PARIS. April 25.-The outcome Of an
article by NJ. Clemencenu, in the Echo
do Paris, was n duel with swords this
morning. between NJ. CIemenceau and
Prince Caraman de ChlmAy. Both were
wounded simultaneously oIemsnceau
receiving a cash In the Right arm and
the prince slight scratch on the shoui-
der.
Ni. Clemeneeau's article In the Echo
do Paris characterized tho interference
with the right OF the Princess dc chlm-
ny to appear at the FolIes Bergere as
shameful. The writer said her fortune
was entirely spent before she was dl'
vorced and that the sixty pounds per
night for which she had been engaged
would help to keep her not merely from
descending lower, but also provide
clothes, food and other comforts OK Ike;
"What business" said the writer hau
the prefect Of Paris or any higher per-
s0nage to prevent her from going upon
the stage OF the FOlies Bergere? What
was the honor OF the ChimaY family 70
them?"
The Prince de ChImay sent chal-
lenge 20 n. Clemenceau by Sobeig: the
well known fencing master and NJ. dc
Berda. n. Clemenceau'B SECONDS were
NJ. George Perrin and n. Ranc. The
Prince de ChimRY refused to allow the
matter TO be referred TO an arbitrator
nnd insisted upon an npology or duel
NJ. Clemenceau declined 10 apologize:
The Prince de Chlmay chose swords and
the fight was very lively. the Prince de
Chimay ripping a severe wound IN the
shoulder OF his RntRg0nist between fhe
great pectornl muscle and the deltold:
The flesh was torn OF on the point or
the sword, but no serious consequences
are expected by the surgeons.
Tho Princess de ChlmaY Is plctoriaily
represented all over Paris in poses
plastiques, in every variety OF dress ana
undress. Crowds gather around the
pictures.

WARMING.

We wish to caution all users of Simmons
Liver Regulator on subject of the deepest
interest and Importance to their health
perhaps their lives. The sole proprietors
and makers of Simmons Liver Regulator
learn that customers are often deceived by
buying and taking some medicine of a
similar appearance or TASTE believing it to
be Simmons Liver Regulator We warn
you that unless the word Regulator is on
the package or bottle, that it is not Simmons
Liver Regulator. No one else makes, or
ever has made Simmons Liver Regulator, OF
anything He'd Simmons Liver Regulator,
but ]. II. Zeilin & Co., and no medicine made
by anyone else is the same We alone can
put 1t up, and we cannot be responsible, il
other medicines represented as the same do
not help you as you are led to expect they
will. Bear this fact we'll in mind, ifyou have
been IN the habit of using a medicine which
you supposed to be Simmons Liver Regula-
tor because the name was somewhat like
it..and the package did not have the word
Regulator on it, you have been imposed
upon and have not been taking Simmons
Liver Regulator at all The Regulator has
been favorably known for many years, and
all who use it know how necessary it is for
Fever and Ague, Bilious Fever, Constipa-
ton, Headache. Dyspepsia, and all disorders
arising from a Diseased Liver.
We ask you to look for yourselves and
see that Simmons Liver Regulator, which
you can readily distinguish by the Red 2
on wrapper, and by our name, is the only
medicine called Simmons Liver Regulator.

THE PASSING OF SWINSON.

AS the ARGUS suggested few
days ago, it is to be hoped that
the rough experience of Swinson-
the only original Abbott Lin
his checquered political career,
will lead him back to the fold of
Democracy, wherein the people,
and not "The Pie Brigade" rule;
where integrity in the expendi-
ture of public funds is required
and practised; where all men are
treated fairly-with special. privi-
leges to none.
Poor Swinson Were he big
ger man, we might compare him
to that historic character who said
to Cromwell, "Be just and fear
not
If Swinson had served Democ>
racy with but half the zealand
none of the s'straddle'' e''-with
which he sought to serve the Rep
Poplicans, it would LOT have
treated him thusly.
But let us hope that as he re-
turns from, his downfa' in Raj
eigh to his Bee Farm in Wayne,
a sadder but a wiser man. the
gently crepitate song Of the bees,
SO beautifully described by Vir
gil in his Fourth Georgia, may
soothe him into frame Of mind,
and their coruscating flights as
they seek the blooming willows
of early spring comfort him with
the promise of a rich harvest OF
honey in May.

When the time came to meet,
Each man was in his seat
And ready to greet,
Any proposition to trade.
After hoodle intent,
Pell-mell and hell bent,
To Raleigh they went.
The Pie Counter Brigade,
Each ready to flop.
To Rad or to PoT,
Whichever was OH top,
Was the game that they played
Skinner led the minority
Butler led the majority,
The devil the whole posse nority
OF the Pie Counter Brigade.
They caucdssed and adjourned
To scald microbes then returned,
And swore they'd be burned
If they evei. betrayed,
Or ever went back
On their brother in black
Who stood I'd the rack
When the needed their aid.
And the tale that is told,
That many votes We're sold
For Mark Hanna's gold,
Is sad to relate,
And makes US regret
That such bad set
Should ever have met
10 disgrace the Old North State.
For this blot on the fame
Of Carolina's fair name.
There is no one to blame
But this Re-pop-lican crowd,
With Giants profanity,
And Persons insanity,
Old Wayne's lost her vanity,
And is no longer proud.
