"SrooSs' BUTLER. We believe the
,ohriquet was applied to General Butler on
account OF no particular act OF spollatlon
but from the fact that during his admins
ration as commander in chief Of this mill
'9ry district seizures Of the private plate OF
citizens were acts OF almost every day oc-
eu-rence; and 1t was supposed that the plate
% seized was confscated for his private
.rnefit. SO keen Il scent did Butler have
Tor family plate, iewelry, and other yalua-
1les, that few rich collections escaped seiz-
ire those days, even when they belonged to
oyalists and ombatants.---Neo Orleans

TROOPS TO THE FRoNT.-It has not been
definitely settled, so far as learned, where
the Returning Board will hold Its sessions.
1t Is probable that the custom-house will be
selected. This is inferred from the fact that
about five hundred troops arrived here yes
terday afternoon and last night and took up
their quarters at the custom-hotlse. They
were placed in the fourth story. Colonel
Fletcher, who commands the troops which
came FROM Alabama, says that the troops are
under orders to remain until the completion
