THE MAY-BENNETT DUEL.
An Authentic Account Of the Affair by
an Eyewitness.
The New York Times publishes
what purports to be a correct
account Of the duel which occurred
in January, 1877, between James
Gordon Bennett and Mr.. May.
The story is told by Mr.. George
Wilkes, who heard it from Dr..
Phelps, who was present on the
occasion. Mr.. Wilkes tells the
fActs, he says, in justice to Mr..
Bennett, with. it is intimated, the
tacit permission of DR.. Phelps.
According to this version Mr..
Bennett used q pistol, brought by
Mr.. May, which had very stiff
trigger, whereas Mr.. May used one
of Mr.. Benefits pistols, which had
a hair trigger most delicately bal
anced The duel is described rs
follows:
"rhe party took their places, and
the word was given to fire. The
direction was to fire at the word
fire., and not after the word
three"
almost instantly upon the word
Mr.. May fired. One, two, three !"
followed, and Mr.. Bennett, who
pulled at his trigger, and evidently
with the best will in the world, did
not succeed in getting his weapon
of. He vas batf1ed by the hard
ness, or rather the stiffness, of the
lock.
s'It was an exciting moment. No
one who looked at his eye as it
bore straight across the angry
wound which his opponent had
inflicted upon his face few days
before (while his arms were en-
tangled in his coat) could doubt for
O moment what he then meant to
do; but the Ineffective pistol ex-
hausted the 'one, two, three by it's
reluctance and dropped harmlessly
by his sido.
His second at once interrosed
and claimed that rs Mr.. Bennett
had suffered his risk and disadvant-
age through no fault Of his own, he
was entitled to return shot at Mr..
May.
''rhe claim, being according to
rule, was of course allowed, and Mr..
May took his place, empty handed,
before Mr. Benefits pistol. The
fatal disk Of the avcnging weapon
covered him rs the merciless word
Yves given, but the face of Mr.
Bennett changed as he saw his
opponent at his mercy, and before
the signal words were counted out
he had forgiven him and fired in
the air.
"This terminated the proceed
ings; and rs the party left the
ground, Mr.. Bennett, who during
the whole affair had acted on his
judgment, said to the surgeon:
well, doctor, do you think / did
right?'
~ should have been very sorry
to have killed any man who was at
my Mercy was tho answer of the
doctor; but glancing at the
shining fresh scar across Mr.. Ben
nett's nose-a scar he wears to this
day, and will carry to his graye-he
added, but with such pistol hand
as yours should have been terribly
tempted to wing him.
"'At any rate said Mr.. Wilkes,
'his conduct was generous, and his
opponents should have been glad to
take any responsibility of prosccu-
ton (if that is what governed them)
to save him from being DETAINED
and branded as q coward. The gift
of q life was worth certainly as
much as that. "

There is curious story about some native
wines which are extensively advertised nova
days, and have only recently been put upon
the market. DR.. Undcrhilf, the well-known
grape-grower Of Croton Point, died in 1877.
Some Of his heirs entertained temperance
views Of such extreme kind, that they were
unwilling to allow the stock OF wines then on
hand to be sold or any more to be made.
The grapes have sometimes been sent to
market, and sometimes left to decay upon
the vines. 1t is only now that The other heirs
have succeeded in arranging Tor a settlement
of the estate and the sale Of the wines on
hand. Among these is wine of thc vintage
of 1864, described rs a Sweet Union Port"
but suggesting the Imperial Tokay more
than any other European vino. and being
wholly unlikc any other wine Of American
growth. Its purity. age and mcllowness are
remarkable. and both physicians and wine
fanciers have a special interest in it as the
OLDEST native wine now accessible in any con-
siderable quantity. The whole stock is in the
hands Of the wcil-known wholesale grocery
house Of the Thurbers.-N. Y. Tribune,

Turkey Whether true or not, it is
sound policy for both nations, and there
are indications Of Its truth in the portc's
refusal to let the English feet approach
Constantinoplc, the claim by Turkey
through Strvan Pasha that Lord Boa

Russia toward the protecting powers

It clear that the old nations have not the
supposed advantage Of superior ability
in deception and trickery Whatever
Lord Beaconsfcld has done, was done by

At present it is very fashionable to
wear the hair cut strait across the fore
head and dropping over the eyes. A
less ugly style consists in wearing mass
OF light curis and waves over the fore
head and eyes. High combs are par
tIcularly IN favor. When used, the hair
is generally worn very low over the
brow, and at the back of the head it is
raised with the comb, either in coil or
in daldem-like plat, but very far at
the back ofthe head; from this coil or
plat a catalogue of curls or plaits fall.
