W. Dudley and his Card. When a man courts notoriety with hIs pen, by airing himself or his opinions in the newspapers, he must expect criti cism; nor should he complain if the crit icisma takes the form of censure. The writer of the "Cari" in question, is open to cri:icismi, because he risiakes facts and by so doing niisrepresents our pe( pie ; he is open to censure, for h- strikes in the house of his friends, naligns hi own people, and mrakes apologies for their enemies. To sustain thee charges let us examine his positions lie says: "It must. be admitted that our conquerors were generous; not a shout frorn a victot ious soldier insulted the miafortuns of a brave but un;ortu nate army, &c. We had supposed that the utter disregard by the E:it-.d S:at-s, Government of the termNs of surrender was not an act of generosity, nor indeed (if C*iflomoni j ustice, that the lawless pil lage and arson perpetrated in inyy in stances by the Unittd States troops, was not ealeu:ited te evoke sentimerits of gratitude from our people. ie says fur ther, that : fte-r '"tile diin of war was toe," the Northern people, "from their private resour,es," furnished food, &.

These were the "nai.,n\ w:rds4," as they were termed, :nod had a right to expect food at the hands of the Government whii had imade the n "hoineless and housekss." Accordingly rations were fo,- awhile issued to indigent blacks and pauper whites, who l;ad ne ver borne arms ag:iinst the Government. This is 'he extent of the charity, so far as we are ade-ed.

A rather amusing story is in cir(uIa ion at the expense of the eminent ge'n- K leman from Massachusetts, commonly alled, "Old Strabismus." At the Pre-i lent's leve the other night, which was lensely crowded, an old lady from -the nterior somewhere, in a fainting cone.i. ion, requested her husband to get her in ice. "Can't be did," responded "hub," in ome irritation ; "there ain't no refrea. nents here." "Don't believe it. Didn't we get plen y at Belknap's the other night!" the cod woman said angrily ; "now go and ret me an ice and sotue lemonade." "I tell you now don't be a fool; there Lin't no refreshmiients, everybody says ;o," grunted the lord end master. - "You are quite nistaken, sir," said he lon. S. S. Cox, wbo happened to he ear, and who never loses an opportuni y to put in al,ke. "Thf- president al vays provides substantially. Thqre is is hurler, whose bu.inesb is to show In. lies to the supper room," and the Hon. itile jester pointed to General Butle:. 'You'l find him a little stuck up aind :ross, but you musn't mind that; tell iin to get you terrapins." This was said so gravely that the two itruggled through the crowd to where 3enleral Butler was talking to some la lies. "I say, master, I am told you are the )utler," said the man. "I'm Geineral Butler," replied Old 3tratpi.smus lilesantly, thinking the tAwo ;ouie country people filled with admiia ion of his greatness. "I don't care whether you are a gelse a butler or not, but my wife wants omne terrapir,s and lemonade." "Sir ?" storted old B. in amazement ind disgust. "Oh ! don't take on airs, old c((k. .;oine now, hurry up those terrapins." "You must be drunk, sir! you mu-t >e drunk !" ''No he ain't," screamed the wife. "Il e's a Good Templar ; he ain't drunk, )ut I guess you are." Roars of laughter greeted this, in which S. S. Cox was forced to join. Gen. Butler reddened in the face, and began puffing his cheeks out in the Most vio erit manner. "I don't understand this extraoidinaiv ,.rhduct. What do you want, sir--nhat, lo you i ant ?" "Terrapins, I tell you." "What do you take me for, you cussed lool ?" roared Benjamin. "You call ne a cussed fool and I'll hit you on the snout," screamed the man. At this juncture an officer of the police seized the befligerent hu,band and l%d rim away amid much laughter. Bu:le, urnring suddeily, s"aw the tmisvhief mra . r. "I.sy, ox, didi y.u do thrat?"
