    I:The Late Duel in Virginia,
AtICICKokro, Va., June it—A duel was
knelt on Saturday afternoon, between'

'CP. p Cameron editor of the Petersburg (Va.)
• .
amuse (+COnservative), and Robert W. Hughes,
a contributor to the Richmond - State Journal
IRePublican), in consequence of an article de
nouncing Hughes. The fight took place in
North Carolina,sixteen miles from the Noifolk
and Petersburg Railroad, and the weapons
- used were pistols. Cameron was struck in the
breast at the first fire; the ball striking a rib
and glancing. Hughes demanded another
fire, but the surgeons pronounced Cameron
unable to deliver another shot. Hughes then
declared that he was satisfied, and the affair
ended. Cameron's injuries are severe, but not
considered dangerous.
, • A FURTHER ACCOUNT:
RICEMOND, June 13.—The Haghes-Cameron
duel has at length been brought to a close.
Soon after the arrest and bail of the parties
and seconds by the Chesterfield Justice, on
Friday last, they all repaired to Petersburg,
and there awaited an opportunity to departfor
some - untried field in North Carolina. On
Saturday morning at 4 o'clock they left the
city on a special train provided for the occa
sion by the Norfolk and Petersburg Railroad,
for Deep Creek crossing, on the Dismal Swamp
.Canal, about six miles from Norfolk. There
carriages were already in waiting, and
.the parties set out for apoint
on the canal beyond the limits
of Virginia, where their engagement would
not reQuire a forfeiture of their bonds. About
five o'clock P. M., having traversed some 15
miles since leaving the cars, the party found
themselves within the bounds of the North
State, and preparations were at. once made for
the combat.. The ground was . ' immediately
selected and a toss of. the choice of positions
resulted in favor of Cameron. Dueling pistols
hadbeen substituted for the short swords pre
viously named by the challeneged party, as
there was no provision in the Virginia code
authorizing such Weapons. A few minutes after
.5 P. M. the principals, Robert W. Hughes and
William E. Cameron, took their places on the
field,-ten paces apart. The_ famous pistols
used by 0. Jennings Wise, when the latter
was permanently disabledin a duel,were again
brought into . requisition. Mr. Ernest Legarde,
one of Cameron's seconds took position and
called in a clear voice, "(gentlemen, are 'you
readY?" receiving an affirmative from both
the gentlemen. The pistols were then leveled
at each other, and as the word "fire"
was called Cameron discharged his
weapon. "One" and "two" had nearly
escaped : :the lips of Legarde when
Hughes's pistol sent its discharge. There was
not an instaiii between both discharges, the re
ports following each other in such rapid suc
cession that it was hard to distinguish them.
Cameron received Hughes's bullet over the
lower lobe of the left lung, snaking a flesh
wound,which,according to the statement of an
attending physician, disabled him. In response
to Hughes s inquiry as to whether he was ready
for a second lire, Cameron's second said not,
ILIA Hughes having received satisfaction,
the meeting was therefore adjourned.
Both the gentlemen behaved gallantly
on the occasion, Cameron, when he
was wounded, exclaiming: "I am shot, but
am ready to give satisfaction." This was
found, however, to be beyond his powers of
endurance. Hughes is represented to have
been exceedingly cool throughout the proceed
ings, and declared himself satisfied wheal he
learned that Cameron was not in a condition
to return a second fire. Cameron's wound,
though severe, did not prevent him walking
from the cars to his home upon his arrival in
Petersburg. Hughes and party arrived in this
city this morning at a quarter past eleven. The
termination of the qffair seems to be agreeable
to all parties.
The Prince of Wales.
A London letter to the Chicago Journa
txi~ti:
The Prince of Wales is back among his Old
Vaunts; and of course went in state to the
Derby. I mentioned some time ago that it
was rumored that Parliament would be asked
to increase his annual income. The habits
of the Prince are so well known to the public
that they would have risen in a body against
suck a proposition, and after due considera
tion the Queen has been advised thatit would
be useless to submit the proposition to the
House of Commons, where it would be
impossible to prevent some of the
radical members from exposing the whole re
cent career of the Prince. The result is that
the Queen is to increase his income from her
private purse. This, of course, is only a round
about way of accomplishing the matter, and
the amount she thus furnishes will yet come
out of the pockets of the people in some way
unknown to them at the moment. The figures
are rather startling. The present annual in
come of the Prince,from his Parliamentary al
lowance and the revenues of the Duchy of
Cornwall, amounts to no less than £120,000
sterling, or $600,000' in gold, and yet he is at
this moment not only bankrupt, but heels over
head in debt.- The Queen will lulu, it is said,
some £30,000 or £40,000 more, bringing his in
come up to at least three quarters of a million
of dollars. (And this is only one Prince out
of the lot—and you think you do wonders
when you give your President 525,000 per an
num! Are you not ashamed of yourselves)?
The public explanation given is that the
expenses of the Prince are greatly increased
by reason of his holding . the levees, etc., on
behalf of his mother. lint this is the purest
nonsense. Ido not suppose that his expenses
are increased from thaveauSe a single farthing;
at all events, a couple of hundred pounds
would cover them. The whole affair is a mis
take and it would be wisdom on the part of
the Queen to withhold her hand. The sooner
this reckless young man learns that he cannot
dip his hand at pleasure into the public purse
the better.
UITY BULLETIN.
BEDFORD STREET..—We eheerfUlly give place
to the following communication from a re
.spected clergyinan, of whose good work in the
Bedford Street District, we can speak with
much conunendation and confidence. Our re
cent articles on Bedford Street were not de
signed to convey the hnpression to which he
refers:
"To the Editor of the Eeeninq Bulletin: :
As in your several articles, lately, on Bedford
street, you leave the impression that there is
but one organization engaged in the work of
helping the wretched people of that district
'back to a condition of comfort, respectability
and virtue,' I write:to say that the Church of
the CruCifixion, Eighth street, nearly opposite
Medford, has, for more than twenty-two years,
labored for that very end, and that in addition
to the ordinary agencies of the Church, and
the daily visits of a Bible Woman to their
wretched homes, it has established a
Horne at No. 708 Lombard street, where
any women who are desirous of re
turning to the paths of virtue are received
and furnished temporary lodgings until such
time as situations can be prooured for them.
2ince - opening; - on -- the — lirst — of - September
last, it has been the means of reclaiming
several Of the class described in ' our re nort
a o w om,wit one exception, are oing
well, and striving to regain their lost positibn.
Only last week a woman who wain taken out
of a cellar in Bedford street visited the Home,
and showed her gratitude for the interest
manifested in her while an inmate by making
a donation,
with the promise that she would
do more in the fall.
"To extend its usefulness and keep open its
doors for all corners money is much needed,
w•luce can be sent to my residence, No. 919
Pine street, or to W. B. Whitney, Esq., No.
122 South Second street.

