gun duel at Horn Lake, De Soto County,
Mississippi, between, Colonel VIM. iB3,tttsl iBotte- z
Ter and Mr.. Winfield Mcclellan, lwhieh
took place a short time. since. Thereii
were quite number of citizens at Horn j,
Lake when the belligerents walked out d
hundred yards from the depot to settle q
difficulty without seconds. as none of the
gentlemen present would act. The par
ties had hitherto been good friends, but
had quarrelled over their soups" about
some trivial matter. Those iRlown could
see the fighters on the hill, and could
hear the loud conversation as they were:
preparing for the contest. Colonel Bote.
Ter loaded his gun with heavy squirrel
shot, having determined not to- kill his:
opponent, but to cripple him by shooting
him in the legs. Mr.. Mcclellan, how
ever, was not so sconsiderate, as ne ram
med down sixteen bucksAot in each bar,

pace of twenty steps from where Boteler
stood; then Mcclellan. was to wheel
around and both parties were to FREE
Mcclellan marched off, never. looking
back, but called out the PAGES as he went.
When he called twenty, he shouted,
"Boteler, are you ready Ready.
answered the Colonel. Then Nice Clellan
wheeled, and there was a simultaneous y
discharge OF the guns, Boteler firing both
barrels ut once, and cClellan but one.

charged the other load. Roteler ap-
preached him and extending his hand,
saying
Mcclellan. take my hand and let us
be friends'a y, 81
eI'll be - if do, was the answer.
soHe paFleying took place, McClelland
insisting that he would load his gun
again. Colonel Boteler took the precau-
ton to place some buckshotin his pock-
et, and answered : ss.rse!a
Mcclellan, you.are not much hurt;
L shotyou with squirrel shot, as did
not desire to, kill you. but ifyou load
again, next time / shall kill you cer-
tain"
BY this time a number of citizens, see
ing the puffof smoke and hearing the
report Of the guns, rem up and stopped
all further proceedings. DR.. Baskerville
attended McClclland and extracted Eff
teen or twenty shots from his left leg
Several of the lcaden missiles entered
the knee and ankle joints, and these could
not be extracted. Yesterday Mir. Nc
Clellan was suffering intensely, but was
in no danger, and no doubt in month
he will be up and well, but in all proba-

Both parties were arrested, and were
taken before q magistrate, and had to be
discharged las no witnesses were present
at the duel.

young women, who were weeping bitter

were brought there to be sold. Excited
by n lively sentiment of compassion, he

ALBANY, July 6.-In the town Of
Greensbusb, opposite this city, on the
Hudson river, last night, officer Muir
ply interrupted a row that was going
on and requested one Of the partici-
pants, Mr.. Cornelius, a well known
rough, to behave himself and 50 home,
whereupou Cornelius commenced an
assault on him (Murphy), who drew
his club and struck Cornelius two or
three terrible blows on the head,
telling him TO the ground ard
rendering him insensble. The injured
man was picked up, and, on examins-
ton, it was found that be had received
fatal injuries. He died in a short time.
Officer Murphy gave himself up and
was taken TO the police station. The
affair created much excitement in
Greenbush. Cornelius.was a married

The Charleston Courier, referring tc
the silly cutlery that has been raised
concerning the memoranda blown from
Judge HorFMAN's window, makes this
centre shot in reply:
In the third place, il a premature
opinion had been written it would not
be out OF place, in deciding upon the
validity of a law for which veto was
prepared two weeks in advance OF its
passage. 1t WAS a matter Of public
notoriety here that the celebrated Jlm'
sweeney veto message, DENYING the
authority OF the Board of Public Works
10 make certain appointments was
written ten days before the passage OF
the bill TO which it applied. And what
made the matter worse, the man who
signed the bill and sent it 10 the Legis-
lsture wasn't its author. There is
reason 10 believe, however, that when
the opinion Of the court On this Peni,
tentary question is announced, it will
be the courts own opinion. That body
does not rely upon outside sources for
its brains.

Indian Raids.
Adyices received here from the head
quarters OF the Department OF Texas
write that all possible precautlon
ha. been taken to guard against
any future raids by the Indians across
the Rio Graude, but of course the force
at the disposal OF the department COM
mander is insufficient to guard the
entire frontier. The alleged demonsira'
ton against Brownsville is thought to
be a feint to cover an attack on some
other quarter, which, II made

that the Government will approve all

Afidavits showing systematic system
OF swindling over period Of fifteen
years. The Custom House officials are
still very reticent on the subject. Affi-
davits have been m ade and fled in the
United States district court here by
John L. Apy, formerly salesman and
general manager of the business of the
Arm OF Dunden, Freese & Co,
but who has made affidavit
He writes that Dunden, Freese il Co.
have their principal houses in Brussels
and have branch houses in London, st.
Petersburgh, San Francisco, and New
York. The principal resides in Brus-
cells. Their business is the importation
of white goods, laces, embroi Iery &c,
and in New York it exceeds 100000
yearly. During the period otApy's SER
vice from 1865 to 1869 they committed
frauds on Government by false invoices.
The difference between real and false
prices placed on goods was gen.
orally 80 to SO per cent. Their false
invoices were made at Brussels and
sent here subsequent to the genuine in
voices. Apy has personal knowledge OF
the firm having smuggled goods in
1865-66-'67-'6S-169, chiefly laces and
camel hair shawls, all being passed as
baggage by the customs authorities.
The shawls alone were worth $4,000
and the textures over $4,000. The
total frauds will be cloee on to
$2,0O0,0O0.

4 SERIES Of lectures on Mr.. Darwin 3
philosophy OF language has recently
been delivered by Prof. Max Muller, the
distinguished philOlcgist. He main
tsins that there is at least one grea,
difficulty in the way Of the theory that
q man is the genealogical descenoent OF
some lower animal. Between the whole
animal kingdom on one side and man
even in his lowest state on the other,
there is barrier which no animal has
ever crossed, aud that barrier is lam
cuage. It's true that one form o.
language, the emo,ional-such as cries
is common 10 animals and men, but
rational sueech is the pre.oga;ive OF
man alone. The Use OF emotional Ian.
guage is not un'requently retained by
those whom disease OF the brain has
deprived Of all power OF rational speech
The roots Of words, said the lecturer,
are are Oldest title deeds as rational
beings, while no trace of them, or any
thing corresponding to them has ever
been discovered among even the most
advanced oi apes.
