LETTtR FRO.fi BELL COUNTY.
Bslto.v Texas Nov. 12 1882.
Bell county ha been noted for some
year past for Its extreme religious views
or perhaps more properly speaking the
extreme religious view of some of its In-
habitants. Only a tew year ago Dr.
Russell was taken out and severely pun-
iabed because he was prominent auioug a
number who disbelieved in the lm Ira-
tion of the scriptures and tbe existence
of a Uod. But a few months ago the
Dow brothers were similarly treated be-
cause they bad too much reli-
gion. 1 mention these instances
to show that some people here
believe tbe same treatment will cure
either extreme. 1 may add a evidence
that ucb treatment doe not meet tbe ep-
pr. val of tbe better class that Dr. Kussell
still live In this county and Is doing a
lucrative practice and that tbe Dow
brothers who are carpenters live io thia
oity and are getting all the work tbey can
do.
I did not. however begin to raise from
the dead tbe ghosts ol the past but rather
to speak ol the present particularly with
reference to tbe sauctiflcallonints.
For some year past there haa
existed in this city a band
of fanatical religionists who claim to be
sanctified. I do not undertake to give
their religious view In lull but I may
ay that tbey believe they oan commit uo
sin and that It I wroug lor a sanctified
person to live with an unsanutitled one.
This last doctrine baa caused tbe separa-
tion of several husbands and wive and
no little commotion In other circle. This
fanaticism is now chiefly confined to
ladies and. be It aaid to their
credit that whatever else may b said
against tnem tne Dream oi aianaer
baa never breathed anything aga nst
their virtue or moral standing. Thia
band has been guilty ol numerous indis
cretion and follies which ha justly
brought down on their head the wrath
of tbe community. Tbey claim to work
together for their own gooa ana toe ben-
efit of their cause. Frequently It hap-
pens that a wile is sanctified whose hus-
band Is of a very worldly nature. Much
uuequal yoking nearly alwaya produce
a Jar in tbe family relations. Several sep-
arations have occurred on account of It.
A I said before this band works to
gether and among other Industries they
have tried to establish a laundry. Amons-
otbera who belong to this band Is tbe
wife ol a prominent merchant. She con-
cluded to turn their residence which I
an elegant one. into a laundry tor the
good ol Ibe cause Tbe husband ob-
jected but the tanctlded band assembled
there anyhow tie attempted to eject
tbem and there ensued a battle
that wa more humorous than se
rous lie Anally got them away and
as a matter of protection had fourteen
of them arrested on a charge ol
asaauit. They gave bond and when the
case was called yesterday It was contin-
ued by the state. In tbe courtroom some
rough word passed between tbe prose
culing witness and tbe husband of the
leader of the sanctified band who I not
In sympathy with it but was protecting
hi wire a ne tnougnt. me oimcuuy
was Quieted there. Tbey afterward met
on the street and came to blows but were
separated before any damage was done
tireat excitement prevails In town over
the arrest of tbe sanctified sisters and the
difficulty above mentioned. Nearly all
are opposed to the eanctiflcationlsta and
hope the society may be broken up yet
all regret tbe unfortunate difficulty above
mentioned. Unquestionably tbe Sanctis-
cationlsta have done much barm here and
it would be a Oed aend to thia communi-
ty If It could rid Itself of thtm.
Haw Henry Clay- fJeed ta Prepare
Speeches.
John Wentworth.
Wheu he deemed it necessary to
make an argumentative speech or
what is generally called a set speech
he has bis books piled into a carriage
and with his servant went just over
the Maryland line to the plantation
of Hon. Charles II. Calvert and there
remained in privacy until he was
ready to address the senate. Mr.
Calvert was one ot the wealthiest
men and loading agriculturists in the
state of Marylaud. Mr. Clay's room
was upon the ground floor upon tbe
back side of the house and opened
up on a large potico from which
there was magnificent scenery as at
tractive a place as a retired states
man could desire ana tbe freedom or
the plantation was his with all its
numerous seryantscoming and going
arriving aud returning.as he pleased.
