A LIVELY DESCRIPTION OF THE CITY
OF MACON.
Appearance or Ute City-Trade and
1*1 nnnfactarei-t hurles tonia nu About
-What is Expected of the Macon nnd
Augusta Itatlroad.
[rsoM otra TBAVEIXJNG COUBESPONDENT.]
MACON, GA , Juno 10,18G9.-This the "cen?
tre town" of Gsorgia, is situated on the Oomul
geo River, six miles from tho geographical
centre of the Slate, which control point lies
betweon Macon and Milledgeville. A more
healthy and salubrious situation for a city,
combining so many marked advantages, could
nob be found in the State. Tho city is built
upon hills which rise in three tiers from the
river bank to an altitud J of 150 or 200 feet.
Socially, Macon is a delightful place, its wo?
men ace beautiful and refined, and hence the
sooiety (like our Charleston circles* and from
the same cause s ) is pure and cplti vatrd. The
private residences are the most commodious
and handsome that I have seen, and, Butrntjn
ded aa they are by terraced gardens, present
au attractive appearance to the visitor. One
of the most striking features of these houses
is tho square turret which surmounts nearly
all of them. A Charleston eye misses the
double piazzas. Mr. W. B. Johnston (a self
made man) lives in a colossal brick dweUing
with a white marble cupola and white marbia
facings, and when the brick work was con?
cealed with cement it resembled a marble pal?
ace. This is probably the handsomest house
in the South. The building alone ?B said to
have cost $150,000. It is superbly arranged,
and gives evidence of great wealth and great
taste. ?
Maesa does not appear to have suffered
much by the hand of war, and is evidently
piospennT. In a business point of view Macon
is doing well, and I know of no city where
money eau be more easily made. The bank
interest is ono and a half per cent, per month,
and planters drafts accepted by factors are
discounted at two and a half and three per
cent, p jr mouth. This is a good business for
t ic numerous banking houses here ; but how
the farmers expect to make money at this rate,
is more than your correspondent om surmise.
There are several large and well kept hotels
here, and they have no cause to complain, roi
even now at this dall season of the year they
average from thirty to forty arrivals per day.
The business houses are large *v>d some of
them handsome. Macon IB regularly laid out,
with wide and partially tree-planted streets.
There is one street-Cotton avenue-which re
thins its primitive windings and meanders
throne,fr the town. The streets from the City
Hall, going down hill, aie numbered ; above
that point there is only one thoroughfare,
College-street and several short streets. The
cross streets are named after trees and run
parallel to the river. The retail stores are to
be found upon Triangular Blook and the bloods
bounded by Mulberry, Cherry, First and Second
streets, and intersected by Cotton avenue.
Third and Fourth streets lay claim to the cot
ton and commission houses. The ne v court?
house is to stand on the corner of Mulberry
and Second streets. The old courthouse at the
foot of the tonner street ts now the property
of the Central Railroid,and is to give place to a
dopot for the Central and Southwestern Ba 1
roads. Churches and public buildings are un
msrotts, including a Methodist Female College,
tbe State Blind Asylam. Macon Cotton Manu?
facturing, Findlay Milling and Hanataofvring
works, and se vet al foundries and machine
shops. There are two daily papers, the Journal
and Messenger, and ?he Telegraph, and one or
more wee alies.
What Macon wants is a little tnergy and en?
terprise ia Its municipal government. Its city
hall, for the want ot paint, is a disgrace to its
oily, and the streets and sidewalks are exe
omble A squad ot workman and eight or ten
oarts are kept bus v all the time, bat the sys?
tem adopted is bad. A tamboura' har i raio
undoes the work of a mouth. Hm could be
changed by grading both streets and side?
walks, coating the^ity muob less in the end,
aaa but little more at the first. Again, ths
wide gaps in the rows of trees should be lilied
up, and many of the streets should have four
rows of trees dividing them into drives', and
a middle promenade for foot passengers.
The citizens are anxious for these changes,
and as the municipal government la ia the
hands of her own people there is no reason
why their wishes should be d isregarded. With
anything like energy and bubinessposh, Macon
muet mal Atlanta. It now. has a larger num?
ber of railroads centreing boro, and these
roads are not short lines. They either termi?
nate at tho seaboard or st rotc li away to the
South and Far West. It surpasses Atlanta, in
the character of ita surrounding oouolry, and'
is a large cotton market.
