me Press ON ButIer.

The loyal press of the country almost
unanimously denounce the insolent and
vindictive war waged by the self-consti-
tuted hero of Fort Fisher upon the Lieu
tenant General for telling the truth. The
Toledo Blade says;
HBen. Butler is organizing his forces for
a war upon Gen. Grant. Butler, if ne
keeps on long enough h, will kill himself
His proposed assault on Gen. Grant is
suicide. He accomplished good in New
Orleans and in consideration thereof he
was tenderly dealt with for his blunders
in the field.
"There is no use in the harri-karri he
proposes-there is no necessity for his rip
ping up the bowelA of his reputation
Gen. Grant always knows whereof he
speaks, and is as ugly customer in Re
ports as he is in the field. In the coming
contest, Butler Us. Grant, We have no doub
the popular voice will be for the Illinois
hero"

..Ohio.s Record i'm 1be HcncI,ion =,

We learn from the Columbus Journal
that Adjutant General Cowan has ready
for the press, and will ask the Legislature
to authorize the publication of volume
with the above title. 1t will contain an
accurate list of all soldiers from Ohio reg
iments, dates of enlistment and muster,
age, and dates of promotion, transfer,
death or discharge and history of each
regiment from its organization to its mus
ter-out, together with general history of
the State of Ohio, in military view,
since the commencement of the rebellion.

The Last Marfvr

The Democracy have found new mar
tyr. They have been making much cap
ital out of the arrest and trial-by court
martial of one Martin Baker, of Licking
county, for desertion; claiming that it
was done because he had instituted suit
against the judges of election in his town
ship on the charge of unlswfulIy refusing
to receive the ballot of a legal voter, they
having rejected his vote under the act dis
franchising that class of Democrats known
in classic nomenclature as 'iskedaddlers."
A writer in the Columbus Journal shows
that Baker was not only deserter from
the draft after his name had been drawn.
but that he emphaticelly told the judges of
election that he 'sssas drafted and run a,oay.
and went to Canada to keep out of the
service" He was convicted of desertion,
and has been appropriately sentenced
We sympathize deeply with the afflicted
father whose gray hairs this untoward
event is likely to bring down in sorrow to
the grave, for we understand that he, with
heroic devotion worthy Spartan moth
er, was willing and anxious to sacrifice
his last son in the "last ditch" and de-
sired Martin the martyr, instead of migra-
ting to Canada, to go South and aid his
friends, the Davis Democrats, to slight it
out on that line.T

The Representatives from Tennessee

The Representatives from Tennessee.
The disposition which has been made
of the case of the Tennessee delegation by
the House of Representatives is, so far as
it goes, highly satisfactory. Their Gre
dentials, on motion of Mr. Raymond of
New York, who introduced them, were
referred to the Joint Committee on Re-
construction by vote eft I25 to AZ, the
Democrats voting solid against the refer
ence. We are sorry to see that Mr.. Hub
bell of Ohio again voted with the Demo-
Gratis on this question. A motion was
then made to admit the individuals COM
posing the delegation to the floor of the
house This motion, so worded as not to
recognize these individuals as rightful
claimants of seats, passed the House by
l52 to Sc, its opponents being radical re-
publicans, among whom we observe the
names of Messrs. Clark, Lawrence,
Schenck and Spalding of this State.

crate States


crate States.
The House Committee on the late Con.
federate States, appointed under the reso-
luton of Mr.. Stevens as passed in its
amended form by the Senate on Tuesday
and by the House on Wednesday, was an
nounced yesterday. Its majority is
thoroughly radical, and the men who COM
pose it are among the ablest in the House.
Thaddeus Stevens, of Pennsylvania, is,
as everybody had expected, its chairman,
and there is not more radical man in the
entire House than he. He is ably sus-
tained by such men as Bingham, of this
State, Morrill,, Of Vermont, Boutwell,, of
Massachusetts, Conklin, of New York.
and Washburne, of IIlinois-men who
stand among the first in the House, for
ability and craftsmanship, and whose views
on the reconstruction are thoroughly
sound. Mr.. Blow, of Missouri, who is the
seventh Republican on the list, is not
classed as a radical, but will probably act
with the Republican majority. The only
Democrats on the Committee are Messrs.
Grider, of Kentucky, and Rogers, of New
jersey, both bitter pro-slavery and pro-
rebel malignants, but pewerless for evil.
In the hands of such men as these the in
tetests involved in reconstruction are
safe.
