Desperate Duel.

A duel was fought near Richmond on FRI
day evening week, Of which we have the fol-
lowing account in the Enquirer:
"A few days since a difficulty occurred at the
Club between AesSiS. J. B. Morlecai and Page
Mccarthy, two Young gentlemen Il this city,
In which a blow was passed from the former
to the latter.
\ correspondence was pr mpty opened and
all efforts TO effect a reconciliation proving
fruitless a meeting was determined upon. The
time was fixed for 6 O'Clock last evening, and
the place was selected on the York river rail-
road, about half mile from Blaekney's mill.
The most profound secrecy was observed and
no iutimation Of it reached the police until the
hook of the meeting had passed and the mis-
chief had been done.
Chief Of Police Poe got wind OF Tire affair
about o'clock, and Immediately took horse
for the scene Of action. Arriving there about
o'clock, he discovered the principals stretch
ed on the ground where they had fallen and
four friends aud two surgeons with them.
Mordicai was found to be shot in the abdo-
men, aud is, it is feared, dangerously wounded.
Mccarthy received flesh wound in the thigh,
which is not considered serious.
The principals were taken to their respective
residences; the friends were arrested and bail
ed to appear before the police court Monday.
Il is said that Colonel w B. Tabb, of West
Virginia, and JohnJ. Meredith were the seconds
of Mccarthy, and W. L. Royal and VIM.
Tugg for Mordecai.
The weapons used were pistols under the
usual code regulations. Owing to the tragic
termination of the affair, all the parties con-
uected with it are reticent, so that it was i'm
possible to obtain the particulars Of the occur
rences on the field"

70 tks Richmond Correspondent Of the Ne'0
Fork Herald
SlR:-Iour graphic account Of the late
Richmond duel in which reference - made to
the deadly combat near B.adensburg between
two distinguished Nirgiuians, Is incorrect 10
some respects. That duel between General
Armistcaj Thompson Mason, Senator from
Nu,iuia. and Nj John McClrty, his brother
in-aw. was fought 90 February 1919. and ter
minated fatally for Gen. Mason. Col. Nc

for twenty wears thereafter. ile never was IN
CONGRESS. but IVES g member OF the Virginia
House of Delegates about the year 1884 from
the County Of Loujoun. It was his brother,
William W. NcCarty, many years a Senator
of tUc State from Luudoun, who succeeded
Gen. Charles Feu;on Mercer IN Congress IN
1910 and 1871 Aud it is probable that Page
McCartv. one of the parties 60 the late duel,
was q son of tlis gentleman.
The National Lusl igerce- Of February 1919
contains an account Of the sad affair Of that
mouth. which lost Virginia noble son. Gen.
Mason. known as q gentleman Of tue personal
qualities, and Of untoub;ed courage, went IN TO
the contest under too sensitive impression
that a military man must not submit TO the
slightest tauut MS 20 bis yalor. he could have
outiyed any imputati0n on that score. Tie
was greatly esteemed as a cmyalrOuS and cour-
teops gentleman. The McCartys were conSid-
cred equally high-to5sej and gentlemanly IN
their personal bearing The quarrel which re-
suited So disastrous'y might have been pre-
vented by the inte7pOsition Of judicious friends

Failure Of Halls Arctic Expedition
and Death Of Capt. Hall.

The Arctic exploring expedition which left
New York, June Goth 1871, in the Pola14s, I'M
der command of Capt. Hall, has come to a dis
sstrous end. The steamer Tigress, just arrived,
reports the rescue Of nineteen survivors of the
expedition. They were found upon an ice-hoe
upon which they had drifed through the dreary
Arctic seas for seven or eight months. The
report that on the Sth of October, 1871, in
latitude Sl3S, longitude 6E4l, Captain Hall
died of appopexy, and was buried on shore
where they erected a wooden cross to mark lis
grave.
The Polais when last seen by them was
making for Northumberland Island, with thir-
teen Of the crew still on board. The ship was
considerably damaged by the ice, and it is
doubtful if she will ever be heard from. The
party who were rescued had got on the ice
with stock Of provisions, fearing tina, the ship
would 20 down.
