Bay" Wasbingtons letters are becoming
very scarce. The one of greatest value to
New Workers has recently been recovered
by the city authorities. Some time ago, the
communication sent by Washington TO the
common council of this city, ut the close of
the Revolutionary war, was offered at auc-
ticn, and brought $4,000. The letter was
stolen from the archives of the Corporation
Library, but the thief has not been discov-
cred. "A suit was instituted by the Dis
trict Attorney, to recover the epistle; and
il was finally surrendered to the clerk of
the Common Council, the litigation costing
the city over twenty thousand d, liars. TIE
letter was written in l7s5,and was read be-
fore the city fathers of that year. The
endorsement made by the city clerk family
appears on the back, The officer who stole
the letter having partially erased it, TO pr

BUFFERS NEPHEW.
From The Springfield Republican.


What Rev. David Strang, American
missionary in Egypt, writes to the New
York independent of the conduct of our
new American consul in that country, will
surprise no one who knew him ut home.
Whether in Ncw-York or California or
Washington, young Butler was "broth
of boy, with all his unce love of get
ting money and more than his uncle's
carolessncss as to how he spent it,
| George has had the reputation for years
of breaking more of the commandments,
and oftncr and more roughly, than any
man of his age in America. Neither mar
riage nor the Egyptian climate seem to
| have qualified his passions or their indul-
gcncc. The first thing he did was to sell
out his ndcrappointmcnts for good round
sums the next to make excursions in
to the country towns, and ut each stop
ping place call out company of naked
| Egyptian dancing girls and "makea night
of it in revclry in their society; while ut
court he has undertaken to prosecute II
claim against the government rs mon
strous in falseness rs in amount. Light is
| thrown on the latter transaction by his
boast when going for the appointment,
that he was "bound to have place with Il
rake in it worth $4,000 year There
are rakes-and rakcs and the American
consul in Egypt seems TO be illustrating
both kinds thereof We can well under
stand the virtuous horror of the Ameri-
can missionaries at finding such an ami
NAL as this set up over them as the official
representative of their great christian re-
public. But the president and the secre-
tary of state and the senate knew the man
they were sendingto Egypt, andthey have
no right to be surprised however much
they may be disguised, with the way he
has demonstrated himself at their expense
and that of the country entrusted to their
keeping

At the age of twcnty-six he WAS sent [,

INCOMPETENT JEDF.

From the Richmond (Pa) Whiy.
For our part, we should not regret to
see this new war begin, with Toombs and
Davis the only volunteers. Judging by
the love they bear each other they would
be much more apt to pitch into one an
other than into the Yankees The last
time we had the pleasure of seeing
Gen. Toombs during the war; he was in
high disgust with JEFF. Like Wigiall,
and, we believe, Clay and other conspic
uous southern leaders, he had become
thoroughly convinced OF the incapacity Of
Davis, and did not hesitate to express the
conviction that our doom was sealed, un-
less he could be got rid Of Converting
with Mr.. Wigfall, about the same time
about this confessed ncapacity of our
chief, we asked him why he and his
friends had put him upon us? He re.
piled, he d. had ceased to he the man he
was. lie and Clay had talked this matter
over the day before, and they beth con
cluded he had let down. The agony
which this conviction of Davis incompe
tcncy, among those whose hearts were dc
voted TO the cause, can never be told. In
cvltahlc defeat staring them in the fac
through the incapacity of our leader, 70
which there was no cure and from which
there was no escape, made many grow
