On the most recent occasion of hi
passing sentence OH prisoner convicted
OF kidnapping, the Chief Justice of Hong
Kong evidently saw no reason to inn
agine that the traffic in children is less
than was estimated, or that the institu-
tien Of slavery is less extended than it
has been stated to be. There being from
10000 to 10000 slaves ON the island, il is
not surprising TO find that pretty well
understood salable value for the ehattels
has been determined. In the care last
before the court, the market price of a
stolen child, warranted sound like a
horse, fixed by "a competent judge" at
$lOO, AS His Honor suggested, il can
hardly be wondered at that poor wretches
who go to the colony should readily
snatch at any chance Of obtaining 500 &c

irony, In view of''the morality prevailing
In that part of the world"

Paris Correspondents Chicago News.
was talking to Paul de Cassignac two
nights ago about the duello, its customs,
and those who resort TO this method OF
resenting an insult or punishing an ad-
versary. NJ de Cassignac is one of the
most kamiable ofgentlemen, and yet he
has, according TO his own admission,
fought no fewer than nineteen duels.
He has refused as many more, and on
two occasions his cartels were declined.
His father before him was broad-sword
fighter, and established quite a reputa-
ton in this respect during the reign of
Louis Philippe. Both father and son
are Creoles. from Gaudabupe, and Paups
maternal grandfather, NJ de Beauvallon,
who served in Bonapartfs army, was a
hot-headed officer, ever rsady TO fight q
duel. He hated the British, and after
Waterloo, wiped out the Disgrace of that
defeat by pricking more han one En-
glishman with his foil.
This young champion q the Bona
partist cause il a member 9Ifhe French
Chamber of Deputies, and ofen publicly
deiies all reason and aeemcy in that
bedy by his abusive Language addressed
towards the Republicans, Heis "a fight

men are afraid OF him, for he has spoiled
many mans beauty. Icouh not begin
to repeat the names of all the persons he
has fought with, but among the num-
Der was Henri RochefoH, the Commun-
mist, who escaped from New Caledonia,
and came back TO Euppe BY way Of
Chicago. l went out 70 meet him at that
time for one of your morning papers,
travelled quite distance.in his company
and turned him over finally TO the rep
resentatiye of New York paper. Most
OF the Communists have been pardoned
but Rochefort is still beyond the border,
waiting for something 10 turn up that
will permit him tc comeback TO Paris as
he expects 10 do soon In 1873, when |
was over here, quite sensation was Gre
ated by challenge passing between him
and De Cassignac. Theg are sworn enc
mics, and Paul having none of that
Christian spirit nttributed to his sanity
namesake, said something in his paper
which reflected on Hsnris reputation.
Thereupon the latter branded Paul as
swashbuckler anda coward. Liking not
these words Paul challenged Roehefort
10 duel, and the latter accepted the
cartel. But the challenged party had the
choice Of place and weapons, and he
named derringers, distance two pacesl

wish simply TO be on even terms with
you, and have fixed the distance at two
PAGES. Ifyou accept you are dead man
If you refuse YOU are coward" The
fight never took place, for Paul did not
accept the proposition, which he holds is
quite contrary TO the laws and Gus
toms of the method of Staying ones
