self When British officer enters Sc
poy village and gives the order to ravish
the women, and then level their houses
to the earth; humanity shudders for civ
ilization. Compared with such fiends Gen.
Butler is scholar, a gentleman, and a
Christian. How forgetful of the rights of
civilization, for our statesmen to remain
silent without recording the indignation
at such brutal actsi England must feel
proud of those Christian officers, and no
wonder she is indignant at Butler.

the women before butchering the garrison

England is not the land to give America
examples as to the treatment of woman.
America is country where its youth are
taught not to insult an old man or an old
woman, and woman can 90 through the
entire country without being insulted.-
America is the land where education and
religion gives tone to the morals of the
people. How careful England is to find
fault with our Federal army
Have you seen any questions on the
Parliamentary paper asking if the reports

Gov. Sprague found some of his aids, who
