FRIDAY MORNING. SEPT. 13. 1867.
11. It is the duty of the military authorities
in this District to secure to the people the ut
most freedom of speech and of the press consist
ent with law ; not to restrict either. No satis
factory execution of the late acts of Congress i>
practicable unless this freedom is secured and
its exercise protected by the usual legal means.
in No officer or soldier in this command
mill hereafter interfere with newspapers or
speakers on any pretense whatever.
[Gen. Pope’s Okder, June 3d.
“ Freedom of speech and of the press , educa
* tion, equality before the law , and in political ,
rights and privileges, are the essentials of any j
satisfactory reconstruction in the South."
| Gen. Pope’s Letter to Gen. Grant.
ANOTHER DOCUMENT.
The Congressional Committee have flood
ed the South with catechisms, speeches,
tracts and party puffs ad nauseam. As will
be seen in a sub-editorial of this paper, the
members of that infamous cabal have used
the money at their command not only to
proselytize the negroes and mean whites by
issuance of Radical trash, but have an eye to
the pockets of their Southern disciples,
through liberal supplications in the interest
of the Washington Chronicle.
The example set by the Central Commit
tee at Washington has been vigorously fol
lowed by little cliques and factions support
ing certain Presidential aspirants. Mr.
Schuyler Colfax is one of these vaulting
candidates for Executive preferment. As
long as General Grant was silent and
popular, poor Colfax knew he had not
the ghost of a chance; nay, the spectre of a
leg of mutton had more hopes than he had.
Since General Grant has been, to some ex
tent, dropped by all parties and of only
possible servie: to the Radicals who infi
nitely prefer Mr. Chase, giddy Colfax
sneaks out of his covert to proffer his
claims and, incidentally, kick the great lion
lie deems so harmless. In order to accomplish
his purposes, he shows that he has learned
a trick or two from the Schenck commit
tee and straightway issues or causes to be
issued a circular of rough hints and sprawl
ing indications. This precious document
runs as follows!
Sixteen Reasons wbv oub Republican
Party should not bun Gen. Gbant fob
President in 1868.
1. He has all he deserved at the bauds of the
American people.
2. He could not deliver an Inaugural Address.
3. Because no Democrat has succeeded for the
past quarter of a century as President of the
United. States.
4. Because at this peculiar period in the history
of our great country we need an ABLE AND
EXPERIENCED STATESMAN at the
“ White House.”
6. Because One Hundred Thousand Graves and
Four Million of Freedmen DEMAND A RE
PUBLICAN PRESIDENT AND VICE
PRESIDENT.
(J. He is now and always has been a Democrat ,
and has never indorsed the Republican Party.
7. Because he lias proved a failure in every
capacity outside of the military.
8. Heclaims to have no knowledge of Polities
or National affairs.
y. Because all the Democratic and Rebel papers
indorse him.
10. He has followed our drunken Democratic
\Johnson in all his Rebellious rows against
Congress and our party.
11. Because he has insulted the Republican
Party by indorsing the removal of ti>o ifcm
tary of War and accepting thft position him
self.
12. We hqve one hundred better men for Presi
dent.
13. Because all parties claim him as belonging
to their parts, v
We Patter touted
15. Because the Democrats and Rebels have no
other available candidate.
16. Becauss Illinois gave us IMMORTAL LIN
COLN, and Indiana offers OUR MOST
AVAILABLE CANDIDATE.
AMERICAN REPUBLICANS.
SUBLEASE POST THIS UP.
Now, is not this a modest dish to set be
fore the popular will. As a venomous at
tack upon Gen. Grant it surpasses any
thing of the kind that has appeared in the
most rabid journals opposed to the chief
military man of the North.
We do not pretend to be the champion of
the General, but believe him to be a thous
and times preferable to little Colfax. This
miserable demogogue having helped make
military rule possible and supreme, affects
to snub it and its instruments. He has sud
denly discovered that the “ nation” wants
a Statesman and not a Dragoon. We agree
with the gad-fly that the country is hungry
and thirsty for a Statesman; but it will make
a grave mistake if it suppose the qualities
that combine to make a great Constitutional
ruler or Republican President reside in the
insect soul of the “ available candidate
from Indiana.”
POT AND KETTLE.
Colonel Hillyer, in his scorching letter
to Thurlow Weed, says :
“ I have only one more word to say. You
state that I am said to be 1 implicated in frauds.’
