Old Hiekory's Challenge.
1 The Eye

A curious relic of Andrew Jackson has just found its way into print through the New York ksdgey, to which paper 1t was sent by granddaughter of Jackson's an- tagonist. itis related in Parton's Life of Jackson that when Old Hickory was Young Hickory, just tweaty-one years of age, he fought the first duel of his life with Col. Wrghtssill Avery, dis,in- guished member of the bar of North Carolina Young Jackson had criminal case before the court at Jonesboro. in which he was deeply interested, Colonel Avery being counsel on the other side. In the course of the trial Avery was sc were in his comments upon some of the legal positions taken by the younger lawyer. and used language which he af- terwards admitted was too personal and sarcastic.
 On the second morning of the trial. Jackson, acutely mortified by the repe,i- tion of .he offense. tore blank leaf from a law-book. wrote a challenge upon it and gave II 10 his antagonist with his own hands. This challenge. now before us, yellow with Its niae,y-feaf years, ,s the relic to which we allude. We copy from the enginal:
