Duels ana DueIing in France.


During the first French revolution, 1893,
duelling was very common. Mirabeau and
Camille Desmoulns both went out and met
their foes. The eloquent Barnave had two
duels. Danton was challenged by the Duke
D'Artois. but declined Two days after an
other royalist asked him IL he would rather
be kicked than shot like dog, to which Dan
ton replied, as he was the challenged party,
he would choose the guillotine, which retort
he made good by causing the royalist to be
beheaded in a few days Under the second
empire there We're many dues. The newspa-
per men had their full share. One editor was
challenged for having stated that the sub
lieutenantS in the army deyoured TOO many
refreshments at social parties; the whole set
challenged him. The editor selected one and
''pinked him. his second flew at the editor and
wounded him seriously; and, as the journal
list lay on his bed, the whole body of Republi-
can editors called on him, and formed a COM
mittee Of cOmbatants to fight for him. This
was as late as ISIS, and two years after. in
1860, The Due d Aumale challenged the cousin
Of Louis Napoleon, Prince "Plon Plon." He
consulted the Emperor, and Eugene was 50
incensed that she exclaimed: "The gentle
man who wants to fight never asks questions
or takes advice, and Louis Napoleon added,
with wit more keen than cousinly, few
days after, IF ever bullet is found IN my
cousins stomach he will have to swallow it.

COnklIng and the Presidency.

WASHINGTON. December 19.-The Epenjltg Sta,
says: Senator Conkling is greatly amused
Over the publication Of what purported to be a
special dispatch from Washington in New
York evening paper, saying that the Senator
from New York had abandoned all presidential
aspirations for 1880, and would hereafter devote
himself to securing the reorganization of OK
President Grant. This dispatch vas riten in
New York. and made the basis of n glowing ed
itOral on the many virtues Of Mr.. Conklng. He
has never said that he would not be the next
Republican candidate for the Presidency but
has been heard on several occasions to speak of
Grant in a manner which led his friends to be-
lieve that the presidential tourist Is the Sena-

A Constitutional Convention.

Next In order, and of greater inheritance, will
be the al absorbing subject of the constitutional
convention.
Will the Legislature of the State obey the be

call constitutional convention at as early a
day as the nature Of the case indicates?
1t cannot be gainsad that there are many
garing defects in our present constitution and
It is our honest conviction that if the will of
the people" should be consulted. the whole

constitution adopted 1t would be gratifying to

Northern OutraSes.

During the last few weeks not less than six
persons have been deprived of life without trial
Ia two Of the Northern States. This is direct
and fragrant violation of one Of the most i'm
portant provisions of the constitution. But the
halls of Congress do not ring with denuncation
OF the people among whom these outrages oc-
Cured. No Southern man rises in the Senate
or House to assail the North and swell this list
of CHASTITY victims into long procession. and
no shrteking about Northern outrages" dis
turbs the serenity Of the country. The South
assumes that each State is capable Of managing
its domestic concerns. and that the occasional
