The Edmundson aud Hickman Din.
Guilty.

The Washington correspondent of the Gin
cinnati Enquirer. writing on the 1Ith, says:
A fracas which occurred yesterday between
Edmundson. of Virginia, and Hickman. of
Pennsylvania, is the town talk of to-day. II
appears that as Hickman was walking
through the grounds leading from the Capt.
toll TO Pennsylvania Avenue. after the ad-
journment of the Honse. he met Mr.. Keitt, of
South Carolina. Mr.. Bouligny. of Louisiana,
and Edmundson, in company, the latter of
whom aecosted him. saying, ''You made a
speech at Wizards Hotel the other night.
when Speaker Pennington was serenaded, in
which you insulted my State" Hickman re-
piled, II did make speech on that OCCASION"
when EdRnndson struck him, knocking bis
hat of. Vice-Presidenr Breckenridge, who
was near at hand. with Mr.. Keitt. interfered,
and prevented the matter from going further.
IL is said that Hickman was armed, aud the
Republicans express much dissatisfaction that
be did not shoot his ssssilant. He has been
So bitter in his deuunciaiion of the South,
aud so whitening in his ridicule of Southern
chivalry, that great things were expected OF
him if be ever came into conflict with any
Southern Representative. Ii is said. however,
that Hickman would have defended himself
il he had not been seized aud held by one Of
the gentlemen who intertered.

ings in the Senate. and been referred to
special committee. We have no doubt the

in their Judgment appears most proper and
expedient- 1t is the first time that we have
felt shat there is chance to secure resi-

have been serious obstacles in the way but
now there does not appear to be any which
cannot be readily removed. Let the resi-
dence be provided by all means.

we answci principally from the food But if the food is
not properly Gigested, there can be no healtny blood and
consequently no adequate nutrition of the body. The
bad blood will irritate the heart, clog up the lungs, stu
pity the brain, obstruct the liver, and Gauss arrangement

deficient amount of iron in the blood can be supplied, the
symptoms of disease viii consequently cease. Chemistry
proves that the only form in which iron can assimilate
further oxidation, when it becomes nearly inert in the

We were foreiblH struck with the rerolu:

We were forcibly struck with the revolu-
ton wrought in many departments of labor
by the introduction of machinery on a recent
visit to the Cordage Mandatory of Messrs.
BRIcnAa & HAYES. of this place. The last
rope making we had previously witnessed was
ut the rope-walk of a former citizen, where the
proprietor, with the aid of a boy to turn the
wheel, produced a few pounds a day. AT the
establishment ON the east side of the river the
crude unprepared fax goes into the machinery
: on the second story and in a remarkably brief
space of time energies on the ground floor in
huge coils of heavy. compactly twisted cordage,
nicely rolled in parcels averaging something
over I0Olbs. each, ready for shipment South,
where it is used for baieing cotton. A very
large amount is manufactured during the year;
and as a large sum is paid out to our farmers
for the hax-straw, and a considerable number
of hands employed, it is one of that class of
establishments which add much to the general
prosperity of the place where located, and of
which a town cannot have loo many. We
wish the enterprising proprietors rich returns
for their investment OF capital, and abundant
success in their laudabie efforts to buind up
manufactures in our midst.
