Political view of General Butler's resignation. --A Philadelphia paper says: "This is significant, as showing the bitterness of feeling which is growing up between the Radicals and the Conservatives at Washington. General Butler tendered his resignation some time since, or as soon as he heard that Lieutenant-General Grant was about to give him a scoring in his official report. The matter was laid over, and nothing more was said about it until a few days since, when General Butler was called to Washington for a conference with the President. Sequel: General Butler was not satisfiGeneral Butler was not satisfied; the conference was not a happy one to him. He looked up his old resignation, and had it accepted before the time came when its acceptance might appear creditable to him. Consequence: General Butlep his old resignation, and had it accepted before the time came when its acceptance might appear creditable to him.

The resolution offered by Mr. Hurst, of Norfolk, with regard to the assumed appointment of General Butler to the command in Virginia, will, of course, be seized upon by certain Northern journals and perverted into a proof of continued disaffection on the part of the Southern people. We deem it proper, therefore, to state that Mr. Hurst was a Union man throughout the war, and remained in Norfolk during its occupation by the Federal army. He was in no sort a "rebel, " but a staunch loyal man. We hope, therefore, this sin will not be placed to the account of the rebels. These latter have already quite as many of their own as they can bear. They have no fancy for bearing those of the party which opposed them, and did all they could to destroy them. They fought General Buller during the war in the field; they wish no war with him individually in time of peace. This is a family quarrel, with which they have nothing to do.

n violation of the Constitution of the United States. House bill incorporating the Catawba Coal Mining and Iron Works was passed. Mr. Hancock, of Chesterfield, offered a resolution of inquiry relative to establishing by law certain rules and regulations for the government of negroes actually engaged in agricultural labors. Mr. Straughn, of Northumberland, moved to take up the resolution offered by Mr. Herst, of Norfolk, and laid on the table the previous day, relative to General B. F. Butler. He desired to offer a substitute, declaring that this House is both willing and anxious to pursue such a conciliatory course towards the Federal authorities, not inconsistent with the rights and the honor of the State, as will not retard the immediate restoration of the relations between the State and Federal Governments which existed before the war, and that any motion or resolution inconsistent therewith should not be made or offered; and if made or offered, will meet with the dis

cause they believe the Government was determined to leave the doors open for cholera. That Perfect reversed the whole order of government here. For a thousand years, the people had been taught to look upon power as a silent monster, meditating evil to them. The new Perfect issued a bulletin, morning and evening each day, informing them exactly what he thought and what he did to keep off the dreaded enemy. In a week they understood each other, and Messina was as quiet as New Orleans under Butler. Six weeks later the Perfect died, and all Messina mourned for Lorenzo Valerio as a kind and provident father. I mention this as one proof of the benefits resulting from the frank conduct of the Italian Government. But to return to the route which the cholera pursued in reaching Naples. It traveled from Ancona through a series of villages scattered across Apulia and through the mountain range behind Naples, and fell upon a village called San Teduccio, on the 1st of October.--This vil
