ROBERT CRITTENDEN, AMD The first great DueJ in Arkamwuk Arkansas has been the land of bloody deeds. In other countries, such rencontres, however frequent, are seldom fatal. But in Arkansas, . until a very recent period, both their number / and mortality have been alike astonishing.— I Scarcely a single combat of |b.e kind has oc- curred unattended witb. iinmSEBate death to O j^mfeo^offhe*n^f^iu&ts, and often to «n ehtef- fe .^ l . , !5 tyte* 1 * d^raced^ and! ^\««> MM ^^4^4^^ *^vMV4- nhn So •!—«- i_ '.1_5^ *. . °P en ln «« «PreS8Jon. and WIM^L *t. enderr \f^Ba^i^gfess* j ly owing to the Contemporaneous action of I two causes, first, the bellfgerent qualities of the people, so intensely destructive; and ; secondly, the peculiar nature of their quarrels, < resulting mostly from feelings of faction and i political partizanship. A special subsidiary, I tending powerfully to the same result, may be found in the despotic force of example, and the strong proclivity of the masses to imitate their superiore,and particularly their recogniz- ed leaders. Had the first duel ever waged in Arkansas been the work of mediocre or ig- I noble men, it might have excited emotions of disgust or contempt, and certainly never , would have become a precedent to be quoted I in speech and copied in conduct so extensive- ly as it was. Unfortunately, however, it was the deadly strife of two great rivals; individ- kiir<i«n.;Coriway> who is therein our party to supply the place of the latter Y .. &Wto thougbt of tha^top/t«sponded Rec tor» 'aod/I have; provided against it.

On the day designated, an immense con- course assembled to witness the trial flickering of a fire-fly to the strong,steady glo ry of a fixed star. Convay followed, and appeared strangely embarrassed by the- bold logic and brilliant declamation of hid opponent He was a pol- itician of fine abilities, yet very far from be- ing a match for the other. Besides Critten- den's allusions were so lofty, so perfectly courteoia, that the idea of insulting such a ri- val seemed shameful and revolting. Accor- dingly, ia his fir-t harrangue, Conway, al- though exceedingly caustic, did not venture to employ any positive rudeness. ! Crittenden replied in a manner still more impassioned, but yet abstained from language personally offensive to his antagonist He , however, remarked, in conclusion, and his eye* soft fire as he said it, 'that he trusted no gentleman would utter words, in the heat of debate, toward him r meh as could not be tol- erated by the code of honor.' Conway took fire like powder at a torch. He bounded t o his feet, and poured forth on th« hf rl of iiia fipjionant,» toCTont of-tha moat bitter and burning denunciation. Crittenden rejoined with but a single sen- tence-*-'Your language, Gen. Conway, ad- mits ot only one answer, and that, you may be sun, I will naake right speedily.' He then descended from the platform, and attended by a few-select friends, hurried away to his ho- tel. Bis second waited on Conway the same evening, and a hostile meeting was arranged for th* following morning. A v«8t throng collected at the time and placeJppointed, to witness the duel. Th e seconds were Col. Wharton Rector for Can* way, and Ben Desha for Crittenden. As the seconds in all such mortal combats are often more important, as respect the final result, a -.. W n weary murderous exhibition. Crittenden survived Conway only a few years, and died of a tor turing fever. His rival had the easiest death. From the fT«g of our Union. • THE YANKEE IN MEXICO. AX A.XECDOTB OF THE LATE WAR. BY THE OLD' *l\\. | Sometime before the war with Mexico broke out, a certain Yankee who rejoiced in. the name of Seth Strong, who hailed from the far down East, and who had been success- ively school master, singing master, hog- reeve, horse trader, log chopper, tin pedlar, and fine-man on a railroad, found himself in New Orleans, without resources. He was something of a military genius, having once been 'leftenanf in a volunteer rifle company, who wore green hunting shirts, and held >a semi-annual drill. While in the Crescent City he was always a spectator at the Sun- day parades in the place d' Armor. There- fore it was not surprising that,, finding, bis funds at the last extremity, he marched* up tlo a military rendezvous and presented himself Ijta. the .recruiting officer as-a candidate for ' honor of serving his-country, _ , *-- r —r—•-•\ f/fpp,oi money^ 'HoWfS 'ycsti'tfaie iojqnuch'asJ^yiij'k at me, or pint one of your shodtin' irons at fnis individ- ual, I'll drop my cigar right into tbisjbenre!, and blowyoi all to kingdom; pome, in half a second.' 11 The -Mexican officer turned as palea\s his. chocolate complexion wouldi permit hin>— struck his spurs into his mustang, andi-exfe off at full speed, followed by*his very valiant soldiery—all running for their lives. : .

Early in tbe morning it was discovered that no house, could be procured large enough to hold a tithe of the people already arrived, and accordingly the place of meeting was chang- ed from the City Hall to a beautiful grove of pines a in the vicinity, which before the sun had performed three hours' space of its long-sum- mer journey, was densely crowded by the ea- ger masses—the true rulers, whose sceptre lay- in the ballot box.

Wharton Rector was a professed duelist, -notorious alike for the number andjatality of his murderous conflicts.
