GEN. BUTLER.-Gen. Butler returned again to-

just four years to . day since he was commits
stoned . Major. General. He had prepared his
resignation, but upon being assured from very
high quarter that he may yet be serviceable to
the country, he has concluded to withdraw its
tender for the present.
We clip the above from q Washington tele
gram. We hope it is true. we believe "that he
may Jet be serviceable to the country" and hope
that President johnson may see At to send him
to Richmond as Military Governor. We knew
that such an appointment would meet with the
hearty approval Of nine tenths Of the loyal peo-
pie in the country. General BUrLER dare hang
traitors and he would SO govern Virgins tina,
Union men would be protected in their rights,
which will not be the case il WE,TzEL and Judge
CAMPBELL are allowed to manage matters to
suit themselves, or il any milk and water policy
10 pursued by our rulers. We know that traitors
and their sympathizcrs would not like such an
appointment, but as President JOHNSON has said
'mercy to the individual may be cruelty to the
State" @.

THE KENTUCKY ELECTION.

The following the Cincinnati Gazette
(ultra republican, while it acknowl-
edges the defas of their party in Ken
lucky, gives six excellent reasons for
it--reasons that should damn any par
" that ever existed:
You have received by telegraph tho
result of the elections. / give the fol-
lowing reasons which in my mind ac-
count for tho non success of the Union
party:
First At the commencement OF
the campaign Gen. Fry took grounds
too extreme and radical on tho anti
slavery side to win votes from Ken
tucky people. They are yet too ten
der, and too much under the old slav-
cry preiudices and manner of thought
to swallow the emancipation pill with
out great deal Of coating,
Second. The military authorities,
with very little discretion, gave out
"passes" to negroes for ton days be-
fore the election, filing Lexington
with crowd Of unemployed negroes,
thus embittering the pro-slauery. men
and giving them an opportunity. to
appeal to the predjudices Of the poor
whites.
Third. Three days before the cleo
ton two full negro regiments wero
brought t. Lexington and encamped
within half mile of the Court House.
The mon were permitted to roam over
the country robbing farms and farm
houses, and insulting those who at
tempted TO dissuade them from such
acts.
Fourth. On election day tho ne.
groes wero allowed to crowd the city,
with and without arms, and by their
presence irritato the people whose
minds were already infamed by poll
ticians. This induced many men to
vote the conservative ticket" and
caused many to remain away from the
poll.
Fifth. The military auiiorit.os OK
Lexington have been, during the alb
senco of General Hobson, exceedingly
inefficient, and very indiscreet. Those
in command seem to have had no care
as 10 the consequences Of their neglect
aud bad management.
Sixth. The presence Of the military
at tho polls had all the bad effect that
military interferehce' could have up.
on the voters, and without any of its
benefits. They were ordered to sup
port the civil authorities in kee,ing
rebels from voting. As tho authorities
were rebels themselves, they made no
cal upon them, and the rebels voted
at pleasure.
think every clar minded Union
man will voueh tor tho truth Of the
above reasons for the defeat Of the
Union party in this State

Is a National Debt Capitan

The Government of Great Britain
has debt Of about four thousand
millions of dollars, which was con-
tracted FOR the prosecution of war
individuals in the nation delivered to
tho Government, beef, wheat, iron,
horses sulphur, leather, and other ar
ticles needed in military operations,
and received the Government bonds
in exchange. The articles were de-
stroyed or consumed in war; the vals
ue that was in them was annihilated.
In the place Of si,000,000,000 of
property in material wealth, the capt.
talists of the nation found themselves
in possession Of Government bonds TO
that amount. These bonds arc sim
ply a pledge on tho part of the Cow
ernment to exact tho interest on the
amount from the nation by taxation.
Mr. Jay Cooke has recently issued
a pamphlet in which he takes the
ground that national debt is an ad-
dition to the capital Of the nation, and
the argument is based wholly on the
fact that the bonds are saleable for
cash. If nation is able to pay the
interest on its bonds, and If the Gov
ernment has the ability and tho will
to make it pay, of course its bonds,
in moderate sums, will sell at some
price, but their value depends on the
continued ability of the nation to pro-
duco wealth. The principle difference
between an individual debt and gov
ernfnent debt is. that ono is an obliga-
tion 70 return property already in OK

