Wash. ington ietter i th o a tieore Sun] there wns a little breeze between d Generals Butler and Sohenok (a part ing shot on each side) which momen tarily roused the Hoube. The matter grew out of the debate on the whiskey af d tobacco tax bill and insinuation e heretofore wade by General Butler n and-repeated on Friday night. In 2 ,repjy, exteral Sohenek used some - very pointed. and bitter expressions, Lt. _lIe..Aaid, among other things, that he '9 admired an open foe, for he knew then n where to find him and what course to e pursue, but he' had the utmost con d tempt- for the'dastard who would not ' only deliberately lie, but who, by n itbiratliatitig rewrks, added cowardice to the faleh,jod ; and he thanked 'God ' that his dispoaition did not carry him a in thio direction, and that he never engaged in that. sort of a contest. d General Butler, who had betn on one of the.lounges on the Democratic h side of the House, here appeared upon h the sone, and, coolly smoking his ci ar, walked over to his seat. Mr. n ogan, who had also made much op position to the bill, asked Mr. Shenok If' he allt ded to him. Mr. Shonok V replied negatively. Mr. Butler here r- desired to ask a question, and every n body was on the qui vive to know what was coming. The Massachusetts e member avoided the direct question, y but asked Mr. Sohonok if he had no. ver read of the Pharisee who said he d thanked God that he was not as other men. Mr. Schenok said he had, and added that the gentlemen from Massa 'chusets was perfectly familiar with it doubtless, because everything that . smaoked of hypocrisy was fami iar to the gentleman, however it might o come. This created a momentary osensation, but it soon passed off, ap , parently, although General Butler, alluding to it afterwards, said he would at the,.proper time, show by inoontro vertable proof that what had been ehataoterzed as insinuations had a real fotindation in fact. CoLUMnA AND AUGUSTA RAILROAD. 0 Colonel William Johnson, President of the Columbia and Augusta Rail Road, has memorialized the City Council of Augusta to grant a free transit to such carriages, omnibuses, drays and wagons as may be necessa ry to do the transportation between the terminus of the road and the tem porary' depot, until the completion of the bridge across the river. The pe tition says : The traek of the Columbia and Augusta Rail Road is expected to be laid to the base of Schultz's hill, where it is ascended by the Beeoh Is land Road, a point not less than a mile from your city, within the next six weeks. At this, point a .temporary depot will be established, until the bridge can- he enstructed across the Savannah River, for the purpose of receiving and delivering freights and passengers. In consideration of the limited resources of the Company and . the increased commercial facilities a thus afforded to the city of Augusta, the Columbia and Augusta Rail Road t Company respectfully ask that your . honorably body grant a free transit to .such carriages, omnibuses, drays and .wagons as may be necessary to do the transportation between the city and said'temporary depot until the comn a pletion of said bridge across the river. A CHILD ATTACKED BY RATs.--Te -Reading (Pa.) .Dispatch says: 'rhe house of Mr. Joseph 11ello. I way, near Douglaseville, is infested I with rats, and so complete is their ,. sway that they have undertaken to o drive.the family from their home. Oni Monday night a little child was f put.' to bed, and after it had been I: asleep several large rats attacked it and.ate a large portion of the flesh off its handa, arms, and facd, before its o ries were heard by the parents. The Siutilation of the child is related as -h6trible and heart-sickening. Medi cal' aid was summoned, but it Is fear "ed that the child cannot long survive Bit. injuries. Where rats 'infest houses too. much precaution -cannot be exer o ited to avoid their poltonous bites.. The Cincinnati Gazette (Radical) is Sopposed to any more test oaths. It says: "Experience has proved that swearing will not make rebels loyal nor save a country. It was supposed e that by tradition' the American peo.