Mr. Clay's room there gives noto-
riety to the establishment to this
day. Few strangers at Washington
in the summer time fail to visit it.
It haa ever been the object ot the
proprietors to keep this room as he
left it. There are his easy chair
dressing-gowns and slippers. But
his set or argumentative speeches
were not what gave him character.
He was not like Mr. Calhoun when
he made au uninterrupted speech in
tbe senate nor like Webster in the
supreme court room. It was
for his forensic or disputative tal-
ents that be was distinguished above
all other men. Although the senate
and all the galleries would always
be filled when it was announced that
Mr. Clay would speak yet it was
always with the expectation
and hope that some one would in-
terrupt him and a grand intellectual
sparring exposition would take
place. Ot all men whom I ever
heard 1 never knew one who could
endure so much interruption and
discuss so many side issues and fin-
ish his speecb with the entire facts
and the entire line ot argument
marked ontin his mind from tbe be-
ginning as Mr. Clay. Could the en-
emies of Mr. Clay have formed a
combination never to interrupt him
they would have deprived him ol
much of his senatorial glory. The
beat speeches of Calhoun Webster
and Benton were well considered
and read now much as when deliv-
ered. Not so with Mr. Clay's
best speeches. They were un-
premeditated and as much a sur-
Erise to himself as bis audience
hort hand reporting had not then
reached its present condition. Thus
Clay must suffer with posterity in-
capable of hearing varied intona
tions of his ever-pleasing voice or of
seeing bis gesticulations bis rising
upon his toes bis stamp of his foot
his march down (he aisles until his
long fingers would almost touch the
president's aosK ana dii Dsctwsra

Question what if you know
was tbe particular overt act for
which Collins in March 1880 was
as you aay suspended irom duty t
Answer Of my own knowledge I
do not know as I was not presentin
tne caDin at tne time.
Q. In what spirits were the offi
cers and men when they started iu
tbe retreat aud generally during the
march and when if at any time did
tbey snow any despoudeucvf
A. They were all in the beot of
spirits when tbey started on too re-
treat and during the march they
were more thoughtful. Duriug the
ten days' camp they kept closer to
eacn other in more serious discus
sion of reaching land and safety.
Q was there a fair division of
labor made among ali the ship's
comnanv duriuir the retreat ?
A. Yes sir with tbe exception of
tnose on tne sick list or suspended
from dutv.
Q. Was Collins fully able to work
at tbe time wheu suspended from
duty?
A. 1 tuiuK be was.
Q. Was delay at Beuuett Island
necessary for repair of tbe boats aud
recuperation of the meu aud uo
longer thau was requisite for this
purpose?
A. mo men were in very jrood
condition but rest was undoubtedly
good lor tnem. I don't think the
boats could have beeu repaired to
the same advautage on the ice as ou
tbe island. The delay was uo
longer tbau was necessary to make
repairs aud effect a uew orgauiza-
tion preparatory to taking to the
boats.
Q. Was there auv unnecessary
delay on the retreat either before or
after tne separation of the boats?
A. jno 1 believe no.
Q. Did the boats selected lor the
retreat prove to be the best possible
in respect of their seaworthiucss
their convenience of haudliujr on
the ice and their capacity for carry
ing their crews and equipments?
A. les sir. l tbiuk it was tbe
best selection tbat could have been
made. Tbey were tho best three
boats on the Jeanuette to trausport
on ice. The crew were of course ac-
commodated to the carrviug ca
pacity of the boats. Iu mv opiuiou
the secoud cutter floated lighter
than either of the others. As to
their seaworthiness I don't think the
second cutter she being shorter was
so good a sea boai but 1 don't
think either the whale boat or tbe
first cutter could have reached tbe
Siberian coast but for the weather
cloths which in tho case of the first
cutter were fully one foot high.
while those of the second cutter
were ouly about six inches bizli.
