An Interesting "Reminiscences Of a Duel That
Was Not Fought.
lOIvmpla CWash.) TrRunsl

Edward Lander, the first Chief Justice Of the
Territory Of Washington, who was in the battle
with the Indians at Seattle when the United
States sloOp-of-war Decatur lay in Duwamish
Bay, is still living at q hale and hearty old age
at Salem, Mass He belongs 10 a law firm in
Washington City, and is a large property owner
in the State. His brother Gen. Fred. w. Lam
der died Of wounds received early in the war
Of the rebellion. Gen. Lander was POtter's
second in the celebrated row in Congress be-
tween Potter and Pryor, "befo' de wah." John
+. Potter was q Wisconsin member, and is yet
living in Walworth County, in that State. A
speech Of Owen Lovejoy over slavery extension
offended Roger A. Pryor, of Virginia, and the
latter together with several other Soltherners,
declared the speaker must stop. Potter and
others went to the Illinoisan's aid, aud free
fight ensued.
Next day Potter accused Pryor OF having
mutilated tho report OF the affair in the Con-
grsssiORGL Globe, aud Pryor challenged Potter to
a duel and it was accepted. Potter suggested
bowie knives, which Pryor declined TO accept.
Then Lander, Potter's second, offered to fight
in his principals stead, giving Pryor the choice
of weapons. Pryor declared he had no quarrel
with Lander, and there the affair ended. Pot
ter still keeps the bOWie-k knife presented him
by admiring friends, on the blade Of which is
inscribed: always ready for Pryor engage
ment," Pryor became Confederate General,
was Captured, settled in New York, became
noted lawyer, and is now $4,000 Tammany
Judge in that city.

fields OF grain. is il any wonder that these
men hailed the advent Of the white man with
delight2
Now they may live in peace, increase their
herds, aud till the ground in perfect safety. The
hashOnas live in round huts 10 or - feet in
diameter, and four feet or moro high. They
are made Of small poles placed perpendicularly
on the ground, close together, and fashioned
with the bark of a tree. The entire inside Of
the poles is pastered with mixture Of earth
and water. The roofs are also made Of small
poles, an joining az point IN the center, some-
what higher than tho walls. They are then
thatched with grass.
Every village has place set apart FOR the
grauaries, which are constructed much like
the huts, but often upon high 8ud solitary gran
ito powders, thus making access most difficult.
In these storchouses yon viii find corn, hair
corn, and the very finely ground meal Of cach;
also rice, and in the proper season potatoes,
tomatoes, and ground-nuis. Lying about the
ground there will very likely be purnpk ms,
which the Mashonas raise in large numbers.

The Mashona tobacco, especially that known
as tho MiHyOka,' is considered 10 be very
good by a large number Of white men, who

The Mashonas, unlike THEN neiChbors on the
east aud west, arc far from warlike, and, con-

baIbarous practices invariably found among
such people. They are a quiet and peaceful
tribe IL they may be so called, and as their
physiugnOmies indicate. For many decades
they have been subGued and harassed by the
Matabele and other neighb0ring tribes, aud
this accounts for tho lack Of that manly bear

among them.

The Grant Monument Scandal.
n.---..- n.....lIL.-.-.

IL will not be at all surprising II some foul
scandal shall be revealed in connection with
the Grant monument fund of New York. The
whole attempt to build monument 10 Gen.
Grant in New York has been more or less of a
scandal because il has been characterized by a
mcanness aud niggardliness on the part OF the
New York people, which las disguised the in
hsbitants Of every other part Of the United
States. The New Workers could easily raise all
the money necessary 10 build a magnificent
monument 10 Gen. Grant, but they are far
from having secured the requisite sum, aud it
looks as though the bad management Of the
trustees Of the monument fund will cause the
whole enterprise 10 collapse and end in failure
