nough to bring suspicion upon

coed in this race as he has the aid
of Ben. Butler and it Is currently
reported, Buffers denial to the
contrary, that Butler will go in
to the Cabinet in case of his car
rying the notifications of the trea-
ty. The President is now a can
didate for the succession in
1872. He has at last realized
that which l have astated SO
often in my letters that Boutwell,
was using his power and patrons
age as Secretary of the Treasury
to effect his own nomination in
1872. MI. Boutwell, is q repre-
sentative man, and the Eastern
Radicals know they can trust
him; and then he has the bond
holding interest, capitalists, Ma
Itional Banks and monopolies
generally at his back. Such a
man is dangerous. Grant finds
that notwithstanding he has gone

Judge, his Cuban policy more
than likely to be snubbed, his
San Domingo job only will be
carried by the same influences
that any other lobbyist carries
his, and very naturally casts
around for some way out. Some
mention Butler for the Secretary
of State. Well, if Butlerhas HE

Treasury, he having a greater
taste and more experience that
way.
General Grants way out is to
Iget rid of Boutwell, soon and that
will kill him, most probably. Put
Butler in the place of Fish who
lis no advantage to Grant poht-
lically, and Butler will control
men in both Houses. Place an
lother in the Treasury who will
run it entirely in the interest of
Grant and something will have
been accomplished. At present
Boutwell,, whatever power he
has, will not further the ends OF
his rival, and besides he was
forced on Grant in tho first place,
and it will only be when Grant
lis assured by such men as Butler.
