A Duel With Mies.
(From the Nashville Press, April `.1.3
t •
k From Overton county,_ comes to us a
istrange story, which we supPase has few
. parallels in the annals of difficulties settled
f after the wide. The affair which we are
''about to relate hippened, two, weeks ago,
and the details were rehearsed to us on Sat
urday by an old,
miner, who has been pros
pecting ih East, Tennessee for a company of
the North; and who, on , his way to thideity,
I passed through Fentress and Overton coun
t ties, to reach. Gainsboro, on the Cumber
iland. , -
-• Among the bold, savage mountains of
i Fentress, and the lower or southern portion
s
iof Overton counties, dwell a race of hardy
i melt,-.tar burners and wood ehoppers,:who
I separated, as it were, widely from the one
;er world.brthe atomic* • , ei .rallibads and
Itelegraphs;• , develop among themselves
strait „ =terns ,and stranger ways, of
ithi
- irlere the bold spurs of a wild range -de
l. fleet* a Arnie - as they cross the boundary,
/ line of Feeittess and Overton, lived for
t many years two families named Waldron
and Jarvis. An unintelligible feud had
marred their. interceurs,e-fer time ,out of
i mind, until 'about sr year ago, when the
Ihead of the -last mentioned lamily, died.
! After this occurrence old troubles were ap
parently burled on bothaldeasouid a friend
ly intercourseNvas'establishad between the
late rivals. ,This ,continue 4 for many
months, and until Saturdayidght; when
one of the Jarvises, a young man of twen
ty-two, and_ while intoxicated, made
,some
iineeking . remark reheat
.bne; mf the Ned
diens, impeaching his courage. The mem
ber ,_r•of the ;once -rival family referred to
ed
he of - the - other's remarks, with many
additions and aggravations and his , ire was
of edireisgieat. Two days'after he .sent a
friend to young, Jarvis, who was at, work
i on albericli near by,* tnetay' tb him that as,
' hetasivis)did not conelder him a coarage
ous man, he might have tlie pleasure of
testing his bravery with any weapon he
might choose.. Young Jarvis was too proud
to retract the language which had been ut
tered under the influence of liquor, and he
accordingly sent back word to the other
that he would meet him four days from that
time in what is known as the Run, where
they mild settle the matter with rifles at
one hundred and fifty, yards.
Both men had been in the rebel army,
- and were accounted splendid marksmen,
and m their hunting excursions through
the neighboring wilds few could equal their
sure aim, or bring down the game at longer
range. . - ' .
It was on a damp, cold, dreary Friday
mondiw that the two young men, each ac.,
coinpamed by a friend, took their way to
the Rim, a straight, narrow valley, en one
side of whichran a rapid strewn; overhung
with wild ? black crags, with here and there
stubborn bushes shooting out, while above
aciark, gloomy forest surged and moaned
in the fitful gusts which now and then
swept over the scene. A few rods from the
banks of the torrent.was a. straight, unob
structed piece of ground for. five hundred
sect. Here the two men were to meet. A
drizzling rain had fallen for; hours, and the
scene through the valley and out over the
surrounding hills, with their wooded sides,
was disnial with clinging mist and patter
ing rain. , r -
The seconds paced '
off the distance, the
two men were placed with their backs to
: • • .
ware each other, the pieces were loaded, and
,
‘• to the shouted one, two t three, given by one
of the seconds standing upon a high rock
to one side and about midway between the
two combatants, they turned and tired.
Jarvis was wonnde through the fleshy
part of the left arm,whilebis bullet whistled
savagely just above:his antagonist's head.
"Are ,you satisfied," said the wounded
man's second to the other's friend. "Wal
dron wants another shot," was.the reply.
A stern savage' smile lighted up the
features ofi young Jarvis as his arm was
bound up to staunch the blood; but he said
not a word. The rifles were loaded again,
and once more to the shouted signal the two
men.wheeled and fired. The reports were
almost simultaneous. Waldroaran forward
a few steps, staggered, reeled, and fell into
the arms of his friend, bleeding and sense
less._ He was shot through the heart.
Jarvis went slowly home, saddled his
hotse, and telling his family that he was
going to Monticello, left the country.

