4 Malicious Lie.

The Washington rebel correspondent of
that iufamously rebel Democratic journal, the
Cincinnati Inquirer, thu, speaks of the faith
ful and energetic Representative OF the First
Congressional District Of Tennessee. The ire
of this vile, slaneeriug and lying imp is
aroused by the appointment Of Nc. Butler on
the Committee of Elections.
a We have upon it that miscreant Butler,
of Tennessee, who was so much OF II rebel
during the war that Congress had to remove
his disabilities before he could take his seat,
lie is now the loudest-Eiouthed Of all the
Radical wbolps of the South. lie was APP
pointed at the i~nstigatiOn Of the Louisiana
and Georgia. carpst-baggers."
A fouler tissue Of calumniations aud false
hoods was never fabricated by the pen, and
a more vsnal, corrupt and prostituted news
paper, than the oneiS which it appears does
not disgrace American journalism, and dis
gust the taste, pride and sentiment Of this
civilized age. Rebel maledirtions are a re-
commentator to any loyal man aud rebel
enmity ia 10 an inGallible standard by which
