The present contract does aot provide for the

General Butler and tie Gold
Seizure at Nesy Orleans.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer;

FROM the Phl.adeiphid inquirer
has been generally ammo unccd that Major
General Butler has settled with the parties who
claimed $50 900 in gold seized by him as proper
ty of the United States, while he was III command
nj New Orleans. Genera; Butler has received
much obloquy upon account oithe original trans
action, it oeiug assumed that he had converted the
coin to his own use. When he sued to recover
possession of the sum, he pleaded that the seizure
was on behalf of the United States. TIE money be-
ing suspected to be portion Of the sum abstract
ed by secessiouists from the United States mint at
New Orleans on the breaking out Of the rebellion.
The recent pa ayment to the parties claiming was
made, il is now announced, upon their declaration
that they were satisfied that General Butler had
actcdnpon information which he believed, and as
the agent of the Government. The only thing
that they required WAS proof that the money had
not been appropriated to the use of General But
Ter, and yet remained intact. Upon being salts
fed of tn at, they offered to withdraw the suit on
the paynicnt of the original sum, without claim
for interest, damages. or costs. This evidence
was furnished them, the money having been on
special deposit in the Bank at Boston, ever since
| il had been sent from New Orleans. General
Butler said that for three years he had defended
the claim in the interest of the Government; but,
as the latter had not taken possession OF the mon
ev, and has refused to assume the responsibility
which he had undertaken upon this account, he
felt himself at liberty to relieve himself from an
unpleasant position. The money was therefore
paid to the claimants, just as il had been seized
| and the suit was Withdrawn. General Butler has
been a much abused man on many accounts, par
ticularly for his public measures. 1t is but Jus
that in this instance. in which his private integrity
was attacked, his justification and discharge from
all accountability for the gold seizure at New Or
leans, should be known.

MYSTERIOUS MURDER.

FROM Inc Lafayette journal, ZUtn lnst.
We are panied to be compelled to announce an
other OF the numerous murders and rObberies whcl.
are becoming SO alarminsly frequent throughout
the country, and one that from the mystery sur
rounding it, and the fact of its being almost in our
mi1st, has creted more than the usual degree OF
excitement. The facts we obtained them, arc
as follows: On Sunday evening, two young men
named Abner Phillips and John W. Huff, living
near the Wabash bridge on the Louisville, New
Albany and Chicago Railroad, we're passing up the
track, and when about half way between the canal
and river bridges, they discovered the dead oody
Of man lying in the Glitch on the east side of the

the ditch. How long the body.had lain there it 5
impossible even to conjecture. II may have been
for several days. until the river fell. the water
in the ditch was quite deep, in consequence Of back
water. An examination of his wounds shows five
or six ugly gashes about his head, evidently made
with club, and a confusion on the left hand.
His pockets we're turned inside olt. and not a
single scrap of paper or any thing else could be
found upon the body that would give clue as 20
who he was. or where he came from. The whole
affair is yet wrapped in impenetr2ble mystery,
and who the murderers were viii perhaps never be
known, until the great day when all things are re-
vealed. The body of the unfortunate man is now
laying at the south entrance ofthe Court House for

Although our Democratic friends are jubila ut

up those relative gains which som9 how never
bring them any nearer to a majority. the Republi

both Mr.. Lincoln's in 1864, and the estimate made
this year by the Republican State Committee
after their canvass of the State. The New Yorh
Herald explains the phenomena as follows. in al
article, which shows the impossibility of DO
ing any thing more with the Democratic party:
