SANDBAR FERRY. A Sketch of the Historic Duelling Ground. Augusta Herald. When Augusta was not as old as she is now and gentlemen considered that the only proper course to take in settling a difficulty was to order coffee and pistols for two, to say nothing of a surgeon and seconds, the Sandbar dueling grounds saw its palmy days. Then it was that the law and offi /cers of the law winked at sneh a thing as an exchange of pistol shots on the river hank and if two parties desired to perforate themselves with hallets, why, it was nobody's business but the parties who wanted to settle the matter a ia code. Then it was that a (delegation would go down te the ferry and empty their revolvers at each other and then-come borne to breakfast;-if they were able to. Sandbar . Ferry, noted duelling grounds, a subject well worth a few moments description by the pen of any writer, be he reporter, author, or edi tor. It was in the antebellum days and ?turing the war of the seoession and during the day of the reconstruction period that duelli ng reigned supreme. Many were those who went to the noted duelling grounds and exchanged a few shots. It was nothing out of the ordinary then and the .old inhabi tants can tell of noted duels that took place on this historic ground of the affairs of honor. Many name from sister States to fight it cut near Sandbar ferry and South Carolina furnished her quota of them. Of course the names of all the duels that were fought on the river side can not now he ascertained. There were so many that.no one can be found who can tell cf all of ;hem, but the writer has talked . with one who was present at a noted duel that occurred at Sand bar Ferry and the one talked with told the writer in a most interesting way of an affair of honor that he witness ed on a certain afternoon in the year of 1862 or thereabouts, so fer as he can rememder. Cornelius Redd, a man well-known in the war period of Augusta and said to be a desperate fellow, had engaged in a dispute with a party by the name of Copeland, of Washington, D. C. The trouble was about a gaming debt and the two decided to fight it out a la duello. They ?elected seconds and a surgeon and witli about fifty or so of interest ed spectators repaired to the Sandbar Ferry duelling grounds at about four o'clock one afternoon. The weapons for the-settlement of the difficult^ were navy repeaters. A prominent - Augustan acted as Redd's second, and Mayor Hope, of Richmond, Va,, did likewise for Redd, They lined up ?nd opened fire. Four shots were exchanged and Copeland fell at the last shot. He lived only a very britif period after the shooting. Redd was not touched by the bulli ts. Redd was a fsw years afterwards shot by a police officer with whom he engaged in a difficulty when resisting arrest. He was a small man but very.game, it is said. The duel had been one of the most systematic ever arranged to take place on the Sandbar ferry duelling ground. During the reconstruction period, the greatest antagonism was felt be tween the Radicals and Democrats, the,two big political parties then.ex tant. Two Carolina newspaper editors had been fighting each other pretty hotly with their pens, and their editorials grew so warm that it called for bullets to settle the mattier. The ending of the duel was a bit out of the ordinary. They proved poor shots and nobody got hit. After several shots were ex changed the two gentlemen to the af fair advanced, saluted each other, and parted. They tlaen went home, feel ing that all old scores had been wiped out and no blood lost. It was, perhaps, the most unique ending that a duel had had at this his toric shooting ground. . A man named Tilly and another named Radcliffe fought a duel at Sand bar Ferry, and the trouble was about a woman of ill repute. One of the parties spread reports about the wo man and the other and a duel follow ed. Tilly was killed. Radcliffe was a consumptive. The affair occurred in the year 1870. A rather out of the ordinary duel at Sandbar was that of two negroes, Mose Sullivan and Peter Blair. There bad been some trouble between the two about a case in the court, and ?bey de ci ? ed ? ?fuel could only ?lear up matters. They went to the Ferry and Peter proved the unlucky one. He received the bullet from Mose's revolver in bis leg. Ee