A POST OFFICE MYSTERY.
A Connecticut Post Once systematically
Robbed for Months.

From the New Haven Palladium, Dec III
For some days past there has been considerable
coyery that the mails from the Post ONCE had been
robbed OF about bushel of letters, some OF them
with quite valuable enclosures. The envelopes and
once. The letters which could be declphered were
all directed to parties out OF the city and 1t Is prob
able that the entire mail was outward bound. One
draft for $1,000 was found; also Others for smaller
amounts, and how much money was taken II Is Inn
possible to say.
sent for who his arrival proceeded TO investigate
the circumstances attending the robbery, and s0On
after the junior clerk, named Dyer, was arrested.
The postmaster, DR.. John ]. Jaaues, after nvest
CATION OF the circumstances duplicating Dyer. de-
clared that there was not the least reason for holding
him longer, and he was therefore promptly dis
The postmaster, and his son, a lad OF about fifteen
years, and the chief clerk are, with the junior
clerk the only persons who have had access to
the Post ONCE. The postmaster and others
are satisfied OF the entire integrity OF the chief clerk.
and the Junior clerk has been shown TO be inno-
cent Thc question now Is who IL the guilty
partyf The special agent Is now engaged In
Investigating the matter thoroughly. The Wa.
terbury American said nothing on the subject
until Yesterday when IL explained that II had said
nothing because there was little 10 be said, and II
had been Officially not to MAKE e S M
the ends OF Justice. All the information II now
vouchsafes Is that all known at present is That the
mails have been tempered with Tor several weeks,
and that suspicion does not point 20 any one IN the
once.
y. S.-Stnce writing the ABOVE We nave received
the following special despatch from Waterbury,
.Tt was first discovered that something was wrong
about the middle OF october, and q special agent
notified who has been investigating IL ever since.
IL has been ascertained beyond q doubt that some
person has been In the habit OF entering the once
nights by false keys. The postmaster thought he had
the rogue and arrested him. but II proved otherwise
Hence the real cuprit has escaped"
The waterbury american OF the 1Ith contains
statement Of the postmaster In regard to the rob-
berry, which renders the AFFAIR more mysterious than
ever. We suppose the citizens Of Waterbury will
wake up some morning and learn all about II through
the newspapers. Perhaps the culprt IL nearer home
than the postmaster imagines.

A Haucous DUEL BETWEEN A CREOLE AND A FssssHxlS.

From the New Orleans Crescent Dec. 1871
The famous duelling ground on the Mctairie Ridge
known az 1.-THE Oaks,p was the scene yesterday
morning OF a sanguinary duel between two Young
OF this city, which has rarely had its parallel In
the annals OF the code either In this country or In
Europe. The antagonists were the one native
creole OF New Orleans, the other Frenchman by
birh the provocaton blow In the face at the hand
OF the creole; the weapons were broadswords; the
hour daypreak. Arrived ON the field, ACCOMPANIED
by their seconds the combatans stripped TO the
waist, and sword In hand, In the freezing air OF
the morning, sprang at other like tigers. There was
no hesitation or playing to try each others skill. A
suddenly an up cut from the Frenchman's sword
wounded hts opponent In the right The rtposte
from the creole laid open the Frcnchman's left
cheek, laying the inside open and exposing his
teeth Nothing daunted, the wounded man stepped
back, had handkerchief bound round his face and
again put himself In attitude OF offence. HIS first
lunge penetrated the breast OF his antagonist between
the RIB aud the skin, but II was made with such
relentless force that II passed also through the
the seconds to stop the matter at that point but the
man with the handkerchief around his jaws rushed
at the second who was most anxious TO settle the
matter, sword In hand assevcrating that naught
should quiet hts anlmoslty except cut across his
throat. The battle was renewed and lasted until the
creole had received eight wounds and the other six,
all severe and painful but none, II IL hoped dam
gerous. Both men displayed extraordinary courage
animosity and endurance and during the course OF
the bloody encounter neither was willing TO give up
the contest until both had TO let their hands fall help
less TO their sides from loss OF blood and the pain or
their wounds. The parties were carried home after
having their wounds dressed, and though the creole
had two more wounds his situation was more COM
Portable and loss critical than that of his antagonist
