Talking with a northern man, who resided some years iu Mississippi, at j ) the close of tho war, he said, In refer- I ' enco to the mooted duel between I Conkliug and Lamar: "You mark my words; If Lamar! j can fneak out of a fight and leave
the imputation on C mkling, some
how, he will do if. There nre no people in the world who dislike a duel more than tho southerners. Their love of bluster is Inherent and keeps
' thotn continually on the edge of du
els, but their favorite way of getting ;
, rid of an opponent is not ten pacer--, but shooting him from behind a tree, or when he is unarmed and nnpm IIB IWll Thnv nrr BTnaaitlnn nktia in
, all details of a cartel. Through all j those southern communities are men j sharpened In the diplomacy of duel-
Ing; yet for the ammount of talk they have on the subject there is j piobably less dueling in the south
than any part of the world. Murders are plentiful, but staud-up fights uro rare, "I remember one instance," said the gentleman, "which occurred about the time of the Cl.isholrn masBacre. You recollect it, that Chis-
holm was the lender of the radicals i
of Mis.-Issippl, but he was dootned to be eeeaeelimted. Ruffians broke lno the jail and murdered tho man, his son and his daughter. It wus one of
the bloodiest transactions In any do
mestic history. About the lime one of the federal ol.lce holders at Yiek.gburg published uu article reviewing the massacre, for which he was called to accouut by the editor of one of the Yicksburg papers. This lathr Was a coward aud loafer, but he had
managed ou ono or two occasions to j get up a reputation for dueling. The
! federal ofllci.il aforesaid had been u
soldier from llllnole, a . 1 was a quiet but determined fellow, lie took his pen and lathered the other chap without 8tlut. Then the most diplomatic duel maker In tho town was sent to htm for a retraction. 'There will be no retraction,' said the man; 'I wrote that article iuteuding to
have a fight, aud I man music 1 1
I shall cross tho river to tho Island
tl is very day, and I shall expect vour man to come over. This is all I hare to sav. i
"Ue took his seconds and a surgeon, aud waited ou thut itduud all that day, but the other chap didn't urtive. On the following day a boat came over from Vickoburg, bearing a note from the tire eater, stating that he had been arrested and put under bond f jr $500 not to leave Vicksburg to fight a duel. The Illinois rnau at once drew his cheek for $500 and sent it by the messenger. "I will present hlin with the amount of his bond to come over hero and flht. Nothiug short of that will answer.' "All day elapsed and tho shadows of night began to gather before the nggtieved native put In nn appear ance. He hail carefully waited until
night had descended, so that theio J might be an t xcuso for not fighting ; In tho darkness. The Illinois man j was perfectly firm. 'Start two brush fire ,' he said, 'and give us uu illund-' nation. As I am the challenged per son I have the choice of weapons; here they are !' '"He then produced two Smith .v
Wesson revolvers, and named the distance at ten paces. "Tho Illinois man was about six feet and three Inohef high ami broad In proportion. It was as ens' to hit him aba burn door, but hh m i re com-pcri.-attd for tho disadvantage. Tho Other side protested that it was too dark, and not according to the code to light by firelight. However, the northern party, perceiving their adVantage, were inflexible.
