The Fatal Congressional Duel.

In our article some weeks ago on the
Graves Cilley duel, fought between those
gentlemen-both members Of Congress
at the time, in 1887, the first from Ken
lucky and the second from Maine-re-
sulting IN the death of Cilley, we alluded
to the remorse of Graves for years after.
A. gentleman from Maine recently visit
ed the house of General Jones, of Wis
consin, who was second in the duel,
and from him learned tie fd'luwing facts,
which are published in the Portland Ar
gus. The writer says:
General Jones expressed great admi-
ration fol Mr.. Cilley, and deep regret
for the unhappy termination of the affair
1t may not be generally known that the
latter portion of the life of Mr.. Graves
was unhappy in the extreme. He died
the victim of regrets and most horrible
Of horrors. Two years he passed in
sleepless nights, with rooms lighted and
with watching friends, whom he was un-
willing to have for q moment leave his
presence He consumed the hours OF
the night in walking to and fro,in moans
and groans and tears, and in wild cxcla-
nations. At length, worn out with men-
tai anguish, grief unmitigated and watch
fulness, the unhappy man expired.

The demand took the Chamber by sur

burst from al parts of the hall, Cheers
followed, which were answered by cries
of derision and disapproval. The opro-

the majority protested against the de-
mand, and demonstrations were made in
its favor.
