NEWPORT NE Ws.

THA DUELNG SESsATIoN.-0ur citizens
have been on the qiIi viUe during the past forty
eight hours, knowing that one Of the par
ties in the contemplated duel, to which we
have before referred, was in Newport, stop
ping with friend, to watch their move
ments and to ascertain, if possible, when the
fight would take place. 1t appears that all
the preliminaries were not satisfactorily ar.
ranged until late on Saturday evening, when
it was fixed for this morning, tWenty-pound
rifles being the weapons chosen. With this
purpose in view, yesterday morning, Mr..
Heffron, in company with Col. Walker, his
second in the affair, Edmund O. Marshall
and several others repaired to a convenient
spot in hollow, eight miles from our city,
on what is called " -Four Mile,n where they
spent the day practicing under the rules Of
the code, returning in the evening about four
o'clock. Feeling outraged that residents Of
another State should come to our county,
bent on such deadly purpose, one of our
citizens, John T. Maphet, Esq, swore out q
warrant against Mr.. Heffron and his second,
put it in the hands of Marshal Bennett, who
aided by his Deputy, George Summers, Were
securing the city, in pursuit OF the party,
all last evening. It is said to be settled
matter that, unless checked by the officers,
the duel will certainly take plaee-this
morning at day-break.
