AN INTEHKSTINO CHAPTER
OF UMPUBtlSHED HISTORY.
The Personal IJlIHculty Between
William!.. Yancey and Ben. II.
Hill in the Confederate Senate
Chamber.
Among flio many event* pf personal
interest that transpired in the South (lur
ing the lato war, but few are of moro dra
matic character or aroused a deeper in-
C8t among our pooplo than the unfortu
nate personal difficulty which took place
in the Confederate Stales Senate at Rich
mond, during ita secret session, between
Mr, Wm. Tj. Ysncey, of Alabama, and Mr.
Ben. H. Hill, of Georgia. Several dif
ferent and conflicting versions of this af
fair have been given through the South
ern press, but none has yet been pub
lished that accords with a statement we
recently derived from a gentleman who
was at the time a Senator, and an eye
witness to ail that transpired on the occa-
U °Tho difficulty had ita origin in tho
boated political contests so common in
this country prior to tho breaking out of
the war. It was when Yancey, with his
dazzling eloquence,was “firing tho South
ern heart,” that a barbecue, attended by
thousands, was given in one ol the South
ern counties of Georgia. It was here
that Hill and Y’anec v met - the nno the
bold and eloquent defender of tho Un
ion, and the otlior the boasted champion
of secession; and during the debate
whieh ensued words woro uttered w hich
caused an estrangement whieh was never
afterwards reconciled.
Tho two men mot again in the Confed
erate Senate, both doubtless smarting
under tho recollection of oust conflicts,
and entertaining no kimlly feeling for
each other. It was when the cause of the
South was drooping, and every patriot
hetxtW*> heavy with despondency nnd
gloom, that Mr. Yancey, rising in his
place in the Senate, declared that the win
oould no longer be carried on with any
hopo of siiceoss, unless many of the
Constitutional restraints and embarrass
menta were thrown aside ; and boldly ad
vocated a radical change in tho Govern
ment to meet the demands of the pnblie
and tho exigencies of tho hour.
Upon tho conclusion of Mr. Yancey s
remarks, Mr. Hill promptly arose to vu-
ply. Tho scone was one of most intense
excitement. Ho depreoatod the opinion
advocated by Mr. Yancey, nnd proceeded
with great severity, to review his past
political oarecr, running Iwiok to tho bo;

Ilia mwi h—a bayonet on no tun- four or lire inches
below the Hiuall of the back — l inmme# Western Sun.
OL course, the nearer you get to the
Republican platform the bayonet comes
in your mind, and you instinctively want
to use it as n great moral agent. That Is
what the Democrats complain of in the
policy of sham Republicanism.—Ctncin
noli Ku ,Hirer.
Threats of “ bayonet punctures,
four or live inches below the small of
tlie book.” or all over the body ten
inches long, will never drive tne old
Democratic party into tho “net” sot
by Vullandigbum, for the benefit of
the Radical party. The bayonet lias
already been used aguinst the will of
file people in forcing mousnres which
arc u disgrace to the American citi
zens, and which we are sorry to secs
some Democrats willing to accept as
their platform to walk into power on.
For our part, wo hud rather be honest

f our life, than to accept a fraud
oven it were thought by so doing it
would place us in the majority, l’ow-
er gained by such means would be of
short duration.—Rock-port, (Ind.),

Mr. Stephens in Uis orate of *>ii
morning furnishes his readers With an
article on “The Validity of the Fmr-
teenth and Fifteenth Amendments. ” Be
says :
“Whether the Fourteenth and Fif
teenth Amendments be valid parta of the
Constitution or not, is not the question
we now (rroposc to disease. That they
were carried by ‘/mini, pajUty and vio
lence,’ oil admit - " -
“Now, whether validity can, in this
wav, be imparted to any private, judicial
or legislative act, might very well seem
to he a superfluous question, Bnt what
we have to say, at this time, is, that no
people, who ore true to their rights, will
ever, votusdartty, give their sanation, in
advance, to the validity of suoh outrages
mmii the rights of the people and of the
Htntaa as tboee by which these amend
ment* were openly and avowedly com
mittod,”
In that caae, we earnestly ask Mr. Ste
phens to define tho course to be panned
wherein tho people of the South can suc
cessfully or validly resist the force that
lias imposed these amendments npon
them by “fraud, perfidy and violence.”
If not by present submission, and final
repudiation at the ballot box, what else
cut ho mean more than Revolution ?
Of that we have had enough; of the bal
lot box, too little. Let us be wise.—Dr.
lianTs Organ, 1th July.
The difference between Dr. Bard
mid the true Democracy is, that wo
arc for the repudiation of nil sanction
of these iniquitous measures—not by
revolution, but by popular condem
nation at the ballot-box, while he and
those of his ilk are fur accepting them
as -finalities” and endorsing them as
valid parts of the Constitution, never
hereafter to be questioned at the bal
lot-box. or elsewhere; and this, too,
even before the question of their va
lidity lias been properly decided.