The Emperor of Brazil in Um Paraguayan
An American gentleman who arrived
from Brazil last week has given us some
items of information, which have riot ap
peared in any public correspondence.
From this gentleman we gain some facts
concerning the action of the Emperor of
Brazil in the war, which confirnuthe high
estimate placed upon, that monarch• by all
travellers in the empire. That he is - a man
of high intellectual endowments, fine
moral-character and. ()iv:lda - Wawa; was
!generally conceded, bpt that.. he. would
prove himself a great and firm statesman
in the.difilcult and trying 'times of war,
many doubted. But the events of the last
few months have proved claim to be this.
The question vital to Brazil was the com
plete liberation from every obstacle to the
navigation of the waters that flow from
her interior provinces past Paraguay to the
ocean. This was solemnly guarantied by
the father of the present 'Supreme" of
Paraguay; and years of peaceful navigation
of those rivers confirmed the sacred obli
gation. The vital question with Lopez was
to retain his Otell-traltibd - atitiranis in ig
norance. superstition, and in political and
commercial bOndaiteil MIX - monthly, and
oftentimes weekly, sight of . Brazilian
steamers , and •other 'vessels did not con

the hearts of his -peo r = I -Hence the con
flict; hence his :d purpose.
Six months ago Brazil began, through
certain Journals of, the opposition, to'show
unmistakable signs of weariness of the
war. Thelinapire had to furnisktbe lion's
share of funds and troops: the allies bad
been before the imprViable Humitita not
quite as long as France- and England be
, 'Tore Sebastopol, andliad , made - . nolmpres
• Ilion. The public funds went down; gold
went up; business 'stagnated. There was
the same , ftling which pervadekthEnlierth

grew p dee loud.
He was pr and essed,*4(leY of, every consid

Anecdotes of Ben Wade.
(From the Chillicothe Gazette.l
The following we derive froni a promi
nent citizen of Jelfertion, a fellow church
member with Joshua R. Giddings, and they
are authentic :
About the time Mr. Wade opened a law
office - in Jefferson,a traveling , preacher
stopped at that village and delivereFla
ture on the sinfulness of. slavery- -Mr:
Giddings and the pastor of the church; a
which he was a ineniber;deented,
wicked and incendiaryAndto cOunteract,
any evil which the abolition leetnrci_iniglit
have clone, these two men diew_up a plan
for a society which was to, hold stated meet-
Ings for the purpose of Pro Vin A r g the diVinity
of slavery from the Bible. In canvassing
for members to search, the Scriptures for
this purpose, they called, at Wad - e'li-office
whO,' after hearing them patiently; remark
ed : "If I was an infidel, and thought it
desirable to make the: people believe. the.
Bible a fable, 1-.. would begin not by openly
discrediting it., but I would organize just
such societies as you propose, and set out
to prove that the God of...the Bible was a
being that .sanctioned fjlavery and all its
iniquities." --
The pastor spent a few 'moments in deep
thought, and exclaimed: “..You are right,
Mr. Wade; I now see this thing in a differ
ent light; I will have nothing' further to do
with it. Not long after this the scales
fell from Mr. Giddings' eyes, and he, too,
became an apostle of liberty.
While :Wade and Giddings were law
partners r they sold a horse to a preacher
and took•his note. Mr. G. madelhe trade;
and drove a hard bargain, although le be:
longed to the same church with the preach
er. They shortly after dissolved partner
ship and divided the notes,; Mr: G. assort
ing them out, and somehow the poor and
doubtful were counted into Mr., W's. half.
•Mr. W. made no objection to this, doubt.'
less. thinking this. would afford a good op.-
portimity to exercise some of that large
hearted practical benevolence for which he
is so noted. • The preacher's note fell to
- Mr. Wade, and when it 'Came due he - was
v informed by Mr. G. that Mr. W. had bought
••the note. On calling toliky , it, Mr. Wade
asked him how inttoli money he had, and
was informed "just eneugh to pay this note
dg.
an et back home on. _Mr. Wade re
plied 4Well r in the Mat place , had I been
selling the horse, my conscience would not
have allowed me to exact of you more than
lie was worth,and intlie second place, you
preachere have a bard time of it, and I - am
the leaf: man that wonid have a desire for
. your money. Here is your note, I make
you a present of it." The minister was ef
fected to tears, and remarked to a brother
member shortly after, while relating the
occurrence, "that man's rough exterior
covers a noble heart."
AIITOGRAPIII3.-A sale of autographs took
place in London last month. Among the
remarkable lots were the following, with
the prices at whieh they sold: Letter of
