The Prospects.
The Savannah Republican, inn re
cent editorial on the Koign of Butler
in New Orleans, says:
Wo set out not so much to comment
on the crimes of this bloodthirsty and
loathsomo wretch, ns to rofer to certain
spot ulations concerning his prospects
for the future. For roosons which wo
have never heard fully explained, it is
believed by many close observers of
events that his detestable reign is fast
drawing to a close. We have heard
the opinion confidently expressed by
intelligent gentlemen, that within less
than six weeks tho city of Now Or
leans would bo redeemed from Aboli
tion rule, the Mississippi openod to the
comtncrco of tho world, and the vile
wretchButlcr placed where he will be
impotent for lmrm. The immense ar
mada with fifty thousand troops that
arc to cross tho Atlantic, If they have
not already dono so, In tho direction of
Mexican ports, aro believed to have a
grander object in view than the reduc.
tion of that unfortunate country to a
foreign dominion. One half the men
and Bhips would bo amplo for the pur
pose ostensibly sot forth, and there arc
motives far weightier than any growing
out of Mexican relations and destiny,
for a change of their direction and ul
timate purposes.
How tnucb faith should be attached
to these speculations, we do net pre
tend to say. For one we hope they
may be realised, and we aro willing to
take the result with nil its attendant
uncertainties and risks. In no event
can we be worsted, and wo can see very
many reasons why an armed interfer
ence of the kind referred to would pro
bably bo diroeted to tho advancement
of our best interests. There is no doubt,
from all tho signs in tho political sky
that wo are nppronching a crisis when
something is to step in to change the
aspeots of tho lovolution, and we can
see no reason to apprehend that the
change will operate to our disadvan
tage. A few weeks will probably serve
to turn over a new leaf in- the history
of this bloody, unnatural and infamous
war—a war not from motives of prin
ciple or philanthropy, but with the un
adulterated desire for plunder and
thrift. The North has at last boon
brought to tho humiliating confession
they cannot subsist without the gains
they annually draw from our pooketi
and that a million of armed fiends have
been turned loose to murdor eur people
and desolate the land, for no better
reason than that we may be compelled
to buy their wares, vote them bounties
and feed their paupers. God and man
should side with us in such a war. The
former has done so thus far, and the
latter may whcn*the suspicions hour
shall have arrived.
Heroic Self Sacrifice.
Wo learn from a late number of the
Cincinnati Enquirer that one of the vic
tims selected by the Federal Gen. Mc-
Niell, for his butchery in Missouri,
was a inan who had a wife and several
children dependent altogether upon
his daily labor for their support. A
young man knowing tho condition of
the family, offered himself to MoNiell
as a substitute for tho husband and fa
ther, was accopted, and was ont qf tht ten
that wire shot. The Cincinnati paper,
with more independence than we
should have looked for from that quar
ter, says the history of that atrocious
murder would not be complete without
the relation of this incident of heroic
self-sacrifice ; neither would tho infa
my of MoNiell be fully understood and
appreciated without its recital. One of
the reproaches of tho Administration
is, that MoNiell was allowed to romain
a single day in service after this inhu
man affair had been brought to its no
tice.
From the same source we learn that
at tho late Fremont celebration in St.
Louis, McNiell was present, and that
during the occasion ho proposed to
drink with a brother officer. Tho re
sult of the invitation was a marked
one. The officer invited by MoNiell to
drink recoiled from the offer as if in
contact with dishonor, and denounced
him as a murderer, and unfit for the
society of an officer of the American
army. He told him further, whore ho
could be found it MoNiell considered
himself insulted by the way ho had
been treated-
Tax Odors or Hem.—Ax Incident
or Columeus.—Our readers have heard
of the explosion of a rifled one hun
dred and twenty-five pounder, which
occurred at Columbus, Ky., on the
10th of November last year, by whioh
■ the lamentable Capt. Klitor and eight
others were instantly killed, and many
were dangerously wounded. Among
the injurea were Col. Pickett, of the
Encineor Corps, Major Rucker, of con
script immortality, and Lieut. General
Polk.
With tho gun the magazine beneath
it exploded, filling the air with dust
and enrthand shell, and with fragments
of timbers and iron by whioh the gun
was moved.
Rucker was blown from the embank
ment that surrounded the gun. When
he had partially recovered his senses
he felt iome one beside him. Thp air
was bo densely filled with smoke and
powder, that the sufferers sould not
see, and breathing was painful and
dlffioult, -
Rucker asked who he was that lay be
side him. “I am Gen. Polk” was the
almost inaudible answer.
“This is h—11, ain't it, General t”
inquired Rucker.
“It smells like it, I believe,” answer'
ed the General.
This is a literal fact, and all the sto
ries bruited about, especially by the
Abolition press, to tho effect that Gen.
Folk has even forgotten his habits as a
Christian, since his assumption of the
duties of a soldier, are utterly false.—
lie has never been heard, under any
ciroumitances, to employ a profane
expressien. His quasi endorsement of
Major Rucker's smothered ejaculation
would hardly present an aot'onable
case before a Court of Bishops.—Knox
ville Register.
Ml* The “Pastoral Letter, from tho
Bishops of the Protestant Episcopal
Church to the Clergy and Laity ot the
Church in the Confederate States of
America,” which was presented bo
fore the First General Council in Au
gusts, has been printed at the office of
he Chronicle and Sentinel.
It is interesting, comprehensive and
appropriate in selection and treatment
of topics, and is from the pen of Bishop
Ellioit, of Georgia.
MrTlie Knoxville Register of the 6th
Bays it rumored, but not oredited. that
the militia Brigadier General Shields
lias organized aft armed’force, said to be
two thousand strong, in Cocke county,
to resist the enforcement of the Con-
suript Act. Col. Thomas. of the Confede
rate service, has rent here (so it is
rumored on the streets) for additional
troops, in order that he may euforce the
law and disperse Shields' baud of lories.
We believe this story to be an exagera-
tion, but it was current and credited
yesterday afternoon.

