OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WAS?INCTON, D. C., March 21,1871.
-Ben. Butler is still on the rampage with bis
Ku Klux bill, and is further from having it
pawed than ever. Ile offered it yesterday for
reference, but objection iras made to having it
printed, which so infuriated tht cyclopean mem?
ber from Essex that he objected to every bill
which the Democrats desired to have printed.
Butler is nut a beauty in bis sweetest mood, bat
wheo he loses his temper his features are diabol?
ically demotiisb.
Yesterday the House amended the Senate res?
olution fur a joint committee io investigate the
condition ot tbe South, by increasing t?ic com?
mittee from the Mouse to 14, and also directing
that tlie committee report ai the cex' session.
This was another bitter pill fur Butler, os it
greatly reduce* his chance of having his Ku Klux
bill even considered. There is no reasonable
doubt but that the Semite will concur.
Tho House yesterday, for the third time, show?
ed its desire io delay until next session tbe
question of fuitber legislation for the South, by
resolving, by a vote of 121 to ?4. to adjourn on
Thursday, the 23rd inst. Whether tho Morton
wing of the Radicals, who represent Hen. tirant
and his ambitions ard speculative idear, will
tissent, is very doubtful The adjournment of
Co.igress is the tu-st uncertain question of the
day.
On Saturday the 1T?, lenn, lank, Senator
from Obie-Sherman-?engaged the attention of
the Senate for several hours, during which t me
be delivered ese f thc bitteres! and most vin?
dictive tirades .;;,ninst the Sooth tlint lever
listened lo. He rivalled J)r?ke in bitterness,
he equaled Morton in b!u"d thirstiness, bc was
the peer of Den. Untier iii his disregard of the
tvatb. and only tailed in his attempt to cope
with Ern. Wade in blasphemy ; as a cns ser Ben
isa leetle ahead. Yesterday the able and gen?
tlemanly >cnator fruta Delaware -Mr. Eayard
tore Mr. Sheratan's tirade of abuse, a.? it cannot
bc dignified by the name of speech, all to piece?,
proving to all lair mii.ded ptr.-ons that the
ncliuti of thc outrage committee was vilely par?
tisan, end that the lawless actions of bad men
have been distorted an 1 magnified to scetn the
rork of a political party, both hy the Radical
pros s and Radical leaders, and now by a Radical
Senate. He said that thc Kadicu) party knew
that their les se of power in the South was gone,
and tli.it they were now resorting lo these mon?
strous mea-ures to have til?' electoral vote of the
Sooth by forre. Mr. .Sherman soon slunk outuf
his seat, after Mr. Bayard began, und during
th? fou- hours which he was arraigning Mr.
.?Herrn m and his party for thc deliberate slan?
ders Ottered against :!ie S-'tttb. te kept himself
bili. I door think he was : 'named, n* no mun
capable ol 'sba a . c?nld bare delivered bimsclfas
'. J ?Int Sheratan. The reason for this violent
attack on the Southern whites I do not know;
evidently >hcri-i-n bas something to ask from
(? i-:tnt when be!? els Hie necessity of departing
from bis u.- u.il mild manner, tboogfa he always
votes with the extrema men of his party, und
thus out Monea Morion in vileness of speech.
?encrai (?rant has retained from his Phila?
delphia trip. Hs went to church while there,
and I lt c ''lady minister gave as his text, tbe
prayer ? f Jabez, Iron the First Chronicles
"Oh. that thou wouldst bless me. indeed, mid
emfarge ny rofr.f, and that Thy hand misfit be
with mc. end that Thoa wouldst keep rae from
evil, that it may not grieve me; and God granted
bira that which bc requested." (?runt will ?<e

Conkling to get his cxtti enlnrtftd than on his
praying, as ?lid Jabez, and unlike thc latter, he
will not have h's request arante I Grant tried

