RODMAN (uu.
UNUSUAJA.LY CANDID
FERNANDO WOOD, the other day, in
Congress,' was desirous of baring a cum
mitteee appointed to investigate• some
sharp transactions of Gen. BEN BUTLER.
The General, having heard of FERNAN
DO'S proceedings wrote to a friend of
his in Washington, when he made the
following candid, but one xliected admis
sion:
"7 will rely on your friendship always I ; ote
in favor of having any official act ot none inves
tigated; such in; estigal ions all ~hole tiostakes,
btund.ers, and failures of judgment innumerable,
and for these I must stiffer; hut I fear nothing
else. 1 should even he w'illiug for them to be in
vestigated by Feasevrn WOOO, were It not for
the maxim, set a thief catch a thief "
This is really creditable to "Picka
yllne BUTLER;" how much better it is to
candidly admit what -every one knows,
than to attempt to brazen it nut us is
the custom with the generality of Abo
lition office-holders. BEN and his in
teresting hrnther, when they were in
New Orleans, turned many en honest
penny; their earnings there tire estimated
at from one million up to an indefinite
sum. REVERDT JOHNSON undertook to. l,
investigate how this wealth was so sud
denly accumulated; but BEN Was too
sharp for him. He had covered his
tracks too well for the obtuse vision of
the Maryland attorney. But FERN AN DO
WOOD i 3 a man after BUTLER'S own
heart ; he understands trap as well
any other man," and BUTLER knows it ;
hence his opposition to the New York
sharps being put upon any committee
'which Congress may appoint to inves
tigate his carryings on. BUTLER, like
many other "loyal men" has not ree
lected to improve his opportunity; he has
followed the war to some purpose, anal
why not? When Senators and Congress
men are engaged in big contracts, and
hire out their services at imm4mse re
munerations, why should not BEN BUT
LER lay Up something to compemate
him for his intense "loyalty" to Aboli
tionism. When in the Charleston Con
vention he and Woon did not pull to
gether, BUTLER being' in with the la—
slavery men, while Woon was the
friend of DOUGLAS. It was there where
BUTLER first hAli an opportunity of
measuring WOQD's tact and calibre;

mill, in Wheeling, at which they ground
grain, purchase by them in ()i l l°, and

Amendments of the Constitution.
We have already alluded to the prop-
ositions pending in the Senate with re
gaol to an amendnient of the Constitn- I
lion so as to prohibit slavery throughout I
the United States, and have given at some
length our reasons for questioning the
timeliness of such a discussion, at a pert
oil when ten States, destined to be •if
fe(teil by that amendment, are not ['lire
sented at all in either branch of Congress,
and when the State of Virgidia is non
natty represented to only a single Sena
tor On this point it seems to us that
the true rule of duty, in a republiean
country, and under a republican Consti
lotion, is propounded by the New York
