Current Notes.

Siuceiely do we hope that Gen. Butler,
though not wanting many strong and earnest
friends, will now be so thoroughly convinced
as to the wishes and views Of a majority OF
Republicans in Massachusetts that he will
not try the question a third time. This will
| certainly be his course unless his ambition
| should unfortunately get the better of his
| common sense Neao York Independent.
This is the alarming effect of it upon the
Newburyport Herald: "That day will be a sad
one for liberty here and throughout the
world, when the divine right of boiling
preached by the Rev. James Freeman Clarke
at the Wo cester convention, shall be accent
ed generally by the American people. 1t is
the doctrine of Frencbmen, Spanards and
MeXicans, the bane OF liberty, and the surest
nope of tyrants'
These last two state contests in Massachu-
sets are well understood to be gradual

The days of s ch men as B. F. Butler and
those who trafficked with the late Cakes
Ames are passed, and though the people may
be still, to small extent, affected by the
moral dislOcations and degradations pro-
duced by the CONFUSION Of war, they have
recovered from the shock, while many of the
leaders bred in those times are beyond recov-
ery.-New York Erening Post.
A writer n the Woman's Journal says
that the present style of dress among women
lmprisons their natural energies so that
every movement becomes pathetic protest

The World draws the lesson from the f.
nancial crash that the experiment of building
railroads with borrowed money has been
fairly tried and must now be abandoned as a
failure, aud that no subsidies must be given

nor credit.
The N. Y. Times says system of
free banking is one of the preventives of
financial panic like the present. When the
operators" k ow that the currency is of
such character that it cannot be locked up,
one ofthe most important elements OF their
calculations will be placed beyond their con-
troll.
The N. Y. Post says a powerful cause Of
the financial crisis is to be sought in the con-
dition OF the currency, which, consisting ex-
clusively Of paper, it is impossible to render
stable aud worthy of trust. All experience
and it has been broad, impressive and last
ing experience-shows that you can no more
rely upon an inconvertible paper as a medium
of exchange. than you can upon an Attic
