GEN. BUTLER COMPELLED TO Dis
GORGE THE $50, 900 IN GoLD.-It will
be recollected by our readers that
among the many high-minded acts of
peculation and confscation which
Gen. Butler was guilty of in his reign
III New Orleans, in 1862 and 1868,
was his breaking open bank vault in
that city and taking from it $50, 600
in gold, belonging, we believe, to the
firm of Smith & Brother sum
which never found its way, as it was
alleged, into the Treasury Depart
ment, but remained in the capacious
pockets of the General Time passed
on, and it so happened the returned
merchant caught the General in New
York two years afterward, and insti-
tnted legal proceedings to recover his
treasure. After q severe litigation,
in which Butler did his best to hold
on to the coveted spoil, he was com
PEELED to disgorge, and pay over to
Smith & Brother their money. If all
his victims in New Orleaus and Vir-
ginia could be equally successful,
Gen. Butler would not now be in a
condition to purchase mill-sites and
go into the cotton manufacturing
business, which he is now doing in
Richmond, according to report
Cincinnati Enquirer.

The Issue Made ,Up.

The Radical Convention, which con.
vened at Wooster on the 18th inst. 70.
nominated Martin Welker as the Negro :
Suffrage, Radical Disunion Candidate.ior /
Congress in the 18th District. The issue
is therefore, now fairly presented to the
White people of the district whether
they shall be placed upon equality with
negroes or retain their superiority as Civ,
en- them by the Creator,
John B. Young, Of Medina county. Is
the White Mans Candidate. He main.
tains that white man is superior to a
nigger, and despisss the efforts of 5VeiS'
ker and the Bump Congress to do what
God in his infinite wisdom never design .
ed--degrade the white man to the lsvd
of the negro. The "member from Afri.
ca" and his malignant opposition to the
white cisizeus Of the country has made
him "Massa" among the niggers Of
Oberlin and the Radical uigger disunion-
lists generally in the District. Niggers
are allowed to vote in Oberlin, and will
roll up their white eyes and black votes
in contempt for "the poor white trash.D
Welker, if not "culled cuss" by pa.
tivity is one by adoption. His reeord is
complete on the subject The very first
opportunity he had in Congress to show
his contempt for the white population,
he voted 10 give the negro, in the Dis.
trict Of Columbia, the right to uote, when
he well knew that the whole mass Of the
white citizens there had by vote decided
that negroes should net vote in the Dis
trict Of Columbia. But Congress was al.
mighty in the matter, and SO the negroes
were made voters equal with white mep,,
and at every election they scent the polls
at Washington. Thad Stevens is q mig.
ger man, and Welker had only to obey
Stevens "little bell" and vote for negro ,
suffrage. He cared nothing for the In,
anielable rights Of the white people Of
Columbia, nor does he care for them ip
this District Ho has nigger on the e
brain. With other members Of the Rumps
Congress all his energy is given to impose
upon the white man and dignity the ne. ~
gro. Think of these facts, honorable
white men, and beware the day you f6p. e
