V BUTLER,
Thtohn Abbot! . "Il4t Brlter Let Hvrma
Alonc,
la an Interview between' a correspondent and
Beaeral Butter, In' Washington, the convcrsa
i ( lurscd to the "late onpleasantnces" between
tarafrae end Abbott. Bald Butler:
Abbott had better let Spraguw alone. If he
jpoes Sprague Is a coward, he will find him
self very much mistaken. Sprague has plenty
f pluck. In fact, yon know, It wm Sprague s
flack that canned his quarrel with Burnsidc.
pragae wanted him to make an attack on the
.enemy, Which Bnrnside refused, and It was that
which made Sprague so much vexed. Sprague
will fight. There Is no doubt about that. And
ke knows what he is about, too.
Correspondent Then you are not one of those
who believe he Is crazy f
Butler Crnzy 1 Bless you, no. lie knows
Tery well what he Is about. He want to orga
nic a new party and place himself at the head
,af the worklnirmen of the country. That's what
be Is after. He Is earnest, too, In what he says;
and believes It all. All reformers have been set
down as crazy, and Sprague cannot expect to
.escape that charge any more than those who
have cone before him.
Correspondent Well, but don t you think
erne of his speeches are cnrlonsly put together?
Butler Oh, of course they are. Sprague Is
not a speaker. He hasn't been accustomed to
Making speeches, and it would bother almost
nr man at first to get up in the Senate of the
United States to make speeches. Ho experi
ences the natural embarrassments of all novices
on such occasions. That in the explanation, I
take it. '
Hoping to draw him out on Grant, I said
something about the havoc the cares of office
tad already made with the mens et corpus of the
little President. ,
Butler Grant has mado Just this mistake he
tnpposcd that one man could run this Govern
ment. He started with the notion that ho could
ret alone without advising with any one. Like
ill men who have had that notion before, ho
inds that it cannot be done, and the consequence,
will be that he will fall into the hands of somc
w xnhn -win mn the Government for hiin.
This was about as much as I could get out of
klm on the Grant question, and therefore I pro
ceeded to another matter.
Correspondent What are your views. Gene
ral, of the present position of the Alabama
4-lahns ? Tlus question seemed to please him
better than any that I had asked before. Lay
ing back in his chair, and running his hand
over his bold head and massive brow in rapid
tracceesion, he answered:
"The question pending between this country
and Great Britain Known as the Alabama claims,
but which involves in fact the conduct of the
English Government during the Rebellion, docs
not seem to me to be in a very satisfactory con
dition for settlement."
SUE MUNDY.
An Eventful IHtnrv-The Cnreer of a Noted
i't'inalc tJucrulu.
From the Detroit Poxt.
Nearly every pleasant day pedestrians on our
principal avenues rass a dark-eyed brunette, of
medium size, a plump figure, and richly dressed.
In the early spring of 1801 Sue Klteradgea
lovely girl, just returned from boarding-school,
lived upon her father's plantation in one of the
roral district of Kentucky, that hung in a
balance, uncertain whether to risk her fute with
the new "Confederacy," or hang back. Sue was
seventeen, a frequent visitor at the adjoining
plantation of Mr. Mundy, n old gentleman
whose wife and eon, a young man, composed a
happy family. .
One day a company of LnKin cavalry rode
down upon the place, plundered the premises,
carried off the valuables, burned the residence,
And finally slaughtered the parents, who were
defending their own fireside, laying waste the
country in their track, and leaving young Mundy
and Hue orpnans inaeea. iuuhk rauuuj n naui.
last aroused, and while being carried off a pri
soner no word escaped his lips but "Sue. W hen
asked his name, he replied "Sue," probably the
effects of a disordered brain. His linen being
examined, the Indelible name of "Mundy" was
found, and ever after he was known as "Sue
Mundy," the constant terror of Union citizens
and soldiers in that section.
After being released on parole, he immediately
Teturned and interred the charred remains of
his own parents, as well as the body of Mr. K.
Taking a solemn and fearful oath of vengeance,
and accompanied by Sue, who was now without
home or friend's in this wide world, he started
for a neighboring camp of bushwhackers or
guerillas, where he was received with open
arms, and was soon promoted to the office of
commander of the force, while Sue, disguised and
passing by the name of "Kit" an abbreviation
of Klteradgo proved invaluable as a spy. a
fearless rider, and of undoubted bravery. Kit,
after serving nearly two years as spy and
general planner for the baud, found her health
falling. Disguised, and armed with the highest
testimonials, she succeeded in securing a position
on the staff of General Cleburne, the hardest
fighting Irishmen In the Rebel army.