Your age alone saves you from my branding
you as a liar. After an experience of six
months in office , I can proudly soy—what I
should not have been able to say had 1 been
controlled by you— that my hands are entirely
clean."
It is a glorious thing to show that
Hillyer considers it an exceptional miracle
that his hands have been kept clean, during
«ix months of office holding in New York.
But, is it not a little damaging to his sub
lime nature when he candidly confesses
that, had he not steered clear of Thurlow
Weed, he would have been obliged to suc
cumb to the thieving propensities of his
clansmen ? All honor, however, to Hill
yer for what he has done or what he says
he has.
That Thurlow Weed differs very mate
rially from the conclusions arrived at by
thp Colonel, and thinks he puts too flue a
point upon his own spotlessucss, can be
judged by a rejoinder. Referring to the
gallant Colonel, Weed says :
“For more than a year he beleagured ray
door as persistently as any of the hundred needy
men who were simultaneously pressing me to
find some visible means of support for them.—
His importunities became irksome; but I en
sured them out of respect for Gen. Grant.”
If this statement be correct, Hillyer is
taking his spite out of T. W. for ancient
neglect.
Having, as aforesaid, a kind corner in his
heart for General Grant, Weed treats of
the revenue frauds, and says :
“ I deemed it my duty to inform Gen. Grant
that his friend Colonel Hillyer Is alleged to be
implicated.”
Having indulged in several sharp passes at
the plucky Colonel, the indignant and dis
gusted Thurlow disposes of him as fol
lows:
“ I need not waste time or words in replying
to the personal abase of a sturdy office beggar,
for more than u I
year, and whoso language, if he would protect i
more and consume less whisky, might be better j
suited to the character of a person whose only <
claim to consideration fs that of having been
‘on General Grant’s staff.’” ,
This is more than Pickwickian abuse and, ,
if reliable, proves to the public at large that, j
“ It. Is not a toes up,
If MoHßiip kick Barry ,
Or Barry kick Monsup.”
Death of Wm. Gregg, Sr.—On Wednes
day afternoon, the public heard with re
gret that Wm. Gregg, Sr., of Graniteville,
was dangerously ill; on Thursday morn
ing the sad intelligence of his death created
universal and profound sorrow. Wc learn
that the immediate cause of his demise was
inflammation of the bowels, superinduced by
exposure in directing the repair of the fac
tory dam.
Not more than ten days ago vve saw him,
with robust health and frame erect, wear
ing the honors of a noble life. He appear
ed, on that occasion, full of enthusiasm, full
of vigor—his face radiant with vitality and
his eyes luminous with intelligence. We
thought how favorably he compared, in his
grand though venerable proportions, with
many a younger person; how strong the
principle of action and progress; how
bounteous the promise of comiug years
that were to make his great schemes prac
tical. And now, like a druid oak in the
path of the lightning, he has faHeu amid
his brethren and lies prone and motion
less.
Mr. Gregg was, at the time of his death,
President of the Graniteville Manufactu
ring Company and, we should judge, about
sixty-five years of age. Time had dealt
leniently with him, and he bore his years
without flinching; for his rules of con
duct were temperate and simple, and his
daily walk truly patriarchal. He was a
man of considerable wealth, gained by his
own exertions. Emphatically a worker, he
inspired others with energy and, in some
respects, was the most magnetic man we
have known. The village of Graniteville
and the Factory were his creations and
special pride. In him the manufacturing com
comunity has lost its most prominent South
ern representative; and the people of the
village must mourn a benefactor and
friend. In yielding themselves to the dis
pensation of Providence that removes so
valuable and enterprising a man, the fami
ly and Mends of the deceased have the
rare consolation of knowing that he was
not only full of years, but full of honors
and all good graces.
The funeral services will be performed
this morning, at 9 o’clock, at the Granite
ville cemetery, in the midst of the people
he loved so well.
The Amnesty Proclamation. —The
New York Tribune , referring to President
Johnson’s new amnesty proclamation, re
marks :
We were in favor of a sweeping amnesty
when Mr. Johnson was raving and roaring
thrice a day that “ treason was a crime, and
traitors must be punished.’’ We are in favor
of it now, and would gladly have every peace
ablo, well-disposed man in the Soutli assured
that no harm will befall him because of his
share in the rebellion so long as he deports
himself as a good citizen should. Let them
who were rebels feel and know that they may
plant and till, build and trade, buy lands and
sell them, without fear of confiscation or mo
lestation. So far as President Johnson’s new
proclamation teuds to secure this end, it has
our hearty approval.
