To THE EDITOR OF The SUN-Sir: Now

ceded by our Republican opponents, thore is

even real estate Is stronger and more 10 demand.
The immense meetings of the Democracy in this
city have been crowded with business men, and

largest firms In this city, employing thousands,
are for Iilden ana letter times, and are working
quietly but effectively for his election. When

money, MACKEY and KEMBLE now looked
TO the bankrupt's estate for indemnity, and
seem to have had their usual good luck in
the management of such tlcklish affairs.
ANpERsoN's real estate was sold on
MAcKEYs judgment and bought by him.
But when the return was made bona
ddc creditor resisted, and denied the
validity Of tho whole transaction, alleging
that the judgments were for moneys of
tho Commonwealth illegally loaned
by MAcKEy and KBMBLE TO AMBER
SON, and prayed for an issue. The
Court, not wishing, 1t appears, "to
give the case great publicity" de-
clined to award an issue, but
sent 1t to an auditor. By him MAcKEY
and KEMDLE were subpnnaed, but refused
to appear. The bank cashier, however,
was examined, and his testimony showed
plainly enough that tho deposit in the
bank was really n loan to ANDERSON;
and the final shape of things was
fixed up at conference between
MACKEY, the bank, ana the bankrupt.
Attachments were about to issue for
MAcKEY and KEMBLE, when their coun-
sci proposed that they would voluntari-
ly testify in Philadelphia. and would
agree to pay the expenses of auditor
and counsel IL an adjournment were
had to that place. This was ac-
cepted by counsel Of the impraotioablo
creditor who announced his intention of
extorling from these WORTHLESS more infor-
nation than the Legislative Committee
had succeeded in getting; but before the
time fixed, his client called and stated that
"he did not wish TO pursue the investiga-
ton further" He was bought of and
silenoed, n circumstance which forcbly
recalls Mr.. MAcKEY's similar retreat in the
JONES case.
Messrs Bon MAcKEY and BILL KEMBIE
have now flrst-rate opportunity for an
other explanation Of their system of addi-
ton, division, and silence. In the mean
time. our readers will do well to remember
that these are the men whom SIMON aud
DoN CAMERON would lead to the conquest
of the Federal Treasury through tho cleo
ton of HAYES.

Could Ben Butler Fill BIaine's shoes =,

The friends OF the peculiar-eyed Ben
BUTLER claim that his election TO Congress
is a party necessity. They say, and the
modest hero Of Dutch Gap himself says,
that it is imperatiyely necessary that
DLAINE's vacant place in the House be
filed by somebody smart, lively, sly, and
spiteful enough TO worry the life out Of
the eek Confederate brigadiers' who rep
resent at Washington still rebellious
South, and plot 10 regain by craft what
they lost in open war. Both BENJAMIN
and the Benjamntes are confident that
they know statesman who fills the bin.
II would he rather pleasant, on some ne
counts, TO see our old friend back in the
House again. Ben BUTLER in action, with
one optic glarine Mt the Speaker aud the
other beaming tenderly on the spittoon,
and with an exquisite mouth pouring forth
high moral ideas, couched in elegant
though somewhat hating periods, is spec
tacle both impressive and instructive. We
miss the kind words he used to say from
time to time of the newspaper press
words that have oheered and encouraged

very many journalists. For spectacular
and sympathetic purposes we should like
TO see BEN back in Congress.
Yet, having said all this, we are con-
strained to add that we do not think Gen.
Buffers feet quite large enough to fill the
shoes which Brother BLAINE kicke d of in
such hurry. BLAINE is smarter than our
Gloucester cod hauler. Once on n memo
rable occasion, BEN BUTLER, for a pur-
pose. locked jim BLAINE into committee
room. Our readers will recall the ease and
agility with which BLAINE escaped through
the window. On several occasions since,
when these two lively gentlemen have
measured wits, the result has inva riably
been the same. BENJAMIN has sometimes
turned the key on JAMES, but JAMES has
always found a practicable window.
Furthermore. BEN BUTLER is too honest
and too conscientious a man TO do well the
work In which BLAINE excelled. True
piety Is an admirable thing, but man cam
not be truly pious and at the same time be
the successful leader of the party of fraud,
dishonesty, and corruption. BUFFERS rest
less spirit may fret and chafe IL he Is dis
appointed in his ambition TO engage again
in active politics, but 10 will be vastly bet
ter for his soul and for his hereafter.
We therefore advise our strabismic friend
to withdraw from tho contest in the Sew
enth Massachusetts district. We also adj

fill BLArNEs shoes. to cast about for some

down as a millionaire, collecting enormous
yearly rents, and disbursing large portions
of them in the payment OF interest on
purchase money mortgages, leaving taxes
and assessments unpaid, while living at
the rate of from $4,000 to $4,000 year,
the first decline in real estate and rents
will find him unable to meet his interest;
his embarrassment will gradually increase.
and foreclosures will finally sweep out Of
existence every vestige of the magnificent
fortune built on so precarious founda-
ton.
During the troublous times through
which we have just passed, the real estate
owner has greatly suffered, in common
with every one else. But the real estate
Spectator has been utterly ruined. The
one will regain much that he has lost, by
simply holding on, while the other must
rebuild tho whole fabric OF his shattered
fortunes.

The registration in the city foots up to
the handsome total Of 1S30os, being an increase
over the registration Of last year OF $3.50. The
Republicans, we'll knowing that a full reestra-
tion means great and invincible majority for
T1LDEN, are raising the cry OF fraud, and
JOHNNY DAVENPORT is as lively as an eel hunt
ing for false regstries. The list, however, may
be taken as fairly re9reseuting the numoer OF
voters Of the city. Relatively TO our population,
the total is about what we should have. More
over, II Is only 235g7 more than that OF 1871, and
