The Duel In st. James,

The following particulars of this lament
able affair are from the Donaldsonville
Chief of the twenty instant:
A fatal duel occurred in the parish of St.
James last Tuesday morning, in which Dr.
Charles Gray and Mr.. Dennis j. Richard
appeared as principals, Messrs j. R. Gallup
and E. n. Bean acting as seconds for the
former, and Messrs. F. P. Poche and
Camille Mire for the latter. The weapons
used were Smith g. Wesson revolvers, dis.
tance fifteen PAGES. Two shots were fred
without effect. and it was supposed the at
fair would be amicably settled at this Juno
ture, but Mr.. Gallup insisted upon another
fire, contrary to the evident wishes of both
principals and the other seconds. At the
third tire DR.. Gray fell dead, shot through
the heart, and Mr.. Richard received a very
serious wound in the stomach, which NAV
yet result in his death, although he was
alive at last accounts and the physicians
expressed hopes of his recovery.
DR.. Gray was popular and experienced
physician, having served with credit in the
British and Union armies, and his death is
universally deplOred in st. James, He was
charitable and kind hearted, and his loss
will be severely felt among the poor and
needy. The difficulty grew out OF the re.
cent misunderstanding between Messrs.
Richard and jackson Of the Sentinel, and
was not of such nature as to demand the
blood Of either party. Mr.. Gallup is said
to have acknowledged upon the 'ield of
honor" that he alone was responsible for
the tragic termination Of the affair. The
seconds of DR.. Gray have left for parts un-
known, while Messrs. Poche and Mire have
been placed under $4,000 bonds to answer
the charge of being accessory to the crime
of murder

ORLEANS WEDNESDAY AUGUST 26 1874
Address of Judge Beattie.

On Saturday. the fifteenth instant, Judge
Beattie always noted for his remarkable
fairness of mind delivered an address be-
fore 500 people of Lafourthe. The Judges
dexterity in political life has brought aim
to a sphere of eminence among his op-
ponents. His business intercourse has al.
ways commanded respect, and his social
qualities have gained for him the admira-
ton of all honest men. The Judge ex-
planned himself in an Independent man.
ner, asking no favors and giving none but
his good advice. He expressed himself in
favor of General Grant for a third term
for the reason that change is not reform,
and can not bring it about. He.advocated
the civil rights BILL free thought, free
speech and freedom of the press. He
spoke at great length on the govern
pletely demoralized the instigators
of bad government in Louisiana, to.
gether with heavy taxation. In q
great measured he blamed Democrats for
being instrumental in causing the corrup-
ton which has prevailed. Not satisfied
with this, the Judge in few clear remarks
showed to the Republicans their errors in
some matters of Importance. He proved
to them the evils perpetrated by oppression
against vindictive foe. The judges speech
was most noted for the picture Of calamity
SHOWN from q StanOpOlnt Wnlcn Oo10ll the
South in the assassination of Abraham Lin
coin. We greatly admire Judge Beattie's
doctrine, ana hope to see him visit Terre.
bonne parish and quash this spirit of haired
which now predominates in the hearts of
those who dislike to see sensible man
take sensible step. We invite him when
we will be certain to make lengthy detail
of his remarks, as we we'll know his iuris-
prudence and good wisdom may yet appear
prominent in saving Louisiana from despot-

Another Generous Proposition-A Black
List in st. Mary-The Names of Re.
publican Pariahs to be Written with
a ''Pen Of Adamant."
The following extract is from the Franklin
Enterprise of the twentieth, and is another
example of the rapid spread Of the "higher
Christian civilization" of the selfannounced
superior race Of that section:
There should be kept and carefully pre-
served for future reference, a Black List, or
book of remembrance, in every parish,
wherein should be inscribed the names Of
those arhite men who, in this emergency,
prove recreant to the instincts and duties of
race, and cast their lot with the African.
The infamous record should be as conspicu-
GUS for all time to come as the pictures Of
notorious criminals in the rogues' galleries
of large cities. These men must not be for
gotten. Let their names be written in the
Black List with pen of adamant, that they
and all who descend from their lOins, to the
fourth generation, may be Pariahs, forever
cast out from all association with the eau.
casian race. Let all who adhere to the
negro party in this political contest be reck.
o7aed negroes, and treated as such. Let the
Black List for st. Mary be opened. Let the
names of those who pant for immortal in
fanny be enrolled. Whose names shall head
this list We know two. father and son,
who have equal claims to the distinction.

