fought near Baltimore on Monday morning

"The following are additional facts regard
ing the duel which was fought between dene-
raj Lawrence and Baron KusseroW. At din
ner party q few weeks ago Mrs. Lawrence
was bantering the Baron about young wo-
man to whom rumor says the Baron IL engaged
to be married. During their conversation the
BarsD took offence, and excitedly made hasty
and somewhat imprudent reply--for which,
however, in the course OF the evening he apol.
pgized. A few days passed, and in conversa-
tlon with an attache Of the Prussian Legation,
rhlstiye to the language at the party, General
Lawrence made remark which seriously re.
fiected upon the character OF the Baron. The
attachs tried to induce the General to with
draw his offensive remark; but he refused to
withdraw II.
''The aiacie then told Gen. Lawrence that
he should feel compelled to inform the Baron,
who was his, personal friend. He did so, and
the result was, that the Baron challenged the

The principals would have made another
essay, but the seconds interfered, and the DIFF

SINGULAR -Frisbie, druggist, of
this city, says the San Jose tCal.) Argus, has
an aquarium containing large collection OF
pretty little gold fishes. Recently the fishes
we're temporarily removed into large, globu-
lar glass jar, filed with water. By accident,
young Rhodes, the druggists clerk, discover
ed that by placing his forehead in, contact
with the upper port;o2 Of the glass globe the
fishes all acted precisely as If they had receiv-
ed shock from an electric conductor. This
set Rhodes to experimenting. he tried to
startle the fishes by touching the jar at the
same point with his hand, with books, with
his chin, face and elbows, all without effect.
Even thumping smartly upon the jar with his
tnuckles failed to get up q piscatory excite
ment, but whenever he touched the glass with
the top Of his forehead the fishes we're in
stantly thrown into violent agitation. 1t was
found that the phenomenon did not occur
when the forehead was brought in contact
with any part below the centre, or equatorial
portion Of the glass globe. Queries this
90 to prove that there is true physical galvanoo
ic battery in the top OF the human Uranium ?
Does it go to prove the polarity Of the water
and of the glass jar? Does it furnish faint
inkling Of the source Of cerebral excitation
which produces the phenomenon of thought,
memory and muscular motion? Who can tell

SIR HENRY DE H0GEToN AND THE C0NFEDE-
RATE CoTToN LoAN.-The question, "who is
Sir Henry dc Hoghton?" started in this couu-
try, and, strangely enough, taken up by the
English press, is definitely settled by the fol-
lowing card from the gentleman himself. He
intimates, as will be seen, that the list of Eng
lish Confederate bondholders was not forgery,
as it has been pronounced in England. 1t
would be interesting to have further reyela-
hons on this subject from Sir Henry, who,
doubtless, knows great deal more than he has
yet chosen to tell concerning that unfortunate
cotton loan speculation:
To me Editor of tie London Herald:
SIR: Some evenings ago o paragraph ap-
peared in the Pail Mall Gazette asking "Who
is Sir Henry de Hoghton 2" cavilling at the
American newspapers for believing il the e1.
istence of such fictitious parsonage, and still
more that they should have credited that he
had been involved in the Confederate cotton
loan.
What the purport or intention Of this article
was remains for the Pail Mall Gazette to e1-
plain, for cannot; and can only appeal to you
to let me make it known through your columns
that do exist, and to state that il was alone
in my silence with regard to the list OF con.
tributors to the Confederate cotton loan,
have the merit Of truth on my side. Also that
if did lose by that loan even the sum attribut-
ed to my name by the Pail Mall Gazette, at
least was not ashamed Of the cause In which
lost it, nor sought to fall away from my friends
when that cause came to its worst.
T stood Loyalty by the Southern people from
rst to last, and believe there is not Amer
ican (be he North or South) who would con.
denim me for adheripg throughout to q losing
cause, which believed, and still believe, to
have been just one. -,
Ihave no desire to make mischief with re-
gard to the list which the Pail Mall Gazette is
pleased to designate as ian impudent forgery
but, perhaps, it may some day become knoWli
that Mr.. Bigelow and Mr. Seward were not
quite go much befooled in it as they were sup
posed to be.
have the honor to be, sir,
Your obedient servant,
