General Frank Elair, of Missouri, is now "In Washington, and is daily visited by friends who desire his nomination for the Presidency. Powerful influences are being exerted to this end, and his friends profess to lie sanguine of success. His views of public policy are expressed freely, and are of the most emphatic and pronounced char acter on the issues of the day. They arc given with toe point and vim of a positive and fearless nature, and are the application of fixed opinions to the existing situation. The following is their substance as derived from personal conversation, and is entirely authentic : Gen. Glair, now as always, scouts the Idea of giving the ballot to the negroes.— The question of negro suffrage he regards as she cardinal issue in ihe canvass. In his judgment, indexible opposition to tins Radical doctrine is the chief issue on which the Conserva ives must expect to triumph. He holds that the reconstruction acts, estab lishing military despotism and negro suf frage in the South, are unconstitutional, null and void, anti that the Democratic National Convention should so declare them, just as the Supreme Court would have decided if the case of McArdle had been adjudicated. The laws of Congress disfranchising persons who were embraced in amnesty proclamations or special par dons are illegal, arbitrary and void. Test oaths for voters are uuconstitu' ional, and this is why Gen. Glair refused to take the Missouri test. oath. His appeal to the Su preme Court in that case ought to have been decided at the last term, and he regrets its postponement. The recon struction acts establishing negro suf frage and .governments thereon he holds to be usurpations, and de clares they have no basis except, by the lawless violence and force of the army, and the Federal Government must, withdraw this coercion, correct its own wrong, and leave it to the white population of each State to regulate the question of .suffrage. The bastard and spurious governments set. np at the South have no right, to control this mat ter, and must fall as soon as mili tary despotism is withdrawn. He asserls it the duty of the incoming President to see that justi e is done, and to restore the governments, which are the creation of the white population, to those to whom they belong General Glair is not willing to ac cept or acquiesce in anything done by the Radical Congress qn this subject of recon struction. lie is for confining the govern ment of the country exclusively to the white race. lie is very confident, of an overwhelming defeat to I‘adiealisin, if the issues of the hour and future arc boldly made by the New York nominations and platform, and dead issues ignored. He pre dicts such an uprising of the people as has never been seen in America, and says this is already felt by the Radicals. The points relied on chiefly by General Glair’s friends t<> procure his nomination are as follows: First, that as a Union vol unteer general the cry ot copperhead will fall to the ground, the issues of the past be excluded, and the canvass lie con lined to the issues of the day. Asa volunteer gen eral, they contend volunteer ollieers and soldiers will go for him against a West Pointer. His four years’ service in the Western army is relied on to gain this sup port, and they point, to his civil career to meet views of those who want a candidate with civic qualifications for President.— General Blair’s friends declare if he be nom inated the Radicals will not dare to at tempt to carry the election by fraud or vio lence, as he is not a man to be trilled with or cheated out of his election. Glair’s friends expect to carry the Missouri dele gation and votes in Maine, New Hamp shire and Massachusetts, and t he delegates generally from the Mississippi Valley. They also count on a considerable vote from Ten nessee and other Southern States. [From the St. Louis Republican. Ben Butler on Pat. nt Medicines. Mr. Butler took occasion in the debate on the tax bill to give to the country his opinion of manufacturers of patent medi cines, pills, powders, tinctures, troches, lozenges, liniments, cordials, bitters, es sences, cosmetics, perfumery, extracts, hair oil, pomades, hair restoratives, hair dye, tooth wash, etc., ete. He denounced the manufacturers of these articles as the least useful people on earth, and of “ least con sequence to anybody but themselves.”