If Greeley can afford to endorse the
proclamation, the Southern Radicals ought
W lie gCllt'lUlW CllUUgll tv vuvlvrt,* ClitinM
ley. But, Greei-ky, like his Southern co
adjutors, evidently means that this people
can “ plant, till, build, trade, buy lands and
sell them ” —anything but vote agaiust the
Radical party- The chief end of man,
soul but to saw his
HHRpfiys that party be the
, [ Radical party.
Revolution. —Radical journals at the
South are emphatic in their declarations
that Congress will not submit to the Consti
tutional proclamations of President John
son; they strive, in the same breath, to
fasten the guilt of inciting revolution upon
| the Conservative papers. That’s an old
j trick of malefactors. Resolved upon war,
; or pretending to be, in case of defeat in pol
i itics, they vehemently and basely denounce
innocent men as incendiaries and strife-pro
vokers. It is a siy game, but a foolish one.
If any war should grow out of present per
plexities, the Southern Conservatives will
have nothing to do with it; but, from the
organization and drills of the Grand Army
! of the Republic, Loyal Leagues, etc., the
Southern Radicals seem determined to have
; a sanguinary Anger in the pie, although
that pie should be baked a thousand miles
away.
Thinking About It.— Prior to the Cali
fornia election aud recent heavy losses in
Vermont and Maine, Radical journals,
North and South, were blatant for the ab
solute rights of the majority and the total
extinction of the privileges of the minority.
They do not pipe on so high a key, since
the Great Reaction has been proved some
thing more substantial than a delusion.
Six or eight months hence, all the Radical
papers, North and South, will be clamorous
for the very rights they recently attempted
to destroy or deny. We hope the Conser
vatives will give them a chance to be heard ;
though it is of universal application that
only the noble, though misguided, can ap
preciate favors magnanimously bestowed.
A Stevens Opinion. —C. L. Vallandig
ham made a speech at. Ripley, Ohio, one
day last week, in which he said he had seen
a letter from Thad. Stevens to President
Johnson, asking for the release of Clement
C. Clay, in which Stevens said that no man
could be legally aud constitutionally con
victed of treason, and that, therefore, the
sooner these men were let go the better.
Oh! That Liver.—A Lexington (Ky.)
paper says General Thomas was in that
town a few days since, looking stout and
rosy and weighing about two-hundred and
twenty-five pounds averdupois, and that he
behaved himself very much like a gentle
man, and did not make any harangues to
the negroes.
Good for Montana.— ln rejoicing over
California, many persons have neglected
Montana. The Great Reaction is visible
even there. The Democratic candidate for
Congress has been overwhelmingly elected.
The same party has twenty-seven majority
in Territorial Council.
“We are Coming, Father Abraham.”—
The Columbus Sun is informed upon good
authority that Joseph Williams, on his re
cent speaking tour in Alabama, succeeded
in converting some three thousand negroes
from Radicalism to Conservatism.
Dead. —Among the victims of the yellow
fever at Fort Morgan, hear Mobile, is
Lieutenant Breckinridge, son of the Rev.
Robert J. Breckinridge, and consin of
General Breckinridge.
Growling. —The Tribune is not pleased
with the manner of distributing documents
pursued by the immaculate Congressional
Committee. It says:
“We are Informed that among the ‘ docu
ments ’ sent out by the Republican Committee
of Congress to enlighten the South are many
gorgeously illuminated posters of Forney’s
Washington Chronicle. We dare say It would
do the Southerners somo good to read the
Chronicle, though it may not help them much
to read the posters ; hut we suggest that this is
not exactly the sort of documents which we
contribute our money to circulate. Col. For
ney had better pay for his advertising out ol
his own pocket.”

Conversation with a Radical Editor.
John Hardy!
“ Here, sir.”
Stand up in that chair, sir.
“Yes, sir.”
Pull off your pants, John.
“ Please, sir, I’d rather not. People will
laugh at my legs, sir.”
They shan’t laugh at your legs, John. Off
with your pants.
“ Can’t do it, sir.”
What! Ah, John, we shall have to try
what the ruler can do.
“I’ll pull ’em off, sir. There, sir.”
Stand up straight, Joliu, and stop turning
about in your chair.
