General. Hawley Interviews a Herald Corres spondent in a Strategical Way. How the Telegraph Wires Were Worked Against Butler from Hartford. TIartrorn, August 26, 1871. This city, which chiefly has its being through the ald of insurance oMcés and the subscription book- sellers, Who flood the land with immense volumes of adventure, biography and travels; has been very much excited for the last few days over the long and cutting speech of Ben Butler, made at Springfield on Thursday evening. Hartford is now legaily the capt- tal of Connecticut, and will soon nave a magnificent State House on the banks of Hog River, the stream which skirts the princtpal part of the city. New Haven, which was the alternate capital of the State, has yielded in despair to the edict of fate, aud among tts politicians there is no hope of ematating Tammany 10 a good fat job, as all the small fry ward cliques of Hartford bave already began to calculate their gains as to the sums they will be able to take from the appropriation for the new State Hause, In addition to the State House Job the next ting which moves Hartford to 163 centre 1s the violent attack made upon Joe Hawley, the editor of the Hartford Couran!, one of the most respectable of ‘the republican journais in New England, aud rank- ing next for careful editorial management to the Springticld Republican, The Courant 1s one hun- dred years old, f believe, or more, and its editor, Joe Hawley, was @ major general in the war and served under Lutler, but for some years past has opposed the redoubtable Ben for reasons best known to him- self, particularly in the contest which prevailed at one time between Buiter aud 8. H, Dana, Jr., for Congress, Butler, asevery one knows3, is a tough man and can bit an envmy back in a manner that 13 extremely unpleasant, and accordingly on Toursday evening, when Butler made his speectt at Spring- field, he took occasion to mt General Hawley very sharply over the knucisles for his op- position In the past, He stated that he had dis, missed General Hawley from iis command, while serving in tho Army of the Jaines, for incompeteucy. General Hawley has many friends In Hartford, par- ticularly among the Connecticut soldiers who served with him, and therefore there is considerable fee ing in regard to the attack on hin by Butier. Among the workingmen in Hartiord, os well as atl through- out New England, Butler has numerous supporters, who believe in his advocacy of the doctrines of labor and Communism. Batler’s speech at Spring- fleid was perhaps the most masterly and artful appeal made in the United States since the days of Aaron Burr to the classes of men who differ essen- tially aud radically on great questions, while they may be united on side issues, He ts the Charles Reade of political speakers, and whatever ne be, a dcmagogue or not, he seizes the situation at once d gives, in @ few seutences, the pith of an argu me Forieny, but in the most telling manner, rhe Springéeld Xepuducan and the Boston Adver- tiser, as well as the Courant, cante in for a share of his denunciation, and when the latter sheet was spoken Of in ho compiimentary terms, a Mr, Lawson, @ reporter of the Courant, who Was preseut at the Springtield meeting, tustantly arose and telegraphed the substance of the charge made against General Hawley by General Butler to the former gentiemaan in Hartierd, General Hawiey is a siarp uewspaper Man aud knows very well tat itis au evidence of good judgment to have a contradiction of an acca- sation made on the same day in the press that the accusation appears. Accordingly the next morning, when Buder’s speech appeared, denouncing Gener Hawiey, the latter gentleman sent a despatch al! over the country Wiich came oul simultaneously with the charge oi Butler's. ‘This despate. stated that bailer had told an tafamous falsehood, aud tuat he was a “har and a blackguard.” ; I calied on General Hawisy at the editorial rooms of the Courant, Which are situated on Pratt streey, aud had an interview with him of two hours’ dura- uon. The editorial rooms of the Courant, like all the editorial rooms in New Engiand, are up at the head of a dark stairway, 1 found General Hawiey sitting 12 the rooms of the managing eduor, which position he holds, I believe, on the Courant. ide is a stout, well-proportioned, weil-looking gentleman, verging toward the fifties, with a prominent fore- head, a full round face and wears & mustache and goatee in the military jasbion, L stated that she object of my visit, and he very courteously vouch. safed all the information in bis power in regard to his row with Butier. HERALD CORRESPONDENT—General, what where the original motives of che quarrel between yourself and General Batler? General HawLEy—We may as well begin at the beginning of the connection between Geuerai Bui- ler and myself. HERALD CORRESPONDENT—Very well, General; I suppose that is the best way. eneral HawLBy—I was under Butler’s command over eight mouths, beginning in April, 1364 Ne recommended me for brigadier general just alter a severe fight at Veep Run, August 14, 1854, and gave me command of a division Of troops in Uctover af- terwards, ‘which division I held in a movement oat Of the ines and in battle, October 27 of same year A few days after I was detatied by ferry to taxe 8,000 picked troops to New York city to keep the piace during the Presidential campa Tanad six or seven regiments of tmiantry and two regular batteries, e the regiments were Eastern and a few had troops, served under me, ‘Tuerg was @ regiment from Indiana and one from St. Lawrence county, New York State, I beiteve, He had command of the movement, put 1 had the entire handtug of tue troopa, Butler was in command at the Hofman House, and I don’t Know that he ever saw one ot the regiments, After the ovcupation bad ceased I re- tarned with the troops to my old pogition—to the Army of the James, and no fault was found wath me.

My position extended from the New Market road around eastward by New Market Herchts, and em- braced several batteries, forts and between six and seven thousand first rate troops, Butler would hardly bave trusted me wita such a position if he had thought me ineMeient or incompetent. It would have been very easy to have sent me of with Terry when hie brigade went on the expedition to Fort Fisher.

It was that General Hawley, at the Wood- Stock celebration of the Fonrtn of July, 1370, had offended Buler probably by getting upon the plat- form, General Grant being present, and defending the Chinese agaiust the attacks made by Batier on them. In relation to tie damaging statements mado by General butler in regard to tre enormous, and, as mi believe, unaccountable expeaditares of the Massachusetts republican State government, General Hawley guarded)y stated that he was not well enough acquatuted With Massachusetts Stare affairs to beable to give our correspondent any in- formation, In tact, General Hawley was very Sates and cautious throughout and made @ ‘rious effort to interview the correspondent, which Js reversing the order of nature, and could snoh a syatem prevail it mignt destroy the umities aud set the whole English speaking worid agog.
