Gen, Frank BJair's Views on the Presidency.
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tary despotism is withdrawn.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.
