Drawing for Seats-A Disappointed
Yankee-CoIored Members Standing
Up for their Rights.
A Washington dispatch to the New York

A Washington dispatch to the New York
Herald says:
When the drawing for seats took place in
the House last Saturday Ben Butler did not
happen to be present. All the best seats were,
of course, selected upon that occasion, and
Butler had to take a back seat. This did not
suit him, and to-day he was on the lookout ior
q more eligible position. Among Inc lortu-
nate ones at the drawing on Saturday were
the negro memters from South Carolina,
Messrs. DeLarge and Rainey. They selected
seats near General Banks, on the left of the
speaker, about half way up the hall, IN q COM
manding position. In scanning the hall, But
ler's eye rested upon the seat occupied oy
DeLarge. He Immediately coveted IT, and,
going 10 the negro, asked him II ne had any
objections to exchange seats. The negro,
seeing it was Butler VINO aooresseu n'h' nio"-
estly inquired:
..Where is your seat, Massa Butler?'
ssBack there" said Ben, pointing to seat
away in the rear.
"Well, I'll see about it, said the negro.
In the meantime Sergeant-at-Arms OrdWay,
who is very persuasive with the negroes, went
to DeLarse and succeeded IN Inducing him 10
change seats with Butler. Ginnery TWicheli,
another Massachusetts member, who had been
unlucky in drawing seat, seeing the success
of Butler with one OF the negroes, concluded
that he would try similar game with tne
other. He Immediately started for Rainey,
the other lucky colored brother from South
Carolina, and asked him lfhe had any o6lec.
ton to take seat little further back. Rainey
was member OF the last House, and, coming
in late in the session. had been assigned
back seat. Unlike DeLarge, he had had some
experience, and he had no disposition 70 re-
peat 1t.
"Mr. Twichell," he said, 81 woald rather sit
here
.'Well, you see," said Ginnery, with smile
much occasion to address the speaker, and
one of those seats back there will suit just as
well for writing letters. You know our Slate

THE CHARLESTOy SISTERS OF
MERCY.
How the Congressional Bill for their
Relief was Twice Defeated in the
Senate.
1rrom The WASHINGTON ra,riot.l

During the last Congress bill passed the
House OF Representative making an apprc-
priatlon to repair the property Of charitable
institution in Charleston, under the charge OF
the Sisters of Our Lady Of Mercy" which
had been seriously damaged during the bonn
bardment. 1t went to the Senate. and In the
expiring hours of the session, July IS, 1870,
MIR. Drake, then a senator from Missouri,
s'solitary and alone.n lifted his baleful voice
against this measure OF humanity. 1t was
defeated by his malignant persistency. Time
rolled on, and this senator was transferred 10
the Court Of Claims.
The bill was renewed on the morning OF
the 4th of March, and with the certainty OF sue
cess could vote have been reached. The
Senate had been polled, and there was not
doubt about the result. The galleries were
thronged, aud generous feeling Of sympathy
pervaded the whole assembly. Sitting In the
place which he once occupied, but never hlled,
was Mr.. Drake, like bird OF i'll omen. At This
critical moment Mr.. Edmunds, OF Vermont,
took The floor, will. thed deliberate intention OF
talking against time. And when he had played
that unworthy part, he was succeeded by Mr..
Howard, Of Michigan, who spoke until lne
clock sounded the death-knell OF the bill, anu
of his own senatorial career. The meauness
and malice of this last act are consistent with
the prosecuting spirit which marked his course
during and since the war.

difficulty rests in getting this last bill through
the Senate. There would be no trouble SO
fer as the House Is concerned. The senator
iitimates that he will press his bill to a vote
