A few days ago, some three or four gentlemen were seated in a first olass carriage of this train. One was the Count-, a Prussian nobleman, going to Berlin. He was conversing in a loud voice with a gentleman next, him, giving a full ac? count of Bomo of tho political and warlike events of last year, and iu that arrogantly offensive tone which is very characteristic of the Prussian of the modern Bismarck school, ho swaggered overmuch nt tho expeuso of Austria. Another gentleman in the opposite corner of the oarringe, could not help over-hearing this lan? guage, and he was naturally much disgusted, being the Baron-, anti Austrian Colonel. Indeed, at last, the Baron, to get out of ear-shot, or to cool his rage, opened the window and kept his head out. The Prussian onrnplain?d of the cold, and at last peremptorily requested that the win? dow Lo shut. "You fear tho cold," said the Baron, more euraged than ever. "We shall see by and by whether you fear tho fire." The Count understood him. "Whenever you like," said he. It so happens that this traiu stops an hour at Lille. The Baron-ran to the barrack and introduced hiiuseld, told his story, and found two officers who consented to act as his secouds. The Count found two of his coun? trymen traveling iu tho train, who did the honorable needful for him. They found the nearest retired place, but the wholo of the passengers, who somehow got intelligence of tho mat? ter, followed them, aud wore present. Pistols hud been brought from the barracks. Tho combatants were ar? ranged at twenty-five paces from each other. One of tho seconds, standing out, clapped his hands three times. At tho third stroke-bang! bong! both fire together. Tho Baron falls, his knee broken. The Prus? sian is not touched, but, with con? tinued arrogance, he says, moving off, "Gentlemen, excuse me, but I am in a hurry to get homo, and I must pot miss tho train." "Not yet, not yet, if you please," 6aid tho Aus? trian Colonel, lifting himself from the ground, and pale and ghastly, standing ou ono leg. "one more round, if you please." The Prus? sian bcoame livid, but took his place agaiu. They fired, and the Austrian shot his mau through tho brain. The Count sprang ti foot from the ground and fell down dead. Painted Cotton Ties.
