There was groat inxoitement iu the House, to day, arising from a speech of Browu, of fCauiuuky, ou tbe Civil Bights Bill, iu which he spoke of But? ler, of Massachusetts, in the following terms; 14What should be said if tbe no ousatioa of tbe Southern people should come from one who is outlawed iu bis own home from respectable society; whose uatoe.is synonymous with false? hood; who.is the champiou, and has been on ull occasions, of fraud; who is the apologist of thieves; who is such prodigy of vice and moanneBB, that to describe him, imagination would sicken und invective would exhaust it? self. In Scotland, years ago, there was a tnau whose trade was murder, nud ho earned bis livelihood by selling the bodies of his victims for gold. He liukod his name to his crime, aud to? day throughout tbe world it is known us Burking." Tbe Speaker?Does tbe Chair understand the gentleman to be referring in this language to a member of tho House? Mr. Brown?No, sir; I am desoribing an individual who in m my mind's eye. Tbe Speaker?The Chair understood the gsntlemau to refer to a member of tbe House. Mr. Brown?No, sir; I call no names. This man's name was linked to his crime, aud to-day throughout the world it is kuowu as Burking. If I was to desire ' to express all that was pusillanimous in war, inhuman iu peace, forbidden iu morals and infamous in politics, I should call it Butleriziug. For this violation of parliamentary order, a revolution of oensuro was passed upon Browu, aft.-r a very exciting debate and was administered by the Speaker. The Civil. Bights Bill then went over till to morrow. The House is to meet at 10 o'clock.

He knew Mr. Lin? coln wsnted to help tbe Juarez Go? vernment iu an underhand way, and at Lincoln's imttunco be interviewed Grant, who recommended furnishing arms to the Mexicans. Wallace wont to Mexioo und couferred with the au? thorities, wbo bad nothing left but bows and arrows, while Bazatne bad overrun the whole country with his tinoly-t-qnipprd armies. Qen. Carvu jal oame back with Geu. Wallace to Washington to perfeot tbe arrange? ments, and tbe Government furnished enough Eufield and SpringQeld rifles to arm seven Meiioan armies, wbo subsequently demolished Maximilian's empire. This is q.'ito a remarkable story. Mr. Redpath says: "This great triumph baa never beeu claimed for Grant. He Ins always resolutely re? fused to let it be known." Perhaps tbe next thing we bear will be that Grant is secretly arming the Cubans in their struggle against Spain. TH^ STATE LBOI?LATURB. A (?VCD ay, Ff i1 au ah y 4, 1875.
