Grant and Butler.

The Siamese Twins published yesterday, by
simultaneous impulse, list of generals, who
support the President, beginning with Grant,
and another beginning with Butler, of those
who support Congress. The accuracy and
care with which these two lists are drawn up,
will be amply illustrated by recent utterances
of the two men selected to head the rival col
umns. In his conversation with Mr.. Dingley,
recently published and not copied into either
the Advertiser or argus, Gen. Grant said
In my judgment, the tone of certain men
and certain papers at the North is such as to
do incalculable mischief in making the late re-
bells believe that they are just as much enti-
tied to rule as ever, and that if they will only
stand by what they are pleased to call their
''rights," they will have help from the North.
This is only playing over again the incipient
stages of the rebellion.
If this is supporting the Presidents policy,
then the Press may be counted among its
warmest supporters, which Heaven forbid!
In a lecture delivered at the Boston Music
Hall, Gen. Butler said few weeks ago.
The propositions of Congress seem on the
face well enough but one is forced to exclaim
alJer reaQng Lnem JnrOugn: Nv here's the rest
of them ?" as one would say when his servant
brings him his coffee and bread for breakfast,
"Where are the eggs and the meat~ Let us
turn to another plan Demonstration and re-
organization.
If this rather brusquc way of treating the
result Of the protracted deliberations of our
foremost statesmen is Gen. Buffers method Of
supporting the Congressional policy, it certain
ly is not ours.
After this specimen, it is perhaps, needless
to examine the catalogue further. The party
which resolved the war failure and which
has now committed the suicidal error of adopt
ing policy plainly calculated to render it a
failure, cannot count upon much sympathy
from the men who fought to put down a rebel
lion. which in its incipient stages, as General
Grant says, was characterized by the same
kind OF Democratic talk which is loudly prev
alent now. 1t is unwise for the Democratic
press to draw attention needlessly to the sus-
picion and disgust with which their course

Gov. BRAMLErr OF KENTUCKY ON THE
FREEDMEN's BUREAU few days ago,
Judge S. S. Goodloe, of the City Court of
Lexington, under the statute OF Kentucky,
fined negro for having pistol in his pos
session. Mr.. Tinkerton, agent of the Freed
mems Bureau, took the case in hand and
notified Judge Goodloe that all such statutes
were no longer valid, and requested him to
restore the negro his pistol and remit the
fine. Judge Goedloe declined to do this
not recognising any rule of procedure in his
court but that of the statutes of Kentucky.
The matter was at this stage referred to Gov
ernor Bramlette, who, in answer to Judge
Goodloe, SAYS: "You take the correct view
of your duty. You have no power to make,
unmake, or amend laws, but must administer
them as they exist. This you and all other
officers should do, regardless of the men,
aces Of the agents of bureau which has no
legal existence in Kentucky. The powers
assumed by super-ofhcials and agents Of over
riding the laws and civil authorities Of the
State, could be firmly met and resisted in
every legal form. The whole negro popu-
lation being now free, are by our laws, as
they now exist, secured and protected in
their rights of life, liberty, and property.
The slave code has nothing 10 do with the
free negro now, and never did have. Ihaye
every reason to believe that the present
General Assembly will adopt suitable and
wise provisions for the benefit of the freed
men. Whether they do or not Mr.. Pinker-
ton ought to know that il is not your or his
province 10 make, amend, or disregard ex-
issing laws. Mr.. Pinkerton would better
subserve the true interests of the negro, and
Of the society and State in which he lives by
locking up his bureau and losing the key,
than by the course he seems bent on pursu-
ing" The Governor has turned the whole
matter over to the legislature.

THE crazy rates at which rents are adj
vanced in New York is exhibited in the
following incident related in the Journal Of
Commerce. "a dry-goods firm have rented
store for the current year at $4,000. The
owner called on them a few weeks since TO
ask their intentions for another year. They
expressed wish to remain if the terms were
made agreeable. He offered to treat them
fairly, and suggested that $40 900 per annum,
for three years lease, would be reason.
abs advance. They Indignantly refused to
treat, and he lef. Aher few hours search
for another place, they concluded to pocket
their indignation and accede to the terms.
Calling on the owner Cor this purpose, they
learned that they were too late, the premises
having been leased for three years at $50, 900
per annum. A further search left them
hopeless Of securing anything more eligible,
and they have purchased the lease of the
new parties for bonus of $4,000"

