More Female Mischief.-We have from made by the ladies upon the rights and privileges of the lordly sex. They have at last capped the climax of their enor- mites and reached the " ultima thule" of their aggressions.. Two ladies,> the one French, and the other German, lately quarrelled at Strasbourg, about a young miniature painter. The latter is 8 bar- oness-the former, wife to General of Division. The German lady challenged her rival-female seconds were appoint ed-and the parties belligerent met, pistol in hand. The fair German insisted upon fighting muzzle to muzzle; but the more twenty five paces. The word was given !' and they did fire with great Don- chalence, but at the same moment, and both missed. Hereupon Germany became little excited, and insisted upon advan- cling and firing until one or the other should fall. France demurred-did not like the plan at all-was willing to try an- other shot at twenty-five paces, but was a. verse to approximation. The seconds inter- posed-declared that the laws of honor were satis6ed-took away the pistols, and put stay to further proceedings. Before leaving the ground, France, in very hand- some terms, disclaimed all personal hos- tility, saying 'she thought it due to her honor to takea shot with the German, but now that the affair was at an end, the lady was welcome to the miniature painter, whom she had forbidden her presence that very morning." Thus Germany got the painter, ,and so ended this tragedy, tIGt might haVe been. What will the, ladies do next xt?-N. y. Courier.
