As you enter the cemetery at Montgomery, and turn to the right, 3'ou will perceive a colonado of maple trees leading oir toward a quiet glen. Beyond is a jrrassy knoll, and leaving this to the left, you approach pleasant level of green sward. Here you may be tempted to pause before a plain slab of marble of the most humble description. It bears a single inscription. "William L. Yancey." His last words were. "Put me out of sight;" and it is said that he was constantly muttering towards his latter end, those lines of Pope: J'LM me lire gniera, unknown, And unlamented hit ma die, or mound, nor monument, nor atone, Tell where I lie." His death was quiet and painless, after a year or acute mental and pfnsical Buttering He was a strict churchman, a man of quiet manners, a handsome declaimer and a fair scholar. He was never wealthy, and it Is understood that he left his family without an independence. ' The time has come when the circumstances which occasioned his death, with the, occasion which suddenly conYnlsev"a frame from perfect health into a week and mere shadow, may be mentioned as a historical fact. William L. Yancey came to kit. death, by. violance. lit was toward th close ' of the second session of the first Confederate Congress that he broke from the counsel and influence of Mr,' Davis, and became, with uenryr. foote, a loader or the opposition. 51 r. Hn Hill, ft Senator from Georgia, had likewise changed his front, and was remarkable for the earnestness and persistency with which he supported the measures of an administration to which his allegiance had been given but late in the day. Mr. Yancey, it will be remembered, had returned from an unsuccessful mission' to Europe',"' and was representing Alabama in the Confederate Congress. TUo question lot a "naVy was under discussion in the ' secret session. The debate ranged beyond the parliam entary limits, and Messrs., Yancey and Hill be came animated over the abstract doc trines of .SUU Rights and the divinity of alareryv High word, passed , and Anally the lie was given by Mr. Hill Mr. Yancey Uaped forward, and as he aimed and as he aimed a blow at his adversary, was caught in the arms of the latter and violently thrown back over a desk. Mr. Hill is a Tii an of wonderful muscular development. . Mr. Yancey was never very hoavy, thoughjithe and active. In the fall his spine was seriously injured, and when the bystanders rushed upon the two ami dragged the one from the other, the great II ro-eater lay unconscious upon the tloor, with a little trickle of blood oozing from his lips. He was carried to his hotel, a vote of secrecy was passed, and the rencounter was hushed up. No one in Richmond except that body ot men knew of the circumstances for six months after. Meanwhile the victim did not recover. He dro iped from that day. He became listless, hopeless and vacant. 1 He was transferred to his own home, where his convulsions ceased a few weeks before his death, which was very tranquil and calm. ' He died without one hope of the success of the Southern Republic he had aspired to found and govern: for whieh he had labored day and night for twentyfive years ; to which he had sacrificed his people, the Union of the States, and the cdiosan institutions of the South, a broken hearted ma "nuwept, unhonored, and unsung.' Republican Banner. After jwrsning the foregoing article, we fell iuto the company of a member of tha Richmond Congress who confirms the thruth of the story.,... The secret was well kept by the rein-Is, for our informant states that the tight and injury to Yancey were not known in Richmond for six mouths after the occurrence. JSrvtcnlotr JVhlff.

