The Late u. n. Ruticr Poet.
1t 10 not generally known that the lste b.
F. Butler, like his SON William Allen, was .
poet OF n superior order. Had he devoted
himself to the pursuit. Of literature, he would,
doubtless, have sttained as high IN eminunce
in Letters as he did in law and politics. We
had n deep respect for MIR. Bntler. No one
could know him without being impressed
with the cleavness and the rapidity Of his
intellect, and with the pure sincerity and
holiness OF his character.
Mr.. Butler was our neighbor. We were
accustomed to see him every DAY passing and
repassng, with his short, rapid, agile step,
his head bent slightly forward, and his ever
bsaming, intelligent and expressive look
lie was ever ready with his friendly greeting,
his kind, encouraging word and pleasant
smile. lie had handsome face and . most
keen and expressive eye. But a few weeks
elapsed since we had the pleasure TO greet
him after his return from summers sojonrn
in tho country. Soon after that time we
missed his accustomed walk" and on en-
curing where he was, were informed that he
had gone to Europe. The next day we were
startled and greved by seeing his death an
nounced in the papers. lie had died away
from home.
The following sonnets, which would have
done credit to Wordsworth, were from the
pen Of Mr.. Butler:
JOHN CALVIN.
While angry lots boast Of Calvin's fame
Or Lad hi : memory with reproaehes dire,
Lot Truth and Justice speak, aud they cons pire
To praise, TO bless, TO canonize his name;
Say that he clothes In to- austere guise
The sacred doctrines II tho Christian page;
Say that he shares the spirit Of his age,
And stands unmoyei whils poor Servetus dies
Shall slec<s like these forbid VA to revere
Tbs brightest day-star Of the blessed hour

Shook eff the incubus II Papsl power2

Harper's Weekly feels good deal exer-
cised about the proposition of the Mayor of
Keokuk with reference to the public debt
Ii says, sit seems to be question, now,
whether other cities will follow the bad ex-
ample or not" We beg to say that by a
state Of suspension they would not DO fol-
lowing the example Of the city of keokuk so
much as the prior example Of the Brothers
Harper. And we hope that but few Of them
will SO long remain in state OF suspension
as they did. We commend their moral scru-
pies for home consumption.

Consolation.

The Quincy Wing and Republican, at q
time when good many journals throughout
the country feel considerably anxious con-
cerning the financial condition of our city,
offers the very decent consolation Of saying
that, considering the youshfulne.s and posi-
tion Of keoknk, she is sure to come out
right in the end. We haven't whit more
anxiety on that point than the Uhig.

We had our first severe cold weather last
Saturday. In the morning the thermometer
stood at % deg. below zero, at Mr.. Stripes,
on the bluff, and 9 degrees lower still on
Main street.
In passing, We may say, that the fact that
the thermometer usually stands about two
degrees lower on Main street than higher up,
on the bluff, has been demonstrated by care
full experiment made by Mr.. Stripe.

occur on the 4th Of March next. The next
day, without the utterance Of word, the
Legislature threw out the resolution and left
the anxious inquirer stil. in the dark.