While speaking of cotton, I would mention
that the factors nore aro paid for their cotton
the same day that they sell, and do not allow
five days' ore lit in their cotton bills. The
merchants are anxious for the completion of
the Augusta, and Macon Railroad. They expect
to operate to some extent with Charleston, sad
if our merchants pursue a liberal polt cy, and
the railroads co-operate with them, tbs Cen?
tral B md and Savannah will feel tos change
perceptibly. The Central Road has pursued
auch an Illiberal policy of high tariffs ?mee the
war that the Maoomtos rejoice that they will
soon be freed from that monopoly.
But ? have not mentioned an euteipnae, for

S^nt?? t?o* S&Sg of ti oanS'o ti
?ht f/f ten miles above this point. ',
posed ronlo has been surveyed for seven sallas,
and it is found inat at this distance from the
city a fall of thirty feet oan bo secured, and
water enough obtained to run fifty or sixty
first-class mills. It is proposed to make this
canal serve at least three distinct purposes, to
wit: turn the mill wheels, bring water to sup?
ply thc oity, and serve as a channel for boats,
to bring wood and country produc? to tho oity.
I am told that the average excavation of tho
proposed canal will be about ten feet, although
at Borne points they will have to dig down to a
considerable depth, and at others they will
have io fill up the ravines.
I find many Carolina and sevoral Charleston
names among the merchants and business
men bore, and they all inquirn anxiously about
the dear old city and its futuro prospeots.
Those who, in infancy, bave boen hushed to
sleep by tbe rustle of tbe palmetto as its leaves
were stirred by Atlantic breezes, seem to cling
with fond remembrance to that past, and ever
to wish success and happiness to our "City by
the Sea."

know in Charleston rov-boat circles, will float

8EMLOH.
A. TALK WITH. MR. PEABODY.
His Views on American and British Re?
lations-Mr. Sumner's Speech-No Prob?
ability- of War-Mr. Peabody's Charl
ties in England and the United States?
Mr. George Peabody, the great philanthro?
pist, who arrived at Mew York a few days ago
from Europe, bas gone to Massachusetts 'o
visit his relatives and intimate friends. His
health, it is said, is not good, although he is
not seriously indisposed, considering his ad?
vanced age. A correspondent of a New York
journal has had an interview with him, and
makes the following report :
To the inquiry, "What was and is the average
opinion of English statesmen aud the English
people of tho merits of the present question
between the United Stetes and Great liri tam ?' '
ho responded :
"Well, at first, men in England accepted
Sumner's SDoecb as the utterance, as it wero,
of 'a man behind tho throne' 1 hey sup nosed
that he spoko not only on behalf of the Senate
and tho Radical party hero, but as a mouth?
piece of the administration it self. This you
know, because you have seen the evidence of
it in the London newspapers, and beoause
it had infeoted ali the telegrams which have
been sent from London across the Atlantic."
"Mr. Sumner's speech was then a surprise in
Englaud ?"
'.A surprise, certs in! j; though they were
?irepared for some such expression by tbe re
eotion of the Johnson-Stanley treaty. Upon
that treaty all Englaud was willing e'nough to
stand. It had been long considered-discuss
< d in the most puhho way, so that everybody
understood what it was. It offended very few
people, and there was a strong hope-largely
due to Mr. Johnson's confidence in the matter
-that th i Senate would confirm it."
"Mr. Johnson gained good opinions in Eng?
land?"
"He was very much thought of. Nay, more;
no American in his position could have taken
a stronger hold upon the hearts, the affections
of Englishmen. They only thought (the'
thoughtful among them) that he waa not dis?
creet enough; that he waa too confident ; that
he promised too muoh-as .the sequel shows.
Mr. Johnson came down to Brighton, where ?
Was staving, and remained some time, and I
believe I oan testify to the honesty and earnest
ness of bis convictions and endeavors."
"Did the sudden exDlosion of Sumner's bom?
bastic bombshell produce an apprehension of
war?"
"No. The government was not led BO far as
to anticipate that; and even the journals which
have talked the loudest didn't believe in any
such probability. Their first instinct was, ol
com se, to stiffen the national spine, and let
people on this side of the water know that
there wasn't any willingness to be imposed
upon in the modern nature of John Bull
But no person of any consideration believ
ed, from the first, that war could come of
this difficulty. The commercial interests
of the two countries are so interwoven and
mutually dependent that, for this reason
alone, war was thought to be hardly possible, "
"Was all this loud talk by the English press
mere sham talk ?"
