FAILING OTT.-There have been but forty new
entries made on the docket of the Supreme
Judicial Court for the present term for Cum
berland sounty-the smallest number of en-
tries ever known. This great falling off may
be attributed to the establishment of the SUI
psrior Court, and shows the necessity of such
an intermediate tribunal in this county.
Nearly one third Of the new entries in the
Supreme judicial Court docket are libels for
divorce. There are thirteen Of them, seven of
which are petitions from. the wives, and six
from the husbands

AN INDIAN DUEL.-The Helena (Montana)
Herald describes "a duel between two Indians
which shows that the red men are often as
punctilious of their honor, and have as much
cool bravery as white men. Some Indians
were at Hooters saw mill, near Helena, when
one of them displayed his revolver, and boast
ed SO highly of his extraordinary skill in its
use that another brave of the party exclaimed,
ugh you can't shoot" and denounced him
him as braggart, at the same time saying
that he could put him to shame at his own
game. Whereupon native No. proposed a
test of skill, giving his opponent the advsn-
tage Of rife, his favorite weapon. This was
at once acceded to, and immediate prepara-
tions were made for duel in their own pecu-
liar style. By this time about twenty warri-
ors had collected, and the party repaired to a
spot near by, where they marked off about for
ty feet-the distance that was to separate the
dusky duelists, who, meanwhile, stood by
manifesting the most stoicai indiherence.-
When all was ready the two warriors took
their positions, standing with their heels on
the mark, back to back one with revolver and
the other with his rife. The Indian who had
been selected to conduct the affair waved a
spear two or three times above his head, gave
the terrible war-whoop, and on the instant the
two savages wheeled and fred. Both fell
one shot through the brain. the other pierced
to the heart. =

with those who, upon any plea,
favor reputation. A dishonest man
can always find some way to dodge.
We know that the national debt is
as sacred as any debt ever incurred,
and should be paid according to
contract, and the man who advo-
Gates reputation in any form, with
the expectation that the American
people will endorse it, is about as
big fool as ever lived outside of a
lunatic asylum or penitentiary. The
masses Of the American people are
honest and look with just contempt
upon the sneaks who favor national
dishonesty and disgrace.
As to term of contract, if the par
ties. interested cannot agree, the
courts are competent to decide.