EFFECT OFTItE PBBSTPEXr's SPECIAL MESSAGE 05
THE REPCBtlCAXS-C056RKM IO REMAIS IM
BESSIOS-LKGISLATIoM FOIt THE SO ITH.
[Special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.]
Wellington, March 23.-It ia at last settled
that there is to bc a session of Congress. The
President has spoken, and the House has re?
versed its decisions on final adjournment, and
decided to remain nnd legislate on the condition
of affairs in the South. This sudden change was
brought nl out by thc President rending to both
Mouses a special message, alluded to in these dis?
patches last night, in which be urgently "recom?
mend* sach legislation ag io the judgment of
Congress .?hall effectually secure life, liberty, and
property, nnd the enforcement of the laws in nil
parts ot thc Unite I States."
In thc House, as soon us the message was rea il,
Mr. Sbcllabarger, from the Kepuhlican side,
move? f?r a select committee of nine, to whom
thc message should be referred, with instructions
to repost a bilL It ras amusing lo seo in thc
debate that followed thc Republican members
who had been opposing such legislation turn
around and yield to thc Presidential beck by
favoring it now.
Mr. Dawe?, who had been preeminent in en?
dear rir.g to secure a final adjournment, was
suddenly willing to stay and legislate, and Mc
(?arfield, who ten days ego demonstrated quite
clearly that the President had all the power that
was needed to enforce the law* and suppress
disorder, now saw th? situation in a very differ
cnt light, and thought that Congress ought to
remain and do something. Many of these
Itcpub'icans had, not an hour before, voted that
there was no reason why the House should sit
longer than .Monday. The reception of a Presi?
dential message of cot ?mre than twenty lines
wrought all this change, and secured a united
vote in the Republican ranks. The Democrats
made thc point on thc Pre?ide:it that two weeks
ar? he had informed Congress that he bad no
business to communicate, a nd no event had trans?
pired since lo induce hint to change his mind.
?;<-n. Farnsworth suggested that ?erne one had
changed it for him.
Gen. L'ut'cr was "in great glee that Speaker
(Maine, and Dawes, and Garfield, and other
Republican members who had been opposing
legislation, ha 1 nt last been forced to come out
in iavor of it. The President wrote this message
early this forenoon an I took it to the capitol
himself, where he remained in conference two
lours with Republican Senators sod members
before sending it lo either boase. The special
committee of the Hons? will probably report a
bi'l on Monday, which will he il?-hated most of
thc we-k and then passed nod sent to the Senate,
where it will probably be pending two weeks.
It is core? .led that the session will therefore last
a nioii!u long-.r.

Thc W ..-langton correspondent of the New
V..rk Wnrld says:
T?? div. Senators Robertson and Sawyer ae

Gcer-'l of South Carolina, and L. C. C.irpenti r
t?. the Executive man?ion. thc two last named
h ving been delegated by thc Governor of that
Plate to visit ?bs President cn the subject of af
fording protection fo the people in the upper part
r.t'Sooth Carolina, near the North Carolina line.
Mr. CliHiiit?erl?in represented the condition of af?
fairs in that section, and derired to knew bow
loi g (lie four romper ic? of cavalry now o.a their
way would remain there, for he said that if their
. joiirn vere only f>r a brief period, it would do
nv r- barm <l un g?*?d. The President listened I ,
patiently to the representations made by him. j ^
ii.d a?<nre-i they gentlemen that the troops !

peate and secure ol cd ter ce lo the laws, even if t
ney sh' u!d l>e thus e-nployed outing the remain . |
1er of his administrai ion. The gentlemen ex- j
vressed t' erase!ves si . i-ficl. and will to morrow
eave f-Thorne. When Senator Hohertson was
isked I v :hc delegation to accompany them, he
?h erfuliy consented, saying that?? 3 representa
:ive of all classes in South Carolina, he w mid do

ranees of which t ej complained.

? i' recent Commerri-il letters, may be classified
is plain talk :
Ile ba? openly bought hi? way info the Senate,
nd u?ed th* Senate lo replace the pn-chare
noney. As Secretary cf War he inaugurated
bc system of stealing that has since nearly de
troyed our g" vern den I Hi.? civil -ervice eon
i-t? of a conjugation of the verb steal : ''I steal ;
bou Heftiest; he, site, or it Meals; we steal ; ye or
on steal." and so on down to the im pern ti c
nood of ''Steal thou or lc? h m steal." When at
ast kicked out by an indignant country he
ignali/.ed his depr.rture by carrying off whole
Firrels of morfey. And all thia was done while
be capital of nor country was actually invested
>y the enemy, and the r> ar of their guns throb
ied ?pon tho very walls of his department,
rhere he sat like a huge spider, weaving pol i r i

orerntnent and oppressed people.

