BUTTS and the Darkies.

The Cincinnati Commercial tells the follow
ing story:
."And here an incident, related to us as oc-
curing during the awful moments when the
Henry Lewis was sinking aad breaking, sug-
gests itself to us. 1t is not wholly authentic.
but is worth telling anyhow. Marshal Butts
of Covington, who had charge Of the negroes,
is said to have been inflated somewhat with the
Importance of his position, and talked of his
charge as his niggers, and displayed an immense
amount of cutlery and fire arms, with which
he expressed himself resolved to slaughter
whole armies of abolitionists. And ithappen-
ed that he exchanged some sharp words with
a gentleman on the steamer about the Fugitive
Slave case, &c. When the accident occurred
he was in his room, and one Of the tables roll
ing against his Goor, he could not get cut and
yelled tremendously for assistance. Some per-
sons heard him and went to work cutting a
hole through the roof TO let him out. The
most active Of those so engaged was the man
with whom he had the quarrel.
When hole was made large enough to let
the rescuer and the prisoner communicate
with each other, but not sufficient to crawl
through the man with the axe learned for the
first time whom he was laboringto save, and
called out --"Halle, Butts,i this you2 D-n
you, if I'd known that, you might have
drowned. And (after moments refection)
you Shall anyhow if you won't give your word
to let those nIggers go'' There was no time
to be lost, and Butts, fearing that he might be
left to perish, said-"To tell the truth now,
don't own the niggers. If did, Fd4et'em 60
Pm only the AGENT "Well,'' said the man
holding the axe Of delveranec or death, "take
the irons off them anyhow" That Butts
agreed to do, and the opening being enlarged,
he crawled out and began to inquire with some
anxiety: Where's them d--n niggers?" and
was much gratried when he found that only
the baby was lost.
Mr.. Butts informed us, that he took the
shackles off the negroes, and then rushed for
ward to save himself when he was cut out
He had in the first place been released from
his room by one Of the officers of the boat
We presume the above story was made up for

Secretary Of State.

We perceive that Mr.. J. w. Dawson's name,
of Fort Wayne, has been suggested by num-
bar of papers as proper one to run on the
Peoples Ticket for Secretary Of State. Mr..
Dawson is the editor of the Fort Wayne Dai-
ly Times, and gentleman of ability, as well
as of excellent private standing. We hope he
may receive the nomination. We have no
doubt he would fill the office with honor to
himself, and to the entire credit of those who
would be called upon to give him their votes.
If the rest Of the ticket is made up of equally
good men, no man, Republican or American,
could we'll refuse it his hearty support