Col. Stewart said if the soldiers wore
afraid of loosing tlieir wives, that they
could got another just as good as t’other;
if they could not do that, they could
take somebody else's wife, and if they
could not do that, just call on Gen.

that the department will pay for shoos,

Seizino Corn.—We are informod that
Government agent passed doon the
South-Western Railroad, a few day ago,
and seized all the corn at tho vnriuop
depots stored on individual account.
The Government; has on hand and is fat

suppose that this corn is to be used in
that way. We think it likely that
operations of tho kind will occur soon
off of the railroads.—Sumter Republican.

Atuth and Gaiety in the Yankee
Capital.
Notwithstanding the sufferings and
miseries of the country, the Yankee
capital is drunk with mirth and gaiety.
A Washington correspondent of a Now
York paper says i
Whashiiigton is just now l ; Vely be
yond all precedent. Three theatres,
two circuses, and two hybrid places of
amusements known respectively at
Canterbury and Olympic Hall, besides
a dozen smaller places of enjoyment,
are in full blast, and are nightly jam
med to repletion. Hacks by the liun
dreds, filled with pleasure, seeking par
ties, are incessantly dashing iiither and
thither; gaily dressed equestrians can
ter about the avenues, and dense
crowds of happy; richly dressed pedes
trians throng the sake-walks at all
hours. Tin skeleton in our national
closet is npt suspected of existcnco in
this section; the gigantic war effects
people ns little as if it were being
waged between the Hottentots and
Senegambians.
The irrepressible Barnum is also lec
turing on Sundays, in the Capital
§ rounds, upon temporance, and oilier
ays exchanging views of Commodore
Nut, Tom Thumb, grizzly bears, etc.,
for the quarters and halves of the citi
zens,, in whioh transaction lie, as usual,
S ets much tho best of the bargain.—
ust now thero is moro interesting
newspaper war waging between him
and Nixon, the proprietor of a rival
circus, in whioh Barnum is, as usual,
ahead, and has shown that, in the use
of abuso, he is by far the biggest black
guard of the two.
Maggie Mitchell, nt Ford's theatro,on
Tenth street, has drawn crowded hou
ses for six consecutive weeks, and in
addition lias turned tho heads of half
the spooney shoulder straps in Wash
ington. Nightly tho stage is flooded
with boquots, and freqcntly with more
substantial evidences of admiration,
until the green houses of 'Washington
and the pockets of her admirers are
about equally empty. And thus we
go—a gay and festive community.
A Case in Short Hand.—Under the
head “a case in short hand, the New
York Express quito pithily unsivers the
Tribuno’s pith i
The Tribune is pithily allowing the
causes of the war, and that great cause
to bo slavery, thus sums up :
1. The rebellion lias broken out only
in tho slavo states.
(A mistake I It first broke out in
Massachusetts, which nullified tho
Constitution of the United States and
tho laws of Congress in tho so-called
“personal bills.’’]
2.- It commenced in South Carolina,
tho most pro-slavery of them all, and
mastered State after State, in exact
proportion to their interest in and do'
votion to slavery.
