' The Pryor nnd Potter correspondence. ha come to hand,' and couflrms the first report. , Try oi requested Potter to nam pUo out- Bide the District "where there might be further correspondence." This Was to avoid the legal penalties of the District. Potter replied that-"the Oanstttutioa Of Wltforsin ( allotrtd him no escape from the consequences or such a correspondence as Pryor seemed to contemplate, wherever It might be con- ducted,", and concluded, "I therefore Inform you that inch further correspondence as you may wish. to make, may be delivered to my friend Colonel F. W. Lander." This promptness on the part of Potter, and his appointing a friend to conduct the cor respondence, a known fighting man, too, aeemed Incredible to Pryor. He seemed an unbelieving Thomas, unwilling to credit the evidence of hit senses. This answer was de livered to Pryor't second at midnight of the 11th.: At half-post one P.M., of the 12th, Pryor wrote to Mr. Potter to inquire if lie really would accept a challenge. This re markable phase of an honorable correspond ence we quote: .' '. '.. ' .; VIRGINIA, April 12, 1860. Sir In order to be assured that I do not mfsapprehend the precise import of your note ny .ur. i.a . Lander. 1 be? to inauire if vou will accept a challenge from me In the District of Columbia.- l cave the honor to be, verv respectfully, ROGER A. PRYOR. L'sually an affair of honor begins with statement of the grievance, and a request for an apology, or "satisfaction;" but this seems to be an improvement on the code; and such an Inquiry at that stage of the affair, when air. rotter naa committed bis honor to friend whom he bad designated, looks as the matter bad taken a complexion not an ticipated by Pryor, and which he was re luctant to be convinced of. Potter replied that if there was any duubt ubout it, after what had occurred, he would answer the inquiry when the answer should reach him. Then Pryor demanded "the satis faction usual among gentlemen for the per sonal affront you offered' me in debate." Potter accepted, naming weapons, Bowie knives; place, In the District, private room or open air, time, within twelve hours; distance, four feet at commencement; two seconds each, armed with one navy revolver each; fight to begin at the word three; the giving of the word to be decided in the nsnal way. To this provisiou for ample satisfaction, Pryor's second replied: "Not recognizing this vulvar, barbarous and inhuman mode of settling difficulties, as cither usual among gentlemen or consistent with the notions of civilized society, I must, without referring your communication to my principal, or even seeing him, , emphati cally refuse to allow him to engage in it." i was supposed that the duel was a chal lenge to mortal combat, Now it seems that the mortal part is only in a Pickwickian tense, and that any mode which really means killing is "barbarous and inhuman, and in consistent with the notions of civilized so ciety." Civilized society must be extremely nice in its notions. Are there any degrees barbarity and inhumanity beyond calling man out und shooting him down ? This what Pryor intended if he meant work when he sent the challenge. , To meet a man with weapons which give nu equal chance for death seems to be inhu man and barbarous to the Pryor sensibilities; but to call out a man who is unused to pistols, nnd shoot him down, with little risk to the challenger, is a tender and human "mode nettling difficulties, eoiuistcnt with the no tions of civilized society." .The Potter mode is "vulgar," tool Since when has gunpowder become more genteel than sharp steel? Thero was a chivalry who went into single coin bat with the Inncc, Kword, dagger and battle-ax. They regarded , gunpowder as the ' weapon of oowards, enabling them to kill without exposing themselves. Xow, things are changed. The Bowie-knife, which com bines some of the qualities of all these knightly weapons, is vulgar. ' The code gives the challenged party the choice of weapons, and it is a queer phase it that a man, who has received an insult to his honor, that nothing but a deadly comljat can wipe out, should object to the weapons chosen, because they are deadly. ,Mr. Potter's second replied that liis principal regarded the whole system of dueling us a barbarous and inhuman mode of settling difficulties among gentlemen, but that had chosen the weapons which would make the terms equal. The second also disclaimed any of the scruples against dueling which animated his friend Potter, and tendered himself to the service of Mr. Pryor, without restrictions. ' This was a very superfluous proceeding the part of Colonel Lander. , There is no code that stops at weapons on account of their deadly nature. Mr. Potter had offered the mostcomplete satisfaction that could be asked, on equal terms. Mr. Pryor and his second declined this generous offer, making some' complaint Mr. Poture refusal to go out of the District, and of hie mode of fighting, and misconstru ing an expression in Col. Lander's note a declaration that Potter would not be pre pared to defend himself if attacked, they that no opening was left to them pursue the matter any further. This Lander. corrected in another note, stating that Mr. Potter would at all times defend honor, and here the matter rested lame and impotent conclusion for such a fiery commencement.

