JL strange Statement How William It. Yan
cey Met his Death.
As you enter the cemetery at Montgomery and
turn to the right you will perceive a colonnade - of
maple trees leading off to a quiet gUn. Bjyood is a
brassy knoll, and leaving this to the left von will ap
proach a pleasent level of greensward. Hare you wid
je tempted to pause before a plain slab of white mar
ie of the most humble description. It bears a sin
Is inscription : " William L. Yancey . His last
yords were : " Put me out of sight," and it is said
that he was constantly muttering, towards , his latter
end, those Hdcs of Pope:
V " Let me live unseen, unknown,
And unlamented let me die
-t Nor mound, nor monument, nor stone,
I . Tell where I lie."
f His death-was quiet and painless, after a year of
aoute physical and mental uff ring. Hj was a
strict churchman ; araan of qaiet manners ; a hand
some declaimer, and a fair scnolar. ; Ha was never
wealthy, and it is understood that he left his family '
without an Independence S .
i The time has come when the circumstancy" of his
jW. Mnesa and death, with the occasion fnich snd-
dAniw r.nnvnlseJ & frame from nerfect health into a
wrrck,and mere shadow, may be mentioned as a
historical fact. William L. Yancey came to his end
!by violence. It was toward the clos9 of the second
session of the first C jafederate Cmgrw, that he
I broke from the counsels aod influence of Mr. Davis ;
land became with Mr. Heory S. Foote, 'a leader of
the opposition. Mr. Ban. Hill, a senator from Geor
gia, had likewise changed nis front, and was remark
. able for the earnestness, personal Interest and per-
Ui3tency: with which he sustained the measures of an
a administration to which his Allegiance had been giv
en out late in tbe day. Mr. Yancey, U will be re-
membered. had returned from an unsuccessful miu-
!sion to Esrope, and was representing Alabama in the
Ton federate Senate. '
I The question of a navy was under discussion ia
.'-secret session. The debate ranged beyond the par
liamentary limits, and Messrs. Yancey aad Hill be
came animated over the abstract doctrines of state
rights aDd the divinity of slavery. Hisjh worda
passed, and fieally the lie was given by Mr. Hill
Mr. Yancey leaped forward, and as, he aimed a blow
rat his adversary, was caught in the; arms of the lat
ter and violently thrown back over a desk. Mr.
Hill is a man of wonderful muscular' development.
Mr. Yancey was never very heavy, though lithe and
active. In the fall, his spine was seriously injured,
and when itbe bystanders rushed upon Ihe two and
"dragged the one from the other, the great, fire-eater
lay unconscious upon the floor, with a little triekle
of blood oozing from! his lips. He was carried to his
hotel: a vote of secrecy was pissed., and the eucoun-
ter hushed up. iNO one in nicnmouu wtcpi. uv
body of men knewf the circumstances for six
SQonths alter. Meanwhile the victim did not recover.
Heurooped from day to day. Hi became listless,
bopeles8 and vacant. 'He was transferred to his own
home, where bis con yalsions ceased a few weks be
fore hia death, which was tranquil jaud calm. Nash-

within less than 24 hours, last week.
The EabthquXkb in CalIforkijl. A telegram
dated at Sin FrancUco, Oct. (j, says :
The damage by the earthquake yefterday will
amount to considerable, many bouses needing new
wans, new plarmg, and repairing.
The City Halt is damaged it the iront wall to such
an extent that a portion must be rebuilt, at a cost of
several thousand dollars. The old Merchants Ex

probably require rebuilding, j

other town ia the State. , "
The motion was apparently from east to west.
The ground along the river opened in fissures and
spouted water like the Geyserf of Iceland. The peo
ple are unable to use some cf their wens, which are
either dry or filled with sacd. fhe tide rose very
high at the time of the shock, and fell very low im
mediately afterwards. Ten or eleven distinct shocks
were felt since the first shock up to five a. m. to-day.
The estimated losses will amount to $10,000, and
may exceed that sum. '
We fear the revereud gentleman who fills the Exec
utive chair of Tennessee is about to fall from grace,
Hear what the Tribune says of him :
Brownlow would make a pretty mens of Tennessee.
He would disfranchise all the small rebels, hang all
the leaders, and banish the negroes. This would leave
about four thousand men to do all the voting, hold all
the offices and vote. Brownlow would be sure of re
election for the next ten years.

no longer leave a doubt as to the election of Gen.
Humphreys as Governor of the State. His oppo
nent. .Tndcft Fisher, has declared his intention of
urging upon the President his immediate pardon.
It is thought by many that Gov. S arkey's opinion
that the action of the State Convention conferred
n negroes the right of giving testimony in courts
of justice, will defeat him for the United States
benate.
Two negroes sentenced to be hung for murder, and
on their way to the Nashville penitentiary, were taken
from the sheriff who bad them in charge at Bowling
Green, on the 9th, by soma negro soldiers.
Gen. Grant is now in Washington, which place ,
says a correspondent, is to be his permanent resi
dence. Blind Tom, the negro pianists, has been giving

