706 - L Nov. 8; ed: 2/2 - The presence of the much-hated Butler in New
York city with 10,000 troops will influence Rebel refugees and "Copper-

"If it means riot, we trust Belmont, Barlow and Marbel, of the World
fraternity, will have a good taste of the old beast Butler before he
returns to super intend his Dutch Gap canal and assist in the taking of
Richmond." - (6)
