Lincoln, Butler and the Exchange
of PriNOnerr.

General BUTLER says, in a communica-
tion to the rebel Commissioner OuLD, dated
Fortress Monroe, February IL, in effect,
that unless he [BUrLERl is recognized as
the agent ON the part Of the United States
for the exchange ofprisoners, no exchanges
will take place. To feel authorized to
make this statement may be very crafty
ing to General BUTLER, but it cannot but
be very mortifying to the friends and rela-
tives ofour soldiers who are languishing and
pining in Southern prisons, and to those
soldiers themselves.
The truth of this matter of the stoppage
of exchanges of prisoners should be known
10 the country. 1t lies in a nutshell. The
Confederate authorities have expressed a
willingness to exchange prisoners, man for
man, on equal terms. Why, then, does not
the exchange proceed? Simply, because
President LINCOLN appointed an agent of
exchange, BEN. BUTLER, whom he knew to
be SO odious to the Confederates that they
would not have anything to do with him.
This Mr.. LINCOLN knew beforehand, just as
well as he knows it now, and yet he ap-
pointed BUTLER, as lion purpose to prevent
exchanges, and to leave our brave soldiers
to suffer and die in Southern prisons, mere
ly to crafty spirit of obstinacy which he
and BUTLER justify as set-off to rebel OBJ
stinacy. There will yet be reckoning day
or LINCOLN, BUTLER and the rebel leaders

The editors of The Journal and The cypress
are disposed to be phunny over what they are
pleased to nominate shat big scarew We
confess that we are unable to see where the
laugh comes in. Regarding the matter in
far more serious light, we find much in
both papers, from time to time, well calcu-
lated to incite mobs. Our neighbors may
not intend anything of the kind: indeed,
we believe that they do not-for they know
very well, that II the Democratic Newspa-
pers Of this City are again mobbed, their
Establishments will, in all probability, 'go
down" also. In view Of this knowledge,
would It not bewel for our contemporaries
70 join us in exhorting all, to keep the peace,
and to aid in preserving order throughout
the City, Let them stop printing articles
that tend to evoke mobs; let them rather
pour, oil, upon the troubled waters. The
'sscares that they attempt to ridicule wasn't
half as big "a scare" as will come over
them, should there ever be another attack
upon TIE STATESMAN ESTABLISHMENT by a
mobi ssfFE ss'se & ,af
II is but justice o,all who are in any way
connected with this Paper to state, that no
attack by mob was apprehended on their
part; and, of course, that nobody was
,.scared." We were nota the Office on Sat-
urday night, and did not know that it had
been threatened by mob, until Monday
morning. Our Clerk had no intimation
that there had been any talk Of mob, un-
til few minutes before the soldiers came
to guard the Establishment. No one con-
hscted toith dis Paper made application for a
guard. rs
We dismiss this whole matter by repeat
ing what we said on Tuesday morning,
Feb. 10th: The Abolition leaders here I'M

The Superior Courts of Franklin
nud NfOufeOneY.v

Ever since the enactment Of the statute
authorizing the organization of the Supe-
rior Courts of Montgomery and Franklin
counties, at Dayton and Columbus, leg s.
lators from other counties have exhibited
q petty jealousy, that would be unbecoming
such an august body as even the present
Dayton City Council. We discover, from
the Legislative reports, that Col. Allison
has distinguished himself by offering bill
in the House to abolish these Courts. II
seems to us that there is enough legitimate
business before the General Assembly to
occupy its attention until the 10Th of March,
without accommodating into the infinite
realms of space for something upon which
to waste time and money. These Courts
under the present organization of the Court
of Common Pleas, are necessary to the
prompt transaction Of public business, and
until better arrangements for the disposi-
tion of legal business are made, the Legis-
lature should let well enough alone.--Day-

The following paragraph is taken from
private letter from Gen. BUTLER to a
member Of Congress, who had written to
him concerning FERNANDO WooD's propo-
sition to investigate some of his (Butler's)
doings:
Iwillrely on your friendship always to vote
in favor of having any official act of mine
investigated; such investigation will show
mistakes, blunders, and failures of j;dg-
ment innumerable, and for these must
suffer; but fear nothing else. should
even be willing for them to be investigated
by Fernando Wood, were 1t not for the
maxim, set thief to catch thief.
The General must have been in asingularly
candid mood when he wrote the foregoing.
We are not rude enough to question his
statement, that an Investigation will show
mistakes, blunders and failures of judgment
innumerable."

