SA I'UIIDAY, JUNE 14, 1C23. [
Mr. Forsyth, late Minister to Spain? .
j and family, arrived at New York, on the ,
2d inst. in the ship Othello, from Bor

I
t
she month of June thus far, has been I
more than usually cool and pleasant here. 1
We observe that many vessels approach- (
| ing the American coast have encountered (
l large and small islands of ice, and these 1

with so far south, as not improbably to !
■ affect, in some degree, the atmosphere 1
i even in this quarter. s
- I
An account is published in the Rich
| mond Enquirer, of a curious and extra-,
j ordinary case which occurred iu
j nia, under the law to suppress Duelling*
jßy that act, whoever gives or receives
i a challenge to fight a duel which may
, result in death, is declared incapable of
| holding any post of profit, trust or emo
lument under the Commonwealth—who
j ever is appointed to any office is bound
1 to take an oath that he has not violated
this law, and will not violate it during:
his continuance in office—this law is to
be given iu charge to grand juries. It
contains other provisions which it is un
necessary to specify.”
Under that act a Mr. Graves was in
dicted in New Kent county, on six counts '
— lst, For sending a chal'enge to Archi
bald Lacy, to fight a duel with weapons
unknown. 2d. To fight a duel with poi
son. 3d. To fight a duel in the following
manner: “ That two cups should be [
filled, the one with pure water and the
other with deadly poison; and that two
tickets should be rolled up and put in a
bat; and they, the said Richard Graves
and Archibald Lacy, should draw lot
who should drink the cup of poison,” &c.
&c. 4th. To fight a duel with knives.
sth. To light by drawing lot for a cup
of poison. 6th. To fight with poison and
knives.
The case excited much interest and
attracted the attention of numerous spec
tators. The evidence produced went to
shew,
“That Graves received a challenge
irom Archibald Lacy to fight a fist fight,
2 or 3 days before the meeting of the
legislature in 1821; Graves refused to
accommodate him at that time, ou ac
count ofhis public duties ; but pledged
himself to give him (Lacy) an opportuni
ty of obtaining honourable satisfaction
immediately after the rising of the legis
lature. That Graves wrote a note to
Lacy ou the 1 Till of March, to meet him
at a certain place, to settle the difference.
They met. That Graves was disabled
by an accident in one ofhis legs and an
cle. Lacy, whose bodily weight was
upwards of 200 lbs. Graves less than 130
lbs. urged a list fight; when Graves pro
posed they should put an end to the dif
ference by allotment, in the following
way : that two cups should be filled, the
one with pure water, the f iber with
deadly poison, and set on a table covered
with a cloth ; that two tickets should be
rolled up and put into a hat, the one
blank, the other marked with the letter
P ; that he who drew the blank should
take his choice of the two cups and swal
low its contents, and he who drew the
letter P, should be bound at the peril of
his life and honor to swallow the contents
of the other cup. Lacy’s answer to this
proposition was, “ I will not drink poison
to accommodate you, nor will 1 hazard
my life with you in any manner what
ever.” Graves’second proposition was,
“ If Captain Lacy insists on a decision by
bodily exertion he shall be accommoda
| ted, under a pledge of honor that he will
■ afterwards meet Col. Graves on equal
, ground, and lodge no information, nor
take advantage of such honorable propo
sition as he may make.” To this propo
sition, Lacy answered in the negative,
saying again he would hazard his life it
no other way than fist fight. Here
Graves, under the influence of passion,
said, “ I am not, nor will not be afraid
of you; and to prove it, I am willing to
go with you into the woods alone, and
[as slated by Lacy and his two friends,]
Graves’ friends being both indicted with
him were excluded by the court from
giving testimony,) put a final end to the
Contest with knives.” Here there was a
(lashing of evidence, for it appeared that
one of Lacy’s friends had acknowledged
out of court that Graves’ words were “ I
am willing to go into the woods with you
alone, and have no weapon but a knife
which Lacy also refused. Those proposi
tions formed the basis of the six counts
laid in the indictment, to which the de
fendant pleaded not guilty.
“ The case was certainly one of deep
interest, and opened a wide field for the
display of genius and eloquence. Sub
sequent to the transaction, Graves had,
in qualifying to a commission as Lieuten
ant Colonel, taken the oath prescribed by