“ Please, sir, the flies keep crawling over
my legs so I can’t stand still.”
John Hardy!
“ Sir.”
Are you a rascal or an honest man ?
“ I am a rascal, sir. But please don’t make
me tell it.”
Are you .a d—d rascal, John?
“ I expect to be, when I die, sir, a very
d—d rascal.”
John, what ever put you iuto the notion
of starting a daily paper V
“To serve the interests of the country.”
Mind, John, the ruler is not far off.
“ I started a paper as a spigot in the mo
ney chest of that pompous ass, Dick Bus
teed.”
What did you promise Dick Busteed in
in return for his heavy expense of running
a pa[>er with you as editor, John?
“O, I just told him I would put him up
for Vice-President.”
How did Dick behave, John, when you
made the proposition ?
“He jumped out of his chair, halloed
‘ God save the Republic,’ and after dashing
round the room two or three times, he said
he had been often told he was like old man
Napoleon, and he thought on that account
he would make a good Vice-President.”
John, have you no shame about you at
all, that you can play so cruel a joke on a
good friend as you ha\e practised on Dick
Busteed, by putting him up for Vice-Presi
dent ?
“ Shame ! What is that, sir ?”
We shall not stop to explain now, John.
To what extent have you bled “ poor Rich
ard ” up to this date ?
“To the small amount of five hundred
f dollars a week, sir. You know it takes
money to run a paper in these hard times—
particularly such a paper as mine is.”
Do you expect to run your paper in that
way forever ?
“ Lord, no. sir. I have ordered a dozen
probate judges to send their printing to
me. Honest people are ordered to support
such rascals as I am nowadays. That’s
the reason I am so hot for reconstruc
tion.”
Take up your pants there, John, aud
empty their pockets between your feet.
There. Now tell us what keys those are
we see.
“ This one, sir, is the private key to a
bar-room. This one again lets me into a
gambling house, where I go to eat supper
and wait on Dick Busleed. These others
let me into houses I’d rather not speak of
please, sir.”
“ What is that dirty piece of paper there,
John? It seems to be a letter. Read it,
sir.” (Reads.)
“ Office State Sentinel— Dear Judge :
The campaign is getting on finely here, but
the question is often asked where is Busteed
now ? One blast upon his own tingle horn
is worth a thousand men. Your investment
in the Sentinel is the best thing you ever
did. 1 have drawn on you for live thousand
dollars more, juot t n t<«pp tne paper up till
I can order in all the official printing in the
State.
“ Yours, till deatli, &c., &c.”
There is another letter there, John, read
jt.
/ “(Office Static Sentinel —Dear Figures :
k Your favor has been received. We are
pretty much in the same flx here. The d—d
niggers are getting suspicious and close fist
ed. I don’t think they’ll pay as well in fu
ture as they have done heretofore. If I could
just use the cow-hide on some of their black
hides I would soon teach them that their
money belongs to loyal white men. Pope’s
order has come just in time. I have bled
Dick nearly dry. I want to get a few thou
sand more out of him and then give him
time to recover a little. Does it never
trouble you to think what a d —d rascal
you are ? I’ve got so I don’t mind it, my
self. In fact, I never sleep well at night
! now unless I have swindled somebody the
j day before.
“ Your brother rascal, &c., &., &c.”
There is still another paper there, John,
what is it ?
“ Please, sir, I’d rather not read that.”
What is it, John ?
“O, its just a little trifle I wrote—some
! lines.”
What! Is it possible that you are a poet,
, John? Read it, sir. [Reads]
i ODE TO EON. RICHARD BUSTEED.

“ O, Richard Busteed, mighty man,
The greatest Judge in all the lan’,

To make you next Vice-President.
While you are quaffing spartlir.g wine,
And living lilgb and dressing fine,

“ There are some men who me begrudge
My friendship true big-bellied Judge,
But from thy side I’ll never budge.
So long as you can do me good ;
While you are big and I am little,
I’ll be the dog to lick your spittle.
The pot to curse your neighbor’s kettle.
To shed ray sweat but not my blood.”
Why, John, you are quite a poet, indeed.
“0,1 just struck them lines off in no
time. Would you like to hear some more
of my poetry, sir?”
No, John, not to-day. You may get down
from the chair now.
“ Please, sir, may I put on my pants
again ?”
Yes, put them ou ; and confound you, for

Pennsylvania Politics.
