Tho beautiful little town of Van Buren,
on the Arkansas river, near the Cherokee
Line, during its early history, was famous
-Orr thci number and ferocity of its desper
adoes, being the principal meridian and
focus of rendezvous for gamblers, Indian
traders, and all' sorts of adVentures who
had found it necessary to Change , their

- At this period Thomas A. Meyers emi
grated to Arkansas, and opened 'a large
grocery store in Van Buren, acting him

occupation at that time required n man of
‘thormost determined eourage, as, the store

aduSirahly. • The half-breeds, loafera,,aad

giants, provided both are alike the heirs I
of true eontage, now stand mum the same
dead level. It was believed also that
: Moyers possessed the resolute will to han
dle those awful engines of destruction,
where life and death hang on the touch
of a trigger. His countenance betokened
The perfection of bravery. His fine f tee
,generally wore a stern expression, and,
,when that inched to a snide, the smile
teemed sterner still. His eyes were ex
.ceediagly bleak, wild, penetrating, and
restless, and had that cold gleaming, me
talic took-, which may be regarded us the
-surest sign of thorough desperation. Be

which an unusal calm reigned in thp
At length a terrible affray occurred in
Meyers's grocery. Half :a dozen fire
fir,rna exploded in quick succession, and
thedealning roar so frightened the keeper
that he fairly took to , his hoels and fled
froth his own establishment: The fact
settled public opinion as to his. character.
"What a chicken-hearted toward, to
run from his castle'!"' i.ielaimed Gener
al Cele, the Napolean of frontier duellists
'tt'nd gamblers. '
"Why, he hasn't the spunk of a dead
Phssum !" lisped Bill Green, the dandy
loafer, combing his perfumed"soap locks"
with his long rosy nails.
"Let's drink his liquor and smoke his
cigars, and not pay him for them, because
as 'how he's a coward,". said kick War
hawk, a huge half-breed; and having
enunciated this enthymeme of genuine
Cherokee logic, Jack leapedover the coun
ter and began to fill glasses and hand out
cigars cry 1 ng—' TotrSt to the I,tritv'e;:inY
boys! 'Well never want while the world
•has chickens of the white, feather." ." .
• The firing in tbe,grbevy having ceased
for more than an hour, being replaced by
a din of the most boisterous mirth, Meyers
by, a great effort, mustered the spirit to rd r ,
turn. He found the customers helping
,themselves with a vengeance, and thought
to overaivethera by the assumption onto
roie airs. Ho snatched his revolver from
is pocket,' and ,pointing it at. W.nrhawk's
breast, , ordered 'him to leave -his house.
"If that's whet... , y.ou're arter," shouted
Jack. ensheathing his Big Bowie, _ and
springing back over the counter. "Here's
What will give you aladle-full."
Meyers still kept his revolver presented;
—but his hand shook like a leaf in the
tempest, hiS very lips grew white with ter
ror and his trembling feet involuntarily re
trgated backwards. by shortqUiverina r' steps.

'His'vvill' was. brave; but his nerves refused
their 'eenearreace,, and, he ierriained, so to
speak, i in equipoise—totally incapable-of
acting at all. He was irripdtent to 'fight,
and.,as powerless to fly. • •

grentknifc with, his right hand, he seized

Incredible as it may seem, Meyers, still

would spit in his face to make him treat ;'
land General Cole, when intoxicated, wont('
!strike him with his cane to cure him of
his cowardice, as he said. The poor gm
-1 cery-keeper brooked all these gross indig;
nities with the patience or a martyr, and
would sometimes meekly remonstrate—
" Gentlemen, it is ungenerous to ; abuse
Ime thus, - for I etin'fes§ that I htetie no coat- 1

