THE CULPEPER DUEI.-The Union of Sunday makes
the following corrections of statement in the Republic
which was substantially the same with that we copied
yesterday from the Alexandra Gazette to the effect
that Mr. John c. Green and Mr. John S. Barbour ir.,
of Culpeper, Friday arrested in Washington and
bound over. in the eff S. 0O0 to keep the peace in
che District and to leave for the purpose of fighting
duel
" An article appeared in the Republic of yesterday
respecting personal difficulty between Messrs. Green
and Barbour, OF Culpeper county, Virginia. in which
several errors Mr.. John c. Green is not can
ddate in Cupepel, although he is relative of
Mr. Jones Green, Mr.. Barbour's opponent. Mr.. John
SBarbour, r. was not arrested. Mr. James Barbour
was arrested shortly after reaching the city, and the
authorizes, belevemg that one OF the parties had been
arrested, were lulied for about hour-Mr. James
Barbour permitting them to believe that he par
ty in the affair." IN the hope that the real rites would
elude search. Mr.. Green, however, was subse quent
ly arrested Mr.. John S. Barbour, jr, succeeded in
evading attention, and only left the city yesterday
morning after being advised that Mr.. Green had been
bound over"
We Judge from this, that Mr. John c. Green and
Mr.. Jno. S. Barbour jr, the real parties in the
contemplated duel though the Enquirer presumes Mr.
Barbours brother and not himself to be the Mr. Barbour
concerned Mr.. Jno. S. Barbour and Mr. Jones
Green are the rival candidates for Culpeper county
