Butler has successfully inaugurated on q
smaller scale, in the interest of Sheridan
Shook, repetition of the diplomatic cam
paign concocted by himself, Dion Bouci-
csult and John Russell Young last year, to
drive LED Astray" into fame aid fortune.
A mock controversy was instituted, in
which Boucicault and his play were
savagely attacked, to which the willy Dion
replied, both over his own name and vari-
Gus nom de pEUmss. Some of the keenest
pens in New York were unconsciously
drawn by these literary banditti into the
fight, and it ended by healthy actor pum-
melting a sick critic and all the world and
his wife going to see LED Astray," and
leaving behind them nearly one hundred
thousand dollars in the pockets of the glee-
full Palmer and the loquacious Shook.

TO PROTECT ELECTORS.

The work of the Republican caucus last
night will be received as glad tidings of
great joy by thousands of responding
loyalists in the South, and by other thou
sands of Republicans in the North, who
have feared that the present session of
Congress would be frittered away without
anything having been accomplished to Sc
cure the restoration Of political power in
the Southern States to rightful hands.
The bill ITO Protect Electors and Pre-.
vent Fruud at Elections, " which we print
elsewhere, is comprehensive enough 10
serve that purpose II Is not 80 complete
as Il might have been, but Il IL sufficient,
Now let tiere he no tirnidlty when II Is
presented for consideration In either
House There can be no doubt about tho
result. rs tho caucus proceedings clearly
show that maioFty=a sufficient number
under the new We-nf the Lower House
are in favor Of IL passagei but there Is no
time to lose In getting II through the Sen
ate, 1t should become law before the
end Of the coming week,
No man In the country will be more re-
jOiccd to see II become law than the
Prcsident-not even the humblest citizen
that may be placed by its provisions In his
protecting hands, He has not sought the
extraordinary power which it will vest in
him; but he will not hesitate TO execute 1t
TO the full extent of its letter and spirit.
He will use every endeaVor to sustain the
action of the courts under ii, and will seek
through the vigorous justice for which it
provides to give the country a speedy real
izatiOn of the great aspiration of his life,
Let US have peace !"
1t must be expected that the Opposition
press will howl with rage and teen with
denunciation of the authors and supporters
of the bill; but those Congressman who
have the interests of the country at heart
aye! the safety of the Republic-will
not be deferred by such influences from
doing their sworn duty.

Here is q nut for the Republicans of New
York city to crack. The New York
Times. neglected to print the very able
speech of Senator Conkling, the only Re-
publican Senator from that State, on the
Louisiana question, although it was printed
in full in large number of Republican
journals in other cities of the State, as well
as in other sections of the country. An ad-
mirer of the Senator, a gentleman who ap-
preciated the speech as it deserved to be
appreciated, sought, without his knowl-
edge, to obtain its publication in the Times
The gentleman to whom we refer, inno-
Gently enough, imagined that the Times
people had omitted it by mistake, and was
somewhat astounded, as Senator Thurman
would say, when he was informed that its
publication could only be secured by the
payment in Advance Of the sum of one
thousand dollars! Comment is unneces-
sary; but it is suggested that the unnat-
uralized editor of that paper needed the
money for the purpose of hiring q substi-
-tute in the Jury box
