Good on Butler.

A rather amusing story is in circu-
lation at the expense of the eminent
gentleman from Massachusetts, CON-
monty called, cold Strabismus." At
The Presidents levee the other night,
which was denscly crowded, an old
lady from the interior somewhere, in
iainting condition, requested her
husband to get her an ice.
."Can't be did," responded "hub,' in
some irritation; "therc amt no re-
freshmcnts here"
"Dop't believe it. Didn't we get
plenty at Belknap's the other night 7"
the good woman said angrily; snow
90 and get me an ice aud some lem
onade"
al tell you now don't be fool; there
ain't no refreshments; everybody says
so. grunted the lord and master.
"You are quite mistaken, sir" said
the Hon. s. S Cox, who happened to
be near, and who never loses an OPP
portunity TO put in n joke. Tho
President always provides substantial
ly. There is his butler, whose busi
ness is to show ladies to the supper
room" and the Hon little jester point
cd to General Butler "You'll find
him little up and cross, but you must
not mind that; tell him 10 get you
torrapins, ice cream, lemonade, or
whatever you want, with siluer spoon
to stir IL with"
This was said so gravely that the
two struggled through the crowd to
where General Butler stood talking TO
somo ladies.
II say, mister, am told you arc tho
butler" said the man.
I'm General Butler,' replied Old
Strabismus, pleasantly, thinking the
two some country people filed with
admiration of his greatness.
81 don't care whether you are a
general butler or not, but my wife wants
some terrapins and lemonade, with u
siirer spoon"
"Sir y snorted old d. in amazcmcnt
and disgust.
ooh, don't take on airs, old cock.
Come now, hurry up those terrapins."
"You must be drunk, sir you must
be drunk +
"No, he ain't screamed" the wife,
"IIcs a Good Templar; he amt drunk,
but guess you are"
Roars of laughter greeted this, in
which S. s. Cox was forced to join
Gen. Butler rcddcned in the face, and
began putting his checks out in the
most violent manner.
81 don't understand this extraordi-
nary conduct What do you want,
sir-what do you want 7"
"Terrapns, tell you"
"What do you take me for, you
cussed foolY" roarcd Benjamin.
"You call me cussed fool, and I'll
bit you on the snout," screamed the
man.
AT this iuncturc an officer of the
police seized the beligerent husband
and led him away amid much laugh
ter. Butler, turning suddenly, saw
the mischief maker.
al say, Cox, did you do that e
"Wcll, ! owe tcwapins, and I'll pay
you, mind that--l'll pay you"
And the Two walked lovingly away.

Gall for a National Convention Of the
0olored People of the United States.

COLUMBIA, S. C., january p, 1872.
The following preamble and resolutions
were adopted by the " Southern States Con-
yention of Colored Men," which convened in
this city on the 18th day of Oct0ber, 1871:
WHEREAS, The time fixed for the assem-
bling of this Convention was very unfortlt-
nate, owing to the Important ca1ivasses 20
ing on in several of the Southern States, and
the inability OF many good men to attend, in
consequence OF the same and whereas, many
prominent colored men disappr0yed of said
call, because they considered it sectional !;
therefore, be It
RESOLVED. That the President of this Con-
yention be, and is hereby authorized, to call
National Convention of the coiOfed people
of the United States, TO meet at the city of
New Orleans, Louisiana, on the second We'd
nesday of April, 1872. aa.
ResoLUed, That the representation to said
Convention shall be two from each State or
Territory at large, and one for each twenty
thousand colored voters, and one for each
fractional part over ten Thousand, to be cleo
ted as the State may determine.
Pursuant to authority vested in me under
the foregoing resolutions, hereby call upon
the eolored people of the United States to
elect and commission delegates to assemble
mentioned, at l2 O'clock NJ, to consider their
Political and material interests
The ratio of representation as laid down in
the foregoing resolutions, is expected to b
strictly adhered TO-.
ALoNzo j. RANsIER,
President Of the "a Southern States Cenven.
ton of Colored Men" 8asa
Papers friendly to the cause of equality be-
fore the law and the material interests of the

OFFICIAL CALI
National Republican Convention.