the anti-duelling law ; which he had also
done by qualifying as a member of the
Legislature. To fiud him guilty then,
would not only have been to disfranchise
him, but to have stamped on him the
crime of perjury. The justness of his
cause, however, combined with the evi
dence and genius of his counsel in ex
plaining the testimony and expounding
the law, was so strong as to convince,
not only the mind of every juror, but it is
thought every unprejudiced man who
heard the trial, that the defendant was
not guilty, of any one count laid in the
indictments, which was pronounced by
the jijry, who remained but a few minutes
in retirement.”
On the reading of the verdict there
was a burst of applause from the audi
ence and a dapping of hands, evidencing
the genera] sati»fac*ion it occasioned.
It was the sage remark of an old lady,
whom we formerly knew in the upper
country, that “ there was no sartain rule
till a jig,”—and the singular case we > his
day publish, relative to a challenge iu
Virginia, seems to be evidence that
there may be variations in duelling as
well as in dancing. To increase this va
riety, if the practice is at all to be con
tinued, we should be gratified to see the
system so changed, that instead of the
parlies trying “which could do the other
the most harm,” the competition in all
cases of difference might be, which could
do the other, as well as their country, the
most good. That, instead of furnishing
the kind of matter which made up the
six counts in the indictment this day no
ticed, the contest in all future cases of
serious difference between contending in
dividuals, should embrace circumstances
of the following nature:—First. Which
of the parties could and would, within a
given time, afford relief to the greatest
number of distressed individuals, and
that in a manner most worthy of general
imitation. Second. Which party could
and would, within a limited period, ex
tend the greatest stimulous to honest in
dustry, by furnishing employment to
those who needed it; or who, by loaning
small sums, without interest, would assist
the greatest number of diligent mechan
ics in carrying on that kind of business
which mitfht be found languishing lor
want of pecuniary aid. Third. Which
could most promptly pay off the debts,
and thereby gratuitously relieve the
greatest number, of those indigent fami
lies, whose beds, pails,pots, churns, grid
irons and soup spoons we sometimes see
advertised to be disposed of at constables?
sales. Fourth. Which could exhibit a
course of conduct most strikingly corres
ponding with the gospel standard, and
which could the most forcibly illustrate
the correctness of their principles by the
good works they produced. Fifth. Which
could manifest the greatest magnanimity
iu the forgiveness of injuries, and most
practically demonstrate the influence o)
that disposition which would incline them
to “do unto others as they would that
others should do unto them.” And,
sixthly—Which of the parties, if single,
could, with the least loss ot time, connect
himself with an amiable companion in
one of the most endearing of all earthly
connections; and which could be most
successful in promoting the happiness o
that domestic circle in which the influ
ence of eadi was particularly to be fe!
and exercised.
Those, from a few subject- which migh
be suggested, would form objects of coin
pelit'on much more useful to the partie;
and beneficial to the public, than all con
tests for superiority in the practice o
drinking poison, or cutting throats, or ii
(he art of making air holes through lh<
carcase, either with knives, pistol bullet:
or rifle balls. In duels of this nature, tin
victor would be sure o( the commonda.
lion of the whole community, while hi:
competitor would gain instead of loosin'
credit—and the connections of both par
ties would be kept in as perfect good hu
mor as if attending a nuptial feast, oi
witnessing the first -christening whicli
followed it.
A proposition in our advertising co
lumns will be found, for supplying tin
city with water, —the persons mak rig i(
suppose, for reasons which they give, that
let who will be the contractors in thi:
case, the tubes or pipes should be sunk
into the ground to an average depth o
about ten feel; and the expense of this
they estimate as follows:
Ditcliing mut filling, per yard, 000
Tubus, per do ISO per yard.
■1 50 per yard.
The line of tubes, they say, “ ought to
extend through the city and discharge a<
the river batik, that it may be drawn oil
at pleasure for the convenience of con
necting cross lines of tubes, which may
be of smaller size.”

