Buffers Defeat ON Amnesty.

Dom Piatt writes from Washington,
under date Of the Bird, as follows, in ref
erence to Ben Buffers miscarriage in
the matter Of political amnesty:
We had high old fly around in the
House, day before yesterday, on this
interesting subject. The bill introduced
by Ben Butler was violently opposed
by Ben Butler. There is nothing fixed
about Ben but his OFF eye, and that is
fixed on the Presidency. You may
judge of Ben's strabismus when YOU
take into consideration his devious
ways, the said eye fixed on said object
all the time. He introduced a bill
granting political amnesty to the late
rebels in the South, and he got his bill
SO amended that he found himself un-
der the painful necessity of opposing its
passage. Although he so framed it as
to be open to the title of amnesty in
certain cases, there was only one case
where amnesty under it was practi-
cable, and that was the case of Benja-
min himself. He proposed taking out
of the courts in certain cases in which
he is interested, either as principal or
attorney, where the decision will prob
ably be adverse to his pecuniary inter-
est. He proposed, also, to remove from
the criminal tribunals the danger that
he lies under Of being prosecuted for
misconduct in the South. This was all
amended out of the bill by an obtuse
House, a beastly cruel House, that
could neither see nor feel for Benjamin,
and the whole thing narrowed down to
precisely what he did not want, and
that was, political amnesty to the
offenders in our late "onpleasantness."
So Benjamin fought his own bill with
great vigOr, but he fought in vain. The
House would not help Ben, and it was
bent upon granting political amnesty
to the South.

Of the law, however, is to relieve from
taking the oath all those persons whom
it was intended to exclude from such
Offices, and to require it from all others.
By this law, the soldier who fought and
bled for his country is to swear to his
loyalty; while the General, who led