recovered, from.the wound.' This duel was fought in-?87?, as near as can be* learned. Mose Sullivan was afterwards killed in Hamburg in a brawl. ? noted duel but one that did not occur at Sandbar Ferry ground, was that , between ?Jumes M. Smythe and Jboma;? W. Thomas, the former of j Augusta, and the latter of Elbert oounty, who met at Fury's Ferry, about 17 miles from Augusta up the river. Smythe was wounded in the affray. Many other duels were fought at the ferry grounds. As stated, people would come from many States to settle things a la code of honor. It will be remembered that about a year ago the late Col. Felix Holmes the well-known barber-and another man went down there to- fight it out, hut arranged things before blood was shed. An account of the affair, written by Mr. Milledge Lockhart, nc? of the New York Times, but then a reporter on The Herald, appeared in the latter paper. It created a good deal of talk at the time. That was the last time that anyone has gone to the noted duelling grounds to settle a difficulty with another. In mentioning the Sandbar ferry duelling grounds it should be stated that not only was there many duels fought on the Georgia side, but also almost as many on the Carolina side. There was no particular spot where these duels occurred, but within a ra dius of a mile from the ferry proper did the shooting occur. In mention ing the duelling grounds such un area is meant. The authorities never interfered with a duel. If the parties to the Af fair wanted to perforate themselves they were not hampered by the law. But that was some time since. Of course, now such a thing would be nip ped in the bud if the authorities got wind of such. The days of duelling are over, but the historic note of Sandbar ferry not ed duelling grounds will never die. The mere mention of the place brings to mind pistols, early morning, two parties ready to kill or die, a step ping off of so many paces, the words, "Beady, fire !" and an affair ol: honor settled satisfactory to one anyhow. It is best that duelling is over. There are better ways of settling diffi culties. Sandbar ferry is no more the place of bloodshed. The pistols ring out no more at that place, and few people are with us, who can tell from personal knowledge of seeing a duel, of what Sandbar ferry was in ye olden days. Photographing The Stomach. CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, July 3.-Photo graphing the interior of a man's stom ach, an experiment which has hitherto been attended with so many failures as to cause it to be considered almost among the impossibilities, has been successfully performed in thiis city. The inner walls of the stomach of Jas. Gr. Foster, a wealthy lumberman of Cleveland, Ohio, were successfully photographed with the result that a large tumor was discovered to have formed in the organ, which, according to the physicians in attendance, would have caused his death in a short time. Mr. Foster has left for Cleveland, taking the photograph with him, and as a guide,, he will be operated on in a Cleveland hospital. The apparatus used in the picture consists oif a rub ber tube, one-eighth of an inch in di ameter and about three inches long. The interior of the bulb is coated with photographic emulsion, and acts as the plate on which the picture is taken. The patient is made to swal low the bulb, which is to be inflated by means of air blown into the tube until the bulb entirely fills the stom ach, its flexible sides conforming to the walls of the stomach. An X-ray posture is taken, the tube is with drawn and the picture of the thin rub ber bulb is developed as ordinary X ray photography. Will Xot Learn Wisdom. Negro missionaries in the lower sec tion of the State are still taking thc dollars from the old slaves whose heads are set on getting Government pensions. It is said here that the movement got a big "'boost" from the recent convention at Ravenel's, and that the negreos are more anxious than ever to get in thc ranks, not withstanding the fact that they have been told and warned to stay out and save their money. The hope of rich ret ards has drifted into the negroes' soul, however, and as long as there are missionaries to preach there will bc listeners ever ready to stand for any thing suggested in the money line.

