Two German geutlemen, said to be we'll
known 10 the city of London, recently quar-
relled shout lady, and, It 10 alleged, their
feelings toward each other were 20 bite :
that they could not be appeased without re.
sort to hostile meeting. Seconds and
medical man were accordingly engaged, and
the duel WAS arranged to take place in Fins
bury Park. The combat was not, however,
permitted to take place, and the belligerents
were compelled 70 proceed some distance
farther, to spet whefe they were screened
from the observation of chance spectators
by high hedge. It 10 asserted that they
then fought with dagger knives, having
blsdes seven inches In length; that the
distance they stood apart was only at arms
length, and the position too to tos. The
eyes of each combatant were protected BY .
visard, and no Of the Ringers and the
thumb were protected by the guard on the
knives. Hostilities commenced about seven
O'Clock, and in the first two passes the
slighter antagonist wounded his adversary
in the right arm. The wounds, however,
were not of character-in the opinion of
the bystauders-to causc IN end to the duel
to be declared. The contest proceeded, and
the thrusts and parties followed each o'hcs
in fierce succession. The combatant who
had gained the earlier success seemed ia
have lost nerve, for, after twenty minutes
severe fighting, he lost his guard. and re-
ceived an ugly cash from the corner of the
mouth to the end of the ear. The physician
and seconds here intcrposed, and hostilities
were suspended. The dangerously wounded
man was conveyed In his carriage to the
German hospital. He was specchless when
removed, and oil communication with him
involving the use of speech, has been for
bidden.

With rustic and autter like ribbons Of blue

In the shadow Of rock and tree,
They sang tho same tunes with their silvery
tongues
And clappcd their hands In glee.
Ger rocks with moses mantled
They cddied and whirlcd like . waltxing pair
TIL hand in hand with laughter and leap
They mingled their misty hair.
Ger the self-ssme lcdges,
Singing the selfsamc tune,
They passcd from April to breezy Nay
Toward the nelds of June.
They whirisd and danced and daliied,
And through the meadows cid.

Like two young clouds Of golden hue
That smile on the breast Of morn.

The same bright hair upon their heads,
The same blue In their cycs.
Singing the same eOng ever

Lighting Ocean Stsamszs with Gas

1t was deemed great feat In England
when railway carriages wcre lighted with
gus; hut now It seems the ocean steamers
are to have tho same boon. Tried in one of
the great steamers which ply between Liv-
erpool and New York, Il has answered most
admirably, although the vessel encountered
severe weather. The Saloon is said to be
lighted as brilliantly a. any ballroom. Here
is certainly good news to those who must
cross the Atlantic in tho winter months,
when the evenings aro long, and when dark
ness as we'll . cold drives the passengers
below. Hitherto they have exchanged tho
gloom Of the deck for the semi. gloom Of the
cabin; and what could they do by the aid Of
the lamps, which sent out Atful light! To
read has been imprscticable, unless the book
has been pushed against the scanty flame,
and the experiment is seldom tried. The
passengers must ei,her eas, drink, play
atwhiat, or 60 70 bed, and they usually do
oil four In rapid succession. Some how.
ever, eat, and others drink all evening, be.
cause they cannot Gee 70 read or write. But
tho dark ages have now passed away from
tho saloon, and tho hours will be spent
amid the full blaze of civilization. Nor
need there be any more danger Of are than
there 10 as present, tor gas.pipes can Be
made - safe - lamps, aud the manage.

In those which ply upon the Nississippi It
IL deemed sate TO leave uncovered lights

''liquoring up" and, Of course, the huge
structures are occasionally burned 70 tho
waters edge. But the Cunardess permit no
such tampering with fire. They arc gov.
erned BY benedcient dsspotism, which
acts upon the principle that the passengIrs
cannot safely be trusted with facilities for
lighting their own pipes after csrtain hours.