Be IL resolUed blythe General assembly ofths State
of Ohio That, after nearly three years Of trial, at
time in the history of our nations life, when the
wisdom, vaor and patriotism of every loyal man in
our government is requisite to preserve that life, we
deem it eminenty fit and proper to express our en-
tire confidence in the ability. iydiciousness and pat
riotism Of Abraham Lincoln, President Of tho United
States and that We most heartily endorse his proc
lamation, accompanying the annual message TO Com
gress, as furnishing feasible method for the
structon Of tho seeded States Of this Union.
This resolution was regarded by the Chase
men as an endorsement of Lincoln's claims
to a denomination, and the recommendation
of the committee that it be indefinitely
postponed was agreed to.

Lincoln Rcpulinted by the Ohio
.House Of Representatives.

BY reference to our Legislative Summary,
it win be seen that ABRAHAM LINCOLN has
been repudiated by the Ohio House of Rep
resentatives. A resolution was introduced
some time ago, looking to his denomination,
which was referred to the committee on
Federal Relations, at the time. On Wednes-
day, the 18th, that committee reported it
back, and recommended its indefinite post
ponement--andth the House, concurring with
the committee, did indefinitely postpone it.
CHASE is at the bottom Of this. The fight
between the friends of the President and
those Of his Secretary of the Treasury is
progressing. We shall see more Of it after
while.

the like spirit. The soldier skilled Cop

The Administration, it seems, has gwen
up the'conquest Of Charleston for the con-
Guest Of Florida. General GILMORE with
some ten thousand men Is now perambula-
ting the swamps of that State. What milf
tary purpose, so far as putting down the
rebellion Is concerned, took GILMORE into
Florida, it would puzzle anybody to coijec-
ture. But Mr.. LINCOLN probably judges
that. there is ''political necessity" for it
which, like his military necessity, justifies
all things, from the breaking down of the
Constitution to the breaking up of the
Union.
Florida Is one of the States marked out to
be areconstructedn on LINcoLN's one-tenth
plan, so that he may be sure of its electoral
votes. To effect this, the presence of large
armed force will be requisite. So General
SHERMAN's movement in Mississippiappears
to have similar purpose in view. The
abandonment of large portion of Tennes-
see to the rebels and the movement of a
grand expedition into the heart of Missis-
sippi, has rather stumped military sirite-
gists, though Abolition war editors have
been blowing about the death-blow it was
tostrike at rebellion and slavery together.
But the people have too long heard too
much of this sort of 'sound and fury signi-
flying nothing" to have any confidence
in it.
Mississippi, though reported conquered
once, must be re-conquered, and this time
in order to carry out LINcoLNs reconstruc-
tion plan, in order to prepareit for assisting
in his reelection along with his ''recon-
structedn Abolition governments in Arkan-
sas, Louisiana, Tennessee, etc. LINCOLN,
though joker, is sharp as politician, and
what he lacks in military strategy, he makes
up in political cunning. He had the next
Presidency and a second lease of the White
House for another term offour years evidentt
ly In view when he issued what is called his
Amnesty Proclamation. He did not care
about bringing back the seeded States into
the Union, but If he could make out of them
new LINCOLN States, itwould help him to
retain the Presidential throne, and ought,
he thought, to satisfy his party.

PRESIDENT LINcoLN's Lord Lieutenant of
Louisiana, General BANKS, has issued an
order, dated Headquarters, Department of
the Gulf, New Orleans, Feb. Q, 1894" pro-
mitigating regulations ''of compensated
plantation labor, pubic or private, during
the present year." The order relates prin-
cipally Of course to the blacks, whom it
compels to labor on the plantations, at eight,
six, five or three dollars per month, accord
ing as the laborer belongs to the first, Sec
ond, third or fourth class of hands. The
labor is compulsory, and is to be performed
under overseers. The system does not ap-
pear to differ much irits main points, ex-
cept that is new and untried, from the old
system under slavery which, we suppose,
Mr.. LINCOLN and General BANKS design it
shall supersede.