This continued fora whole year, when 1
a change occurred that caused the, insult- •
ers of Itleyrttl to_ run their ignoble`pBi4e
cutions. HO' had a young and beautifel

was, absent, the ,hideous half-bread Jack
Warhawk, instigated to the damning'deed
by'the persuasion of General Cole, went
to the grocery-keeper's private residence,
and:maltreated his lady in the most shame
ful manner.
Meyers returned home to find his be
loved one drowned, as it were, in tears.—
He heard the-harrowing tale without any
external manik-stations. or extraorditiary
emotion. His thee it is true, Lecrune some
what pale ; his lip quivered an instant, and
then settled to an expression rigid as a
mouth of iron ; and hiS wild black eye, it
may be, shot a few more beams of pene
trating fire; but he did not rave or mutter
curses. He uttered a whisper of menace:
he did not even condole or sympathise with
his afflicted wire. Ile.only armed him
self with that Bowie knife 4burteen inches
in the blade from hilt to point, and started
for the village.
lie came within sight of his enemy,
then promenading the public squire. and
boasting of his villainous achieveue
At ibis vision Meyers's. lip curled into a
horrid smile and his dark eye melted in a
stream of tears. He approached till he
stood nearly touching the half-breed, and
then said, in a shrill, hissing whisper—
Wretch, be quick Draw, for on this
spot one of us must die l"
And he waited till. the other should be
I ready for'the stri een equal terms. He
'did not have to wait long, for Jack, under
standir, that' cold, glittering, snaky, smite
and those hot, gushing tears, as the cer
tain tokens of murderous madness, imme
diately unsheathed at the same moment
I with his advasory, and they began the
dreadful combat,, which, indetd, was soon
decided. Meyers parried three furious
blows of the half-breed, and then, grasp
ing his foe's clothing with his left hand,
with his tight plunged his knii up to the
hilt in his heart. The Cherokee expired
wiliout a groan.
And now the•inward and terrible pas
sions of Meyers found vent in appalling
explosions. His curses were learntl to
hear; he sFurned hiS' fallen enemy with
his foot. and %% billed aloud that be had a
hundred lives, so that ho might himself
enjoy the pleasure of ki Lig him a hundrd
times over. His wrath then changed to
his other insulters. He flew at the l( e'er,
Bill Green, and tore out his "soap locks"
by handfalls. • He sprung upon•• General
Cole; and pulled his nose till it ‘l,.as flat
tened between his fingers—all the wink
that gory knife dripping 'with blood in his
red right hand! His enemies were soto:-
len by surprise, terror-stricken, stupified,
that for a space they 'seemed utterly inca
pable of voluntary motions.
'The coward had . Suddenly become bra

feelings was destroyed forever; the sheer

cal fear Does an one doubt our strange
story f Let him address a letter of inqui
ry to the Hon. G. W. Puschel, of Vat
Buren, late a judge of the Supreme Court
of Arkansas, and the fullest confirmation
can be obtained.
But the tragedy did not end with the
death of the - half-breed; a greater victim
was required to complete the expiation.
On the same evening Gen. Cole called
a special council of his friends to consult
on the coure he should pursue. Th'ete
was but one opinion—that, as he had been
insulted by a direct end gross public in
dignity, he must call his foo•to the field of
honor, accordingly, on the following morn
a challenge was dispatched, which Myers
promptly accepted, and fixed the time at
noon of the same day—the weapons to be
double-barreled shot guns—distance ten
paces !
•
The parties met on the sand beach un
der thehunk of the.Tiver aboVe the vil
lage, and hundreds collected to witness
the issue. The mortal beligerents were
placed in position by their seconds; and
the death-dealing guns—enormous double
barrels— rested with dark yawning muz
zles on the,sand, in their hands. The
spectators were much astonished at the
strong contrast exhibited by their appear.;

duelist, who had shot his man before
,he
was eighteen, and has often since beer;
engaged in alibi's of the kind. On the
contrary, Meyers was little acquainted
with the use afire-arms, uud had always
hitherto been an uninhigated poltroon.--
And yet SingUnr' to record, the duelist:
stood up, nervous, agitated, almost tremb

firm, steady as a rock, with that apaliing
smile still curling on his lip, and a few
scattered tear drops, .g,learning in the sun,

candidly to the pewit) about Whatever it
concerns them to know.

double royal sheet, in a new, large, clear,
readable type.
Betidcs the Deily paper, there will be
