Utll IB) UI A BMgW. f , 1 ' ' v Staunton, Va. June SO. It "la Im ..' possible at this time to gather any ' minute detail of the duel. iSlam bad been concealed nut many miles from ' the scene of combat for several days asu He was at the residence of John .ewis, son of lion. J. F. Las wis. The arrangement for a meeting ; was ma tured in Richmond at the time when lam was iu that vicinity and Beixne in West Virgiii ia. Some point midway between the two places was fixed aa the place. A change of secouda was made and the cartel as previously determined - namely. Colt's six-shooters, at eight paces, was agreed upon. - j . Both principals managed to , evade the vigilance of the authorities, and at : 6 o'clock this morning met in a strip of woods about two miles from Waynes boro, junction of the Shenandoah Val- ley aud Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad. The distance was marked off and at the - first tire neither of the men vas struck. Beirne, the challenger, demanded a sec- - - - ond shot, which was granted, and the bullet from his pistol imbedded itself in the upper part of E lam's right thigh. - Beirne was untouched. El am fell to - the ground, and Beirne raising his hat to his fallen opponent, was hurried into a carriage and driven rapidly away. Subsequently he took the Shenandoah Valley train at Crimora. E lam was also conveyed in a carriage to a house near by, his surgeon attending him. It was found that the extraction of the ball would be attended with danger ' aud a consultation among the surgeons was held. The fact that the ball failed to force itself through is taken as evi dence, in connection with the character of the weapon used and the distance, that it came in direct contact with one of the large hones. i No arrests have been made, nor does there seem to be any disposition to in stitute a legal investigation. Elamwas removed to the residence of John F. .Lewis and his wife sent for. LtATKR. When the combatants took '" their positions several gentlemen pres ent who were not immediately connect ed with the affair were asked to retire and they did so. The physician cave the words' "Gentlemen are you ready ? Fire one two three. Shots were to be exchanged.after the word fire, and - before the words three. At the word one both pistols were discharged in quick succession, but without effect. The same programme was then repeat ed, both reports being almost simultan eous, and just at the word "one," as ' Elam staggered under the effect of the - shot his second ran forward anf asslst . ed him to the cushions which had been laid on the ground. The-wounded man was under the impression that the ball had penetrated both legs and insisted that such was the case. When assured by the surgeon that it had not even gone through one leg and that the intense pain in the other was from sympathy, he expressed regret that he had not demanded an other shot. He was perfectly cool and collected and gave directions in a strong, composed voice. Beirne also acted with - deliberation and although pale seemed perfectly cooL He was taken away by . bis second after it was discovered that .. Elam could not again stand. t Elam was then placed in an ambu lance which started for the residence of Lieut-Gov Lewis, some 15 or 20 miles , distant. - ? It was doubtful what the 4 yeect of the ride would be, and in case the wounded man was not able to. stand it preparations have been mads for his - entertainment at the bouse of some one, ' - "of his prominent frienda alo- t tfca way. .' ' - - "The wound la vtintlv a very tcrioua "r -.. one After -,tfce ball struck-III a he ' V. .1 gave oaa or two steps .forward and from that it was thought that -the leg ' was not broken. The surgeonhowever, stated that the muscle would nave sus tained him for that length tf time. . . . In the meeting this morning between v Beirne and Elam, the provisions of the - original cartel were carried out until Elam was shot. The cartel proviied that after the first fire if neither was hurt the word should s- be given- for a . second round, and that then the parties should continue firing and advance if they chose. On the second round Elam received Beirne'a shot in his thigh and staggered or fell and exclaimed I am - hitr Beirne ceased firing and his sec onds declared that their principal was satisfied. Beirne then raised his hat, saluted his opponent and walked to aia . carriage, which he , entered, and was ' -' driven away.- Elam wss - helped to his -"- carriage and taken to Lin wood, the residence of Lt Gov Lewis in Rocking ham county, only a few miles from the scene of the rencontre. - ! . The ball in Elam'a thigh was probed for on the field hut was not found. The wound is not considered dangerous, ' however. Beirne's seconds were Frank Wright, of Petersburg, and Wm Em mett Chockley, of this city. . Etsm's friends were D Shsffrey Lewis and J D Snellings. The delay in meeting was caused by fear of arrest. Three at- - - tempts were ; made - to arrest Beirne. The parties were nearly 250 miles apart and had tolcome to the place of meet- ; ' ing in private conveyances, travelling . .mostly at night. Everybody s seems J leased that the duel did not terminate ataliy to either. . " r-l Aaotaer Challenge for Beirne. . CHARLOTTKaviLLg, VA. June 80.

