Rhett and Judge Cooley, of New Orleans. Xew Orleans, July 1. The Evening Herald lias the foljlowing particulars of the duel: "For several days past this community has been much excited by the apprehensions of a, duel between Poionr.] Ti. liliett. Jr.. the editor VVlwuv. *.% / of the Picayune, and Judge Win. II. Cooler, the leading counsel in the case of Hawkins vs. the Picayune. On Friday 'Colonel Rhett sent?, a peremptory challenge to Judge Cooley, which was accepted. The meeting, however, was agreed to be postponeu until Tuesday, on account of Judge Cooley's engagement to a.rguc the j'ule for a new trial before Judge Hawkins, which came up yesterday. During the course of the argument Judge Cooley, in opposing the motion for a continuance, remarked that-if the case went on until Wednesday he migiat not be alive to argue it. And so it sadly turned out. The parties left in the Mobile train at 8 o'clock this morning, arriving at 1 Montgomery Station about 10 o'clock, where the part}' got off. < Montgomery oration wnere rne duel occurred is a wild sandy looking place, some four or live miles this side of Bay St. Louis, where the road passes through a wood of tall pines, behind which is an open ; field. Near by and on the line of the railroad is a small cottage occu- i pied by a family, but, with this ex- i ception, there are no residents .1 nearer than three quarters of a mile. . This difficulty is one of the sad results of the iniquitous Hawkins suit against the Picayune, of ' which Colonel Rhett is the editor; In his spcech for'the prosecution ( Judge Cooley made ' reflections ) upon that paper which called forth J the'editorial in 'the next issue of f tho Picayune pronouncing them ( false. Judge Coo ley then addressed a communication to the editor call- | ing for explanations, which not being accorded, he followed it up ' by "publishing a -card assailing J Colonel Rhett. A challenge 1 promptly followed, and the result I is how before otir readers. This is ' not tiie first duel in which Judge ( Sooley has been conce^r\tfd. Some t rears before tlie war he met Dr. j Kaufman, one of his parishioners, lpon the field of honor, and a^fer in exchange of shots an amicable idjustment of the difficulty .was * made, and thereafter the parties be- c ?ame warm friends.

Tlijs amiable and lovely young girl was born in BaUymuna, County Antrim, Ireland, on the 18th of Octo her, 1855. At an early ago her parents emigrated to'America; atid.settled in AbbeviUe villuge, South Carolina. Amongst the good and kind people.of that town this little child grow up, tenderly beloved and cheiished by all her schoolmates, playmates, Sunday-school teachers, pastor? und others. She had a sweet and gentle disposition, an open and frank countenance, a truthful and generous] heart. She was quick to leurn and ever ready to perform. It was in] the performance of a self-sacrificing duty that she contracted the disease which terminated her life. Those, whose charge she was under, Speak in unmeasured terms of her faithfulness and attention to duty. Berng iti ix position where her patience and fortitude were often taxed to the utmost, she was scarcely over heard Lo murmur or complain. But alas! l4iis noble girl was doomed to die. Already had the seeds of d?ath been planted. About I he first of April >he took her bed.

Although dear Eva is gono fjom imongst us, yet we know that she iweetly sleeps in the arms Of her Redeemer. In the early part of 1872, celing, no doubt, the importance of a ^reparation'for d.eath, she joined ilarion Strecr Methodist EpisC-opalJhurch, and frorfrthift time became a rue, consistent and z'ealoug co-worker u the vineyard of the Lord.
