The LATE DUEL At CAMARGo. Owe men
toned the other day that aduel had been ioughl
at Camargo between Joshua Wallace Collect
and Alexander Wilkin, which resulted in the
death of the former. The Albany Journal in
alluding TO this event says
"The survivor in this fatal duel, son of
the Hon. MIR. Wikin, ofour Senate, is IA young
man OF excellent character and amlable deport-
meni. His principles, edacution and habits
were such as ought to have exempted him from
conflict so rcpugnant to his feelings. But
in the army there is no escape from this false
code Of honor. Capt. Wl!kn received two
challenges, both of which he accepted. The
first terminated fatally, and the second was
prevented by the arrest of the parties.
