GEN. BTTLER'S SOCIALISM,

We believe in Socialism 1t is our dclibe-
rate conviction that the evils now suffered are
rather Social than Political, and to be cured by
Social rather than Pol cal measures. III other
words, we esteem moe intimate and trustful
relations between Capital and Labor essential
to the general weli-being. Hence, we regard
with interest any demonstration, by so vigo-
ron, and fearless a publicst as Gen. Butler,
designed to improve those relations. We con-
cur most heartily in his proposition that the
State-this State, and every otheT-ought to pro-
tect by law It's children against the
exacti0n of excessive hours of labor, even
though the intemperance and greed of I'M
natural parents should uphold such eXactOn
We would enact that no child under fourteen
wears old should be required to work more than
six hours per day, none under eighteen more
than eight hours per day, and none under
twenty-One more than ten hours per day.
After that, we consider grown men and women
able to take pretty good care of themselves.
Gen. Butler seems TO think otherwise. Let
us review what he says on this subject:
81 have beard much Of the wrong which would be
done 10 the capitalist in the shortening OF the hours Of
labor: that the wOrkingrnen had right 10 diminu-
ton Of those hours have reflected considerably upon
this topic. IOusCrye that within the last thirty years

tnat its production has increased fonrold That Is TO

conductor having been killed at the Boston and
Lowell passenger depot in the former city, through
the displacement of a switch, the Coroner's jury
after finding the fact, blandly recommended the
corporation - to employ competent switchmen.' 1t
is precisely this sort of shilly-shalying which has
made railway and steamboat accidents so common
and destructive. A corporation having, through
gross neglect or through penny-wise economy. sent
lot of passengers to an untimey grave, is respect
fully recommended by the Coroner and his merry
men not to do so agan-a piece of advice which is
needed about as much as if the jurymen had whis-
tied Yankee Doodle"

The Tammany organs denounce the exposure
of the financial operations of the Ring as an
attack upon the credit of the city. In other
words, these journals believe it is our duty to
conceal tho operations of the Controller, lest
knowing them, capitalists should hesitate to
lend us money. Can there be palmer confes-
sion of fraud or a more open exhortation to
dishonesty If our credit is injured, 1t Is by
the men who add $3O,OOOOOO year to our
debt. and then refuse to tell us what becomes
of the money.

It's of no Use TO hope for anything else. The great
W. Victor Hugo, so far from becoming steader in
his utterances as he grows older, intensies every
day his spasms of style. Being elected member of
the n Y Liberal Club, he cannot say that he accepts
the honor as any ordinary human being would say
so; but starts, and sDOrts, and calculates in his
usual double staccato manner: u thank you l
thank your honorable colleagues. | receive with
pleasure your kind and friendly communication,
Let us have the same worship-progress and the
same Countrywide light" How worship" can be
progress" OF how country" can be light Mr..
Hugo may know but we don't.

It must be acknowledged that the behavior
Of some of the leading French politicians is
not specially edifyirg. NJ. Thiers is making
himself ridiculous with his repeated threats Of
RESIGNATION, his last essay in that line being
actually written out, and Withdrawn only be-
cause the passage of Ducrots amendment to
the bill for the abolition of the National
Guard had Modified his wrath. And now
Gen. Faidherbc, who wholly disapproved Of
the disbandment Oi the Nationals has CEN
"sured" the Assembly and resigned his seat.
All this appears very childish. We are re-
lieved TO know that NJ. Theirs is unalterably
fixed in one thing-he has his, mind made up
to accept no compromise on the question Of
t,,c prolongation of his powers. He will have
tho whole or none.

to the keel of ship and thus delays its progress
Spectators have amused themselves by finding in
the lower animals types of mankind. We have our
selves noticed a kind of Sucking Fish on two legs
which is IN the habit of attaching itself TO the mu-
nicipal ship, and making it sail in highly unsatls-
factory manner, while at the same time, growing
fat in most mysterious way. We don't say that

that churches to-day perpetuate the characters OF

"bears the stamp of John Robinson :" the Presby-

is bound to acquiesce in the intellectual conclusions
of another that each confessor is quite at liberty TO
select his own Connection and that salvation is just
as sure within pale as another or perhaps even
within no pale at all. Then, we can imagine Roman
