REGAL OF THE SPANISH MINISTER.
The Washington Union states that
Don Caderon de la Barca, who has
represented the government Of Spain
in this country, for many years. will
leave for Madrid in few days, TO en-
ter upon the new duties which have
been assigned to him at home. 1t is
announced that Don Calderon de la
Barca is to take charge of the depart
ment of foreign affairs but We have
seen statement coutradicting this,
he has arrived at the age when, BY the
custom Of the Spanish Government.
he must withdraw from the diplomat
ic service, and be entered upon the
pension list of retired deplomatists.
From the Unions language, however,
we would infer that the first announce
ment is the correct one and if go his
appointment to the department Of for
eign affairs, at this crisis Of SPANS
relation with this country, becomes a
matter of more than ordinary inter
est.

THE GERMAN BENEVOLENT SOCIETY.
Such is the name of society exist
ing somewhere within the limits of
this great city. We have never seen
anything of them, except in one ortwo
parades through the streets, at a
healthy season. We know not what
the object of this Association is, but
shall make enquiries at leasure, to as
certain. It seems to US, that if their OBJ
ject is benevoience, they might at this
period find occupation for it. We
would like to be able to chronicle some
facts with regard to their benevolence,
and would Ike to hear from officers
Of the society Oh this subject.

On Thursday night last, at Mr.. Full
lers' Boarding and Coffee House, un-
der the hill, serious row took place,
the result Of which leaves Thos. Mer-
Ger, Esq, in very critical POSITION
1t seems that German gentleman, in
front Of the bar, had trunk which he
wished to move to the steam boat land
ing, and it was rather heavy for one,
he called on Mercer to assist him. Mer-
Ger declined-some angry words oc-
cured, which brought on an alterca-
ton. When the matter was settled
by the interference Of third parties,
Mercer went off. About bed time, he
returned to the house (where he is
boarding. when he had gone up into
the room, party attacked him, and
before quiet could be established, Mer
Ger received dangerous blow on the
head.
As near as we can lern, this is trus
statement.

ARKANSAS CRYsrAL.--The Littl

ARKANSAS CRYsTAL.--The Little
Rock Wing, Of the 25th ult., says:
We had the pleasure of examining
crystal ofsurprising beauty and size,
brought to this place by our fellow
citizen, Edward Barinds, of Arkadel-
phia, in this State. Not being skilled
in those matters, we will fall for short
Of doing justice to this magnificent
production Of nature. It was found in
Montgomery county, in this State, in
the year 1851, twenty feet below the
surface of the earth. 1t is at its base
% by Is inches; its greatest altitude
is II inches, and weighs 107 pounds.
In its appearance it resembles MINI
ature moatmtain, with its promonto-
ries, cliffs, and caverns, plainly mark
ed. We understand that, by night,
upon examination by the lamp OF
other light, it reflects the brilliancy Of
the diamond. This beautiful specimen
was secured by Mr.. B. at condirable
cost and trouble, and by him forward
ed to the Crystal Palace, New York
| for exhibition.

A Conference.-The proper def
milton of the word compromise" has
never yet been given in any of the
dictionaries. The following matter OF
actual occurance, not only defines the
meaning, but furnishes an apt illustra-
ton. Stubs bought mule Of Dubbs,
for which he agreed to pay him thir-
ty dollars. Stubs has the mule and
Dubbs has Stubs word for the money
Possession in nine points in all the
laws that ever were written. 1t is
therefore clear, that Stubss has the law
on his side. When Dubbs comes tc
Stubs at the time proposed, Stubs
has not the money in full, but he gives
him half the amount and tells him he
will have to take his note and wait fol
the other half until he, Stubs car
get it." If Dubbs murmurs, Stubs
being the largest of the two thrashe:
him into terms, and when Dubbs erie:
enough Flake him off; the mat
ter us compromised" This is the
definition Of the word compromise, il

well as nations.

A duel was fought at O'Clock on
the afternoon of the goth, near Bla-
densburg, between Mr.. Ridway. editor,
and Mr.. Davis, of Lynchburg, Va. 1t
appears that Mr.. Ridgway was the
challenger. He fired. and Mr.. Davis
returned his fire. At this stage of the
combat, Mr.. Ridgway's friends came
forward and expressed themselves sa-
tisfed, to which Mr.. Davis's friends
assented, and the matter was amicably
adjusted. Nh. Davis is said to have
acted nobly and occupies high grounds.
The difficulty, it appears, originated in
consequence of the publication Of a
private letter to Mr.. Davis by Mr.
Ridgway in his paper. Upon this. Mr.
Davis posted Ridgway, and hence the
hostile meeting.
