
US in extending our circulation.

THE SUPPRESSED LETTER OF
MR.. CLAY.

On the sth Of January, 1925, Mr.. Clay
is charged to have written letter to f.
P. Blair, then an intimate and confidential
friend of Mr.. Clay. In that letter is the
evidence conclusive of the bargain be.
tween Messrs. Adams and Clay. In a
late speech in Congress, Col. Lynn Boyd
proposed to Mr.. White, friend of Mr.
Clay, that they should address joint let.
ter to MIR. Clay, asking him 10 permit the
letter to be published. Mr.. Blair still has
the letter, but cannot publish it, because il
is marked 'confdential." Why will not
Mr.. Clay agree that it be published? His
friends lately called on General Jackson
to permit General Hamilton to publish one
of his confidential letters: Gen. Jackson
responded, and gave him leave to publish
it. Now, when Mr.. Clay is called upon
to let Mr.. Blair publish his confidential
letter. he refuses. Why? For the very
best of reasons--IT WILL PROVE HIM
GUILTY! Nash. Union.
