The CASE OF THE STEAMER GREY
JACKET.-Beast Butler has arrived at
New York, on business connected with
the case of the steamer Grey Jacket,
which came up in the Supreme Court
on the Sd Of January. The Grey
Jacket, a vessel built and owned by
Timothy Meaher of Mobile, Alabama,
was captured by a United States vessel
and condemned as prize of war. The
claimant now prays for a reversal of
the decree of court by which the vessel
was condemned, and the payment to
him of the proceeds of the sale. He
claims to have remained loyal to the
United States, and alleges that he was
unable to leave the Confederacy until
the time of his capture. He states that
he built the Grey Jacket and loaded
her with cotton for the purpose of es-
Gaping with his family to loyal State,
and when he got outside of the port of
Mobile gave himself up to United
States vessel and demanded protection.
He claims that his vessel cannot be
libelled and condemned as a blockade
runner, because, although she did run
the blockade, it was with no criminal
intent, but merely for the purpose of
placing himself and property under the
protection of the United Statess. Apart
from the amount, of money involved,
which is very large, the points of law
which will be decided are of the high
est Importance, and are looked forward
to with great interest by large num-
Der of persons. s.a go

A Contrast.

! Editors Clarion.-I notice that
number of newspaper men, who liv
off of the track pursued by the lat
Congressional Excursion makers in
dulge, not only in many bitter fiinl
at these Radicals" themselves, but a
those who entertained and yisitet
them.
AS to what was done in other places
let other places answer. Here in New
Orleans there were only such atten
tions paid them by our city authorities
and by Gen. Beauregard as President
of the Jackson Railroad and his co.
directors, as might be fairly. due
to the official position of these Sena-
tors and Representatives. They were
met by them and by our conservative
citizens by such as had always
been Union men as well as
by those who had lately
been their enemies in war, but
were such no longer. and by all, as POI
litical opponents, who were desirous
that their visitors should investigate
the numerous charges made against
the South, by professedly Southern
men, that they might learn their truth
or falsehood. No man, SO far as
know, and was at the banquet and at
the reception, belied his past or hum
bled himself as to the present. There
was just such intercourse as diplomats
have with one another.
It is true that the carrion crows of
the Convention of 1864 gathered
around them, but there was no ming
ling with these by us, nor even suffic-
lent exposure of their venality and the
recent and corrupt characteristics of
their Unionism. They were too much
dispised to be noticed.
I have thought proper to address
you this, because I see an especial
effort to stigmatise those who enter
tanned the excufsionists is made by
Mississippi editors, who not long ago
welcomed at their table, with special
toasts of compliment, one of Ben. But
ler's pets and a member of his military
commission which condemned poor
Mumford to the gallows and sought
the blood of other men, and who, un-
der Banks, with persistent and oft re-
peated "cavalry charges" drove out of
the house in this city of one of Missis-
sippi's generals, the tenant who held
possession of it for him, which house
this guest ofthe Mississippi press con-
fscated to his own use.
Having some regard for the consis-
tency of the Mississippi press, of
which I am a graduate, I respectful
ask your insertion of this. B.

Tile DESTITUTE SoUTH.-We had the
pleasure yesterday of meeting Rev.
Drs Harman, of Enterprise, Miss,
who is on visit to our city on an er-
rand of mercy in behalf of tile suffer
ing people of the South, and partic-
ularly that portion of his own State,
from jackson to Meridian, desolated
and devastated by Shermsn's raid. He
represents the condition of the people
in that section as terrible, many of the
men, women and children being on
the verge of starvation. Stripped OF
nearly everything they possessed by
the ravage Of the war, the almost to-
tai failure of the crops the last season
has rendered them entirely destitute,
and has compelled them to appeal to
more favored districts for bread

ard called up the resolution heretofore in
troduced by him instructing the committee
on foreign relations to inquire into the pres
ent relations between France, Mexico and
the United States-as to the possibility of the
withdrawal of the French troops and the
ability of Macmillan to maintain himself.
The House took up the bill for the admis-
sion of Nebraska into the Union. During
the debate Mr.. Dovis of New York, wished
to know if Congress had the right to impose,
conditions upon a new State and to enforce
the conditions without the consent of the
people Mr.. Farnsworth said Congress had
clearly that right, it was simply,
granting a territory a charter to be-,
come State and there VISA as much
authority to impose condition on q Terri
tory, while it is q territory. The bin was
/ passed with Boutwell's amendment giving
suffrage toall, by a vote ofIO3 against IS. Z

Judge Duvall, United States Judge of the
Western District of Texas, has delivered a
stirring charge to the Grand Jury. He
quotes at great length from the Constitu
tion and the Amnesty proclamation, and
says there is reason to believe that some per-
sons have violated the conditions on which
they obtained amnesty. They should be
visited with the punishment their infamy
deserves. The man who avails himself of
the generosity Of the Government
to obtain exemption from punish
ment and then violates his oath is more
guilty than one who has not been pardoned.
He opposes in strong terms the trial and
punishment of all who failed to avail them
selves of amnesty. He also calls attention
to the infringements of civil rights and says
we do not realize the freedom of our late
slaves as we must and should do.
The Austin 1ntelligencer says the man
who was assassinated was United States
Deputy Marshal. He was to serve thirty
five writs for Duvall's Court and this is the
supposed cause of his murder.

