MISCELLANY.
Gen. Butler as a Young Lawyer.

In the Norfolk Daily Union biography or
history of Maj. Gen. Butler is being published,
which is exciting some notice. The sketches,
an extract from one of which we give, are ev-
identity written by gentleman from Lowell,
who must be well acquainted with "Ben," and
are decidedly off handed and spicy. Those
of our neghboring city who have long known
the General, are well acquainted with many of
the incidents related After giving an account
of the shrewd dodge resorted to in the acqut-
tai of counterfeiter, lone of "Ben's" cases)
and the ridiculous figure cut by Butler on the
street In wrestling him from the hands OF the
constable the writer goes on to say:
at so happened that one of the editors of
the Lowell Courier was present on this occa-
sion, and witnessed both scenes OF the farce.
The same evening a column of the Courier
was devoted to Butler, describing in humorous
and sarcastic language his exploits of the fore
noon at the court house. The next morning
Butler appeared in the sanctum of the Courier,
armed with formidable raw-hide, and de-
manded of Col. Schouler, the senior editor
of the paper - now Adiutant General of
Massachusetts-thc name of the author OF the
offensive article.
II am not accustomed TO reveal the. author
ship of any portion Of the original matter that
appears in my paper" replied the Colonel. Il
hold myself, however, personally responsible
for the whole of it,"
"If yon wish very much to know the author
ity, of that article, l wrote it, Mr.. Butler"
meekly interposed the youthful assistant edit
or, turning round from his desk at the opposite
side of the room.
81 suppose you did, you = scoundrel,"
screamed Butler, brandishing his raw-hide-
"and I've come up here to thrash you within
an inch of your life, unless you promise to pub
lish in this evenings paper a humble apology
for it.s ss
a shall do no such thing" replied the assist
ant editor. Il have nothing TO retract, nothing
TO apologize for"
"Then take that!' shouted the irate attor-
ney, bringing down his raw-hide.
The assistant editor, dodging the badly aim
ed blow, seized the just filled inkstand from
the desk and let it fly. II struck Ben on the
breast, bespattering his bosom and face TO a
degree his antagonist could hardly have hoped
for.
Just then the door of the printing office
opened, and Ben was seized by half dozen
stout printers, hustled down stairs, and with
tattered hat, face besmeared with ink, and
torn coat, elected into the street,

occupied by pleasant looking Irishman, and
at one of the stations a couple of evidently
well-bred and intelligent young ladies came in

The Negro on the Fence.
Hearken to what now relate,
And on its moral mediate.

A wagoncr with grist for mill,
Was stalled at bottom of hill.
A brawny negro passed that way,
So stout he might lion slay.
"Iill put my shoulder to the wheels
Ifyou'll bestir your horses heels!"
So said the African, and made
AS IL TO render timely aid.
NO" cried the WAGNER, "Stand back
I'll take no help from one that's black"
And to the negro's great surprise,
Flourished his whip before his eyes
Our '.darkey" quick "skedaddlcd" thence,
And sat upon the wayside fence.
Then went the WAGNER TO work,
And lashed his horses to jerk;
But all his efforts were in vain
With shout and oath, and whip and rein.
Tho wheels budged not single inch,
And tighter grew the wagoDer's pinch.
Directly there came by child
With toiling step and vision wild.
Father" said she, with hungry dread,
1--WE famish for the want of bread
Then spake the negro: ''Ifyou will,
sI'll help your horses TO the mill"
The WAGNER, in grievous plight,
Now swore aud raved with all his might,
Because the negro wasn't white;
And plainly ordered him to go
T To certain place that's down below.
Then rushing came the wagoner's wife,
To save her own and infants life.
- BY robbers was their homestead sacked,
And smoke and blood their pillage tracked.
here stops our tale. When last observed,
The WAGNER was still conserved
In mud at bottom of the hill
But bent on getting TO the mill.
And hard by, not rod from thence,
