HORACE GREELEY TO GEN. BUTLER-Mr,
Greeley will to-day publish a reply to Gen. But
ler's response to his former letter on universal
amnesty and universal suffrage. Referring to
Gen. Buffers opinion that some half do zen
more or less, Of the COnfederates should have
suffered exemplary punishment, Mr.. Greeley
says" When five more years of peace shall
have intervened, 1 am quite confident YOU will
consider that two or three examples would have
been enough; and after the lapse of five more
years You will be satisfied that to have strung up
IN 1s63 him who was your choice for President
In 1e6O, would have answered the purpose" He
refers to many historical precedents to show
that severities after a war, do not serve to save
or perpetuate power; in short, he says:-"If
there be one lesson written all over the
face Of history, it seems to me that Pride
-gCeth before destruction that the con-
queror in a civil feud, who has glutted his
vengeance, stands often very near his downfall,
He cites Tennessee and the overthrow of the
Republican party there as an instance of the
legitimate fruits OF prOscriptive policy, and
impeaches the policy Of sweeping disfranchise
ment and prescription as leading inevitably to
such disasters. Mississippi, and the defeat of
Dent, he regards as Q vindication OF the more
liberal policy. In conclusion, he expresses his
confidence that as passions cool and wrath
abates, thousands who have cursed will thank
him for what he has done and dared in resist
ance to their own sanguinary impulse and low
fully trusts that this will become at last. the
common faith, and even Of that Of General
Butler himself.
