RIrTLER,s LAST DEFEAT

1t VIII be gratifying to every right
thinking man to learn that Gen. Buffers
influence over the House of Representa-.
tives is waning rapidly. Even Radicals
are turning upon and rending that bold,
bad man who has heretofore done their
dirty work. The Washington correspond
ent of the Cincinnati Commercial (Radi-
caD furnishes the last instance of Buffers
loss of prestige iuthe House, aud the terri
BILE excoriation to which he was subjected
at the hands of Stevenson, of Ohio, a
brother Radical. The correspondent
writes, March 81:
'oThe credentials of Messrs. Clarke.
Degener, Wbitmore and Conner, mem
bers from Texas, were presented. OBJ
lection from several members was made
to Conner, who was charged with all the
impossible offenses that could be thought
of while he was a Captain in the regular
army. He was described by Butler, In
gersoil, and others, as a moral monster,
and al other harmless names. 1t was
C1AN lC nd1 DCCA CAlyC1Cu HUH huudllD-
lis for general wOrthlessness; that he had
whipped forty or fifty colored soldiers
with the lash aud club; that he had been
court-martialcd for cruelty to his men,
and, besides that he was disloyal.
''AIr. Butler led the attack on him in a
most indecent and malicious manner, but
as happens lately, he was remorselessly
beaten.
"AIr. Stevenson took up the case OF
Mr.. Conner, in veIy manly manner, and
assailcd Mr.. Butler with unusual vigor
and courage. Being a new member, eve
lybody looked upon Steyenson's course
in att9 eking Mr.. Butler, who is regarded
with such fear by all, as T; cklegs and pre-
sump'ive, but bis cleverness surprised
even yEody. He ridicul / Butler; he de-
nounccd bin; he showed his own previ-
Gus record, aud intimated that if previous
conduct untitled man for admission to
the House, Butler might not fare so well.
The a1raignment was most scathing and
effective, and Butler was completely non
pluscd, TO have a young member cross
swords with him and beat him.
''The idea that Butler is the leader of
the House is a fable, rapidly dying out
here. He is beaten lately in whatever he
undertakes.
Blanks, always clear andlogical, solved
the problem by saying that the House had
no right to exclude member regularly
elected because of his previous life; that
Conner should be admitted, and, if suffi-
Gent cause was shown, af,er careful in
quit that the House could expel him.
Stevenson said Butler and other mems
objection to Conner was that he was
Democ1at, and on that account ought not
TO be admitted. When the vote was Ia
ken Butler was so badly beaten that he
had not followers enough to call the ayes
and nays"
The Washington correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Gazette radical, writes:
''The House had the spiciest time to-
day, over the proposition to swear in the
Texas members, which brought up the
question of the fitness of the members

WE'LL PIT.

President Grant in his recent message to
Congress, announcing the ratification of
the Fifteenth Amendment, says: SIN
stitutioBs like ours II which AL power is
derived directly from the people, must
depend mainly upon their intelligence,
patriotism and industry" Commenting
upon this message, the Chicago Times
asks: If it he true that a tIuly republi-
can and honest government can only be
maintained among an intelligent people,
what ought to be ssid of the rcconstruc-
ton infamy for DISTINGUISHING the best
and most Intelligent in the Southern States,
and making voters ofnegroes asignorant as
the Indisns2 Grant recommends half
barbarous blacks to educate themselves,
so they may vote uude-standingly. He
has nothing to say about the exclusion
from all political privileges of intelligent
men of his own race. Men with the
blood of Washington in their veins are
not only load d with political disabilities,
but are subj"ct to the political control of
negroes who were his slaves.

e,eet bonner Is an ex4oflicer of The reg
ulaf arng. and Democratic carpet bag
ger FROM Indiana. Paine, from the Com
mittee on Elections, reported unanimous
ly in favor of all the candidates who held
certificates from the Governor. Shanks,
of Indiana, objected to Corners being
admitted, and had several affidayits read
charging him with great cruelty to soldiers
while ia the service. At this point Gen.
Butler dame in, and not knowing exactly
what stanks had done, had the same afi-
daYits read over again, and then took the
floor in his most warlike style, demand
ing that Corners case should be inyesti-
gated. Many of the strongest men
in the House took issue with But
Ter At once, and for three-quarters of
an hour Brooks. of New York, Garfield,
Poland, Dawes, Schenck, Banks, Steven
son and Orth made it hot enough for him.
The points against Butler were that Con-
ner had all the constitutional requirements
and the regular credentials, and II his
personal conduct had been such as to unnt
him for a seat on the floor, 1t should DE
matter for investigation after he became q
member. Mr.. Dawes said this was the
first instance of such an objection as
Butler had made being made in'the history
off Congress. Mr.. Stevenson, OF Ohio,
characterized the attempts of Butler as
base. Mr. Ortb, of Ind, styled it pre-.
postero,ls. Brooks, of New York, asked
what would become of most of them II
such course was to be insisted on. Fin
ally the House divided, and Butler was
worse beaten than ever before. He could
only rally twenty-one votes for the yea:
and nays, and only seventeen for the tel
lers, ami when the vote was really taken,
not single person voted with the leader
of the House"

FARMERS AS PRODUCE BROKERS'