"Oh, no, it wasn't altogether intended for
that, be sure, lt was in good part and faith
the interpretation of the real feeling of En?
glishmen. When you touch an Englishman's
sense of honor, personal or national, you touch
bim in the tenderest place. He resents it.
Every mau in England would have been wil?
ling to resent, to the extremity or war, the de?
mand whioh Sumner sought to get the admin
istration to enforce. Mr. Bright, who was the
last man I saw in Loudon before I left, (be
lunohed with mo at 2 o'clock, and I left at 5,)
confirmed me in this impression. And there
is no one tuero who has a more earnest affec?
tion for this country than has Mr. Bright.
Nsi'ker he nor any other E iglishman oould
accept the preposterous theory of Sumner."
"So Mr. Sumner, as I anticipate, bas oeased
to be the recognized expositor ot Americio
opinion in England." ?
'Doo ide div. His speech, up to the tim J
when 1 left", had come to be regarded as a
speech made more for 'buncomhe' tuan for any?
thing else. It was pretty well accepted as a
bid by Sumner for popularity. The disclaim?
ers of the American press bad produced a reac?
tion. Several of the most eminent representa?
tive men in England, associated with every
phase of politics there, whom I met. and who
addressed me in writing before my departure,
assured me of their conviction that Sumner's
logio would not can vinco the majority on either
side of the Atlantic."
"With this conviction, what is the present
attitude of the British Government and the
Eng.ish people ?"
"They fold their arms. They 'rest on their
oars.' ' They considered that the Johnson
Stanley treaty conceded everything that Gre t
Britain ought to eon cede. They will not go no
farther in the way- of concession. They trust
the United States Government will go no
farther io the way of demands. They have no
sympathy with the Bad cal porty in this coun?
try (I speak of the majority ot Englishmen)
but they repose some confidence in tho good
sense of the present administration. They
were prepared to regard Mr. Motley's advent as
a peaceful one. (I did not Bee Mr. Motley,
whom I know. The steamer m which I oame
out passed his, arriving.")
. Mr. Motley was not expected to mike any
definite fut ther demand?"
"That was my impression."
??How about Great Britain?"
"The British Government will make no pro?
posal. The whole matter, so far as Great
Britain is concerned, remains tn open ques?
tion. She abides in the principle ot the lunn
son-Stanley treaty as bofor?. Against any un?
reasonable exaction beyond that basts. I be?
lieve she would resolve to fight*"
Mr. Peabody inquired whether Mr. Reverdy
Johnson had received any reception or other
testimony of public regard since bis return
to this country ? Nothing of the kind h kl
been reported ra the Baltimore newspapers.
Although a number of' visit?n had called to
see bim. the Anglo-American philanthropist
was willing (having quitted the international
question) to explain BOU?? facts oouneoted with
bia numerous chanties. He animadverted, in
j ftltahtoJM^^ mtsstate
I menta of ujje results or bis benefaction? in
I London. Nothing' oould have bean mote in?
teresting than tbe old gentlemen'? manner and
conversation at this stage of the Interview. Ho
sat at the other end of the sofa, with ODO lag
crossed over the opposite knee, eoogbtjg oc?
casionally andi looking somewhat infirm. His
epugb, he said, was doe to an affection or the
bronchial tubes sui of the n?rvea M?? M?? ~t
o? ?io si, .moon. At ,W;^J^\W
Poabody, ' to get over ito* Of the houses'f>r
the poor of Ldhuon he said :
"Four houses in all have been erected, ?ad a
*4a
filth building ns under way. The tour houses
contain about 1300 rooms and accommodate
aoout 2200 people. A 1 the rooms are occupied.
Tho average rent of a room is about 2a. per
wook : of two rooms 5*. per week, according to
size, ?3. The expense of erecting and main?
taining thoso buildings, thus (ar, has buen loss
. than ?150 OOO, winch leaves ?250,000 untouch?
ed, including accumulated interest and rent?.
