'■ ° tn ,ertton. $i.po ; each inner had out on a writ of habeas corpus. They
are still in prison. A writ was sued out, but
the warden of the jail declared that he had
three days wherein to answer a summons,
and relused to produce thorn. Whereupon
it is slated that Judge Bartol, of the Court of
Appeals, ordered them to be immediately
brought before him.
Mr. Swann went do^Q to Washington
yesterday and had an interview with Mr.
Johnson and some of his Cabinet. The re-*
suit is not known, but whatever it is, if does
not seem to have liad the effect of inspiring
the Conservatives with , any courage. In
deed, the conspicuous cowardice manifested
by their leaders has won for them the
merited contempt of the entire community.
It is stated that it is intended to-morrow to
open polls for the special purpose of receiv-
ine Conservative votes, independently oi
those precincts under the control of the old
Commissioners, which will, of course, be
worked exclusively in the lladical interest.
This brilliant idea is said to have been the
offspring of Gen. Grant’s brain.
Mr. Swann’s course has excited the surprise
of every one. He has not generally been
suspected of cowardice. He certainly was
unscrupulous enough when he was in the
wrong, and violated law with a higher hand
than the Radical Police Commissioners. It
is surmised that his unusual position on the
side of law and order has disconcerted him,
as a cat is said to be embarrassed in a strange
garret. On the other hand, his friends are
disposed to throw the blame on the Presi
dent. They say that the Governor relied on
Mr. Johnson to help him out in the event of
a resistance to his authority. That this has
beejj successfully defied is a notorious fact,
but they say that the President refuses to
act. It is generally believed that he is satis
fied of the legality of Mr. Swann’s position,
but that, with his customary timidity, he is
afraid to interfere lest he should preiudice
the Northern vote. When a party leader
thus abandons bis friends in difficulty, it is
easy to foresee the end. The President has
lost ground rapidly here within the last few
days, and in a short time it will be impossi
ble to excite the smallest enthusiasm in his
siiermaii for Mexico, behalf. An opinion is growing that his
nv—Lieut. Ge i. Sherman amt : struggle against Congress will soon come to
xico. sailed t<>- a „ eu j j a ud that he will eithergoover to the
; Radicals or go down before them lor want
of nerve to maintain his point.
Interpret the cause of the fiasco as we may,
it is almost universally believed that the Con
servative cause in this city is lost. Among
the active sympathizers with the South but
little interest is taken in the question. The
leading men on both sides of the quarrel
have rivalled one another, in the years that
are past, in inflicting disabilities on all who
dissented from the government, and now
the men who have been disfranchised by
them, propose to let them tight out their lit
tle family fend by themselves—considering
it not very material whether they are tyran
nized over by seven thousand or by seven
teen thousand of the residents of Baltimore,
sinoe, in either case, they are governed by a
minority. It would doubtless have been pos
sible to get up a force of men who would
have been willing to storm the strongholds
of the Radical police, but the leaders of the
Conservatives had no stomach for so bold a
policy, which is manifestly the only one that
could save them. The probability is that
their course will lose them not only the city,
but the State. The Radical Commissioners
have come out with a proclamation in refer
ence to the election, and no Conservative or
ganization whatever exists, so the election will
go again by default. Troops are here, but
their presence serves only to overawe the
fighting men of the Conservative party, and,
if the polls are open, the voters of that side
will be afraid to come out.
Just as the mail closes, I learn from good
authority that Mr. Swann has made a com
promise" with the old Commissioners. His
friends are to be let out of jail; the Radicals
are to manage the election, graciously per
mitting the Conservatives one judge, one
clerk, and a rejected ballot-box at each pre
cinct. Mr. Swann’s ignominy is complete.
He was known to be destitute of principle
he is,now found to be devoid of courage.

