Butler False Imprisonment. for New York, Feb. 14. Gen. Beni. F. Butler Was Drnmntlv on hsinrt tv day in the United State3 Circuit Court when the suit of John H. Les ter against him for $10,000 damages for false imprisonment was resumed. The charge is, that Mr. Lester went to Washington from his home in Richmond, Va., in January 1864, and took the oath of allegiance x and was afterwards arrested on the orders of Gen. Butler, then in command of the forces. tGen. Butler moved to dismiss the complaint on the ground that there was a statue which distinctly provided that no suit for damages for imprisonment during; the war of the rebellion, or for any act done under orders of the President of the United States or the Secretary of War, by a military commander shall be main tained except such suits are com menced within two x years from the expiration of such sentence or im prisonment i He contended ) that more than that time had elapsed be tween Mr. Lester's imprisonment and the commencement of the suit. Counsel for the complainant said that the General was wrong on his law and his facts. Mr. John E. Devlin for Gen. Butler, argued that the mili tary commissioner, who tried and sentenced Mr. Lester to ten years im prisonment, were responsible for their action, and that Gen. Butler had nothing to do with the case be yond designating the prison: where Mr. Lester was taken to, and this he was compelled to do by law. The sentence of the military commission er was that John Lester, being . con-, victed shall therefore be sentenced to imprisonment for ten years, and shall also wear a ball and chain during such imprisonment at' such place as the Major General in command shall designate. Judge Coxe denied the motion to dismiss the complaint at the present time. Overtures Jflade the Strikers; Jersey City, N. Y., Feb. 14. At some of the steamship piers this morning overtures were made to the old Longshoremen to resume work at i5 or on a basis of 30 cents an hour for day work and 45 cents for over time. The men refused and left the docks, r The striking coal handlers and freight handlers are siding with the-Longshoremen, and say that they will not return to work until a uni form Tate of wages is agreed upon in New - York, Brooklyn and Jersey City. Chief Murphy, of the Jersey City police, said this morning that none of the special policemen had been relieved from duty and they would not be until there was a more definite settlement of the strike than at present. The strikers seem to be well supplied with money, but are careful how they expend it keeping away from saloons and discussing the situation on the streets. Secretary JTIanningr Ucsigns.

Florists are over trying to intro duce something novel in the way of new and attractive flowers. This winter they have imported a variety of rose from New York known as "Tho Bride." It has figured fre quently throughout the season at fashionable receptions and weddings, and bids fair to become as much a part of bridal adornment as fbe white veil and orange blossoms. It figured conspicuously at the Samuel-Niecolis wedding on Thursday, the bride car rying a bouquet composed entirely of this flower. It is a thing of beauty, much prized by all young ladies con templating a fashionable marriage, and retails at the modest price of $5 per dozen. It is very large and beau tiful, and docs not bloom Jn the spring, It bcin a forced plant of win ter growth. While not unlike the Cook rose, it differs from It in being ofa more creamy white. Its distinc tive feature lyinjr In the outside pet als, which are tinged on tho upper half with a delicate shade of pink. Though used largely for bridal ban quets, there Is quite a demand for it by the escorts of fair theatre-goers. The oily succ2ssful propagator Is said to be a gardener of Summit,N. J.
