evening:
PHILADELPHIA, June 6, 1877.
To Gen. B. T. Butler, Washington, d. O.:
| am sure you have overworked your
inventive faculties, for your long and
labored letter of to-day shows signs of
failing powers, and will go far to de-
stroy that reputation for effective sour
rillity which you have so sedulously fos-
tered.
The issue between you and me was OF
your own seeking, and is SO plain that
YOU cannot obscure 1t by any amount of
Misrepresentation, however irrelevant
or vulgar. You deliberately wrote and
published concerning me four sheer
falsehoods, withouta particle OF founda-
ton for any one OF them. Thereupon !
very promptly put you on the national
pillory. with very legible statement OF
YOUR offenses upon your forehead.
As you have endured your punish
ment for an entire week, and now vir-
tually confess that every statement
made by you was untrue, l have no OBJ
lection to your getting down, but you
must not suppose that 1 placed YOU

there in resentment only. My chief
purpose was to exhibit you as warning
to younger men, by showing them that,
had become the leper of our politics, by
reason of the general conviction that
you habitually disregard the eighth and
ninth commandments. That purpose
has been fully answered by the COM
ments Of the country upon your charac-
ter, and 1 have no further interest In
the matter.
/ will not even take the trouble to
deny any new falsehoods you think 1t to
your advantage to invent about me; for
