ASOUTH CAROLINA CONGRESSMAN.
INCIDENTS IN THE CAREER OF CHARLES
W 1HTTT7
. x J X X ia.
Chr.rlcs W. Buttz, member of Congress
from the Second District of South Carolina,
w.is born at Stroudsburj. Monroe County,
in ISMS. His rrandfather, Michael
Robert JJiittz, represented Northampton
County, Pa., for a number of years in the
jiature of that State. When Chailes
V. was two years old his parents removed
to the town now called Buttzville, Warren
Comity, N. J-, where his father, John II.
Ruttz, engaged in the business of milling
and fanning. lie received an academic
education, and studied law with J. G. Ship
niaii at Belvidere, N. J. When the late war
broke out he was the second man in War
ren County General Edward L. Campbell,
r),w of Trenton, N. J., being the first) to
enlist i.i the three months' service. When
that term expired he assisted in raising a
cavalry company for Harlan's Independ
ent Cavalry, afterwards, designated the
Eleventh Pennsylvania Cavalry. .Mr. Buttz
,- accepted the position of second lieutenant.
In lSl!- he was promoted to first lieuten
ant. We find by the official history of the
State of NV.v Jersey and the Rebellion, by
John Y. Foster, published by authority of
the State, that Major luttx has a most ex
cellent military record. In 18o"$ his regi
vwv.t was sent on a scouting expedition from
Sull'olk, Va., to the Hlack water River. The
history referred to states that during this
expedition Lieutenant Ruttz with twenty
five of his men engaged !l)U of the enemy,
and by a dashing charge succeeded in tak
i:vr sixtv-seven of the number prisoners and
capturing a Rocket battery with a good
supply ol ammunition, lne enemy t- ,
liaiidsomoly routed by the Jerseynv.'i. con
victed of members of the Second Georgia
Cavalry and one company of infantry.
Thiitv-two f the prisoners hud severe
v.-ounds in the head, inflicted by the sabres
t.f the assailants, whose loss was only one
killed and three wounded. "While in this
department Lieutenant Buttz was on several
ecasi !is -detailed for service on courts
martial as Judge Advocate, and for a period
f two iu'nths was Pruvst Marshal at Suf
" i'.i'k. When Longstreet besieged that place
Jii' 'iterant Ruttz acted as uil-de-camp to

report to the j
War IVpartment.
LieuU-nant Buttz. upon quitting the
5 tv ice, commenced the practice of law at
Norfolk, where he became prominent in
political movements. He lias received two
brevets one as captain "for gallant and
meritorious conduct in capturing from the
enemy a full Rocket battery," and the other
:is major '"for gaiiant and meritorious ser
vice in front ofS'.ilToik, both dating March
IP,. 1So5."
We learn from the official Congressional
Piroctory, second edition. Forty-fourth
(Vnizre

