FATAL NEGRO DUEL.-Among the incidents that
occurred in and about the Sanes on Christmas day
was fatal negro duel. 1t was rather bungling
affair. The preliminary arrangements appear not
to have been according to the provisions laid down
In the Code of Honor. We do not understand the
parties felt any particular stain upon their honor
which they desired to wipe out by the fashionable
appeal to the dello The affair seems to have been
kind of trial, or practice, preparatory to a real
duel. But so it was, they stood off at measured
distance and shot at each other with muskets loaded
with blank cartridges In the excitement one of the
combatants, in drawing the ramrod left the but
ton or head in the gum and the result was he killed
his opponent by shooting him through the breast
The negro shot was free, the other was slave
These are the facts in the case as reported to u.s.

The Company have decided to limit the price OF
their Guano to $50 per ton, 10 long as freghts do
not exceed $l5 per ton.

public attention rs those effected by the world
renowned Doctor Baakee Of Baltimore. Ca
SEQ hitherto looked upon as beyond the reach
Of human skill, have yielded to his treatment,
and many a saddencd heart has been made to
rejoice We would refer to an example or
two Mrs. Ticc, the wife Of WIN. NJ. Iice,
of Hagerstown, Md, had n cancer tunlor re-
moved from the nape of her neck, which
weighed two pounds. Any information that
may be wished can be had by writing as
above. The wife Of Capt. John Moore had
n tumor removed from her person Of one
pound weight, and she can be seen at the res
idence of Capt. +. A. Phipps, Locust Point, Just
below the city Of Baltimore. But that which
has conferred upon the Doctor the title Of I'M
comparable, was the removal of a cancer tu-
NOR weighing ten pounds from the thigh of
Mrs Speight wife of Capt. Spcght,at 90 Cough
street near Broadway. The eridences of these
facts are at the Doctor office, and cordial in
