The EJECT of Mr.. Buffers Death.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. Jan. l.-Special.
The death Of Mr.. Butler closes a re-
markable career, which is TO a consider
able extent interviewer with the history
Of the South. Still. with their acknowl-
edgment Of his abilities. there is nothing
In this association that will cause the
people Of that section TO mingle unusual
regrets with their comments at this
time.
No incident is more prominently thought
Of Just now in the legislative career of
Mr.. Butler than his fierce attack upon
Mr.. James G. Blaine in the Forty-second
Congress. There are probably only two
members OF the present House tMessrs.
Holman and ONeill, Of Pennsylvania)
who were members OF that Congress- and
the bitterness OF that antagonism is only
recalled now in the death OF Mr.. Butler
and the fact that each passing hour now
is lifting it's veil for Mr. Blaine that in
tervenes between the feeting breath and
the mysteries Of the future life.