Some detrimental and ignorant reports bave
placed the architects' fees at an enormou*s?g
ure. The faot is, tbat the whole sum of archi?
tects' fees, up to the present time, has amount?
ed to not more than ?3000, on all buildings
erected and ali ianda purchased. The expense
of the whole concern, including the pay of tho
secretary and agents, does not amount to more
than ?500 to ?600 a 3 car. It is managed eco?
nomically, for the sole, exclusive beueflt
of the industrious poor, fir whom it
was designed. Neither myself nor the
trustees receive a dollar of income from
it. lt is reproductivo entirely. The routs
and interest are intended to bo perpetually ap?
plied for the purpose for which the original
sum was designed. Two houses similar to
those already built will soon be put np. In the
oourso of a century, this fund and the revenue
derived from it ought io provide bo nos for the
Door of all London. The enterprises of Miss
Coutts and of Waterloo are conducted, on an
entirely different basis. Miss Coutts' m rket
houso at Bethnal Green is not a purely chari?
table institution. Every stall in that building
is railed by the lady on her own acconnt."??.
To the question how his American chan, t JS
had operated, the philanthropist replied frat
thoy were - operating to his complete satisfac?
tion in every respect. He considered tuem
the most beneficent of investments in t'.wir
way.
Mr. Peabodv proceeded to stale that he had
given away, altogether, $7.000 000. He first
made his f.imilv nob, by scouring to the mem?
bers thereof $1,500,000. His gift to the Pea?
body Institute in Baltimore was $1000.000 . Ha
presented something like $1.400,000 to the Uni?
versities of Harvard and Yale, and to institu?
tions in Salem, Dan /era and elsewhere. He
presented $2,000,000 to ai j the cause of educa?
tion in the South-$1,000,000 in cash and $1,000
000 of Mississippi B?X percent, bonds, Inch,"
said air. Peabody, "will ultimately be good."
It is evident enough that the enormously
wealthy dispenser of millions who sat there on
the sofa is far down the decline ot life. Yet
many years may yet bo insured to him by! bis
temperate habits and his naturally robust Con?
stitution.
THE PRESIDENT'S PERIL.
Partiealan of the A cc i nc nt to the Train
Conveying President Grant and Party
to Boston-Mr. Selby's Account. ft 1
The Washington papers brings us ful! de?
tails of tho railway accident on Wednesday
night between Washington and Baltimore, in
which President Grant and thc friends ?vho
were accompanying him to the Boston Peace
Festival had so narrow an escape: '
It seems that the train, while passing through
the deep out just beyond Annapolis Junction,
at about 9 40 I*. M , iran ngainst a oow, w* ich
was killed and thrown from tho track b.v|the
cowcatcher aHaohed to tho locomotive; but tho
mangled body rolled down the embankment
just after the passage of tbe eugine, tender and
mail oar and toll across the track between the
trucks of the baggage ear. Tho sudden shook
tipped np the front part of the baggage Car,
thro wins it off the track and bteaKing the con?
nection with the mail car, which, with 1 ho Iwo
mo' ive, ran tor some distance before the sp. ?ed
could be slackened sufficiently lo 1 ot urn tc .ijo
scene of the disaster. As soon as tho torwMB
motion of the baggage car wae checked bjAte
obstruction, and it was thrown irorn tba txwk,
tho smoking car ran into it and waa mW>
plotely smashed. Tho largest piece oiHhe
wreck of this car was a fragment of che rfroy.
which could be lilted by two men. ?Next t J tbo
smoking car was a passenger oar. wbicir&aaj:
thrown diagonally across the' track, an J iSumr
uoth? embankment;Sfeaspie*-?* ^looking tue
r-M~.fc.oz- tuuKi-ess of the tran. The two suc?
ceeding passenger oars were somoa bat dom?
amaged; but the two sleeping cars and the
s eec al car, with the Presidential party, es?
caped damage. The darkness of tho 'night
added to the horror of tbe situation, as it ore
vented toe uninjured passengers from seeing
the full extent of the disaster, and left it to the
imagination to picture, while the cries and
groans of the wounded were frightful to hear.
The embankment at the point where the acci?
dent occurred, ls about twenty foot high.
