An Editorial Duel.

Journalism in California has not
always been conducted in the digni-
fed manner most becoming the pro-
fession. In its early stages it was
often characterized by personal bit
terness and freedom of expression.
In the line OF vituperative warfare
there was no more vigorous knight of
the quill than 3. +. Washington,
commonly known as "Frank.' In
1854 this worthy old scion of proud
Of. F. "" was one of the editors of
The Times and Transcript, which
Fitch " Co. had then removed from
Placer to this city. He became in
volved in controversy with c. A
Washburn, of the notorious Wash
burn family, who was then the lead
ing editorial writer of The Alta Cal
itornia. In Singing vituperative ad-
jectives Washburn was no match for
the vigorous old Yirginian, and find
lag he was being worsted in the con
troyersy he chose to consider him
self insuted, and sent Washington a
challenge to mortal combat, which
was very promptly accepted.
THE ENCOUNTER
Took place at a point between the
Bay shore and the old San Jose road,
on the moralng of March 81, 1854.
The weapons were rifles: distance
fifty PAGES. The affair was arranged
by Benjamin S. Lippincott aad
George Wilkes, who acted as sec-
onds for WasAburn, and by Pail. I.
Herbert then member of the AS
sembly, afterward Il member of Con-
gresS, audi. Watson, for Washington.
Ii was badly managed throughout. At
the first fire, owing to som. mi,un-
derstanding in regard 10 tle word,
the rifle OF Washburn WAS tiiseharg d,
Washington h,viag handed his
weapon u his sccoud, who ia his eX-
citement discharged it high ia the
air. On tue second attenpt Wash
burn's piece was &C ;ilentaily dis
charged On II earth. The third at
tempt Was more success ul, both
managing t. dist'i rye thcir weapons
at tae word, out neither was iniured,
ashingtoa's buiiet passing harm
lesSty through his opponents hat.
The fourth exchange of shots was iil-
effective. but left them both tliirsting
ior blood. The weep ms We're loadcd
again, and at the word they fired sim
u.uneousiy. Washington WAS un-
harmed, but his adversary fell seri-
ousiy wounded. the bullet having
entered under his left arm, shatter-
ing the point of his sh ouldcr- blade
and lodging in the back.
HISTORY OF THE PRINCIPALS.
This ended the atfnr, Washing
ton resumed his desk and continued
to occupy it until he WAS appointed
Collector of the Port, nader the Bu-
chanal administration. During his
incum aeaty the Custom House be-
cam the ssy .um If broken d swn
SouThern politicians, whence it WAS
darisise.y called the Virginia Peer
house" Subsequently Washington
became the leading editor Of The Ex-
amiaer and retained that position
until his death, about four years ago.
Washbarn recovered to become man,
of note. The civil war made him,
like many Others, statesman. He
drifted East. and like all the rest of
the Washburns got to Congress.
Then he was sent 10 Paraguay As

A Poets Tribute to Custer.

James Barron Hope, Of Virginia,
pays the following tribute to Custer
and his devoted band:
1t is impossible for the general public
to appreciate the daring of Custer and
his command. 1t was as splendid as
that Of the 600 at B~alaklava, but with
out the stimulant that the English
horsemen had. They rode down upon
the Russian gnnners with the eyes of
the French, the Sardinians, the Turks
may, the eyes of all Europe-upon
them; and If they saw death before
them, they saw also history with her
pen, and fame with her trumpet. But
Custer and his men saw none of these
inspirations. In a wild and savage
country, in the solitude of a wilderness
and against a barbarous foe, they rode
to an awful death, with nothing to ami
mate them save a of duty; and
the men who fell on the Little Horn
will take up the right Of the line OF
shadowy heroes who died in the Balak-
lava Valley. Tears and honor for the
dead, and for the living the full meas
ure Of a just responsibility.