Hon. Henry A. Reeves, NJ. c., from
Brooklyn, N. Z, has issued a circular
relative to the TAX on Farmers as Pro-
duce Brokers'" The point of Mr.. Reeves
circular is, that Commissioner Delano re-
quires farmers who sell the produce of
their own farms from stands or stalls to
pay tax of ten dollars. To this Mr..
Reeves objects, as burdensome, and as a
strained construction of the law. The
Commissioner hinges his decision upon its
being an Occupation" or ''busines, )"
within the meaning of the act of Congress
imposing special license tax on ''pro-
duce brokers.
This to the Cincinnati Chronicle seems
to be a forced construction, wrong in
principle and law, bad in practice, and
cumbersome upon an interest that should
be specially protected, that Congress in
tended to protect, and really did protect,
upon 8. fair construction of the law. 10
call the farmer who produces bis own
grain and sells it himself in the market
person whose Occupation" or ''busiuess"
is that of produce broker, " is a con-
fusion of words or legal principles, and
is either stupid or perverse.
In constructing laws, the intention of
the lawmakers, where there is an ambigu-
ity, is the rule to be guided by. Congress,
in making the law, certainly only intended
to reach the "go-between" or interlnedi-
airy agent between the producer and con-
sumer-the man who makes it CHS bust
ness" or Occupation" to buy of the pro-
Queer and sell TO the consumer. This
class make it their business to buy and
sell productivity are produce brokers.
The law was clearly meant for them, and
there it should rest, and not IL forced
over oh the shoulders of farmers, who
are simply producers, and in no fense
'brokers."
Laws putting burdens upon a9ktculture
are always odious, always dangerous, and
are seldom resolted to by governments
even the most despotic. The true rule is
to protect and encourage the producer.
Experience, observation, political science,
all teach this. Congressdid not intend to,
and really did not, violate this rule. If
the Commissioner has done so, it is a
stretch of law, of authority, in which he
viii not be sustained by the country or the
courts, if test is made.
To put upon the farmer double tax
first, upon the sale of his own produc-
tons, and secondly, upon his income,

IT Is TRUE.

An Chilean, who has been living during
the past winter in Decatur, Ala, one
hundred and twenty-five miles south OF
Nashville, via Nashville and Decatur Rail-
road, and not very far from the Tennes
see line, writing to The Cincinnati Ctroni-
Gle, SAYS:
sNo Northern man need feel the least
fear in coming to this country; he will
not be nterfered with or molested, and
all good citizens are in favor of peace and
order"
We take it from the tenor of the entire
letter that though the writer is Republi-
can, he is not professional politician ;
that he did not locate in Decatur for the
purpose of making politics business.
he is therefore more deeply interested in
the growth and prosperity of the country
in which he lives, than he is in the
ephemeral success of his party, based on
Misrepresentation, begetting prescription,
| leading to violence and q very thorough
| disruption of society.
The writer OF the letter, who signs him.
self ''Ohio," is sensible enough to know
that it is only through peace and order that
general prosperity can come. Recon
struction and the eternal interference of
the general Government in the admins
tration of the laws of a State may benefit
the Prossers, Maynards, Stokes, Jerusa-
lem Smiths, and all that class, but they
are ruinous to every other class of our
citizens. This "Ohio" knows. Hence,
instead of endeavoriug to make capital for
his party by portraying in exaggerated
colors the recent killing IN Decatur, he
gives the fact, truthfully stating that it
was occasioned by an old difficulty origi-
mating in law suit and in which there
was nothing political.
VIII not our Tennessee Reconstruction
lists tale lesson from this Ohioan9 Viii
they lot, instead Of endeayoriug to drive
away all immigration by their horrifc
stories of continued cutrages, endeayor

litical reconstruction school, cease your
efforts TO blight our fer prospects. Join

ers and manufacturers from the Middle

which is derived solely, in most cases,
from The sale of his own producsions-is
a wrong that cannot be justified in law OF
ethics
The effect of this decision is injurious
to both producer and consumer II
drives the small farmer near the larger
cities and town from the markets, and
compels him to sell to the broker or
huckster, who in turn exacts his profit
from the consumer. Every intermediary
agent is an additional tax upon both pro
Queer and consumer, and legislation or
decisions that create this necessity are
burdensome and bad.

revenues, should not be wholly guided by

ceipts. Law and equity should be COM

The case of Gen. Ames, claiming 10 be

of on Friday by his admission, by the
following vote;
Yeas-Messrs. Abbott, Brownlow,

Hamilton of Texas, Hamlin, Herbs,
Howard, Howe, Howell, Mcdonald, Nor

serly, Conklin, Davis, E lmunds, Nc

and Vickers-12.
Messrs. Stockton, Thurman, Hamilton
of Maryland, and johnson, who were OPP
posed to the motion, announced that they
had paired with Morton, Sawyer, Bore
man and Lewis respectfully.
Ames' credentials were reported to the
Judiciary Committee when he first pre-
scented himself for admission, and that
committee subsequently made the follow
ing report:
The election in this instance occurred
on the 18th of January, 1870, at which
time Ames was amilitary officer, stationed
in Mississippi by orderof superior militsIy
authority, and was acting as Provisional
Governor by appointment ION Gen. Nc
Dowell. In the opinion of the judiciary
Committee his presence in these two char
acters did not constitute the requisite legal
residence, Notwithstanding his declara-
ton. when consenting 60 become a candi-
date for the Senate, that he intended 10
leave the army and reside in Mississippi,
and notwithstanding his subsequent resig-
nation from the army, which was accepted
by the President before signing the bill to
admit the State.
This report of the Judiciary Commit
tee has been disregarded by the ultra
Radicals in the Senate, and Gen. Ames,
who elected and commissioned himself,
has taken his seat as a Senator from Mis-
sissIppi. He was sent to that State (per-
haps we should say territory, for such it
was held to be by the Radicals,) in com
mand of the forces detailed to uphold the
military despotism maintained there and
was no more bona tide resident of the