Conductor Duval I at once telegraphed from
the Junction to Baltimore and Washington,
and in little more than an boor alter the acci?
dent engines with men to clear the wreck, and
surgeons to attend the wounded, arrived at
the Junction from Baltimore. Captain John
Collins also started out from Washington with
an engine, carrying man to hslp clear the
wreck, and the combined forces soon succeeded
in removing the wounded and clearing the
track of the debris. The work of clearing one
track was finished about three o'clock this
morning, and at four o'clock the uninjured
passengers, a por? ion of the wounded and the
mail were taken on to Baltimore. The first
reports ss to the extent of the disaster were
much exaggerated, the number.of Killed and
wounded being estimated in large figures.
Later and more reliable accounts show that the
large majority of the passengers were almost
miraculously saved from injury. There were
none killed and but twelve or fifteen wounded.
Most of them received slight injuries. Mr.
Weil, of Atlanta, Ga., is the only passenger
seriously injured. His head is badly cut, and
it is feared his skull is fractured. He was em?
igrating agent of Georgia, and was on his way
to Europe.
Another account says :
The smoking car fared the worst, it being
overturned and whirled around endwise upon
the track. It was very badly smashed up. and
it was in this ocr that most ali. ot the injuries
to passengers occurred. The Mr. Weil referred
to as being seriously injured was seated in this
car. He was on his xray to New York with a
view of proceeding to Enro?o. His injuries
are principally about the head, be having been
badly bruised and received a severe out on the
lett side of hie bead and face, extending from
a short distance above the forehead to about
ap inch below the lett eye, eo that it is behoved
the sight of the latter is entirely destroyed.
He was taken up insensible, but in time
recovered consciousness, and the physi?
cian, in attendance reports that ne is
doing well, and ia not necessarily dangerously
wounded, though he is believed to be injured
trioie or less internally aa well as externally.
Tho second paesenger oar was not shattered as
badly as either of the other two, but was badly
broken, nor were any of the passengers se?
riously injured, though several received
bruises, ftc. Tbe-forward end of one of the
Bleeoing oars was considerably smashed, but
none of the passengers were injured. The
special car, oooupied hy General Grant and
family, esoaped without injury, and they pro?
ceeded on to Baltimore and continued nor tn.
It is a source of wonder to railroad men anc
others that an accident of suob magnitude as
the one desonbed above could occur with nc
more serious results as to the loss of life ave
maiming of individuals.
MB. SELBY'S STATEMENT.
Tbe "gentleman from Ch irleston" alluded t<
in our telegrams as badly bruised, was Mr
John Clifford. Mr. Julian A. Selby, editor o
the Colombia Pheonix, was also s passenger
?nd was seated with s lady in the ladies' car
the second one that went off the track. Hit
statement conveys sn idea of the alarm am
wonderful features of the sosne.
Tbs locomotive, mail and baggage car rai
some distance ahead before they were checked
The smoking oar, filled with passengers, wa
thrown across tbs track, with ons end elevate*
at least ten feet np the embankment, sod torn
ed completely upside down and wrecked, seve
rai of the occupants being seriously burt. Th
ladies9 ear followed, and was tolerably filie*
with passengers, mostly ladies and children
It was thrown on its sir's ^directly across tb
track, the ends resting on the banks on bot]
Bides of the track.
1 hearne presented was one never to be fox
gotten. Mr* Seibv say? that hearing the nois
of tho oar ahead running on tbe cross-ties
abd the breaking and crash aa it went ovei
and feeling the jar lp the oar In which he Wa
Bitting, he braced himself io bia seat, poislB
him,T!, ma ibo oar went ovar. He aeized hoi
of the seat with ona lund, holding on to tb
lady in hie company and firmly eupporting he
with the other arm, and ss tho oar eras slue
siro md ?id over on its Bide individuals we*
indiscriminate!7 tombed pell mell rogethc
upon tba alda which ratted some three fe?
from tho ?round. Mr. Selby found himself be?
neath a number of fellow passengers, male and
female, who were soon struggling amid the
din and alarm for ex:rica ion. In the catas?
trophe all the lights bad been extinguished,
and men, woroon and children were screaming
ai the top of their voices, and, all bein? io total
darkness, no one could tell at the time tho ex?
tent of the accident or ascertain who had
been injured or who had escaped. There
was no chenco of egress from the car by
the doors, its ends being embedded in tho
banks. Follovvin r the promptings of instinct,
Mr. Selby, who had maintained a pretty good
osition, and never lost his presence of mind,
nooked oui a window sash which he felt below
him, with his foot, and creeping out from be?
