Declaration' of ndeprid'ehce.Jhas been
received, and 1 regret to say that I shall
not be able to accept the invitation.
ine extra session of Consrress will
probably be extended beyond the time
for your celebration, and mv time and
attention will consequently be engross
ed by my public duties at Washington.
I beg to assure you and the other gen
tlemen of the committee of my pro-
iounu appreciation or tne great honor
you nave none me and to convey you
ray manra and gratitude ior it.
If any occasion could evoke the pa-
iriotic nres oi our nearts, tnis is cer
tainly the one, and in these days of un
certainty and anxiety ior tne future of
republican institutions in America, it
is wen to recall, periodically, the inci
dents of our "first declaration" and fa
miliarize the minds of our people with
its high purposes.
Accept for yourself assurances of mv
highest esteem and regard and believe
me to be, most truly, -

As stated in yesterdays issue of The
Observer, Gen. Butler arrived irr the
city day before yesterday afternoon,
and remained ! over' one-day to see his
sons, expecting also to be joined by Gen.
xiampum yesterday atternoon. Tjie
Hornets' Nest Riflemen, as soon as they
heard that the two Senators were to he
in Charlotte, made arrangements to es
cort Gen. Butler to the denot and to nav
their respects to Gen. Hampton.
-'Accordingly they assembled in the
afternoon in front of the Central Hotel
where a crowd had already gathered in
anticipation of a speech from the for
mer. He was loudlv called for and
stepping forward to the curb stone ex-
cuseu mmseir oy tnansmg tne company
for the honor shown him, and asked
them to, reserve , their palls fill Governor

The lineof 'escort was then formed

guest he had been, since his arrival in
the city,., and. was followed bv, nuite- a

said that he had been in, the babit of
putting' Gen. Butler forwafdix) do the
talking as he had put him forward to
do the fighting during the war, and that
ne nau snown tnat ne was no. less suc
cessful as a' talker? than a fighter, and it
was hia intention to put the Senator in
fox the talking on this JOcbasion,but he
could not repress a desire to thank the
citizens of Charlotte for their kind ex
pressions towards himself. He remem
bered with gratitude that the handsome
company which stood on his rttht was
the same which had escorted him to the
m i f i ' . i a i i i a i
capuai or nis state wnen ne went xnere
to take his seat as Governor, and he
was no less mindful of the sympathy
and regard which the .people of North
caronna nad shown him during the
past year and formerly in the difficult
and troublesome v times in his State.
His experience during the war was that
wherever placed, the tar-heels could al
ways be. relied on. He hoped to see
the Hornets' Nest Riflemen again in
Columbia on the 10th of May.
"1 am going to Washington, said he.
"to represent my people in the national
council. ' I trust that while I shall never
forget that I am a Southern man, I shall
always recollect that I am an American
Senator ; that I shall be able to subor
dinate a partisan spirit to the bringing
about of that reconciliation which we
all so ardently desire and need. Since
I first laid aside my sword I have striven
for peace between the lately contending;
sections of the Union, and I believed
then as I believe now that such a state
of feeling will bring prosperity and
happiness to our land."
The speech Avas interrupted by ap
plause, and at its close Gen. Butler was
again called on, and responded brieny
by saying that he had succeeded on this
occasion in putting Gen. Hampton for-,
ward, and he had said all that could
have been
oeen appropriately said ou the oc-

, a: k ChaagethM to Blessing. .
There la' no more' remarkable feature, In the
proeress of science, and no creater ehance in anr
.professional practice, tnan is illustrated -by the
contrast oi tne medical system or ro-aay , ana xnmy
years ago. Then all medicines were copious in
Quantity, and nauseous to the taste. To take them
was a trial to adults, and an overwhelming horror
ro ine young, how most doses are smau, ana con
centrated, and free from offensive flavor.
Until recently however, one of the most valuable
and efficient of remedies was detestable to nearly
ail for whom it was prescribed. Cod Liver OIL the
only cure for wasting decline of vital energy, and
certain means of renewing healthy tissue, disgust
ed those to whom It should have done most good.
Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil with the flypo-
pnospnuss oi Lima ana oaa removes uus only
objection. Its flavor Is reafly pleasant, its nourish
ing power malveloas, and there is no finer nerve
and brain tonic In the world.