OFFICE OF N. o. j., g. G. N. r. r. Co. !
New ORLEANS, January 10, 1867.
HIM, II. C. King, Esq, Editor of the Nesc Or
leans Times, NesO Orleans, La:
DEAR SIR In your paper of this morning
you publish an article from the New York
Herald, containing some remarks relative to
speech / am reported to have made at
Canton, Mississippi, to the Congressional ex-
cursionists lately inIthis. city. The Herald is
in error, made no speech at Canton, or else
where, to those excursionists, but I con-
versed with them freely and openly, and
told them that the South had fought the
North so desperately becauee it was defend
ing what it conceived to be it's constitutional
rights-that having appealed, however, to
the arbitration of arms, it yielded to the de-
cision which was given against it and that
/ believed the people of the South were now
willing to accept the Constitution as made
by the war, and understood by the Supreme
Court of the United States. said also, that,
in my opinion, the questions of secession
and slavery were forever settled, and that,
SO far as was concerned, under no circum-
stancef, would / countenance any effort to
revive them that we must now direct our
energies and our vitality to repairing the
damages VI LILO WAL, anu restoring 90 our
homes some of those comforts and that pros
perity which they formerly enjoyed.
In answer to question of some of the ex-
cursionists, if thought the South would,
accept the Constitutional Amendments
replied that, eschewing politics and attend
ing strictly to my private business and the
duties of my position, had little opportu-
nifty, except through the newspapers to as
certain public sentiment on that subject
but if Chey desired to know my individual
opinion, / would say, that the South would
not and should not accept those amend
ments, even if presented as d 6nality, for it's
, interests and its manhood forbade it. That
we feel we are now at the mercy of the
North, but that the South would never do
anything which its honor could not approve,
to protect its interests; and that believed
we would remain passive spectators of the
struggle for power now going on at the
North, relying on the sober second
| thought" and the sense of justice Of both
parties to protect us.
Iadded, ,also, that after the fall of the Confed.
eracy, instead of going to foreign country
to swear allegiance to its Government, +
preferred remaining in my own, and
swearing allegiance to what conceived to
be it's new government.
If, in conversation with the excursionists.
used the words, Consolidated Govern.
ment," when speaking of the United States
Government, meant, Of course, a common.

under constitution as interpreted by the

A RADICAL PR1NT ON boutwell,
Boutwell,, Of Massachusetts, delivered
aleeture recently which does not seem
to please the editor of the Boston Post.
ssThe sum and substance of the
whole business" says the Post in con-
clusion, "appears to be that Mr.. Bout
well and his radical coadjutors cherish
an apprehension that the South may
have an opportunity to present its own
case, to the whole people of that ma
ton, on the floor of Congress. 1t is
an old democratic axiom that serror OF
opinion may be safely tolerated where
reason is left free to combat it. Now,
if the political condition of the South
and its opinions and policy be as OBJ
jectionable as Mr.. Boutwell, maintains,
certainly there is no danger in allowing
their exposition where such able
champions as Messrs. Boutwell,, Sum
ner, Wade, Stevens and others of their
class are present to refute them
Therefore, instead of avoiding it, why
not invite these gentlemen from the
South to free discussion in the halls
of the National Legislature, in order
that truth may be elected, and accusa-
tions and imputations pro and con be
subjected to that searching ordeal
which win leave no loop hole for error,
hypocrisy, or treachery to escape ?
What we want, and what the people
require, isa fair open arena for the ex-
animation and elucidation of all the
mooted questions between the North
and the South which have arisen out
of the late anomalous condition of the
country. The people are not disposed
to allow such important issues to be
perverted by one party or another par
ty, or by one set of men or another
set of men, to merely local or selfish
ends; but they wish to see them set
tied, as the great points of sectional
differences were settled by the Fathers
of the Constitution, for the purpose
of securing the good of the whole
nation, its perpetuity and its honor,
through generous compromise and
forbearance, and by the exercise of
hat high integrity which ignored all
narrow and selfish aimsin laying the
foundations of great Republic.
