It is said that tho English owner of a pretty, little park,, near Paris, has boen so mach annoyed by continual applica? tions from persons engaged in dnefs for Eer mission to use his grounds that ho ae been compelled to intimate to the professors of small sword and pistol the propriety of having a park of their own. Pans, Which contains ni m oat everything else in the world, is destitute, it seems, of a suitable dueling ground. The want is felt to be a serious one, in view of the recent extensive revival in that city of a practico which the reason of man? kind has long since) condemned as sense? less and barbarous, and which, almost everywhere else, has become obsolete. Ita France, civilization in this respect ap? pears to havo taken a step backwards. A lighting mania lias taken hold.of a cer? tain portion of Parisian society. It is the subject of earnest comment in the English press. The Saturday Review goes so far as to say that "it begins to look .as if Englishmen would soon find a knowledge of the sword, or of the pistol at least, as indispensable a requisite to r?sidence in Franco as it was in the years which followed tho battle of Waterloo." It adds, half seriously, that "if it wero not BO late in tho season for such an en? terprise; We should recommend the pub licati?n of a six-penny hand-book of thu art for'tho use of English visitors to Pa? ris," j ? ,y Yet it does not appear that any par? ticular grudge against Englishmen is nt the bottom of* any of the duels which have been'lately fought. If Englishmen are more apt than other foreigners to be drawn into unpleasant collisions with Frenchmen, it must be because of the national trait of bad maimers which they are in the habit of carrying with them abroad. On the - contrary, most of the duels which have taken placo have beei: between Freuobmeu, and in a majority of cases tho parties wero journalists, 01 the provocation grew out of something published in the paper?. In many in stances, it is but the orit-cropping of UH long-standiug feud between the Bona partists and the Republicans. In sud cases, the Government looks mildly on apparently well pleased to see the gen tleinen of the quill cutting each othcr'i throats, or, at least, indifferent at the re suit. No attempt is made by the police usually so vigilant, to spoil the sport and the preliminary arrangements ari made with almost as much publicity a the particulars are afterwards canvassed Perhaps in allowing this large liceos to journalists, the Government seeks t make amends for the restrictions im posed upon them in other respects. I is the French liberty of the press. An other reason for the non-interference c Government in duels between editoi may possibly be that the most celebrate duelist and best swordsman in Paris i an ardent supporter of the empire-Al Paul de Cassagnac-one of the editoi >)f the Pays. This gentleman has r< cently had a duel with M. Gustave d Flonrens, esteemed the best fencer arnon the Republicans. The offence giveu wi that M. Cassagnac, in tho Pays, spoil of M. Flonreus os a "mad Republican, describing himself, at the samo time, o a "mad Bonapartist." On the da originally appointed for a hostile mee ing, M. Cassagnac was at home, sic! M. Flourens permitted himself to ii dulge in some rather indelicate jokes i regard to the nature of M. Cassagnac sickness. Another meeting was arrange for the next day. M. ?assognac ro from his sick bed, and after a combat twenty-five minutes' duration, chara terized by a display of great skill ai coolness on both sides, he wounded ? Flonrens in three places-hand, arm ai breast. This done, M. Cassagnac wro a card for publication, explanatory of 1 failure to come to time on the first da and went back to bed. As soon as I Cassagnac recovers from his fever ai M. Flonrens from his wounds, it is sa they will fight again. In the meantime, a gentleman, at pi sent confined in one of the Paris priso for some political offence, but whe term of imprisonment is abont to t pire, addresses M. Cassagnac, public! a challenge of a different character. I stead of swords, the weapon for his mi terr of which M. Cassagnac has gain such a reputation, he. proposes pisto and that they shall fight breast to brea each placing the muzzle of his pis against the other's forehead, one pis only to be charged with ball, the oho of pistols to be determined by lot, o neither to know when the word is giv who has the loaded weapon. , X tempting invitation being out of his li of business, M. Cassagnac has been co polled to decline. Thus, in the most refined capital the world, the practices of a bsrbqrc age are revived, and duels are fought i only with impunity, so far as any acti of the authorities is concerned, but w every attendant circumstance of pul city, to give eclat to the occasion and actors. The provocations are not uni quently given in the most public m ner, sometimes through the columns the press, and with the avowed purp of provoking a duel. By and by cl lenges will be passed and accep through the same medium, and a risian will never know wba pleasant tie entertainment of the kind may awaiting him each day, until he has r the "personals" in his morning paj Thus tho very appliances of our higl barons uric, and we tire reminded how much of that very civilization is bat the outside varnish or veneering, beneath which lurks the original and inveterate savage-man.-Baltimore Sun. PENAL COLONY FOR NOBTH CAROUNA. We learn from tho Warren ton (N. C.) Present, that four negro Women and one negro man were sentenced "at thc last Warren County Court to banishment to South Carolina, "with the verbal promise of a heavy penalty, should they ever show their faces" in North Carolina. A similar punishment was imposed at the late term of Edgecombe County Conrt. . How will the Palmetto Stato like that? Che may retaliate if she likes, with inte? rest, by banishing her rogues to North Carolina. Special Notices.

To thi People of South Carolina : Tho above Company was organized in 1SCC, in cons?quence of thu wholesale forfeiture of Southern policies by Northern companies. The unparalleled success of thc enterprise bas forced several of theso companies to restore their Southern policies, from tho fact that they could not operate in our midtt without thc ap? pearance of honesty. We keep all our money at home to build up our impoverished country-every dollar ol premium being nafe!r invested in tho State from which it is derived. Tho institution is purely Southern, and hence should appeal with great force to the patriotism and tympa thy of every Southern heart. 'Tis not our purpose to make v ar on other companies, but to exhibit the special advan? tages offered by this purely Southern Compa? ny-founded on patriotism and solid wealth. Ita ratio of assets to liabilities-the true test of a company's strength, is second to none on this continent-being nearly ?500 to KO. Whenever and wherever we have presented the claims of this Company, it has not only enlisted the sympathies ol our people, but has also secured their hearty co-operation. We have secured 500 policies in Soxth Carolina since the loth of February. We number among our Directors Gen. Wado Hampton and Col. Wm. Johnston, gentlemen well known to every citizen of South Carolina. Wo appeal personally to the people of South Carolina to assist in pushing forward this deservedly popular Southern institution. J.
