It may safely be eaid that Udeli the first time Butler was ever fonght with a corruption fued.

A great deal la being aald now-a-daya abont General Grant’s C«iari*m, bnt however opin ion, msy differ on that point, tha “Scizinjitm' of tbe administration cannot b* doubted. Every few days, on a charge by aome anborned dark, that a tuatoeaa firm haa been attempting evade the revenue laws, an Imperial rescript issued and the firm's vaults, desks and drawers are forcibly entered and all ite private books and papers are seized and earned off. This wa* dose toPhelp*. Dodge A Co. It was done the other day to Platt A Boyd, and it hai been done in numerous mint Tbe more wa reflect npon it the more dag, gerous to liberty and aelf-proteeticn docs tbe assumption o! such a right or power on the pert of the government appear. It is not whit better tbsn the practloee, in this psrticu lur, of the Spanish Inquisition. Doubtless there is law for it, bnt that it is good law—law which ought to exist In a free oountry, aeems ton, impossible. No man will advance (ha plea that goTem. raent can compel anybody to bear witness against himself. But if a man oannot be broaghi into oonrt and compelled to give parol testimony against himself, how happens it that his private depoeitories can bo forced open, and his own written books, entries, memoranda and correspondence be bronght agilnat him? Doe* ibe feet that the words are written in stead of spoken defeat tba application of principle vital to personal security and freedom 7 No man ean read tho story of these secret noselnga aod smiling,—the operation, of ear* rupted clerks and aooonntants, bribed by the hope o' pay as spies and informers—these oper ations by pnmps and eve droppers, rewarded for tbeir treachery and bad faith by dividing great spoils with tbe ltevetraa officers, and-all followed np by theta grand swoops npon booka and private papers by foroe and lock-bretkiog, withont feeling bis gorgo rite—withont seeing that he bimaelf and all the secrets of his life, which be proposes shall die with him, msy be dragged before the pnblio at any minute, when, ever a malicious informer may hope to gratify his spite or greed of gain, by lodging assailed information. Surely there ought to be no power in a free government io break into a man's premises and aerve and uao hla private papers against himself any more than to seize hi* person and oompel him by pain, and penal* ties to give evidence against himself. Tho one praotica ia as fatal to private and personal rights as tha other. Last Week’s Cotton Figures. The New York Commercial and Financial Ohrnniole.of Saturday, reports receipts of the seven days during last Friday night, 15th, at 10,581 bales against 10.C31 bales last week, 12,- 255 tales the previoas week and 12,C1S bales three wetks since, making tbe total receipts ainoe tbe first of Bept., 1872, 3,597,739 bales against 2,714.435 bales for tbs ssme period of 1861 72, showing an increase ainoe September I, 1872, of 883,303 bales.