This position she held, doing her duty like a
man, until the battle of Atlanta, July 13, 1804,
in which Pat. Cleburne was killed. Returning
to her youthful hero and his band, she again
revelled in the carnival of blood, and though her
evil spirit was willing, the flesh was weak, and
it it m oo-ftln transferred to duty at Anderson-
yllle. Prisoners who have shared the hospitality
of that celebrated camp will perhaps remember
a short, stout, and muscular lieutenant, with
flashing black eyes, a face smooth as a maiden's,
and cruel as though a fiend incarnate lurked
within.: This was Sue Klteradgo, the amia
ble young i boarding-school miss, the
cheerful companion, the once wealthy
heiress, the beautiful maiden and firm
friend of young Mundy, whose life to her was
dearer than her own. Sue Mundy and a part of
his band were captured and tried by court
martial. Kit was present during the whole trial,
and used her greatest influence, but of no avail.
Sue Mundy was convicted and hung at Louis
ville, Ky., in March, 1805. The Wowing hair
till hnng about his shoulders, and when his
youthful corpse was taken down and laid in his
narrow bed, the bleeding and broken heart of
Sne Kiteradge was buried with it; and now, a
wanderer on the face of the earth, homeless and
friendless, she lives without hope of heaven or
mercy, forsaken and dishonored, and east away.

A OlID PIOII ATTORN1!T-OKHrat. BBSWSTrR.
We have received and give place to .the following
eoramunlcatlon:
T the Editor f The Evening Trletrraph.
Home papers to-day publish an article from the
New York Sun, In which It Is said t hut Mr. John
Russell Young fleeced me of flow. This Is wholly
untrue. Never, directly or indirectly, dJd I loan
money to that gentleman or any one on bis account,
or at his request or Instance.
Such is my respect for him and his abilities that I
would be happy at any time to give htm any help If
he required it. Mr. John D. Stockton, a friend, for
whom I have a great regard, did twice or three tlmwi
during the past six months borrow from three hun
dred to one thousand dollars of me, but has always
promptly repaid It within a few days, and he has not
owed me for a Innfr time.
He always borrowed on his own acconnt, and not
on account of any other. This I would not now
mention, but he states so himself in his paper to-dav,
and the article In the Sun asserts that I had been
fleeced by Mr. Young for the Morning Pout
I will conclude by saying that my loans were those
of friendship: and I was then too ela-l, as I will avain
be too glad, thns to help a worthy, upright young
gentleman In the honest pursuit of an honest living.
I am respectfully,
Bknjawn It. Brbwster.

The Case ol'John Kuaeell Young.
editorial from the X 1. Sun of to-day.
We had the honor, last evening, of receiving
official Information that Mr. John Russell Young,
managing editor of the Tribune, and chief proprietor
of the .Woriiinff Pot and Star of Philadelphia, has
seen lit to commence a libel suit against us. The
alleged libel consists In the publication, with some
explanatory comments, of sundry letters of Mr.
Y ung'g furnished for that purpose by those who can
hect certify to their authenticity. In these docu
ments the principles and methods adopted by their
writer in the management of his three papers are
unreservedly set forth. He fancies he has Buffered
Si 00,0110 damages. We presumo that when he gets
it he will be happier than he is at present
The reasons for exposing these transactions of
Mr. Young appear to lie very clear and very conclu
sive. He has for some years occupied a leading
place in the control of one of the most Important
and influential journals of the country. That Jour
nal owes the position which it holds in the publlo
esteem to the honesty and conscientiousness with
which It has been conducted. Its chief editor and Its
principal proprietors are upright men, abominating
duplicity, and saying frankly what they think and
what they mean. But in selecting Mr. Young for
his responsible office they have put themselves Into
the hands of one who is, according to the evidence
of his own letters, an unscrupulous Intriguer, who
has used his great power to obtain money for strug
gling pspere in Philadelphia from timid politicians,
premising them iu return the support of
the Tribune, and who has dishonorably
cenveyed the news of the Associated
Press from the Tribune oftlce to his Philadelphia
partners. In this case he has not broken any statute
law ; he has promised nothing more than he was able
to perform ; lie is not guilty 01 any onenso 01 wmeu
tne criminal cone tuKes cognizance. iuo vmy
metkod of reaching, checking, and punishing his
wmng-doihg is to bring it to the bar of public
opinion; to expose it; to hold It up as it is. His
dei ds have been committed under the cover of the
respectability and good inlluence of the press, and it
was for the press to take action against them. This
is what we have done, and, under similar circum
stances, we should not full to do It again. In making
the exposure, it seemed necessary to introduce de
tails not immediately connected with the main
points, but which were useful to corroborate them
ard shed light upon their nature.