Pass.n-l'Outre and Southwest Pass.
The New York Herald in its issue of the
twentieth instant fathers statement from
the New Orleans Times which is errone GUS.
The statement sets forth that. there is eight
cen feet of water Oh the bar at Southwest
Pass at extreme low tide, with mean rise
OF two feet. The article further dec lares
that at Pass-al'O Outre there is but thirteen
feet of water. These statements sh ould be
reversed. Even at the date indicated Pass
a-rOutre had an depth of eighteen feet at
extreme low tide, with tide Of two to two
and half feet, while at Southwest Pass
the lead marked scant thirteen feet. Dur
ing the last ten days the bar at Pass-a-
POutre has somewhat shoaled. and Major
Howell now reports sixteen and half feet
water there at extreme low tide, with tides
of two to two and half feet. No change
has taken place at Southwest Pass, and
soundings still show only thirteen feet at
low tide and fourteen and quarter feet at
high tide. The survey at Southwest Pass
is in progress.

A st. Landry Mystery.

The following is from the Opelousas
journal of the twenty first:
Early last Saturday morning, an old ne
gro man, said to be about sixty, residing on
Mr.. Napoleon Robins plantation, on Bayou
Teche, in this parish, went out to look for a
COW. He did not return, and on Sunday
they began to look for him. He was found
on Wednesday in the middle of large
briar patch; that is. what was left of him.
The hogs and buzzards had devoured near
ly all the flesh from his frame. His skull
was scattered around. leaving the frame
headless. His shoes were near by, as if
they had been taken off. His gun, which
was not missed at home until they began
to look for him on Sunday, lay near him.
The string had been taken from one of his
shoes and tied, in its middle, TO one Of the
triggers of the gun, and the ends tied to-
gether over the back or upper part of the
stock, forming loop large enough for two
or three Of his toes to enter. The barrel to
which this trigger belonged had been fired.
The tube to the other barrel was broken.
Four of the jury of inquest one of whom
was cOIored man, acting under Justice
Veazie, of this place, rendered verdict OF
suicide. Mr.. D. p. Saizan, the other jury
man, not bein g satisfied that it was case
Of suicide, did not concur in the verdict.
The deceased bore a good character, it is
said, in the neighborhOod. If it was a case
OF murder, it was very neatly fixed up for
one of suicide.

A Colorado Romance.

Somebody, says the Denver (Colorado)
Necs, has revived the absurd stories told
by James Bridger. who, as everybody
knows, is, next to Kit Carson, the pioneer
trapper of all that section of country, as of
much else of the great West. One of his
favorite stories was that in the year 1880 he
was wintering in Salt Lake valley, when it
began to snow, and continued seventy sue
cessive days, till a depth of seventy feet
was obtained. The country at that time
abounded in buffalo and other large game,
all of which perished in the snow. Jim
always omitted to mention how he survived
the snowy deluge. but went on to declare
that the lakes and rivers the following
spring were so full of dead game. preserved
in good condition in the cold, that he was
able to stow up a large stock of meat for
the next winters supply, using the brine Of
Salt Lake for the purpose. He concluded
this tale by declaring solemnly that since
that storm no buffalo had ever been seen
west of the Rocky Mountains. He was also
fond OF declaring that ''Bridger's Butte" q
table mountain named after him, had
"steered around" to the north since he first
saw it, and that he had told General John
son so. who, after consulting his text books,
acknowledged that he was right.

Making q Mistake.

The intention Of the Southerners who are
attempting, by committing outrages upon
the blacks, to stir them up to resistance, is
to manufacture some ground for talk about
a war of races and to cause a general poiit-
ical movement among the whites tor the
purpose of obtaining the supremacy, and Of
deterrlng Congress from passing the civil
rights bill. But from the character OF some
Of the stories that come from the South, the
most likely result OF these infamies is the
re-enactment of the Ku-Klux laws. There
appears to be throughout the South COM
mon purpose to begin again the crimes
which made those laws necessary in the
first place; and the organization of the
White League is one Of the indications OF
the existence of this purpose.-Pailadelph'9
