money and spoons and things that came
into his hands. Growing forid in face

For considerable time he went on
at this rate, trying as well, to exculpate
himself from the charges of embezzling
the Soldiers Asylum fnnd.
Mr.. Farnsworth said that he had a
word OF explanation to make, and he
hoped that "his great age" would not
prevent Butler from resenting then and
there any unjust accusations. The
House roared with laughter, at this
keen thrust at Butler, who, though con-
tinually boasting of his courage, is
known to be most arrant coward. AS

How Hen Butler Proposes % Grisa
His Axe.

Washington Correspondence april lpth,) or
the Cincinnati Commercial.
Speaking OF this distinguished states
man Ben Butler it nurns out that
much of his indignation against South
ern outlaws, and his anxiety to procure
the necessary legislation, originates
really in a wish to have the law 70
framed that be can bring about . long
entertained design upon Utah. The
Federal officials in that unhappy Ter
ritory are Ben's creatures. The Judges,
especially, are Of his selection, and in
their attempt to persecute the Mormons
and get possession OF the valuable
mines lately discovered in that part Of
the world, they have been foiled by the
difficulties, under the constitution and
laws, of procuring a jury that will sus.
tain the court. Under the provisions OF
this so-called Ku.Klux Bill the old
safeguards thrown about the juror are
removed and the Judge has the entire
selection. He may challenge excuse or
dismiss at his own option, until he pro-
cures creatures who will look 10 his will
instead OF the facts and law upon which
to base a verdict. There never was
such a fair illustration OF Benjamin's
mode Of doing work at this. While
keeping up tremendous row over the
outragcs OF the South, and apparently
legislating for that, he has kept that of
eye single upon the mines OF Utah, and
the organized scsundrels he has there
rs friends and retainers. There s not
much lett OF the Constitution 10 the
hands Of these Utah officials, but Ben
jamin proposes to wipe out oil. For
the purpose OF making bis point In this
one particular, he is willing TO sscri6cs

,ion ot the Forty-second Congress
Aside from the excitement over the diff

Eu.Klux bill, there was nothing espe.
cialv noteworthy, except the grand
closing exhibition given by Ben. Butler,
which was fitting finale 10 the Radi-
,,l deviltrv that has been carried on by
the majority.
1t had been given out for few days

tended 10 make a speech at the last
moment, exculpating himself from the
various charges made against him, in
which he intended TO abuse Senator
Davis. Mr.. Farnsworth and everybody
else against whom he entertained his
natural hatred, feeling certain that the

would cut off all reply. How well he

from Lake Ontario TO Michigan but
no serious disturbance is apprehended

Condition OF the Crevnsses-Tribu-
taries Rising.

tarIes Rising.
New ORLEANS, April 30.-The situa
ton at Bonnet Care Crevasse remains
unchanged. The width Of the crevasse
is now variously estimated at from
| 200 to 800 feet, through which the
water is pouring in angry torrents, COW
ering some most valuable sugar planta
tions to the depth OF ten or twelve feet,
and in some cases reaching to the sec,
ond stories OF houses, and completely
submerging cabins. The roar Of the
water, as it lashes against the trees, can
be heard for miles. All hopes Of
closing the vast break have, for the
present. been abandoned, and the object
now is TO prevent further destruction OF
property and connne the water to its
present limits. Houses have been de-
serted, plantations abandoned, and in
one instance an entire village has been
deserted by the rapid spread OF the
water, which extends back into the
country for ten miles. Dispatches from
above report that the side streams are
rising from recent rains, which causes
great CONSERVATION. Fears are enter
tained that several weak points in the
levee between here and the mouth Of
Red River will break. Immediate steps
will be taken to strengthen them, and
several working parties will leave to
morrow for that purpose.
MEMPHIS, April 30.-1he officers Of
tn. steamer, coming from below to-day,
report the river rising rapidly below
Vicksburg, and state that unless pre-
cautionary measures are speedily taken
the levee at several points below Red
River will give way and overflow large
portion Of the country and injure the
planting.

Attempt to Cut n Ship Loose.
For some time since a suit has been
pending in the United States Court be-
tween the rival shipping firms OF Tap
scott & Co. and Morgan & Co, for pos
session of the packet Williams. The
property was placed in the charge Of
two Deputy Marshals. About two
o'clock this morning parties suspected
to be in interest Of the Morgan d Co.,
attempted to cut her adrift from pier
l64, East river, while a steamer waited
in the stream to take her in two The
Marshals, however, discovered them,
pursued and fred upon them. Shots
were promptly returned and a scattering
fire kept up until twenty shots had
been discharged, when a detachment Of
police, from the Seventh Precinct, hur-
rying up, the assailants took to fight,
1t appears that nobody was hurt and
no arrests were made.
