A Modern CinderiIla.

The Salut Public, of Lyons, contains the fol-
lowing strange table, the truth of which it guar
antees
About two months ago, M. de Rhet, gem
tleman of large property in the neighborhood OF
this city-on leaving the theatre after perform
ance of the Etoile du Nord, picked up white
satin shoe On examining it he found that it
must have been made for foot remarkably small
and elegant He asked the box keepers If any
one had announced the loss of the shoe, but was
answered in the negative. He took 1t home with
him. The more he saw il the more he admired
il and he jumped to the conclusion that the
owner having so small foot, was, in all proba-
bity, extremely beautiful. He showed the shoe
to all his friends and acquaintances, and caused
them to make inquiries after the owner. But he
could gain no clue TO her At last il struck him
that as the person who had lost it could not have
walked home, he might gain some information
from the cab drivers. After eight days spent in
inquiry, he found n driver who remembered hav-
ing driven young woman who had lost her shoe
in the Rue Thomassin. M. dc Rhet-th'1eupon
made inquiries at every house in that street and
he at length discovered young work woman
who bushingly confessed that the shoe was hers.
AS he anticipated, he found that she was remark
ably beautiful, and inquiry, he learned that
her character very good He fell in love
with her. and, as his propositions were honorable,
the girl listened TO him. A few days ago they
were married.

The Duel Between Cumming and Me-
DUNE.

Dune.
correspondent Of the Charleston Mercury
gives an account Of the duel between these dis
tinguishcd men, and mentions the circumstance
heretofore unpublished, that reconciliation took
place between them.
They first fought Mt "Sister's Ferry" in
Georgia, where McDuffie was shot in the hip,
and afterwards met on the North Carolina line,
where they adjourned without fighting, on ac-
count of a misunderstanding between the seconds.
The third and last time they met at Campbellton,
on the Savannah river, where McDuffie was shot
in the small of his back and had his left arm
broken, leaving him in n wreched state of mfr
nifty, which kept him lingering invalid all the
rest Of his days. Some time afterwards they were
in Augusta, Ca, at the same time, when
McDuflie's intense sufferings were about TO be
relieved by the dying out of life 3 iickering lamp,
and where ho had gone TO die. Through the in
strumentality Of John Bones, Esq, Cumming was
induced TO visit McDuflic, who in Bones
house. lie told him Of McDufIie's presence
within it, and Of his situation, and frankly said to
him, "Go up by yourself, and be rcconcilcd. |
know that you harbor malice, and that he has
no single feeling Of hostility towards you in his
bosom.' The suggestion was MS frankly adopted
and acted upon. The parties met as II they never
had been enemies Cumming sat an hour with
his PROSTATE rival, left him with the most ami
cable interchange Of feeling, and the tear was in
his eve, ms he said TO Bones on his departure
"What would not do or give TO relieve him from
his cruel sufleringl' II was one which his own
hand had inflicted, and he bitterly regretted the
shot"