Memorial of Bishop Andrew.
The regular morning services nt the Metho?
dist Church in this town, on Sabbath last, were
employed, by the able and beloved pastor, Rev.
II. A. C. WALKER, in commemorating thc life,
character, services and death of the late Bishop
JAMES OSOO<P AJDXKW. They were impressive
and deeply interesting throughout-in prayer,
ii sacred song, and in speech?
They were commenced by the. reading of the
I rand and awe inspiring account of the ascen?
sion of the pr?. .et Elijah, "up by a whirlwind
into Heaven,' from the company of Elisha, ns
t.ie two walked together on the banks of the Jor
can-the waters of which, under the smiting of |
Hlijah's mantle, "were divided hither and thith?
er, so that the two went over on dry ground"
found in it Kings, chap. II. And Paul's interview
*ith the elders at Miletus-, when he tells tbenr.
vi.nt is to befall him, Ac., in the Acts, chap. 20.
Doddridge's touching hymn,
What though the ann of conquering death
Docs lind's own house invade?
Wh it though thc prophet ami the priest
Be numbered with the dead?
was then announced and sung by the congrega?
tion ; And after an earnest and soul inspiring
prayer, the equally touching hymn, by Mont?
gomery,
Servant of God. well done !
itest fron: thy loved employ ;
The battle fought, the vict'ry won,
Enter thy Matter's joy.
Verses C. 7 and 8 of chap, ir, of ti Timothy
were announce! as thc text or basis of roma I ks :
'*F'tr I nm now ready to be offered, and thc
time of my dep-irturo is at hand.
I h:ivc "fought a good ?gfit. I have finisbed my
course, I Im ve kept the faith :
Henceforth there ii laid up for ire a crown of j
righteousness, which tho Lord, the rights us
judge, shall give to me nt that d:iy : and not to
me only. Lat unto all them also that I ve his ap?
pearing."
For an hour or more the gifted preacher held
his congregation deeply interested. Allusion was
first made to the prent truth that (Jud removes
his workmen and yet carries on bis work, the
pertinent p.-inls in the history of Elijnh, of
Moses and of Paul being cited to illustrate the
point And from these, general remarks, consola
tory, wiredrawn. Thc life anl services and
death of tho Bishop were then sketched-here j
and there a beautiful point, ?Ilustrativo of the
Intellectual power, firmness or devotion of the
great preacher being mude, from either wbut he !
had said or other eminent preachers bad said of
him. We wish that our space permitted us to
allude to some of them. The last, dying message I
of the Bishop to bis brethren of the Episcopacy,
wa.? given, in these words : "Tell theta tbat I
would be glad to be with them in May, but I
cannot, for I am fully persuaded the time for me j
to go is near at band-that I have entire confj
dence in them all, and die rejoicing that God
bas put the Church under their guidance and
juperintendency-thnt they must ever livo in !
peace nnd harmony."
The discourse was closed beautifully and amid j
much feeling, appropriate and grateful te which '
was the singing ol Charles Wesley's sweet hymn : j
Come let us join our friends nbovo

Tbe Next Cotton Crop.
Tb? New Orleans Picayune, of s recent date,
s.tye it bas closely examined the papers with a .
riew to ascertain the intention of the planters ?
with regard to tho next cotton crop, nnd that;
Trim nearly every portion of the South the re j
ports agree in stating that the acreage under 1
litton will be largely reduced this sprint'. In !
lome districts it is said that not half as much
j
:otton will be planted as was last season. And
hat, on the whole, it safely estimates from
twenty five to forty per cent, r?duction in the
acreage.
If tbis be so, the planters arc beginnirg to j
realize the effect of neglecting lood crops. Ii
'ins brought the coumry to the very verge of
Narration once or twice since the war. Cotton I
.an not bo profitably planted at the expense of
the bread and meat products of tb? country.
When ibis is done, thc price of thc staple is so
mneh lowered, as to make il ruinous to buy ,
i--:id and meat. With thc f>od of the country ,
aised at home, not only is there independence in
h it great vital department, but the nrreage in
mit*? must tc less, and consequently the price
if the staple higher. ; <
We sincerely hope, for tho good of thc eonntry ? ?
mniediately around us, that oar planters, gen
Telly, intend to pursue a similar course. We
:rge il npon them with all the earnestness of j '
.hieb ac are capable.

