The prophecy was fulfilled !

BEN. BUTLER THROUGH DEMOCRATICS SPEC TAcLEs. democratic correspondent writing from Washington describes Gen. eral Butler:
 But here comes one fOurishing a white pocket handkerchief, and lettered all over with the importance of ecce homo. We behold a huge body on rather short legs, moving slowly but powerfully, like an en- zine full of pent up steam The head is large and bald, the nose peaked, the fore head with ridge across it an inch or so above the eyebrows, mustache partly conceals the mouth, and dropping eye lids laid in triangular wrinkles quite con ceal the eyes. That is General Butler. When in front of the desk he halts, blows his nose, and coolly and impudenly y sur veys the assembled legislators, and then passing on to his seat falls to talking with crony. If the imp of darkness ev- CT put his seal on humane face he stamp ed 1t on Buffers with vengeance. Next to the evil one he reminds me of Quilp- although never saw either to my knowl. edge-and then Nero, and so on until I conclude he belongs to the line of the old Roman emperors-as cruel, unprincipled and revengeful as the greatest of them all. He looks like an aristocratic old tyrant, who has fed on cruelty and plunder. But don't believe he is any thing of the sort If 1 should begin to tell tithe of the really good things I heard of him in his own neighborhood, my letter would be all Butler. l watch him at his desk as he talks with his mouth. and writes in bungling way with his hands, which are small with fingers white and tapering. He folds his note and his hands jerk and quiver as if he were very old or else he had the paralysis, while he is neither the one nor has the other. Presently he rises to speak, and with great dignity and so- lemnity offers 8 resolution, which when the Clerk reads it, proves to be bur- lesque, and puts the House in roar of laughter. Butler maintains his gravity until the laughter subsidies, when he laughs himself, during which he looks more like demon than ever. Notwith- standing the master whose badge he so unmistakably wears, this man is declared to be prince of good fellows, socially generous hearted, gentlemanly, and re- fined.

AMOUNT OF SLEEP.-Those who think m . st require the most sleep. The time saved from necessary sleep is destructive to mind, body, and estate. Give yourself, your children, your servants-give all un. der you, the fullest amount of sleep thev will take, by compelling them to go to bed at some regular, early hour, and to rise in the morning the moment they wake; and within fortnight, nature, with almost the regularity of the rising sun, will loose the bonds of sleep the moment enough repose has been secured for the wants of the system. This is the only safe and eff cient rnle; and as to the question how much sleep any one requires, each 1nuss be rule for himself-great Nature will never fail to write it out to the observer under the regulation just given.-Scien- tifc Aneric0n.

Mir. Fields account of his friend Flaw thorne, in his charming volume, ''Yester- day with Authors, Is genial and very ex quisitely touching. But he has omitted little incident in the life of the great nov elist which deserves recollection. When ex-President Pierce took him to New Hampshire. in the spring of 1864, hoping that the mountain air would revive his failing energies, they were stopped at a country tavern by an obstinate rain storm. As Hawthorne languidly reposed on the sofa during the second day, the brisk. cheerful ex-President, coming in from look at the clouds from without, said en- couragingly, "Well, Nat, this weather can't last forever" ''Ah Frank, |" replied Hawthorne, 'T fear it will last nag tis,ae. " This was but few days before Haw. thorne's death, and betrayed his con sciousness that his life on earth was a tale nearly told.

Bancroft Davis seems to be the evil genius of the Government. It was his pen that wrote up the consequential claims of the American Case with such acrid particularly of detail that the state nent creates revulsion in the mind of whoever reads it; and he ordered thepub- ication of Minister Marsh's confidential note which disturbs the cordial relations of that invaluable officer with the Italian government. Some men are genial as Q frosty morning and sympathetic as He.

