the official paper Of the county, but we will
say for the information Of our readers that
they can't always count on that. That is
the official paper, that does the printing for

shall be done by the paper that does it cheap.
est. Last fall We bid lower than the Re-

the official printers. This spring, although
they did not underbid us. they got the job,
which is all right enough, and now they al e

talk ABOUT official character, but altogether

GENERAL BUTLER.
From lIarper's Weekly


Among the men who have deserved well
Of the country during the last two years nc
one is more emineut than General Butler
One Of the first citizens to march at the call
of the Government, he was not rebuflcd by
delays but carried his regiment to the ncares,
practicable point to Washinton. While 9th
cr generals and conflicting councils higgled
and delayed about investing Baltimore, or re.
ducing Baltimore, or parleyng with Balti
more, General Butler quietly moved with
two regiments and took Baltimore, so that we
have held it fast ever since Sent to For,
Monroe, he was, as chief in command, pop.
ularly held responsible for the disaster OF
Great Bethel; but that he was truly account
able for it has not yet clearly appeared. La.
ter, in company with Stringham, he was
heard Of at Hattcras.
There followed few months in which, un.
der rowing commission, he was engaged in
collecting a great force. There were long
and loud debates, The Governor of Massa-
chusctts and the General differed. There
were infinite delays. But at last his expeli.
ton sailed. 1t did not take with t unqucs.
tioEing public confidence. The public was
anxious to hear rather than sanguine. But
when it did hear it heard the most striking
and splendid news Of the war-the capture
Of New Orleans by Farragut and Porter and
its occupation in concert by Butler.
From that moment no has he'd New Or

foot in the den of the most malignant enc.
mics. There might be friends also but his
INV l.
And he has ruled the city with rod of iron
ANY staff less stern would have snapped in
his hand, and struck back fatally uron the
country. He has been hated and abused by
the enemy with a ferocity that showed how

have worked together promptly, vigorously

loyal had been equally perceptlve, rapid and
resolutc, there would have been fewer dismal
passages in our history. Had his system and
spirit in managing New Orleans been those
of the nation in dealing with the rebellion,
its military Importance would already have

rs DARK.--It IS dark when the honest
and honorable man secs the result of loi;a
years swept cruelty away by the knavish
heartless adversary. 1t is dark when he
feels the clouds Of sorrow gather around and
knows that the hopes and happiness of 9th.
ers are fading with his own. But in that
hour the memory of past integrity will be a
true consolation, and assure him even here
OF earth, of CLEANS Of light in Heaven. 1t is
dark when the dear voice of sweet child,
once so fondly loved, is no more heard around
in murmers. Dark when the light, patterins
feet no more rescund without the threshold
or ascend step by step, the stairs. Dark
when some well known air recalls the strains
once oft attuned by the childish voice now
hushed in death Darkness; but only the
gloom which heralds the day y-spring Of i'm
mortality and the infinite light of Heaven.
