A Duel on Horseback on York Peninsula.

The author of Notes from the South, Col.
Eetvan, Confederate officer, gives the fol
lowing account of an episode in one of the
| fights that took place during McClellan's op-
erations on the Peninsula
An episode in the fight occurred, in the
shape of q duel between one of the enemy's
Dragons and one of our Texans, on a small
field close by. The dragoon evidently seorn.
ed to join in the fight of his comrades. and
displayed such skill in the management of
his horse and the use of his sword, that it
was quite pleasure to watch him. In vain
did the Texan make lunge after lunge at him,
and try all sorts of eSpedients to overcome
his antagonist. The dragoon sat as firm as a
reck in his saddle, welding his sword like a
brand 0! lightning. BY the manner in which
he handled bis horse and weapon Judged at
glance that he was German trooper. and
could not help watching the exciting con-
test with great interest. The Texan still
continued TO wheel round his opponent on his
fleet barb, eagerl seeking to deal home
thrust while the dragon, with a cool. steady
eye, followed all the movements of his i'm
petuous antagonist. At last they close in
earnest. A blow, parry. and a thrust fol-
low close on each other. The Texan had
slashed the Dragons shoulder, so that the
blood began to flow, which aroused a cheer
from the Texans looking on but at the same
moment the former received q back stroke,
which cut through the sleeves and the flesh
of his arm. The Texan now backed his horse
like lightning and his fellow troopers rushed
forward to look at his wound; but without
paying any heed to his hurt he again dashed
at his opponent and made lunge at his
breast. The dragon parried it with great
dexterity and at the same time let fly quartz
which caused slashing wound in the Tex
ans back. The latter spurred on his horse
to little distance, and before | could take
means to prevent the cowardlv act, he took
out pistol and deliberately shot the brave
dragoon, who fell dead from his saddle. The
bullet had entered just below the region of
the heart.
Much moved at his fate. ordered a grave
to be dug to receive the remains of the brave
German trooper. We buried him in his reg
imentals, with his trusty sword on his breast.
and his pistols by his siS Is sad act hav,
ing been performed, [ Or the Texan,
and after reprimanding 4verely for his
cowardly conduct, l ordereo- MIN to seek SER
vice in some other corps, telling him that 1
could no. think of allowing fellow of bis
stamp to remain in my regiment. The Tex
an scowled at me with his wild cat like ewes.
| and muttered a curse; mounted his horse and
rode away.

The Situation.

Emil Schalk, the German war critic. who
has written wonderful book on the war
many OF his predictions having beconae true
k-as regard the movements of armies and their
chances OF fsuccess-pietures in that work the
present" situation The armies Of the Union
commanded by Rosccrans and Burnside have
sole, complete, and undisputed possession of
the mountain district in the very heart of the
{ rebel dominions, as any one will see bv De.
rrsing, the map. They are in a position to
strike in any direction-either at Georgia and
Alabama, at South Carolina, North Carolina
| or Richmoad itself. In fact they hold the
key of the situation, and, as Schalk says, can
drive rebellion into the sea. But let him tell
his own story:
The very mouent g rebel army permits
La Union army to act from the mountain dis
trict (the district in question: against its
communication, or, what is better, to take
hold of them and so as to force it to fight.
forming its line of battle with the sea, and
facing the Blue Ridge-that is, forming its
line OF battle parallel with its natural line of
retreat to the Savannah-this rebel army, in
case of defeat, will not only be beaten, but,
by rapid pursuit will be obliged to siirrsr..
der, as 1t will be thrown back~in the diree-
ton OF the ocean, an-obstacle which soon
stops all further retreat. The possession of
the mountain district is, therefore. for the
Fholding Of theleft zone, a necessity. and. still
better, 1t is a necessity for the possession of
the whole theater of the war. In fact the
chain of mountains is like wedge driven
from the North right into the very heart of the
theGter Of the var. 1t is the only elevated
part Gt L, and dominates It in all directions.
1T isiike a bulwark, or, better still like the
citadel of q large fortress, of which the walls
are formed by the parallel ridges, the bitches
by the rapid streams in the valley, and the
doors by the Gaps. Take thewhole fortress
.z--that Is, the whole South-but leave this
Citadel untouched, and it will be the same as
at nothing had been taken. In these noun
tains the Southern armies can rally, and, as
sby their occupation, they maintain a deeid
ediy central position, combined with tho ia.
flllty Of debouching in any place, they can
throw themselves, with their whole force, on
all the surrounding fragments of our armies
and beat them in detail. Take this bulwark
-this key of the whole Southern Confederacy
f-hrst. and the very reverse will take place.
l<ssr armies are then in ccutrut -pusirion,
and are able to throw themselves on the frag-
ments of the Southern armies with their un-
tied forces. The conquest of the South, after
the occupation of this citadel, will not eren be
a matter time. Resistance would be use |
less, and Surrender lrould be the natural con-
sequence"

The Young widow.

