A RlOOdleSs DueJ.

duel was fought at Pittsburgh on Fri
day evening, the parties being w God street
merchant and steamboat Captain between
whom difficulty occurred while engaged in
a game of billiards. A challenge passed and
was accepted. The Post of Monday gives
the conclusion of the affair as follows:
The appointed hour beheld the two antag
onists standing ten PAGES apart, in their shir,
sleeves, pistols in hand. At the words " one
two. three, turn and fire." they wheeled
around and fired together, but neither fell
The pistols were then reloaded, the word
again given, and the parties fired. This time
the fire was more decisive, for the steamboat
captain was seen to stagger and fall back.

The merchant stepped towards him, and
seeing the blood streaming down, sought
safety in flight. He seized bis garments and
made for the fence, but was intercepted BY
a spectator. He then went back TO the fatal
spot, aud with his second. drove rapidly to
town.
1t is said that he wished to leave the CITY,
but was prevailed upon by some of his friends
to 60 to the Mayors Office and give himself
up, but he did not find the Mayor at his of.
flee. He expressed penitence for thu act,
and it was not until Saturday morning that
he was informed that he had been hoaxed
that She pistols were loaded without "cold
lead" and that the blood was only red flu-
i'd prepared for the occasion.
Tie matter had been arranged by the Sec
Onds and the captain, and in accordance with
the programme, he fell to the earth. leading
his adversary to believe that he had killed
him. The merchant was not the only party
sold two or three spectators left the ground
with powerful impression that man had
been killed, and gentlemen of this city went

Ridiculous.

We see by the proceedings of the Old
Settlers Association, that Mr.. Chairman
SIBLEY appointed EARL s. GooDR1cH. editor
of the Pioneer, Corresponding Secretary of
the Association. We had supposed Judge
Goodrich, who would have been the very
man of all men, was really intended ; but are
assured, it is the noble EARL himself. Mr..
SHELLEY ought to know better than this-to
appoint as Corresponding Secretary of an
Association confined by charter to settlers
prior to 1850, one whose advent into the
Territory dates only from the spring of 1854.
A man who is setting up for bogus Gov
ernor, ought to know more than this. The
EARL is we'll enougL-but it isn't according
TO law nor gunier for him to be appointed, or

The Times Of Sun lay, "exslteth the born"
greatly, with much wind, of Mr.. BATES, of
Minneapolis, who has signalised himself in
the Senate by his devoted care of the inter-
ests Of the Railroad companies, and not so
great care of the interests of the people At
large, to say nothing Of the future Of the Re-
publican party. 1t takes occasion, at the
same time, to depreciate Mr.. D. T. SMITH,
the other Minneapolis Senator, who yielded
reluctantly, but as we think mistakingly, to
the clamor of his immediate neighbors OF Min
neapolis, and voted for the bill, against his
better judgment, under protest. The occa-
sion for tho Times intermeldling in this local
squabble between the friends of two worthy
men, is an article in the St. Anthony News,
commenting with truth Mr.. SMITHS devo-
ton generslIy to the interests, real or sup
ped, Of his immediate constituents of Mime
apolis, and of the State generally. The
Times takes the alarm, and with characteris-
tic littleness, acts as if this was reflection
on Senator BATES in particular and in an
article in which nonsense strives with bad
grammar for the ascendency lectures the
Nesos for "drawing invidious distinctions,
while committing that offence itself. Our small
contemporary, and Mr.. BATES Also we think.
might have been content to let the .N;ews puff
MIR. SMITH, as long as the Minneapolis Gazette
was free to puff his colleague, which it does
with large blower power in the last number
OF that paper. But the Tinpan could not let
Mr.. Smith pass without giving him a dig
for did he not have the effrontery and hardi-
hoodtodiffer from the little Times on this Rail
road question, and must he not be ''crushed, -
even thCdgh he at last voted for the bill p
Yea, verify!
But, if this is the game of the editor or
Mr. BATES, we claim to take full hand in it..
The latter gentleman was one of the Senate
Committee that endorsed the bill, as con-
tanning ample security to the State, when it
is transparent that the entire pretence of Sc
curity in it is disgraceful dodge, disreputa.
BILE to all concerned in getting it up. We
remember, if Mr.. Bates forgets, that when
Mr.. SMITH moved an amendment 10 further

ORANGES, by inserting after the word convey

Etten opposed it, and between them fixed
