Another Outrage Of Cen Butler

that The little Count Mtjsr, formerly

poleon to send an armed force to pro
tee, tie gr"g-shop-keeper. of,h,t city.
from an "uncons,itutional' tax General
Butler had levied upon thcm. TIE En-
pcror was so puzzled TO know What his
Consul had TO do with the American
Constitution, and on what principles he
made himself the champion Of whis' j.
vendors in an American city, hit he
called the Count home to explain.
It will be seen from what follows.
t!*at Gen. Buffers tyranny did no, stop
at taxing grogshops. 1t seems thai,
after the expulsion Of The rclcls and
their allies, tae Thugs from New Or
leans, the dead walls of that city were
suddenly covered wl'h conspicuous
bills containing the following s. nterce !:
"Get yonr shirts Il, M,rly'r, 90.

A planter, a seccssipnist came to town
some months after Butler had taken the

at the cleanliness and good ur1er he
found prevailing; also, he was surpris-

where in the face.
"Get your shirts at Mooay's :" said
he 10 an acquaintance he met in the
street: what does this mean? / see X

the outrageous acts ofthis fellow Butler.

The Warren (Trumbul county, Ohio
Chronicle states that distressing case
If hydrophobia occurred in Vienna, in
that county, last week. A boy named
Henderson bartholomew, while or bis
way to school, in January last, was
bitten In the cheek by dog. The
wound healed in short time, and at
tractcd no more attention until Thurs
day week, when the young man ex-
perienced a peculiar sensation in his
head. While at dinner on Friday, he
was taken witli spasms, and continued
to grow worse until Saturday, when he
died.
In this connection the following re.
markable case. which is described in
the New York papers, will be read with
interest.

No bad man is ever brought to re-
rentafce by angry words; by bitter,
senrntu! reproaches. He for,ifies him
self against reproof, and hurts back foul
CHARGES in the face ot lis accuser. Yet
snil,y and ha, denrd ns he seems, he
has heart in his bosom, and may he
mcl'el to tears Ivy gentle voice.
Who so, therefore, can restrain his dis
position to blame and find fault, and
can bring himself down to fallen
brother, will soon iind way to better
feelings within. Pity and patience are
he two keys which mi .ck the human
heart. They who have been m ,st sue
ces>tnl laborers among the poor and
vicious, have been he most fnrbcaring.
Said the celebrated st. Vincent de
Pa.l: "If it has pleased heaven to
employ the most miserable Of nen for
the conversion Of some souls, they have
themselves confessed that it was
by the patience and sympathy
which lie hal fnr them. Even the con-
.ic,s, among whom | have lived, can
be gained in no other way. When /
have kissed their chains, and showed
compassion for their distress, and keen
sensihility tor their disgrace-then have
they listened &C me, and placed them
selves in the way of salvation. ~

sEoRETARY's REPORT.

The year just closed has been ono of pc
culiar trial as respects the prosecution o
every enterprise Of benevolent character
The wide spread rebellion which was SO on
crossing the attention of our communit,
and country one year ago, still remains un
subdued; and its influence throughout the
entire year in directing the sympathes and
charities Of our citizens into other and i'm.
portant channels, could but be expected to
operate most seriously in retarding tho pro.
Rress Of our work. The calls for pecuniary
aid TO assist our soldiers and provide for our
hospitals, have been almost inces.ant, and
have seemed to demand the first and EARL
cst attention of oil classes of community
1t is certainly, therefore, an occasion for
devout thanksgiving to the Divine Bene
factor that, amid all these difficulties, our
work hiss gone steadily forward through the
year, and that good degree Of progress has
been effected. The cause has been con
Quoted, as usual, through the medium of
branch or Township Societies, of which we
have thirteen in the county. Connected with
them arc one hundred and forty local or
unpaid school district agents, who annually
visit the districts assigned them, supplying
tho destitute and soliciting from every
friend donation to the cause.
Many Of these agents have been greatly
assisted by the county agent, who, too, ac
conpanied them in part or altogether
through their districts in the work Of can.
yass. Each Of these Township Societies
has connected with it well assorted demos.
itory OF Bibles for distribution Of business
annual and semi annual meeting. being
held throughout them all.
BY reference to the Treasurer's Report,
twill bs seen that the receipts Of this Soci,
city the past year have been eight hundred
aud sixty nine dolhrsa and thirty cents
The history Of this Society since the intro
duc,ion ofthe present plan Of operations
will not be without interest.
Belmont County Bible Society Is one Of
the Oldest auxliarias In our country, having
been formed in the month ofJanuary, 1878,
or lcss than two years after the organization
Of tho parent society in New York.