On Wednesday last a load of prime

, The Cheraw Intelligencer gives an
account of a Gold Mine, recently disco
vered in North Carolia, the ore of which
is uncommonly rich—and we have before
heard, that some time ago a gentleman
near the place alluded to, took up a large
piece of ore on his land, which, from its
weight and appearance, he was induced
to send to Philadelphia, where it brought
him several hundred dollars. But we
strongly suspect that the best mode of
obtaining gold from any part of our
country, would be by procuring it from
the surface —that is, from such crops as
industry and attention to agricultural
improvements would insure. Gold thus
obtained generally wears better than that
which is acquired by any sudden and
extraordinary occurrences.
Nine hundred and fifteen passen
gers from Europe, arrived at Quebec
from the 20th to the 22d May.
Fo» THE CHRONICLE.
As the citizens are to meet on the
subject of supplying the city with
' wa * er > I beg leave, while I should be
i g* a d la sec some practical plan adopt
od which might not deceive as to its
or expense, to remark,
that the estimates hitherto made seem
only to embrace the expense of bring
ing the water into one street, or one
s s P ftt of the city, without considering
the vast expense of the cross pipes
. the ramifications of pipes re
quisite to supply the whole place,—
and this expense, I suspect, will not

* told that the estimates made for sup
■ plying the town of Colombia, S. C.
f with water were only about ten or
. twelve thousand dollars, but that six
? ty thousand have already been ex
, pended in the progress of the works.
, In the estimates here made, nothing
t is calculated upon what may be de-
I manded for the use of the spring, and
! as this is private property, it may
j not be given up for the use of the
city without due compensation. It
may be well to have the subject duly

LEARNED DUTCHMAN.
A phenomenon has appeared ai
, Amsterdam in the shape of a DutcL
Improvisator. This individual
a distinguished merchant, named
5 Clercq, although only 27 years ol
age, has acquired a thorough know
ledge of history, and of Greelc, Latin,
1 Spanish, Italian, French, English,
German, and Dutch literature. He
1 recites by turns, and with enthusiasm,
; the poems of Calderon, Tasso, Vol
-1 taire, Byron, and Schiller. To all
; this knowledge lie joins the inspira
-5 tion which alone creates a poet; and
I what is very extraordinary, his poe
i try is almost wholly extemporaneous.
. Among the subjects which have thus
f been illustrated by his genius, one of
- the most remarkable was “ Melpo
, niene,” proposed to him in the pre
sence of the Institute. Commen
! cing with the dramatic art in its fee
ble infancy, he followed it in its vigor
ous youth, under Aeschylus, Sopho
' cles, and Euripides; depicted in
several brilliant passages (the truth
of which was acknowledged by the
learned Greek scholars of the Insti
■ tute) the distinguishing character of
: each of those three poets ; and thence
passed to Italy, to f ranee, to Eng
land, to Germany, and back to Hol
-1 land ; taking a rapid but admirable
i view of the dramatic literature of
; those countries.
' Snuff. —The Boston Statesman
> contains an article on the subject of
1 taking Snuff. The writer thinks it a
■ very foolish practice for snuff takers
to purchase cheap snuff because they
- can get more for the same money, as
* “ the number of times you sneeze is
■ the thing to be regarded, and not the
■ number of pinches you take. The
( loudness of the Report in sneezing
1 should also be taken into considera
-1 tion. A man with poor snuff in his
* nose, makes but little noise at all.—
■ There should always bean impressive
r depth,—a strong, sonorous emphasis
to the sneeze of a well-bred man,
more especially if he mingles with
* genteel society. The goodness of
4 the snuff is all-important. Take for
" instance the nose oj a man of small
I stature. You Jill it up with snuff.—
y It tickles his smellers, but stuffs up
his head a great deal , and his nose
* becomes very sore. Take on the
V other hand the GOOD SNUFF.—
y You cram your thumb and fore fin
ger with good snuff. It explodes
e like a bomb in your nostrils and af
fords instantaneous relief. The 1
whole frame of the little man is con- j
vulsed ; his eyes are filled with tears j.
o of joy; his nose and mouth arc over
it flowing with gratitude. •
e In order to test the advantages on 1
:- good snulfover poor, he proposes the j;
g following experiment. Let live men 1!
i- stand in one row, with their hats off, J -
and their noses elevated—Let them 1 1
a charge and lire regularly, at the word |
i- snuff-lakers , take care to fire with | ]
n Rappee— Ready — aim —sneeze !— |,
s Then let them charge with the Yel- j
:s low Scotch , &c. The loudness of j s
is the Report , and the promptness with'
i- which they discharge their pieces,
0 shall decide the strength ofthediiicr
d ent kinds of snuff.