Boyle, in his "Sketches of Scenery and Society
in Mauritius," in the Par-oil' Indian q,cean, gives
the following description-of the.population of
Port Louis, the principal town of the Island:
"You have natives from every part of the vast
continent of India, differing not less hi feature
than in form. Weedy and athletic men, im
perial looking, by far the rarest of the two, and
iniserable;insignificant women. They are of
all hues and shades. 'ln the course of half an
hour's walk you stumble on Parsecs, Arabs,
Cingalese, Chinamen, Lasears, Malays, Mozam
biques and Malgachees (natives of Madagas
car). Add to these the negro - Xi - 6 inUllitto, the
French Creole, nor do I throw 'in all the other
Europeans. Picture to yourself the 'confusion
of-tongues and diversity of costume of all this
sthall Babel. Nothing can be more diverting
to the eye, at leaSt to mine, than a drive or a
stroll' through the most frequented thorough
fares of Port Louis:" ,

TEEnotAL=ALc.uouot..—ln the well-known
Targum of Onkelos, He cohol, it is well known,
means "the whole." - ThiS; ni :Arabic, is of
course, alchohol. It is plain, then, that this is
the exact equivalent of tee-tOtal: for tee, it is
notorious, was originally' the mere stuttering
form of the, which originited;it is reported,
with a teetotaller of Preston who stuttered.
There is an absurd legend current that alchohot
came from a word signifying - "to paint;" but
the best English for alchohol is teetotal. Now,
this alcohol is a.word which no teetotaller ever
hears or sees without going into what he most
abhors, a ferment.
SOME idea - may be formed of the state of
education in a village in Hamiishire, England,
when it is stated that out of thirteen jurymen
summoned at an inquest last month, only four
could write their names.
—lt is rumored that the authoress of the
"Changed Brides" is about to issue another
volume, to be styled "The Swapped Bride

COMPORT NECESSARY TO HAPPINESS.—TO
ho entirely happy one must be comfortable, and to be
comfortable it is necessary to have an easy-fitting pair
of Boots. What renders a man more uncomfortable, z. e.
more unhappy, than clumsy, ill-fitting brogans, that tor
ture the wearer? This being the case it is necessary to
employ an expert cordwainer,one who thoroughly under
stands his business. William H. Itelweg is the man for
this emergency. ills place is as almost everybody
knows, at 535 Arch street, next 'door to the corner of
Sixth street. If he fails to please you, set yourself down
as an incorrigible biped who had better emigrate to the
