I then wrapped a pilr of pistols in
my overcoat pocket, walked about half
a mllo lo tho houso of William Bon
Imm, whero I directed lny horso to bo

conic.
Mnjor Maclaysoon arrived nnd after
giving him . full statement of all that
hail occurred, ho wont to Northumber
land to settle tho tlmo and placo. Whllo
mo talked tho constable rapped nt tho
door and inquired if I was In tho
houso. Ho was lold I had gotio up tlio
road.
On Mr, Maclay's return ho toltl mo
tlio meeting was to bo at bovoii o'clock
llio next morning, nt thu oml of n fenco
behind Lawsho's lioiifo, opposite Dorrs-
town, whero wo had agrood to sleep
Hint night. Wo wcro on llio ground at
sovon o'clock, Just in llio gray of tho
morning, In ti fow minutes wo saw
Mr. Stewart and Mr. Kennedy coming
down tho l.tno. After iiiulu.il saluta
tions, Mr. Mncl.iy proposed thai wo
loultl cro.-s thuBw.imp ami retlio to n
tnoro private placo, whero llio ground
vtm perfectly clear. Having arrived
on the ground, Mr. Kennedy propou'd
Hint tho parllos should settle tho (lis
tanco, eVc. To this 1 objected, thnt be
ing tho duly or llio seconds, mid not of
thu principals. Messrs. Maclay and
Kennedy then retired and after somo
conversation, sleppod eight spaces and
plated Mr. Slowart ami myself ut tho
oxtroino ends of llio line. Mr. Maclay
then said: "Gontlomoii, you will un
derstand that it is agreed between Mr.
Kennedy and myself that if either of
tho parties shall leavo his ground until
llio affair is finally settled, such party
slnll bo regarded as disgraced." Tho
seconds then retired to load tho pistols,
Mr. Maclay afterwards told mo ho then
suggested to Mr. Kennedy tho proprie
ty of nn oilbrt to effect a reconciliation,
Mr. Kennedy said: "That lsimpossi-
bio unless Mr. Uinns apologized for tho
languago used in his messago to Mr.
Stewart. "For my part," ho added, "I
think nothing should bonttempted un
til tho parties havo at least exchanged a
atiot." Maclay and Kennedy drew
near to us, and Maclay said: "When
tho word llro Is given, you aro (o flro as
tpjlcl: as you can. II cither delay whllo
ono of us count thrco and slop, that ono
shall for that tlmo lose his flro; a snap
to ho counted a llro."
Tlio seconds tossed up to delermiao
which should give tho word. Mr. Ma
clay won. Tho pistols wcro handed to
us and discharged so simultaneously
thai but ono report was hoard. Neither
uau tnoK eucct. Tlio pistols wcro again
handed to tho seconds and they retired
a fow paeos. At this point Mr. Maclay
assured mo afterwards ho used every
honorable argument to movo Mr. Ken
nedy to present a proposition of settle
ment. This bo did without effect. Ho
then raised his voice and said : "You
bad batter consult your principal, and
1 will do tho same." Maclay's llrst
words to mo wore : "Kennedy is a
scoundrel ; ho is determined to havo
you hhut." I bald, "You know tho
terms wo agreed upon and wo will carry
them out." Tho pistols woro again
handed tons. After u short liauto Mr.
Maclay camo between us and said:
Gentlemen, I think this business has
now gone far enough, and may bo ami
cably und honorably adjusted." Ho
proposed that Mr. Stewart bhould apol
ogize for his attack, and then Mr. Binns
should tleclaro that tho publication was
not mado for tho purpose of wounding
tlio feelings of Mr. Stewart, but becatwo
lie believed it lo bo true, and that it
win matter proper fur public informa
tion. Mr. Stewart then .said : "If (iotl has
given mo morn slicngtli than other
mon, I do not think 1 ought to nliino
it. I never striich a man in my llfo
thai I was not sorry for it,1' This was
not held sufficient apology. After a
pauso Mr. Stewart mado tho required
apology, and I mado tho declaration
my friend had proposed. Tho parties
shook hands nnd at n tavern in tho
neighborhood Ihey nnd their friends
breakfasted together. Mr. .Stewart and
I continued friends until his death,
many years afterward. When ho was
elected to llio Assembly from Lycom
ing county somo years after, ho voted
for mo, then editor of llio 'Democratic
Press," as a director of llio Pennsylva
nia Bank. Major Maclay was .thon
about twenty-eight years of age, and a
man of much promise. Ho was nson
of tho Hon. Samuel Maclay, then Unit
ed States Senator from Pennsylvania.
Ho died soon after this affair.
I found on my return that it was Jos
cph Priestly, ICstp, who had tlio war
rant i:3iicd for my arrest. Ho saw mo
leavo with a small mahogany casoin
which ho know Judso Cooper kept hi3
pistols) and cu'pcctcd what was about to
taku place. Mr. Stewart In n noto to
mo expressed surprlso that tho rumor
had got afloat, as neither ho nor Mr.
Kennedy had communicated with nny
ouo about it, and I felt suro wo had
kept thu matter secret.
The duel put uu end to anything lluo
personal rudeness by any members of
thu l'Cderal party solongas I remained
in Northumberland, nnd doubtless had
its etlect alter my removal to Phlladcl
phla."
This duel was fought near whero
Allen used to 11 vo beyond tho marsh.
Had its termination becu fatal, its ex
act locality would no doubt bo fixed.
But tho actors and all their compeers
havo descended to tho silent grave, and
tradition has not preserved tho spot