A Radical Congressional ratification meeting was
held in the City Hail Park, Saturday, at which
Hiram Walbridge presided. A large cro^t collected,
drawn together mainly by the fact that Gen. Butler
was advertised to speak.
The scene ot confusion that ensued the moment
the Beast showed himself on the stand was indescri
bable. Cries of “spoons!” “put him out!” “how
are you cockeye?” “Wedon’t want to hear yon,” min
gled with groans and hisses which completely drown
ed the cheers of the friends of the meeting, came
from all sides, but more especially from the steps of
the City Hall. The police, under Captain Brackett,
used almost superhuman efforts to restore order, but
notwithstanding some dozen or twenty arrests were
made the uproar ati:l continued. Finally, after wait
ing quietly for the noise tc subside, the General ut-
tevapced to make himself fceard by those who were in
dose proximity to tho patform. He began by say
ing:
Fellow-Citizens—The issue is now before us,
whether the men—[Cries of “Spoons,” “spoons”!—
Who by force and fraud sought to overthrow the coun
try shall rule it—[Hisses and groans and so much con
fusion that Butler stopped speaking].
Billy Wilson, of the First ward—Never mind them,
General, they will be taken care of. There will be
some broken heads nere in a few moments.
Voice on the platform, encouraging the speaker.—
o on, General. They are only copperheads. [Groans
and cries of “put him out.”]
General Butler.—I said the issue before us was
whether the men who by force and fraud sought to
overthrow the country shall control its glorious desti
ny. [Groans, and three cheers for John T. Hoffman,
which were followed by three cheers for “Bell Butler”
from around the platform.]
Geu. Butler [coolly picking his teeth with a golden
tooth-pick, and looking quite complacently upnu tho
crowd]—Very well, you have taken vour timo and I
will take mine. [Criesof “good, good.”] •
A voice.—“Three cheers tier Governor Fenton,” re
sponded to by mingled cheers and groans.
HE IS STRUCK WITH AN APPLE.
General Butler—When this war was closed, [cries of
spoons,”] when the last rebel in the South had sur
rendered—
At this juncture, some one in the crowd threw an
apple at the speaker with unerring precision, striking
him fair in the abdominal region, and bringing the
speech to rather an abrupt termination. The incident
created a good deal of excitement on the platform, but
when Butler took the fruit in his hand and coolly com
menced eating it, and bowed to his antagonist as
though he had just been the recipient of a favor in
stead ol'Yn insult, he brought the house down, and
for a moment there was a better feeling in the crowd.
But it was only for a moment. Again the indignation
of the crowd broke forth in cheers for Hoffman and
groans for Butler. Five minutes probably elapsed,
during which time General Butler continued eating
his apple aud waiting for an opportunity to be heard.
ONCE MORE TO THE BREACH.
General Butler (straining his voice to the utmost, so
as to be heard)—Since I have been standing here
fellow-citizens, I could not help remembering tow
much quieter these fellows (pointing to the crowd on
the City Hall steps) were in 1804, when, instead of
having a traitor at the head of the government they
had an honest and true patriot, ant* when this City
was under the control of a magistral? who could con
trol it.
Here there was another outburst of indignation, and
cries of “spoons, spoons,” were heard on all sides,
winding up with three cheeis for Hoffman.
Voice on the platform—Go on, General.
General Butler—Oh, it is no use. They will tire by
aud by. I suppose. I am not a President or a Vice
President, that I want to pander to the vile prejudices
■of an angry crowd. Criep ot ‘•Spoons,” “Spoons,”
“Go borne,” aud loud groans still interrupted the
speaker. It was now half-past three o’clock, and the
speaker had been fully twenty minutes in endeavoring
to obtain an audienoe.
THE OPPOSITION GET UP A MEETING.
The effort to prevent General Butler from being
heard was, ao far, succesafuL A sallow complexioned
individual on the ateps of the City Hall then address
ed tho meeting in favor of Fox, the Democratic can
didate for Congress against Mr. Greeley, aud for
about ten minutes or so General Butler was compell
ed to remain silent.
General Butler (in sotto voce)—l wi4h we had a few
of our men here who were down in the Gulf with us,
and l would clean this crowd out in a very few uw-
menta.
Billy Wilson—There are a number of them in the
meeting, General, but they are powerless against
such odds.
HORACE COMES TO THE RESCUE.
Horace Greeley, in despair at the glowing prospect,
suggested to the Beast, as a last resort, that he ad
dress the reporters and people on the platform. But
the Beast was not going to be intimidated, but was
determined they should hear what he had to say.
THE BEAST 8HOW8 HIS TEETH.
He then continued his remarks am <1 the groat con
fusion—hooting, yelling and hissing—concluding as
follows:
Why, you poor fools, I have lac^d your superiors
Baltimore aud New Orleans: I have hung your bet
ters, and if you do not behave yourselves, I shall get
the chance to do the s:iiuo with you; I have seen a
great many more than yon, with arms in their hinds,