neath the ruins, was at once in a position to re?
lieve others. One alter another, thon, ho re?
ceived women and children in that car as they
were brought forward and handed out by other
male passengers. An aged lady fell through
one of the windows, and had her head badly
out, and an infant and its colored nurse were
hart badly, bat with those exe -p .ions tho pas?
sengers rn this caral! escaped serious injurv,
although no oue got off without bruises. The
chair car followed, and crashing against the
dilapidated ladies' car, was also thrown on its
aide, and tho passengers shared about the
same fate of thos3 in the ladies' car. Tho
Blooping cars were also thrown off but not up
Bot, an.4 no one in them was hurt. The Presi?
dent's oar remained on the track, and none
were disturbed io it. ?
THE HUGHES CAMERON DUEL,.
Thc Article that 1'rovokcd the Fight
Arrangements tor ? Meeting-The Po?
lice I n te riere-The Second Meeting and
its Kesalt.
Th? Richmond Dispatch gives the folio wie g
particulars in regard to tho affair of honor be?
tween Captain William E. Cameron, of the Pe?
tersburg Index, a well known and ably edited
Couservativo journal, and Bobert VV. Hughes,
Esq., who is reputed to be editorially coonee'
ed with the Richmond State Journal (Radical:)
THE SUPPOSED CAUSE.
Tho difficulty is said to have grown out of a
leading article in the Index of MOL-day last,
which we herewith publish :
"There is sn article in the Friday evening's state
Journal which, in ita vileness and virulence betrays
ils parentage. Bell has no tury like a woman
scorned, perhaps, but humanity knows no haired so
bitter, so reckless, so unrelenting, as that the traitor
feels towards those whom be has betrayed. None
but a renegade Virginian, smarting under ibe sense
of bis own BbameW ss treachery, and brimming witb
enmity to all that ls better and truer than himself
au Arnold seek ng to cloak his buseuess by Blander of
the cause he his sold-could nave penned suth
language lu regard to Virginia gentlemen as th-.t
which we quote:
" 'If names could typify the meaning of wor ls,
the men? mme. (?kel, uphartin, which a bloody and
destructive history ins pronounced upon the Sec?
tio.isl p JV ty mat has BO long ruled and ruined in
Virginia, is especially expressed in such names as
Bobuck, Douglas and Aylett. 'Ibese are but ty pps
ot 'he el its wno have gone forth to lebivoke the pto
{>le to cou sea of treason. It is well for tho cause of
oyalty, reconstruction and State re .enera lion, that
a das ? of parricides so notorious, with the mark of
Ca<n on their foreheads and tbe gul.t ot Cain upon
thrir c onsvioiico.B, have (tone out as the champions
of a discontented, remonstrant, and incorrigible sec?
tionalism. They know that tho ascendency of na?
tional ideas and loyal sentiments must consign tb* m
to fixed and braided o:ec uri ty ; and,' in the spirit of
Beelaebub, 'better to rulo lu heil than to herve ia
Heaven,' they ure ready to drag down the Common?
wealth into a deeper damnat on than that lu which
she already writhes and p> riah s.'
"lhere is only one J -rarnailftt lu this State who is
at the B ime time sufficiently capable as a writer ai d
utterly degraded enough in chai actor to h iv.; indict?
ed ihose lines He la one of those who lent trucu?
lence and almost inhuman bitterness to the Bi ch?
ino:.d Examiner during the war-the mon upon
whom Jobs M.. Daniel chiefly relied for his strongest
appeals to the wor t passions of our people. Be sat
at tbe ieetof John B. Floyd, a disciple who forgot
all that wa-i good in the lessons of his master, but
seised upon i he bad with the instinct of natural de?
pravity, cultivating and dev.loping it ut til bo has
sunk to a derth which Pete? ic his denial never
j.in-". fiy. JU-a* f?U after, tte, * ar w?a. .to connect
himself wi tb. tbe airUest or .li ?JO pon?ui?u?? .Ci?*.
which have disgraced Vu gtnls since 'Ci-the Bled,
mond li' public-and his undeniable versatility as a
writer was there employed to brand as infamous
all that be bad advocated for six years 1-lo?
vions. Since then he hss played a part- which
ls, thank God, stranger to Virginia Jour?
nalism. His venal pen has been sold to the hlgbest
bidder to bolster up any and every cause whose di?
rectors were willing to boy his b'ains. He has
said that bis articles were merchandise, and that
if sufficiently remunerated he would teel warrant
? ed in arguing for polygamy. And the time came
when bis former friends, finding how valu?les*
Were words which the public knew were bought
i and sold like herrings in the market, ceased to re-.
