               A DIFFICULTY SETTLED
   On yesterday, rumors were rife in town (Fayetteville) of an intended 
hostile meeting at Fair Bluff, between ATLAS J. DARGAN ESQ., of Anson County 
and T. L. HARGROVE, ESQ. of Granville County, both members of the Legislature 
now in session; and these rumors gained confirmation from the fact that the 
parties with their friends, it was ascertained, had repaired to the place of 
the meeting. Later in the day, however, a dispatch was received to the effect 
that the difficulty had been amicably settled, and this morning the parties 
returned to town.
   The difficulty grew out of a misunderstanding in a debate in the House of 
Commons recently, between these gentlemen, but we deem it unnecessary to make 
any further allusion to this matter at this time, settled as it has been by 
the intervention of mutual friends.
