OUR talented friend, Col. Patton B..
Murray, presents superb issue of
his Oxford Falcon for last Thursday.
He is as sound and bright as a new
silver dollar on the living issues of the
day, and his paper Is always gotten
up in excellent editorial taste. The
Falcon has always been a staunch
friend of the University, and that
institution, we are glad to see, is
beginning to appreciate the value of
its services. We notice in the last
issue, ali admirable article on the pro-
priety of adding military depart
ment to the University, which de-
serves earnest consideration of the
Faculty and Trustees.

Melville, of this city, made IA rousing
Democratic speech which was enthu-

Col. WIN. b. SHANNON, who fell in
a duel with Col. f.. b. Cash, in South
Corolina, on the 5th inst, was IL
brother-in-law Of our townsman, Hon.
ThOs a. Neville. He was about
sixty years old, and leaves a wife and
thirteen children. The facts show
that the difficulty was brought on by
Col, Shannon's legitimate action as
an attorney in case in which Cash
was interested. At first he refused to
accept a challenge from the Cash
party, because it was against the law
Of South Carolina and his principles.
But Cash gOaded him TO desperation,
posted him as coward, and pursued
him until Col. 5. finally sent chal-
lenge to Cash, which was promptly
accepted, and which resulted in the
heath of brave and true man.

SPEAKING of the Credit Mobilier.
the Cleveland Leader, Gen. Garfield's

bought few shares, and dropped
them at loss when he found out the
nature Of the concern" Yet when Gen.
Garfield was under oath he declared
that lac "never owned, received or
ag'eed to receive any stock Of the
Credit MObilier." How can these
statements be reconctled.
