Fatal Affray.

--At Paducah, Ky., a few days since, Capt, Pigg and Mr. Pryor got into a quarrel; both drew revolvers and fired; Pigg was killed on the spot, and Pryor received a fatal wound. A son of Pigg, twelve years old, hearing of his father's death, rushed into the hotel where Pryor had been carried, revolver in hand, and was just pulling trigger on Pryor when his hand was arrested by a bystander.
