I once attempted to cut a fellow out

and got kicked for my pains. She is
a nice gal—a fine gal is Mary Haines.
Levi Sudth had been her acknowl

attended to all her little affairs of am

to ha married. That I believe is the
explanation. I would not say a word

OXE WAY iT FIGHT A DUEL.
A Scotch major, who had been so
skillful with a sword as to fight several
duels with repeated success, but who,
on account of his extreme desire for
quarreling, when a little intoxicated,
and for his boasted courage, was de
serted and despised by his brother offi
cers, came one evening to a large com
pany. There happened to be present
a Yankee, an officer of the same regi
ment, which was then stationed. He
related among other things, the failure
of a certain expedition, in whicli he
had the misfortune to be wounded.
“ That was because you were a ras
cally set of cowards,” observed the
major.
“You are a d—d liar!” says the
Yankee.
The company started.
The Scotchman looked down on
him with as much contempt as (Joliah
did udon David, and immediately ask
ed, “ Are you a man to meet me ?”
“Yes,” replied the Yankee, “at any
time and where you please, only with
the proviso that we meet without sec
onds.”
“ Well, then, to-morrow morning, at
5 o’clock, at .”
The company present endeavored to
dissuade the Yankee, telling him the
major had every advantage where he
had none, and he had better compro
mise matters ere he had cause to re-
pent his rashness, hut he still persisted.
The next morning the Yankee re
paired to the jdaee somewhat before
the appointed hour, armed with a large
musket Shortly after, the major
made his appearance with a brace of
pistols and sword. Before he had ad
vanced far, the Yankee, in an austere
tone, hid him stop or he would blow
his brains out The major, struck witli
amazement nt this unexpected strata
gem, reluctantly obeyed, hut expostu
lated with him on the injuatiee of such
ungen tlemanlike proceedings. The
Yankee was implacable, and determin
ed to punish him for past conduct, and
the abuse he had himself received.
“ Lay down your sword and pistols!”
says he, (still presenting his musket,)
“ and to the right about face, march.”
The poor major was again under the
necessity of obeying, and, uttering a
volley of curses against his star, pas
sively submitted. The Yankee then
quietly took possession of his arms.
“ ’Tis base, ’tis cowardly, thus to dis
arm me of all defence!” says the ma
jor.
“ No,” replied his fellow combatant,
“ I will deal honorably with you;
there, take my musket (throwing it to
wards him,) and defend your life!’’
He, quite incensed, seized the wea
pon with a mixture of exultation and
jrecipitato vengeance, and, rushing for
ward, demanded his arms, or he would
jlow him to hell!
; ‘ Blow away and be d—d!” says
the Yankee.
Provoked at such unparalleled inso
lence, in a fit of frenzy, he drew the
trigger. But, alas! the musket 1iad
not been charged!
'Flie glory of our bragadocia was so
sullied by this indignity, that he sold his
commission and left the place.
