DIED..


At Vinton on the morning Of December
18th, 1865, Mr.. HAMILTON II. BUTLER, in the
49th year of his age.
Mr. Butler was a native of Gallia county,
where be continued to reside until his death /;
He was brought up farmer. trained to habits
efindustry and economy, by which he aequir-
ed competency OF this worlds goods. His
early advantages of education were limited /;
yet, by his own efforts, he acquired a COM
mon business education so as to discharge the
duties of many important trusts. Being OF
muscular frame, physical strength and ar
dent temperament, he was able to accomplish
the most ardent and difficult undertakings.
He was thorough and outspOken Union man
throughout the late rebellion; and although
over the age required by law, to perform mil
itary duty; yet he volunteered his services,
when his country was invaded by the rebel
Gen. Morgan, and marched to the defence OF
his country As neighbor and friend he was
rarely equaled and never excelled. Always
ready and among the foremost in deeds OF
charity and benevolence. He leaves widow,
a widowed mother, q number of relatives and
friends to mourn his untimely end. 80 let
him rest, his faults lie gently on him."

~ A matter of business called us

I k~ A matter of business called US
to the neighboring village of Point
Pleasant on Saturday last. Step
ping on board the snug little steamer
Vtctress, we were soon landed at
the Virginia shore near the town,
and on entering it were surprised to
see a crowd of people on hand, and
all intent on business.
The place is rapidly rising Phoenix
like from its ashes and gives tokens
/ of life and energy that are crafty
ing to any lone who is alive himself
to the duties of the age.
! The Wooden Factory we found to
be an established fact, not merely on
paper, but backed up by men OF
wealth and judgment.
That measure being a fixed fact,
the citizens are now turning their at
tention to the construction of Ma
rine Railway and Ship Yard. We
found several friends who talked
'Msrine Railway" excellently, and
very shortly convinced US that the
harbor afforded by the Kanawha
river at its junction with the Ohio
is the fnest on the river from Cairo
to Pittsburg On this point we
''gave in" On other particulars
they were equally lucid and we
finally concluded that Point Pleasant
is about as pleasant a point to make
as can be found.
We would say much more on this
POINT were it not that some of its
most entcrprising citizens specially
requested us to say nothing editori-
ally about what they were at, for
fear the Gallipolisians might U0ke
up suddenly and find out what they
were at, which if they did, of course
their well-known enterprise would
nip the Marine Railway in the bud
DC. OF course having given our
promise we must decline saying any,
thing further.

H Congress has been in session
four weeks, but as yet done very
little more than organizing and get
ting ready for work. The session is
likely to be long one. Matters OF
greater importance, than ever came
before that body, since the days OF
the Revolution, are likely to be pre-
sented. We trust that time will be
taken to carefully weigh and digest
these subjects, so as to render future
legislation unnecessary. 'Make
haste slowly" should be the rule
adopted by Congress. The people
visited patiently for four years to see
the close of the rebellion. They will
wait four years longer to see the ad-
yantages gained by it, so fully Sc
cured that in the future, all danger
of a repetition of slavery and seces-
sion with their fruits, may be saved
to those who are to come after us.
Thus far, all is well. The South
finds that her Copperhead allies in
the North are powerless, and that
the doors of Congress are closed
against her members until they can
present men with pure hearts and
hands undefiled with blood. 1t is to
be hoped that the present ruling of
the House on that point may remain
unchanged.

~Mr Horace Waters o

E Mr.. Horace Waters of New
York, 4s1 Broadway, has placed on
our liable eleven choice pieces ei
music, the words of one of which, as
appropriate to the season, we append
to this notice. Lovers of music yill
find at Mr.. Waters the most exten.
sive variety in the Union.
The following beautiful ballad en-
titled "Santa Claus" win commend
itself to every reader.
Old Santa Claus ceases to urge along,
His feet footed steeds, with the voice and
throng,
He bitches his team to the chimney top
CBeRCs.
o Santa Claus is clever old sprite,
He comes to the dear little people by night;
crown,
As merry as he, when the sun goes down.
At midnight, when childhood in slumber
seems
To gather sweet flowers from the land Of
dream;
Then on the roof Of the house he'll hop,
And slyIy descend from the chimney top.
CHoRus.
o, SAINTS Claus is ascleyer old sprite, dc.
On tip-tOe he stands on the peaceful spot,
Where childhood reposes IN crib or cot;
He fills up the stocking, he Grams the sock,
With candies and toys for the household flock,
CHORUS.
o, Santa Claus is clever old sprite, &c.
His favors all scattered, he hastens back,
The way that he came,-up the sooty track;
And never his mission Of love shall stop,
While there is home with chimney top.
Chorus.
o, Santa Cllus is q cleyer old sprite, &c.
Now busy as bees in their honied hives,
The little folks gather when morn arrives;
The merry eye sparkles. the sweet voice rings,
As stockings are searched for the wondrous
things.
CHoRUs.
o, Santa Claus is 4 clever old sprite, &c.
They wonder, when bringing his dainty
freight,
He never comes in by the door or gate;
And hope he will never be forced TO stop,
And die in the smoke OF the chimney top.
CHORUS.
o, Santa Claus is a clever old sPrite, DC.