MICHIGAN.
Prom tho Chicago Republieas

toih tno Nh'Shbo h'Htph~h'f
Michigan possesses in remarkable
degree the elements Of prosperity
The state is surrounded on all sides
by navigable waters, and intersected
by portions of three great lines of
railway; and though it is not travers-
cd by largo rivers, its streams are all
useful in driving mills for lumber,
-four and plaster, besides numerous
factories. 1t abounds in pine forests,
in its northern counties, and valuable
forests of oaks abound in the southern
portion Of the State. 1t is uhdcrlaid
with beds of excellent limestone, etea
rywhere afioriing material for build
ing, and ample quantities for export.
In almost every town of considerable
sizo in the State, stone buildings indi-
cate that quarries are near at hand.
There are, also, large beds Of btu
minous coal, equaling in extent tho
entire coal fields Of Great Britain,
which is estimated at $4,000 square
miles. Still, except at Jackson, but
little attention has been paid 10 coal
mining.
Inexhaaustiblo quantities Of sui
phate of lime or plaster of Paris are
also found i'll the middle and western
counties. The production of this
article has already engaged an enor-
nous amount of capital, and furnish
es employment for railways, boats,
qnarrymen, and millers. Its use en-
riches tho soil Of Michigan and ena-
bles the farmers to reap magnificent
harvests. The beds of it are now
worked largely near Grand Rapids,
aud Judging from the immense quar-
ries there and elsewhere in the State;
as well as the grea. demand from
abroad, it is easy to predict a pres
percus future for those engaged in
this industry.
There are exhaustless beds Of salt
at three places in this State, but prin-
cipally at Saginaw So rich are tho
waters of tho Saginaw salt wells, that
salt can be manufactured and sent to i
New York at price less than the same
article can be furnished from Ononda-
ga. We have not tho estimates be-
fore us now, but Michigan newspa-
per recently put down the product for
the year 1865 at 5000, 900 barrels
This, be 1t remembered, is in the very
beginning of the business.
All the world knows Of the wonder
iul mines of iron, copper and silver,
not only along the shores of Lake Su-
perior, but extending through many
hundred square miles adjacent. Not
a millionth part of this vast wealth
has yet boon developed, though tho
estimated products Of the mines from
the beginning exceed sI0,000,000
Surely, if it had been problem to
furnish State with treasures richer
than gold or diamonds, it could hard
ly have been better solved than now
III Michigan. The people of that
State are justly proud OF the natural
which have so bounteous-
ly fallen to their share. Michigan is
like ship iron-ribbed and copper
bottomed, or like splendid building
with marble foundations and filled
with everything good With peo-
pie remarkable for intelligence and
her future history, like
that of the past, must abound in all
the characteristics OF substantial pro.
gress.

Wharf.-The wheat in this vicinity
seems to have been damaged by the
insects, by the rains, and by shrink
ing, to greater extent than was at
first supposed. We have heard of
fields that were deemed not worth
harvesting. Sixteen acres on the Ag-
ricultural Farm yielded only eighty
bushels. But one can form no cor
rect Judgement Of the crop in a large
section of country without general
examination. The new wheat has
not yet appeared much in market. A
small lot badly grown, was bought at
rs cents. Old wheat yesterday was
worth 81, so, and buyers would prob
ably be willing to pay for sound new
wheat about 81 Lansing RpuJh-

The weather was dark and gloomy
with heavy clouds brOoding over the

throughout the day. Towards night the
clouds become more thin, and the moon

The enemy's battery was replied TO bv
two guns from the upper forts, and OBJ
served silence throughout the rest of the
night. The night grew darker, and a
neavy rain set in al nine o'clock, which
continued with slight lntermission, the
storm increasing through the night.
Shortly after midnight araving nOrther,
driving a sleety rain, set in, and the
darkness became intense,
The rain continued and the cold in
creased until morning. Had the enemy
meditated an attack ne has certainly had
weather TO suit him this time, as il was
everything from calm moonlight TO a
rain storm and pitchy darkness. The
weather Monday morning was certainly
Dracing enough for brisk exercise.
Two spies were captured during Sun

Occasional firing was heard through the
night, directed TO the enemy's scouts.
Yesterday the steamer Eugene arrived
at our city, with subsistence and supplies
for our troops, chiefly for the reinforce

The weather continued dark, cloudy
and cold, and decidedly wintry through
out the day yesterday. The usual
