sESN The following is an account of a
duel said to have taken place during the
seige of Fort Donelson between one of
Birge's sharp-shooters and a rebel marks
man:
The Federalist was stationed on a hill
adjoining the entertainments, and at an
early hour of the morning the Secession
foe placed his rifle on a parpet, and fired a
ball through the Unionist's hat. The Sharp
shooter returned his fire, received a second
shot, and sent another; and from that time
until four o'clock in the afternoon, the two
continued discharging their pieces without
injuring one another.
Both fired accurately: but both concealed
their person as much as possible, and en-
deavored to deceive each other by putting
their hats on their ramrOds, and thrusting
their coats from behind the Notifications or
the trees. Whatever was exposed almost
invariably received bullet; but the two
were so wary and skillfnl that it seemed
they might fire until doomsday without
danger to either.
About the hour | have mentioned, how
ever, the Rebel, fergesfu of prudence,
thrust his head over the breastworks, think
ing, no doubt, as his enemy had not fred
for five minutes, that he might be dead.
The movement was fatal. His head was
not exposed five seconds; but in that brief
period the sharpshooter's ball passed into
the Rebels brain, and stretched him out a
corpse before the unfortunate fellow had
been able to determine where his enemy
was lurking, OF by whose hand he was des-
tined to fall.

when We are assured that they have died

most as if they were destroyed, body and

not wish to think they at all doubt the
word of God, that it is for their own loss,

even for life, as traders, or seamen, or mis-
sionaries and have they not, so long as
they could learn that their wanderers were
comfortable, happy and prosperous, borne
the separation with calmness, and even
with satisfaction, because 1t was so much
for the interest of these friendsa What
comfort they took from the fact that the
absent ones were doing we'll /! How few

pain, and has no hope of better earthly for

struck at the idea that be is goiug to die.
They pity him; they fight till the last mo :

the long suffering wretch forth from his
misery, and usher him, made perfectly ho-
ly, and gloriously happy, into the presence
of his Redeemer and Lord. And when q

all bounds The glad, elastic soul, that
was jsst beginning to taste of the joys o.

The Demon Of Intemperance.

1t is difficult to restrain the evil passions
of our nature, under the most favorable cir
cumstsnces; but when the blood is in
famed with alcohol, and reason is well
nigh dethroned, then the demon is stirred
up within and none can foresee what crimes
may be perpetrated. Fearful are the re-
cords of drusken fury. Murder and the
bottle 60 hand in hand. We see two
friends, who, when sober, would lie willing
to make any sacrifice for each others well
fare. They are perhaps officers in the
same regiment, and both have wives and
children at their distant homes, of whom
they have often spoken with Affection
Meeting at tavern to spend an evening,
they have their bottle and glasses, with the
view, a. they suppose, of enlivening and
cheering them. The fumes of the poison
they are imbibing rise to their brain, they
become noisy and boisterous, they dispute,
they look at each other as hateful enemies,
and rising to their feet their sword. are
drawn, and soon one of them lies weltering
in his blood. Such is the result of their
social evening! Oce is hurried without
preparation to the judgment seat of his Of
Tended Creator, the other is the murderer
of bis friend, the destroyer of the happi-
ness of an amiable family! Can he ex-
cuse himself becaus he was intoxicated
when he committed the foul deed?
No! indeed this an aggravation of his
sin. The first made himself a madmau
and then murderer. Bitter cause ba,
he to curse the social glass, as it is called
In one night the thickest gloom has set
tied on all bis worldly prospects. For th.
rest of his life he walks forth an unouie
and unhappy spirit terrified when he look
back to the scene of blood, and still NOR,
alarmed when he looks forward to th,
dread account he is to render to God fo
his misdeeds.