RALEIGH, FRIDAY, OCT.
THE J0ITT.
. .
Spkechificjltioh last Nioht. Gen. Howard,
the chief of the Freedman'a Bursau at Washing
ton, met the members of the State Convention and
a large assemblage of citizens, in the hall of the
House of Commons, last night, to confer and take
counsel of each other as to the present and future
of the colored people in North Carolina. We have
no room for an extended notice of .the affair in this
issue. Gen. Howard expressed the opinion that it
was best for the State authorities and the Bureau
to co operate for the present in the care of the
blacks, but assured the assembly that as soon as
civil law should be restored throughout the State
and Our people were prepared to accept the care
and charge of them to give them such protection
under the laws as they were entitled, to hd take
care of the paupersthe government,,, would with
draw all interference ah be matter. He was anx
ious to see reorganization accomplished as early as
possible and the Union presented as a harmonious
body of States, each oue controlling their particular
domestic concerns.
We may give a more extended report of the con
vocation hereafter. - - -
'
More Light The gas works of the city, since
the induction of Mr. James King into the superin
tendency, have been managed with praiseworthy
regularity. We do not remember any failure in
the matter of light since his accession to place ; but
cannot something better be done in point of dura
tion of light. At present, we believe . gas is sup
plied until midnight after that hour familiesex
press companies, hotels, depot3, printing offices,
apothecaries and "the "rest of mankind" are, in the
dark or left to the tallow dip, poetically recognized
as "the light of other days." We ask for amend
ment in such respect so that we may have light all
night, or if nothing better, until two o'clock. We
suppose it would pay the proprietors, Messrs. Wa
terhouse & Bowles, who are enterprising gentlemen
and public spirited enough to undertake any mat
ter iB which the citizens will sustain them.
Point second. Cannot the streets be lighted
and at once ? If it be argued that tne tinansiai
condition of the city forbids such an expenditure,
we hazard the opioion that no citizen with'a gram
of local pride would object to a levy of&'few cents
in behalf of such an object. Away, than, with this
Egyptian darkness, and let us remember tbe cen
tury in which we live and thatRaleigh is not a
benighted village.

Rare Sight. Time was :n the south when the
hioViARt. offence against societv was to affront
a
lady. Those were chivalric days, in which the lev,
w. O "
loci of every community applied with equal rigor to
bleached and unreached denizens. We were glad
to see the custom revived yesterday by a citizen.
A burly fjdman, named Ned Jones, a squatter
sovereign from Newbern, presumed upon his new
estate, so far as to call a lady a liar. Old cit, with
brass coat and blue buttons, heird the rascal use
the epithet, when he proceeded to use his fists dex
terously. The son of Ham, finding himself the
stronger party, merely parried the blows of the at
tacking force. At the height of the contest a Fed
eral officer came up and learning how matters stood,
joined in the assault and the saucy rascal received
a sound thrashing. .
Wc are glad of this transaction, not because the
negro was beaten, but for the reason that it shows
an unmistakeable determination that insolence to
ladies is not to go unpunished, whatever the cir
cumstances of the country.
Gambles s "-Messrs. Wm. B.' Smith t Co., the

TBI COLOaiB POFULATIOX OF RlLKIOS jlko TBI I
Paosrtcri We have recfentlj made some verj plain
and pointed aagsestioni with respect to the colored pop
ulation of Raleigh and iU Ticinitj. We are pleased to
hear from some ot the most intelligent of their number
that oar motives are properly appreciated. The approach
of winter makes as solicitous for every shade of oar pop
ulation, especially under present circumstances,-anft
ualess improvidenee can be cheered, and a new spirit of
industry stimulated, nothing but a miracle will prevent
either starvation or extensive criminality. The govern,
meat and christian commission have suspended their
operations, and thus considerable help to the blacks is
withdrawn. Bit if they will all work as large bodies
of them, we are glad, are doing tkey will not only
place themselves beyond the har n of cold and hunger,
but commend themselves to the confidence and respect of
white people.
It is net wise to digjuiBe the truth; we tell them plain
ly, and without any reaerre, that tbeir own energies and ,
Own hands mast supply tktr wants during the coming
winter and season of bard necessities. It will be dy&
cult tor white people with employment to stand - out
against the siege which winter will lay at their dors.
How much harder will it be for the colored race, with
out money We shudder at the recital of such things
but we think we are doing nothing more thai our duty
in lifting the curtain which conceals the future If those
who a we address are so blind or so infattatd as not to
heed our advice, then the responsibility for their calam
ities will be upon their own headj. We warn them so
lemnly, and with a mind devoid of al prejudice.
Besides all this, as they appear ' chiefly desirous of
winning upon the kindly feelings of the white popu
lation, nothing will contribute to much in that direction
as exhibitions of industry, honesty, and a cheerful dis
position at self-maintenance. Rely upon it, you will ei
ther make or unmake yourself ia the next twelve months.
Up, then, and work wiih a will. It will do more to
elevate your race tha' all the resolutions that can be
put on paper in a hundred years.