KUe.e th.y .e.e receded by tlie l'resideir., w .(, ad-Le.-vid t:ie:ii as follows : "My friend-t. my o'-Jeot i:i preenting myself before you ou X'.A caion, is dimply to th-ink you b ; members of one of the colored retina iit-j which has been in the service of the country to sustain and carry its banner and its laws triumphantly in every part of this broad land. I repeat that I appear before you on the present occasion merely (o tender you my thanks for the compliment you have paid me ou your return home, to again be associated with your friends and your relatives, ami those you hold most sacred and dear. I repeat, I have but little to say, it being unusual in this Government and most other Governments to have colored troops engaged in their service. You have gone fort'i, as events have shown, and served with patience and endurance in the cause of 3'our country. This is your country as well as anylwty else's country. Cheers. This is the country in which you expect to live, and in which you should expect to do something by your example in civil life as you have done in the field. This country is founded upon the principles of equality, at the same time the standard y which persons are to be estimated is according to their merit and their worth, and you have observed, no doubt, that for him who does his duty faithfully anil honestly there is always a just pub lic judgement that will appreciate and measure out to him his proper reward. 1 know that there is much well calcu latcd, in this Goverument, and since the late rebellion commenced, to excite the ' white against the black and the black .against the white rnau. These are tilings ' you should all understand, ami at the J same time prepare 3'oursel ves for what is ' before you. Upon the return of peace and the stir- ; render 4f the enemies of the country, it ; should be the duty of every patriot, and ' every one who calls himself a Christian, ! to remember that with the closing of the ; war his resentments should cease; that angry feelings should subside, and that every man should become calm and tran- ' quil, and bo prepared for what is before ' him. This is another part of your mission. You have been engaged in the effort to sustain your country in the past, ' but the future is more important to you than the period in which you have just j been engaged. One great question has been settled in this Government, and that question is the question of slavery. . The institution of slavery made war against the United State, and the United States has lifted its-strong arms in vindi- ; cation of the Govern meut ; and in lifting . that arm, and appealing to the God of Battles,, it has been decided that the in- 1 8titution ot slavery must go down. - , Cheers. This has been done, and the Goddess of Liberty, in bearing witness over many of our battlefields since the struggle commenced, has made her loftiest flight, and proclaimed that liberty has been established upon a more permanent and en 1'iri i b isis tUan heretofore. Applause Hit this is not all; and as you have p tid me the compliment to call upon me, I shall take the privilege of saying one or two words as I am before you. I repeat, though it is not at all new, that when the sword is returned to its scabbard, when your arms are reversed, and the olive branch of peace is extended, as I remarked before, that resentment and revenge should subside. Then, what is to follow ? Y'ou do understand, no doubt, and if you don't, yon cannot understand too soon, that simple liberty does not mean the privilege of going into the battlefield or into the service of the country as a soldier. It mems other things as well ; and now when you have laid down your arms, there are other objects of equal importance before yMrr now that the Government has triumphmtly passed through this mighty rebellion . After the most gigantic battles the world ever saw, the problem is before you, and it is best that you should understand it ; aud, therefore, I speak simply and plainly. 'Will you now, when you have returned from the army of the L'utted bt:itos and take the position f citizen, when you have returned to the avocations of peace, will you give evidence to the world that you are capable and competent to govern yourselves? That is what you will have to do. Liberty it not a mere idea, a mere vagary. It is an idea or it is a reality. When j'ou come to examine this question of liberty, you will uot mistake a mere idea for reality. It does not consist in idleness. Liberty does not consist in being worthless. Liberty does uot consist in doing all things" as we please, and there can be no liberty without law. In a Govern ment of freemen, of liberty, there must be law, and there must be obedience and submission to the law without regard to eolor. Cheers Liberty and may I not call you my countrymen liberty consists in the glorious privilege of work, of pursuing the ordinary avocation of peace with ind istiy and with economy, an I that leing done, all those who have been industrious Mid economical are permitted to appropriate and enjoy th pro lucts of their labor. (Cheers ) This U o ie of the greatest blessings of freed ueu. an 1 hence we mig.it ask: th question a i I answer it by stating. that liberty mean InvJom to work and. Y"'i wid sroo mustered out of the r inks It is f r vol to establish the srre.U l'a t that y i are tit and qualified, to be free; hence free lorn is not a men, idea, but is sn-.net1 in J that exists in fact Freed m is not simply the privilege to live in idleness Lib-it v does not m -ar simpiy the privilege to re . : to t ie losaloons and other placid of lUrep itabl u . ..

