The glorious news of 'General Hut ler having obtained his scat, in Con grcss readied us on last Monday. The above fact was no doubt received by every citizen of this State with tho greatest joy, und cnthusiam. It would bo a waste of time for us to attempt to add anything more to the above, as General Butler is so well known in the South as a staunch Democrat and a pure and refined gentleman, that, wo can only wish him a long life and abundant success in his new position, A Queer Rumor from Washington. A special dispatch to the Journal of Comn>i rer says : New York, December (?.? The Post's Washington special says: "Both Senators Butler and Patterson arc opposed to the nppointimmt of Judge Noithrop to bo United States Attorney for South Carolina and, will oppose his confirmation if his ham 1 ia again sent to the Semite. liut'cr is confident that a majority of the Demo crats in the Senate will vote with him in favor of rejecting Northropj if the President sends in his name." Tho Message Abroad. "We give below commc nts upon the President's Message by throe of the leading L< ndon newspapers. The Daily A'cjck, commenting on President Hayes's Message, says: "Tho mess age deals principally with questions of the pacification of the country a nd the resumption of specie payments, and on both these subjects the Presi dent expresses himself with good sense and good feeling." 1 i ^i^tt? iu2tpICaU'0"' His message has no uncertain sound on llic subject ol currency legisla tion." ?The Daily Tchyraph says: "Not withstanding the discouragements With which President Hayes has been nut, the prudent, firm positi in he has assumed in his message,ensures him the support of the wisest and best portion of.his countrymen.1' The Journaloj'Ootnmcrct oflhcord Fays : "Solicit! r W'.

On Friday night last, while he was out paying a visit, an escaped convict, from the penitentiary entered his room d< ii berately fcul down, pulled oil'his old shots, put on the Soii? itor's new boots, shouldered Ids trunk and left.

"It is u plain and out spoken document, w-ich will coin mend itself to all fair-minded men, whether they agree with all its utter ances 01 n it. "Mr. Hayes' defence of his'South ern Policy' and the reasons he urges 1 i' r withdrawing the troops from the States of Louisiana and South Caro lina, carry with thorn the weight of conviction. Events have proven the justice and wisdom ol this policy. As ho says in his message, 'm the States named there is no longer danger to lifo or prope rt y; every right of every citi7.cn is safe.' "In reference to the resumption of spec ic i tsymt ills the President's vie \vs are in ucc rd with tho-so which have ulrctidy 1h mi expn sed. We did no! advocate the passage ol the llc3ump tion Act, but. it ha.- been passed, and the country having accepted it as finai, has been gradually gravitating lowanlsii.

In regard to tho ronioncti/.a tion ol silver IM r. 1 lay c's speaks in no uncertain tone.-.

"Civil service reform is dwelt upon with great earnestness, .but in the lace of all the utterances ofthe past the people of the United States have ecofjed to have much faith in pro fessions of civil sei vice reform. '?Upon the whole the message may be pronounced to bo a statesmanlike document, sum thing better than the twaddle of Grant and his Cahinent, und we commend it to a careful per stmi." We .m muxica i i.d.] Popi.au Towxsiiip. Novt mber 29th 1877. Mr. Krfiioi, Li t me again allude to the "Fair" question, and to the article of "P. 15, 1 iir?clor-." (President ol Board of Directors) in your issue of N ivomber 2 lib. I now stale what [ought to have stated in my last article, viz : What I wrote concerning tho Pair, was from the best information tha i I could gain. So far a- I was able to learn, there was dissatisfaction mini tested und expressed by persons from thi- pari of ibe county. Is there any signification in this sentence? "j talked with Mr. Win. Snider, Mrs. Snider and .Mr. Baxter, the Masb.r ol" W. ('. Crange, und they serin tl to reasonably satis fied." I thank P. 11. 1). for his kind advice, and I a;me him that I shall follow it, ami profit by it. My statement in my la.-t article, "i am hot a member of W, C. Grange," was misinterpreted by P. B. D. I did not suppose? for ono moment tout that statement would make the impression that I am not a Granger, I am a member of one of j the mo ', ii not tho most nourishing ! Granges in Oraugcburg County. No i?:;(? i - ine delighted than I, to know that, the cba< j'ci brought j against the Mangers are not truo 1 can not SCO how the report, that entries were made on Wednesday *fec, could have been started and am B?r ry that 1 was led to believe it, since there is no truth in it. P. Ii. D. is mistaken in thinking that I profess to represent W. C. Grange. I stated most positively that 1 linvo no connection with that t i range. There irVo some other points in 1*. ! I). D's article which i might notice, but I do not deem it necessary. I might comment on "one very heavy exhibition," which the ?. Grange lost; who knows but that it whs a wagon load of potatoes ? Again, why attempt to make it ap pear as if I were try ing to array W. C. Grange against O. Grange? The; point at issue is not between the two Granges. Again, why sav that tho order ought to frown down upon any one intermeddling, assuming the g ouud, j that all the Grangers who staid at i homo, will fully endorse, tho course of the Directors, and are fully satisfied, when their representatives, only ''sccmctl (o be reasonably satisfied" (^italics mine.') If the Directors were ignorant of the dissatisfaction existing on the part of many of those who made cut ries, let them now be thank fill that it has been brought to th >ir notice, and that, th jy have had an upportttuity of showing that the dis satisfaction was (perfectly ?) ground less. 1 repent that I am glad to know that no entries were penn?tic I on Wednesday. Lielicving that I. h:i vc said enough on this subject; ami that so far as I am concerned, it i.- finally dispose I of, I subscribe myself, j. ours txe., Nrrr Sep. [COM Ml NK' ATM).] "Up a Gum.'