lliirtl Work.
All classes of men complain of "hard
work." Tho carpenter thinks it "loo
bad" that ho Is obliged to work so bard
for a living, whllo his neighbor, tho
physician, can rido in his carriage (o at
tend patients, or leisurely deal out mod
leitics In his office.
Tho physician thinks it ltard work to
bo in readiness to obey calls nt all hours
of tho day and night ; to travel in cold
and heat, through mud nnd stoims, and
not even bu allowed ono hour lu the
twenty-four which ho can positively
call his own lime. Ho envies ids friend
tlio carpenter, who, when tho day's
work is done, can turn to lit si fimlly
and rest In peace.
Tho blacksmith fools that a hard lot
lu iifo has fallen to him, ns ho strikes nt
tlio anvil, through tho long day, whllo
on tho opposllo sldo of tho street, his
neighbor, tho lawyer, seems to bo called
to tho performance of no harder work
than writing at his (able, or reading ol
bis law books.
But tho lawyer, as his glanco falls
upon tho blacksmith, thinks of tho
years spent in ptudy to fit him for the
profession, of other years of strenuous
mental exertion and constant applica
tion to gain a reputation, of tho still in
cessaiit toll necessary to attain it, of his
frequent unavoidable contacts with
most hardened vlllians, of tho rovolting
relations of crime ho is compelled to
hear, of tho hundreds of suffering, In
nocent victims, who plead with him to
succor them from powerful oppressors
but whom ho cannot aid. With a sigh
ho turns away from tho whistling,siug
ing, Jolly-faced, and brawny-armed
blacksmith, and feels it a harder work
to hammer nnd weld tho iron, and blow
tlio bellows of tho law in puch a man
ner ns shall always keep the llres of his
reputation burning beforo tho world.
So it Is in tho various brandies of
trade, and in nil professions. Each is
apt to think his neighbor's business
light work compared to tho duties in
cumbent upon him to perform. But it
is not so. Tho merchant and tho me
chanic, tho clergyman and llio farmor,
havo all work to do, either mentnl or
physical, of equal impoitanco to tho
general body politic, nnd requiring
equal exertions. Tho grumbling about
hard work is of no benefit to us, but
decidedly foolish and wicked.
Wo aro mado to work. God consti
tuted us with bones, sinews, strength,
and In every way, by mental and phy

Dreams'.
Many pcoplo awkwardly and foolish

without tho least knowledge of their

that such pcrcons nro not a llttlo super-

ual activity of mind in union with tho
mdy it Inhabits. When such action is
going on, fully, wo are said to bo awake;
wo near, wo see, wo feel, wo know our
surroundings. Then every ono is con
scious of another stato In which wo do
not hoar, see, feel nnd know of our sur
roundings, whilst thcro Is no nctlon go

action transpiring. This is ti stato of
profountl sleep, also called deep and
sound sleep. In this 6tnto thcro is no
dreaming and no activity anywhere,
except in the process of blood making
and circulation. Tho person is to all
purposes dead to tho external world, In
such a stato of lethargy. Now thostato
which Is called dreaming Is contradis
tinguished from both of the foiegolng,
and may properly bo termed an inter
medlato condition. Drcmis nro clearly
tho result of mental nctlon, but not in
tlio fnmo degreo as when tho person la

partially through its organ, tlio brain,
nud tho impressions aro strong enough
to inlliienco memory, but too weak and
partial tobtarteelf consciousness. Hence
tho person dreams, knows ho has

