When tbe capital shot Burlingame desig nated the long range rifle in responso to a duel challenge, and the six footed Potter, of Winconsiu, chose bowie knives, the bellig erent Brooks and the fiery Pryor suddenly became very averse to the practice of dueling, whatever they might have thought concern ing the theory. The barbarous custom re ceived a check, only second to that which followed from Hamilton’s death st the hands of Bnrr. Two Frenoh women have now fnrnished a key for tbe total doing away of this practice. Annon B., and Jeauuetou It., two Parisian matrons, quarreled over a sum of money a few days since. Instead of yielding to thejost now prevalent mania for small swords a* a means of adjusting differences, they vigorously pel ted each other with eggs until seconds interfered and pronounced the oonteet a drawn battle. If gentlemen now-a-days subject to challenges, would act on the above suggestion, there would soon be an end to affairs of honor. Georgia papers will please copy.—Now York Commercial Advertiser.

Richmond, December 8.—In the Bo..rl of Trade Convention, Monroe, of Dubuque, had the floor on the unfinished bustose* of yesterday, being a resolution for a double track railway from tbe oenter of the ohief source of grain and produoe iu the West to the Atlantic seaboard. He showed that a double track road 1,200 miles long, with trains starting every five minutes, having 3,000 trains on the track with 64,000 oars in constant motion three hundred and sixty-five days in the year, would have a capacity of only fifteen and three quarter million tons each way, while tbe Virginia water line, with boats of two* hundred and eighty tons, and double deck, and used only three hundred days in the year would have a capacity of over sixteen million ton« each way. The whole subject was then laid on the table by a vote of IX) to 13. A resolution was offered by Mr. Begley, of Detroit, nrging upon Congress the necessity of the construction of a ship canal around Niagara Falls, connecting Lakes Erie and On tario, and appointing a oommittea to memori alise Congress on the subject. He explained that Congress was not asked to giv* any aid to the work. * The resolution was advocated by Bagley, of Detroit, Dore, of Ohioago, Hal tan, of Wis consin, Opdyke, of New York and others.— They urged it aa not only a sectional bat a national neoeaoity. The whole chipping of the West, which might be noeded as a navy by the Government sotpe day, is locked up whore it oan never reach the ocean. The cost was variously estimated aa ranging from six to twelve millions, is nothing compared with the vital necessity for it* Here is a chain of water lines 12,000 miles long, obstructed by Niagara Falls, an ob struction which may be overcome for a few million dollars. Sooner or later Canada M. Lee»ep*, the Chief Engineer of the Boer Canal, has pahlidy denied the unfavorable reports which have been recently circulated about th it great enterprise. He calls attention to the fact that in ten days no less than fifty v**o««ls saibd safely through the Canal and Mrs. Margaret Perry and her daughter, of Carrollton. III., have been held to bail, each in the sum of $5,000, on a charge of infanti cide. It is charged that they murdered an illegitimate child of Miss Perry’s.
