One man seriously if not mortslly •wounded.—The Duel fought near the Cemetery.—Two of our cotemporcries, published a card from Mr. Wallcacc Haskell relative to a misunderstand ing between himself and Mr. Houston Force. As the people are generally acquainted with the facts as stated in that card, we will not reiterate them. Yesterday evening, the town was startled by the minor that a duel had been fought by Mr. Houston Force with Mr. J. Harvey Townsend, near the cemetery, with shot-guns. The rumor proved to be too true. The parties left them in front of the National Hotel yesterday evening and proceed to a little grove in front of the main entrance to the city eemc- tcry on Fair street. Here the duel occurred with shot-guns at forty yards, between sunset and dark. It is ru mored that Mr. Force tired a few sec onds after the word was given, and before Mr. Townsend had turned. Mr. Townsend did not fire in the direction of Mr. Force. Two buckshot took •effect in the left elbow and one shot in itlie back under the shoulder blade. JDxs. W. F. Wesmoreland, E. S. Eav, J. 1*. Logan and J, T. Johnson A’tcaiiled the unfortunate man. Two shot and a number of pieces of lone were extracted from the shattered Arm, and the arm resected. The wound in the hack was probed to tht depth of four or live inches without detecting the hall. It is uncertain whether the hall entered the chest or lodged under the shoulder blade. Mr. Towndsend is in a critical condition. A warrant has been issued for the ar rest of Mr. Force, hut up to twelve o’clock he had not been found. The duel seems to have grown out of a previous difficulty lx:teen Mr. Foret* and Mr. Haskell, whjoh culmi nated in the former's caning the luttt p, who challenged Mr, E., Mr. Town send beariug the dialfe-igo. Mr. Fo r «» refusal to rcoognire Mr, Haskell a-sa. gentleman, ana thus Mr, Townsend became involved. The Atlanta b'un, of Sunday mor ning, says: It is stated, upon good authority, that the warrant for Mr, Faroe’s arrest was not issued at the instance of Mr. Townsend or any of his family. The family indeed regret it. At a lute hour last oveuiug Mr. Townsend was still improving, with a fa’r prefect 1 p cove* , Mr. Force was still at large, all ef forts to arrest him having proved fu tile. Vouchers and other papers have been stolen from the Court-house to conceal the ring frauds. Commissioner Walker denies that there is to lie any change in the Indian policy of administration. The Merchants’ and Planters’ Hank of Union, S. C., is oiganizod with a capital of $60,000. Mr. Pratt, for 20 years era and vicinity on Tuesday last Rev. C. R. Vaughn has declined a call to become pastor dfr thh Presby terian Church, in Macon. Mr. N. E. Harris, of the Sparta Times, Was admitted to the bar last week. Mrs. Jonanna Sims, ofBryfin coun ty, was bitten by a rattlesnake on the 9th. She died in a few hours. One hundred Swedes, for labor in Bibb county, are daily expected to arrive. The experience of the plan ters of Monroe Is unfavorable to this class of laborers. Two hundred and eleven Spanish Merino sheep have recently been brought to Morgan county, by a gen tleman who intend storting a stock and grazing farm. Mrs. Louisa Seabrook, a daughter of the late Senator John McPherson Berrien, of Savannah, and widow of Gen. Francis S. Bartow, was one of the three new teachers recently elected by the board of education for the pub lic schools of that city. The Griffin Star ha^ understood that Judge Green, the Radical candidate for Congress in theoldFourth District, is making the broad assertions that it docs not matter who receives a ma jority of the votes, himself or Col Beek, his opjionent—that he, Judge Green, will get his scat in Congress, whether lie is elected or not Kinchen Massey formely a citizen of this county, was arrested by the United States Marshall and taken to Savannah last week 011 the charge of violating the person of a 15th amend ment. Upon investigation he was discharged. From the Griffin Star we learn that the construction of the Savannah, Griffin and North Alabama railroad is progressing rapidly and the cars will run across the Chattahoochee river in a few days. There is a had cut in the edge of Carroll which will create some delay, after which construction will proceed vigorously. A drunken negro at Wooten station, named Dave Johns, cut two young men, named Losh and Mason, very badly. They were endeavoring to put him out of a store in which he was creating a disturbance. He then made his escape. Mr. Losh is supposed to be mortally wounded. The net recipts of the Episcopal Bazzar in Atlanta last week amounted to about one thousand five h undred dollars. This sum will he devoted to the building fund of a new church for that denomination. Messrs. II. A. Alston and II. W. Grady, of the Rome Commercial, have bought the interest of Mr. Craig in the Atlanta Herald and will hereafter, in connecction with Mr, Abrams, have charge of that journal. An Atlanta lady was seized by both arms and violently shaken for a few moments the other evening, as she en tered a room to light the lamp. No violence was offered her, and the whole affiiir borders on the myste rious. J. J. Simmons, the party who stabbed Mr. Besore iu the neck in Macon recently, attempted to committ suicide on Monday, by taking lauda num. He was in a critical condition at last accounts. The Griffin Xeics publishes a special dispatch from Atlanta, dated the 19th, in which it is stated that Mr. J. H. Townsend, who was wounded in the recent ‘ ‘ affiiir of honor” — so-called— is dead. The Constitution of yester day, however, states that the condition of the unfortunate man remains the same.