WzxTnan UirosTj r.x Teuobxpu.—Consid erable rain, aaya tba Utuonteto, has fallen the first balf of tha week in the Gulf and Atlantic States, though none of oar reports speak of there being uuy tevere storm corresponding with tbe one which bee visited thta section; tn fact, with one or two exceptions, no oompUlnt ia made of any ill effects from the rain, the main damage referred to being that from cater* pillars in certain eeolionr; otherwise tbe reports are more favorabto. At New Orleans it has rained on more than balf the days of the week —showery. Our correspondent btates that tboy are having too much rain there. Bain is also the latter V«t* of 'fh‘4 W««K Dcin'g- 0 r^Ws, nleaaant; crop reports are e»id to ho u— r* vorable, only very limited injury being as yet • dons by tho caterpillars. They have bad rain on throe days at Betas; caterpillars are increas ing and doing mnoh damage on some plaeea where pontons have not boon applied. Ibe same report of damige from oaterpillara we have received from oar Montgomery correspond ent: it has rained on two days at Macon. At Columbus they have had rain on fonr days, though it has been pleasant and clear tbs I»t'or part of the woek. They also had rain the first half of the week, and dear weather since at Savannah; crop reports are said to be more favorable. It has rained on two days at Angnste; tho weather is now pleaeant. Oar Charleston correspondent does not state how many days it has rained thoro. bnt says that they are having too ranch rain. At Memphis it bas rained on three day*, and orop reports are more favorablo. At Nashville they have bad one heavy rain, which waa mneh needed; the orop ia developing promisingly. The thermom eter lias averaged at Memphis 80; Savannah, 81; Mobile, 81; hlaoon, 84; Colnmbns, 80. Middling uplands were quoted in Liverpool on Friday at 8J1, against 9; Us', year and 8 j to 91 the year before. The New York market was generally inactive thronghont tho week, at a decline. On Friday there was a little revival, bnt prioes were weak. Some half a toon bale, of new cotton are noted, generally abont a week behind last year. Halstead on Ctcsarlaiq. Tho Herald has been interviewing the Cin cinnati editors on C*»riam. Marat Halstead maintain, that there ia not timber enough in Grant to mako a C»mr—as for illustration : “Mr. Halstead—It lakes a man of genins and enerry to make a Carter, and snoh men are not plenty. If Ben Butter had been a great raib- tary encores he might have beoome a Ctetar; bnt ho had none, and had no military (sanity, so ho U no Cottar. The fact t*. wo got through our war without developing a Croat or any re markable genins on eitner aide. "Ilerald Correspondent—Yon uon t seem to think that Gen. Grant Is ranch of a Cmiar then ? "Mr. HaUtead—No, air, I do not; I don t think he knows enough to be C*rar either. "Herald Correspondent—^What do yon think of bis third term prospect? "Mr. Halstead—'Very little prospect he has, I believe Ho can't get the nomination from hto ova party, and he will find it ont in good time and draw off in favor of Phil Sheridan, who will be tho military candidate. ilerald Correspondent—Yon believe this? Mr. Halstead—Yes, eir, I do. Tho Demo- era tic party can elect him by adhering to its old organiattion. Blaine and Morton are tho oivil a-tpiracts, bnt neither will be able to make it. The very boat man to boat the administra tion candidate, probably, ia the man who made Grant but didn’t stay at home to take care of him—tha Fariaian, Waahbnrne. "Herald Correspondent—Let me ask why yon thick Grant’s party will not renominate bln ? ••Mr. Il&Ute&d—Grant’s conduct since bia election ha, disgusted tbe leading men of the putty I mean the ambitions and leading men. \VtUon and Noyfea, for instance, who went np and down the oonntry howling and tearing their throats ont for him, are bitterlv disappointed at Grant’s obtusenees and indifferency in not seeing that to their aimoat snperhnman effort* and not his own special mer »taw*a he indebted for tho success of his seeond candidacy. Grant believed that his re election was duo to the migbtv magic of hianame, and hU oold egotism baa dwplv wounded tbe feelings of his warnest patty friends. As I said, it is donbtfn if the civil aspirants go through, bnt they '" U the pleasure of electing the lieutenant C en era!, for Grant undoubtedly will have the po^er to name hie successor.” Tba Savannah News bears a rumor “that Dramatic Oiub of ten members, embracing tbe beat amateur talent of this city, baa been or ganized for the purpose of visiting Jtaoon du ring tbe Slate Fair and giving three perform aaoao. Ox Friday lost Misses Agnes McMahon, Ag- no* Brown, Ella Kennedy, and Ann Brodwiek, of Stvannab, wers reoeired into the order the Sisters of Mercy. Txz Chronicle and Sentinel says Ur. Lewis E. Grouse, of Angnste, has written 3,016 words in a legible band on a postal card. Yell, vot it ? What profit it it to Mr. G. or anybody else? Worm Ksowrxo.—Under this head, tho Chronicle and Sentinel has the following: Worm Khowixo.—Few people perhaps are aware that, by the lew of the State m party renting a house for twelve months la oompellod to pay the rent for that entire time, although tbe boose should catch fire and burn to tho ground in A week after bia taking possession aa tenant. We beard of twoinitanoes yesterday where tho question came np, a party in each contending that the rent could not be recovered under the oirenmetanoe mentioned. In one the gentlemen to bolding was so satisfied tn regard to hia portion that ha made a bet of one hum dred dollars to five that be was right. The mat ter was referred to a lawyer, and of oonrse de cided against the party bcltting tits hundred dollars. Io tha other a gentleman, while heartily admitting the foot, contended that if a note stipulated! that it was givsn "for value received in honaa rent,” the amonnt which it represented could not be recovered the house for the rent of whioh it was giTen burned down before the tenant had oocupied it tbe stipulated time. The bst in thia inrtanoe waa somewhat smaller than tho other, being only a couple of watermelons. The question was referred to a prominent lawyer, who de cided that nnder the law the tenant would hare to pay tho full amonnt of the reat, notwith standing the clause In the note, above stated. The language of the Code of Georgia is very plain npon the point. The following is the section: Sec. 2267. The destruction cf a tenement by five, or the loss of posseesion by any easnalty not caused by the landlord, or from default of his title, aha'l not abate the rent contracted to be paid. Tbe reports of the Supreme Court of Georgia contain a nnmber of decisions npon this point. In one case carried np, a young man in Savan nah bad rented a room for a year in a building which caught fire and waa destroyed. Tho yonng man waa very aotive in saving shelving and other thing! attached to the freehold, but his landlord, notwithstanding, claimed the rent agreed to be paid by him for the entire year. The young man refused to pay it, woe sued by his landlotd, tho cane tried in the Superior Court, and afterwards carried np to the Su preme Oourt, which rendered a decision in the landlord's favor.

