AFFAIR OF HoNoR.-Friday night, very salty
discussion occurred near to the City Hall, about
III.
who, from the fact that they left the National to-
gether, after a conversation in the hall, appeared
to be intimate acquaintances. They began at
Sixth street the discussion Of the absorbing topic
and got along smoothly enough till at the corner
OF Fifth street, when the argument Of the Union
| man being little more than his secession COM
panion could manage, the latter answered with
the somewhat personal remark, ooh, you're a
id fool" short halt ensued to afford oppor-
tunty for retraction Of the offensive sentiment
About twenty STEPS further, the Union man de-
a ntota
ought to be hung" The secessionist halted, and
asked 9 do you mean that for me?" The Union
man replied that he excluded none, they were all
alike, and he would "lke to be Jack-ketch for
every id traitor" This was more than he of
Dixie's land could stand and he faced about with
the exclamation, g. can lick you, by Cd =" and
fred away with his fist at his opponents face but
he wasn't fast enough, for the return blow took
him full on the proboscis, and he commenced
falling and catching to save himself, until he
brought up against a tree box, from whence be-
shout for the watch, (Which was not answered,
Of course.) When he got off a safe distance he
halted, gave a shout for the Southern Confede-
ityet.
