Ben Butler or Politicians.

Gen. Butler told in one of his recent
speeches how politicians are made. The
process is thus described; " If they live
in the country they gtt togctder Il little
newspaper, aud that newspaper being
owned by them, they hire the editor, and
lie agrees to puff them upon all occasions
until ut length, by reason Of continued
pulling, ii is supposed that the politicians
are somebody after all. That's the way.
Hasn't that been the way IN this state,
and haven't people always looked into
newspapers TO see what there was about
public men, and rarely thought for them.
selves. Pardon me for saying So" And
here the General proceeded to show how
public opinion is made, Here, he said, is
one man In the city living in a garret,
dear at thirty dollars a month, whom his
landlady wouldn't trust a week for his
board, and he writes something 10 put In
the newspapers and It is put in type. Well,
he looks as well in that type as though he
were decent man. You cannot tell the
difference between him and decent man.
Well, then, another man 10 hired, aud he
writes auother piece in another newspa-
per, and then each newspaper copies
each mans piece, and then they have an
other NAN to copy that and that Is public
opinion.

CURIOSITYES OF THE CANVASS In BROOKLYy

The Board OF City Canvassers have been FOUNDER
ing about "in sea OF perp,exity" during the past
week, owing to the muddled manner in which the
and inspectors at the III polling places
OF the city of Brooklyn performed their duty the
last election. The cOpgomeration OF unforeseen
and prOmiscu0us circumstances which led to this
shocking state Of affairs is set down as q conun.
drum which the most astute adept at conjecture
has to abandon as hopeless. 1t was universally
acceded that this FAIL with reformers ION deckn
everywhere, and the ballot canvassed by the best
OF the community, guided by strict Election law
framed by the Committee OF seventy five and
supervised by a Board of Elections, there could not
possibly be any mistake; but
THE RESULT FALLS SADLY SHORT
OF the most Sangune expectations Of the people, and
there is no use in attempting to conceal the fact
that worse canvass has rarely ever been made
IN Kings county. There are various reasons as
signed for this fact. Among others it
failed to give proper detailed instructions to
to the canvassers and inspectors as to what was
required OF them; that the latter did not pay at
tcnton to the lessons given and therefore went to
work without any Hnowledge OF their duty. Then,
again, the Board did not supply them with sum
were imperfect All these omissions tended TO
confuse
THE UNFAMILIAR CANvAssERs AND Inspectors
Hence it is that the Aldermanc Board of City
Canvassers have detected almost four hundred
errors in their canvass OF the city returns and have
before them this week and clucidate the returns.
As an instance of
THE IRREGULARITIES OF THE CANVASS
the fact IL cited that Tor Justice OF the Peace,
Second district, N. b. Morse, Jr candidate for that
office, "long term" received q large number of
votes for that position ''short term" for which
latter ne was not a candidate. The question arises,
What Is to be done with the latter votes Are they
to be thrown out or accredited to ''Maben,r who
was candidate for that Office ? This Is but a sam
pie OF the difficulties met by the City Canvassers.
The indications are, however that the result OF the
