E. MAGRATH, Esq.

In pursuance of the above correspondence. and by the arrangement of the respective friends named III It, the parties met near the city on Monday, the 29th inst, at half past o'clock, r. NJ. On the field, MT. Jas. Conner acted for Mr. Magrath, and Col. John Cunningham for Mr. Iaoer. Alter an exchange of shots be. tween the principals, without effect and their acting friends being unable to agree upon terms of adjustment, forthwith second exchange of shots took place, without effect. An earnest conference between the seconds then ensued looking to an adjustment. They being unable to agree, Dr. Bellinger asked leave to intervene as disnterested gentleman. His suggestions . were at once respectfully received. After much discussion and negotiation, in which disagree ment still prevailed, Col Cunningham offered in writing the following settlement:
 The following are the terms of adjustment between Mir. E. Magrath and w. R. Taber, ir, after an exchange of two shots:
 Mir. Taber dsclams, as an editor of the Mercury, that in publishing the articles signed "A Nulliier," he intended any attack upon the private character of Judge A. G. Ma grath."
 "Mr. Edward Magrath disclaims that in his note of challenge to Mir. Taber, he designed to use offensive and derogatory language to him."
 Mr. Conner assented to their adoption if the following would be admitted in addition: "That Mr. Taber regrets the publication in the Mer- cury of whatever in those articles is personal" Also, Mir. Magrath regrets any thing in the cartel that is offensive"
 Col. Cunningham declined the additional acquisition upon Mr. Taber, whereupon third exchange of shots ensued. Mr. Taber fell, mortally wounded in the upper part of the head.

From the Charleston Mercury. The Affair of Honor between E. Magrath, Esq, and Wrn. R. Taber,

The undersigned deem 1t their duty to lay before the community, through the press of the city, with a view to just understanding of the late hostile difficulty between Mr. Edward Ma grath and Mir. William R. Taber, ir, the follow ing correspondence and statement:
 The annexed communication was handed to Mr. Taber on Saturday afternoon, the 27th in- stant, MT. James Connor, who bore it, not hav- ing met him the day previous:
 36 BROAD STREET, Sept. 26 1856 To John Heart Esq, and W. R. 1aber, Jr.,
 Esq, Editors Charleston Mercury:
 GENTLEMEN: ' ou have, after repeated threat enings and with deliberation, published and cir culated insulting and lbelous attacks upon my brother, Judge Magrath. To effect this, you have put aside the habltual propriety of Char ieston newspaper; and, diSregarding the taste ana sentiment of the community, have emulat- ed the corruption and icentiousness of A yepal press elsewhere
 1ou nave done this without provocation, or the excuse of excitement and in the face of re- lations with Judge Magrath, proving upon both of you personal estimates of him in private ex actly the reverse of those you have endorsed and published. Herein is the proof of yonr de- inquency, either in your private intercourse or ill your public conduct. You have, it is true. attempted to lnterpose the protection and veil Of an anonymous correspondents; this could not serve you in any event. In your seeming anx- lety to secure 1t, you have by an apologetic pa ragraph, Tn your names as editors, endorsed the libel. 1 am thus relieved of all question as to whom should address myself You knew, in attacking one exercising judicial functions that, as to him, you would be exempt from the per sonal accountability l claim at your hands You will not doubt my right to do so. How far your supposed security may have sharpened the malice and stimulated the auaacitv of the attack, will not now surmse, because the in- tent of this communication is to afford you the opportunity of proving whether you did or did not calculate upon such immunity, and to de- mand the satisfaction recognized in such cases
 l invite you severally to a meeting, and re- fer you for the necessary arrangements, to my friend James Conuor, esq, who will hand you this
 am, your obedient servant,

Chdrleston, Sept. P. 1856.


 SIR have received by the hands of Mr. Connor, your note of the 26th inst. I repel your assertion that 1 have made repeated threatenings'' to publish and circulate "insut- ing and libellous attacks upon" your brother Judge Magrath,' and deny that the Mercury has ' endorsed" the publications made. It has, on the contrary, simultaneously with the pub llcatlon of these articles, protered its columns for reply.
 Before 1 take notice of the simple personal aspects of your note to myself, l have word to say, touching its bearings to me, as the con- ductor of public press, its relation to Judge Magrath, and the party who has given the cause oi offence, for which you ask revenge- ou are an intruder and you intrude to con- mt an outrage upon the liberty of the press Either through malice or from calculation. you turn aside from the avOwed responsible author of the dlsqulslton upon the merits of your brother as candidate, to the conductors of pubic journal, who would give a chance of truth, and to the discussion of the quaIfica- tions and character of candidates for the high est public trusts. You assume to represent the honor and manhood of your brother, an avow- ed candidate for the highest office in our gift and by your interference, to reduce his honor and manhood to vicarious existence. I do not admit that, when a candidate by his own consent he can avoid the proper, necessary re- responsibilities of his position as candidate. If Judge, he is no less candidate He cannot legitimately put his character in commission, and maintain his honor by proxy He can re- sign 1t, Of necessary) to vindicate his honor- lie has no right to be a candidate, if he is to cease to be man. The shelter of his Judge ship is without the countenance of principle. It is a refuge without manhood and without character. But truth shall not be muzzled though he be Judge, and the "hberty of the press' shall be maintained even against the vlcarlous champions of his manhood and the intrusive representatives of his honor Thus much for your warrant to insult me, and to represent your brother But you have in- suited me, and you shall not do so with impu- nity.
 Protesting, therefore, against your right to call upon me, either as man or editor, your right to assume your brothers proper responsibility, your attempt to sttle by the pistol the freedom of discussion, nevertheless waive all this, and consent to meet you. My friend, MT. Burnet, Will make the necessary arrangements
 Your obedient servant,
