present, had "privaie difference With an
other gentlemen, which eventually led to a
duellistic challenge, the substance Of which
we will give as near as we can, though ,pt

something like the following:

me a duel on - day at = at = O'Clock.
We will use Colts or Reminger reyelvers,

Truly Bedford is place Of note, though
she has no railroads, no furnaces, no manu-
factories, nor theatre. Pugilisnl in all its pha-
ses is exhibited on every public occasion.
Camp and even funerals are not ex-
empt from these feats or tba pugnacious in
diyiduals. The list of causes at onr last Quar-
ter Sessions viii compete with the lowest pre-
cincts of New York, Chicago or St. Louis.
And now, the dueIlist, a true son of Demo
cratic Thunder, springs up in our midst, to
the terror Of a fellow citizen who thus far is
disiHclined to enter the field. Enough to
excite jealousy 10 Frasce, we're it not that the
hero has totally disregarded all the rules of
that honorable field, such as choosing the
'weepins, &c.
Now that the war is over, can't we have
peace and quiet? Or are there few brave
soldiers who, Aariag serred their country IN
her hour Of trouble (in horn), are sill tascin-
ated by the report Of the gun aud smell Of
powder, and at every alteration presume
their opponents rebs, and open fierce attack
