day, between Mr.. Turney and MIR. Bell.
members from Tennessee, while engaged
in debate in committee of the whole, on
the Indian Appropriation bill. IL appears
Mr.. Turney had made a wan,on, cont.
nued personal attack on the course Of MIR.
Bell, and that the later rose and COM
menced a severe rejoinder, asserting that
Mr.. Tnrney was the mere tool OF others
in making this attack. Mr.. 7. sitting i'm
mediately in front of Mr.. b. rose from
his seat. and. looking Mr.. d. in the face,
said " II is faise:" whereupon Mr.. b.
struck Mr.. L. and blows passed between
them both. This necessarily produced
much confusion. The combaianis were
parted. aud The Speaker resuming The
Chair, brough, the house TO order; and
i, was resolved. by large majority. that
both the offending members should apo
logize to the House for their disordetly
conduct, which was done accordingly,
but no apology was made to each other.
Mr.. Bell then concluded his speech.
