DEMONSTRATING the tendency of the Butler
bill in the Senate of its whig friends had con-
siderable to say about want of patriotism in those
who opposed it, which led to a good deal of irony
from the other side. On Friday afternoon, beauti-
ful display made of this patriotism :" of the
wings. An amendment had been reported from the
committee providing for the election Of canal trus-
tee by the legislature This winter. The question
being put, the amendment was voted down. Mr..
Davis instantly rose, and observing that he now
satisfied with the bill, moved TO lag IL the table
CONSERVATION dire depicted on the faces of its
most ardent supporters, and many senators rose TO
their feet in establishment. The vote taken, and
enough, the bill was laid on the table, apparent
ly as dead as Chelsea" In the mean time MIR.
Davis was besought to relent, and such assurances
suppose given to him as to cool his anger.
Mr.. Stockwell then about to move reconsidera-
ton Of the vote, striking out the provision for the
Immediate election of Trustee; but soon his
purpose was discovered, ether democrats who had
voted for the BILL uterng cries Of dsapprobation al
the request of Mr.. Davis, Mr.. S. withdrew his mo-
iGion. Mr.. Davis, having exhibited his power and
thus far gained his point, moved to take the bill up
again, which was DONE 1t was altogether a rich
seene-very rich and we regret that we have moi
room to give more graphic description of it. The
fact stood out broad and palpable, and disgusting
enough toO that the wing leaders, rather than lose
the chance Of eecting rhig trustee, would have
sacrificed measure of greater importance than any
other ever before the legislature, if we except the
system bill Of 1886.
The "patriotism 4" of Mr.. Montgomery was just
as severely tried when Mr.. Stewart moved TO place
two side cuts in which Mr. M. was particularly y
interested, on the same footing as other side cuts
Mr.. M. regarded these the apple of his eye; and
without them it would the bill would have been
obnoxious to him. He called to the rescue; the cal
was answered; and the "patriotism" of Mr.. M
burnt more 6ercely than before,

OEFThe new Butler bill, amended, passed the
Senate yesterday noon, by vote of "a to Is. Had
the Senate been full at the beginning of the
sion, the result might have been different. Some
singular given for the sudden absence Of
Mr.. CONNER, who, up the time of his departure,
had strongly opposed the bill. The reasons for the
absence of other Senators have not heard; but
are free to say, that do not admire the prac-
tice of the departure of members of the Legislature
before the close of the session.

0LFThe New York correspondent of the Washing

quent eulogy pronounced by Senator Hannegan, on
the occasion of the death of Senator Barrow, and
which copied few days ago:
"The remarks of Senator Hannegan upon the
melancholy and unlooked-for death of Senator Bar
row, have been read here with admiration by all
of true taste and feeling. There is real elo-
quence in them than anything we have had from the
floor of Congress in long time. The passage in
which, with reiteration equally TO nature to
art the name of the lost and dear friend is repeated
and dwelt on-is full of the highest pathos. 1t is
impossible this distance for the merest stranger to
read it without emotion. What must have been its
power the intimates and colleagues, to whom il
was addressed ~
