MORE THREATS.

At late Radical Convention held at Pitts
burg, Pa, Gen. B. F. Butler made speech in
which he talked quite Aippantly about hanging
Gen. Lee. He is reported as saying:
"As soon as the Southern communities have
shown a desire to be received back in an hum
BILE way-mark the 1ord-in an humble way,
for the clemency held out to them, because it is
for men who have erred to be humble-when
they acknowledged their mistakes, they should
be received, but not until then Mr. Davis is
perhaps by no means, the worst man in the
Southern Confederacy but he chose to have the
place of representative man; he played for an
Empire and staked bis life on the result, let him
pay the forfeit; (applause,) let it be known for
all time that no man shall plot against the Union
in the halls of the Congress of the United States
lApplause.) Gen. Lee left the army of the
United States and went into Virginia and was
at the head of the rebel forces of Virginia be-
fore bis State seeded, and carried her out at
the point OF the Layonet. Now, gents, we had
an Arnold and he escaped punishment, but he
did not remain here. We have, as it seems to
me, an equally guilty traitor. The question to
be decided in this instance is, whether his sur
render as prisoner Of war, when he was cap
tured, shall avail him against the folds of his
flag to take service On the side of the enemies OF
his country. (Cries of No NOD therefore
again say that would make example of this
man, so that no soldier hereafter should ever be
found to desert the. flag of his country. GGood,
and cheers. Now, then, fellow soldiers, what
shall be done with the soldier who deserts his
flag and takes with him the seorn of his COM
mander? Cries of hang him.l Shooting is
too good for him who deserts for the purpose of
taking command, or bribed by a higher command
in the armies of the enemies of his country"

JUDGE RUFFIN's LETTER.
CHARLOTTE, N. G.

We observe that very mischleyeus use naS
been made of this famous letter. The Northern
Radicals seize upon it with avldIty as.the opih-
ion of an eminent Southern jurIst when sustains
them in their course of opposition to the Presi-
dent : Il has recently been quoted at some
.lenotb by Thad Stevens to prove that the Pres
ident is usurper-that there is no legitimate
governments in any of the Southern States, and
that consequently Congress should proceed to
organize new Governments therein. This is
Enthusiastically logical deduction from the
teachings of Judge Rufin's letter. The letter
was also very Objectionable in tone and temper
We deeply regretted the appearance of the
letter at the time, especially after we learned
that it was. from the pen Of the venerable kx-
Chief Justice. We passed over the objection
able temper of the letter at the time because we
wished to avoid controversies of that character.
Our object as journalist has been to produce
harmony by avoiding every thing of the kind
We desired above all things to forget the past,
and unite our people upon the basis of President
Johnson's policy. We hoped that all the South
,ern people who supported that policy would act
with such prudence as to strengthen the Presi-
dents hands. But we have been disappointed
in our expectations. We have before had oc-
casion to deprecate the intemperance of por-
ton of the Southern Press. We cannot but
believe that it has done US much harm in em-
barrassing the President
We saw at the time what would be the con-
sequences of the teachings of Judge Ruffn' s
letter. We saw that if they were carried out to
their legitimate consequences they would be
destructive of the existing State government
This We attempted to show in our reply to the
letter, as well in some other articles called
forth by the discussion to which it gave rise
We, however, confined ourself strictly to the
argument We have always had an unbounded
respect for Judge Rufin, aud however widely
we may have differed with him, we never ques,
toned his patriotism. We think he must have
written the letter in question without due re-
fection-without stopping to consider what
would be the consequence Of it's teachings. We
cannot for one moment believe that if he had
foreseen the uses which have been made of ii
that he would have written it. 1t is certainly
very unfortunate both for him and the Southern
people that il ever saw the Gght.-SalisLury
North State.
It will be remembered that Judge Rufin's
letter was written and published to secure the
rejection of the new Constitution recently voted
on in this State. We agree with the North
State that the letter was an unfortunate one
1t has done harm. .s ~.

PAwNRD HER CHILD FOR LIouoR-The De
troit Post gives an account of the arrest in that
city of a young married woman for being drunk.
In order to satisfy the cravings of her appetite,
she had pawned her husbands clothing during
his absence; her wedding ring went the same
way; finally she went so far as to pawn her son, a
bright eyed handsome little fellow, three years
old. The mother refused to tell where she had
left him, and only after long search was he
finally recovered. The unfortunate woman was
placed in a charitable institution, where reform.
will be effected, if possible. The besotted wretch
who received child in exchange for liquor from
an inebriated woman, should also be placed in
an institution of another kind, and kept there, !
