portant meeting desired.

four states Can unite. that the con.
vention will lind that IL will have all

Among the questions which have
been suggested for discussion are the
placing OF lectures In the east, adver.
tising the Pacific northwest; opening
OF rivers and harbors; the establish
ment of strong northwest press
bureau; securing by united action
national conventions for all the cities
of the northwest. which are large
enough to entertain them; the placing
of an immigration agent Ia Europe;
securing of an appropriation by the
legislature Of each of the four states
for the advertising OF that state; the
cooperation Of the United States
government for forest protection, in
cluding the patrol Of forests by United
States cavalry troops, and the urging
Of leading cities to hold annual expo

paign of 1s4o issued the prospectus for the first agricultural journal ever pro- posed in Alabama, It was to be cail- ed The Alabama Planter. In the pros pectus he said: Tt has been remark ed that the prosperity of a country is to be measured by the number and cir culation of It's agricultural publica- tions. Is 1t not true that ignorance and obstinate prejudices have been dispelled only by the light of science, and that plenty and prosperity have thus alone been made to succeed psnury and want? Why? The interests of farmers demand such publications; {; the interest of merchants demand their circulation. When agriculture flour
 ishes commerce revives." For some reason not given. the idea of an ag- ricultural journal was not carried out, but the proposition disclosed that his mind still dwelt on the joys of an ag- riculturaI life.
 Mir. Yanceys first entrance into pub lie life as a legislator was as men1- Der Of the Alabama House of Repre- sentatives from Coosa County, receiv- ing twice the combined vote cast for the opposition candidates. He entered regularly into the practice of law at Wetumpka in 1s42 In partnership with Sampson W. Harris. A large practice soon came to the firm and Mir. Yancey soon disposed of his newspaper inter- est and in his valedictory said: 'In the eight years of my connection with newspapers I may have unintentIona1ly injured the feeling of many and have borne too hArshly upon the character of others If so I regret it. Feeling of resentment towards ali those with whom the duties of my station may have brought me in conflict, amidst the scenes of great political excitement have been effaced from my own mind and I leave it with unkind feelings toward no one" He was not a candidate for the House In 1s42, as he felt that he had to devote his time to repairing his fortune through attention to his law practice. In 1s4S, however, in defer ence to numerous petitions. he became candidate for the State Senate from Coosa and Autauga Counties and was elected after & warm canvass. HIS services there extended his influence and deepened his hold upon public con- fidence. There were many interesting questions up for discussion. notably basis of representation and bank re- forms, and in all of them he bore con- spicuous part. He was elected to Con- gress in is44. reslgning from the Sem ate, and again fin 1S46. When he made his entry into Congress. he was barely

It was especially distaste- full to Southern Democrats and after consultation, they selected Mir. Yancey to reply to him. He had never bean heard in Congress, but no one doubtea his ability to cope with any member af- ter that speech. The WasAtnrton Globe said 1t was distinguished by sec we're sarcasm and fervid eioduences s The Richmond Enquirer said of Mir Yancey. "If he bs not paralysed by the admiration he has already excited nor ms head turned by the incense Of praise, he is destined to attain a very high distinction in tho councils of the nation" This speech was delivered January T. lSa5. and tho same evening nc received note from Mir, Ciingfuan demanding an explanation as to certain portions Of It. To this Mir. Yanosy rs4 piled; "of the language 1 did use or of my motives, have no explanation to make.' This result was challefige to fight a duel. which Mfr. Yanesy promptly accepted. They met in Mary land and after one intellectual fire, there was further interoession of friends. ana an amicAble arrangement reached. The next day a motion was made by Preston King of New York, which looked to the expulsion of Messrs. ClinEman and Yancey, but 1t was defeated by a large majority. It is we'll to note here that Mir. Yancey had expressed an Intentlon of firing into the air, but from this his friends dlssuaded him, but he deoiAfed that he would not aim at vital part. This duel created more or less Of q sensation In Alabama, and when a bilI was introduced in the Legislature ana passed by both houses to relieve him of the disabilities of the dueiing law. it was vetoed by Governor Martin. Party lines, however, werq not adhered to, ana 1t passed over the veto by mora than two-thirds majority of both houses. He was reelected to Congress without of,- position.

Tn the spring of 1884, Genl Wilson made an unexpected raid into Flerence Ala, with large cavalry force. His coming produced intense excitement among the unprotected women and, chiI- dren, who never knew what would bC left them by Yankee raiders.
 Fortunately the General in command was a West Point class-mate of my brother, the late Col. John R. Burt we'll, and friend of mine. He tried his utmost to control his men but regrad- less of orders, they took from the citi- zens what they wanted and every horse that had been left by the frequent raid. ing parties through this section. They took my mothers family horse as soor as they reached Florence. Mir.

When l reached the gate asked the sentinel who was the commanding officer. When he replied General J. H. Wilson" my courage almost failed me as I did not care to see the General as Yankee officer. I sent my request to him to please have the Burtwell horse return- ed that he was too old for military service, but was very useful to us. A short while after reaching home. General Wilson and his aid. Colonel Andrews (who was aiso a West Poin- ter and special friend of my brother'sl called to see us and offered to do any thing In their power for us.

He gave me permit to go to Louisville, Ky, (and also to Mrs. Sloss and Mrs. Virginia Irwine) to look after business matters of my fathers, who died in 1861, the first year of the war. General Wilson sent us to Passport in his ambulance, where we took the transport, commando ed by another classmate of my broth- CTS who paid us every courtesy.