As Expert Diseomrses oa CJraaiteEi Senator KellocKa Case la Comrt, ..f Washington, June 80. The Bill in vestigation was resumed to-day. John Me Arthur, architect from 1875. has had charge of the work upon the Philadel phia public building.. The original laas for the basement called for brick ining for : the piers. Changes' were made from the original plans and gran ite was used instead, of , brick. Hill, however, had nothing to do with the changes. On the cross examination the witness was asked his opinion as an ex pert whether it cost more to complete the Philadelphia building under the modified contract would have cost un der the fifteen per cent" contract. He could not state positively as to the rela tive cost without taking the plans and making computations of .the actual cost. The work under the modified con tract was inferior in quality to that performed under the fifteen per cent, contract. He did not know what the changes cost. He believed the changes improved the character of the building. -In reply to questions by the committee the witness stated that granite of same quality as that being used upon the Philadelphia building cauld have been obtained from otherquarries at the time the change was made from the fifteen per cent, contracts. As a matter of fact different kinds of granite were used in the building. - He would not have felt justified in ! paying exorbitant (prices for the gTaniteif other granite could have been obtained. In the criminal court to-day argument was heard upon the pleas in abatement entered in the case of ex-Senator Kel logg. Bliss for the government raised the objection that the substance of the pleas was proper matter for a motion ty quash and not for a plea in abate ment; The court seemed disposed to adopt this view. Still Wilson, counsel for ex-Senator Kellogg, insisted upon a ruling upon the pleas as submitted, re serving the right to make the same ground for a motion to quash. Argu ment was then beard upon pleas sepa rately. I Especial attention was given to the plea alleging improper selection of the grand jury that returned the indict ment against ex-Senator Kellogg. Bliss, Wilson. Shallabarger and Merrick par ticipated in the argument, at its con clusion Wilson asked for a decision but upon a statement of Assistant District Attorney Ferry, that the point was of much importance and would affect the other "Star Route" cases the court con tinued the cases until Saturday next.

From all Indications, t our Southern merchants wltthave the advantage; the coming season of lower freight rates than ever, as the Baltimore merchants have already begun to move for cheaper Southern freight rates, and intend to have them. Some of tbe circulars of the Baltimore merchants and manufac turers association, issued for Southern distribution, offering to all regular mer chants -who'desire to! visit Baltimore during the season rebate off SO per cent on the boat of the regular all rail limited ticket to Baltimorehave already been received in Charlotte.

Sully, general freight agent Petersburg and Weldon railroad. . - There was a general attendance of leading merchants at the meeting. Mr. Hurst; la welcoming the railway visit ors, 'said the merchants of 'Baltimore would present for the consideration of tbe manager of the several lines the disadvantages under which they were laboring owing to tbe discriminations against this city. The differential rate in favor of Baltimore as against New York, a distance ef 190 miles, is 6 cents per 100 pounds on first class goods, and 3 cents for the lower classes. Tbe dif ferential against Baltimore in favor of Richmond and Norfolk is 25 cents per 190 pounds on first-class, and propor tionately high on the lower classes. Baltimore asked xl the represented roads, of which she is by far the best customer, that she should be put upon a fair footing In the carrying rates. Colonel Robinson suggested that the secretary of the association, Mr. Bland, should be authorized to prepsr a de tailed statement bearing on the grisv" aace complained of, article : byArtlcle,' and the merchants committee could then lay the whole matter before the railroads committee. : - V The results of the meeting were con sidered as satisfactory to the merchants, who expect concessions from the rail roads aa the outoomA" i i -V Death ef a Dtatiagmlahee Old Maau .We have just received news of the death of CoL Dan.

" It would be no exaggeration to say that there were be tween three and four: thousand people on the ground a promptly at 10 o'clock the young ladies of the Female College were marched ? into the hail and upon the rostrum -with military precision, headed by the faculty. And guarded on either side by the chief marshal and his graceful assistants, while a capital band discoursed sweet, stirring music from their "metal sonorouA" The hall was beautifully and tastefully decorated' with Japanese designsAnd ornamented with OTer fifty pieces of art. The ros trum was occupied by the students, dig nitaries and distinguished visitors. The exercises were opened with prayer by Her. Dr. Sloan, after which the very in teresting programme was entered upon. The essays were beautifully written, and were read by different distinguish ed gentlemen chosen by ; the young ladies. The costumes of the graduating class were beautiful. The music, as it appears on the programme, was ren dered with magnetic touch on the piano and with sweet clarion toncA The Tocal and instrumental - departments are under the efficient supervision of Misses LeGaL Miller and Penick : the the latter is a fair daughter of North Carolina, and deserves especial mention for tbe successful i training of her pupils.

There was a great variety on shells, plaques and canvas, heads and landscapes in crayon ,&c if not so large at least as "beautiful and representing as much skill and artistic tastA - The Alumnaa essay by Miss Sallle Miller, of Alabama, was the attraction of the afternoon- It was a chaste and beautiful production And reflected great credit upon its author. Following this was the valedictory by: Miss Jennie Grier. which was pathetic and touch ing. The degrees were conferred upon tbe class by President Kennedy with an appropriate address. Thus ended the exerdseA They were unsurpassed, and were enjoyed by the vast audience. The reception at the Female College given in honor of the graduating classes was all that could be expected. There was an array of female beauty that is seldom seen, and the - touching inspira tion of the occasion seemed to sweep the chords of all hearts, young and old, which were blended in mutual joy and happinesA . :y :M.
