:? One Of the most painful circumstances connect
ed with the heroic defehce Of Charlie ton. during
its three years OF SIEGE is to be found in the fact
that during all thistime, there were persons in
the high Hfe," who: were engaged as
spies in sending Information to the besiegefs.
Drawings Of the for.idcRtions were furnished
weak points noted. snd the movement Of troops
indicated as soon as begun and the feet notified
of the time Of arrival and departure of blockade
ruuuing vessels so cautiously did these ennis
long time the skin of the most eminent deteo-
tiYes was bafied in their endeayorsto break up
the illicit correspondence. These spies were the
source OF extreme annoyance to the Command
ers in Charleston, and the Information they were
ena led to furnish, often thwar ed their best MAJ
the completeness of this conspiracy, 1t may be
remarked, that the daity papers of the city were
frequently read on board the blockade feet, the
same day Of their publication.
The author of "fsolette, or the Female Spy"
has taken the principal characters and Incidents
IN this affair aud under assumed names, has pre-:
sentsd them IN the form Of q thrilling, and well
written romance, historic and imaginative. The
circumstances Of the s.osy are detailed Is begin
Mug on Jxnes Island and in connection with
some of the South Carolina Regiments stationed
there. After many thrilling, adventures IN
which the female spy" figures largely, the he
roes Of the plot follow their regiment TO Viz
ginia. before the walls of Petersburg. The sur
render of General Lees Army in 1855, finds
them again among tie Santee hills, where the
narrative closes. - go -. =. -

WASHINGTON, July 27.-The speech
which General Butler obtained leave to
present to-day, in reply to Senator Hender-
son, charges the Senate with choosing the
Sabbath for his speech, for the reason that
he (Butler) had gone home and there would
be no reply. He (Butler) had, however,
been detained by accident. The committee
had made no charge against the Senator.
Fhey only carefully detailed the evidence
before them. This evidence, Mr.. Butler
surmises and says, is the inference from those
facts which seem to 20 enrage the Senator.
When a fowler shoots at black bird or
other winged vermin in a thicket, says
Butler, he can always tell by the huttering
ia the bushes whether the shot has told.
He (Builer) should treat the Senator "a
Uncle Toby did they fly which he caught
buzzing about his ear, carrying it to the
window as he let it out Of his hand, he
pityingly said; "Go poor devil, there is
room in the world for both thee and me-"

Summary Execution of Three More of
the Seymour Express Robbers.

CINCINNATI, July 26.-Parks, Moore
and Terrell, the Adams Express robbers,
arrested at Nation, Cole county, Illinois,
on Friday, arrived at Seymour, Indiana, at
halfpast ten o'clock, last night, and soon
after left in wagon with 4 guard for
Brownston, to be delivered to the Sheriff of
jackson county.
When near the vicinity where Clifton,
Elliott, and Roseberry were hung, the
wagon was suddenly surrounded by about
one hundred armed men, all masked. The
guard was overI,owered and the prisoners
taken out and hung. At last accounts they
were still hanging on the same tree where
the others were hung. Previous to the
hanging, the prisoners were questioned az
TO the numerous rUbberies which have oc-
CURED in Jackson county, but with the ex-
ceptiOn of an acknowledgment of small
depredatiOns, nothing was gained from
them.
Lateral 10 o'clock to-day the Coro-
ner held an inquest over the bodies of the
express robbers, Moore, Terrell and Sparks,
at the place where they were hanged, near
Brownstown, Ind. The verdict was that
they met their death from being strangled
by parties unknown to the jury The
bodies were claimed by friends and buried
this morning, two in Seymour cemetery
and one three miles south Of Seymour.
The excitement is gradually slIbsiding

Rejected. Ratified
Arkansas. Dec. IT, 1866 April 6, 1853
North Carolina. Doc. Is. 1861. July 4. 1868.
Here's a coil. If the rejection is good
rejection, there has been no ratification.
And if the ratification is a good ratiGca-
lion, the Constitution of the United States
does not prohibit slavery. The same gov
ernments in Arkansas and North Carolina
that rejected the fourteenth, ratified the
thirteenth Tor emancipation amendment.
.If the rejection was illegal, then the rati-
6cation is illegal too. But it was this rat
ifcatiOn that put the thirteenth amend
ment in the Constitution, and if Illegal
that amendment isn't there.
This statement shows the sort of Iegis,
lation and trickery by which the South.
ern States have been manipulated in the
interest Of the Radical party What.
ever promoted the purposes OF that party
WAS legal, while every other species of
legislation was held to be the reverse.
