A BALLOON DUEL.-Perhaps the most re-
markable duel ever fought took place in 1908.
1t was peculiarly Frenchin its tone, and could
have hardly occurred under any other than
French state of society," NJ. de Grandpre and
NJ. lie Pique had quarrel arising out of a
jealousy concerning q lady engaged at the
Imperial opera, one Madamosselle Tirevitt
They agreed to fight duel to settle their re-
spectivc claims; and in order that the heat
of angry passion should not interfere with the
polished elegance of the proceeding, they
postponed the duel for month, the lady
agreeing to bestow her smiles upo n the sur
viver of the two, if the other was killed; or,
at all events, this was inferred by the two men
if not actually expressed. The duelists were
to fight in the air. Two balloons were con-
structed precisely alike. On the day denoted,
De Grandpre and his second entered the car
of the balloon, LIE Pique and his second that
Of the other; twas in the garden of Tuileries,
amid an immense concourse of spectators.
The gentlemen were to fire, not at each 9TH
err, but at each others balloons, in order to
bring them down by the escape of gas and,
as pistols might hardly have served for this
purpose, each eronaut took blunderbuss in
his car. At given signal the ropes that
retained the cars were cut, and the balloons
assembled. The wind was moderate, and kept
the balloons at about their original distance of
eighty yards apart. When about half a mile
above the earth a preconcerted signal for
firing was given. NJ. lie Pique fred but miss
ed. M. de Grandpre fired, and sent ball
through LePique's balloon. The balloon col
lapsed, the car descended with frightful rapid
ity, and LePique and his second were dashed
to pieces. De Grandpre continued his ascent
triumphantly, and terminated his AERIAL voyage
successfully, at a distance of seven leagues
from Paris.

CAMP OF THE 36TH Mass. Vols, !

Editor ofthe Worcester Daily Spy Sir
Allow me, through the columns OF your pa
per, to answer a correspondent of one of
your daily contemporaries, writing from camp
"Dick Robinson"
Now what are the facts in regard to the at
fair at Covington, which the correspondent
in question regards "frightful?" Simply
these The regiment was at the depot await.
ing transportation to Lexington, Ky They
had Travelled distance of nearly one thou
sand miles, and were nearly exhausted by
tedious journey of one week In one por-
ton OF the station house some barrels of IL
quor were stored, and some few men discov-
cred this, and partOok, dare say, more free
ly than they would have done under any 9TH
er circumstances. few men who had the
liberty to visit the city had drank, and return
ed under the influence of liquor. No disturb
anee OF any nature was made-no confusion,
no 'trighttul plumber Of intoxicated men!"
Everything passed off quietly, and without
disgrace. And yet wrong and glaring con-
structlon can be placed upon the writer's lam
guage. The Inference is, that the scene was
one OF deep disgrace to the regiment, its off
GERS, and the state from which we came. He
torgets that more than once has this regi-

He also mentions the fact thatthis regiment
was sent to Cincinnati, to suppress any dis
tur0ance which might have occurred at the
polls during the municipal election which
took place on the 6th OF April. He goes far
from his path to avoid stating the reason why
the 36th was sent there instead of other regi-
mentS who were encamped near US. He may
be ignorant of the reason, but | will inform
him, and our friends at home at the same time,
that we were selected for this purpose by
Gen. Burnside on account of our reputation
for ct@racter-and what higher praise could
we receive? The order to move clearly ind-
