A TERRIBLE TRAGEDY has occurred in
California. A gentleman made lady
present of pair of pistols, and after
several trials of skill they concluded to
go through the form of duel. They
took their positions, fred at the word,
and to the terror of the lady, the gen.
tleman fell. She threw herself upon
the corpse, embracing and kissing ii
with every emotion of endearment.--
Under this magical influence the gen.
tleman revived, and arose unhurt from
the ground and--and-they are to be
married.

HORRIBLE ACADEMIA negro girl,
while playing under piece of trestle-
work, on the Nashville and Chattanoo-
ga Railroad, lately, heard train
approaching and attempted to escape
by climbing up between she ties, di-
rectly in advance of the approaching
locomotive. The engineer failed to
observe her, and the flap of her bon
net, as the catcher struck her, was
the first indication he noticed of her
presence. The sharp iron instantly
severed her head from her body, and
she was caught up and whirled beneath
tie terrible wheels, which tore and
mangled her frightfully as the train
swept on. Both legs and an arm had
been torn from the mangled body. and
the head had been crushed almost to
powder.

A Erlghtiui Fall.

At half.past FIVE o'clock last evening,
says the Pittsburg Post, of the 18th,
an accident of most frightful charac-
ter occurred at Gazzam's Hill, in the
Eighth ward, which resulted in the
death of young girl under singularly
sad and painful circumstances. 1t
seems that Miss Maggie McGinniss,
aged about sixteen, who resided with
her parents in the locality mentioned,
was sitting at the brink of the preci-
pice overlooking Everson, Preston 81
Co.'s Iron Mills, In company with two
other girls, both of whom were several
years younger than herself, the hill at
this point rises to An altitude of nearly
two hundred feet, and for fully half
the distance to the bottom it is almost
perpendicular; then narrow shelf or
table land iDtervenes, passing over
which it is perpendicular to the rail-
road track below. While Miss Nc
Ginniss was chattering gaiIy with her
companions, she was suddenly seized
with epilepsy. and in her first sirug-
giles fell over the precipice. A few feet
from the summit her clothing caught
on a projecting rock, and for minute
the unfortunate girl hung suspended
between heaven and earth. It was
only minute, however, for her little
companions had scarcely uttered their
first piercing screams for assistance,
when the clothing became detached
from the rock and the body made its
fearful, fatal descent. Full one hun
dred feet did it fall, striking. as it went,
rocks and bushes, leaving here and
there fragments of clothing and tresses
of hair. until it reached, with crash,
the shelf or table mentioned, when,
with bound, the now lifeless, mangled
corp was precipitated to the side of
the railroad track at the foot Of the
hill.
In few minutes large crowd had
collected about the dead remains,
which were removed to shed close at
hand. The coroner was hastily sum-
moned, and upon his arrival at the
scene he caused the body to be con-
veyed to dwelling in the vicinity.

ODD FIGHT IN PARIs-BLIND MEN
AS PUGILIsTs. A strange fight recently
took place in Paris. Everybody who
has been in the French capital knows
that around the old barriers of that
city were clustered numerous groups of
various kinds of eating and drinking
houses. At the old Barriere Fontaine-
bleau, so called because IT was the por-
taI by which the traveller for Fontalne-
blean Quilted the capital, three blind
men entered low drinking shop and
ordered wine. They were merry when
thew entered it. The wine raised their
spirits to still higher pitch, and by
the time each one of them had two
bottles under his waistcoat, they began
to sing at the top of their voices.
Their merriment was at it's height,
when three roughs entered the room
in which hitherto they had been alone,
and in the hoarse, broken, jeering
voice of the lower class of Paris, one
of the roughs said to the blind men !:
81 say, old glass eyes. are you going
soon to cease squealingY The blind
men stopped singing, and one OF them
said: "Who is the blackguard who
would make us silent?" The rough
answered: ssPut on your spectacles, old
hoss, and you'll see." His comrades,
delighted with the reply, laughed hear
tily, and continued to ridicule the poor
blind men, each hit being greeted with
hoarse laughs. The blind mems anger
became great. They rose. One of
them CROPPED until his hand was on the
lamp on the wall which lighted the
room He extinguished it, and then
exclaimed: Snow we are equal. Joseph
lyle this door so that no one can get
out" Joseph placed his stalwart back
against the door, and his two compan-
ions seized the roughs and beat and
knocked their heads against walls, ia
bles, and the floor. kicked them until
the terrible uproar brought the master
of the shop; be, finding himself una.
BILE to push Joseph from the door,
went for neighbors, and at last, when
entrance was effected, the room was
found in a state of great confusion.
Tables and chairs were turned over one
another, bottles broken in hundred
fragments were scattered everywhere;
the roughs, completely cowed and
dreadfully beaten, were crouching in
corners. The shopkeeper put the blind
men in an omnibus running towards
their homes, and put the roughs out of
the house. The blind men were great.

CALIFORNIA FARMING.-The Stockton Gd- 7ette tells of a farmer from up the San Joaquin who purchased thirty-four tons of grain bags at an expense of Sl 800, in which to sack his wheat the coming harvest This is sample of the extensive manner in which Californians enter into the business of farming. The weight of the sacks alone is greater than many entire crops of quite large Eastern farmers, and their cost would constitute large income to the farmer. This is large tax upon the farmer, AS hts sacks are not returned to him, and this will probably soon lead to the shipping of the grain in bulk.
