GT Two foreigners, who were passengers
a few days ago, on a St. Louis and New Or
leans Boat, got into a warm political discus
sion, when some offensive words escaped one
of the parties, that elected challenge from
the other, that was accepted, and arrangements
made to fight with pistols at fifteen paces.-
This mode was afterwards changed at the So
licitation of their fellow passengers, and at
the particular request Of the Ladies, to swords.
On arrival at Memphis, the combatants, with
a party of the passengers, including the ladies
resorted to secluded spot in the suburbs and
fought valiantly and desperately for the amuse-
ment of the crowd for some time, till one OF
them had received two severe wounds in the
face and head, which brought him to the
ground, when he acknowledged himself beat
The parties made friends, returned to the Boat,
and the victor made a speech in fauuor of Du-
elling to which the vanquished would have
replied, in CON- but his mouth was closed by a
bandage. -.... .f.

Gov. W1LLARD.-Gov. Willard, of Indiana,
if we are correctly informed. stated in his
speech at Lexington, two or three days ago.
that ''the leaders of the Fillmore party in his
own State, associated and affiliated with the
free negroes of that State.'' The scandalous
remark was unworthy of Governor elect and
unworthy Of a gentleman. We know the
! chief Fillmore leaders in Indiana, and We do
not believe that Gov. w. has respectable adj
mirer in the world who will pretend that his
Excellency elect is their superior in social po-
sition.
We have the kindest feelings towards Mr..
Willard, but when man so far forgets the pro-
prieties, the moraties, and the decencies of life,
as to proclaim in public speeches, that highly
respectable party leaders, with whom he him
Iself might delight to associate, are the person.
al associates of free negroes and that the lib
ierties of our country cannot be preserved
unless the three hundred and fifty thousand
foreigners in our midst do the work for US, he
deserves the indignant and scornful rebuke of
an outraged people Lou. Jour. '5 81 E-1ea

NORTH OF THE NATIONAL RoAD.-We had
great deal of boasting before the election of
the 10000 or $4,000 majority which Morton
was to receive in the counties North of the
National Road, In the Districts where there
were no Fillmore men to betray the Republi-
cans. The official returns show how grossly
the friends of Morton deceived themselves, and
others. In 1854 those counties were carried
for the opposition ticket by a majority of
14,170. At the recent election, the Morton
ticket has beggarly majority of 4,973 only
If the Republicans had fulfilled their promises
and the reasonable expectations of their friends
in that part of the State, our heads would now
not be bowed in shame at the mortifying defeat
ofour allies. The gain for the Democracy was as
great obove the National Road as south of it.
we honestly believe, that if the Fillmore men
in the Nothern counties had not sustained the
State ticket, Morton would have come South
with large majority against him.

MORE PAUPERs AND CoNvIcTs FROM EU-
ROPE The late English papers state that sew
enty five paupers from the village Of Ennis,
in Ireland, have been embarked for Australia
and America. In letter of the Berlin cor
respondent Of the London Times, dated Sep
tember 24d, is given an account of the mar
riage ceremonies of the Grand Duke of Baden,
who, on that joyous occasion. pardoned a
number of criminals, some of whom are gra-
ciously permitted" to make America their
future home. We quote the following extract
from the letter:
Twenty-six persons, under punishment or
Imprisonment for various misdemeanors, are
entirely pardoned, and four "conyicts' con-
demned, some to imprisonment for life, others
for twenty years, have received permission to
emigrate to America. Among the 26 persons
mentioned above are to be found all who had
been committed for political offences.