FElHE undersigned constituting the Nation
II al Committee designated by the Conven-
ton held at Chicago ON the Goth of May,
1868, hereby call q convention of the Union
Republican party at the city OF Phiiadelphla.
ON WEDNESDAY, THE FIFTH DAY OF
JUNE next, at 12 o'clock noon, for the pur-
pose of nominating candidates for the Offices
of President and Vice. resident of the Uni
ted States. ..... .s3.s.
Each State is authorized to be represented
in the Convention by Delegates equal 70
twice the number Of Senators and Represen-
tatives to which it will be entitled IN the
next National Congress, and each organized
territory is authorized to send two delegates.
In calling this Convention, the Committee
remind the country that the promises OF the
Union Republican Convention of 1868 have
been fulfilled. The States lately in rebellion
have been restored to their former relations
to the Government. The laws of the country
have been faithfully executed, public faith
has been preserved, and the national credit
firmly established. Governmental economy
has been illustrated by the reduction, ut tho
same time, of the public debt and of taxa
ton and the funding of the national debt
at lower rate of interest has been success
fully inaugurated. The rights of naturalized
citizens have been protected by treaties, and
immigration encouraged by liberal provisions.
The defenders of the Union have been CRATE
fully remembered, and the rights and inter-
ests of labor recognized. Laws have been
enacted, and are being enforced, for the pro-
lection of persons and property in all sec
tons. Equal suffrage has been cngrafted on
the National Constitution; the privileges
and immnnities of American citizenship Rave
become part of the organic law, and a lib
| eral policy has been adopted toward all who
engaged In the rebellion. Complications ID
foreign relations have been adjusted in tho
interest of peace throughout the world. while
the national honor has been maintained.
Corruption has been exposed, offenders pun
ished, responsibility enforced, safeguards es-
tablished, and now, as heretofore, the Re
publican party stands pledged to correct al
abuses and carry out all reforms necessary
to maintain the purity and efficiency Of the
public service. To continue and firmly es-
tablish its fundamental principles, we invite
the cooperation of all the citizens of the
| United States.
WILLIAM CLAFLIE,
of Massachusetts, Chairman.

| of New Hampshire, Secretary.

One of our citizens went to the cars
to see his daughter off. Securing her
a seat, he passed out of the, car and
went round to her window to say a
parting word, as is frequently done
on such occasions. While he was
passing out the daughter left the seat
to speak to friend, and at the same
time prim looking lady, who occu-
pied the seat with her moved up to
the window. Unaware of the impor-
tant changes inside, our venerable
friend hastily put up his face to the
window and hurriedly exclaimed,
" One more kiss, sweet pet.n In an
other instant the point of blue cot
ton umbrella caught his seductive
lips, followed by the passionate in
junction, "Seat, you gray-headed
wretch!' and he seated.

The N. Y. Newspaper Reporter has
for some time past been making siren
uous efforts towards arousing the press
of the country to demand of Congress
the removal of the duty on printing
material, and it's efforts are apparent
ly about to be crowned with success.
In the last number received we find
the following editorial paragraph
"We were in Washington last week,
and are happy to report that the bill
for placing type and type metal on
the free list is generally conceded as
likely to pass without much opposi-
ton. The justice of the measure is
nnquestioned."

The little controversy which has
been going on for some time past be-
tween the CHIEF and our contempo-
rary the Leader, though at times prob
ably a bit outside the pale of proper
journalistic courtesy, has been thrown
completely into the shade by the vol
leys of vituperation and abuse fired at
each other weekly by the two Fell
ciana papers, Republican and Damn
Ledder. The Republican has the JUS
LITIGATION that its antagonist COM
menced the disgraceful fight, but it's
continuance cannot result in credit to
either of the journals concerned. 1t
is invariably either evidence of weak
ness ola cause or lack of ability on
the party of its upholders when they
abandon argument entirely and resort
to personal abuse to keep up a
show of maintaining the positions
they have assumed. We say,
gentlemen of the Republican and
Dunn Leader, leave this disgraceful
use of blackguardism and billingsgate
to such sheets as the Planters Banner,
whose character is in keeping with
the style.
