supporters Of The EMPIRE tells cap.
i,al story, as he heard il; related by the
celebrated General Excelmans, one Of
Napolcon's "Paladins." g.
1t was at a dinner party composed Of
some of the survivors Of Waterloo, a few
of their young relatives. and the sci ion
Of an ex.king on visit from his home in
America, and to whom the gentleman ow.

mentioned. Some questions arose about
bravery, when the younger members Of
the company were electrified to hear the
venerable and heroic Excelmans grave.
y and seriously declare:
"Men are all cowards in the dark 2"
The General smiled at their expression OF
dissent remarked that it was avery like
youth :" and proceeded to relate the fol.
lowing anecdote, in support ofhis strange
| declaration
There was young hot head in the
Empires service, who, burning for &c.
ton, and duties for the time afording no
opportunity, at last resolved to fight a
duel accordingly, choosing TO construe
some remark or other Of an older and
superior officer into an insult, he chal.
lenged him. The old soldier, waving all
considerations Of rank, agreed to meet
the yong man. but on the following un.
| usual terms The time should DO night,
the place room--:n opposite corners
Of which they were to stand. The sec.
onds, having placed their men, went to
withdraw outside the door, taking the
candles wih them. The word should
be given from without, when he who had
the first fire should discharge his weapon
and thc'seconds having 6 the light should
Immediately rush in.
These strange conditions were accept
cd the time arrived 4; and the seconds
placed the parties asi agreed upon-with
drawing Immediately, and leaving thei
men 10 the dark.
The word givcn--the FIRE was heart
the door was re. re.opened-and there stoo
the elder Of the two bolt upright in tn
corner, his adversary's ball having en-
tered the wall so close to his head hi
escape seemed little less than miracu
lous
1t was now the old soldiers turn to fir
They were again in the dark the wor
was again given from the outside an

seconds rushed in 10 find the chalIen e

the ball, which, on examination, it We
. found must have killed him !! 49,
The young man was covered with cor
,, fusion, and the seconds were overwheln
ing him with tho expression OF their scol
, when the veteran stopped them:
s "Not so fas f! not SO fast you your
I friends" said he "you will live 10 gro

(S5- The Journal Of Commerce says the aggre-
gate losses by the calamitous fires that have TAX
en- place in New York within the last few weeks,
exceeds four millions OF dollars. The Journal
thinks the last fire the work of an incendiary.
1t adds: ''The most remarkable connected with
this disastrous fire, grows out OF the fact that
threats were freely made, previous to Gavazzi's
last lecture, on Thursday night, that if he were
permitted to speak again in that building, it would
be burnt; and we are informed, on the best au-
thority, that an individual was seen to run from
the Hall short time before the fire broke out,
and that, in all probability the wretch will be
brought to punishment"
