A Iriendly duel, pays the San Jnnquin Republican! took place on Munda) afternoon, at Moqi luinne Hill, between Mr. L forge, County Clerk of Call vi rus, und a Mr. Dudley. They chose the unique manner o( squirting water at each other, to cool their wounded honor. One combatant supplied himsell with the hose of the Union W ater Company, the other with lht of the Massachusetts Company. Marking the distance, which was about twenty feet, they commenced playing upon each other. The combatants with stood the cool application manfully lor about ten minutes, when Mr. D. thinking discretion the better part of valcr, caved in. An article in the Edinburg Review states ih&l the Mormons keep up a perpetual emigration fund, amounting last year to $34,000, to pay the outfit aud passage lo those coverts in foreign lands who may be unable lo pay iheir own expenses. The addi'ions lo the community have not been less than 3, COO a year from that source, which, with the in crease of population among themselves, and the results ol proselytism in the United States, bids fair to creature a powerful and dangerous element among us. At tho rate of increase realized dur ing (he last fiv? years, in five years more they will reach 60.000 inhabitants, the number required to emitlc them to admission to ihe Union, and to all the immunities in relerence to local laws and in stitutes of a sovereign Stale.

Various theories have been started relative to the origin ol intestinal worms, and yet the question is siill a vexed one among medic-d authorities. Of tine fact, however, all are informed, and in which all agree the latal nature of the influence they exert on children. At this season of the yeiyr, the attacks of worms are most frequent as well as most dargerous. We lake great pleasure in directing thd attention of parents to i he Vermifuge ol Dr. M'Lane. It is one ol the moat extraordinary medicines ever introduced to the public, and has never failed ol success when tried. (Cl7 Purchasers will be careful to ask for Dr. W Lane's Celebrated Vermifuge, and take none else. All other Vermifuges, in comparison, are worthii s. Dr. M'L'me's genuine Vermifuge, also his Cel brated Liver Pills, can now he had at all respectable Drug Stores in the United States and Canada. lw MAURI ED, In this County, on the 22d instant, by the Rev.

John Kirk, in the 46th year of her age. By the death of this hdy, the needy and the afflicted have lost a devoted friend. She was ever ready to perform acts of kindness to otlurs. She loved the gates of Zton, and conse quently she was very seldom absent from the sanctuary of God. During her last illness, which was protracted, 6he enjoyed much of the presence rf Christ, her Saviour, in whom she had long be lieved. She waited patiently until her change came, and seemed entirely resigned to the Divine will. We trust that she sleeps in Jesus. CHESTER, S. C By J. R. NICHOLSON.
