But it wasn't always so. Once held a

In the fitness of things, it is given
out that Butler, the notorious spoon
thief of New Orleans, is to be Secreta
ry of the Treasury under the prospect
i've usurper. He is already called a re-
pudiator by some of his party, but if
this takes place, there will be some
grounds for it. If his peculations do
not drive the Government into repudi
alton, it will be for the reason only
that his past thicvery has made him

Legal Advertising.

The Athens Post, in referring to tho
law passed by the late body assembled
at Nashville in reference to the legal
advertising says:
"There is law in the statute books.
which we believe has never been re.
pealed, IN reference to legal advertise.
ments, and which requires all such no.
tees to be inserted in the paper having
the largest circulation in the county.
etc. We have not the book at hand at
hand at this time, but we think the
statute imposes a pretty severe penalty
upon an officer for violation in the
premises. We may, however, be mis-
taken in this last, and only design to
call attention to it at present, and to
put county officers on their guard in
reference to matter which, il acted
upon unadvisedly, may lead them into
serious trouble. A gool deal of the
legal business of the country for the
last few years has been done in a loose
and illegal manner, and this should be
avoided in future as likely to lead to
cumbrous and costly litigation"

One of the most fragrant pieces of

One of the most fragrant pieces of
prospective special legislation which
the Radical party have yet attempted,
is the recent proposition to relieve Mir.
Butler, of Tennessecs from political
disabilities by permitting him to take
his seat without swallowing the test
oath. Only short Time since, Mr..
Thomas, of Maryland, was sent back
to his constituency, because he had
furnished 500 to his own son when IL
the Confederate service; and he might
have AIKEN the oath with the same mod.
ification which was accorded to Sena-
tor Patterson, who was let down thus
easily because at first supposed to be-
long to the Radical party. This MIR
Butler was a member of the Tennessee
Legislature during the war, and in that
capacity gave aid and comfort to the
Confederates, directly and indirectly;
but, as it is known that he will vote
with the Radicals, Il special law is pro-
posed to ease his conscience by rclcas.

the oath. The N. Y. Herald con
cludes scathing review of the propo.
sition as follows III we were not
accustomed to the rascality of Radical
Legislation, we would stigmatze this

consistency and decency; but as it is
"only part ofthe policy of an unscru-
"pulous faction, with which we are
"made familiar every day, it does not
"strike us with astonishment, and, in.
"deed, is hardly worth condemning or
"wasting words over, because we ey-
"pect to see plenty more of the same

DR.. Baldwin and Another War

From the Bolivar Bulletin.l
We copied, in our issue Of last week,
a paragraph from the Herald, in which
the Rev. DR.. Baldwin was reported
as declaring, just before his death, that
another and terrible war would be wa
ged on this continent, during the pres.
cnt year. We have since learned the
following facts from DR.. R. II. Rivers,
which fully corroboratc the statement
in the Herald. In January, 1862, DIR.
Baldwin wrote letter to Gen. Thomas
Rivers, in which he said, "The present
war will not finally settle the question
atissuc. Especially is this true in re-
ference to the status of the negro.
Another war will shortly succeed this
far more terrible than the present. 1t
will be to the present as were the In
dian and French wars to. the war of the
Revolution. This second war will de,
termine for all time, the status of the
negro. He will be made subordinate
to the white race, not only in the South
but throughout the world" This letter
was shown to DR.. Rivers by the wild
ow of his brother. and but short time
prior to the lamentented death of DR..
Baldwin. He Immediately wrote to Dr..
b and asked him if his opinions had
changed since the close Of the war.
The reply was, "My opinions have not
changed. According to my understan-
ding of prophecy another war is soon
to cOnvulse this continent. The issue
is certain. The Hamitic race will be
made subject forever to the Japhetic
race do not say that slavery will be
rc-cstablished but Japhct must have
dominion" He went on further to
say, that he had never committed an
error in the Interpretation ofprophecy;
that he was preparing work which he
had read in manuscript to the Rev. F.
A. Owen and others, in which he had
foretold with perfect accuracy the war
between italy, Prussia and Austria
even to the day and hour of its declar-
alton. He said, my theories have
sometimes been erroneus, but my in
terpretations have always been such as
were established BY facts" This was
probably among the last letters Of that
truly great man. DO not the times in
dicate that he was right and that we
are on the eve Of terrible events2

1t is reported from Washington that
at one of the most brilliant receptions
of the wintcr. at the house Of Senator
Sprague, Mrs. Sprague astonished the
party by declaring that her sympathies
were with the Democratic party. She
said that her husband and her father,
Chief Justice Chase, went for the Re.
publican party, but she went for the
Constitution. This would have less
significance but for the relations she
holds to influential parties.

Women for Editofs and Printers.


We print in our paper this week an
article entitled "The Woman Ques-
tlon," which demands little more
comment from US than we have to be.
stow this week uponi it.. We only want
to say that We are prepared for two or
three girls as apprentices in the Home
Journal office. They must be about
sixteen years Of age, able to read and
spell we'll, industrious, and not addict
ed to any bad habits. They will be
boarded and clothed the first year, their
wages doubled the second, and the
third year taken in as partners.
We are determined that it shall not
be said of us--you are opposed to wo-
men having their rights and an equal
chance with man in the great battle OF
lite. In truth, we believe that girls
would make better printers than men.
We can rarely find a boy who will
serve out his time, but will run away
os soon as he gets a smattering of the
trade. Girls would not treat their bos.
ses this way-bless their hearts. Then,
they would not chew tobacco, smoke
cigars and pipes, drink. whisky, or do
any of the mean things which the lady
editress of New York says belongs in
such great degree to the men prin.
tsrs. As to the fear that they will un-
derwork the men-that Is only an ex
cuse Of those men to get higher wages.
We think that there is no business bet.
ter suited for women than setting type.
The manual labor is very easy, and on
