THE WEEKLY QOKS FITUTIOSALIST WEDNIBDAT MORNING, MAR. 81, LOCAL DEPABTMJENT, Tins Duel.—The duel between Jim Rhodes and Mose Sullivan came off Saturday after noon, at 4 o’clock, on the Ferry Hill, Carolina side of the river. THE ROAD leading to the Ferry early in the afternoon was lined with pedestrians of all shades, colors and sexes, some running and others walking, all eager to get to {he Ferry. Vehicles of every description, and some bearing as many as seven or eight persons to one hdrse, were hastening to the scene. Many were also on horseback, and the reins were loosed so the chargers could make speed to the scene of conflict. THE EBERT. On arriving at the landing the party were compelled to wait for nearly an hour for the boats, whieh were hard to propel on account of the rise in the river. A SETTLEMENT of the difficulty was proposed by the white men present to the principals while waiting for the ferry boats, and after a long debate no satis factory results were arrived at, as each party seemed determined to fight it ont. CROSSING THE RIVER. After patience was almost exhausted the ferry boat arrived, and the party, (with the ex ception of a few timid persons), numbering about seventy, black and white, set sail for the shore of Carolina. The heavy freight aboard caused the boat to spring a Blight leak, which was promptly attended to, and all arrived safe, when they immediately climbed the high hill on the tell, and the seconds selected the spot for the combat. THE HELD. The seconds of the parties selected a newly plowed field for the fight, and tossed up lor position, which was won by Jim Rhodes. The distance—ten paces—was. then measured and the principals took positions. Both parties ap peared cool and determined, and eager for the fray, not willing to yield till their honor had been vindicated. The weapons used were Colt’s repeaters, each furnishing his own weapon. Rhodes was armed with a six-shooter and Sul livan a five-shooter. The preliminaries were then gone through with, and the " caller ” and Seconds , gave final instructions to the princi pal!, whieh Vrss to fire between the words “ one " and “ three,” holding jheif positions and repeating the firing until their weapons were emptied or one of the antagonists fell. This having been gone through with, the word was given and the duellists commenced thier work. The firing was too rapid to admit of taking good aim,- and consequently was very wild. Each party fired five shots, and the fourth shot of Sullivan wounded the right hand of Rhodes, striking the second finger near the knuckle and breaking the bone. The seconds then loaded up again and placed the weapons in the hands of the antagonists, when it was suggested by some white gentlemen present to call a BOARD or HONOR, which was called, the seconds of the parties, and a few friends of their own color acting in said capacity. After a short conference it was agreed among them as the parties had met and one had been wonnded in the trigger finger that the challenge should be withdrawn, and the affair settled amicably. To this both prin cipals at first demurred, but were overruled by the seconds. Both of the principals said they lad come to fight it out. They consented, however, to a compromise, met half way and shook hands. Neither party flinched while under-fire, both taking the shot of his antago nist like an old soldier on the field. The fight being over, the entire party re turned to the city, somewhat in the manner described in their going. Thus ended the affair of honor, which, this time, was according to the code in such cases made and provided. Jim Rhodes’ second was a short, thick-set colored man, hailing from Savannah, who, it is said, is something of a duelist, having fought two duels, and killed his adversary in one. The second for Mose Bullivan was Jim Claredy, who seemed very cool and somewhat familiar with !■ P ' Some considerable sums of money was lost on the affair by parties betting they would not fight. ' A New Hotel.—We learn, says the Savan nah Republican, that a colored man named Mar- Ud, from Beaufort, South Carolina, has pur chased the three story brick building on the north aide of Bay street, two or three doors east of West Broad street, and intends to con vert it into a hotel for the accommodation of colored people. He is represented to be a suc cessful hotel keeper. Fob Mayor.— Col. A. R. Lamar, of the Co lumbus Sun, has received the Democratic nomination for mayor of that city. Tire local editor of that paper says of the nomination : «> Our • Heavy ’is in luck. He has just been nominated for mayor, and at (his writing, 11:30 o’clock, the colored band is in front of the office serenading him. They refused to play longer when they heard only the Local and the printers were in the ’shebang.’ » Cotton fob Liverpool.— The Savannah Re publican, of yesterday, says that Messrs. Crane & Gray bill Friday cleared the ship Abyssinia (Br.)>B3s tons. Captain Alexander Parsons, for Liverpool, with 2,484 bales of upland cotton, weighing 1,130,319 pounds, valued at $313,- 547 54 ; and four bags of sea island cotton, weighing 1,290 pounds, valued at $1,096 50.

