Since Gratz Brown lias been brought prominently before the country as the Liberal candidate for Vice President, on the ticket with Horace Greeley, the following account of a duel fought between him and Gov. Reynolds, of Missouri, some fifteen or sixteen years ago, will be read with interest. It was the last poltical duel fought in Missouri : The Duel was fought in 185 G, on an island in the Mississippi, some forty or fifty miles below St. Louis. The principals were at the time young earnest and able politicians—men of intelligence, highly educated and full of ambition. Brown, a Kentucky, iK was editor of the Democrat, which was at that time the organ ot‘ J ’ -t - , 0 ine Ben ton Democrats, ar , M . , , controlled by him a . IK Blair, then as now, his close and intimate friend, Reynolds, a Virginian, had, after completing his studies in Germany, acted for awhile as secretary of legation and charge d’affairs at Madrid. He had removed to St. Louis some four years before, and was practicing law. 111 IBOG the quarrel between the Benton Democrats and the anti-Ben tion Democrats, the pro-slavery and the anti-slavery men, bad become ex tremely bitter, and was made the more violent by the fact that in that year the Gubernatorial, President and Com gressional elections were all tobe-held. Colonel Benton, bad, after a tre mendous struggle, been left out of the Senate, in which he bad for thirty years represented Missouri with distinguish ed ability and unswerving fidelity.— From this action of the Legislature he appealed to tlie people by becoming a candidate for Governor.” The anti-Benton Democrats nomi nated against him their ablest and most popular leader, Thrusten Polk, while the Whigs and Know Nothings non. i uated. Ewing. In St. Louis the Benton men nominated Frank P. Blair for Congress. The Whigs and Know Nothings nominated the then incum bent, Luther K. Kennel i. Vue anti Benton men nominated Thomas C. Reynolds. All of them were “right ing men,” and gentleman of the high est character. The nominations were made in Mav. *' 5 the election was to be held in August. The canvass was conducted by ail par. ties with the utmost spirit and with great bitterness, the expression of which was, however, generally kept within the bounds of gentlemanly pro priety ; for in those days a candidate for these high offices in Missouri nev er forgot, nor let others forget, that he was a gentleman. The Congressional Disttrict was throughly canvassed by Blair and Reynolds, who discussed the issue of the canvass in presence of the people as was then the good custom. Each was aided by Ills friends, of whom Blair had a powerful one in the editor of the Democrat. One day an article appeared in that paper containing what Reynolds con. ceived to be an offensive allusion to to himself. lie replied through the Leader in a brief but bitter note. A challenge was sent and accepted. ißrown’s seconds were two well known gentleman, since dead—Col. Mitchell and Mr. Walker. These ad vised with Colonel Benton, Frank P. Blair, aud other leading men of their party, for it was a public and party matter. Reynolds’ seconds were Col. Fer dinand Kennett and Captain Hudson, both of whom have since died. Their advisers were Col. David 11. Armstrong the present Chairman of the Democrat ic State Committee, and author of the Passive or Missouri Policy, and Col. Linn, the Collector of the Port. The terms were agreed upon, and the parties went with their friends to an island in the Misissippi, forty miles below St. Louis. Both were men of unquestioned courage and excellent shots. Brown was a bachelor. Rey - nolds had a wife as brave as himself. Kennett aud Mitchell, old and devo ted friends, though then acting for mortal adversaries, tossed a half dol lar for choice of position. Kennett won. They then tossed for the word; again Kennett, won, and Reynolds seemed to be m luck. We now quote from a recent ac count of the affair. The choice of position was not of much advantage, however, as the sun was too low to affect either. The word remained with Kennett, and he was to call out." “Fire—One—Two— Three—Stop.” The principals were not to lower their pistols before the word fire, and not to shoot after the word stop. “Kennett and Mitchell measured the ground carefully. Each turned CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 7, 1872. alter he had finished and threw a keen glance along the tawney track, and then looked one into the eyes of the ! other. They did not speak audibly, yet both said in their hearts “It is close.” And it was. Too close for two such men, who had only between ! them the unpleasant memories of a political quarrel. They were placed face to face-Brown looked straight at his adversary a pleasant halt smile on his lip. Not a muscle quivered. lie stood as if carv ed from the sand, immovable and yet full of bountiful life. Reynolds’ afcti tude was none the less superb. The Kentuckian and the Virginian were to light as their ancestors had fought before them for a hundred years.— I They recognized the code. ‘j. was j v> Sy the code they would be judged fairly, string 0r sassing. The pistols were brought and load cd carefully. A grain of powder, more or less, might sacrifice a • life.