New YoRK, October %, 1916
The Baltimore Patriot, with that eandor which
not unfrequendy distinguishes ii so favoraby from
the majority OF the whig press acknowledges frank
ly the wrong done to General Butler by the reports,
born Of folly and spread by maigniy, recently cir
eulaled against him. II quotes from General Tay
lor's Official dispatches Of September 2Sth, his
hearty commendations of the conduct Of both reg
ulars and volunteers, which he pronoupces 'eyery-
thing that could be desired singing out by name,
as the conspicuous objects for this distinguished
praise, Major Generals Butler and Henderson, an 4
Brigadisr Generals Twiggs and Worth. The Pa
triot justly observes ...- n. .. a.. ..r
"of course, il is impossible, after such a report
as this from Gen. Taylor, who has shown that he
does not 20 out Of his way TO praise any one, and
who makes his commendaton valuable by eonfning
II 10 particular merritt Is impossible after such a
report as this that there could be any truth ia the
rumors and slanders to which we have referred
What Gen. Butler did, and what the Baltimore,
Kentucky, and Ohio volunteers did, was done under
the eye and by the command Of Gen. Taylor him
self and he tells that he is under obligations TO
the former for his efficient support; and that the
conduct Of the latter throughout the operations, was
every thing that could be desired"

At the time OF despa,ching my yesterdays letter,
there quite an excitement about the black boy,
who, as | mentioned, was that day set free on ha-
bsas corpus. Immediately on his discharge, he was
hurried OF to the anti-slavery buildings in Nassau
street, whittier, in few Minutes he was pursued
by several officers, armed with new process for
his arrest Unable to hnd him in the building after
a hard search, they determined 10 keep watch on
the outside, in which purpose they were aided by
any number Of volunteers, large crowd of citizens
having collected on the spot, increasing every hour.
They had been upon the look out several hours,
when, at hafpast o'clock, a car-msn was seen
to remove from the vicinity Of the anti-savery Office
two large boxes, apparently Of grea, weight, and
directed "Rev. Ira Monley, Essex, New York; this
side up with care"

this and the cart being stopped, the unlueky
way was dragged, more dead than alive, from his
hiding place in one Of the boxes. He was then
taken to the mayors office, and, after deal Of ar
gument, pro and con, The captain Of the vessel
having susd out a warrant against the slave
for assault and battery on board ship, and had
him arrested over again thereon and the anti
slavery the other hand having served at once
writ Of habtas corpus finally agreed that the boy
should be remanded to the tombs until the return Of
the habes esrpus this morning at 10 o'clock. This
morning at 10 o'clock, the whole matter was post.
poned until o'clock this afternoon.
The public sentiment is unanimous in favor of the
mueh-needed reform attributed lately to the Post
master General, by which his deputies throughout
the country required give their personal atten-
ton to the duties Of their offices, and to the con-
duct Of their subordnates.
In the Sd congressional district of this city, Henry
Nioo csq, (aeiy delegate to the State convention,
and chairman Of our general committee) was NOM
mated.
IL seems there was some error about the report Of
the Kings and Richmond nomination. The friends
of both Mr. Murphy and Mr.. Wlnants claim it
for each respectively. This is matter which
must not be permitted to 60 on without settle