The bullet of Stokes broke the Erie Ring. Fisk was the larger part of it, and his death has resulted in it's demoraliza- tion. At the meeting to fill vacancies in it's Board of Directors, Jay Gould was de- feated, and Gen. Dix was elected Presi- dent. This looks like crisis. May it end in the recovery of the road by its rightful owners, if it has any rightful owners but from present appearances it would require posse of detectives, aided by dozen torchlight procession, to ciscov- CT who they are, dds

A correspondent of The Detroit Tribune describes at some length fearful curse of hydrophobia, where the man was in con- vulsions, barking like a dog," frothing at the mouth, and making strenuous efforts to bite everything..that came near. Dur ing these convulsions the patient would seize the pillows from his bed in his teeth and shake and rend them with all the seeming ferocity of an angry dog. An intense dread of water also exhibited itself
 The doctors decided to place the patient upon the same treatment which had been successful in former case, which, for the aid it may be to others who suffer from this disease, we here give, as fol- lows The injection under the skin of large doses of morphine, and the admin
 istration of large doses of castor, which is 8 powerful anti-spasmodic. About one grain of the sulphate of morphine was in- iected under the skin once in four hours, and a half 8 drachm of the powdered castor, mixed with syrup, given internal ly. The effect was to produce sleep in about half an hour, when the convul- sions returned at intervals of about an hour and half until nine o'clock Sunday morning when the last convulsions occur red, after which he suffered severely from obstinate vomiting until Monday at ten o'clock, when that also ceased, leaving him comparatively easy, but much prostra- ted. Since that time he has gradually improved, and is now, to all appearances, quite we'll. In addition to the above treatment small quantities of chloroform were inhaled at times, and on Sunday morning the patient was wrapped in wool en blanket wrung out of warm solution of muriate of amonia, eighteen or twenty grains to the ounce. This was the treat ment which checked this fearful malady, and which the doctors, for the sake of humanity are anxious should hepublished to the world and thoroughly tested.

At the period at which these incidents occurred, I was 8 young man going on my first circuits. I had not as yet been honored with perhaps more than three or four briefs, and these only in cases so meagre of fees, that I was compelled to study economy in my excursions. h. stead of taking up my residence at an inn when visiting -, considerable sea- port, where the court held it's sittings, I dwelt in lodgings kept by widow. lady, perfect quietness, free from interruption.
 On the evening after my. arrival on the March circuit of the year IT,, I vas sit ting in my lodgings pesusing new work on criminal jurisprudence, when the land lady, after tapping at the door, entered my room.

Government would never have heard of
Mr.. Webb's letter. wish to add that it
would take large subsidy from the Colo
MES or the United States, if the relative
wealth of the several countries were con.
sidered the basis, to reach that already
paid by the Hawaiian Government in the
grat,tities afforded to this line, and which,
if no further subsidy were ever passed or
mentioned, should have led to retaining
from the ungraciOus act of refusing to
take the mail.
The Minister'S letter opens the door for
an explanation (Which l hope may be
made, for wish to see Mr. Webb's line
established here,) and see no other way
in which the Government can make ad

THERE are some peculiarities in this
town, that present to the observer oppor-
tunities for instruction and amusement in
as great a degree, as in larger and more
busting communities. Perhaps they are
more amusing, from the fact of their being
more salient For instance, we point
out in our leading article of to-day the
small popularity of an Independent
Press" which, on Thursday last, thought
that sufficient had been said on the sub
ject of Mr.. Webb's steam line, and vet
on Saturday found it necessary to go in"
again; doubtless on the principle, sour
only aim is the Public Good"
And it viii be further amusing to our
readers to observe the change of base of
the gentlemen who aver themselves TO be
the expositors of what they are pleased
to call ~AIr. Webb's controversy with
this Government: a controversy which
has been, so far as We know, or are ad-
vised, initiated by the Independent
journal. In their paper of the 25th of
November we find the following:
an view Of our position, we are not at all Ger
tain that the line would not come without a sub
sidy, and with all tie fees to pay
And in their paper of December 9th,
quoting the extract above, we find the
following comment thereon:
HThst incidental remark, which occurred in
the commercial column. was but the echo Of
public opinion in this community. The idea Of
our small and poor country undertaking to place