The orator, invited guests, clergy, directo ry, and the Lady Directresses ot the Clay Statue Association, were conducted to the large platform surrounding the statue, where cum had been prepared for them, the military forming in close column, and as near the statue as they could get. On the platform was Hon. James B. Clay, of Kentucky; Hon. James rJrooKs, ot new i orK, and Rx-f rest dent Tvlcr.

To the Editors of the Press. Will you please allow me a short space in your columns to reply to an arncie 1a yester day morning's Commercial, under the above heading which article attempts to throw the responsibility of the death of three chil dren upon the Typographical Union, by Its Having prosennett tne lamer or tnose cmi dren? The truth in the easels this: In 1853, when the Union asked thirty-five cents per thousand for composition, this man struck witn us, ana neia out tor some time, a rawing on the Union to support himself and family, but finally went to work In the OattUt office, for thirty-tnrce cents, (tnercny loneiung ine respect of those who had previously contrib uted 10 nis support, j wnere ne remoineu he become so obnoxious that he was dis charged by tho foreman. Since then he has been employed In various book offices in the city, and some twelve or fifteen months since made application, at the Commercial office, fan office which rineanotrecocrnize the Union, and where its "proscription" couiu novreacu him.iboth to Mr. Potter and the foreman, and aitnongn tne nanas in ine omce were wmiug to give him subbing, the foreman positively refused, on the ground that he ill-treated his fnmilv. Ha baa been emuloved most of the time, however, and quit work in another office to take a situation on the Commercial dnrini? the late difficulty, thus showing him. self ever ready to dishonor himself, and as sist capital in oppressing laoor. That the death of those children Is a sad bereavement to the mother, who is an affec tionate and kind woman, there can be no doubt; but that It very much grieves a man who would make the remark that "he was glad when one of his children died, as It af forded him a freer indulgence of nil licen tiousness, and saved the exnense of rearing them," is very questionable. And I ask this man, if he did not make this remark, only clothed in more maeceni ana vulgar ian guage, some year since, and that, too, while one of his children was lying on the sick bed? The other portion of the article, referring to the circular issued by the Union, is equally false, as the circular does not state that the present difficulty is one of wages. It is not necessary to sneak of the motive which prompted the sympathetic article in the Com mercial, suffice it to say, that it is for the pur pose of creating sympathy in its present dif- JOHN President Typographical Union. The Raoino Fib.es or Vesuvius. A lato letter from Naples says of Vesuvius: The fires of Vesuvius glow with as Intense an energy as ever, although the mountain is not at present in violent eruption. The new fis surcB at the base of the old cone are filled with a molten mass, which boils and rolls out in a manner to strike terror into those who approach near enough to fully take in the awful grandeur of the scene. At night, the mountain appears to be gashed with fiery scars, and by day it is seen to be mantled with horrid black fords of lava, which stretch for miles down its sides. The adventurous travelers who now seek to make the ascent. are nearly discouraged by the formidable ob structions which these musses of lava present. Notwithstanding this, the mountain is every day covered with parties eager to reach the Intekestino Connubml I.iroRMATION. In civilized countries, about one person in sixty is married every year. Therefore, let no one despair; for every individual holds, in the marriage lottery, one sixtieth of a chance.
