A NOVEL DUEL.-There is scarcely any
lbject on which more discordant opinions are
ntertained, than on that OF dueling and while
ne party condemns ii as fragrant violation of
Il the laws both of God and man, others are
ontented to represent it as a necessary evil.
Without, however, discussing at present the
xpediency or the practice, it appears that if
N appeal must, in any case, be made to arms,
he great object should be to place the cham
lions on equal footing, and pregent, as far as
possible, the better cause from yielding to the
mere skillful combatant. In one single, solita-
Nv instance, has this been attained. On the
borders of Austria and Turkey, where private
oique, or private quarrel, of single Individual
hight occasion the massacre Of family or
;ilage, the desolation Of province, and per-
haps even the more extended horrors of na-
iional war, whatsoever any serious dispute
arises between two subjects Of the different
empires, recourse is had to terminate il to what
Is called the custom of the frontier. A spa
.cious plain or field is selected, whittier, on an
appointed day, judges of the respective nations
repair, accompanied by those whom curiosity
or interest may assemble. The combatants
are not restricted to the choice or number of
their arms, or in their mode of fighting, but
each is at liberty to employ whatsoever he
'conceives is most advantageous to himself, and
avail himself of every artifce to ensure his own
safety, and destroy the life of his antagonist.
The last time that this method of deciding q
quarrel on the frontiers was resorted to, fur
nishes circumstances sufficiently curious and
the recital of them may serve TO illustrate what
is above mentioned The phlegmatic German,
armed with the most dangerous weapon in the
word-a rifed pistol mounted on a carbine
stock-placed himself in the middle of the field;
and conscious that be would destroy his enemy
if he could once get him within shot, began
very slowly to smoke his pipe. The Turk, on
the contrary, with a pistol on one side and
another on the other, and two more in his
holsters, and two more in his breast, and a
carbine at his back, and sabre at his side,
and q dagger in his belt, advanced like NOV
ing magazine, and galloping round his adver-
sary, kept incessantly firing at him. The
German, conscious that little Or 10 danger was
to be apprehended from such marksman with
such weapons, deliberately continued to smoke
his pipe. The Turk, at length, perceiving a
sort of little explosion, as if bis adversary S
pistol had missed fire advanced like lightning
10 cut him down, and almost Immediately was
shot dead. The willy German had put some
gunpowder into lis pipe, the light Of which
his enemy mistook, as the other had foreseen
would be the case, for flash in the pan and
no longer fearing the superior skill and superb
or arms of bis adversary, fell victim to them
both when seconded by artfce.

The Tone OF BULLETs.-A soldier, writing
from one of the camps on the Potomac, thus
alludes to the peculiar noise made by bullets
passing through the air: 1t is very good
place to exercise the mind, with the enemy s
pickets rattling close at hand \ musical ear
can study the different tones of the bullets as
they skim through the air. l caught the
pitch of a larke sized Mimic yesterday-it was
a swell from f TO fiat F, and as it passed into
the distance and lost its velocity, receded to
E-a very pretty change. One of the most
startling sounds is that produced by the
Iiotchkiss she'll. 1t comes like the shrek of a
demon, and the brayest old soldiers feel like
ducking when they hear it. 1t is no more
destructive than some other missiles, but there
is great deal in mere sound to work upon
mems fears. The tremendous scream is caused
by ragged edge of lead, which is left on the
shell. In favorable positions of light, the phe
nomena can sometimes be seen, as you stand
directly behind gun, of the clinging of the
air to the ball. The ball seems to gather up
the atmosphere and carry it along as the earth
carries its atmosphere through space. Men
are frequently killed by the wind of cannon
shot. There is a law which causes the atmos-
phere to cling TO the earth, or which presses
upon it with force, at the surface, of fifteen
pounds TO the square inch does the same law,
or q modification, pertain to cannon balls in
flight? do not remember of meeting with a
discussion OF the subject in any published work.
1t is certainly an interesting philosophic ques-
tion.
