Death of Yancey.
| From the Democratic Statesman I

; From the Demecraric Statesman
The writer was in Richmond when
the incident recited occurred. The
affair was talked about at the time,
but no serious result of the rencounrer
was anticipated. According to this
published account, it was toward The
cii.1 of the first Confederate Congress
'that lancey broke from the counsels
and intiuence of Mr. Davis, aud
became, with Henry ). Foote, leader
of the opposition. Mr.. Ben. Hill.
Senator from Georgia, had likewise
changed his front, aud vas remarkable
for the earnestnesS, personal interest
and persistency with which he sus-
tanned the measures Of an administra-
tion to which his ailesieuce had been
given but late in tb" day. Mr.. Iancey,
il will be remembered, had retur ned
from an unsuccessful mission To
Europe, and was representing Ala
bama in the Confederate Senate.
! The question of navy was under
discussion iu u secret session. The
debate ranged beyond parliamentary
limits, and Mcssrs. lancey and Hill
became animated over the abstract
doctrines Of State Rights and the
authority Of slavery. High words
passed, and finally the lie was given
by Mr.. Hill. Mr.. Yancey leapcd for
ward, and as be a;lnc,, !; bEuv al his
adversary, was caught in the arms
Of the latter and violently thrown
back over dcsk. Mr.. Hill IS man
Of wonderful muscular development.
Mr.. lancey was never very heavy,
though little and active. In the fail
his spine was seriously injured, and
when the bystandcrs rushed upon the
two and dragged one from the other,
the Sr' at Souiherncr Law unconcious
upon the floor, with IA lilile trickie of
blood oozing from bis lips. He was
carried to his hotel vote of secrecy
was passed, aud the recCunttr hu>Erd

that body of men knew OF the circun-
Starcc Tor SIX months after. Mean
while the victim did not recover.
!Ie dropped from day to day. He
became liStIess. hopeless and vacant.
He was transferred TO his own home,
where commissions ceased few weeks
before his death, which was tranquil
and calm. lie died without hope
Of the SUCCESS of the Southern Republic
he bad a>pired to found and govern,
aud for which he had labored day
and night for TWENTY-FIVE years.
This appears TO be a very probable
story, but we for one do not believe
word of it, and will not unless Ben
Hill or some other well known Con.
federate Congressman endorses it
as fact

Dame Natures Lemonade.

The sour well near Luling, Texas.
the property "f Dir. BurdrIt. has
BECOME somewhat famous. The water
is Pleasantly aciduIa,ed. not unlike

dcrful curative propcn,iies. The
well was dug some years ago bv an
old settler of the county named Hiram
Moore Its mineral qualities were
soon discovered, and the neighbours
for several miles around were in rh,.
habit OF visiting il. camping cut while
availing themselves of the effects of
the water. Moore didn't like To be
disturbed, So he filled up tie well.
In this condition it remained for some
time, and ght never have been re-
opened had it not been fer DR. Bur-
det', by whom it was re"pcned. Its
water is now drank bv thousand,
throughout the State. 1t Is sold in
Galveston, Houston, San Antonio aud
Austin. The doctor says that this
water is anri-billiouS, cathariic, diurc-
tie, diaphoretic, Alternative, and tonic
He states further that it cures scrcfula

have heard many invalidS say it gave
them better appetite than they had
for wears. There is bath-hou,c
attached to the well. Last summer
| saw an old gentleman who took of
his hat and showed me bis head.
On doing SD he stated TO me that
when he commenced bathing in the
water his head of hair was as white
as cotton, and now | could sca for

Texas. Any one disposed To doubt
the effect of the water on his hair can
correspond with him at Houston, or
visit him at hi, home. The well is
about thirty feet deep. and is curative

dangerous dogs; can rarely be trusted;
and when a citizen has fancy for
such dog we think be should be
allowed To indulge it, provided he

There is quite a healthy public SEN
tiuent growing in favor of doing
away with the reading of the Bible
in public schools. The Rev. DR..
Butler, at the recent Church Congress
in Philadelphia, said he was strongly
in favor of abandoning the irrevr-
rent farce and desecration of the per-
functionary reading of the Bible in
our public schools" He said truly
that thousands Of our citizens feel
that this would he the right thing to
do, and yet are unwilling to yield the
point bccaus, it would seem like a
surrender To Romisb dictalion" He
likened these citizens to Falstatf
They do not choose to be virtuous
on compulSlou." There are few peo-
pie who attach any great importance
TO school Bib e reading 1t is never
anvlhing more than perfunctoriIy per-
formed, and often the practice is either
tarciai or obviously irrevcrent. The
Chicago Board Of Education have
abolished the reading of the Bible in
the schools, and are about TO revise
the singing books in Use in order to
eXpurgate them of all verse in which
religion is referred to. In Pbiladel-
phia the Hewbrew ministers have
addressed note to the School Board
ohjectiDg to the use of Francie Way
lands Elements of Moral Science
among the school text books. This
work expresses Professor Wayland's
peculiar religious views inasmuch as
it recognizes the Trinity and incul-
Gates a belief 10 Jesus ChIist as one
of The Godhead. There are manv
Protestant denominations who object
to this work on these grounds. Thus
we see that to have religion at all,
somebody's toes must be stepped on,
and it is more in accordance With the
spirit Of our institutions to make
public education purely secular.
When this is done our public school
system will he unassailable.

WAsHINGToN, March Tic most
signal defeat which was ever witnessed
IN Congress occurred to-day in tho

speech charging the Democratic party
with Withholding evidence iu tho

party. Blaine was very insoIcnt.
Lamar rose, and in speech of
half an hour completely demolished
Blaine. Such scene was never
before Witnessed. | hrve never seen
such utter defeat, said w. ID. Kelley.
1t was simply awful, is the opinion
OF Foster. of Ohio. Old Ben. Wado
was on the floor and said, Lamar
Is a giant" "TLe ablcst speech

Of lloar. The speech was the cuI-
