Gen. ButIer's Efficiency A. an Officer
The Hon. J. n. Ashley, of Ohio, Of whose
recent visit to Fort Monroe we have already
published an account. writes IS follows to the
Toledo Blade concerning Gen. Butler:
OfGen. Butler, his ability as man aud cf1.
cheney as an officer, need not speak. The

BILE services at Baltimore and Annapolis. And
can assure the reader that whatever may
have been my notions SO to his appointment

campaign that the right man is in the right
place." AL be asks, and all ask for him, Is
to give him fair chance aud relieve him Of
tho red tapeism that unfortunately prevails to
an alarming extent in most Of the Depart
ments at Washington.
You viii have heard by the time this reach
es you OF the manner In which he disposed Of
Col Mallory, who came into the Fort under d
flag Of truce TO claim three Of his loyal slaves
who 1ad fed from his kind and hospitable
roof and taken shelter in Fortress Monroe
among strangers. Who will say that Gen.
Butler, so far as he vent, was not right? /? This
Col Mallory had met Gen Butler In the
Charleston and Baltimore Conventions, and
tfsitn ttkss:. impudenco aud assumption chaEac
teristic Of the Nigarchy, he came into General
Buffers camp and, though engaged IN open
treason against taeGoverpmeMat, A. demands that
! the sou Of Virginia Wit, uaitea States sol
dIere, and return him hia happy and contented
| s!aves.
Gen. Butler then said, "You hold that ne
gro slaves are property and that Virginia is no
| longer part Of the United Statca?"
Tie Colonel answered, ~ do, si1."
Gen Butler then said, You are lawyer,
| sir, and want to know # yon claim that the

binding In a.5ondga nation, and, Il foreign

This was too much for the Colonel, and he
knocked under and Withdrew.
