GEN. BUTLER A "BARNBURNER. During the last
war with England, Gen. BUTLER performed one Of
the nOblest deeds of beroism record. In of
tie severest battles with the British and Indians
the North Western frontier, large number Of the
savages had found their way into Barn from which
they poured deadly fire upon the American troops.
The American commander said "that Barn must be
burt and inquired .'who would volunteer to perform
the perous task" After a long pause, the youthful
Butler CALAMITY stepped forward, and providing him
self with torch, proceeded to the Barr amid show
or Of bullets from the rifles Of the Indians. and
fired it 50 completely to envelope il in flames, and
returned unha rmed to the American lines when every
spectator considered his death inevitable The firing
of that Barn deprived the enemy Of his strongest po-
sition, and gave the victory to the Americans
Gen. Butler is, therefore, the right sort of Barn
burner-he burns the Barns occupied by his countrys
enemies-and he is in every other respect a
thy Of the admiration and confidence Of his country
men! He and his great associate the Democratic
ticket, bound TO be elected by overwhelming
