We are at present chewing the bitter
cud of discomfort. On all the we'd
dings that have taken place around
this community during the last year
we have received but one treat, while
all around us we hear rumors of the
sterner sex having reaped a rich har-
vest after each of those happy events.
Now with all due respect for time hon
ored customs, we question the justice
of this one. We can we'll understand
the efficiency of feasting and RECALLING
the lords of Creation, just before Town
meetings and Charter Elections; but
in the event of nuptial knots being
tied, we think it is showing an unjust
partiality and are ready to affirm this
with our tongue and defend the as
sertion with our pen, (said pen being a
relic of old decency). Now while
smarting under past injustice, and
wishing to guard against like i'll treat
ment in the future, we would say to
the marriagable youth of the present
generation, beware. There is a point
at which forbearance ceases to be a
virtue. We do not smoke, but we
plead guilty to an excessive weakness
for chocolate creams and all kindred
bon-bons.

Ben Butter Gone.

Though long in public life, General
Benjamin f. Butler left small impress
upon public affairs. His military
record was striking and picturesque,
and his various exploits have passed
into current history without giving him
lasting military reputation. Never
theless, he was one of the most promI-
nent figures of the civil war. His
political career, which began before
the war and was renewed subsequently
lacked consistency. At one time he
appeared as democrat. again as a
republican and next as a greenbackeT.
lie too often played the part of a
political turncoat and mountebank to
gain popular confidence, but his strong
eccentricties always kept him in the
public eye, and gave him a n0toriety
that had some basis in admiration of
the mans ability and energy. As n
lawyer he enjoyed high repute and a
lucrative practice.
General Butler will longest be re-
membered as an eccentric genius who
was forever doing something that at
tracted attention. His extraordinary
performances during the war were un-
equalled by his remarkable political
exploits afterward, in most of which
he was an unsuccessful candidate for
some elective Office. He was an inter-
est;ng but Intellectual politician, as he
was a meteoric and reckless general.
But he was always Ben Butler and
unique character.