"Suddenly there was a loud eereaiu. I and a bout landed on the island, j
bringing the wife of the Vicksburg editor. She walled and howled, and could have been heard a mile. This, of course, was a part of the arrangement. Perceiving that there was uo lliuch In the northerner, they had tho
woman In reserve to oroata n scene. The northern party merely said : 'Tho woman has no business on the island, i Send her away and come down to work.' "Then, his last card played, the j boaster sat down by the light of the fire and copied & retraction which j one of the northern men wroto und j
ntado hard enough V, cover the case. This retraction was delivered to the Illinois man, and the southern party, with their tails between their les, paddled over t Yiek-jburg." YVe would guard the youug aguiuat the it e of every word that is not strictly proper. Uae uo profane ex-

gaily Using indecent or ptof.tne language, it may never be obliterated
from your heart. When you grow
up, you may Uud at your tongue's end some expression which you wuuld not tike for uuv luonev. It was mu d
I when nuitoyoqog. (Jood men have
been taken sick acd become delirious. Iu these moments they use the most vile, indecent language imaginable. When Informed of it a'ter their restoration to health, they had no idea nt the pain they had caused. They had learned and repeated the expiesßlons'ln childhood; and, though year? had passed since, they had been indelibly stamped upon the heart. Think of this, you who nre tempted to use Improper language, nnd never disgrace yourself or your friends. Labor Saving .M .ich i aery. There t's a certain class cf writers who have regular periods of despair over the laboring peojde of the world on account of their labor saving machinery constantly being Introduced. They say preseutly this machinery villdo most of the labor of the world, nnd the laboring class must starve. Au English writer, possepsed of good enough sense no doubt on the subject of nostrums and in the line of his profession, betrays a wonderful lack of It when ho tries his thoughts on this question, ns witness the following: "The introduction of a machine that displaces lOTj men, upon whose dally toil 100 families are depending for support, is of more tlmn political impoit, for It is a mutter of life, iu stead of one of lights. What cau society do, iu the face of this great problem, to remain stable aud pt ;; fu!? Thequcsti. ui deserves profound con.-i leration, and it is one which must be met at un early day." It is simply no question at all. In the past half century more laborsaving machinery has been invented and brought into use than in all the past history of the world besi lo. And is experience worth nothing in determining this matter? It is Utterly tabooed by tho wri or just quoted and iu Lis class. Experience teaches that tho machinery that "dlp laces 1 OH) men'' iu a certain Hue of lab r nuts a hundred or more to Work id a new direction--in the mine, factory and shop constructing new tools, and In manufacturing the labor-saving machinery, and so the "1U0 families dependent for support" ott labor are provided for. Tho iitilehyc displaced the wagon freighters and etage coaches, and on tho eve of tluir coming we were told that ' ) uu ild ') m i. wouhless. but iu fact we have to-day more horses to population than we had then, and the pi ices of them are more than fifty per ceut. higher. So when the reaping and threshing machinery was imminent, it was said this machinery would do all the farm work, and those dependent on their day's labor would become pauperized. But now the country is flooded with farm machinery, aad friu luborers get twice the monthly Waffel they did then. The same was true of nlauiug n, id and other wood-working muchiuery. Carpenters and other wood-workeis threatened to bum these devices or toss them iuto the river. Hut here we are iu the midst of a wouderful and undreamed of variety of them, and the woo l-wotkers are greater iu number to population than tiien aud
are receiving more wages. And so one might go through with the list. Thelabor-savim, machinery simply changes the methods of labor. New pursuits and fields are opened up to labor. The facility for production cheapens tho same and stimulates em.-amotion, aud therefore is ever increasing the demand. Wo won't do witiiout better aud better streets and roads, and wagon and buggies, aud houses, and so we are constantly taxing the ingeuuity and labor ot the world to protluce these for us. It won't do to louk at the world aud its gnat intelligent forces as a walled city. There uolhiug finished on earth aud there never will be. We contrive both mentally and physically, but all our contrivance is onaatlsfao tory and we agaiu buil I ou its mine, Aud so we go on, and on, constantly making new diafts of labor, aud ever will.

Fifty or sixty years ago, when the land was covered wiih forest, ami being survey od under the direction of a Mr. Huddleatowij, then the owner, tho surveyor observed such a deflection iu the needle of his compass as Indicated the presence of metal. It was thought that gold beuiiiig quartz was near. An excavation was made, but no gold being fouud in the rock, further search was not prosecuted. Professor Campbell, of Lexington, has not seen tho wall, but from thouccouuts of It which he has read thinks it Is ono of tho geological dykes toommou iu sunie pipe) aud not tho work of man. Hut oa the otlier hand, a gentleman of great intelligence, including some geological acquirements, who has made a thorough examination of the
wall, says: " The coup do Ü, as w. l
