EUROPE,
BY the Atlantic Cable.

MARRID, March l3.-Am meeting between
Prince Henri de Bourbon and the Duke de
Montpensier took place seven miles from
the walls of Madrid. The principals drew
lots for the first shot, and Prince Henri won.
The adversaries exchanged the first fires
at ten PAGES without result. They then
advanced, at seven PAGES Prince Henri
fired and missed; the Duke returned the
fire with fatal effect, shooting his adverse
ry through the head. The latter fell. and
IN few minutes expired. The Duke
showed the utmost calmness during the
combat, but was much effected when in
formed of the result As the Prince was
poor, the Duke offers to provide for his
widow and children. The quarrel was
caused by harsh letter against the Duke
which the PRINCE addressed to Montpen-
sler, Henri was a brother of the consort
Of ex-Queen Isabella, and cousin of the
Duchess Montpensier

Vincent COIyer's Reply to General
Sheridan.

Sheridan.
To Hon. Felir r. Br7taot, Chairman, Pits
burg.
SIR: General Sheridan strikes out at me
almost as widely as he did at the poor Pie
gans, and with about as much Justice. He
says that IN my extract from Lieutenant
Pease's report of the massacre, "in order to
do injustice to Colonel Baker and to de-
celve kind-hearted public, 1 suppressed
the fact that Colonel Baker took one hun
dred women and children prisoners" If
the General thinks that it relieves the
b!ackness OF the picture any to say that in
addition to the ninety women and tiftv
children sick with the smallpox, killed,
there were one hundred women and chill
dren also taken prisoners, l will add it now.
lieutenant Pease, notice upon a closer
look, does not make it quite so bad as that.
lie says there were eighteen women and
nineteen children (none over three years
and the majority much younger), some Of
whom were wounded and were taken pris-
oners.
The general seems to quite forget that
the same government which placed him in
command of the West appointed us to do
our humane work among these Indians.
and virtually makes it our duty to stand
IN 'front.' OF these helpless outcast women
and children, and to say to any one who
may attack them: Cease yolu bloody
1oork; these are not the gully.
Of the outrages against the poor settlers
OF the border, he says that want it to 90
on" No, General. You know YOU are
not justified in any such inference as this.
Because pull aside the curtain and let the
American people see what you call great
49, NJ. I
low that we do not want the men who per
petrated the horrid crimes YOU portray
with so much zest, justly punished. Strike,
If you must strike, the guilty, not the in
nocent. Faithfully yours,