— They were ugly looking weapons, to say the least of them, and of English make. On each barrel was the word “London” engraved. The stock were of mahogany, and of the saw-liandlc shape. They had hair-triggers, dou ble sights, were smooth bores, and carried each an ounce ball. The bar rels were full six inches long, and were dark looking and ominous. It was now between six and seven o’clock. The negro oarsmen looked on ill sober wonderment. The sur geons arranged their instruments and bandages. The respective friends of each principal took their positions, and when everything was ready, Ken nett called out in a clear and distinct voice ‘Gentlemen are you ready'?’ “So nearly together as to sound as one voice, both Brown and Reynolds answered, “Ready.” Kennett then cried out “Fire.” Before the word one was heard Reynolds lowered his pistol and tired. Brown fired almost simultaneously with his adversary. Indeed the two re ports were blended so nearly as to be indistinguishable, and the seconds looked from one to the other to see if either was hit. Reynolds stood per fectly still with his smoking pistol in his hand, while Brown shifted Ills weight from one leg to the other, as if suffering pain. Hudson walked up to Reynolds and said to him, I fear Brown is wounded ia the groin. Reynolds replie 1, ‘You must be mistaken, for I aimed at his knee.’ Hudson then went near to Brown returning in & short time to his prin cipal, remarking. You are right, he is shot in the knee.’ ‘I was certain of it replied Reynolds, the wound will not be dangerous.’ Brown’s friends in the meanwhile had approached him and led him to one side, while the surgeons examined his wound. He was as cool as a gren adier. Although suffering extreme pain and scarcely able to stand, he sternly demanded another fire, insist ing on bis ability to remain upon the fiield. The surgeons overruled his wishes, and immediately a conterence took place between all the friends of each, which was communicated to the prin cipals, and Reynolds-instantly advan ced to where Brown was lying—the pain ot the wound having forced him finally to the ground—and offered his hand in a frank and friendly manner Brown received it in the same spirit, and they had some pleasant conversa tion together. Mutual expressions of esteem were exchanged, and the mu tual withdrawal of everything offen sive that had taken place between them. Just at that time the steamer Edi tor from Memphis, heavily loaded and crowded with passengers, came in sight down the river. She was at once halted and stopped to take the party on board. Brown had to be re movod in a blanket, the ball having split tlys knee on the right leg just up on the edge of the joint, causing pro fuse hemorrhage and intense pain. A state room was [ laced at once at his disposal, and he received the most generous attention from all. Reynolds went to his native State in the late war and was for two years the Confederate Governor of Missouri. He is now practicing law in St. Louis and he and his old antagonist are pol itically and socially friends. Brown was elected to the United States Sen ate, and last year was made Governor of Missouri by the united votes of the Democrats and Liberal Republicans!” New Orleans is soon to have a grand Greeley and Brown celebration. General Beauregard’s name heads the list calling for the same. “Cascarilla, ’ the intelligent Raleigh correspondent of the "VYllmington Journal, thinks a large majority of the people favor no nomination being made, at Baltimore, or if any is made for Greeley. The Last Scene at Appomattox. There was a re-union of the Society of the Army of the Potomac held at Cincinnati, on the 7th alt. At this celebration the oration was delivered by Gen. Stewart L. Woolford, of New A ork, and from this oration we make the following extracts: “ Ihe morning crept slowly on— first into gray dawn, then into rosy flush. Still on ! still on ! The mists crept upward and into line you wheel ed, and on your muskets lay down, each man in place, to get scant rest, which even in the exhaustion of those oG hours of terrible marching you neither sought nor heeded. You were squarely across Lee’s front, and had closed forov-y; Ns last line of retreat. ■ ihe enemy reaching your cavalry advance, saw the serried Iffio of the Union troopers. Gordon gathered and massed his men for their last charge. Tattered and hungry, worn by ceaseless marching and lighting, with no hope of victory, with little posibility of escape, they closed their lines with a fidelity of discipline and soldierly resolution, to v. hieh each soldier’s heart must recognize and honor. As the old guard closed around their Emperor at Waterloo, so these men closed round the flags of thbfr lost cause. My heart abhors their treason. But it warms beyond re straint to tlieir manhood so grandly brave, even in disloyalty. Slowly they advanced to their last attack.— No battle yell, no crack of the skirm ishers rifle broke the strange stillness of that Sabbath morn. Steadily, si lently they came, when Sheridan drew back his horsemen, as parts some mighty curtain, and there stood the close formed battalions of your infant ry, the cannon gleaming in the open ings, quietly awaiting the coming of Gordon’s men. Instinctively your enemy' halted.— Meanwhile Lee has turned back to meet Grant and surrender his com mand. Sheridan swung his cavalry around upon Gordon’s left, and was about to charge, when Custar reached Longstreet. Assurance of surrender was given, and the end had come. That Sabbath clay, with tears and in sorrow, Southern men folded the banners of the “ Lost Cause,” and their bravest and best sought honor ably to bury them from sight forever llow sad it is that poor ambitions, jealousies of race, the wretched greed of pelf and place and the miserable hates of social rivalries, should so of ten disturb the hearty reconciliation of that surrender and for a time re vive the bitterness which you then sought to bury in a common grave. Tills hour is no time for politics.