Trno Moral Perfection.
It Is a truth full of deep meaning that
all through human nature perfection U
Intimately associated with unconscious
ness. In thu physical naturo tho most
complete health Is whero each orgaii
perforins Its part unheeded, whero tho
activities nro harmoniously engaged.
not In analyzing their own nature, but
In accomplishing their own functions.
Directly nny part of the body nsserts
Its own scparuto existence, and demand)
special notice, It Is n proof that some
thing is out of order, nnd Is tho first
symptom of disease. Tho countryman,
who, ou being asked how ho kept his
physical system In such perfect order,
replied, that "for his part ho inul no
system," showed by his answer a per
fection of health, which but fow over
realize. It Is when tho head nclies, or
tho tooth throbs, or tho limb is injured,
that wo become specially conscious of
their exletencoj when they nro in good
working order wo forget them, nnd only
consider flic results they produce.
This truth is not confined to tlio bod
ily functions. Tho strongest mind Is
not tho most conscious of ibj strength.
Tho greatest geniu-e's of llio world have
lived and died unaware of the richness
of their menial treasures. Tlio truo
artist is so absorbed In tho lovo of his
art that ho forgets Ids own powers,
whllo tho mero dabbler Is vainly con
scious nf ids Inferior abilities. Often
Ihoso faculties upon which wo most
prldo ourselves aru tho most supcrllcial-
ly developed, whllo our real powers lio
unfathomcd ami unknown, Ho who
works for fnmo or npplauso is always
measuring liis own skill, nnd estimat
ing his own progress, whllo he whose
heart is centred in tho work itself dwells
not upon his own instrumentality, but
rejoices in tlio furtherance of tho object,
by whatover means. Ono orator, filled
with tho greatness orhl.sthomo,or bent
on effecting somo reform, nnd anxious
to insplroothcrs with a llko enthusiasm,
is unconscious of tlio eloquenco which
holds his nudienco in rapt attention,
nor does hocare to measure it j his object
lies ahead of himself, and ho uses him
self, as it woro, for a btep by which to
reach it ; ho employs his powers, as the
carpenter his tools, merely as Instru
ments to accomplish a higher purpose.
Another, bent on self-display, only
handles hlssubject wlthn vlow to carve
his own fame. Uninspired by great
thoughts, ho is keenly alive to all his
rhetorical excellencies and failures ; ho
weighs his abilities with accurate pre
cision, and mcusures his success by tho
degreo to which bis hearers appreciate
turn, instead of tho conclusions they
lorm ns to his theme. Tho sanio differ
ence divides all tho Intellectual labor of
tho world. Its best performance is
always attended with a certain uncon
sciousness of self, whilo its inferior
work is characterized by a keen analysis
of tho powers employed. Tho ono is
natural, tho other artificial ; tho oue
regards tho end as albabsorbing, tho
other loves rather to dwell ou the
means.
Equally does this truth apply lo our
moral conduct. Viituro requires a cer
tain degree of unconsciousness to main
tain her very existence, .Tho moral
worth of n good action depends greatly
upon its spontaneity. Whero it is tho
natural outflow of tt loving or generous
heart It is priceless, but when wo begin
to praiso ourselves Inwardly, und think
how merltorous wo are, It Immediately
loses Its bloom. Not moio surely Is tho
snow dissolved and illiipaled by the
rays of tho sun, than goodness fades
nnd vanishes before, llio conscious prldo
of lUelf. Somo one. in wrltim? of
humility, has said,
It Is so frnll, so dcllcnlo n'tldng,
If It outlook upon Itself, 'tis gone,
And ho who tnluit s'.lo tstee-ni It his,
I'roves;hy tlnt.vciy thought, ho has It not.
And tho same Is Into to n great extent
of every virtue. Ho who most fully
appreciates ids worth, has generally it
slender slock to estimate. Abovo nil,
tho boaster, who talks glibly of virtue,
n order to extol himself, know,s noth.
ng of Its profound realities. Even self-
depreciation is not akin to virluo In Us
deep significance. It Is nt tho best,
when sincere, an unhealthy sort of
goodiuss, which dwells upon self, nfter
all, lo tho neglect of higher things ; and
when insincere it is tho basest by poerlsy
Tho truly virtuous man Is ho who sinks
self in his object, who labors in tho
causo of right nnd truth, sacrificing his
own Inlcrcsls, without feeling himself
n martyr, without boasting of his deeds,
without too closely analyzing his own
part in tho matter, either to applaud or
to censure. Ho exerts till his powers to
tho utmost, and rejoices in their nbillty
to carry out his noblest conceptions j but
ho values them ns tho mechanic does
his tools, not for their own sake, hut for
what they can produce. He exults.not
n his own benevolence, but in llio hap
piness It sheds; ho eongra'ulatcs him
self, not lu his own senso of Justice.but
that others havo their rights; ho tri
umphs, nut in his ability to convince or
pursuado men, but lu their acceptance
oi llio truth. His is that natural, spoil

Colonel Jackson was ouo directing him
to muster all the companies into servico

explained this order, and they unani

war. On reporting tills to Colonel
Jackson a half hour later, he was much
gratified, and had tho company muster
