A Field of Blood* The soil of Bladensburg, Maryland, has r bloody record ;‘it has been the scene of many refined murders, in days past. One who visits, the place now, will find the field green with verdure, and here and there Sowers springing from the sod which a lew years since was trampled by the feet of men arrayed in deadly hostility. Here, on a beautiful grass plot, surrounded by trees, forms, made after the image of God, came to insult nature and defy heaven. In 1814, Edward Hopkins was killed here in a duel. This seemp to have been the first of these fashionable murders on the dueling ground. ! In 1819, A. T. Mason, a United States Senator froth Virginia, fought with his sis- husband, John McCarty, here. Mc- Carty was averse to fightings and < thought there was no necessity for it; but Mason would fight. muskets loaded with buckshot, aim so near together, that they would hit hedds if they fell On ther faces. This was. changed by t|e seconds to loading fp* bullets, and taking twelve feet as the distance. Mason was killed instantly, arid McCarty, who had His collar-bone broken, still lives, with his sis ter, in Georgetown. His hair turned white so soon after the fight as ta) cause tmidh comment. He has since been solicited to act as second in' a duel, buAofused, in ac cordance with a pledge made to his wife soon after killing her-brother. In 1820, Cpmodoy#.;Decatur was killed here in a duel, W;Qommodore Barron. At the first fire bptl* : fell forward, and lay with in ten feet of l»ch other; and each supposed himself morta% wounded; each fully and, freely forgave the mother, still lying on the ground. Decatur expired in a few days, but Barron eventually recovered. - In 1821, two strangers natoed* Lega and Sega appeared here, Sega was in stantly killed. The neighbors only learned this much of their names from the marks on their gloves, left on the ground. ’ Lega was not hurt. In 1822, Midshipman Locke was killsj here in a duel, with a clerk of tjie Treasury; Department, named Gibson. The latter was not hurt. v ; Jn 1826, Henry , fought his second duel with John Randolph, just across the Potomac, as Randolph preferred to die, if at all, on Virginia soil. The latter received Clay's shot, and; then fired his, pistol in the air. This was in accordance with a declara tion made to Mr. Benton, who spoke to Randolph of a call the evening* before on Mrs. Clay, and alluded to the quiet sleep of her child and the repose of the inother.— Gen. Jessup was Clay's second. When Randolph fired, he remarked : “I do not shoot at yon, Mr. Olay, 1 ' and extending his hand, advanced toward Clay, who rushed to meet,him. Randolph showed Clay where his ball struck his coat, and said facetiously: “Mr. Clay, you owe me a coat." Clay, re- Slied: “Thank God the debt is no greater." ‘hoy were friends ever after. ... In 1832, Martin was killed here by Carr. Their first names are not remembered. — They were from the South. In 1833, . Mr. Key, (son of Frank Key, and brother of Barton Key, of Sickles no toriety,) met Mr. Sherborn, and Mr. Sher born said: “ Mr. Key, I have no desire to kill you.” “No matter,” Key said, “ I came to kill you.” “Very well then,” said Sherborn, “ I will kill you;” and he did. In 1838, W. J. Graves, of Kentucky, resuming the quarrel of James Wats->n Webb and Jonathan Cilly of Maine, se lected this place for Cilly *s murder, but the parties learning, that Webb, with twe -fifcigjw, Jackson and Morrel, were armed and pursuit of assassinating Cilly, moved toward the river and nearer the city. Tbhir pm suers also moved to the river, but missed the parties, and then re turned to the city, to which they were ■sdon followed by Graves and the corpse of Cilly* xawyer named Jones, fought and killed Dr. Johnson. In<lßsl, R. A. House ancLA, J. Dallis had a hostile meeting here. PDalliS was shot in the shoulder, but reH*«preeL -Jn 1852, Dgniel aqd J ohnsOq, two #fech rhond editors, held a harmlefßs set which terminated in coffee. -H. V:* In 1853, Davis and Ridgeway fought here. Ridgewhy allowed Sis antagonist to fire, without returning .the shot. 14 ,** * • • Washington's Dying Words.— When Gen. Washington bequeathed to his heirs the sword he had won In the War of Lib erty, he Changed them “ Never to take it from the scabbard but in self-defense, or in defence of their country and her free dom; but when it should thus be drawn, they should never sheath it nor ever give it up, but prefer falling with dt in their hands to Abe ; relinquishment thereof”— words, says fcn eminent Englishman* the majesty and simple eloquence of which are not surpassed in the oratory of Athens and Rome. • . . - Nice JBreakfast. Dish.— Sliee a few cold bisomt, some dry light bread, fry them slightlyih a little butter, or nice gra vy- Beat & or 4 eggs, with half a teacup ful of new milk, and a pinch of salt. When the bread is hot, pour the eggs over it, and cover for a few moments, stir slightly so that all the eggs may be cooked. This is a nice dish, besides saving the dry bread. The Springfield News and Republic says: “It is morally certain that General William Tecumseh Sherman will be the Democratic candidate for Governor of Ohio.” ‘ V v u -— —-—Mjgrr 5 . News from Jackson, Miss., j& so the effect that the country thereabouts has already far more merchandise than the people have money to pay for. Good bacon was selling at ten dollars per one hundred pounds, and lard for the same by the wagon load, show ing there ha&heretofdre been a general con ceealment of property of the edible kind. Gov Curtin, of Pennsylvania, has issued a proclamation, requesting that in every part of the State, od the approaching an niversary of Independence, special observ ances be had of welcome to our returned defenders, and of commemoration of the heroic deeds of their fallen comrades. - Gen. McCook has been assigned an im portant position in New Mexico. OFFICIAL. ' *Z J Z [ Published for the benefit of our Headers.] HEABQUARTERS POST, ) , Macon, Ga., June 3d, 1865. J Orders. I.