The New York Independent is not very
orthodox as a religious paper, nor yet very
sagacious as a political print; its financial
column, however, is in excellent repute.
Bank expansion and excessive currency
afloat in the moneyed centres are beginning
to create considerable uneasiness, the more
so, as business is by no means as brisk as tbe
plethora of greenbacks would seem to testify
and speculation demand. Alluding to these
topics, tbe Independent says;
“The limit of national bank currency,
viz. $300,000,000, has been reached ; but this
enormous amount of currency, in addition to
tbe greenback currency, is used as a basis for
bankiug loans to a serious, if not to an alarm
ing extent. The city bank loans alone are
$270,000,000 ; but every national bank in all
the States has made excessive loans in pro
portion to its capital aud currency issues
This stimulus to speculation has been most
fell in the prices of stocks; but it is also pro
portionately, though not so generally known,
in business and mercantile 'credits. Credit
has been extended in all directions, and the
general expansion has gone quite f*r enough
for safety. A contraction must come, sooner
or later.’’
The Lynchburg CVa.) News says the phe
nomena which usually presage, according to
the notions of the very observant in such
mr.uers, the approach of a bard winter, are
beconrng very marked as the season pro
gresses. Hives are overflowing with honey,
tbe husks of corn are declared to be of extra
thickness, and the furs of animals are pro
nounced exceedingly rich and heavy. It is
observed, too, that tbe squirrels are making
arrangements on an iucreaaed scale for the
storage of nuts. -

tee few and well-describing epithets iu order that yon
may understand that I neiiberlove nor bate jou, aud
that there iaan end to patience. No discussion—su, h
as shoU'd govern reasoning men—would profit here.
I saw at first that it was not to be hoped, and I deter
mined, after waiting in vain for the men who might
perhaps be but tne incidents of a crowd to withdraw,
that if order could not be restored, from that moment
I would speak tci Ibe men as they deserved, and in
language which they could understand, bec ause lamil-

attempt was made to cheer him, but the l&iDt applause

k BcNStTiox Novel in Real Life.—It is not oitcu,
says the Belfast. Ireland. Whig, that a man who bo-
giua hie * aroer by embezzlement turns out right in
the long ruD, and refunds with interest tbe amount
abstracted- but an instance of the kind, very remark
able in its character, has come to light in Liverpool.
Abont six or eight years ago, a young man, who had
been educated at Trinity College, Dubliu arrived in
Liverpool to push bis fortune. His conduct while at
tbe college had been so loose and wild that his parents
declined to have anything further tb do with him.
But he was clever, a good linguist, and apt to make
himself useful, and soon he was engaged as a corres
pondence clerk by an influential firm, m whose ser
vice he worked himself up to such a point of effleten-
cv that they increased both his pay and his responsi
bilities. At length. However, the “old Adam" asserted
itself and, in order to cover bis personal extrava
gance, the young man helped himself to bis emplot -
er’seash to the extent of £6,000. He. of course, him
self eloped, and all the ingenuity of the deteetive ofii-
cials could not disclose his whereabouts. Iu the
meantime the fugitive went to America, aud (as after
ward transpired) engaged himself to a well-known dry
gootfs merchant in New York, with whom he remained
until the outbreak of the American war. His mastci,
being an ardent patriot, offered to advance banilsome
suma of money to any of his clerks wlto would volun
teer for the war, aud the hero of this brief narrative
was one who accepted tho offer. He went through
some of the severest brushes of the campaign without
receiving a wound, fought at Fredericksburg, Seven
Pines, and other places, and held a subordinate com
mand during Shetmau’s great march. At the close of
the struggle he fell m love with and married tne
wealthy young widow of one of the Federal Generals
who w« killed at Gettysburg. After their marnago
the ladv wished to visit
little diffloultv in tho way—the £3,000. Ulltmateij,
however, it was decided that the wisest course would
be to refund the amount; und, to the debght of the
Liverpool Arm, they received by the last steamer an ei
der for the amount, with five per cent, mterost trom
the date of the cashier's elopement.
