THE CODE OF HONOR.
Washington Special to the Baltimore Sun.

Washington Special to the Baltimore SUM-
WAsHISGroN,sJune 2l.-A duel was
arranged to take place in Rum Row, near
the National! Theatre, about o'clock this
morning, the principals being Col. Geo!'
Ii. Butler, nephew Of Gen. i. F. Butler,
and formerly American Counsel General
to Egypt, and Gen. Greene, who is we'll
known here. All the preparations had
been made, the seconds chosen and the
pistols loaded. Mr.. Nit Jones, the pro.
p'ietor OF the billiard saloon over the
theatre, was selected to load the same.
The men took positions, and when Mr..
Jones advanced to place the caps on the
pistols, friends interfered, and the duel was
thus prevented. 1t is said, however, that
it will take place in a few days. in the
White lot south of the Executive Mansion.
Col. Butler has fought several duels. Re-
Gently he was made prominent by receiving
a challenge from Florence, the comedian,
while performing in this city. Butler
accepted and arrived here the following
day, and met Florence in the Arlington.
They settled the difficulty over bottle Of
wine, and both attended ball that night
given by the American Yatch Club. This
last affair is creating considerable talk.
The objection to fight on the part of
Greene was because he did not like to
shoot in the dark.-Balt;more Sun.
