We have seen parties from Blakely, fifty miles distant, wto report a plenty of rain. In some sections conside;able wind baa accompanied the rain clouds, and a great deal of corn baa been blown down, especially on fresh, light lands.

The rotten in Paris, has because of time since the < not This bloody yelic of barbarism, this modern sob«i)tat#£^ the ancient ordeal of battle, with move than its folly and less than its justification, can settle nothing, can prove nothing. The Code may make men murder ers; it may carry desolation and heart-sick ness to happy homes and families; it may make women widows and children fatherless, but it can furnish no guide to the discovery ot facts; it is powerless to determine a dis puted question.*' To all this irrelevant argument we have to say, that while the duel “proves nothing," nobody ever said it did, or expected any such result. The dael is fought for no such pur pose, and it is folly to argue against an act, that a man does not accomplish that which he had no idea of accomplishing. Does the law make restitution of the stolen goods when it condemns the thief to the penitentiary ? Is the dead victim restored to life by the act of hanging his victim on the gallows ? Duels are fought to avenge wounded honor, to wipe out insults, to punish for flagrant wrongs, to secure immunity from future aggression— never to establish any fact, except, perhaps, that a man is not afraid to fight. The duel is simplj one of the modes of resenting inju ries, and its defenders only claim for it that, assuming that wrongs ought to be resented, it is the fairest and most honorable and de cent mode of procedure ; while, on the score of humanity, it is, as a general rule, far less sanguinary and bru'al, and, we may add, “ barbarous,” than a street fight with knives and pistols ; and infinitely preferable, on the score of manliness, to a blow in the dark, or when your antagonist is unarmed. This is all that has ever been or can be said in favor of a resort to arms under the code. No man has ever attempt ed to defend it as consistent with the injunctioni of our divine religion which teaches love for our enemies, and that when one cheek is smitten, the other should e meekly turned to the smiter. How many, I ask, even among good Christian men, act upon this principle ? Is not the doctrine of resentment for wrongs almost universally re cognized practically among all classes? If this be so, the manner of resentment is but a thing of taste and iadgment. There aro no firmer advocates of peace among men than we, yet we never coaid see the reason why a duel between men who are cool and in their senses, is any more to be deprecated than a street broil or reeontre between men so en raged as to be reckless both of themselves and others. Whether on the score of danger or decency, in cur judgment, the former is greatly to be preferred. It may, and some times does, in the language of the Chronicle <fc Sentinel, “carry desolation and heart-sick ness to happy homes and families,” and “make women widows and children father less,” but, we confidently submit, not half so often as personal hand-to-hand rencounters, in which no opportunity is offered for adjust ment Add to this the fact that, while some duels take place, the Code, properly admin istered, is a peacemaker, and settles amica bly eight out of ten difficulties in which it is consulted, and we can see no sensible reason for this popular hue-and-cry against it. Much less can we, as a reasonable man, concede the justice of that public opinion embodied in and give j an infamous provision of our State Constitu tion which disfranchises a citizen if he fights ( ho.era mo> bns ,8 pre\^l nt iu aud about \-tldoa1a rtn fl degrades him if be does not • We are no advocate of violence in any I shape or form, though as long as men are hu- i man it must occur, and it is but proper that | laws should be enacted for its punishment IW PARIS— ah of Persia comments, for the first Louis NapoleoD, of the emblems of the Bonaparte dynasty. One correspondent says, describing the pro cession: “There came a handful of Cuiras siers, then two or three more mounted offi cers, then two outsiders -iu the well known green and gold imperial livery, as I live.” * * The crowd seemed startled at the resurrection of the imperial livery and, from force ol habit perhaps, burst into a cheer ! Another cor respondent says: “And, suddenly what do they see? Here comes a piquer, an outsider, dressed in the seK-samo colors that he wore when he did this service for the Emperor. Is the Empe ror coming? Then there is a squadron of the Cuirassiers, then one of the old Court carriages with postillions, also dressed as when they rode with the Emperor behind them, and then another squadron of Cuiras siers. It is just as if they had waited for the Emperor, only it is not the Emperor. It is merely Nassr-ed-Din. And then the mind recurs to the time when shows like this were irequent and Paris was gay and tranquil, and everybody a as happy except Itochelort and Flourens. Small wonder that they forget the Shah in the crowd pf these thick-coming fan cies, and attend less to the show as they see it than to what that show calls up. People say to-day it would have been a grand chance for a coup d'etat, with all things ready, if some one had thought of it in time. Mais, U\ ny a plus de prevoyance." This revival of imperial customs and the cheers with which tbe presence of the impe rial livery was received, aro regarded as most significant indications of the tendencies of the government and people. It was certainly a bold thing in General Ladiuivault, the Gov ernor of Paris, who is, moreover, said to be a pronounced Bonapartist. The show al though a small one shows how the political wind blows. So conspicuous a display of imperialism would never have been allowed had there not been some purpose in it. Per haps the monarchists have agreed that as the Empire or the republic are the only possibili ties for France, they had better go for Napo leon IV., and the imperial pageant at tbe re ception of the Shah is only to pave the way with the people for the restoration of the Empire.