— Their articles he declared were of “ no use except to poison” the people, and he, for one, would “ legislate them out of exist ence” if he could. He would tax them generally, tax them under the stamp taxes, tax them everywhere, and, if possible, so tax them that they would never be heard of again. Gut why should the “ Bc-ast Butler ” be “ running a-muck” thus against the patent medicines and cosmetics which count among their patrons one-half of the people of this Republic ? Who stands in need of cosmetics so much as he? He has no hair on the top of his head. He is shockingly oblique-visioued. Is his breath sweet? Does he need no den tifrice? No aromatic caehous? Nothing to be applied to bald pate, mouth or skin ? We are sure that he needs to be blistered for chronic irritability and ill temper. A patent cathartic would cool the fever of his blood, and a patent anodyne moderate his ferocity. And we are sure that all the women of the land, with a large proportion of the men, added to the numerous class of manufacturers and venders of patent medi cines, cosmetics and perfumery, who are so in temperately denounced by him, would vote to give him a sugar-coated strychnine pill, to be taken before breakfast, to morrow morning. The reconstructed States will find their burdens greater than they can bear if the Radical Ren Rutler is to be per mitted to tax out of existence cosmetics and perfumery. In the Legislature of South Carolina there are. ninety-eight negroes to fifty-seven witos. flow shall that fragrant race of American citizens of African descent qualify themselves for a welcome into the Anglo-Saxon society they are to dominate, without a free use of promades, essence,s, extracts, toilet waters and aromatic cachous? Or how shall tiic “reconstruct ed” whites escape asphyxiation by the over powering odors exhaled from African skins, in the new social order in the South, if Ben Butler is to be permitted to lay prohibitory taxes on the pleasing luxuries of the toilet which afford delicious relief from the per fumes of African civilization ? Patent medicines and cosmetics may be “ poisons.” But reconstruction with three millions of negroes at the top of the social organiza tion, and no cosmetics and no aromatic cachous and perfumery—is not that some thing worse than poison? Is Butler con spiring to depopulate the South of the white race? [From tin' Savannah News it Herald Outrage by an United States Military Officer. Abou 1 1 o’clock yesterday three soldiers wer< posted in Bay lane, one at the corner of Bull, another at the corner of Drat I on street, and one in front of a gambling saloon in the laue l.v a United States army officer commanding in Floiidn, but whoia here having a little amuse ment. The guard first questioned persons who attempted to pass through the lane, or those who atletnpfcd logo into the lane from the tiaelc entrance, and then ordered them hack.— This state of affairs being, we are gratified <0 state, somewhat unusual in this city, excited much comment and inquiry. The guard, after remaining about twenty minutes, left, and went to the military barracks, carrying with them the prisoner, who had been arrested by order of the officer. Our reporter made diligent inquiries, and learned that a few days ago the officer caru. to this city, and went at night to a gambling saloon and bad a “little game.” He won that night, as he also did on one or two nights alr< r. Monday night fortune changed, ami the colon I lost his gold watch and chain and about two hundred dollars. The Colonel yesterday morn ing went lo the barracks and procured a gua and of three men, whom he brought down towu and posted the men as above stated, and then bad the person who won his money arrested, and carried to the military barracks aud con fined. A prominent lawyer of this city volunteered his services as counsel of this imprisoned lint nnaeeused man,And proceeded to the harracks to consult with him. but was denied admit tance. A warrant w.n then taken out before Justice Mar. Ii for the arrest of the Colonel for violat ing a In w of the Stale and the City Ordinances in belting and playing at faro. The warrant was given lo constable Geo. S. Bartlielmess, and he proceeded lo the barracks to arrest the man charged in Ihe warmtil. On arriving “at the barracks aud statin" hi- errand Mr. Bar- Ibi lull ' s was ordered off l>y Ihe officer of the dnv. Mr. Hnrlhclmesi', of course, left, ns he welt kn. w that lie could not arrest the Colonel when supported by bayonets in di fiance of Un civil authority ol the reconstructed Stale of Georgia. On retiring Mr. Bartlielmess met Colonel Maloney, who had pi,,i. returned from Fort Pulaski, and Staled his errand. The Colonel politely dint thinly fold him that if lie arre. ted the Colonel he would l ave lo relc.ure