BenRs,ier,s x.rxe.

A Washington letter says: Bean.
eating Massachusetts never fights duels,
aud Batlers nerve has had to be expend.
ed in other ways. A notable instance of
this occurred in 1856, when Ben Butler
was . young practitioner at Lowell. The
Buchanan campaign was in tull progress
and great meeting was being held in
the largest hall Of the city. Rufus
Choate, the great lawyer, was addressing
the meeting. and his cloquence had
thrown them into the widest enthusiasm,
when o jar was felt and crash was
heard. The cry went forth, "the floor is
sinking" Every one turned pale, and
the audience rose for stampede, when
Ben Butler came to the front Of the
platform beside Mr.. Choate, and, calling
the audience to halt, said there was no
danger; that the architect of the build.
ing was present. and that he would 20
with him and examine the building, and
report, to ailay their fears. This auieted
the audience. Butler and the architect
made ON immediate examination of the
hall. and found the danger very great.
Butler ut once retured aud smilineIy as.
sured the audience there was no danger,
but as the hall was overcrowded he ad.
vised them to quietly adjourn to the
public square and there Mr.. Choate
would fnieh his speech. The crowd
went quietly out and the catastrophe
was averted. As Butler stepped on the
platform he had whispered to Mr. Choate
With half langh, in order to deceive the
audience. This is what he said: "Mr
Choate, I must clear this house or We
shall all be in bell in five minutes..'

Vests Congress Of Monkey..

Washington, April The senate
started out this morning to dispose of
the BLAIR educational bill, and sat late
into the night before 1t was finished.
There was O good deal of wild discussion,
and the southern senators occasionally
engaged in wordy duel over the sacred
rights of the sovereign states. About
two-thirds of the representatives from
that section are in favor OF the bill, but
the balance opposed it on the ground
that the nation has no constitutional
Of state. They are therefore at odds as
to their fayorite buEbeur, aud have been
reproaching each other for desefting their
fuvorite doctrine. The amendments pre-.
pared by the republican caucus were
adopted one after another, senator Blair
finally agreeing to go with bis colleagues
ne did not. Senator Vest Of Missouri,
who opposed the bill, rid.
iculed the democrats who abap.
doned their states rights doctrine
to get slice of this appropriation, and
said it reminded him OF the congress of
monkeys which assembled to discuss
grave constitutional questions, but was
broken up by some one throwing hand.
fuI of nuts among them. The democratic
monkeys were now scramolinR tor the
/ nuts. and the senator from Indiana
(Voorhees) was the liveliest monkey in
the lot. Senator Platt Of Connecticut,
among the republicans, objected to the
principle Of the bill, aud opposed it on
the ground that congress had no right to
distribute the public money among the
states, for any purpose. At IL O'Clock
MIR: Morgan, of Alabama, made a fnal
and pathetic appeal to the senate to
uphold and defend the dignity OF the
sovereign states, which by this bill was
made subordinate by the secretary of the
interior, u creature which exists only by
their consent, but his appeal was not
effective and more than half his demo.
cratic colleagues failed to support it.
About midnight the bill was passed With
about two.thirds of the democrats voting
for it.

DOVT TAX NONSENSE. SEN1TOR

Senator Lamar is reported ~ remarking that
"the South simply recognizes in the result of
"thc election the placing in power, for the first
"timc since the war of IN Administration not
"hostilc" TO her. In other words. Mr.. Lamar
charges that Republican administration since
the war has been hostile TO the South.
The Senator's own career furnishes an en-
phatc rcfutatiOn Of the Senator's idle charge
From sketch of his life which appears in the
Congressional Directory for 1881 we extract
the following
Lucius O. c. Lamar was elected TO the XXXvth
and XXXVIth Congresses OF tho United Statos and re-
aligned In 500 take scat In the Secession Conyen-
ton OF his State Mi.s-sppD In 1861 entered tho Con
fedcrato Army Mathematical of the 10Th
Regiment aud was promoted to the Colonccy; in s63
was intruslcd by President Davis with an important
diplomatic mission to Russia elected To the
XLId Consres, OF tho United states aud WAS reelected
to the XIVth Congress- and elected TO the United
States Senate as Democrat and took his seat
March .. 1877; was reelected IN 1882.
The facts above given dispose of Mr.. Lamar's
prcpostcrous libel on the Republican party. II
Republican administration since the war had
been hostile. or, even without being positively
hostile. had been just without beng morciful,
Lamar instead Of being to-day in the United
States Senate, the peer Of loyal men,
would be political outcast, dcbarred from vot-
ing and from holding Office, branded IA man
without country. And yet this Rebel Colonel
who. not content with taking up arms against
the Union went beyond tho seas with the de-
sign Of poisoning foreign sentiment, actually
complains that the Republican party has been
"hostilen To the South
Nor has Mr.. Lamar been an exception to tn,
general rule. His fellow traitors have alsC
been restored to all tho rights and privilege,
which they cni0ya I'd before the war-JcflersoI