[ m em Der his talent la the presence of his want of
princip e.
"tio is now contributing editorially to the Kich
mond Sta to Journal, which hus lost thereby four
I fifths of its previous claim to respectability. The
people of Virginia want no stronger evidence of un
reliabilltv in a public print than to know that its sen?
timents flow fretn the purchased pen ot Bobert W.
Hughes."
A OHAIXBRGB.
On the appearance of this article it was un?
derstood thal Mr. Ernest Wiltz, the local editor
of the Journal, immediately left Richmond'
with a note from Mr. Hughes to Captain Cam?
eron, ia the nature of a peremptory challenge,
and requesting the latter, as the phrase goes,
lo "name a friend."
THE RESPONSE.
Captain Cameron ia said to have promptly
; avowed bis responsibility for all that appears
I in bis editorial columns, and named Mr.
Ernest Lagarde, the local editor of the Peters?
burg Express, as a friend to whom the com?
munications of air. Hughes eould be address?
ed. Of the correspondence that ensued be?
tween Messrs. Wihz and Lagarde nothing posi?
tive can be stated. It is rumored, however,
that Mr. Wilts demanded on behalf of his
friend a tull and public retraction, accompa?
nied oy a generous and chivalrous expression
ot Mr. Cameron's regret at tho publication of
the offensive article. This was positively de?
clined by Mr. Lagarde, and this d-o'aration left
no alternative buts meeting according to "the
Code.'' There is a report that delay was ask?
ed by Captain Cameron of a day or two on
account of the delicate health of his wife, but
of che exact nature of this request we aro not
advised.
A HOSTILE MEETING.
Certain it is that a hostile mooting was
agreed upon, and on Thursday evening the
"seconds" were to meet in Biobmond and ar?
range the usual preliminaries about time, place
and weapon). This plan, however, was frus?
trated by an unexpected move on the part ot
some one wno got wind of the affair, and deem?
ed it bis duty to apprise Mayor Obahoon of the
fact that a duel was on the tapis.
OFFICIAL INTERFERENCE.
Thia official at once brought, mattera to ft
temporary stand-still by Arresting Mr. Wilts
and planing him under bonds to keep the peace.
Ho also telegraphed to Mayor Newberry, of
Petersburg, to arrest the parties retndiog in
that city. The order reached Petersburg too
late, however: for when it was reoeived Captain
Cameron and Mr. Lagarde acre noir to be
found. In the meantime Mr. Wilts was re
lea seo on bail, and lett town on Thursday night
or Friday morning.
ON TBK FI EID.
Mr. Wilts yesterday morniog made bis ap?
pearance ia the village of Ches er, on the Pe?
tersburg Railroad, about fourteen miles from
Richmond, and not far from the Bpot designa?
ted by rumor as the battle-ground. Finding
that his purpose was suspected by the resi?
dent magistrates, he secreted himself-and at
the first opportunity made a sally in the
direction til the field. On bis way ho met
C..ptam Cameron, who was accompanied
by his seconde. Mr. Lagarde and Cap?
tain Bogers, and also by General Mabono,
Mr. Hughe i and his friend, Colonel Clark?
son, were momentarily expected; and every?
thing looked fav >rable to ao exchange ot fire,
when the Sudden appearance of Justice
Lindsey, of Chesterfield, and a sp? Mal con?
stable, caused ? sensation. Efforts were, of
course, made to escape the clutches ot the
officer a, but they were unsuccessful, except aa
to Mr. Cameron, who ia Bald to have made good
his retreat. The whole party, consisting of
Sr. Hoghes, Colonel Clarkson, Captain
>gers. and Mr. Lagarde, were then placed
under bonds to keop the peace.
OOHS SOUTH.
TIM is the story as it was received here h?%
night, but as nope of the pai ties have returned
to the olty, it cannot be considered entirely re?
liable. It was stated, and generally believed,
that the duellists have repaired to North Caro
moleatatioa of offioera ot tho peace. ,;; ,? |