JUST AND FEAR NOT! LET ALL THE RICIIJIOIfD, to be in luatrions; to be virtuous, to be . upright in all our dealings and relations with men An I to those now before me, ' me tibers of the 1st Regiment of colored volunteers from the District of Columbia i and the Capital of the United States, I have to say thit a great dal depends upon yo irs'dves You mu-t give evidence that vo'i are 'eouMtent for the rights 'that the Government has guaranteed to fyon- Henceforth each aud all of you I must be measured according to your ; merit. If one man is more meritorious ' t an the other, they canuot be equals, : and he is the most exhalted that is the ! most meritorious, without regard to color, and the idea of having a law passed ! in the morning that will make a white man a black man before night, and a black man a white man before day, is j absurd. That is not the standard. It ! is your own merit. It is the development of j'our own minds, and of your own intellectuality and moral quali ties. Let this, then, be your course adopt : a system of morality, abstain from all licentiousness ; and let me say one thing I here, for I am going to talk plainly. I have lived in a southern State all my life and know what has too often been the case. There is one thing you should esteem higher and more suprwne than almost all others, iind that is the solemn contracts, with all the penalties, ia the j association of married life. Men and women should abstain from those practices and habits that too frequently follow a war. Inculcate among your children and among your associates, notwithstanding you are just back from the army of the United States, that virtue, that merit, that intelligence, are the standards to be observed, and those j which you are determined to maintain during 3-onr future lives. This is the way to make white men black and black ; men white. Cheers. He that is most ! meritorious and virtuous anil intellectual ' ami well informed, must stand highest J without regard to color. It is the very , basis udou which heaven rests itself. Each individual takes his degree in the ' sublimer and more exalted regions in ! proportion to his merits and his virtue, j I shall say to you on this occasion in re- ; turning to your homes and firesides, after feeling conscious and proud of having faithfully discharged your duty, re- . turning with the determination that you I will perform your duty in the future a you have in the past, abstain from all ! those bickerings and jealousies and revengeful feelings which too often spring up between different races. There is a great problem lefore us, and I may as well allude to it here in this connection, j and that is whether this race can be in , corporated and mixed 'with people of the United States to !e made a harmonious and permanent ingredient in the popula- ! tion. This is a problem not yet solved, but we are irr tha.right. line to do so. "( Slavery raised its head against the Govj eminent and the Government raised its strong arm and struck it to the ground. l So that part of the problem is settled, v Tlie institution of slavery U overthrown, -f but' another part remains to be solved, and. that is can four millions of people, i rait ted as they have been with all the preIjudi ces of the whites, can they take 1 plac -.es in the community and be made to wor k harmoniously in our system? This j ia a problem to be considered. Are the 1 digestive powers of the American GovS em ment sutllcient to receive this element ! in a new shape aud digest it and m:ke it work healthfully upon the system that has incorporated it? This is the question ; to be determined. Let us make the experiineut and make it in good faith. If thisconnot be done; there is anotht er problem that is before us. If we have f to become a separate and distinct people, ! a lthough I trust that the system can be j ! in ade to work harmoniously, and that the j 'great problem will 1ms settled ; without j ! gc ing any further, if it should be so that j i the t wo races oanuot agree and live in j peac e and prospei ity, and the laws of j Pro' idenee require1 that they should be j ' sopi irated, in that event, looking to the ; far distant future, and trusting it may uev er come, if it should come, the Provi- ! den ce that works mysteriously but uner j rii:ily and certainly, will point out the I war and the manner by which these peopie are to be separated, and they are to I A be takeu to their lands 01 inheritance : an tl promise, for such an one is before i th em. Hence, let me impress upon you i th e importance of controlling your pasj si ou', developing your intellect, and of a pplying your physical powers to the j ii idustrial interests of the country, and 1 t! iat is the true process by which this uestion cau be settled. Be patient, per evering and forbearing and you will elp to solve the problem. Make for ourselves a reputation iu this cause, as ou have won lor yourselves a reputah ; y t ion in the cause in which you have been e Tt gaged. In speaking to the members of this giment, I want them to understand iat as far as I am Concerned I do not isutneor pretend that I am stronger i ian tlie laws oi nature, or tnat 1 am iser than Providence itself. It is our uty to try and discover what those rest laws are which are at the found at ion of all things, and having discovered what they are, conform our actions ar .d our conduct to them and to the will i of tioil who ruleth.aU things. He holds 1 th e destinies of nations in t e palm of H is hand, and He will solve the q es tion and rescue these people from the j di iHculties that have so long surrounded i t'.ieui. Then let us be iatient, industri hl, A Q n . 1 rwrwpnntT I .,f- (Hoi-nl.-ir. on,- ' , . .... i intellectual and moral worth. I trust w-aat I have said may be understood and f j appreciated. Go to your homes and lerl peacful, prosperous and happy lives, iti peace with all men.

