Picayune Butler.

The following incident, related of this
sniyeling old renegade by the Boston
Transcript, is fair index to his true
character:
As the sleeping car on the shore line was
leaving New York last Sunday evening,
bearing numerous passengers, including
Gen. Butler and his aid, q young gentleman
who had evidently been taking a little too
much wine, forced his society upon the Gen.
ersl, not knowing with whom he was con-
versing. The Generals aid was for expel-
ling the saucy individual, but Gen. Butler
decided to let him have his talk. In the course
of the conversation, Gen. Buffers political
course was discussed, and the individual
avoEed that, q" as for Butler, he had been
q little of every thing" that at the Charles
ton Convention he had voted for Douglas
and he couldn't understand chow it was he
was run as g Breckenridge candidate for
Governor of Massachusetts"
The General replied that according to HIS
memory, Butler voted ffty-seven times for
JEFF. Davis, at the Charleston Convention,
and had never been a Douglas man. The
individual proceeded further to remark that
he thought Butler was mighty smart law
yer, and had heard him often in Boston and
Lowell, but that he never knew that he was
anything Of military man until this rebel
lion broke out. The General replied that
the statement was all true, and asked the
stranger what he thought of this outrageous
war, and whether Virginia had acted wisely
in having made herself the tail to South
Carolina 8 kite.
The individual replied that, consulting
her individual interests, Virginia had acted
rGshEy, but upon general principles she had
done right, and that the South had done
right, ending by avowing genuine secesh
sentiments. Gen. Butler repeated his cues
ton, and received the same answer; then
drawing himself back, informed the imper-
tinent individual in very calm mannet
that his name was ~ Butler-General B. f.
Batler, and as the head Of the department
of New England, he arrested him as traitor
and Secessionist, and that he should be sent
to Fort Warren in the morning"
The surprise and fright of the half-boozy
individual can very well be imagined, and
it was some moments before he could real
lie his situation. The General continued
very sternly, that as a United States Off
Ger, he should not allow any one to talk
reasonable sentiments in his presence, but
that as he was under the influence of wine,
he would order him to his berth, and if in
the morning he did not beg his pardon and
avow Union sentiments, he should proceed
to Fort Warren The astonished individ-
ual crawled up into his bunk, and before
morning daHned, the fear Of again meet
ing the General, and the idea Of quitting
up" at Fort Warren instead of the Revere
House, was SO terrifying that he skulked
away, and probably got off the train at New
London.

Poor Fellows.

Tine Cincinnati Commercial, whines pit
eously for the East Tennesseeans. 1t
publishes long letter from one of them,
complaining bitterly of the policy of the
Yankee commanders, and then breaks out
as follows:
It is the letter Of as brave, honest and pa
triotic man as lives on the earth. In it
he expresses the opinions, the feelings of
the East Tennesseans, still lingering in
Kentucky, broken in spirit through the
cruel negligence Of the Government. He
pleads the cause of the mountaineers under
Brownlow, who have just whipped the reb-
els in the heart Of East Tennessee-win-
ming the brightest victory Of the war.
The instruction in Esst Tennessee was
not an accident. We know the Union men
were in the most solemn manner assured
that if they would make demonstration
they should instantly be supported in force.
Gen. Sherman pledged himself to that eff
tect. He was believed; the bridges were
burned, and the messengers who crossed to
announce the fact, OPPORTUNITY arrived to
find our troops under Gen. Thomas ma
king forced march away from Cumber-
land Gap. Is it any wonder they cry out
in agony at such want Of faith and want of
sense in our Government and Generals !?
How patiently and how long viii the Gov
ernment-how long will President Lincoln,
Gen. Mcclellan, Gen. Buell-wait before
sending relief to the East Tennesseans
Ii our armies are all permitted to be stag
nant, the rebels viii have plenty Of time to
send an overwhelming force into the glori-
Gus region Of Tennessee where the old ban
mar afiIi ehiuas.-and take and hapO Rroun

o. a short time since the n. Y Times
published the following:
ARemarkabIe Prophecy,

