PIERCE a LYLE.
Martinsburg weekly independent. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1873-1875, 1874-08-08

Duelling is to be legalized in
Germany, and Councils of Honor
are to be formed to consider per
sonal difficulties between officer
iu the army, to adjust them if pos
sible,a and if not to officially author
ize a duel. Officers fighting under
such circumstances will not be SUBJ
ject to criminal prosecution This
regulation may seem of questiona-
BILE propriety, but there can be no
doubt that it will have a tendency
to diminish the number OF duels.
1t will probably be the determine
ton of the Council of Honor to
prevent all duels, if possible, by
effecting a compromise, and not to
give permits authorizing parties to
fight it out except in very rare
cases. AS it is, officers having
personal controversies will insist
upon settling their grievances
with sword or pistol, but hereaf-
ter they will be compelled to refer
their difficulties to their council of
honor for arbitrament.

The Beecher Investigation COM
mittee will not, it is stated report

public are getting tired of the af-
fair, and the sooner it is done with
and buried away forever, the bet
ter. The synopsis of Mrs Tilton's
examination before the
committee, published in
the city papers yesterday, will not
give anybody a very high estima-
ton of that lady's character. Even
those who have judged her most
leniently must now confess that
she is weak, foolish and impru-
dent woman. That man like
Beecher should have found congo
niality and delighted in her com :
panionship, is most surprising.

The negro cadet, Smith, was
discharged from West Point after
the last examination, for alleged
deficiency in philosophy. 1t is
claimed that this was a mere sub
terfuge to get rid of him. He makes
a strong case for himself in Fred.
Douglas paper. On the other
hand, Secretary Belknap refuses
to reinstate him, believing that he
had a fair examination, and failed
to pass. The New York Sun sent
a reporter to West Point to inves-
tigate the matter, and his report
confirms the Secretary's view of
the case. Smith seemed to be in
capable of grasping the principles
of philosophy, and failed to answer
some of the simplest elementary
questions.

Another Juvenile has been dis.
covered with a mania for taking

old, and recently made several
attempts to burn upa child in a

confessed the deed, and stated that
she had made similar attempts at
other places where she had been
employed. Like the boy fiend,
Pomeroy, she expressed no contri-
ton. She and Pomeroy seem to
differ in no essential point except
as to the means they employ in

THE RAILROADS AND THE
CHANGERS.

The conference of railroad mag
mates at Saratoga, at the close of
last week, it is understood, had
subjects in view of much greater
importance than the arrangement
of uniform rates of freight and
passenger fares. The real purpose
was mutual consultation, with a
view to some combined defensive
movement against the aggression
of the western grangers. Gentle
men who took part in the confer
ence are very reticent as to what
was said and done, but enough has
leaked out to warrant the belief
that the representatives Of the
leading roads were in accord as to
the necessity of doing something,
and at once, to check the hostile
currents oflegislation which threat
ems the great interests which they
represent with disastrous results.
For once Commodore Vanderbilt,
Colonel Scott and the Erie people
were in harmony, all agreeing
that the crisis was upon them and
must be met, and that being the
fact, it was better to meet the en-
envy at the west than to wait until
he advances into New York, Penn
sylvania and the Eastern States
What the plan of campaign is no
one but themselves know; but, if
what we hear whispered be only
half true, it cannot be long before
the order will be given to "move
on the enemy's works." Some of
the parties to the conference who
have arrived back in this city,
have put forth guarded denials
that the business in hand had any
such drift, but these are treated as
of "ne account" by the street. The
general effect on railway shares
has been favOrahle.-N. Y. Cor.

The talk about regular tickets
and duty to party and all that, is
foolishness in these times. If there
is a single distinctive issue on
which the two parties of the coun-
try are now divided, we shall be
glad to hear of it. The votes of
the party representatives in the
last Congress placed them in no
such attitude. The true and safe
course for the people to pursue is
tokvote for the best men, and cur
tail the ambition of political roust-
abouts to get into places where
they can make spoil of the SUBJ
stance of the people.
