Attorney General Tuthell, Of Tennessee,
sustained so serious an injury 10 his honor
by m nrticle l. a Nashville paper that he
called upon the editor, Mr.. Gresham, and
drew his reporter, with the logical purpose
Of proving himself a Gentleman by becom-
ing IN assassin. Mr. Gresham, however,
reversed the operation, wrenched his pistol
out Of his grasp, grappled him and got him
into chanceE, and Kept him there under
the lively operation of his very vigorous
practice. So Tuthel, who came for ven
gcance, stayed for drubbing. The ques-
tiona which need to be decided by Court
Of Honor are whether, supposing Tutheu
were the injured man when he went into
the fight, his wrongs we're adjusted by the
drubbing he thereupon received; and if
the article was true in representing TutheI
as n scalIawag, which result would have
proved it false, the killing Of Gresham OF
the drabbing Of Tuthcll7 It is evident
that somebody has got satisfaction. 1t. is
difficult to see TINT it is Tuthel.

The people Of Illinois have had an c1-
pcnsive experience in the why Of lnying the
foundations OF new State House. The
Legislature Of New York hns authorized
job of the same kind. The progress thus
far mHde We find thus stated:
The construction OF The new State Capitol was
p!aced " the Legislature under commission,
which appointed . committee, two Republican and
o3e Democrat, to let the WORK Of constructing the
foundation, Their specifications for bids called
for twelve thousand feet Of limestone aud ak
thousand OF granite. Several bids wefs put Ia,
ranging from Sl7 for brown stone, and $50 for
granite, to t94 for both. The lower bids were Mi
rejected, and The highest bid accepted. Since the
award was made the contractor has fe-let It to
some OF the lower competing biddefp at the prices
which thc1 hid for ths woEk before the commits
sion, and has thug made q net pro1t out Of the
Transaction Of from eighty tn one hundrpd thou

that they can make handsome profit At thelr nI-
utes The price heretofore paid TOR stoae work
