About the Ulster.

We all know the origin Of the Ulster
overcoat now so much in vogue-how it
was the happy thought of an English
swell, who, suffering from the cold on
the top of stage-coach, hired from the
guard his storm-wrapper, called an
" Ulster - how he insisted on being
driven, encased in this, to the door of
his club, where, being recognized
leader of fashion, his appearance in
such garment created great sensa-
tion, the result of which was its imme-
diate adoption by all the swells even
they, however, only wore it in driving
during cold and stormy weather, and
never as q walking garment, except
when travelling. 1t was only when
adopted by the sports and that class of
snobs who always follow in the wake Of
the recognized swells that it came into
daily use, as it now is here. Why it is
that it is so generally affected by every
little man who can sport a new over
coat, and why it is that the length of
the skirts is always exactly in inverse
ratio to the height OF the wearer, and
why it is that it has got to be SO much
the mode among our jeunesse dore, par
ticularly in their dress parade on pleas
ant Sundays, is one of those things no
fellow cares to know anything about.

A Survivor of the Custer Massacre.

A Survivor of the Custer Massacre.
The Rutland (Vt.) Herald is the me-
dium through which the following story
was first made public There is great
rejoicing among the friends of F. Tur-
ney, of Waterbury. They knew that
he was in the United States army, and
at the time Gen. Custer was killed by
the Indians he was also reported killed.
His father has now received letter
from him, saying that he-was with Gen.
Custer when the General and nearly all
his men were killed by the Indians last
summer, but he made his escape in a
manner truly wonderful, according to
his account of it. He feigned to be
dead, and lay with the killed until most
of the Indian warriors had passed him,
and when he was discovered by an In
dian, he says he killed the Indian and
dressed himself in the Indians cloth
ing, and escaped into the forest. The
Indians who saw him on his way to the
woods supposed he was one of their
warriors ON duty. When in the woods
he concealed himself, and afterward
made his way to his friends in safety"

The Duel Storya Le-No Shots Fired.
New York, Jan. 12.-The SUMS
special, on the authority Of farmer Nc
the movements of the May-Bennett
party at the time of the duel, declares
that no shots were exchanged, but that
the parties descended to q little open
valley between two hills, on one Of
which gentleman stood, evidently on
watch; that the party tarried in the
glade an hour, during which time no
pistol shots were fired. He was standing
within 100 yards. M
The Suns Dover correspondent says:
"It is my deliberate Judgment that no
duel took place. have - doubt the
whole affair was arranged before the
party reached the ground, and the visit
to this out-of-the-way place was merely
for the purpose Of creating the impress
sion that there had been fight, when
in reality the parties were friends. This
is the opinion of every gentleman from
this locality who has visited the place
and listened to the various accounts
given of the affair.
Another Versisn.
The Times this morning publishes
what it calls the truth of the Bennett
May duel. the details having been pro-
cured from the very highest authority.
The duel was farce from beginning
to end. After one shot had been fired
Bennett said he was satisfied, and being
the challenging party he had the right
to do 80. The proposition was accept
ed. Neither party received . scratch.
There was no handshaking and recon-
ciliation. The story that Bennett had
married Mays sister and sailed via
Philadelphia il pure invention. Ben
nett is still in New York, and will re-
main in concealment until he is certain
whether they propose to pursue him.
II they do he will 60 to California till
the matter blows over, as he has often
expressed a desire to visit the Pacific
coast, never having been there.

An Able Jtnist's Opinion Of the Elec-
oltoral Muddle.
Washington, Jan. 12.-The National
Republican to-day contains an article,
evidently written by lawyer of great
ability, in which the following propo-
sitions are maintained with such force
of reasoning as to attract universal at
tention in political circles:
First-That electors shown by official
records Of the several States to have
been chosen, are the true electors, with
or without the certificate required by
the act of Congress, and their votes
must be received and counted in the
election Of President. 30 z"
Second-That the duty of counting
the votes is a ministerial duty only as
such is properly confided to the presi-
dent of the Senate, clerically assisted
by tellers, and witnessed by the Senate
and House of Representatives.
Third-That if it presented an issue
for the exercise of judicial functions,
there would be no power to decide it,
no tribunal having been created for
that purpose, and it is only impotent
for the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives, for judicial reasons, and for
any other federal authority, for politi-
cal reasons, to assume jurisdiction.
Among other arguments against the
right Of Congress to go behind State
certificates, the writer contends that
the trainers Of the Constitution could
not conceivably have intended to clothe
Congress with the power to take the
Presidential election out of the hands
of the people whenever it chooses, and
also, that if they had contemplated
any exercise of judicial functions by
Congress in this matter, they would
have provided for the performance of
this enlarged duty in plain and explicit
terms. R a-ssA~-' 5i7s -
