Mr.. LAMAR, after waiting a reasona-
bic time for Mr.. Conkling to challenge
him, and thus give him the choice OF
weapons,has gone tohis Mississippi home.
We ale glad that the Senator from Mis-
sissippi did not challenge Mr.. Conkling,
for although the latter has too much re-
spect for the laws of his country to parti-
cipate in duel, he might have so far
forgotten himself as to box Mr.. Lamar's
ears, and that would have been almost
as disgraceful as the scene in the Senate
-Press.
1t is certainly very well for both Sena
tors that they have let their disgracefu
quarrel drop. This will be approved b!
all good men in the country. But thu
Press ought to know that Mr.. Lamar
does not belong to the non-resisants, anc
that giant might find it dangerous t.
box his ears.
