A DUELLING EEPaINISOENOE
A weff known and most estimable lady, whose
name was, Rome years ago, connected by gossip with
a duel between , a brace of fashionable gentlemen,
has recently dieff in this city. The facts of the case
Were not very plainly understood at the time; per
haps there was nothing about them worthy of being
'understood ;' at all events, the two gentlemen, one
of whom is now a wealthy banker and a prominent
pOlitician, went out with pistols, and one of them
came bask in a carriage. It seems that there was
some ill feeling between these valorous individuals,
Which culminated at length in a . challenge ; some said
Oa accountsof this lady. A—, the party of the
first part, and B—, the banker, accordingly took
practice in the shooting galleries, and perfected
themselves to the best of their abilities in the ~ma.
nipuiation of firearms. A little while ago a tree was
out down upon the Bloomingdale road, which
contained a score or more of bullets, tired at it
by, one or beth tf the determined duellists whilst
preparing for the interesting occasion. 'Previous to
the meeting, A— expressed his determination to
leave B— in an unpleasant predicament, while
in all probability, was 'equally menacing.
When the day arrived, both ,parties betook them-
Selves to the Elysian Fields. at Hoboken, Which, by
the way, is the favorite duelling ground of city
swells, and then and there proceeded to load and
prime: The result was that A— aimed at his an
tagonist,s heart, and wounded him in the hip, while
fired somewhere in the direction of the sun,
damaging nothing material, as far as heard from.
To-day the banker riles in his carriage, lamed for
life. The lady married neither one of the gentle
men. Aa all parties moved in the best circles of
society, a great ['mention was created by the affair,
Which, indeed, has not yet been forgotteni:7 those
eogniiant of 'the facts, or familiar with the actors in
the drama, which had almost become a tragedy.
A SOUTHERN SISTER
A sister of one of our "Southern brethren," who
now occupies the opulent position of colonel of Con
federate troops, has been indulging in the favorite
pastime of shoplifting at Stewart% and, in conse
quence, has fallen into the hands of the brutal
Yankees. The lady rejoices in the name of °oder
denk sometimes, of Clernand at others. Previourdy
-arrested by the Government for complicity with
the rebels, she was ordered to Fort Lafayette ;
but somehow, and probably, for some reason, she
was let loose upon the city, secure of the sympathy
•Of all good Democrats of the Copperhead persua
sion. Since then, she has foraged very extensively
along Broadway, cutting off straggling pieces of silk,
and capturing laces, gloves, and such small but
Gently articles as might be met with during her
incessant raids. On Sunday last she made her
appearance at Stewart's, and in the course of an in
teresting debate upon high prices, Sc., conveyed
divers and sundry laces into her capacious pockets.
salesman, who observed the occurrence, caused
her arrest. Upon searching her reside - nee, a quantity
Of " indiscriminate loot" was found, which' had pro•
bably been pilfered at. various times by this sunny:
hearted daughter of the South. The event will un
doubtedly cause numerous protests from the organs
Of Tammany and Mozart Ilall, on behalf of an out
raged Constitution, and against , arbitrary arrests.
This is not the first instance of a Southern belle en
gaging in the delightful but immoral pastfine of
Shoplifting 'among the Yankee storekeepers. Perti
nent to the same idea is the fact that the Copperheads
are grumbling over the incarceration of the noto.
Mous " Andrews," the Virginian who led the mob of
July. The Government has offered the district at
torney an opportunity for trying him for crimes
against the State, previous to its own proceedings
against him for treason, and the necessary evidence
against him is now being procured. Upon this state
ment of facts, the Copperheads are grumbling lest
the miserable instrument of their own evil passions
shall be twice put in jeopardy of his life.
Our harbor is at last clear of the Russian fleet
proper, and Ii Re Galantuomo, the' Italian man-of-

Government in one of our amp lies at dock

of that Great Unappreciated, the "Stevens Bat.
tery." This latter lies at the yard, like the bony
fragments of sonic gigantic monster ; some lethyo-
Ileums whore bones have been blackened by smoke.
Just so it has stood almost since the memory of the
present generation, and there it probably will
stand as a monument of somebody's stupidity, and
somebody else's recklessness, until the rust has
honeycombed its vast ribs, or dome opulent junk
dealer sees fit to make a fair offer for it. Half-a.-
dozen times we have heard of the resumption of
Work upon it, but there the matter has ended.
Fernando Wood addressed a Secession meeting at
Bergen (N. J.), last evening, and, as the State has
no identity of its own, its news properly comes un
der the head of New York local items. A table was
spread, wines provided, and during the evening seve
ral toasts were drunk in a very drunken ;Miner,
which were all criminatory of Abolitionism, the war,
and common decency. Wood's address was of the
usual stripe, and, consequently, not worthy of much
attention.