Judge Montgomery Hosea.'
The Carolina Spartan, of March 23, in its
I Conrt article, speaks as follows of our fellow
citizen, Judge MOXTCOMERT Mosts. We are
pleased to see that he is making so favorable aa
impression among the good people of Spartan
burg-than whom there is no more intelligent
or high- toned eommnnity in the State:
"Judge Moses, upon opening the Cocrt, de?
livered a practical and sensible charge to the
Grand Jury, which pleased oar people, and satis?
fied them that the Judicial ermine rests upon
worthy shoulders. This is the first Court Judge
Moses has held since bis eleetion, and be bas
presided with that dignity, courtesy and ability
which have won for him thc good opinions of j
our bar, and the people.
Butler and the Kn-Klnx.
A Washington letter to the Norfolk Journal,
says the valorous Butler was beset by a fearful
Ku-Klux a few nights ago, whee returning to
bis residence, at a lute hour, from a eaucur on the
Ku-KIux question. He had alighted from bis
coupe, end iras about to ascend the stepping
when an apparition stood forth in cowled and
spectral hideousness, with a gu (feral "Hold!
your head!" Butler's eonchman, who drove
howling from the scene, is represented assaying
that his master ejaculated an '"Ugh !" and let
himself inside his protecting mansion with a
celerity altogether unbecoming a soldier and a
statesman. Butler fights tba Ku Klux bravely
at a distance.
Burlington Agricultural Fair.
WP observe, from published notices, tad from
a private letter of the Seeretsry, Mr. W. E.
JAMES, that the Agricultural Society of Darling?
ton will hold a Fair some time during the coming
fall. The premium list will be promulgated in
due time, and adjoining counties will be freely
invited to compete. We shall be pleased to notice
the effort* of our Darling' n neighbors, in this
connexion, again, and more minutely, when wo
shall be in possession of the necessary informa?
tion.
Death of Willis ra Colclough Skinner.
It becomes our unhappy privilege to notice
the death of this young gentleman, that occured
in Hamburg, S. C. on the 2nd ult. He was a
son of t ne lute HARVET SKINNER, Esq... of Sum?
ter, and a resident of Clarendon.
For some timo he was a sufferer from a com?
bination of diseases, that culminated is aeon
sumption that proved itself fatal within a few
mouths. At an carly age be connected himself
with (be Baptist Church, and so greet was bis
dev tioo to duty, that be never, at any time,
became unfaituful to the vows be made at ber
altar.
Yet Lis life was not unmixed with sorrow. It
was his fortune to see m jy bright joys fads,
and the friends of his sunshine flee away at win?
ter's edd approach; but no cloud of adversity
wa? ever so dark ns to obscure the brightness
beyond to which he felt be was going.
He 'iras patient and uncomplaining, snd bis
speedy dissolution was not looked for, when sod?
denly, waking from bis bleep, be raised up and
said to one in the roam, '"I'm gore!" An effort
was made to restore him, bt.t thc sad words again
repeated were too true ! He was gone to the dis.
tant Aidcn ; gone to the paradise of God. Mr.
SKISSER'S deatb will occasion many regrets in
the large number of bis friends, and a real sor?
row that in young manhood's prime, accomplish?
ed, amiable and affable, and with a cbnroetcr
beautified with each genuine christian grace, he
hns been called away, and gone from the earth
forever. A. FRIEND.

For Sale.
PLANTERS who may nish to strppTy them?
selves with this valuable Seed can do se by
calling OD
Capt, L. P. LORIN G, at Sumter,
'. My Agent for the sale of them.
Attention is directed to the following extract
from a letter to the subscriber, by Mr. W. E,
Bunker, Factor, of Nc- York,'under date of j
November 14, 1870:
"I have, after full trial cf your (D) 2 and (P)
1 on the market, sold them at 18| certs. These
were nice cottons io some respects, but very bad?
ly ginned, whicn left the staple of great irregu?
larity. Had the staple been uniform, they would
have brought 22} or moro. I submitted the
samples to an expert in long staples, who taid,
after :? elote examination, that all you needed
was a slow and dull gin which wonld prevent
this cotton from being cnt."
The yield per acre ts about as much as that of j
any of the other cotton? now planted.