Taking all thiDgs into consideration
I think the selection of these three
boa's for thirty-three people was
the best that could have beeu made
aud I believe had we selected three
boats as awkward to handle on ice
as the whale boat we would never
have got through.
y. what it you know wa the
controversy betweeu Dauenhower
and Newcomb which resulted in the
suspension of tbe latter from duty at
Beuuett Island r
A. I ouly know from talking but
was not a witness.
Q. What arraugemeut9. If any.
were made for commuuicatien ou the
boats by signals?
A. Xoue whatever that 1 know
of.
Other questions developed the fact
that Melville and Daneubower are
variance ou a good many poiuts.
Melville thinks a delay of leu days
on Bennett Island was unavoidable.
and tbat the best eclcctiou of boats
was made that was posbible; that
the quickest possible meaus of reach-
ing open water was adopted and
that tbe route choseu was the best
one to reach the objectivo point.
On all these matters Daneubower
has expressed a contrary opiuion as
well as ou others of some less impor-
tance. The witness believed Collins had
not been restored to duty when tbe
retreat over the ice begau. He was
asked if it would have beeu to ad-
vantage to have had the services in
dragging the boats of those who
were under suspension and replied
without doubt they required all tbe
working force they could gel ; and
could they have bad the services ol
those suspended it would have been
lighter for those. doing the work.
Question now lousr did Collins
remain under suspension ?
A. rrom the time of suspension
until we separated on the night of
September 1Z 1881.
Q. Was Lieut. Daneubower able
to do duty from September 12. 1881.
to September 27 1881 ?
A. rrom September 12 1881
till September 27 1881. Lieut.
Daneubower was able to perform
some duty but not all of such duty
as would be required ol au officer m
either of these positions.
Q. Did Lieut Dauenhower at any
time during this interval say be was
able to do duty and ask to be pro-
moted to take command ?
A. No be did not.

Aa Eencatsd Farmsr
"He spent Lis patrimony in paving
his way through college and now
he is plowing" said a negro to us
some time since in speaking of one
of the sons of bis old master. His
tone indicated most clearly that in
his opinion the young man had act-
ed most unwisely. To bis apprehen.
sion a collegiate training was worth-
less as a preparation forthe farm.
Perhaps like most of bis newly lib-
erated brethren he thought that
every oue who can read write and
cipher should either wag bis
bead in a pulpit" or flourish
the Tod ol instruction over
the heads of young travelers
along the pathway of knowledge.
We fear the idea has prevailed tar
too much with people generally tbat
any dolt mas- be a farmer. As a mat-
ter of truth we need mind educated
mind as much in the field as we do
anywhere. If under the new order
of things that has been forced npon
ns the agricultural interests of our
j measure ot what is needed farming
most oe studied by men capable of
thinking. We no longer have lands
of virgin fertility which will yield
proline crops with tbe most slov-
enly husbandry. We no longer have
laborers w hose in d ntry can be relied
upon for every Lour in the day and
for every day in tbe year. Instead
of these we have exhausted fields
and help the most uncertain and
the most unreliable. These nnpro-
Eitious circumstances roust be met
y improved modes of culture. The
tiller of tbe soil must contrive to
have nve six or a do&en stalks to
grow where only one nas hitherto
grown. He must also bring the
powers of his intellect into play to
see u larger results cannot be secur
ed with less exercise of nioscle. The
small farmer must learn to bring
nis tew acres into a condition that
they will afford him an ample sup-
port without the continuous labor
tbat will deny him all chances
for improvement. To do all
this he needs intellectual training.
It may not be tbat the curricula of
our colleges are the best tbat could
oe devised to lit a young man for
solving tbe problems presented to a
practical farmer. If. however tbey
drill him into thinking methodically
and into comparing tacts and scru
tinizing deductions a foundation is
laid upon which be may erect a ma
terial fortune bure we are tbat a
large number of tbe young men who
are at college must apply their tal-
ents and energies to agriculture or
it will sutler while the "learned pro-
fessions" are crowded.

Moore held and owned some of it Mo-
Goe loaned Moore money taking a bill of
sale to the millet planted and a mortgage
on other property. Appellants were
Moore's security. While tbe bill of sale
on its face was absolute it was in fact a