Lytle, the author of the beantifnl verses nnder the above title, as a chivalrous soldier and gentleman, a correspon dent of the Houston Home Journal shows that Gen. L. does not at all deserve them by tho recital of the following faots: He says the first brigade of Federal soldiers that entered Win chester, Tennessee, daring the war waa oom manded by Gen. L., and that as soon as tbe brigade bad camped the work of robbery was commenced. Iy posts London a million dollars annually to water her streets. ’The principal part of tbe work is undertaken by a few Urge contractor*, who employ some 1,500 hortes and carta, with as many men, for thirty weeks in the year, at an outlay of about throe pounds week for each horse, cart, and man. It ia contended, how- ever, that the whole of thte watering ean be so- complished in a far more effectual and advan tageous manner by a system of permanently laid pipes, and measures have been Uken for introducing them.

Open threats were made that they would burn tbe ■own and murder the inhabitants, merely be- eause the county, Franklin, had in 1861 voted unanimously for eeoossion. Watches, jewelry aod silver ware were in every instance taken, and ladies and gentlemen, who dared to protest were invariably insulted and abused. The stores and offices were all broken opeo and rob- bed, or tbe owners were forced to notook them the murderous ruffians. Too oounty olfiees e.fre mS^en auTi^ ^J**!*^ ** plunder only ceased when there was nothing eft to steal. The writer of this artiole was in Winchester, a thirteen year old boy at the time, and was an eye-witness to tbe above outrages. No redress was offered by General Lytle, al though tho people oompliined bitterly, no punishment was irfl otod, and the barbarous acts were undoubtedly committed with the ex- press ar implied consent of the commander. Tux Atlanta polios made a raid npon tho street-walkers Monday night, and osptnred a dozen or fifteen of them. They were locked np, and will be prosecuted on a charge of va grancy.

Grant Will Not be a Candidate. The statement is anthoritatively made that Genoral Grant dots not wish to be elected to tbe Preaidency for a third term, at we presume the people have no desire thst he should be. It is possible that he would administer the gov ernment as wisely and aa well through a third as through a seoond term; bnt no one, least of aU General Grant himself, deems it wise to es tablish a preoedent which neither the present nor the prospective exigencies of the country would jnstify.—Albany Earning Journal. The Craning Journal ia a bitter Bsdical paper, bnt seems to be rather behind the times in this matter. It baa evidently aot been “ seen ” by the three-term folks. Perhaps it will sing another tone when it has more light. Grant is jtut as sure to intrigna for, and very probably to get, another renomination as he lives. All the signs g> to show that he wants it—none plainer In our estimation than the utterance of Harper's Weekly, which we published a few dap since.

From Mr. Beochor’s Christian Union.) First—Find ont if there is any fish in the river to whioh yon ore going; if bo, get some one who knows the water to show you where the fi:h lie: and when he Bhows thim to you, don’t yon show yourself to them. Sooond—Don't imsgine, if the fish does not dart away, that he has not Been yon; on the contrary, he is very likely devoting hia wlioto attention to yon, and preparing to start the mo ment danger is imminent. Third—If yon are fishing with a fly, and yon pass it neatly three times over him, and he re- fuses it, you need not wait any longer; he has seen yonr line of invitation, ard does not in tend to aome. Fourth—If yon are above a fish when yon hook him, get below him as soon as you oan ; for Jf yon pnll him one instant against the stream, and he is a heavy flab, he will break his hold. . . , Fifth—Never throw a tong line when a short one will answor. Sixth—Never mind what is said abont ''play ing your fish till he is tired:’ - put him in your ba-iket as soon as yon oan. ... j Seventh—Remember that every thing depends npon the way yon begin yonr aeqnaintanoe. if yon oan prevail on a fish to gc d iwh the stream a little way with yon, yon wilt afterward have no dIffitally in persnadiDg him to let yon have the pleasure of seeing him to dinner. To these exaellent maxima I beg leave to add one of Mr. Stoddart’a, especially intended for bachelors, yonog and old; “Never fall in love with a woman by the water side; there are simi- tions in which every woman looks an angel.” Op ell the odd deaths in the world, this re ported from India is certainly the oddest: A native, while catching fish in a tank, pnt the head of one in his mouth and bit it, as tho fish waa rather troublesome in the matter of wrig- ging. Suddenly ono of the sharp pointa in the back fin stuck in his hand; he opened his month to call for help, and the fish giving a quick plunge, jumped down his throat and there firmly stack. It was only taken onf, and by small pieces, after he had been carried to the hospitaL He was so exhausted that he died as soon as it was removed. Poou Dzlcokd CnzErxaL—The Empress En genie Is oredited with saying: “Men are easily deluded; they are duped oa t very hand; the same arts succeed with all of them, and the woman ia a genius who airikes out a new way to # get the better of them.” Hobx Gold.—The report is that the X^llaw atone region ti iaamng.qy.pr with gold and likely to prove more productive than any other au - riferons region of the United States.
