Hen Butler and the Governorship.

There is at the present time quite an
exciting contest going on IN Massa-
chusetts over the Republican nomina-
tion for governor in that state. Gen.
b. r. Builder is making strenuous CT.
forts for the prize and for several years
it has been much coveted by him. 1t
looks now as though his day had come
at last, although those in opposition to
him are doing their best to defeat him.
70 IS limited that in case Butler is nomi-
mated there will be bolt in the con.
vention and other mischief will ensue.
but to all such talk Buffers friends
answer that they are sanguine Of sue
cess, and predict that the convention
will be harmonious if not unanimous,
and say that Gen. Butler will carry the
state by larger majority than that OF
Governor WAshburne last year. The
Butler party are certainly untiring and
appear to be well organized. This
being SO it would not surprise US to
see the redoubtable Ben the next gov.
eruor Of the Bay State.

What Does it Meant

The departure of the Empress En-
gene from England for the continent
is worthy of note, and is looked upon
by some with distrust. The Paris cor.
respondent of the Cologne Gazette,
says MacMahon 8 relations with the ex-
Empress, are of the most cordial char
acter, and it would not be surprising to
hear of her soon in Paris. A new
eeup detat supported by MacMahon,
would be the French way of doing
things, and stranger events have hap
pened with that people.

AN UNLIKELY SToRY.-The new
daily illustrated paper of New York,
called the Graphic is assuming the
graphic garb, not only in Its pictures
but in its stories. It recently publish
ed a sensation purporting to be an ex-
tract from a private letter to the effect
that the Pope died sometime ago, and
that his place is filed by priest who
bears a strong resemblance to Plus the
Ninth !; and that this was done at Q
council Of the Cardinals because the
occasion was a critical one for the
Church. From the me source we learr
that the remains of the Pope are Sc
creted in the Vatican, where they will
remain until it shall be deemed pru-
dent to announce his death.

THE FRUITS. Missouri was one of
the first states to bow to the shrine of
Liberalism, and apparently relished
her position. AS result the affairs of
the state are in inextricable confusion.
Lawlessness and crime prevail to to a
great extent, the treasury is ban krupt,
and loud complaints come up from all
parts. The Germans are said to be
particularly sick of the new order of
tslings. and Carl Schurz is censured
for the part he has taken in bringing
about the bad condition of affairs.
