Gen. Butler. A gentleman in this city, of the highest character, who served with Gen. Butler as a Committeeman in the Charleston Democratic Convention, says, in a discussion which once occurred in the Convention, Mr. Smith, of California, son of Ex-Governor Smith, of Virginia, denounced Gen. Butler personally in the quest unmeasured terms, winding up by pronouncing him "a d — d coward," and that Butler turned very pale and quailed like a whipped hound beneath the anger of his adversary, not daring by word, look or action to resent it. It is suggested that if Mr. Smith were in Virginia, it might be well to send him down to Hampton, to look after the quandam committeeman from Massachusetts.

Atrocities of the enemy in Elizabeth City county.further outrages at Hampton.one of Lincoln's Officers shot. We find the following particulars of the recent outrages perpetrated at Hampton and other portions of Elizabeth City county, in additiHampton and other portions of Elizabeth City county, in addition to what has already been published, in the Norfolk Herald of yesterday: Mr. Frederick Jett, formerly of Elizabeth City, left Williamsburg a few days ago, where he had just moved with his family to avoid the vandals at Fort Monroe, and came people, and the enemy made his raid upon Newport News by water. There are only four of its inhabitants remaining in Hampton, who are prevented by chronic diseases and other unavoidable causes of detention from leaving it in the entire possessiohich Mellon denied. A few days, however, satisfactorily convicted him of the charge; for when the Yankee troops entered Hampton, Mr. Cooper's was the first house they broke into, and the one worst served, as they seemed to pay particular attention

Further outrages at Hampton. When the vandals from the North occupied Hampton, an officer with a squad of men went to the store of Mr. P. Lattimer, and demanded possession. Mr. Lattimer replied that he had purchased and paid for his stock of goods, and the officer might have them at their valuation. The officer said he would have the goods and store and not pay a cent for them, and drawing his sword slapped Lattimer with it on the face. Lattimer then drew a revolver and fired it, when Hampton, an officer with a squad of men went to the store of Mr. P. Lattimer, and demanded possession. Mr. Lattimer replied that he had purchased and paid for his stock of goods, and the officer might have them at their valuation. The officer said he would have the goods and store and not pay a cent for them, and drawing his sword slapped Lattimer with it on the face.

He has met a dog's death in a dog's cause. Mr. W. C. Marrow, of Hampton, was also treated in a most shameful and indecent manner. He was captured in the town, having his uniform on, st

The outrages at Hampton and Alexandria. We have never heard in civilized warfare of such outrages as those perpetrated at Hampton and Alexandria. We are well aware that, in European battles, after a desperate fight and the taking of a city by storm, defenceless women have been the victims of a fate worse than death, but we vHampton and Alexandria. We are well aware that, in European battles, after a desperate fight and the taking of a city by storm, defenceless women have been the victims of a fate worse than death, but we venture to say that no example can be found of a people going to war and deliberately preaching in advance such unspeakable brutality, and actually exercising it upon the inhabitants of peaceable and unresisting communities. With the exception of the Sepoys, and the cruelties inflicted by the Druses upon the Syrian Christians, we do not remember to have heard of such a scene of horror as that at Hampton. Every one knows what a shout of execration these same people raised against the British General at New Orleans, on the strength of a report that before the battle he gave out as a watchword "Beauty and Booty"--a report which he indignantly denied, and yet t