Harbißbubg, Septombar 6.
As there is no Governor to be elected for
Pennsylvania, nor no members of Congress, on
the second Tuesday in October, the interest in
the coming election centres upon the office of
Judge of the State Supreme Court, and upon ,
this the canvass is now going vigorously 911. —
Personally considered, tho candidates of both
Republican and Democratic parties staud about
even in the estimation of the general public,
and, apart from the very wide margin in the
political opinions of both gentlemen,- they
would probably be regarded with equal favor
as jurists and men of unblemished character.—
The office is an important oue, inasmuch as the
term is for fifteen years. The vacancy occurs
by the expiration hy limitation of the term of
Hon. George W. Woodward. The Democrats
have selected as their candidate George M.
Sharswood, of Philadelphia, and presiding
Judge of the District Court in that city and
county—a lawyer of unquestionable ability—
I and extremely popular in Philadelphia, not
only with his own party, but with the citizens
i generally. Throughout the State, also, he is
; well known, and is regarded as a Democrat of
the strictest constitutional kind. The Republi
can nominee is Judge H. W. Williams, of Pitts,
burg, an emigrant from New England, who is
said to be not at all popular ontside bis own
district, and carrying with him into the contest
some very enrions ideas of the duties of a
judge. Part of the platform upon which he
was nominated is contained in one of the reso
lutions adopted by the Republican convention
held at Williamsport in June, which declares
that it is the duty of a judge to decide on the
bench according to the political opinions of the
majority—that is to say, to decide with the
party who elected him. This declaration, upon
which Judge Williams goes before the people,
lias rather shocked the memliersof the legal pro
fession. They adhere to the old fashioned prin
ciple that a judge should decide according to
law, and not according to politics. This plank,
so lioldly thrust into the Republican platform,
may therefore prove a very weak one. It is
only a part, however, ol the Jacobin policy of
the Radicals. As an oflset to this, the Republi
cans present. tbc dissenting opinion of Judge
Sharswood in the District Court in February,
1864, in tbc case of Boric against Troll, where
lie declared the act of Congress of February 25,
1802, making greenbacks a legal tender, uuMioii
stitutional. This decision, cry out
Means, touches the pocket ol every maffwo
owns a five dollar lull. It is an
trine, and shows that Judge Sharswood fN
to tiis old nullification ideas of the CaJW’nn
time. They make much capital out of ij.
calculate to use it extensively against Judge
Sharswood. The Democrat*, respond that the
Judge’s opinion lias been '•>
his opponents. That lie decided, as an ■jUjUt* /
and just man should, that contracts I
a gold basis could not be liquidated -/

The Return from Salzburg ami Popular Re
ceptions bp the Way—His Majesty Defines His
Position — What France Wants and What She
Defends.
.By the steamship City of Baltimore we'have
written mail accounts of the reception to Na
poleon and Eugenie in the manufacturing dis
tricts of France on their return from Salzburg,
with reports of the speeches delivered hy the
Emperor at Arras and l.ille, which have beeu
already summarized in our cable dispatches.
The report says : Napolecn, while cn route to
Paris, ou bis return from Salzburg, had been
making speeches in 6ome of the provincial cities
whicn attract attention. In response to an ad
dress from the Mayor of Arras lie said :
You are righttobave confidence in the future.
It is only weak governments who seek in
foreign complications to divert attention from
troubles at home. But he who derives liis
streugtli from tlie great body of the natiou has
only to do liis duty and to satisfy tho permanent
lutercsts of the country; and, while holding
aloft the national flag, we should not nllow our
selves to be drawn away by intemperate, im
pulses, however patriotic they may be. I thank
you for the sentiments you have expressed
towards the Empress and our son. Be assured
that they share my devotion for France, and
that their most ardent wish is to put an,end to
all misery and alleviate all misfortunes, , •
Dispatches from Lille state that their
ties were received in that town with eulhfHiasm,
and passed through the streets and botwVaids
In an open carriage. ■jp-
The lollowiiig is the text of the roplpWde
by tho Emperor to the address presented by the
Mayor of Lille. lie said:
YV.lieu some years ago I came for the first
time to visit the Department of tliqjjlord,
everything smiled upon my wishes,.JT had
just espoused the Empress, and, I maiyyay, I
had also just wedded France, before,eight
millions of witnesses. Order was restored,
political passions were lulled to rest, and I
foresaw for the country a new era of gifctncss
and prosperity. At home the unioiMpisting
among all good citizens presaged the peaceful
dawn of liberty abroad. I saw our glorious
flag protecting every cause of civilizing justice.