One of the most striking instances of the
fulfllment of prophecy, says the Boston
Christian Advocate, was pointed out to US
lately by an eminent Baptist divine. 1t oc-
ours in the 9Th, 10th, and 21st verses of
HRggai, chap. iv.
''Behold there shall be rebellion in the
South, rebellion Of strong men and arch
ers, Of chariots and bright shields; and the
blast Of the trumpet shall awaken the land,
and the nations shall be astonished thereat.
Sand 10, behold, because Of the sin of
the South, her mighty men shall be as
babes, her gates shall be destroyed utterly,
saith the Lord, yea utterly destroyed shall
be her gates, and her rice fields shall be
wasted and her slaves set free.
''And behold, great ships from the North
shall deyour her pride, and q storm from
the West shall lay waste her habitations.-
Yea, saith the Lord, and her dominion shall
be broken.
The day following the Times acknowl.
edged the corn as follows:
Prophecy.
We copied from the Boston Christian Ad-
vooate, a day or two since, what was styled
. Remarkable Prophecy" from Haggai,
chap. iv., verses 8, 10, and 81, wonderfully
applicsble'to the preset war, and its conse-
quences to the South. We have received
multitude of letters informing us that there
but taro chapters in Haggsi, and that the
Christian Advocate had been badly hoaxed.
It has this consolation, however. in common
with ourselves-thst it has stimulated q
good many persons to search the Scriptures
possibly for the first time.

cB HEADACHE is the favorite sign by which na- ture makes known any deviation whatever from the natural state of the brain, and viewed in this lghtit may be looked on as a safeguard intended to give notice of disease which might otherwise es- cape attention, till too late to be remedied and its indications should never be neglected. Headaches may be classified under two names, viz: Sympto- matic and 1dopathic. Symptomatc Headache is exceedingly common and is the precursor of great variety of diseases, among which are Apoplexy, Gout, Rheumatism and all febrle diseases. In its nervous form it is sympathetic of disease of the stomach constituting sick headache, of hepatic dis
 ease constituting bilious headache, of worms, con- stpation and other disorders of the bowels as well
 as renal and uterine affections. Diseases of the heart are very frequently attended with Headaches
 Anaema and plethora are also affections which ire
 quently occasion headache. Idiopathic Headache is also very common, being usually distinguished by the name of nervous heddGche, sometimes com ing on suddenly in a state of apparently sound health and in other instances it comes on slowly
 heralded by depression of spirits acerbity of tenn
 per ln most instances the pain is in the front of the head, over one both eyes, and sometimes pro-
 voking vomiting; underth class may also be nam cd NeYalgia. roJ ..4a ..f r. .4.i.r -tt For the treatment of either class of Headache the Cephalic Pills have been found sure and safe remedy, relieving the most acute pains in few minutes, and by its subtle power eradicating the diseases of which Headache is the unerring index.

Constipation or Costiveness.

No one of the many ills flesh is heir to'' is so prevalent, so little understood, and so much neg lected as Costiveness. Often originating in care lessness, or sedentary habits; it is regarded as slight disorder of too little consequence to excite anxiety, while in reality it is the precursor and companion of many of the most fatal and dange- rous diseases, and unless early eradicated it will bring the sufferer to an untmely grave. Among the lighter evils of which costiyeness is the usual attendant are Headache, Coc, Rheumatism, Foul Breath, Piles and others of-a like nature, while a long train of tiightfd dlseuses such as Malignant Fevers, Abcesses, Dysentary, Diarrhna, Dyspep- sa, Apoplexy, Epilepsy, Paralysis, Hysteria, Fly pochondri4sis, Melancholy and Insanity, first indi- cate their presence in the system by this alarming symptom. Not unfreguently the diseases named originate in Constipaton but take on an indSpend- ent existence unless the cause is eradicated in an early stage. From all these considerations it fol-
 lows that the disorder should receive immediate attention whenever it occurs, and no person should neglect to get box of Cephalic Pills on the first appearance of the complaint, as their timely use will expel the insduous approaches of disease and destroy this dangerous foe to human life. ..

MISCELLANEOUS.

HE AMALGAMATIoN OF LANGuAGEs.--There is a growing tendency in this age to appropriate the most expressive words of other languages, and after awhile to incorporate them into our own; thus the word Cephelic, which is from the Greek, sig nitying " for the head," isnow becoming popular lzed Tn connection with MT. Spalding' great Head
 ache remedy, but it will soon be used in more ge- neral way, and the word Cephelic will become as common as Electrotype and many others whose distinction as foreign words has been worn away by common usage until they seem "native and to the manor born.'' h tr Go' 'I.+ I

Sufferers by this dis distressing attacks by using one of the Cephalic Pills whenever the symptoms appear. It quiets the Overtasked brain, and soothes the strained and jarrng nerves, and reaxes the tension of the sto- mach which always accompanies and aggravates the disordered condition of the brain.