A gull had, with a swoop, struck its tal ons deep into the back of a fish, the size of which it had evidently mistak en, for instead of bearing it away, as it had intended, the fish not on ly remained in the water, but swain rapidly about on the surface of the river, mounted by its fluttering and now alarmed assailant, which was una ble to disengage its claws from their fastonings. The bird, in its endeav ora at first to carry off and thon to free itself from its intended prey, soon exhausted its streigth, and its efforts becoming gradually weaker from ox haustion, the would be captor became the captured, was dragged soroaming beneath the water and its death notes choked by the rippl'ng waves as they closed over it-Alerandria Gazette. PEACE IN TENNESsE -All the poo ple of Tenuessee, Democrats and Radi. eals, appear to agree that since Brown low evacuated the Governorship and went to Washington the condition of the State is entirely different from what it was. The Radicals, it is true, do not generally ascribe, in so many words, the great change to Brown. low's departure, but some of them do, and all admit that the change is ac tual, substantial, and most happy one. Strife and turmoil, have almost whol ly ceased, and peace and harmony have taken their place. No acts of violence, or, at any rate, as fow as in any State South or North, are record ed. The clouds of trouble have pass ed away, and the sun, moon and stars, shine in the blue sky. The militia that created so much disturbance, keeping alive and exasperating the feeling of violence, have been dis banded, and are returning to their homes, and a contented people are left behind theni.-Louw'ville Journal. INDIcATIONs OF AN APPItOACHING \VAR.-The International, of London, under date of the 23i1 ultimo, men tions that correspondence from Berlin, from authentic sources, leaves no doubt respecting the military precau tions now being taken by Prussia. A mobolization of the Landwohr is im ninent, and it is added that news re ceived from Paris fully authorizes these steps. In fact the prevailing conviction in official circles in Berlin is that Frace is preparing for an ear ly war ; large purchases of horses are reported, and it is even hinted that the general elections will consequently not take place until July 1, 1869. WELL-RECODIDIENDED MANIACS.-A dispatch to the New York Tribune on Mondoy, opoking -of t,ho nomina tions sent to the Senate, says: The bonafide list came later in the I day,but not before the Senate adjourn- 1 ed, and General Porter conveyed it back to the White House, to be pro duced again to-morrow. The Presi dent, being asked to-night by a lead ing senator some of the names in this list, said he did uui rememaber them. He or ly knew there were half a dos en maijacs that were well receom mended to leave the country, and that he should be glad to get rid of THE ALABAMIA CI.AiIs.--It is gen erally believed that the Johnson (Re verdy),treaty concerning the Alaba ma elaims will be rejected in the Uni ted States Senate. The New York imesw Washington correspondent says the vote against it will be almost unanimous. What -then ? Some body has to back down, or there will be a collision. Somebody will back down, and there will be no collision!i DEsTRuc0TiVE FIRE IN GEOnGIA. The town of Madison, the county town of Morgan county, Ga., was al most entirely destiroyed by fire on Thursday night last.

Twenty-nine stores and business houses and a large number of residences were burnt, leaving a. great man persons in an entirely destitute Mongrel editors nre frothing at the month with indignation because the Spaniards send their Cuban prisonera to Fernando Po, an island( on:which to live "is wvorse than death."

"The times are out of joint," else men with well-balanced minds, who reflect on the evident destinies of the two sexes, would never lend the least influence to weigh the scales in favor of giving the ballot to women. The more intellec tual and refined, the woman is, the more she must shrink from coming in contact with the coarse and vulgar in fluences that attend political life. The high prerogative of woman to purify the hearts, 'and elevate the thoughts, infuso religion into the minds of all around her, in a word do all which renders her, so much better A than man, should not be recklessly abandoned, for the sake of some posi tion, in the political world, which de generates and debases all who enter theiein. Let not even those of your sex who call themselves your friends tempt you. Women of the South, crowned with fairest flowers, and brightest laurels to leave the sacred retirement in which you sit apart from all that might sully your spot loss robes, for the fanatical throng, the grovelling multitude, who would allure you on to destruction, so as to render you more like themselves.

The Columbus (Ga.) Sun, of the 10th instant, in its weekly review of that market, says In the speculations concerning the coming crop one element seems to have been entirely overlooked by the cot ton reporters, and that is the gradual disappearance of trained laborers. Women have almost wholly retired from the fields. Former slaves have died or removed to the towns or alto gether from the country in considera ble numbers. Few can be found who will take the trouble to learn the young as correctly as they did their ;laves, and if they had the desire, the r,odmnan would not observe the in struetions as well. Hence the rising generation will not be such efficient workers as their parents and the crop will be that much shorter. Farmers now complain that their stock are lriven harder, cared for less, and ienec killed quicker than ever before. Planting thus becomes more expen. .ivn. This fact united with the a - tual lessening of the number of la borers make it very improbable whether a crop much exceeding 2, 500,000 bales will ever be produced.