She Is modest, she is bashful
Free and easy, but not bold
Like an apple, ripe and mellow.
Not too young, and not too old.
Half inviting, half repulsion,
Now advancing, and now shy,
There is mischief in her iimple,
There is danger in her eye.
She has studie.. human nature,
she Is schooicd in all her arts,
She has taken her deploma
As the mistress of all hearts.
She can tell the very moment
When to sigh and when TO smile
Oh. a maid is sometimes charming,
But o widow all the while.
You are sad? How very serious
VIII her handsome face become.
Are you angry? She is wretched,
Loneless, friendless, tearfnl, dumb,
Are you mirthful? How her laughter,
Silver sounding, will ring out,
She can lure, and catch, and play you,
As the angler does the trout.
Ye old bachelors of forty,
Who have grown so bold and wise,
Young Americans of twenty,
With your lovelocks in your eyes,
4ou may practice all the lessons,
Taught by Cupid, since the fall,
But know little widow
Who could win and fool ,you all.

WoMAN.-There is nothing can make o
fool of man quicker than pretty woman.
If he had but five dollars in his pocket, and
that sum were especially intended to save a
family from starvation, should he meet q
pretty woman of his acquaintar ce on his way
ten chances to one he would take her to Tay-
lor's and have a champagne lunch. Two
smiles, producing two inviting dimples, will
make any ordinary minded masculine forget
everything but her presence. Who can
blame Adam for eating that applet? Even in
these days there are plenty of us who would
go one tooth on it, at any rate. Imagine your
self alone in garden, bright summers's
day over you, and the incense of thousand
flowers floating ON the soft summer air.
Fancy yourself in such place, alone with q
beautiful, smiling young woman, and she,
her face glowing with bushes, her dark eyes
resting upon you in dreamy volumptuousness
fancy yourself thus with her, and she offer
ing you luscious pippin-could you, would
you refuse TO go one tooth on it? Then don't
blame Adam for being a fool, and don't
blame Eve for taking him in

A LOOK INTO FUTURITY.- Hon.
William II. Seward, in his speech at La
Crosse, Wisconsin, in 1860, said:
"What kind of a government would it
be if We selected man We did not like
instead Of man we did likei My opin-
ion is that it would be government not
differing very much from the empire Of
Austria, where they always manage to
elect a man whom the people do not like,
and where they have an admirable way Of
saving the Union by organizing an army
of 100000 men, armed TO the teeth, to
maintain the man whom they do not
like"

THE whole matter in regard to the ma
tional cemetry at Gettysburg, for the in
terment of the gallent dead who fell in
the terrible battles there, has been ar
ranged. About fourteen acres of land,
fronting the Baltimore turnpike and ex-
tending to the Taucytown r'nd' embrac-
ing the highest point OF the Cemetery
Hill, have been purchased by the State Of
Pennsylvania. Other States have been
invited 10 cooperate in the removal Of
soldiers dead to these grounds. The ar
engagements for plotting the ground
preparatory to the removal of the dead
are making as rapidly as possible.

WHERE ARE THE MEN Y-The North
ern States have furnished since the war be-
gan over thirteen hundred thousand men
for the army. What has become of them
How many of them have been killed in
battle, how many disabled by wounds
How many sickened and died9 How
many have deserted and how many have
been discharged from the seryice9 A
true answer to these questions would fur
nish a chapter in the history of this war
which would not only appall the nation
but astouud the world. At this moment
when our armies are suffering for the want
of men these questions are not only per-
tinent but there should be an answer Civ
en-and one to show that the admins
tration have not been as lavish in the
sacrifice OF human life as in money.-De-

REMovAL.-Well, "the thing is did,"
Our Board of Supervisors, last week,
passed vote, twelve to three--Crockery,
Spring Lake and Grand Haven voting in
the negative--to remove the county seat
from Grand Haven to point across the
river, nearly opposite Eastmanyille, and
but short distance from the river. The
vote of the people is to be taken at the
annual township meetings, in April next,
thereon. What the final decision will be
the future alone, of course, can develop.