President Lincoln's Brotlier-in-Law. Major Clement B. White, ot' Selma, the only surviving brother-in-law of Abraham Lincoln, is nearing three score years and ten, and bears a strik ing resemblance to John Sherman. He is a thorough Southern gentleman of the old school, says an exchange. Major White was an officer of the Alabama State Guard at the outbreak of the war, and under orders of the executive of the State took part with his command in the capture of Fort Morgan, Mobile Bay, before Alabama had formally seceded from the Union. When it was reported to President Lincoln that his brother-in-law had performed this daring exploit against the national authority, on being asked what he would do about it, he replied: "Well, I suppose I shall have to hang White-when we catch him." Major White later performed many distinguished military and civil servi ces for the Confederacy. It was while Mr. White was attend college at Lexington, Ky., that he met and fell in love with Mattie Todd, the sister of Mrs. Lincoln. One summer White went with a brother of Mattie Todd and another friend to pass his vacation at the Todd mansion. The distance was only 28 miles, but the train was four hours in making the trip. To add to the discomfort of the trip one of the party was crowded on a bench occupied by an awkward-look ing countryman, his wife and two children. The children whined and cried nearly all the way. On reaching the Frankfort home they started to recount their experiences on the train. "I was serenaded all the way by a couple of squalling babies," said one. "The father of them was the ugliest white man I ever saw, and the children were the crossest brats I have seen." There was an interruption, a turning of heads, and the gaunt, ugly passen ger, wife and children, came into the room. In his arms was the boy who has since figured in this country's annals as Robert T. Lincoln. Lincoln enjoyed thc joke. He was on his way to Washington as a?Con gressman from Illinois. "He was so entertaining, sympathetic and lively," said Major White, "that wc soon for got that his features were not hand some." After his marriage Major White mettled at Selma, Ala., where he in herited a thriving business and a large property from his father. As a girl, Mattie Todd became a great favorite of Lincoln. At the time of the inau guration, in company with her hus band, she stopped at the White House. Her visits to Washington were fre quent, and, as Lincoln did not wish the war to interrupt them, he gave her a pass which would admit her through the lines at any point she chose. After crossing the Virginia line on a return from a visit, an inspector fol lowed Mrs. White to a hotel, where she stopped and insisted on examining her baggage. The officer' was dis missed at the point of her pistol. On opening her trunk she was amazed to find that friends in Baltimore had stowed away there a splendid sword and a ?suit of uniform for General Robert E. Lee. At first Mrs. White ttiought it best to return to Washington and explain thc whole matter to Lincoln, but her heart was really in the cause of the South, and she felt that General Lee probably needed the uniform. On her arrival at Richmond she consulted President Davis, whom she knew as well as Lincoln, and asked his opin ion. He decided that General Lee must have the presents, and wrote with his own hands the details to Mr. Lincoln. The great man at the White House often twitted Mrs. White about her contretemps. Major White declares that it was not the wish or intention of the peo ple of Alabama to secede from thc Union. Ile says that he believes if Lincoln's "erring sister" programme had been adopted there would have been no civil war, and the emancipa tion of ?laves would have been brought about by gradual and rational means. -Si.

The earth on which wo stand is, no ' doubt, a mighty globe, measuring as it does, 8,000 miles in diameter, yet, says Pearsons Weekly, what are its dimen sions in comparison with those of thc sun ? If the earth be represented by a grain of mustard seed, then on thc same scale thc sun should bc represented by a cocoanut. Perhaps, however, amore impressive , conception of the dimensions of the great orb of day may be obtained in . this way: Think of the moon, the queen j of tlie night, pursuing as she does a | majestic track, at a distance of 240,000 , miles from the earth. Yet the sun is j so vast that if it were a hollow ball j the moon could revolve in the orbit which it now follows and still be en tirely enclosed within the sun's interior. Every portion of this illimitable desert of ?ame is pouring f orth torrents of heat. It has, indeed, been estimated that if the heat which is incessantly flowing through any single square foot of the sun's exterior could bc collected and applied beneath thc boilers of an ! Atlantic liner, it would suffice to pro- j duce steam enough to sustain in con tinuous movement those engines of 30,000 horse-power which enable a superb ship to break the record between Ireland and America.

A young lady organist in u church in Colorado was somewhat captivated with the young pastor of a church in thc next street, and was delighted to hear one week that by an exchange he was to preach the next Sunday in her own church, says an exchange. The organ was pumped by an obstreperous old sexton, who would often stop when he thought the organ voluntary had lasted long enough. This day the or ganist was anxious that all should go well, and as the service was about to begin she wrote a note intended solely for the sexton's eyes. He took it, and, in spite of her agonized beckonings, carried it straight to the preacher. What was that gentleman's astonish ment when he read: "Oblige me this morning by blowing away till I give you a signal to stop.
