The LAST SpEcK or DIRT The COM
nittee of the Virginia Legislature, ate the
last piece Of dirt at the residence Of Beast
Butler at Washington city on the 9th inst
Delegate McCaull, (John) read a memo
rial which the committee had prepared for
presentation to the reconstruction commit
tee, when the Beast said:
..Gentlemen, | am delighted with your
memorial as far as it goes, but if you will
allow me to suggest, would say that an
addition of three or four lines would settle
the matter, and Virginia will be admitted
within an hour after the committee report
bill for that purpose. which I am sure
will be done at once"
Several of the gentlemen said together,
What are the lines-what is it you de-
sire ?"
Several said together y Did mortal
ever see such greedinoss for dirt?
General Butler answered: Il think it
better for you to pledge yourselves, as the
Legislature and for your constituents that
you will see that the provisions of the con~
stitution. as it now stands, will be faith
fully carried out, and no trickery done as
in the case of Georgia and Tennessee. If
you do this, assure you that Virginia
will be State in the Union before the ex-
piration Of the present week. | will say,
further. that such pledge made by you
as a legislative body and gentlemen. will
perfectly satisfy me, as it doubtless will
all the members of the committee. | am
always ready to accept the pledge of II
| Virginia gentleman"
The Beast accepts the pledge of a
Virginia gentleman. That expression OF
appreciation and confidence, coming from
Butler would have made Us doubt whether
we belonged to that class.
After half an hour spent in general cons
verse, the committee withdrew and az once
repaired to Wizards Hotel, where they
held a formal meeting and again drew up
memorial the same as before, with an
addition as follows And Furthermore,
this committee pledge, singly and jointly,
and as the committee representing. the
State Legislature, that the provisions OF
the State constitution as far as adopted,
shall be carried OUT to the very lottery let
ter and spirit Of its intent and law
'.rhe very lottery letter" Je-schi.i-
kias!' What an appetite for dirt. The
Beast had scarcely presented the nlorsel uri
I'll it is devoured reyenously. But the
worst of it is, the Beast. has found out
that he was ''mistaken IN the man,
Or has ''lost confidence he entertained and
expressed" Later accounts indicate that
the pledge of Virginia gentleman" is
not sufficient OF itself Il is TO be incor
porated Into the statute of admission. =
That is. Virginia is to be a State so long
as she behaves herself--i. e. votes the
republican ticket, and sticks to all the
Objectionable features Of the New Constr
tuition But the minute she departs from
the path of recttu,le and virtue laid down
by IA radical Congress. she is to be re-
manded to territorial condition, and re
coastructed-to be 'sot back, as Geor-
gia will be, this winter. Alas. that we
should have eaten SO much dirt to 50 little
| purpose
