AN 0LD-TtME DUEL.


70 the Editor Of The Chicago Tribune:
Sin: The article which appeared in your Issue
Of Sunday last, On 1.-The Field Of Honor" recalls
to my mind meeting in that line which took
place in the chiyalEic city Of Now Orleans. about
half century ago, brief account Of which-as
I presume very few OF your readers hare ever
heard OF the aGair-,nay not be uninteresting to
them. There ro=ided at that time in the Crescent
City Scotch gentleman By the name OF John
Macmillan, quite young man, and not long out,
believe, from the "Land O. Cakes" Dueling,
aB is we'll known, was then in it's zenith in the
*'sunny South" and any gentleman who hap
pened to be called out had to toe tho mark, 9TH
elwiBo he would lose caste in society. There
had for some time existed in tile city An associa-
ton of ''geutlemeu "-duelists, bearing the
rather unattractiye, but not inappropriate, name
Of tho s' uell-Fire Club" # my memory serves
me right, one Of the rules Of this Club was that
no gentleman could become member unless he
had killed bis man the qualification for Presi-
dent being not less than two men. and the MEM
ber who had s'lald out " the greatest number
always occupied that exalted position, and, in
the case Of tie Of two or more. the election was
decided by ballot. The incumbent, at the time
Of which am writing had - disposed" OF three.
At dinner at one OF tho 7tcls, Macmillan
aud tue Hell-Fire President c.4anced to occupy
othor,-or perhaps cause at all, but prompted
probably By the oesire Of Hell-Flro to give tho
world some new proof OF his valor, fearing that
his fame might bo On the wane,-he had not
killed man for several nlonths,-and thinking
no doubt there WAS prospect Of working un q
case with the Scotchman,--he unceromouiously
threw tho contents of his wine-glass scross the
Fable into that gentlcnan's face. aIacm,llanim
mediateiy returned the compliment by baptiziug
Heli-Fi.e with tumbler OF water. The latter
sbereupon left the table. elated undoubtedly at
tho success Of his plan in securing VICTIM In
a very ehort time Macmillan Was honored with
clalIeuge, which he at once accepted. Having
had no experience with the pistol. the weapon
chosen for tho canbat, Macn1llans friends wera
greatly alarmed for ha safety, knowing that
Hell-Fire Was dead shot. The remainder Of
the day was occupied By Macmillan in practicc-
firing under instructions, and by night the hopes
of his friends had greatly revived, IS their pupil,
in that brief epace OF tlmo, had arrived at great
proficiency, and it was declared that he could
''s.,oot straight" The meeting took place carly
the following morning. Result: Tho Club was
minus its President on the first round. His ad-
versary's ball had passed through his heart. The
top Of Macmil1an's cap was perforated, and he
no doubt saved his own bacon by being too quick
for uol1-Fire. think the Club WAS BROKEN up

Southern Women During tho Re-

Southern Women During tho Re-
bcllion.
The Atlantic for August has George Cary
Eggeston's third paper on IA Rebels Kccol-
lectious," which is devoted TO tho conduct of
the Southern women during aud after tho War.
He strengthens the general testimony as to the
passionate and unyiolding devotion Of the women
to "the cause" and the herosm with which
they have borno poverty and dcprirations since
it became "loss." 4 few incidents illustrate the
temper OF the daughters OF the South:
AN OLD FEMALE REBEL.
I remember conversation between TWO oil
them,-oue young wife whose husband was IN
the army, and the other an elderly lady, with no
husband or son, but with many friends and near
relatives in marching regiments. The younger
I'm sure / do not hate our enemies. I
earnestly hope their souls may 90 to heaven
but would line to blow all their mortal bodies
away, as fast as they como upon our SOIL
IS Why you shock me, my DEAR. replied the
other :" don't SEQ why you want tbs Yankees
to 20 to heaven! hope to get there mysc1
some day, and Tn sure shouldn't want to go II
+ thought should find any of them there
This old lady was convinced from tue first
that the South would fail. aud she based this bo-
lief on the fact that We had permitted Yankees
to buid railroads through the Southern States.
!. I tell yon," she would say, " that's what they
built tho roads for. They knew the war was
coming, and they got really for it. The railroads
will whip ,1s, you may depend. What else were
the7 made for ? We got on well enough with
out them. and We oughtn't to bare let anybody
build them" And no amount OF reasoning
would serve to shake her conviction that the peo-
pie of tho North had built all our railroads with
treacberous intent, though tho stock OF the
ou1y road she had ever seen was held very large
II BY people along it's line. many OF whom were
her own friends.
YOUNG REBEL N PETI1coAT5.
4 young girl, ordinarily OF q very gentle dig
position. astonished Federal Colonel one day
by an outburst OF temper which served at least
to show the oar':4stness OF her purpose to up
hold her side OF tho argument. She lived in .
nart Of tbs countr,- then for the first time held
by the Federal army, and Colonel, with some
members Of his STAFF maize her family the uR-
willing recipients OF call one morning. See
inr the piano open, the Colonel asked the young
]a{ly to play, but ehe declined. He then went
to the instrument himself, but be he'd hardly
becnu to plav when the damsel. raising the
piano top, severed nearly all the strings Will q
hatchct, saying to the astonished performer, as
she cid Ho,
"Th..'s my piano, and it shall not giTe you
,,,;nute's Measure" The Colonel bowed, apollo
gized, and replied
..If all your people are as ready as yon to
make coety eacrihces, re might as well 30
home" -.
And most of them were ready and willing to
mako similar sacrifices. One lady OF my &C
nn.Intance knocked in the heads OF dozen
cas IN of choice wine rather than allow aone Fed