that Major Buttz was wounded
remaining in the hospital for sonn-
tune, rcv.grnng his position in the army
through the Surgeon General's oiTice on :ic
c a:nt of impaired health in October, looP.
lie was a delegate from Virginia to the
National Republican Convention that met
in Baltimore in ISiJj. He took an active
part in the su port
the restored govern-
ir.'-Mt in Virginia at the time Pierepout was
iiovernnr. After Virginia was pajed in
the Reconstruction act he took an active
part in organizing the Republican party of
that State, leading the bolt in the Republi
can convention that nominated, in 1 St 50.
II. II. Wr-lb for Governor, Major Buttz
snd his friends nominating G. C. Walker
for Governor, who, being supported by the
united Pcmocratic vote, was elected. Major
Ruttz was nominated on the independent
Republican ticket for Congressman-at-large,
but withdrew from the ticket ten days be
fore the election.
In 1870 he removed to Charleston, S.
C..
where
ne
ras elected Solicitor (States
-attorney) for the First Judicial Circuit,
composed of the counties of Charleston and
Orangeburg, in October, 1872, for the term
of four vears.
In 1S74 he was nominated
by the lb:
ublican
(.'on vent ion of the
Second Congressional !;trict
Carolina fr the Forty-Fourth
of South
Congress.
The opposition selected E. W. M. Mackey.
who received the certificate of election.
3Iajor Buttz contested his seat before Con
gress, and on the nineteenth day of July,
1870, Congress turned Mackey out and de
clared the seat vacant. The Republican
convention again unanimously nominated
Major Buttz as their candidate, and at the
election, held November 17, 1870, he was
elected to fill the vacancy in the Forty
fourth Congress, receiving 21JJ85 votes
,-igain.tt l.J,05 for M. P. O'Connor, Demo
erut. At the same election he was re
elected Solicitor of the First Judicial Cir
cuit for four years by 8,000 majority. Not
withstanding the large majority he received,
and the fact that no one contested his seat.
Congress referred his credentials to the
Committee on Elections at the commence
ment of the present seesion. This was ow
ing to the political complications in South
Carolina ; but on the 2:d of January, 1877,
the committee unanimously reported that
he was ertitlod to his seat, and the House
was unanimous in admitting him. His
political enemies in theseasion of the Legis
lature of South Carolina in 1875-G made
charges of official misconduct against him
and caused a committee to be appointed to
investigate them, and upon the report of
lhe committee the House, by more than a
two-thirds vote, completely exonerated him.
And the result of the late election shows
that he is stronger with the people than
ever, as they elected him to fill two import
ant offices at the same time by a majority
of over 8.000 votes, his opponents, both for
Solicitor and Congress, b.ing the strongest
men the Democrats could select.
Major Butz is a modest, unassuming
man, not having as yet made any speeches
in Congress, but he is a hard worker, a wan
cf great energy and self control.
TiiF. number of vessels of war of all the
maritime nations amounted in 187(5, ac
cording to some cCicial statistics lately pub
lished in Germany, to 20:10, of which 209

280,000 men and 15,000 guns; 110 war
vessels, including 56 ircu dadr, were in

Losses by Central.
Referring to losses by the failure of the
Central R. R. the Sotnei set county N. J.
Unionist says : "Widows and those en
trusted with dower funds, besides thers
who bought the stock as a permanent in
vestment, in many instances lose nearly
their all. We hear of one widow who holds
-320,000 in stock, several others 310,000
cacl , others $5,000 and so no down to
1,000. And one of our farmers hereto
fore considered well-to-do, two or three
years ago mortgaged his farm for 010,000
and invested the whole sum in the stock of
the company. Many others who hitherto
have been in comfortable circumstances,
now find themselves terribly crippled in
consequence of this dire calamity. Among
others in this vicinity an Orange widow
loses $17,00 J, and Senator Erelinghuysen
nearly 50,000.

Reading, March 12. The troubles that
have existed for a long period in the coal
regions of this State are being dispelled.
Many of the operators having been relieved
of their financial embarrassments, are start
ing their works, and a change for the bet
ter is occurring generally throughout the
Schuylkill district. Ine Philadelphia and
Reading Railroad Company to-day resumed
operations at many of the coileries worked
in the middle coal fields. Somewhere near
5,000 working men have been given em
ployment in the mines. The operators in
the Lehigh region who have not already
commenced mining contemplate an im
mediate and entire resumption. The coi
leries of the Lehigh and Wiikesbarre Coal
Company and the Delaware and Hudson
Railroad Company are now in operation,
and coal shipments are being carried on
steadily. The leasing of ti e works of the
former company to Mr. Charles Parrish,
the President of the company, will, it is
said, result beneficially to the interests of
the stock-holders, and the admission is
general that the Receivers did a very nice
thing when making the lease to Mr Parrish.
The improvement in the coal trade is al
ready beginning to show its good efieets in
the business interests of the regions. A'.
