A Pittsburg, Pa, dispatch, Of a re-
cent date, say: The statement that
Senator Wade Hampton has been i'll
vitcd to deliver u lecture torthc Grand
Army ofthc Republic in this city has
been. denied here and elsewhere, and,
to set at rest all rumors, the lecture
committee to-day gave Iialnpton's let
ter Of acceptance for publication. The
letter is dated Columbia, South Caro-
lima, and the pith Of it is as follows {:
"Owin9 to The physisal disability un-
der which [ labor at present have
been forced to decline all invitations
to deliver public addresses, but the in
vitation you extend is so cordial and
significant that shall try to make an
exception in its favor. II seems to me
that no surcr mode to restore harmony
between the two sections OF the coun-
try SO lately contending in arms can
be found than to bring the old soldiers
of tho two armies into friendly consul
tation. Brave men arc apt TO be- gen
crouS, and if those who once opposed
each other in battle could now meet
as citizens Of a common country, actll-
atcd by the desire of restoring har-
mony and cultivating peace among all
classes, we should soon see the bitter
sectional feelings which politicians ere
fostering for their own selfish crds
laid at rest forever. Your invitation
has this end in view. as / understand
it. and | shall gladly cooperate Will
you in this laudable object. 1t will
not be in my power to deliver an al.
dress just now, but shall be happy tc
do so at some future time which will

ReminisceRce of 4 Fatal Duel Near
NashyiIIe-The Bullet Coated with
Arsenic-FIight and Shocking
Death OF the Villain.

Cincinnati Enquirer.l
1t wss at daybreak, on the 11th of
May, 1885, that two wel-dressed gen
tlemen appeared in small grove,
about two miles south of Nashville,
Tenn, and salutcd each other with
freezing politeness. They were DIR.
Bernards, a young physician, and
Carlos Dupont, lawyer from New
Orleans. +
The night before they had had an
animated conversation about lady in
a gambling den on Main street.
The conversation finally resulted in
4 quarrel, during which Dupont had
spat in the face of DR.. Bernards.
The latter had promptly challenged
the lawyer, and they were now at the
grove to fight out the duel with pis-
tols till one or the other of them was
dead.
Their seconds and TWO sur c ms
were with them. The scconas meas
ured off the distance-ten feet-and
then ordered

70 fire. Both fell woupded to the
GROUND. DIR. BernardS had received Il
wound in his right hip. He was not
severely injured. But Dupont had
been shot through the right lung. He
uttered fearful yells and shrieks, gasp
ing out again and again that some
thing was burning intolerably in his
wohnd.
While DR.. BernaEdS was helped into
a carriage waiting close by, Dupont'~
cries became more and more heart
rendering, and he expired a few min
utes afterwards in the most intense
agony.
His surgeon found the bullet in the
back Of the victim, and, without cx-
amining it very closely, wrapped it up
in a piece Of white paper, and put it
in his pocket.
Then he and Duponts seconds car
ried the corpse into another carriage,
which the surgeon, DR.. Ingalis, alone
drove back to Nashville.
Public Spiuion was at that time, in
the Capitol of Tennessee, rather favor
able to duelists, and no efforts wer,
made to bring DR., Bcrnards and the
seconds to justice.
After hiding for week, all Of then
made their appearance again in public
with the utmost concern.
Most of their aG4uaintanccs did no
shun theirsociety at all, and not few
of the more reckless young men o
Nashville even made q sort Of hero 0
