rSFoRTrSArE OCCURRENCE. An AFFAIR oc.
CURED last evening, almost attended with fatal
result, which Is the talk of the city this morn
ing some Of the circumstances of which we will
give as they have been related to us:
while Clarke Mills, the artist, was at Pation's
barber sshop, astevening, waiting to be shay ID
Col. Mitchell, of Minnesota, in an excited state,
came In, and very Familiarity addressed the
gentleman in the chair but rs soon as he dis.
covered that he was not an acquaintance,
apologised, and his apology was accepted
When the gentleman left the shop, Mr.. Mills
took his place to be shaved. Col. M. then
accosted Mr.. Mills in the same familiar man
ner. insulting him by putting his hand on his
face, rubbing his chin, and using expressions
anything but becoming even when said nlay-
fully between friends. An apology was then
offered by Col. M for his conduct and ao.
copied by Mr. Mills, and Col M. took = seat
In a minute or two, however, Col. n. advanced
70 or. Mills, and when told by the barber to
ses down' refused, saying that he would have
satisfaction. Hard words passed betwea, .bo
parties. MIR. Mills telling Col. NJ. that if he
aid not desist he would give him satisfaction.
C2i- NJ SAID he would cpt his throat, and used
other expressions Of an offensive character:
"nereupon Mr.. Mills rose from his chair
seized the stool upon which lis feet rested. and
struck Col NJ. twice, cutting his head seriously.
which at nrst was supposed would cause his
death. The wound, however, we are glad 10

which Col NJ. will probably soon recover.

DISCOURSE TO YoUNG LADIEs-0n Sunday
evening last, a very interesting lecture was de-
hvered by the Rev Mr. Brooks, of Boston,
addressed u young ladies, in which be<gave
them much solid and practical good counsel,
condensed into a discourse Of thirty-fve
minutes duration. He spoke Of their health,
education, conduct, sphere prospects and in
nuence, and laid down system OF rules TOP
becoming good talker and q proper nurse OF
the sick; but the Invaluable part of the adj
dress was that which pertained to the marriage
between near blood relatives, especially first
cousins. LII seems that this gentleman has
bestowed much study on this last point, and
has visited islands where intermarriages be
tween relatives are common, and the results
tnat follow are most important to the pros
perty and happiness of society. To use his
words: . Second cousins had better not marry
together, but first cousins, never, never; Tor
suffering. disappointment, and laortihcation,

he owns one half the Washington Union and
its profits of the public printing-he owns one
half the Philadelphia Pennsylranian, and one
half the Erening Star, at Washington, and
manages them all. The Washington Union, as
