The EFFECT OF SECESSION ON Coon MAN
SERs-Rev. DIR. Butler, of Washington. In
lecture at Cincinnati few evenings ago,
gave his audience a few instances of the
amiable disposition of young ladies' of seces-

young artillery officer was spit upon By two
young ladies, Q few days before the
battle Of Bull Run. He Immediately in
quired their names and ascertaincd their
residences, and on that samo evening, with
a number Of his comrades, 5erenaded them
for three hours, singing the most sentiment
al songs in praise of the loyeliness and gen.
tlensss of woman.
The second Illustration" given by DR..
Butler was as follows: 90 In Baltimore u
young lady dropped her handkerchief one
day. A Federal officer was sufficiently over
charged with etiquette to pick it up and
hand it to her. The dear creature-type Of
the graces that she was-gave him side
glance, and in dulcet tones inquired d" Do
