A New York dispatch says: In
the suit against Gen. Butler, the
plaintiff Honeywell accuses But
Ter of compelling him to charter
the steamer Carlotta to his brothers
partner at $3.50 per diem: that SUBJ
sequently she was run on a private
voyage by Butler, after which he
compelled the plaintiff to take
50, 800 for the vessel, though she
was worth $40, 900, and his broth
er and partner received $4,000
from the government for her.
The other plaintiff, Kearney, of
New Orleans, alleges that Butler
compelled him to give his brother
$1,000 worth of naval stores,
which was paid for in Confederate
notes of $1,000 only, but which
notes Butler himself had previous
ly prohibited from being put in
circulation. After the stores were
delivered, Buffers brother con-
signed them to Boston, where they
were sold and the proceeds remit
ted to Butler.

The National Intelligencer says
To show what cause of alarm the
Southern people have from the SUI
premacy of the Radical party, it
is sufficient to refer to the alarm
ing threats put forth by that par,
ty, or by some prominent infiuen'
ces in it-threats as follows:
1. Disfranchisement of the reb.
ell whites.
2. Putting all power in the
hands of the blacks and few 10y
al whites.
8. Organizing and arming the
colored people, as proposed by the
Washington Chronicle.
4. Keeping up bodies of loyal
troops at the expense of particu.
lar localities, as proposed by South.
ern loyalists in their address.
5. Confscation more or less eX-
tensive.
6. Gen. Butler told the soldiers
they could start from Arlington
and go South confscating.
7. Ignoring the existing State
organizations, and appointing mill
tary Governors.
s. Annulling the pardons grant
ed by the President.
8. Exclusion of every person
South who had ever taken an oath
to support the Constitution, wheth-
er compromised by the rebellion,
or not, from all Offices, civil, mill
tary or naval.

Ex-Governor 7. o. Moore, of
Louisiana, recently visited his
plantation the first time for several
years. While riding over the
grounds, and when passing the
site of his once large sugar house,
he started three deer, which were
lying in their beds in apparent
security. In 1860 there were few
more highly cultivated and pro-
ductive estates than Governor
Moore's. His income from sugar
and cotton alone exceeded $780,
600 a year. Nothing is left of
this splendid estate but the land
and the charred and blackened
ruins of the once elegant, spacious
and comfortable buildings.

A good story is told in the
western papers of Elder Spooner,
of Waukesha, Wis, noted cler-
gyman, politician, and lobby-man,
who used to be a great friend of
Gov. Randall, but is now his very
bitter enemy. One way of show
ing his spite was by burning all
books and documents sent him by
the Governor. Gov. Randall hear
ing of it, sent him in an ordinary
official package, franked, copy of
the Bible. The elder in his indig-
nation, never stopped to open it,
but committed that, too, to the fire!
The elder was told what the book
was after it was consumed, and
Waukesha is in a broad grin over
the transaction.

A Curious s.Critter."

While writing about gamblers
[ remember meeting, recently,
with man whose modus operandiI
have been unable to understand
for a long time. l first met him
in the Office of United States Mar
shall Murry,. who was at the time
purchasing a diamond ring from
him for SITS. / saw him fire.
quently after that, and noticed
that he always carried his pocket
full Of gold watches, silver watch
es, chains, rings, pins, bracelets,
sets of jewelry, &C., jewelry gene
rally. The last opportunity l had
of meeting with this curious "crit-
ter / resolved should be one of
investigation. He made no secret
Of his business whatever, but said
openly that he was a man who
kept single eye upon the right
side of the faro bank, and when
gentlemen gotr aground SO that
watches and chains had to 60, that
particular kind of property fell
| into his hands forthwith, for the
banker cannot afford to keep any
precious property about him for
the next twenty-four hours. In
many instances the "critter" l
have referred to has locked at gen.
tlemen's diamond pins, and rings,
and watches, and chains as they
wore them, sometimes for weeks,
confidently expecting the fascina-
ting articles named to fall into his
capacious pocket at greatly re-
duced prices" He says he fire.
quently in such cases sells q man
his own "stuff" back again at a
handsome profit; sometimes he
has the same article from the same
parties before they are allowed to
get out of sight in the hands of
some casual buyer. He exhibited
a very handsome set of jewelry
which a young man had stolen
from his sisters boudoir, and used
in "bucking" against very obsti'
nate "tiger" in ''faro;" it was a dia.
mond set, pronounced to be worth
500. The "critter" was offering
it for $3.50. 1t went into the
"bank" for 500, and fell into the
CRITTERS" hands for $50 better.

Fourteen yearsago, a Mr.. Cham

gold pencil on the grass ground
near his house. He knew just
where he dropped it, but after
a long search, gave it up for lost.
Last fall this piece of ground was
broken up, and the pencil was
turned out from under the sod ON
the very spot where Chamberlin
had hunted so long for it.
