DUELS & DUELING


553 - H Jan. 16; ed:3/1 - The Baltimore PATRIOT of Jan. 11 says that an affair between Clingham and Yancey was settled without the duel which bad previously been agreed upon.


"From what we can learn, a more wanton and uncalled for attack was never made upon any man in the Halls of Congress, than was that of Mr. Yancey upon Mr. Clingman; and according to the Southern code of honor, Mr. Clingman could not do less than issue a challenge, or lose his rep- utation as an honorable man. We are glad however, that the more sensi - ble views, which Northerners entertain upon this subject, gained pre- dominance over their minds ere proceeding to hostilities." (2)


554 - H Jan. 18; ed: 3/1 - On Jan. 13, two congressmen, Clingham of North Carolina, and Yancey of Alabama, engaged in a pistol duel near Baltimore. Neither was harmed.


Another duel in which neither participant was hurt was held on Jan. 6 near Savannah, Ga., between Thomas Butler King, member elect to the next Congress, and James Spalding, the rival candidate.


"Wonder if either of these Honorables could hit the size of a man chalked on a barn door with a hair trigger, the first fire, at ten paces? The South 'is a great country, ' without Texas." (4)


555 - H Jan. 28; ed: 3/1 - Another duel at Washington is talked of - Dr. Miller, 2d Assistant P. M. General, having, says rumor, been challenged by Col. Fisher, editor, Loco, of the Cleveland REPUBLICAN. N. Y. EXPRESS. "There will be bloodshed when the above mentioned duel comes off, and no mistake! Your 'Colonel Fisher,' Mr. Express, is the veriest vagabond loafer ever kicked out of office and out of doors, and his 'Cleveland REPUBLICAN' could not levy 'Black mail' enough to give it half a dozen breaths. Fisher fight a duel! - His 'shots' are all in the neck!" (verbatim)

556 - H July 21; ed:2/1 - This bold and determined advocate of emanci - pation, Cassius M. Clay is doing excellent service to the cause of universal freedom. We are pleased to notice that in a late letter to the New York TRIBUNE, Clay formally pledges himself never again to offer or accept a challenge, or in any manner to give dueling his countenance by support.


"On this resolution Mr. C. shows himself the true hero, and we honor him for setting the example in a section of our country where a resort of the bloody code has so long and so universally been considered the most honorable mode of settling personal difficulties."

Normal Schools


559 - 11 July 3:2/2 - A meeting of the students of the Western Reserve Teachers seminary took place at Kirtland, O., on June 27, at which J. G. Coleman was presiding officer and J. C. Reeve, secretary. S. H. Bushnell, R. H. Osborn, and H. Benton presented resolutions expressing the feelings of the students upon the closing of this term. These resolutions pro- vided thanks to Principal Lord and to teachers Nichols and Dutton. They called also for the support of the community in behalf of the seminary, which has done so much to elevate the common schools of the vicinity. (5)


560 - H July 9:2/3 - In a letter to the editor, "Ubi" says: It was with pleasure that I perused the communications of "Franklin" published in your paper, as articles tending to attract attention to our common sehools. It would be surperfluous to go into an explanation of the importance of a good system of education in our district schools. Our common school sys- tem is far below what it should be, and one of the reasons is the apparent indifference to the qualifications of teachers, and a general absence of well qualified teachers. It appears to me that this evil would be les- sened and the character of our teachers increased, by the establishment and encouragement of institutions expressly for the education of common school teachers. We have one such institution in northern Ohio. I refer to the Western Reserve Teachers seminary at Kirtland, Lake, co. However, a single institution, unaided and alone, cannot be expected to work a revolution throughout the state. The people of the state must petition the legislature for the establishment of similar institutions to the one mentioned.


"It is observable that the interest is increasing upon the subject, and it is to be hoped another winter will give us laws elevating the charac- ter and extent of our system of education, which will in after years render unnecessary the passage of laws for the enlargement of our prisons and penitentiaries."

566 - H May 24; ed:2/1 - Last evening was quite a carnival time in our city. The brass band gave a concert, the first of the season, on the Public Square. Bond added the attraction of a very pretty exhibition of fireworks; the new German military company marched and counter-marched to the war-breathing sounds of fife and drum; and the circus afforded mirth-moving entertainment to thousands.


"The performance of the Band was exquisite, a trifle too much so it struck us to fill the open air auriculars of Mr. Public." (2)

570 - H July 22:3/1 - The Infant Sisters. . We were surprised and pleased by the performances of these little wonders of the world last evening, and we assure all who would while away an hour agreeably that they can do so by visiting the Apollo this and to-morrow evening. Mere children as are Emma and Eliza, they act, sing and dance with a winning grace that would do no discredit to "masters in the profession." The accomplished and arch little rogues are worth seeing, depend upon it.


The Scotch Piper makes the bagpipes talk "Ole Dan Tucker" with a dis- tinctness truly marvelous, and his "Scots! wha ha, wi' Wallace bled?" rouses reminiscences of the proudest days of Scottish chivalry. (verbatim) (2)

ENTERTAINMENT (Cont'd) marvellous feats of necromancy at the Apollo on Monday evening - if they can. It is said he can beat the very Old Nick himself, and no wonder, for he has three tons of tricky apparatus more than cloven-footed com- petitor. (verbatim) (1)


575 - H Sept. 27:3/1 - "Droll Doings." - Dr. Valentine kept the Empire in a constant roar last evening, and a jolly friend declared himself ab- solutely sick to-day, from having laughed so much and so hearty. The Doctor will convulse the risibles again this evening. (verbatim) (1)


576 - H Sept. 27; adv:2/4 - Great Attraction, Herr Alexander, the Great Magician, has arrived from the south, on his way to the eastern cities, and respectfully announces to the Ladies and Gentlemen of Cleveland, that he will give a series of performances in Natural Philosophy and Natural Magic, at the Apollo Hall, on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday Evening next. For particulars see small bills. (1)


577 - H Sept. 30; ed: 3/1 - We give up! Alexander the Great would have given up his empire for the black magic of Herr Alexander, the magician performing at Apollo hall. He converts raw coffee, rice, and beans into hot coffee at the swing of a wand - he spirits away watches and spirits them back again - he finds eggs in an empty bag, plucks bouquets from empty hats, and all with a smoothness and convincing manner worthy of "old Nick," the cloven-footed demon himself.


"Adrian, Blitz, and other Magicians who have astonished the 'Western natives, ' can't 'hold a candle' to Alexander in legerdemain, and his elec- trical chair not only electrified the descendant of Ham who occupied it, but the whole audience with the most convulsive peals of laughter." (6)


578 - H Oct. 1:3/1 - Herr Alexander deceived and delighted a large and fashionable assembly at the Apollo last evening. His last exhibition takes place this evening, and as the great Magician is in capital humor to-day, as was evidenced by his raising of Old Nick in our sanctum, some- thing extra, even for him may be expected.

As the sort of grape bath is said to be healthful, many invalids are delegated for the task of grape trampling.


"What an extra rich flavor it must import to a glass of sparkling wine to know that the pure juice you quaff was once used to cleanse and strengthen the diseased skin and weak joints of some poor invalid - or that the bever. age you drink to tan your stomach, once tanned the hide of a dirty son of Burgundy, who may be had prepared himself to impart a high flavor to the wine by sleeping in the stall of a stable!"