It is a mistake, we think, to assert, with the Even
hta 1'ott, that such an exposure as this inflicts a per
manent stain upon the reputation of the press in
general. The standing of newspapers depends upon
the ahilitv, independence, and honesty of their con
ductors; and thut standing cannot be seriously com
promised by the discovery that an unworthy person,
wearing a semblance that tioes not belong to him,
has wormed himself into tho management of
one of the great Journals. The Pont would
still enjoy that degree of conlldense which
such men as Mr. Bryant, Mr. Godwin, and
Mr. Nordhoff have gained for it, even if some other
person connected with it should prove guilty of pros
tituting its influence to base ends of his own. In the
same manner, the Tribune will retain jhe high posi
tion due to the talents, learning, and Integrity of Mr.
Greeley, Mr. Ripley, Mr. Snialley, and their honora
ble though less conspicuous associates, notwithstand
ing the exposure of Mr. Young's dishonesty and in
triune. There is nothing ho good and wholesome as
truth, and no better cure ban been discovered for
any moral malady tnan to nriug it into me liguu

WILL CURE
corrsuniPTicu,
LIVER COMPLAINT,
AND DlTSPErsZA,
If taken according to the directions. They are
all three to be taken at the same time. They '
cleanse the stomach, relax the liver, and put It
to work; then the appetite becomes good; the
food digests and makes good blood; the patient
begins to grow in flesh; the diseased matter
ripens In the lungs, and the pationt outgrows ,
tho disease and gets well. This Is the only way
to cure Consumption.
To these tliree medicines Dr. J. U. SCIIENCK
of Philadelphia, owes his . ' ' "
UNRIVALLED SUCCESS
In the treatment of Tulmonary Consumption.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matter
in the lungs, nature throws it off by an easy ex
pectoration, for When tho nhleinn
r n "vv !
ripe, a slight cough will throw it off, and the
.-...at a. 1. a . '
jiuueui, nas reel, ana the lungs begin to heal.
u"8. seaweed Tonic and Mandrake
Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup and food
will make good blood. 1
SCHENCK'S
MANDRAKE PILLS
Act upon the liver, removing all obstructions
relax the ducts of the gall bladder, the bile starts
freely, and the liver is soon relieved; the stools
will show what the pills can do; nothing has
ever been Invented except calomel (a deadly
poison which is very dangerous to use nnless
with great care) that will unlock the gall bladder
and start the secretion of the liver like Schenck's.
Mandrake Fills.
IJrer Complaint is one of the most
Prominent aue of Con
sumption. SCHENCK'S
SEAWEED TONIC
Is a gentle stimulant and alterative, and the
alkali In the seaweed, which tills preparation is
made of, assists the stomach to throw out the
gastric juice to dissolve the food with the Pul
monic Syrup, and it Is made Into good blood
without fermentation or souring the stomach.
THE GREAT REASON
Why physicians do not cure Consumption is,
they try to do too much; they give medicines to
stop the cough, to stop chills, to stop nigh
sweats, beetle fever, nnd by so doing they de
range the whole digestive powers, locking up the
secretions, and eventually the patient sinks and
dies.
Dr. SCIIENCK, In his treatment, does not try
to stop a cough, night sweats, chills, or fever. ,
Remove the cause, and they will all stop of their
own accord. No cue can be cured of Consump- t
tion, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Catarrh, Can-.,
ker, Ulcerated Throat, unless the liver aud
stomach are made healthy.
If a person has consumption, of course the
lungs are In some way diseased either tubercles,
abscesses, bronchial irritation, pleural adhesion,
or the lungs are a mass of inflammation and fast
decaying. In such cases what must be done ? It
is not only the lung that are wasting, but it is
the whole body. The stomach and liver have
lost thoir power to make blood out of food. Now
the only chance is to take Dr. SCHENCK'S
three medicines, . which will bring up tone to
the stomach, the patient will want food, it will
digest easily and make good blood; then the
patient begins to gain in flouh, and as soon as the
body begins to grow, the lungs commence to heal
up, and the pationt gets fleshy and well. This
is the only way to cure Consumption. ,
WHEN THERE IS NO LUNG DISEASE.
And only IJTer Complaint nnd
lyepeptila, Selienck'a Neaweed -Tonic
and Mandrake Pills
are sufficient, -without
the Pulmonic Syrup.
Take the IMnndrahePill freely in
all bilious) cases, us they are
PERFECTLY HARMLESS.
Dr. SCENCK, w ho has enjoyed uninterrupted
health, was wasted away to a mere skeleton, in.
the very last stage of Pulmonary Consumption,
his physicians having pronounced his case hope
less, and abandoned him to his fate. He was
cured by the aforesaid medicines, and since bis
recovery many thousands similarly aflllcted have
used Dr. Schenck's preparations with the same
remarkable success. Full directions accompany
each, making it not absolutely necessary to per
sonally see Dr. Schcnck, unless patients wlsdj
