WASHINGTON, May 8, 1873.
The President announces with deepest
regret, the death of the Hon. S P. Chase,
chief justice of the United States, who
closed a life of long service in the city of
New York on the 9TH instant, having filled
the offices of senator of the United States,
governor of Ohio, secretary of the treas
ury, and browning long career in the ex-
allied position of chief justice of the United
States. The President directs that the
public offices in Washington be closed on
Saturday, the 10th instant, the day of his
funeral, and draped in mourning for the
period of thirty days, and that the flags be
displayed at halEmast on the public build
ings and forts and on the national vessels on
the day of his funeral, in honor of the
memory of the illustrious dead.
By order of the President: t
s5sE HAMILTON FISH,
Secretary of State.
Senator West also received long tele-
gram to-day from Mr.. Kellogg, descri-
bling the alleged attack made on him.
Mr.. Kellogg says that the shot grazed
his neck that it was from pistol fired
by man named Railey, and that his
driver distinctly saw Railey fire. It was
his purpose to have him arrested. Railey
had been appointed by McEnery to one
Of the tax collectorships for the parish of
Orleans, an office worth $4,000 q year.
Senator West said this afternoon that
these fat offices, of which there are quite
lot, are at the bottom of much of the
trouble. None of the McEnery tax coll
lectors had made any attempt to collect
taxes, and the Kellogg government is only
collecting so far the license tax, and has
not yet undertaken to demand the levy on
real estate. Governor Warmoth has, since
his return to New Orleans, kept very quiet
and mixed little in the dissensions which
have been going on.

Probably Fatal Duel Last Ey0ntDg.
Yesterday evening, few minutes before
six o'clock, Major Poe, chief Of police. re-
ceiyed information from the Second police
station that hostile meeting had been ar
ranged between two young men Of this
city to take place at six O'Clock p. M, near
lakewood cemetery. The major immedi-
ately mounted his horse and started with
oil possible speed alone to the scene Of
conflict.
Arriving at lakewood cemetery, he fail
ed to see any indications of the meeting,
but soon met person who, IN answer to
inquiries, said he had but short time since
seen carriages going in the direction OF
Blakey's mill. The major posted, of
in that direction, and after having gotten in
the vicinity of the mill heard two simulta-
neous pistol shots, apparently in the woods
beyond the mill. Finding it difficult To
proceed on horseback through the thicket
he dismcunted, and made his way on foot
in the direction of the reports.
AT this juncture, he heard two more
simultaneous reports, which gave him I'M
erring direction to the spot chosen by the
parties, and in few minutes more he
| appeared upon the scene. He found tws
| men lying upon the ground, apparently
| wounded, with surgeons in attendance, AMI
| Immediately ascertained that the principals

torled the Major, "to require hanging at ALL"
He died about 1850. He was the hrst TO
tighten the newspapers of the day with pleas

connected at times with nearly every news
paper In New York, and no man was better
known there py all classes. He had fund OF
information about the city, its social life, lib
representative men and its political leaders
and schemes. He was also an excellent
dramatic critic. he was, withal, a man uni-
yersally respected, and mourned by many
friends. he at one time attempted to found

ADangerous Experiment.

A most radical innovation upon long es-
tablished custom In relation to the Institution
of marriage has been effected in California
where The old theory that man and vile are
one ia abolished. A new law establishes the
equality of husband and vile, and declares
that the two can contract with eacn oIner ana
sue each other the same as II they mad never
been married. 1t is to be feared that THIS re-
form will hardly meet the expectations OF its
orignators. Lawsuits after marriage, with
husband aud wife respectively in the positions
of plaintiff aud defendant, would not seem To
be calculated to promote domestic felicity
Besides such law would surely lead to per-
petual litigation. 1t is dangerous for vile
to be able to sue her husband for breach of
contract In case he should fall to fulfil pro-
mlse to buy her a new bonnet or silk dress.

The Turf at tho South.

The leading New York sporting paper,
The Turf Field and Farm, notices In com,
plimentary terms the success of the recent
races in Savannah, and expresses the hope
and belief that general revival OF public
interest 10 the turf is at hand throughout
the South. The jockey club OF the Forest
City, we are told, are 30 we'll pleased at the
financial result OF their late meeting, that
they have determined to offer for the next
reunion purses to the extent OF five thou
sand dollars. Commenting on this crafty.
Ing statement, The Turf, Field and Farm
remarks:
"Charleston, once the scene Of the most
dazzling triurnphs of the turf, has not listened
to the clatter of hoofs on the famous Wash
ington course for something like twelve years.
The surviving members OF the club still keep
up the organization, but the aristocratic re.
unions are feature OF the past. But savau-
nah has broken the silence. She has made
an experiment and met with success; and pos
slbly her euccess will stimulate Charleston
lQCO 6CLlOu. SOutu SaIOllud, VIC WCu huOW,
has been more deeply punished than any OF
the other seeding States; the intelligent peo.
pie of the Commonwealth are greatly IN the
minority. Q tremendous black wave of ignor-
auce having overwhelmed them; still 1t
Is not we'll to fold the hands, with an
exclamation OF despair. Gradually the intel
lectual forces are rising to the surface, and,
with patience and perseverance, they will as
sert their supremacy before long. The North
is beginning to lean more kindly towards the
South, and this action affords much ground
for hope. Turf amusements may be expen-
ave In measure, but they direct thought
from the exasperating discussion OF politics,
and in SO doing prove panacea for many ills.
Men Of opposing views can meet on the race
course, and In the social excitement trample
on party lines. The turf is paciiying agent,
and paclfcation Ia what South Carolina wants.
Therefore, we trust 1t is not idle to indulge
the hope that the success of the race meeting
at Savannah will be the means OF leading to
turf revival at Charleston"
