Dying" Words of Napoleon and Josephine.
The dying hours lingered slowly away, during
which inarticulate murmurs were occasionally
heard from the lips of the illustrious sufferer.
"Twice I thought," says Montholon, "that I dis

Almost a Duel One of the Acre Family
. Still Lives. - . -
i On Thursday afternoon, says the Philadelphia
Xurlh .American, one of those ridiculous exhibi
tions, styled, satirically, a "hoMile meeting"
took place between two young men of this c ity,
one a boarder at Jones' Hotel, and the other a
sojourner at the United Stales. We suppress the
names, out of pity for the parties. The two
young gentlemen had a quarrel on Thursday
morning, in thecom-se of which, one of the" par
ties called the other ' a cow ard." Hereupon, the
gentleman to whom the epithet was applied, felt
called npon lo send a challenge to " pistols and
ctfil-e.' The challenge was accepted, and a meet-
ing was arranged, lo take place somewhere in the
vicinity of Girard College. But this was consid
ered dangerous gronnd, and the scene was chang
ed to a grove near Camden. Tin; seconds had re
solved to treat the affair as a joke, and the pis
tols were loaded accordingly, without any missile
that could create a call for the surgeon. ;; The bel
ligercuts were escorted to the ground before men
tioned, and the ordinary preparations made fr a
fight.' In the meantime, the 3 0ung gentleman
who had applied the epithet of coward, began to
think the aflair had gone just far enangh, and.
Acres-like, was iudisposcd to face the mu-vic."
He was seized with a shiver, and bis courage left
him at every pore. - JJnt the tremendous words,
-'one, "two," were spoken ; " three" was about
to be prunonnced, when our trembling friend
dropped the pistol, and took to his heels lie

The Accident ou the Ohio and Mississippi
Kail Itoad.
This accident, which occurred on Tnesdiy week,
fourteen miles from Cincinnati, was occasioned by
a switchfastening giving way. The Cincinnati
Enquirer says:
"The passenger cars were wrenched from the
baggage ; the latter remained attached to the lo
comotive, and was draged two hundred yaids
over the eross-ties. . Tlie first passenger car ran

; . "SAM" IN THE SENATE.
On Friday la t a little amusement was created
in the Senate upon a resolution pending" in that
body concerning a Marine Hospital at Wilmiugton.
Mr. Gra ves of Caswell, for pleasantry , we presume,
offered an anjetwiment providing that the benefits
of the appropriation iu the resolutions should on
ly be extended to native born or naturalized citi
zens of the United States. : , .
Jfr. Kayner remarked - that he was glad that
his friend from Caswell had given him" an oppor
tunity of stating what were tlie true principles of
the organization called ' Know Nothings, " as
far as he understood there. He knew nothing
about them, but as he understood it, that order
did not desire to deprive foreigners who.caaie to
this country of any of their social, civil or politi
cal rights.: ' They wcc in favor of permitting,
them, to enjoy tlie blessings of liberty unmolested;
but were not w illing that they should claim all.
tlie offices of the Country, and govern tlie native
born sons of the soil. They would take care of
them ; when they claimed the right to govern us
they would resist their claims. If his friend fron)
Caswell desired, he presumed he could join, them,
and then he might let faim (Mj.Jl.) know wheth
er he was right in his surmises, as to the princi
ples of the organization. Some more badinage
occurred, but all in a pleasant way. -
Mr. Graves then withdrew his amendment.
COURTESY OF THE BEAR.
It was stated in the Salem Rcgi.-rt.er that a liv
ing bear was left ou board the Favorite, wrecked
near Baker's Island, when the crew abandoned 1rt
The bear during the passage had exhibited those
unamiable traits of character which have become
proverbial; but his instinct soon discovered that
the pounding of the ship upon the rocks, which
cansed a lively commotion among the ship's com
pany, threatened danger, or "total destruction to
himself, although a passenger, and heretofore
presumptuous of that distinction. He immedi
ately began to coax and fondle the seamen, in the
hope of inducing them to suffer hi in to join tbcm
in any mode of extricating themselves from the
appalling danger. But they were forced to leave
him to his uncomfortable reflections on board the
wrecked ship. J .
When Capt. Morris, of the steamer It. B." For
bes, boarded the ship late in tho afternoon, Brum
was disposed to be very .civil, and in a wheedling
way laid his paw upon bis shoulder, as gently as
was consistent with a cordial welcome. His do
cility led to his being kindly treated, and ho was
brought to the city by Capt. Morris.

Dan. It is a Tamiliar name, and one that we shall
never cease to pay the homage of exalted respect.
The name of "Tunstall" never flashes o'er ur
memory without inspiring a tear bathed as it were
in the blood of a heart that delights to dwell ou
it.. ; -
-t This Steamer left our port Wednesday mornins
last for South Boston, and returned Wednesday
night. Gentlemen who accompanied her from

We understand that her owners contemplate the

felrnan is now in Richmond contracting for an
Engine of twefve-horse power. (The one now iij
use is not equivalent to two strong horses.)
If "therey were those 1 who laughed at "Whit.
