An Incident Of Dickens Readings.
The Washington correspondent OF the
CJ.s -. -, - e., Az II

X
The Washington correspondent Of the
Chicago Times furnished the following:
An incident worth mentioning occurred
in Carroll Hall on the second night of the,
Dickens readings. Hen Butler entered af.
ter the performance had commenced, and
walked down the centre aisle while Dick
ems was describing oneof the most interes-
ting scenes in his selections from David
Copperfeld. Perhaps Ben amin was un-
avoidably detained, or perhaps he could at
tract that amount Of attention which he
thinks is due to bis eminent abilities and
great public services There are those who
adopt this as one Of the ways ofkeeping
before the people; some ofthenp men of
marked zeal in religions affairs, who Lever
enter the church till the congregation is
well seated and then walk straight to the
front pew. IfGen. Butlerhadn't his minds
eye on this idea on the occasion referred
to his motives were misunderstood by many
that's all.
Well the hero Of Bermuda walked down
the aisle, the observed Of all observers, and
took his seat in a very select and adyanta-
geous part Of the hall. The first selection
was sooD concluded. and Mr.. Dickens retir-
ed, as ia his wont, for ten minutes of rest
and refreshment. The rustic and hustle
consequent upon relaxation of attention
followed. There were whisperings among
the younger, in the midst of which up rose
Butler from bis seat, either to observe or
be observed, hard to tell which, though ]
incline to the latter belief. There was no
installing that bald head or that strabism-
ic eye. It was B. F. Butler and nobody
else.
The intermission. like all things on this
earth, has its end, Dickens reappeared and
the readings were resumed. This time it
was a selection from Pickwick-the FL
nous Bob Sawyer party scene. TWAS very
funny as We ell know, and the laugh was,
at times, immoderate. There was point
however, at which the laugh became very
much Ikea vulgar roar, and it wasn't the
funniest part ofthe reading by any means
Mr.. Dickens felt little confused, Thought
for man Of his nice perceptions know ex-
actly where the fun comes in, as We all
know there is such thing possible as a
laugh at the expense Of an actor, which is
|alaays more vivid than that provoked by
the play. Dickens evidently thought he
had blundered. But he hadn't. He had
simply read the following colloquy between
Hopkins and Noddy-and the audience
had just seen Butler, and every one knew
he was present.
Il request that you'll favor me with
your card, sir
aI'll do nothing Of the kind, sir"
"Why not, sirg'
because you'll stick it up over your
chimney-piece and delude your visitors in
to the false belief that a gentleman has
been to see You. SIR
"Sir, friend Of mine shall wait on you
| in the morning"
Sir, | am very much obliged to you for
the caution; and I'll leave particular direc-
tons with the--seryant to lock up the
spoons"
The laugh, Mr.. Dickens, which SO ex-
ceeds all bounds as to perplex you, was
due solely to connection in the popular
mind between General Ben. F. Butler and
spoons.

IMPEAcHMENT. We copy rs follows
from the Mobile Register Of the 26th:
An even bet that if the Senate court
is organized for the t,ial Of the Presi-
dent on the articles Of impeachment
that he will not be convicted.
tn.--Aneven bet thatif be is tried
and convicted he will be the next Pres
ident Of the United States by popular
acelammation.
Chief Justice Chase presides over the
Senatorial court, and as q Candidate
for the succession, he c..nnot afford to
convict him.
Gen. Grant Is also aspirant, and lie
cannot afford to have him convicted.
These views, perllapsaccount for the
great quietness with which all this
startling news is received in gold and
commercial circles. Men in these cir.
cles evidently do not think there il
'nluchin i.

% The probability is that Mr.. Bel
mont in business matters understands
his own interests a little better than
the Times. Mr.. Belmontis accustomed,
as q banker, to look for his rights as a
creditor in written instruments, and
only them. AS he never saw any pro-
mise upon the part of the United States
to pay the principal of the fve-twenty
bonds in gold, it is not likely he then
believed they would be so paid.

Republican Form Of Government.

"Mack," the correspondent Of the Gin
cinnati Commercial, leading Radical
Journal, fully illustrates what the Radicals
mean by a republican form Of govern
ment." Here him ON the subject;
They have a republican form Of govern
ment in Missouri, and have it with venge-
ance. heard something about it the 9th
.er day, which I can not refrain from pub
fishing, by way of illustration. Clay
County, Missouri, had a voting population
of $500 before the war. A full regiment
of these entered the Federal service, and
went through the entire struggle, and what
was left OF them came nome at the close of
it. There are now about 5000 voters in
the country At the last election two
hundred and fifty were allowed to exercise
the right of suffrage under the test oath
and registry laws. The rest, $3.50, were
excluded as "rebels," though many Of them
had been all through the war on the Union
side. And the best of the joke is that the
individual who sat in judgment upon the
loyalty of Others, and excluded the 1850 as
fdisloyal, was himself violent seoessioDists
at the outbreak of the war. He is now,
however, aa earnest Radical. Now, these
are figures that won't lie. My authority is
Frank Blair. Aud this is only speei-
men--en u'ao disco onanes.
So all who want to bask in the sunshine
of a republican form OF government which
is such in the literal sense that none but
Republicans are allowed to participate in
it, had better emigrate to Missouri. It's
no wonder they elected Drake to the Sem
ate out there, but it is little astonishing
that they didn't do even worse, if that were
possible.

A SOMEWHAT hard case has been decid-
ed at the courts Of Anglers, France. Ac-
cording to the terms of French law the
child Of widow, it born there hundred
days after her husbands death, is consid-
cred as legitimate. Madame MERCER a
widow, pleaded for the recognition of her
son, born three hundred days, six hours
and half after the decease other husband.
The decision Of the Court was that the
child was illegitimate. Rather hard lines,
as the facts prevent the child from inheri-
ting his share of NJ. Mercier's property,
which hewould otherwise have claimed.
