FATAL DUEL IN SAVANNAH.

The usual quiet Of the city yesterday
was seriously disturbed by tho announce
ment that duel had beon fought in the
vicinity Of the city, at 7 o'clock a. M.
between two we'll known gentlemen. It
was not until later hour, half past
ten, that the affair was fully made known
by the fact one of the principles, Mr..
Ludlow Cohen, was brought to the city,
and to his residence, wounded fatally in
the encounter.
The principals to this fatal affair were
Captain Richard F. Aiken, a gentleman
we'll known in the community, and Mr..
Ludlow Cohen, a merchant Of the city
equally we'll known, and both of them
highly esteemed and respected. We are
unable to state the causes leading to
this "code," except from universal re-.
port, which bases the difficulty upon a
private quarrel between the two gentle.
men named, which could not, it seems,
be adjusted without resort to the
fold.
The gage Of the battle was thrown
down by Mr.. Aiken and readily accepted
by Mr.. Cohen. Between six and seven
O'Clock, Thursday evening, the parties
accompanied by their respective seconds,
few friends, and two surgeons, pro-
ceeded to Dr.. Reeds plantation, five
miles from the city, on the Augusta
road, and at six O'Clock yesterday morn.
ing they repaired to the field seleoted
for the fight. 4
The ground was staked of, the
distance, twelve PAGES, measured, and
the principals and seconds took their
respective places, the latter loading and
placing into tho hands OF their prlnoil
pals the weapons, regular old style

Gillespy and swore out warrant against
Edgar Barstow, fellow soldier, charg-
ing him with committing an assault and

before Justice Gillespy, who, the Of.
Tense being fully proven, required him
to give bail in the sum of 800 for his
appearance at the next term Of the

between the component parts Of the

gest that, instead OF sending the Of
tenders to Jail, they shall be sent out on
the plains at once We are of the
opinion that il they get scslped time
or two. they will have no desire for any
other kind of lighting.

the horse attached to the carriage in
which they were seated, took fright in

flight into the city, with a portion Of the
carriage door dangling at his heels

With the exception Of one or two
trifiing mistakes, the above is entirely
correct Mr.. Steenrods horse did not
run away. The vehicle was not over
turned. Mr.. and Mrs Steenrod were
not thrown out, and neither Of them
were injured The horse did not con-

RUNAwAY-NARROw ESCAPE y e.
terday afternoon about 4 o'clock as
Robert Crangle, Esq, started for drive
in his buggy, the horse feeling playful
under the influence OF the cold weather
and want of exercise, commenced TO
caper and prance AT lively rate. Get
ing frightened at something as he came
down the hill on Quincy street between
Fourth and Market, he tried to run
away. Mr.. Crangle held him, however,
until opposite the entrance to the Cath
ole Institute Hall, when the animal
turned in on to the sidewalk. The
buggy wheels caught in the iron fence
above the area, at the side of Smyth's
grocery and broke ont about ten feet
OF the fence. The horse finally upset
Mr.. Crangle and the buggy into the gut,
ter in front of Smyth's, damaging the
vehicle badly. Mr., Crangle luckily
escaped unhurt

THE WRONG MAS.-An assault with
stones and misses was made on the
house of Mrs. Mary Boring, on Eoh
street, Thursday night. Mrs. Boring
was lying very sick at the time, and the
person who made the assault had been
denied admission, and hence the out
rage. 4 warrant was sworn out before
Squire Clohan charging a man called
"Frenchy" with the commission OF the
offence. A man so called was arrested
but he proved to have been at home
and asleep at the time the house was
assaulted and was, of course dis

POLICE CoURT.-There was a great
lack of interest and auditors al the
police court yesterday, though there was
no lack OF cases for trial.
The gentle, sweet, genteel Boose La
sure made the dull room shine like .
a morning star as he illumed it with the
light Of his countenance. Boosey was
overtaken with a desire to sleep as he
walked through the Second Ward mar
ket house on Thursday evening. So he
laid himself down to rest between the
benches seeking
Tired nature'ssweet restorer, balmy sleep"
His dreams were rudely broken by
Officer Richardson who lugged the
lovely Boose off to the lookup, making
a Gala oose of him. 81 and costs was
the charge. No shekels. Chain gang
FIVE days.
Hamilton Higgins came into the
dock when his name WAS called, looking
as scared and ready to run as if he had
been blood relation Of SUIT Lovingood 8.
He had been guilty Of indecency on
Main street on Thursday afternoon.
Fined 81 and costs.
Trouble seems to come TO the klg-
ginses in unbroken doses, for no sooner
had the case Of Hamilton Higgins been
disposed of as mentioned above, than
Elijah Higgins was shot in upon the
Court like a second attack Of the
measles. Lie came in with his hair
standing on end. He seemed to feal
that plain drunk was hanging mat
ter, and his "I'll never do it again
expression was extremely funny to see
/ His was only plain drunk, very plalr
drunk, so 81 and costs settled for 1t.
