STRANGE CONDUCT OF SENATOR FOWLER
The Washington correspondent of the Boston
Advertiser says that the recent letter from
Senator Fowler, in which he says that the
whole House is under the lead of those good
old Democrats, d. f. Butler and John A. Lo-
gan, and he cannot have any interest in a
scheme to usurp his government by such bold
bad conspirators, has called out brief reply
from General Butler, of which the following
is the material portion:
In the year 1866, after / had made some
speeches at the West, in favor of the impeach-
ment of Andrew johnson, Senator Fowler
came 500 miles to my home in Lowell to visit
me, being the first time I had ever seen him,
and the only errand he made was to urge me
vehemently not to cease my efforts until An
drew johnson was impeached, giving as a rea-
son among others that as L had never lived in
Tennessee, l could form no conception of what
n bad man Andrew johnson was; and ia fact
that the vivid description of his habits and
conduct while Governor of Tennessee, given
me by young Tennessean who was present,
failed 10 convey any adequate idea of his
character: Times change, and some of us
change with them.

The DEMOCRATIC PYRAMID of eleven States

stone, Ohio. What sort of pyramid will it
be then without either apex or base? The fol-
lowing from the New York Commercial Ad-

our satisfaction, usually relieves us from the
necessity of citing, shows how the case stands