[Another mistake! It began in BcS'
ton, in rescues from United States Mar
shals ; in Syracuse, in the Jerry rescue
case ; in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in the
Booth caso.]
The real fact is, that for ten ye
Massachusetts has not been fairly in
under the Constitution of the United
States—aye, ever since the organisa
tion of the Government—from tho days
of the Shay’s Rebellion, on to the Hart
ford Convention, Massachusetts has
been more or less in opposition, to the
constitution and laws of the United
States. Wo have had three rebellions
in Massachusetts since 1780. 1st. The
Shay’s Rebellion. 2d. The Embargo
Rebellion. 3d. The Personal Liberty

A Novel Rat Trap.—The New York
Sunday Times says; Take a mackerel
barrel, for instance, and fill it to about
one third its height with water. Then
place a log endwise in the water, so
that ono end of it will just remain
above the surface. Make the head of
the barol a little too small to fit, and
suspend it by two pins to tho inside
of the top of the barrel, so it will hang
m if on a pivot, and easilyjtip by touch
ing either side. On this head, thus sus
pended, secure a piece of savory meat.
The first rat that scents it will, to get
the meat, leap on the barrel head.
The head will tip, or tilt, and preoipi
tale him into the water, and resume
its former position. The rat in the
water will swim to tho log, get on the
end of it and squeal vociferously. His
crise will bring other rats, all whom
will be tilted in to tho water, and all
fight for the only dry spot in it, viz :
the end of the log. As only ono rat
can hold, the victor will drown all the
rest, andean in the morning bo drown.

rats caught in ono night by such

Camp Fdn.—The Richmond Whig
has a correspondent in Jackson’s corps,
who furnishes the following specimens
of soldier wit:
It is when idle in camp that the sol
dier is a great institution ; yet one must
be seen to be appreciated. Pen cannot

hilarity, irresponsible loungings, and
practical spirit of jesting that •‘obtains"
ready to seize on any odd cireumstnn-
oes in its licensed levity. A “cavalry^
man” comes rejoicing in immense top
boots, for which in fond prido he had
invested fully lorty dollars of pay; at
once the cry from an hundred voices
follows hitn along the line—“Come up
out’er them boots 1 come out I—too soon
to go into winter quarters! I know
you’re in thar 1—I see your arms slickin’
outl” A bumpkin rides by in nn un
commonly big hat, and is frightened
at the shout—“Como clown out’er that
hat!” Come down 1 “taint no use to
sayyounintup thr.r 1 I see your legs
hungin’ outl” A fancy staft’ officer
was horrified at the irreverent reception
of his nicely twisted moustache—as he
heard from behind innumerable trees
—“tako them mico out’er yer mouth 1
take ’em out! no use to say they nint
thar—see tlieir tails hangtn’ out 1 ”—
Another, sporting immense whiskers,
was urged to “Como oat of that bunch
of bar! I know you’re in thar I I see
) our cars a tvorkin’i” Sometimes a
rousing cheer is heard in the distance,
it is explained—“boys-lookout 1 here
comes old Stonewall” or an old hare,
“ono or tother’.’—they being about the
only individuals who invariably bring
down the house.
