We received yesterday Il copy of John
Millions poems from the enterprising publish
ing house of Y. X, San Francisco. The
book opens with a long yarn, Paradise Lost.
He very improperly commences with a de-
scription OF hell, a topic that is never NEIL
toned in the polite circles of this camp, and
gives a most thoroughly absurd pen-portrait
of the devil. This person he pictures as
many rods in length, while tho best authori-
ties on the subject have likened him to a goat.
He goes on then to tell of a fight with a batch
of angels, wherein the devil, as a matter. of
course, gets the worst of it, being from the
very start the under dog in the fight. This is
quite enough for us. John Milton would do
better to return to his legitimate newspaper
sphere. He MAJ be able to describe a mas
querade ball or a street row, but i'll our opin-
ion he is a very poor poet"
"This will do for Milton,'' said the editor
as he passed the copy in to the foreman and
turned with relief to the perusal of a reported
strike in South Bulwer.-Sdn Francisco Fr-
change.

Two Terrible DuelS.

A horrible story of a duel between two in
habitants of Morocco is reported from Oran.
The two principals, both occupying a good
position, were enamOred OF the sam beauty
and agreed to fight for her possession. The
combatants met at a short distance from Me-
quinez, each being armed with a carbine, a
revolver, and a huntins-knife and mounted
on horseback. The duelists rushed at one
another at full speed, which resulted in one
of the horses being killed, and the fight was
continued on foot. After the two men had
received several bullets in different parts OF
their bodies they closed and commenced a
violent and horrible struggle with their
knives. One ofthe men thrust his knife into
the others throat, and received a cut from
his enemy which opened the whole of his
chest. Two weak to use their arms, the dy-
ing men took to biting one another, and ex-
PRED, the one with his teeth closing on the
others cheek, who gave up his last breath IN
endeavoring to rip open his adversary's body.
The object of the encounter was thus gained,
as each prevented the other obtaining the
hand of the girl, who must in future endeavor
only to captivate one admirer at a Time if she
wishes to secure a husband.

Standing the Test.

The following is a good one in the ray of
a religious test-good because it is true. A
minister not long since held protracted meet
ings not far from Port Austin and Bad Axe,
Mich. One day one of his converts, while
diving his oxen with a heavy load behind
them over the bad roads between the above
named places, accidentally looked back and
discovered his pastor covertly following be-
hind. The convert could not imagine the
cause of such strange conduct, but thought he
would keep an eye on his movements. For
two or three miles the man of holy orders
hung on the rear of the slowly moving oxen.
Now crouching behind stIImps, now moving
like a phantom through the skirting forest,
occasionally squirting like a Guarter-horse
across some open space TO gain the friendly
fence TO keepth field side like Il stray dog,
againdodging through thiekets, diving through
~cat-tails, crawling behind logs, bounding over
pools of water-the pastoral legs seemed
equal to any emergency. ALI the while the
pursuer kept ever near, ever eager, ever
listening, finally strengthening up and calling
