In afecent issue, the 81. Louis Herald
publishes the resolutions Of the Chester
fIllinois) Masonic Lodge, expelling one
DR.. William A. Gordon, for gross, inn
moral, unfnasonic, unprofessional and un-
gentlemanly conduct,
The history of the case presents one Of
the most dabofical acts of yillainy eYef
perpetrated In civilized cornmunity.--
The following particularsare derived from
a gentleman who has long been intimate
with tile parties.
This Iordon graduated at one Of the
medical schools in this city, and removed
10 Chester some years ago, and there went
into the practice with DR.. Ferris. He has
an amiable wife and several children
From some cause, the son of DIR. Ferris
=disliked Gordon, and they remained enc
mics until the, death Of Dir. Ferris. Cor
don then made friends with young Ferris,
and became intimate with beautiful
young lady to whom he (young Ferris
was engaged 10 be married Ferris re-
moved to Cincinnati, and during his alb.
sence Gordon used every art in his power
TO seduce Tire young girl; but failing in
his hellish designs, he administered Ger
tain drugs, and thus tfiumphed over her
virtue. By threats Of exposure he forced
her to continue the criminal connection,
and received from her letters acknowledge
ing her guilt. .-.>.>~ IT..
A short tim ago, Ferris returned to
Chester, and thinking his betrothed still
innocent married her. Gordon-Rho had
really lever forgiven Ferris the injuries of
the past-plaeed package of his wife's
letters in his way, which told the whole
story of her crime His first thought was
to take the life Of the destroyer Of his
pence, but not meeting him, and reflect
ing that his wife might be equally guilty,
he left the village, and has,neyer returned.
The excitement growing out Of the affair
was. intense, and the Masons promptly ex-
PEELED Gordon from their Lodge. The
case is one in which tho. severest penal
ties of lynch law would be unsuitable. and
we sincerely hope that the brutal tiend
will get his deserts. There is no other
law 70 reach him, and he should be hung,
without judge ortjury, to the highest limb
on Chester Bluff The ruined wife and
her destroyer remain in the same town !
she an object of pity and commiseration,
he hated and condemned by all who know
him. HeIis known in this city, but we
advise him to kee p away--he may not fare
SO well here. There is no punishment
too severe for such black-hearted mis-
creant.l ~ T. - = II

The unmitigated seorn, loathing and
contempt Of every honorable, law abiding
citizen, should rest and abide with that
protested minister Of God who leads on the
hue and cry against church that differs

God as he pleases, or mol not Worship him

would tramplc the conscience orcheck the

DoS'r DO ir.--Nevet make use of an
honest woman name in animproper place,
at an improper time OF in mixed compa-
NY. Never make assertions about her that
you think untrue, allusions that you feel
she herself would blush TO hear. When
you meet with men who do not scruple to
make use Of woman's name in reck-
less manner, shun them, for they are the
very worst members Of the community
men lost 10 every sense Of honor, every
feeling of humanity. - H.

The Duel Between Cumming and MrDuffie.

A. correspondent of the Charleston MUIR
curry gives an account.of the duel between
these distinguished men and mentions the
circumstances her etofore unpublished, that
areconciliation took place between them !:
q They first fought in Sisters Ferry"
in Georgia. where McDufie was shot in the
hip. and afterwards met on the North
Carolina line, where they adjourned with
out fighting, on account of a misunder-
standing between the seconds. The third
and last time they met at Campbell on the
Savannah River, where McDutfie was shot
in the small ofhs back and had his left arm
broken, leaving him in wretched state of
infrmity, which kept him a lingering in
valid all the rest Of his days. Some time
afterwards they were in Augusta, Georgia,
at the same time when McDuffie's intense
suferings were about to be relieved by the
dying out Of life's ffickering lamp, and
where he had gone to die. Through the
instrumentality Of John Bones, Esq, Cum
ming was induced to visit Nc Duffie, who
was in Bones house He told him Of Nc
Duffie'spresencc, within it, and Of his sit
uation, and frankly said to him, go up
yourself and be reconeiled, ! know that
you harbor no malate, and that he has no
single feeling Of hostility towards You in
his bosom" The suggestion was frankly
adopted and acted upon. The parties met
as il theyneyer had been enemies. Cum
ming sat m hour:withhis Frustrated rival,
loft him with the mostamicable interchange
Of feeling, and the tear was IN his eye, as
he said TO Bones on bis departure: "What
would not give to relieve him from his
cruel suffering" II was one which his
own hand inflicted, and he bitterly regret
ted the shot. =: >. 4 II, <. ! - So. i.
