This dueling Is bsrbsrism unknown to
the higher civilization OF our country; and
Il Is baT6GriSm itself have not chosen to
be present at any Of these battles. I should
as soon think of taking the place Of Saul
Of ofTarsus, when he held the clothes of those
who stoned Stephen. But have repeat

nqHssum" I will not impose upon you q
REPETITION Of this description, but only say
that the duel is with long swords, two
edged, and sharp as razor. The head and
face are left unprotected, and for fifteen to
thirty minutes (the ordinary time is If
teen) the combatants strive to make as
deep and as long gsshes as possible upon
the unproteoted part. The result is some
times fatal, but not often. The parties are
frequently laid up for several weeks while
the wounds heal and then they are per-
hsps ready for another battle. These duels
are fought upon the slightest provoostion.
The students belong largely TO what are
called corps for the encouragement Of this
most disgusting and miserable bsrbarism.
In one Of these Universities was inform
ed there were not less than fifteen Of these
corps. A member Of one becomes little

will understand, although you are told that
nobody gets drunk here-snd calls mem

or by some other complimentary epithet

to the rank Of Colonel. The receipt of the
news of his promotion was the occasion of a
very pleasant affair. Capt. Pitkin's fellow

beautiful American gold watch. The Captain
expressed his thanks in neat and very patri-

The Lamoile Newsdealer tells the follow.

the events Of the field during last week, says
that the record is all in our favor, so far as

not been materially affected But while we

from this poise of forces, that now in the very

he resides, (Giddiues's old district condemn
ed the Wade.Dayis protest in very strong
terms, and, moreover. requested Wade to re-

begged milder measures, but the convention
was not only stubborn, but nearly unanimous
in its stubbornness. Gen. Garfield was re-
nominated for Congress, but not until he bad

There is not drawer man in the Senate, when
hard knocks are to be given and taken, than
