GEN. BuTLER AND GEN. GRANT
The published note from Gen. Butler to
Gen, Grant, declining an invitation to his
party, is fabrication. The Washington
correspondent of the Boston Journal says
that what Gen. Butler did write (verba.
tim) on the receipt Of an invitation from
Gen. Grant was this
seen. Butler has the honor to decline
the invitation Of Gen. Grant Gen. But.
Ter has now no desire for further acquain-
'aace.'
Gen. Grant good-naturedly destroyed
the curt note Of Gen Butler as soon as re-
ceived aud read, determined If it ever APP
peared IN print TO know positively that il
was furnished by Butler himself. Cher
ishing no personal ill-will toward Gen.
Butler, he invited him among other celeb.
rites, and feels that in SO doing he placed
himself right on the record.

A few weeks since lad named Wm,
Wells, II years of age, and girl Of 10
summers, named Mary Earle, both resi-

found by the police and taken back to
their parents. Young Wells was engaged
in selling newspapers, and his wife wa.
aiding to gain sustcnance by plying her
needle. They both stated that they were
