PRIZE T.-Chicago, December H.
A prize fight between Fred. Busy, of Chi
cago, and Thomas McAlpine, of Detroit, for
$500 side, came off to-day just over the
State line, in Indiana, between Lansing
and the Juliet crossing of the Columbus and
Indiana Central railway. Seventy-hVe
rounds were fought, out of which McAlplne
was thrown down seventy-four times. Nc
Alpine was terribly whipped, and had to be
held up, as he could scarcely stand. In the
seventy fifth round, while they were down
on their knees, Busy struck foul blow,
and so lost the fight, although he was as
fresh as when he stepped into the ring.

The Status of Maryland.
The subcommittee Of the House Judici
airy Committee have postponed further con-
sideration of the question as to the statns
of Maryland until after the recess of Con-
gress.
Communications from the President.
The President sent to the Senate and
House each communications to-day, but his
secretary finding both Houses engaged in
obsequies of deceased congressman, did not
attempt to present the messages.
Nomi7, atoms.
The President will, probably, tomorrow
nominate C. G.. Megrue to be assessor for
the first district of Ohio, c. c. Dana col
lector for the fifth district of Massachusetts,
W. q. Russell collector for the second dis

and ". C. Talley assessor for the seventh
district of Pennsylvania, A. D. Markley COL
lector for the sixth district of Pennsylvania,
0. H. Russell, collector for the fourth dis

the nominations of Mr.. Smythe, to be Min
lister to Russia, and Mr.. Cummings to be
Commissioner of Internal Revenue, will not
be disposed of by the Senate until after the
holiday recess, though there is some talk of
taking them up in executive session to-
morrow.
Departure Of Congressman for Home.
A number of congressman left for their
homes to-day, and in the House there will
scarcely be quorum on Monday next,
as no business is to be transacted on that

and no one felt the loss Of that invaluable
lieutenant more than General Lee himself
did.
To satisfy any one OF what say in re-
gard to General Leeit is only necessary for
him to examine the yet unwritten history
OF that unparalleled campaign from the
Rapidan to the James, of the operations on
the line of defences around Richmond and
Petersburg, and Of the retreat for more
than hundred miles to Appomattox Court
house--a place that will remain forever fa-
NOUS, not as the Rcene Of triumph for the
invader with his untold legions, but as the
scene of the struggle Of that great heart
and that great mind which so reluctantly
surrendered the small remnant of less than
nine thousand Of the Army Of Northern
Virginia with arms in their hands. "a
General Jackson did enough to establish
his reputation ON an enduring foundation
as one of the greatest soldiers, heroes, pa
triots, and Christians, ever produced by any
country or age. Let his fame, therefore,
rest on his deeds, and let not his pure name
be connected with wild and absurd PROPOSE
tions and schemes, either for the purpose of
adding to his glory or obscuring that of any
of his compeers. Who is it that claims
to have known his secret thoughts
and purposes? If he had any fault
as commander it was his extreme reti-
cence, that often left his immediate subor-
diuates in ignorance Of his purposes until
they were called upon to act. Was it likely
that strangers to him personally should
know more of his views than those who i'm
mediately surrounded him The wild
schemes with which his name is sometimes
identified are calculated to do as much
damage to his character as soldier as some
of the exaggerated accounts in regard to his
religious devotions and opinions are calcu-
lated to do to the earnest, truthful, and spot
less nature of his Christian character.

A BLOODY DUEL.-The famous duelling
ground on the Metairie ridge, known as
&C The Oaks" was the scene yesterday morn
ing of sanguinary duel between two young
men of this city which has rarely had its
parallel in the annals of the code either
in this country or in Europe. The antag-
onists we're: the one native Creole of
New Orleans, the other Frenchman by
birth; the provocation, blow in the face
at the hand Of the Creole; the weapons
were broad-swords the hour, daybreak.
Arrived on the field, accompanied by their
seconds, the combatants stripped to the
waist, and sword in hand, in the freezing
air of the morning, sprung at each other
like tigers. There was no hesitation or
playing to try each others skill. A few
lunges and cuts were successfully parried,
when suddenly an upcut from the French
mans sword wounded his opponent in the
right arm. The ripOSte from the Creole laid
open the Frenchman'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
and the skin, but it was made with such
relentless force that it passed also through
the off-arm. An attempt was made. at this
moment by the seconds to stop the matter at
that point, but the man with the handker-
chief around his jaws rushed at the second
who was most anxious to settle the matter,
sword in hand, asseverating that naught
should quiet his luminosity 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, it is hoped, danger
Gus. Both men displayed extraordinary
courage, luminosity, 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 of their wounds. The parties were
carried home, after having their wounds
dressed Neeo Orleans Crescent, Decem-
ber r.