We copy the following letter from the Macon Telegraph, of yeaserday : Vienna, Ga., March 25,1869. Dear Teleoraph : On Monday last, Mr. Lilly, of this place, went ont into the woods WD : t< J? e * t 0 his h0 « 8 - Whilst he was attending to his hogs, a negro man came, lead mg a mule through the woods, and Inquired for the Hawkiusville road. Mr. Lilly directed him bow to Ret to that road by going through town, which he seemed unwilling to do, and appeared anxious to go round town. Mr. Lilly intimated to the negro that there must be eome £K rODg *?V hat he thought it probable that the negro had committed some crime and was running away, whereupon the negro fired , hl * at Mr ‘ Li "y- Mr. Lilly took shel ter behind a yoke of oxen and cart, and the negro mounted the mule and galloped off. The negro was captured and is now in jail. He says his name is Jim Brasley and that his home is at Griswoldville, Georgia. The mule Is a medium sued, dark bay mare mule, about five years old, and is no doubt stolen property -4h« negro having told three different tales about the mule. Thursday last, 23d inst., two white girls, aged respectively fourteen and eleven years, were on their way to school in the eastern part of the county when a negro man came np to them and caught one of them under each us his a ß d told them that he would cut the throat ot the firet one that hallooed or made any noise —the younger girl, being badly frightened, screamed ont, whereupon he ent her throat from ear to ear. The negro then took the other girl into the woods and gagged her by tying a forked stick in her month—he tied her down and violated her person and kept her gagged and tied down in the woods tor six or seven hours. After the negro bad accomplished his hellish purposes and satisfied his brutal passions, he went off to get a spade to bury the girl he had killed, and whilst he was gone the girl managed to get loose and went home gagged. The negro has been arrested, and is now in jail charged with the crimes of rape and mur der. The relations of the girls would have killed the negro on sight had they not been prevented by the citizens from so doing. Shepard Rogers. The Telegraph says of the outrage, that “ we learned from passenger* who came in on the Southwestern train yesterday evening, that the negro, Needham Brown, who perpetrated the fiendish crimes, was taken lrom the jail at Vienna, on Tuesday night, by a party of dis guised men, and burnt. This, however, needs confirmation, but our informant seemed to have little or no donbt that sneh a righteous retribution had been visited upon the demon in human shape. The j filer at Vienna is said to have refused to deliver the keys of the jail when they were demanded-of him, bat he was forced to do so. In view of the horrible facte, as given elsewhere, and about the truth of which there is no doubt, who will say the punishment meted out was too swift or severe?” Wonderful.— Henry W. Burr. No. 49 West 14lh street, while on a visit to the West, was attacked with severe illness from drinking im pure water. Life was despaired of, and it was thought that he must die. His wife was imme diately sent for, and in a day or two was at bis bedside. Having herself seen the beneficial re sults from the use of Plantation Bitters, she insisted upon their being administered to him, which was done, in quantities prescribed by the attending physician. The result was almost as if br magic, and in one-half hour from the time they were given, her husband was ont of danger, and by a moderate use of them three or four times a day, be was soon able to resume his journey to his home. This is but one case of many thousands that we know of. Magnolia Water.— Superior to the best imported German Cologne, and sold at half the price. inb2sd*c6 DR.

Secondly, it mitigates the pain and removes the constriction of the bronchial tubes and muscles of the chest. Thirdly, it resists the progress of inflammation and assists the longs to throw off the irritating matter which accumulates. mb23-d*clw Singular Cause of Death. —The disease in ducing the death of Mr. James Lindsey, on last Saturday night, is both unusnal and peculiar. It is known by the technical name of Purpura Hoc morrhagica. Mr. Lindsey bad not been in good health for more than a year past, but was net at any time, we believe, seriously ill— About three weeks ago be took to bleeding at the nose, caused by the rupture of an artery. The bleeding was so copious as to seriously endanger his life, and could not be checked only by the plugging up the nostril. This was accomplished, when be grew stronger, and in the early part of last week was about on the streets, looking, however, very pale. On Sat urday last bleeding again commenced, this time from ears, eyes, nostril, month, the secre tions and through the pores of the skin, and continued, notwithstanding everything that could be done or suggested by good medical advice, until death ensued, about the middle of Saturday night.— Zanesville Courier. A Proposed National Contention of Irishmen.— A movement is on foot in St. Lonia and other cities, to call a National Irish Convention, whose members shall be composed of representative Irishmen and delegates from the various Irish religious* and benevolent so cieties in the United States. The obiect ot the convention is to torm a central bureau in New York, with auxiliaries to iorm societies in all the Btates, for the purpose of furnishing aid and information to Irishmen in regard to the price of land, labor, ifcc., in this country on the generat plan of emigrant societies, and ren der any other assistance necessary to secure benefits to Irish emigrants landing on our shores. *An Interesting Event in the White House.— lt is said that Mrs. Grant is going to do in the White House what no other lady ever did. The New York Herald, which Is the Court Journal, prepares the country for the interest ing event in the following paragraph in its Washington dispatches: “ Mrs. Grant has not been enjoying her usual good health during the past dsy or two, ud to day was too much indisposed to receive callers. Her illness is not of a serious character, and by to-morrow it is expected she will have completely recovered.” Emanations from the Executive Office. —Dr. B. A.
