DESPERATE DUEL.-We learn that 2
desperate duel was fought On We9ees-
day in the neighborbood of the city. be-
tween an ex.Confederate and q Federal
officer. The weapons were pistols and.
at the first fire, the Federal received the
bullet of his antagonist through both
lungs, causing a dangerous and probably
a fatal wound. The ex Confederate was
shottthrough both legs, below the knee,
the tibia Of the right leg being broken
Though serious, bis hurts are not dan
gerous. We believe the quarrel arose
from politics. The Federal is a native Of
France, whilst the ext Confederate is either
a native Frenchman, or a creole Of French
extraction, who was an officer in Coppens'
Louisiana battalion, and had been public
~ complimented by Gen. Lee on the bat
tlefield for his gallantry. 1t is rnmored
about town that three more duels were to
have been fought yesterday afternoon,
and three more this morning, but we have
learned no particulars.-N. O. Crescent

other. 1t is like arguing upon religion
no satisfaction can be arrived 1T no mat

a Federal officer, or vi;ce versa, who is be-

71PLAN11Sa BY THE MooN.-Tbe Hazle-
burst (Mi's.) Copian, %enligbtens US thus
upon.this abstruse subject !:
There are a great many who ridicule
the idea Of planting BY the moon ; but ex-
perience is wiser than science, and many
of the most useful gardeners observe RI
gidly the rule of planting according to
the changes of the moon. An old friend
in whose judgement we have faith, as
sures us that all vegetables of the vine
kind, as beans, peas, potatoes, etc, bear
more luxurjantly if planted in the first
three or four days after the full moon; and
that corn plunted N the decline of the
moon will make heavier ears than if plant
ed at any other time. Let planters
remember this, and make the experiment.

ITHE PRESIDENTS P RocLAHAr1oa.-The le-
gal effects of the Presidents recent pro-
clamation, declaring the warsat an end,
are much wider and more ramiied than
would at first sight be supposed. There
are several acts of; congress- that have
their existence dependent upon the dora
ton Of the war; The joint resolution Of
congress-, approved February Sth. 1896,
excluded eleven States from pArtiieiipaatiioon
in the Presidential elections, because they
had been declared in iD~surrection. The
act Of March 3, 1866, creating the freed
mems bureau, expires by it's own enact
ment n year after the end Of the rebel
lion. An act of March s. 1863, authoriz-
ed the President "during the present re-
bellion, whenever in his opinion the pub.
lie safety might require it,n to suspend
the privilege of the writ Of ihabeas cor
pus, and President Lincoln's proclamation
of September Is, 1868, s~uspendings the
writ, declared that the suspension should
+" continue throughout the duration of
such rebellion" or until the proclamation
shall, BY a subsequent one to be Issued
by the President OF, the United States, be
modified or revoked" The recent procla-
nation Of President johnson also changes
the army and navy; from . val to . peace
footing, reducing officers pay for commu.
tation, for ~rations, forage and horses to
which. those Of high grades in the army
are entitled. In addition to the laws

sel The question of a railroad from
Baton Rouge to Clinton is being agitated
by the respective inhabitants. Such a
road will do moreato advance the interest
and wealth Of both places than any enter
prise they could possibly engage in
Every land owner along the proposed
route should use his utmost exertious in
forwarding this scheme. Their lands will
be doubled in value, always saleable, al
ways rentable and will never seek a pur-
chaser. From what we know of the coun-
try between these points, we feel assured
the stock will pay a fair dividend, while
the merchants and others at the terminii
Of the road will reap a rich harvest from
the business which must naturally seek
that channel. TIE estimated cost of the
road is about 100000, one-third Of which
will be realised from the State, under the
act assisting all public works, leaving the
remainder to be raised by taxation and
subscriptions. 1t seems to US that 200,
600 can easily be raised in the two par
isbes, Baton Rouge and Clinton alone,
should take half of the remainder leav-
ing 100000 to be taken by the country
people. Besides there is good reason to
believe that q liberal subscription can be
realized in New Orleans by merchants
and others interested in the prosperity OF
the two parishes. We hope to see ONE
thing done in this matter at once. Ener-
getic business men should take the mat
ter in hand and endeavor to put it through
without waiting for Northern or Euro
pcan capital. "a. -
If the proper energy is shown, there is
a bright future for Baton Rouge. The
Crosse Tete road will be in operation be-
fore the year closes, the damage being
much slighter THAI was at first supposed,
while ample mean are at command to
complete it to the Atchafalaya river,
which no doubt, will be dope during the
ensuing year. All the business this road
can produce will flow into the hanas of
the Baton Rouge merchants, and expe-
has told US that goods can be fur.
nished cheaper in that city than they
could D. purchased in New Orleans. On
this point. however, much depends upon
their disposition TO accommodate, and the
action of the city authorities in regard to
taxation. Build the road to Clinton
extend ours to the Atchatalaya, and Baton
Rouge, in a few years, will be one of the
most fourishing cities Of her size, in the
whole southern country. These are n
visionary dreams--,hey are facts, patent
to every rejecting mind, but they never
can be realized unless prompt, vigor-
GUS and determined action takes the
place Of apathy and Indifference.