has been received at Headquarters
CIIATTANOOGA, Nov. 25 , 7.15 P. M.
To Maj.- Gen, - Hallea, General-in-Chief :
Although the battle lasted from early dawn
until dark this evening, I believe I am not
premature in announcing a complete vic
tory over Bragg. Lookout Mountain-top,
all the rifle-pits In-. Chattanooga Valley, and
Missionary Ridge entire, have fallen into'our
hands. U. S. GRANT,
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2G.—The reports
from Chattanooga received at the War De
partment represent that three thousand pit
soners were captured from the rebels yester
day, with fifty-two cannon, five thousind
stand of 'small arms, and ten flags.
The rebel forces are utterly routed to-day,
and in full retreat towards Dalton, Georgia,
and firing the bridges after them to retard
pursuit, and burning their depots and stores,
and abandoning or destroying everything
that would embarrass their flight. , Our
forces were i:oursuing them this morning.
CHATTAisTOOG . A, Nov. 26.—General Bragg's
retreat from his position ofj.ast night is
represented as a perfect rout.
General Sheridan reached Chickamauga
station at 4 o'clock this morning ; he cap
tured five hundred, prisoners, four guns,
and a number of pontoons.
The enemy attempted to burn the bridge
behind him, and partially. succeeded. The
enemy also burned' the . &pat and stores at
Chickamauga.
General Sherman crossed the Chicka
mauga. this morning. General Hooker was
reported at Ringgold at 5 o'clock this
evening.
The desertions and captures from the
rebel army are rapidly thinning it
The number of cannon captured thus far
is reported at fifty-two, including the cele
brated Loomis battery which was lost by
us at Chickamauga. General Sherman's
loss is much -less than was estimated, and
willprobably not exceed five, hundred.
Nearly, six thousand prisoners have been
repOrted as captured.
The son of General Breckhuidge, and Ma
jor Wilson, his chief of staff, were brought
in among the prisoners. - General Breckin
ridge himself narrowly escaped.
A strong column is in pursuit of the'ene
my, and it is not impossible that another
'disastrous defeat will be forced on him.
houtsviLLE, Nov. 26.—The following despatch
dated Chattanooga, November 25th, received by the
"General Breckinridge's son has just
been brought In a prisoner,l)
Among the killed are Captain Barney,Lieutenant
Wise, and Colonel Putnam; severely wounded,
Captain Daniel O'Connor, Captain Brown ; wound
ed, Lieutenant Colonel Gilmore, Captain Davis, Ad
jutant Tucker, Lieutenant Colonel Reath, Major
Johnston, and Adjutant Bond.
Our camp fires last night were blazing along the
crest of the whole ridge, a distance of eight miles.
Bragg was expected to withdraw under cover of the
night. At dark Bragg was in line of battle. Our
army was aglow with enthusiasm, and eager to
pursue. Prisoners report that the.rebel army is.
terribly demoralized, and incapable of offering any
serious resistance ; also, that Bragg will fall back to
Atlanta. General Brannon occupies Tunnel Hill,
which completes our line along the whole length of

[Correspondence of the Chronicle. 3
Annuity, Culpeper county, ye., Nov, 21.
In your paper of the 20th an article headed with
Day name, over the signature of " Bohemian," ap
peared, in which the writer represents himself as
having visited my house, and that I told him of a
variety of things that I had said to Gen. Stuart, a
portion of which would have been offensive to Gen.
Stuart and to thatportion of the army under his com
mand. will you, in justice to myself, allow me to
say that, if I am not misinformed as to the author of
this communication, he has never visited, my house
that I am aware , of, and that I have never held any
such conversation with him or any other person,
and that I could not have done so without a very
gross departure from truth, inaemueli as I never ex
changed a word with General Stuart in my life on
any subject.
Moreover, if all the writer says were true, nothing
could have justified his furnishing it for publication
without may authority, inasmuch as every rule that
regulates intercourse between gentlemen would for
bid any visitor from • publishing the private conver
sation that might ensue without permission.
I have already been made a victim to great outrage
from misrepresentations (perhaps unintentional) of
what I have said, with no expectation, however, of
having any portion of my conversation communica
ted for the public press. Does " Bohemian" desire
to draw upon me the vengeance of the Southern
army if it should return to this vicinity? I suppose
not; but then, why such unauttiorized statements?
what I have to say respecting General Stuart or
thoee under his command I have already furnished
for publication, both North and South, over my own
signature, which, I hope, they will have an oppor
tunity of reading.
I may as well remark here that it is a very short
time since a publication appeared in a Northern pa
per (which was copied by the Richmond papers)
giving the substance of a conversation which I am
represented to have reported as having occurred be ,
tweet) Mr. Judah P. Benjamin and myself, when in
truth I had never exchanged salutations with Mr.
Benjamin, and, therefore, could have had no such
conversation with him. The illustration furnished
I had given to more than officer of the Govern
ment, both civil and military, but never to Mr. Ben
jamin. It.must be perceived, therefore, when these
representations meet the public eye, if Mr. Benjamin
or Gen. Stuart should choose to -say, what I have
said here, that no conversation of any kind had
passed between us, which for aught I know they
may have clone already, the responsibility of the
misrepresentation would be thrown upon me when
I might have no means at my command for setting
myself right.

paid them by the managers, In the way of. Liter.
speraing knowledge among them. A lady hag been
employed for said purpose, who visits the reading
room nightly, and reads to them interesting and in
structive books, at the same time explaining such
sentences as are difficult for their young minds to
understand. This movement is au excellent one,
and has already produced a great effect by keeping
them off the streets, where they would moat likely
get into bad company, and unfit themselves for any
high position in after-life. The managers of the
institute, appreciating the attention and good be
havior of the young lads, invited them to the
place last evening, where a handsoine collation was
spread'out for their especial benefit, and which the
youngsters indulged in to their heart's content. If
other institutions would adopt the same plan, great
benefit would be derived from it by the community.
