THE LATE VIRGINIA DUEL.

The details Of the late Virginia duel in
which one Of TIE parties was killed and
the other dangerously wounded, proves
several things One of these is that the
high-,oned ladies Of Virgins "chivalrousn
society are given to tattling to no incon-
siderable degree, and tina, it was their per.
sisten. gossiping upon McCar,y's COW
srdice,' which they called his refusal to
fight, that, taken in connection with other
circumstances, gosded him at last TO chsl-
lenge Mordecai. A solemn agreement had
been made and signed by both parties, tina,
they were in future never TO speak TO or
recognize each other at any time, at any
place, or under any circumstances. SO the
affair rested until one night, Mordecai
stepped into the club-room Of both, and
heard McCarty complaining to a friend
Of the manner in which his conduct had
been criticised and say that in tho future
IN any similar affair, such handling of his
name would be resented. Mord eeai forgo.
