mark his social intercourse, and, uDbending
integrity and justice all his dealings. His
home is one Of unpretehding simplicity. 1t
is too much the habit in Kentuck, with stern
and fierce men to carry their personal and
political ends with high hand. Gen. But
ler, with all the masculine strength, courage,
aud reputation to give SUCCESS to attempts OF
this sort, never evinced the slightest DISPOSE
tionto indulge the power, whilst his we'll

on him. His life has been one of peace