him ; and Mr. Bai lludmess left Ihe vieintv. Alter this, about six nVlock, ihe Colonel came down lo (lie lawyer’s oll'me, accompanied by l.lie arrested man, who was encoded lya guard o! three im 11 The Colonel alii ged tli.it hisiimmy and watch bad lea n uulaii ly won, and oll'ered to compromise 1 lit; mall.i r. After ■ oiisiijerable tall; big over Ihe a flail it. was agreed to settle ii this morning, at ten o’clock, the watch to lx delivered up by the party who won it. Tin' prisoner was. then released upon condition lh:H he would comply with his promise to deliver Up tie waleh, or 1 Is, return to e:r-- oily. This high.handed pi oceeiliiig was never equalled even in the palmy day 01 IKb.a, when white men had to have parses to go f:<qn tl.( it places ol business to their homos. An officer not even lx longing to this p-vl lake.- a military guard, places sentinels on the sired corners and stops those who u!tempi to pass without his permission, while he searches the premises of a citizen for the. purpose of arresting-a man with whom lie had been gambling the. night previous, and who had won his motley, lie arrests the citizen w ithout authority and car ries him to the Military Barracks, where hi* counsel is ret used access t o him, and when a warrant is taken out for the arrest of this, offi ccr, by civil process, for a violation of Liu Stale law and city ordinances, Ihe officer in nU.enipf ing to serve the writ is treated, with indignity, land the officer who perpetrated.-flits genes, out rage upon out people is protect'd by bayonets. But this man is but billowing in the loot steps of Ids, “ illusttions predecessors,” Butler. Grant, <'anby k Meade, vt ii muni's f/c nvs, and thinks that, he can escape just punishment. It is such men as he is who spend their evenings in gam bling hells and worse place? to whom mu peo ple. have to bow. We iiusf. that every ellort will lie made to bring this matter to trial. Let ns see whether we. have laws or not. A Veritable Bull in a Veritable Cigna Snor.— From time imni tnorial the plmu-e 11 a lmil in n china .shop” It.::: been regarded Ires ;is :t conception to be realized than tvs a figure of speech to convey an idea of the inevitable de struction which is sure to result from the presence of an iiinviiltlly and indcfi'iisive ele uieut. Few have ever seen a hull in a eliina shop, but all can appreciate what is likely to follow from such an alarming entree. The i simile is readily rceogi.-Yed when we. look at the bovine party which has managed to get into the Government shop, autl, with that tre mendous hull at their head, J’en Butler, are smashing np the china it cost this \n.< rican people so much to collect. In this instance no simile could be more perfect, and probably tor snch contingencies t lie designers of such phrases wisely provided. This morning, how ever, we are enabled to record the rare instance of a veritable bull in a veritable china shop, and no mean china shop either, but one whete a courageous nut mendacious bull could do stroy the aggregate work ol a lifetime. Before noon to-day a great antlered bovine, finding the time banging heavily on his hand.-, strolled leisurely aud modestly by the side door on Broome street in the store ot i 1 V. Ilaugh wout, and the visit being as unexpected as it was momentous, there was no one in the im mediate neighborhood who adequately realized its nature and importance. However, wh> n it had been noticed by somebody industriously cleaning the glass eases, no battery ol artillery planted in tbe doorway preparing to shell the whole concern could have conveyed any more appalling impression. In went the bull be tween rows of brilliant glass cases, iu which the most expensive of Bohemian vases were con tained, and, turning to the right made his way to a magnificent mirror. Thanks to that mirror, the establishment was saved. Overcome by his vanity, that wretched bull stood stupidly ad miring himself when Iris time should have been occupied iu making acquaintance with Ihe china aud eujoyiug a good time generally. He well deserves never to get a einiilgg chance again. Two bipeds stole noiselessly behind him, and while he was utterly lost admiring the sharp tip on his horns took him quietly by the tr.il and drew him gently back. Then with the utmost facility they wheeled him around and showed him to the door with a success the most marvellous that has ever beuu heard of. Incredible to relate, not an article was disturb ed, and that doubly stupid bnll will have to pass his days in vain remorse for the opportu nity he so wilfully let pass. IJV. Y.