During tbo last fourteen years many-of my
hopes have been rcalhMtf, and grpuu-jfeo^ss
lias been aceomplish<4BJ|.)ark spots,'AHPiPr,
have darkened our horizon ; but even If good
fortune has not dazzled me, *0 transient re
verses will not discourage me. How should I
be discouraged when I see from one end of
France to the other the people meeting the
Empress and myself with acclamations, in
which are unceasingly associated the name of
our sou. To-day Ido not come here only to
celebrate a glorious anniversary in the capital
of ancient Flinders. I also come to learn
| your wants, to heighten the courage of some,
; to confirm the confidence of all, and to en
• deavor to increase the prosperity of this great
| department by still further developing its agri
j culture, manufactures and commerce. You
; will aid me, gentlemen, in this noble task, but
: you will not forget that the first condition of
the prosperity of a nation like ours is to pos
j sess the consciousness of its own strength, and
not allow itself to be depressed by imaginary
fears, but to rely upon the wi.dom and patriot
ism of the government. The Empress, touched
by the sentiments which you express, unites
with me in thanking you for your warm and
sympathetic welcome.
The London News 6ays the Emperor Na
poleon’s reported speeches at Arras and Lille
make a very welcome and desirable sequel to
the unreported conversation at Salzburg, and
trusts they will succeed in allaying the irrita
tion of the Prussian press, and the snspicion of
tho German people.
Tho London Times remarks that though the
expressions in the Emperor’s two speeches
have the usual vagueness of the imperial style,
they aro undoubtedly peaceable in their tenor.
The language of a part of the French press
gives sufficient reason that warlike intentions
should be explicitly denied, and the London
Times believes that the Emperor’s sincere wish
was to remove the disquietude that his recent
Salzburg journey bad caused. It would be to
belie bis sagacity to believe that he intends to
precipitate a gigantic conflict with forty millions
Germaus.
Morganatic Marriages. —Every body has
heard the term “ morganatic marriages,” and
many people suppose that marriages of this
kind are a species of concubinage in which the
kings and princes of Europe aro fond of indulg
ing. This is not the case, however. A mor
ganatic marriage is just as binding upon the
parties as any other, and precludes any other
marriage- The term is derived from the Ger
man morgengabe, which means a dowry. It
signifies a matrimonial contract in which one
of tlie parties is greatly superior in rank to the
other. If it be the bride who is of inferior
rank, she agrees that she and her children shall
be entitled to neither the rauk nor the estate of
her tiusband, and that the dowry Which is set
tled upon her at the time of the marriage shall
be accepted in Men of all other privileges. If
the man be inferior, lie gives bis assent to simi
lar conditions. In the bridal ceremony tha
party of superior rauk gives the left hand,
Instead of tho right, to the other —whence these
marriages are sometimes styled “ left-handed.”
One of the most famous marriages of this class
was that of Frederick William the Third, of
Prussia, to the Countess Augusta, of Harracb,
upon whom her husband conferred the rank of
Princess of Liegnitz—a marriage consummated
in 1824, long alter the death of the king’s more
legitimate spouse, the beautiful Queen Louisa.
The Princess of Liegnitz is still living—a
widow since 1840.

that a mass of testimony bearing upon the al
leged Asbley-Butlcr conspiracy has been col
lected since tho publication of the Conover dis
closures, and will soon be given out in another
elaborate paper from the office of the Attorney
General. The additional testimony will in
clude au affidavit of Captain Chandler, former
ly ofdlie jail here, in which some important
Items are developed as to the proceedings ol
the alleged congressional conspirators, show
ing tho connection with Conover aud the way
in which his aid was to be obtained. Inter
views between Mr. Dunham and Gen. Butler
are said to be sworn to in ono of the affidavits,
and one of tho affidavits relates an occasion
where Butler is alleged to have paid SSO to Mrs.
Dunham, and to have upbraided her lor not ac
complishing what was expected from hor.—
Chandler is said to boa man of good character,
against whom nothing damaging can be pro
duced- He is also a Radical, but ho is Baid to
have been so disgusted by what ho saw and
heard that he deemed it his duty to inform the
Government. — Wash. Cor. N. Y. Herald.
