"A Duel and its Consequences.


The Havana correspondent of the New
York Times relates the following:
An amusing duel took place yesterday
about five miles from the city. It origina-
ted i'll a remark made by a man to his friend
on seeing lady come out of church. The
lady was unknown to the person making
the remark, but happened to be the others
wife. A slap in the face was the conse-
quence, and a challenge came soon after
This was accepted, and the seconds select
ed place. The wife got wind of the af-
fair, and Immediately took steps to prevent
the dreadful catastrophe. Her first thought
was to notify the police, but that might
| have given her husband the reputation of
a coward, and she took better method by
going to the house of the other party,
where she met his wife, and plan was soon
concocted by the two feminines. This
morning both husbands got up early; wives
ditto. Husbands took carriages, and their
the other with three-took other vehicles
in waiting. When the two duelists arrived
at the spot they were somewhat astonished
on seeing the two other carriages drive up
with their passengers, who coolly informed
the men that they also had come to fight,
so as to make it complete family quarrel,
each at the same time producing an empty
purse and package of baby linen as their
arms and munitions of war. The little
ones had popguns and frecrackers, and
soon some indulged in cry. It is useless
to add that the bloodthirsty Benedicts made
peace Oh the spot, and returned to Havana,
in company with their seconds, to celebrate
the affair over champagne dinner.
Another Atrocious Murder in Philadelphia
| PHILADELPHIA, April 25-About2 o'clock
this afternoon Mrs Magilton, aged 81 years,
was found murdered at her residence in
Shipper street, above Thirteenth. Her
throat was cut with a razor, end seven con-
fused wounds were on her head, inflicted
with hammer, which was left beside her.
Information was first given to the husband
of the deceased by George Winnemore,
who was taken into custody on suspicion,
and committed to await the Coroner's in
vestigatiou. Winnemore was friend of
the family, and had taken tea with the old
couple, who lived alone, the previous even
ing. Nothing was missed from the house,
and it is not known what could have
prompted the murder. The deceased was
the mother of Col. Magilton. The razor
was found in the cesspool belonging to the
house.
The razor has been identified as the
property of Winnemore. It is supposed
that the unexpected return of the husband
prevented Winnemore from plundering the
house.
Winnemore was soldier in the late war,
and was in debt to the tavern keeper where
he boarded. He was anxious to obtain
money to emigrate to Montana.