WHITE LABOR VS.. BLACK Yesterday
we met several friendswho are large planters
in Mississippi, who have been here for some
days trying to secure negroes to work their
plantations, but had, as they informed us,
given up the idea in despair, rs in the first
place, they had to employ negro agents at
exorbitant prices to drum up the negroes,
and after they had been found they demanded
on the spot bounty" and in nearly every
case those who received this bounty
dumped "-or, to use English, went offwith
the bonus, and failed TO appear at the time
appointed; and in this manner the few who
were secured cost the planters 80 much that
their labor would fail TO be remunerative,
and in this dilemma they had resolved 70 try
white labor, and leave Sambo to sun himself
on the corners at his leisure, and telegraphed
to New York for emigrants, a large number
Of whom are expected to arrive during the
week. To them, the mooted question Of
"wili the negro work" has been solved,

friends Of the negro TO the contrary,

phis any day would satisfy the most skeptical
mind that Sanibo has no fancy for the cotton
or cane field, but prefers to bask in the sun

GES. HOWARD, in a recent lecture de-
livered before Boston audiences, is reported
10 have said:
We should exercise kindness. sympathy anC
liberality toward the Southern people, and be
magnanimous toward the whole South without
distinction of race or color. sil
All the sympathy and magnanimity o.
his listeners, as far as it had been exhibited,
had been against their own race and exclu-
siyely for the blacks. Gen. Howard coun.
selled them TO think equally well of the
white man. That is well for Gen. Howard
considering that he was speaking to Sum.
ner's constituents. 1t presents a striking
contrast to the position taken by certain
radicals in Tennessee, who, whilst they have
studiously avoided the slightest exhibition
of magnanimity towards the great body Of
their own people--even insisting upon d.
vesting them of one Of the dearest rights OF
citizenship-they have become so enamored
with the negro as to express desire to
place him upon an equal footing with the
most favored class at the ballot box. 1t is a
wonder that such excesses and absurdities
does not shock even their own blunted sem
sibilities. ffae

Coss OF Protection.

II is gratifying to notice that the great
West is awakening 10 the enormity Of the
protective system, and that il is largely dis
cnssed in the journals without distinction Of
party. A correspondent Of the Chicago
Tribune, Radical, thus computes the cost Of
Protection:
Let me illustrate IT, The law says shall
pay a tax Of sixty per cent. on wollen cloth,
while the maker Of the cloth shall pay to
the Government only five per cent. Of this
tax. Fifty-five per cent then is taken from
me and given 20 him. To make the case
palmer, suppose the cloth can be imported
Tor one dollar per yard. Government steps

This gentleman, 40 we'll known TO the citi-
zens cf Nashville, nov the Representative
of the Louisville, KY, district in Congress,
has no SAVIOR of patriotism about him, in
the estimation of the republican parsons who
adon the present Congress, as win be seen
by the following episode which occurred in
the proceedings Of that body the other day:
Mr. Rousseau rising to privileged ques-
ton, read from the remarks of Mr.. Grim
mel, made yesterday. as follows: History re-
peats itself; whether the gentleman, Mr..
Rousseau, was four years in the war Oh the
Union side or four years on the other side !;
but say he degraded his State, and uttered
sentiments thought unworthy of an Ameri-
can officer, when he said that he would do
such an act on the complaint of q negro
against him. Only this much was read, but
the preceding remark to which this referred
was as follows: The honorable the gentle
man from Kentucky, Mr.. Rousseau, de-
clared yesterday, as / caught his language
that If he were arrested on complaint Of a
negro and brought before one of the agents
Of this Bureau, when he became free he
would shoot him. Mr.. Rousseau said: / pro-
nounee the assertion that / have degraded
myself as a false, foul SANDER, and uD-
worthy to be uttered by any gentleman on
this floor.
Mr.. Grinnell said: referred to the gen.
tleman's (Mr. RS remarks as 1 understood
them, the gentleman having withheld them
from the Globe had no desire to do in
justice. criticised the gentleman's Lam
guage, and stand by that criticism; if did
not correctly represent what he said, beg
pardon.
Mr.. R.-My object was not to get an apol-
ogy, but TO say what have said.
Mr.. G.-The gentleman's language is no
ofense. Istand on my rights as member
of this House, and discharge my duties as |
understand they should be discharged
When criticised the language of the gen.
tleman from Kentucky, did SO from sense
of duty. thought that language unworthy
of an American officer and of his own
State.
Mr.. RI understand that the gentleman
is a preacher of the gospel, and yet be lacks
charity toward all men. i am new mem
Der of this House and have endeavored to
behave with the utmost courtesy. 1t does
come with exceedingly bad grace from the
gentleman who slept in safety while others
were fighting on the battlefield to make
such remark concerning me. He could
not exercise the most ordinary charity, but
when gentleman had gone out of his seat
he got up to insult him, contrary to the rules
Of the House
Mr. Grinnell-I have only to say that the
gentleman has paraded his profession of
arms before this House. Ihaye not paraded
mine. The gentleman says am clergy
man. / have to answer, was man before
was minister. claim to be man and
an American citizen, and l am not ashamed
of my profession, and stand by my con-
stituents my principles, and my country.