Ball, President, W. W. Clayton, Cash THE BALTIMORE F1UE—ARE THE IN TERNATIONALS AT WORK I At this writing we have not received any intelligence of the extinguishment of the fire in Baltimore, but from what the telegraph has already brought cs, it is evident that great loss in money and probably iu life lias been the result. Considering the new and im proved machinery now in use, it appears almost impossible for a fire to make extensive headway, unless aided by incendiaries. Block after block was consumed in Chicago and Boston, nor were the fires there checked until a rigid watch was kept up iu the houses yet unborned. It is, therefore, lair to be lieve that the touch of the incendiary had more to do with those fires than accident and chance. This brings up the question which has been put before, viz: Whether there is not an organized band of incendiaries at work in our large cities. Tbe moment a fire of unu sual magnitude breaks out, it is compara tively easy to set aflame building after build ing widely separated from each other, and by this means create panic and confusion among the firemen. Rumors have not been wanting that the International Society is at the bot tom of these great conflagrations. If they be true, the wretches ought to be hunted down and, when caught, instantly hanged. Sus picion is natural that there is deliberation in these fires, when we see them becoming so numerous and so disastrous to property. Ranc and Cassagnac.

Mr. Henry Wattersoo is writing a series of capital letters to the Courier Journal, (of which paper he is editor,) descriptive of a tour through England, containing some racy hits at English characters and customs.

A hostile meeting, at which swords were | used, took place on Monday, July 7, at 3 o’clock in the afternoon, at Essanges, on the Luxembourg frontier, between MM. Ranc and Paul de Cassagnac. At the commencement of the duel M. Paul de Cassagnac received a iwound in the forearm. A second assault hav ing taken place, M. Ranc received a wound in the arm, which, on the declaration of his seconds, disabled him from continuing tho duel. The seconds declared honor to be sat isfied. “A. Blanc, “Feuillart, ‘ ‘Laubent-Pich at, “Raphael Lalaubi.” The Gaulois gives the following details of the encounter between MM. Ranc and de Cas sagnac: The preliminaries having been arranged— “The combatants, having removed their coati, stood sword in band, being placed at fifteen metres distance from each other, with liberty to advance as they pleased. M. de Cassagnac rapidly traversed two thirds of the intervening space, and then, observing a sign from bis adversary's weapon, M. Ranc reso lutely advanced. Immediately that the com batants had placed themselves en garde their swords were brought into play. This duel has been expected lor six or seven years, and it is certain that each of iho actors in it was thoroughly acquainted with the style of his antagonist’s attack and defense. M. Ranc is an admirable fencer; he has coolness, free play of wrist, and great agility. M. de Cas sagnac has the advantage in height and in vi vacity of attack. The slightest mistake would imperil the life of him who committed it. In the first assault, after a feint, M. de Cassagnac received a wound which being above his glove ran np the forearm nearly to tho elbow'. The seconds came up, but immediately they re sumed their positions in front of each other. Both maintained the most courteous demeanor, and during the whole of the duel a smile played npon the lips of each. Four times, without interval of respite, did their weapons meet, and each time there was a suc cession of thrusts, parries and feints, per formed with almost magical celerity. The swords gleamed in the sunlight, cut from right to lelt, occasionally cutting off morsels of linen. Twice the adversaries came in bodily contact, and then it was that M. de Cassagnac took an opportunity of pourir g off the blood which filled his shiit sleeve. Tho duel had lasted fourteen minutes, and the seconds proposed a suspension, which M. de Cassagnac refused, as he feared lest his fore arm might become wcakenod by the loss of blood. In the fifth bout M- do Cassagnac made a rapid movement, and M. Itrnc jumped aside, receiving a cut on tho upper part of the arm. A stream of blood began to flow, aud the arm fell powerless. His adversary’s weapon had penetrated deeply. Farther com bat was impossible, as tho seconds agreed. Without uttering a word tho two adversaries saluted each other, and wit lidrew with their friends." Produce, Lime and Cement.