Hon. Jeremiah 8. Black waa opposed to
the platform recently adopted by the
Democratic Convention at Harriabnrg, or
rather to the ninth resolution oonoeruiug
the amendments to the Constitution.—
The Fittahnrg Dost contradicts the story
in very explicit terms, and adds: “He
wm in Harrisburg daring the sitting of
tbs Convention, being engaged in the
Supreme Court, then in session, and gave
his opinion in writing, expressing in the
boldest terms the blinding obligation of
the several amendments to the Constita-
tion.”
“The binding obligation,” yes, to
this extent, that nobody proposes to
take arms to brush them from tlie
leaves of the Constitution, and there
fore everybody proposes to acquiesce
in, and submit to, them while they
stand on tho pages of the Constitu
tion. Bnt is not this a very different |

Plutarch iff the father of the noble
truth enshrined in these plain words :
“ In travelling through the world yon
may find cities withant walla, without a
mint, without a theatre sad s gytnnaaiqm,
bat yon shall never find one without an

2. The other proposition is that Chris
tianity is the only religion which con meet
the minute and manifold exigencies of
human nature. This opeDS up a broader
field of thought than we are able to tra
verse to-day; we propose only to skirt the
bolder headlands of the subject. Oar
thoughts on this branoh will be general
ized under four heads;
A. Christianity is the only system of
truth whioh reveals a personal God,
clothed with all the attributes of a perfect
being.
B. The pardon of sin is another great
and argent want of man to whioh the
gospel of. Jesus Christ alone ia adapted.
A half-witted man used to go about the
street* of London singing the couplet,
"I am Jnnt nothing *t All,
HutJeunuM Cbriut it all to All.”
These simple lines contain two of the
grandest tenths of religion, and God
mode them instrumental in the conver
sion of thishalf-erackod character, who is
now a shining light in the church of Mr.
Hpnrgeou.
C. Christianity is preeminently a reli
gion of facta, and on thid account it is
peculiarly ailapteJ to all classes and con
ditions of mankind. “The Dairy

Wkst Poimt, Ga., July 9, lfiTl.
The Commencement exercise* of West
Point Female College—A. P. Mooty,
President—are in progress. The com
mencement sermon was preached to-day
in the Methodist Ohuroli, the most com
mod ions tdifloe in in the plaee.
An immense multitude, was present—
Alabama was largely represented. The
people were there from all the surround
ing country and every denomination,
participated in the services.
The crowd exceeds that attending all
other commencements at this place.
I give you the following hasty synop
sis of Dr. Wills' eermon, which was truly
one of the greatest effort* of this re
nowned and pious divine.
The snbjeot was the aiLrpUsliua of Chris-
tiauily to the prcseM couditinH of human
nature.
This profound and important topic was
discussed under two loading divisions
I. Man is a religious being by creation.
The argument oh which this oeutrul
proposition rests is threefold in its char
acter.
First, The repeated and luminous les
sons of soripture. Man waa made ia tlie
image of God, and the reference here is
obviously to a moral and intellectual re
semblance and not to a physical simili
tude.
Second, A rigid analysis of . hnmau
nature oonduots us to the same conclu
sion. Tho moral faculties of man lie at
the foundation of the most sober and
brilliant phenomenon of his history. He
hss s dot, acinus which when left to its le
gitimate operations supports the authori
ty of the divine law, thunders forth ita
oondesonation against all tan and antici
pates the fearful retributions of etoruity.
The deep and overflowing fountain of
the affections sends forth its arystal cur
agonies to
tall ii* of the Koran and thn Shaater*.
Then the philosopher* of the Polch, the
Academy and the Lyceum, could afford
us no consolation. Then we mast have a
diviner Bavinnr than Socrates; under
suoh mighty trial* we must have Jesus a*
a slrcngthencr, comforter and Saviour,
Jcniis to light np the portals of tho tomb
with Hi* cheering presence, to perfume
his cold grave with the fragrance of Hi*
merits, and to admit onr departing spir
its into the glories of the Paradise of
God.
