A singular circumstance connected with
Gen. Butler g cotton speculations has come
to light. 1t seems that the chief of Gen.
Shepley's Staff, G. II. Johnston, resigned
several months since to enter, as Buffers
chief agent, into the business Of buvinp
cotton from the rebels in North Carolina
He remained at this long enough to make
over $3.50, 900 as his share, which he de.
posted in the First National Bank of Nor
folk. A few days ago the Military Com.
mission, instituted by General Grant to
investigate the proceedings of Gen. Butler
relative to cotton, got wind of Mr.. John
ston. He heard that they would call upon
him soon, but not intending to be outdone
by theG[ he drew all his money from the
bank and decamped in the Baltimore boat.
They telegraphed to the authorities at
Baltimore TO arrest and send him back to
Norfolk, but the shrewd Johnston did not
60 on the boat further than Fortress Mon.
roe, where he took the Washington boat
and landed at Annapolis. No one knows
his whereabouts, although he is anxiousIy
awaited here. The Commission has prov.
en- that Butler received twu-fifths of oil
cotton brought here, his brother.in-law
one-fifth, and middle men, Of which John
ston was one, two-fifthS, the Government
getting nothing. You may expect even
more astounding revelations than these.

FREEDOM IN MARYLAND.-Maryland is a
free State and the emancipation Of her
slaves works splendidIy. Abolitionists con-
ferred an inestimable blessing upon her
when they restored her slaves to liberty.
Her freedmen Ee enjosing themselves in
a manner that must be pleasing in the
eyes Of their liberators. 1t shows they
fully appreciate their new and improved
condition, are making the most Of it, and
arc worthy Of increased efforts in their be-
half The treasure that has been expend-
ed, the crimes that have been committed
and the blood that has been shed to free
them, have not been wasted. Oh, no. 1t is
glorious to bankrupt nation, pauperlze
people, desolate country and cripple
and slaughter millions of white men in or
der to free "worthless and irrespon>i
BILE blacks. 1t is all Abolition glory and
we have no desire to share it. 4 cores
pendent of the New York Times gives
this lattcring account Of the condition Of
free Maryland:
"The liberated slaves are enjoying their
libcrty-as they understood tin the fullest
sense Of the word, and have usurpcd the places
nt their former masters. AS general thing,
they are a worthless, irresponsible class, and
the blacks who were formerly free are worse,
If anything. than the ex slaves. Neither lass
as yet seem TO recognize any obligations they
may be under TO employers. and, therefore, no
dependence can be placed upon them. In a
word, knowing the whites to be at their mercy
they do inst as they please, and ask no favurs,
but consider they are doing II favor to work at
ALL"

GoOD.--In the Pennsylvania Legisla.
ture the Abolition amendment to the Con-
stitution was ratified BY a strict party
vote, the Democrats opposing it to man;
and their constituents have held meetings
approving their action. 1t is said there
is strong feeling in that State against
the amendment, and if the question we're
submitted to the people they would vote
against it almost unanimously-many Re.
publicans having expressed their opposi-
ton to it. The Democrats in Congress
who voted for it have been censured and
repudiated by their constituents.

hardships and suFcrings -for their loss of

and positive testimony of Gen. Butler on
this point. He says in his closing cor.
respondence with Mr.. Ould, the Confede.

were abruptly broken off:

He says "the rebels were ready to cx.
change all the prisoners held by them,
man for man." and would have done it,
but for this "obtrusivc and demonstra.
tive" introduction Of an unpleasant con-
troversy "for the purpose of preventing
and stopping the exchange" Butler was
acting by authority Of the President and
was carrying out his wishes; had con.
suited him and knew he was opposed to
an exchange Of prisoners, and in compl-
ance with the Presidents wishes Butler
provoked an unpleasant controversy for
"thc purpose Of preventing aud stopping
the exchange" According to Buffers
testimony the Confederatcs were forced