— Aline are not the lips, I trust, to intro duce them here. But when I think of that heroic past, which your faces and presence so vividly recall, and then how trading trickster politicians, for getful of what baptism of blood seal ed the new birth of the nation, seek to array races in needles hostility, to ex cite the ignorance of the one and the brutal prejudices of the other, I would like to summon a guard, half from the rebel army of Northern Virginia and half from the loyal army of the Poto mac, take such malcontents out, give them drum-head court-martial imme diate execution and soldierly burial under the apple tree at Appomatox. Mr. Giieely’s White llats. When Mr Greeley left his editorial room on resigning the command of the Tribune, we read that “in one corner of the room there are nearly thirty boxes, from the different New York hatters, each containing a white hat. they had come in so fast that Mr.. Greeley distributed them to the employees in the building. The compositors must have come in for a good share, as the majority of them, as they passed to the com posing-room that evening, were crowned with white hats. ■ —— Stephen Girard’s Rule.— I have always considered advertising, liberal ly and long, to be the great .medium of success in business and a prelude to wealth, and I have made it an invariabe rule, too, to advertise in the dullest times, long experience having taught me that money thus spent is well laid out; as, by keeping my business continually before the public, it has secured me many sales would otherwise have lost. A meeting of the State Executive Committee of the Democratic Conser vative party will be held in the city of Raleigh on Friday, the 7th of June, for the purpose of appointing delegates to the Baltimore Conven tion.

The authorities have since concluded to have the jail papered, in order render it more se cure.—a Savannah News. Atheism—lnfidelity. Atheism and Infidelity, although ; used in a like sense, are properly not synonymous. Avii Atheist is one who denies a supreme intelligent Being— |an infidel disbelieves in Christ, Ma ; hommed, Moses, Confucius, etc., and i thinks, although gifted with great virtues and wisdom, these men were only law-givers and philosophers like Lycurgus, Solon, Socrates and Horace Greeley, and no ways spoke or acted from immediate divine inspiration and authority. The latter class also deny and reject the evidences of miracles and prophesies as recorded by mere human writers and historians to establish the truth of supernatural events and revelations. Truth is op posed to both Atheism and Infielitv. The human mind, like a pendulum, swings continually between the ex tremes of too much credulity and too much skepticism. Our mental con victions and habitual practice should settle upon the golden man—to re ject everything false in’religion, poli tics, manners and morals, and cling only to the truth. Here however we are met with the celebrated question of Pilate—“ What is truth ? ” Our sel fish passions and prejudices come into play, our reason is darkened, and we are left like Sampson without his Strength to grope in eternal darkness amid falling pillars and ruins. We know that belief is commonly esteemed a virtue, and unbelief a crime—but why ? Is it a greater sin to believe too little than too much 1 The human miseries having their origin in superstition and bigotry have cer tainly equalled and out numbered those that have sprung from atheism and infidelity. The fool believes every thing or nothing—the bad only that which agrees with their evil inclina tions while the wise and good only in spite of self-denials and humiliations and personal interests,, diligently seek the right and heroically do it even to their hurt. The first never care to enquire—the second are never faith ful to their own conscience and duty— the last never ceases their search after whatsoever is honest and truth ful, and when found, consider it a treasure which no wealth or power can purchase or subdue. The historian tells us that on his way from Egypt to France, the Great Napoleon was sitting one night on deck, surrounded by some of bis offi cers, the vessel at the time cutting the tranquil and blue waters of the Medi terranean. The stars, the poetry ot Heaven, were overhead in all their glory. The officers were man anima ted argument about the existence of a God and the final destiny of the soul. One, more insolent and ignorant than the rest, approached the mighty con queror and lawgiver and asked him if he belived in a God? Tie grey-eyed man stretched forth his finger, pointed to the great dome overhead fretted with golden fire, and with that quick* concentrated energy which toppled thrones and empires, asked—“ Who made that?” The atheist was answer ed and wilted, and although it may be more difficult to silence the infidel, still may we not hope that when he thinks on the mysteries of his own birth, life and death, that poor feeble reason must need some other support —that there are more things in Heav en and Earth Ilian is dreamt of in philosphy—that the resurrection of the dead is naturally no more difficult to understand than the breath of the living may wo not trust with the hum ility of a child he too will seek, find, knock aud enter, ask and receive.— Col. /Sun.

