Unpleasant for Ben Butler. Noy. 18.—Since Butler’s election as governer of Mas- sachusetts, a great deal has been said in the papers about Butler’s execution of Mumford at New Or- leans, in 1862, for hauling down the American flag, which floated over the mint in that city. The fact that Jeff Davis preclaimed Butler an out- lished and commented upon. It seems that the story as told is not entirely correct. Major-General Confederate furnishes the following statement with regard to the affair. The circumstances connected with the executior of young Mumford are given by New Orleans people as fol- lows: ‘‘Pending negotiations be- army mander of the Federal fleet for the surrender‘ot New Orleans a flag ot truce being displayed at the time, a small party landed from the gunboat lying at anchor a short distance from the toot of Esplanade street, two blocks from the river, hauled down the Confederate flag flying from the ing, run up the stars and stripes and returned to the gunboat. A_ small party of citizens, and it is said that the youth Mumford not one them, regarded the act as without authority and in violation of the was | truce, repaired to the mint, hauled down the stars and stripes and hoist- ed again the confederate flag where it hag a right to be, the city not hav- ing surrendered. Gen. Butler was not present, and had nothing to do with the capture of the city of New Orleans. He found it quiet, and m the possession of the fleet upon his arrival, seyeral days subsequent to its surrender. was the trial and execution of Mum- ford.
