Al the questions at issue between McEnery
and Kellogg must he Lett to the tribunals. If
ths Court State Legislature and Congress fail TO
40 Jus1ee, me people VIII condemn, at the ballot
boz, s1d not the people of Louisiana only. but
Of the whole country. -
The people did decide at the ballot-box, and
elected McEnery Governor. The facts following
the election went TO Congress, who coolly prssed
them over to the President, who took the side OF
Kellogg against the people, and hence the little
CIVIL war there; but where the ballot-box is i~-
nored, popular will disregarded, and the Pr-si-
dent invokes the army, submission is necessary
until public opinion takes the wrOng-dsers in
hand. As the President is stronger than McEn-
cry, and the .. s. army stronger than a State
iailitiA opposed by the Federal Executive it is
idle to bring on civil strife to end in civil war
and disaster.-N. y. Express

DUELLING.-We publish in another part OF the
GAZETTE, a full account of the recent very eXcit-
ing duel IN Richmond, Va. Since the famous
meeting between Pleasauton and Richie, this
affair appears the most cool and deliberate attempt
at murder through the "cadc OF honor" that has
been placed ON record. In this case both gentle
men received wounds on the second FIRE that 1t is
thought will prove fatal. Ii their dying will as.
sist TO cure the evil that led 10 their hasty taking
of, the city of Richmond and "Southcrn Cbiv-
airy" will be benefited
No one at this day pretends to defend the code
of duelhng 1t is neither brave nor honorable TO
abandon those who should be loved and cherished
70 avenge an imaginary insult No true gcutle-
man will deliberately and intentionally msult an,
other, and words spoken in haste should not be
needed and where they nrc persisted in, il their
import is not true, the law will remedy al
damage. We do not mean 70 be understood as
imp lying a want of honor In those who recognize
he code We know that some Of the most ex-
eellent OF our people thoughtlessly sustain the
reckless disregard which this practice advances,
Ior human life and the responsibility that rests
upon every man who is sincere in his desire to be
useful and upright citizen. But they have moi
suffered from resort 10 it. 1t places the purest
and most useful citizen at the mercy Of the brar-
gradocio aud the villain, aud the people all over
the world aIe arriving very rapidly at this con
clusiop.