Davis and Mr. Greeley— A Truthful Scrap of History. The accompanying communication comes from a source of the most un questionable authenticity, and reflect honor upon the nominee of the Cin cinnati Convention. No true South ron can peruse it with unmoistened eye, and the rebuke to Air. Yooihees is most withering and complete:— Jfaeon Telegraph. Editors Tcleg•aph A Messenger: Air. Yoorhees, in his recent attack on Mr. Greeley, styled his signing of Air. Davis’ bond “an impertinent in terference.” Allow me to give you the true history of that matter as I re cently learned it in New York, from a gentleman who knew all about it.— Airs, Davis went to New York to con j suit Charles O’Connor, Air. Davis’ | counsel, as to the best manner of es ( fecting his release from prison. Air. O’Conner told her that in his opinion there was but one way that it could be done, and that was to get the rep reseutative man of the Republican party to sign his bond. Airs. Davis inquired who that man was. Air. O’Conner replied chat it was Horrace Greeley. She then asked him if he would see Air. Greeley and get him to do it. ITe replied that he had no in fluence with Mr. Greeley, and that she was the proper person to see him. She said she would go and see him. She went to Lis office, sent in her card and was invited into his private office. She said to him : “Air. Greeley, my band is a casemate at For tress Alouroe. lie has been there for many long weary months, lie is a feeble old man, and he is gradually sinking under bis rigorous imprison ment. lie will die if he remains there much longer. I came here to consult Air. O’Connor as to the means of get ing him released, lie has told me that there is but one way to do it, and that is to get the representative man of the Republican party to sign bis bond and says that you. are that man. He lias advised me to apply to you. lie says that you have a kind heart, and that you wifi do it if you believe it to be right. My husband is dying. Air. Greeley,, may I hope that you will favorably considerfiuy application.” Air. Greeley arose, extended his hand to Mrs. Davis, and said: “ Mad am, you may, for I will sign his bond.’’ Mr. Greeley was then a prominent candidate before the Legislature for the United States Senate. Some of his friends heard that he had agreed to sign Air. Davis’ bond. They went to him and protested against it. They told him that they had made a count, and that he would be elected by six majority, but that if he signed this bond, it would defeat him. lie re plied “ I know it will.” They told him that he was one of the owners of the Tribune, and if lie signed this bond lie would lose thosands of sub scribers. lie replied “ I know it.” They said, “Mr. Greeley, you have written a history, of the war, one vol ume you have out, and have sold large numbers of it. Your second volume is nearly out and you have large or ders for that. If you sign this bond, these orders will be countermanded and you will lose a large amount of money.” lie replied, “Gentlemen, I know it, but it is right and Til do it." He did do it, and lam informed that he lost a seat in the United States Senate, and over thirty thousand dol lars. To my mind this does not look like “ impertinent interference. Give us a house furnished with books rather than furniture. Both, if you can, but books at any rate. To spend several days in a friend’s bouse, and hunger for some thing to read, while you are treading on costly carpets, sitting upon luxuri ous chairs, and sleeping upon down, is as it you were bribing your body for the sake of cheating your mind. Books are the windows through which the soul looks out. A house without books is like a room without windows. A book is good company; it is full of conversation with out lo quacity. It talks to you, not through the ear, but another, way. £2O“ The census-takers in some por tions of the West have as • funny ex periences as those in the large cities.
