B. 11. Brodxax, Esq., has recent by mlarged anij improved the brick store iccupied by him on the North side of koad street, nearly opposite the Bridge lank Buildibg. The house is 100 feet n length, and two stories high. The tr.rc room is ample and spacious, with hreo rooms above, suitable for his fain y residency, with bath room, and all he modem conveniences attached. It presents a handsome front. It is with pnoere pleasure that we notice this pint of improvement among our citi kns.

A duel ensues as follows : “Mv name is Joseph Latti, Sir—a cl tizen of the United States, and a Gen eral jy{ the Order of Sublime Darkness,” said Joe. very pompously, turning to the Spaniard. “Your name, sir.’” “Antonio Bizar, Captain in her mo.-t Sacred Catholic Majesty's 7th Regiment of Infantry, liut your office sir ?” I ‘ don't comprehend.” ‘ Dii, you wouldn t know if I was to teb you. lam simply general of a bo dy ot men who have sold themselves to the gentleman who burns sinners and heretics, down there!” And Joe point ea most mysteriously down towards the floor as he bespoke. ihe Spaniard smiled a very bitter, sarcastic smile, and thereupon Joe took up two large knives that lay on the bar, and tossed them, one after another, down Lis throat, making several wry faces as they took their passage down wards. 'I he fellow had evidently never -een anything of the kind before, for he was astounded. “Now, sir,” said Joe, making one or two move grim faces, as though he felt knives somewhere in the region of thy diaphragm, “you will wait here while 1 go and bring my pistols, and you shall have satisfaction. Will you wait?” “ i procure pistols,” said the offi cer. f.getting Ids astonishment and coining back to bis anger. “ I shall fight with my own. If you are a gentleman yon will' wait.” Joe turned to us and baile us wait for him. “ Here ! here ! Oh ! gentlemen, Yvhere he mv knives ?" cried the keeper. “ I'll pay you for them when I come back,” ana lie then beckoned for me to come out. I did so, he took the knives —one from his bosom and the other from his sleeve —and told me to keep them until lie returned. It seems that Joe found a boat ready to take him off to the ship at once, for , fie was not gone more than three quar ters of an hour ; when he came back ; he had two superbly mounted pistols wirii him. He loaded them with pow- , der in the presence of the Spaniard, and , t'uen handing him a ball,asked him if he would mark it,so that he would knoiv it again. T lie fellow Instated at first, but . at length he took it rvith a mad gesture , and bit it between his teeth. “ I shall know that,” he said, unless < it is battered against your bones.” “Now select your pistol,” said Joe. • | The man took them and examined bitt he was satisfied they were both alike, and both good and lie told Joe that lie had no choice. Sooursteward put the balls in and rammed them carefullv down. Ihe whole party adjourned and to a ! wide court park of the case, where twelve paces were marked off, and then : the combatants took their stations t I trembled for Joe, for I saw not yet how he would make fun out of this. I “Count," said the Spaniard, impa tiently. “One—two—three !” The captain fired first, and with most deliberate aim. Joe fired in the air.— Then the latter walked deliberately up to his antagonist, and taking a ball from between his teeth, handed it to him. “ Yon can use that u6xt time,” said Joe. 1 he officer looked first at Joe's teeth, and then at the ball It was surely the one that he had seen put in the pistol, and now lie had seen his foeman take it from his mouth. He was unmistakably astounded. "Come, let’s load again,” said Joe. “ San Pablo," exclaimed Bizar, “you must, use some— some—some —what you call him ? some trick, eh? I shall load the pistol myself.” “Do so,” said Joe, calmly, and as lie spoke he cooly handed over his powder flask. The Spaniard poured out an extra quantity of powder, and having poured it in the pistol, called for a rammer.— He then put the same ball in he used before. Meanwhile Jue had been load ing his own pistol. “One moment,” uttered Joe, reaching out his hand. “ The caps are in the butt of your pistol. Let me get them.” The fellow banded over his pistol, but kept his eye upon it. Joe opened a . little silver spring at the end of the butt, and, true, there were some per cussion caps there. He took out two, and having capjied his own pistol, he tossed it in the air, catching it very adroitly as it came down, and then , handed back the other to the Spaniard. , I had watched Joe most carefully, but . I saw nothing out of the way, and yet he changed pistols with his foe. “Now,” cried be, “I’ll put a ball in , my pistol, and then we will be ready.” He slipped something in that looked like a cartridge, but no one else saw it. “Now,” sakl the Spaniard, “let s see you bold this in your mouth.” Again they took their stations and again they were ready. “One—two—three!” And the Spaniard fired first, by aim, Joe firing in the air as before. And again Joe stepped forward and took the self-same ball out of his mouth and handed it to h s antagonist. The fellow . was completely dumbfounded and swore | the rest. “ You no fire at Die !” gasped the captain. I'll fire at you the next time,” said Joe in a tone of thunder; “thus far I have only shown vou that powder and ball cun have no effect -on me. Twice . hane you fired at me, wkh as true a pis tol as was ever made, and both times ha.ve I caught your ball between my . teeth, while I have fired in the air. I . meant that you should live long enough to know that for once in your life you had seen, if not the old fek'ow himself, (pointing downward,? at least one who is in bis employ. The old gentleman will like the company of a Spanish cap tain of Infantry, aud I'U send you along. Come, load again.” But the astonished Spaniard did not seem inclined to do so. A man who swallowed carving knives as he would sardines, and who caueht pistsl balls between his teeth, was not exactly the man for him to deal with. While he was pondering upon what he had seen, Joe took a handful! of bullets from his pocket, and began to toss them rapidly down his throat, and when these were gone he picked up some half-dozen good sized stones, and sent them after the bullets. “Holy Santa Maria,” ejaculated the Spaniard, while hie eyes seemed starting Irom their siickets. “What a man! By my soul, ’tis the devil !’’- And as he thus spoke, he turned on 5 his heel and hunied away from the piece. After he was gone, Joe beckon ed for me to give him the knives. I did so, and then saw him slip them up his coat sleeves. When we returned to the case he approached the keeper, “You want your knives,” lie said. , But the poor fellow dared not speak. Joe put his hand to his right ear and pulled out one of the long kni\’es.— Then from his left ear he drew the oth er. The innkeeper crossed himself in terror, and shrank trembling away.* — ; But \ve finished our wine, and having paid for it, turned to go. “Here,” said Joe, “I haven't paid for! the use of the yard yet,’’ and as he spoke he threw down a piece W silfeH on the counter. . » No! no! no!” shrieked the poor \ felloYv. “ Lon’t leave vour money here, don't!” Joe picked it up, and went awav laughing. Ever after that, while he remained at Mahon, Joe Latti was an object both of j curiosity and terror on shore, for an account, all colored to suit the exagger ated conception of the case keeper, had 1 lieen spread over the city, and the pious Catholics there ivanted nothing to tlo with such a man, only to keep on his good humored side. - *-«»» - A Venerable Junior.— The Danville (Vt) North Star announces the death of its junior editor, Mr. Ebenexei Eaton, i aged 82 years.