The New Planet and its Discoverer. Professor James C. Watson,. Directo Director iv.n Arof the Detroit Observatory at A ! bor. announced the discovery by himself j OU -UOIUiay eveumg, 01 a "ci avouch, ato astronomical location is given as follows : - - Right ascension, 14 deg 15 min.; declination, 9 degrees north. It is a small star, its magnitude being only nine and one half. This is the second diseovery of this character that Professor Watson has made since his ascension to the Di rectorship of the Observatory. He was appointed successor to Professor Rrun- ! now on August 25th, 1SG3. aud on Sepj temoer 14th he discovered a new planet j in the constellation Piscis, never before j recognized by nor known to any astronoi mer of either hc.jhre. ' Subsequent i examinations fully established the plane ) tary character of the new star, aud the j discovery was immediately announced hy j the American press and through the Ku- ; ropeau astronomical journals. Observai tions at both Washington and Albany, and also at the Royal Observatory of Leinsic, confirmed the discovery, and the ; new planet was named hurvuuaie. 11 is I situated between Mars and Jupiter. Its ! main distance from the sun is 2:)3.HK),- : 000 miles, and its year contains 1,3J7 of J our days. Concerning his last discovery, none of ; these minor computations have yet been i made, or at least their result has notbeen 1 announced. We await a communication from Prof. Watson ou the subject with ; much interest. In astronomical circles, the Detroit Observatory occupies a lirst : rank, being dilHcuit to surpass either iu I the extent of woiy'pfrforme 1, or the val1 ue of its contributions to scientific j knowledge in its peculiar department. I Prof. Watson's industry is proverbial. I and his labors thus far have earned a handsome reward. the Observatory is the pride of our University, and in this respect surpasses almost every rival institution of learning upon this continent. The citizens of Detroit, to whose liberalits erection is due, may justly feel a pride In the character of their donation, and the important results thereby secured. Gov. Morton's Speech at Richmon d. At Richmond, last Thursday, his Excellency presented a banner to the. people of Wayne oounty. on behalf the Sanitary Commission, for the liberal eontri, buttons of money and sanitary stores from Wayne county. That county becomes the .banner county of the Stated Gov. Morton improved the opportunity, of presenting his views ou national ques-5 tions, and especially on the subject of reconstruction. He snowed by docuinen .j tary comparison.'that President Johnson had, in every respect, carried outthe pol- rH icy of President Lincoln, and that i this - policy was - distinctly : recognized and sanctioned by the last Congress. It pro vided for the appointment of provision-, al Governors; State Conventions, and the' revision of Constitutions. The Govern or took strong ground against 'the t enfranchisement of the blacks, but said ultimately they would be accorded the equal right of citizenship. He opposed colonization, as unjust to the negro, and spoke severely aif.iinst tlie oppressive black laws of this State. This is prohably only a foreshadowing of the policy of the Union party of Indiana. While we do not agree with all that the Governor said, yet it is probably as good a policy as the party can harmoniously agree upon. We have heretofore given reasons for favoring colonization of ne groes in the'unsettfed Territories, and ; there giving them all the rights of citizenship in this Government, to which views we still adhere; but we are willing to adopt the best policy that is possible for trie futurc-'welfare of the blacks. We think the simple ftirht to vote in the Southern States will only le a nominal benefit. But with homes, and all thu rights of citizenship in the Western Territories, they would receive something substantial. They would then be rewarded for their long and weary l ears of toil, and like the children of Israel, they would have a land, a -country of their own, and which would be an inheritance to them and their children forever. This would be to them iho promised land Here would be plated before them sx( tives for honorable exertion, and soon their voices would be heard in ou. r national councils, and they would soo n be respected throughout the civilized w Win.

Gov. Morton is a Republican, is the recognized head of the party in this State, has been bitterly denounced as a radical, has been spoken of as a candil: !.,.. j date for the Presidency, and therefore has some claim to be regarded as an ex poncnt of the views and purposes of the party. In vain will the reader look for those "denunciations"1 of which the copperheads speak. Instead he will find a hearty and generous support given to the President, and a substantial proof offered that Johnson is but carrying out the line of policy laid down by , Mr. Lincoln All who revere the memory of that g eat martyr in the eanse of human freedom, will be glad to see this thorough vindication of President Johnson's consistency', and will be quited of the fears raised by the lavish praise bestowed on him by his and their opponents.; Sev Albany Com. .'.''..''
