Cherry Pectoral aud Ben Butler

BosroN, May 4.-There Is no likelihood
that DR.. AVER, in the Lowell district, vii
take an active part in politics, this year
either for Butler or against him. The
doctor has been in ill.health for sevsra
years, and when last in Europe his iami
ly had much anxiety concerning him. HI
went ont to Chicago, lately, to look after
some Investments made there, exposed
himself to bad weather and anxiety o.
mind, and came home in feeble and be-
wildered state, from which he has since
recovered, in part-but he will not have
either health or inclination, this year
probably, for the controversies OF Massa
chusetts politics. His money may be US
ed to some extent against Butler, shoulC
should he run for Congress against TIT
regular Republican nominee. Some O
the Lowell Democrats hope that Butler
will be candidate, but he has come to nj
decision yet, whether he will run or not
Something will depend on the turn tn,
presidential campaign takes after the ma
tional conventions have done their work

The WinsloM Cnse.

LONDON, May DIN the House oi
Lords, to-day, Lord Derby replying to q
question Of Earl Granville in regard tc
the Winslow case, said the government
had sent dispatch to the United States
government which could hardly have

known it would be inoonvenient TO put
all the papers before the House.

royal titles proclamation does not fulfill

uTorE MoyEY.n--Mr. LaidIey, Of Ka,

"MoRE MoNEY." Laldley, oil ha'
uuwha, firmly believes that il his fnan-
cial views could only be adopted every
thing would work together for good for
the country. There would then be work
for everybody at good wages, and salts
factory profits for those who employ labor.
/, seems a pity (almOst) that Mr.. Laidley
could not have his way. But here is the
trouble with his plan. (Col. E. NJ. Nor
ton showed it up very plainly the other
day. Itis this: More money would, Of
course, start things up again. No spec.
tacIes are required to see that far ahead.
1t would start up railroad building again,
and railroad building would start the
furnaces again, and the furnaces would
employ labor again, and we'll paid labo!
would spend its wages again for every.
thing that men buy and sell. And thus
everything would be perfectly SplCRdid-
for briefspell. Then what? None Of 1.-THE
"more money" doctors can give US a di.
agnosis of the patients condition after
being set wild with more stimulus again.
Probably their prescription would be
something like this: Keep on building
railroads, and blast furnaces, and nail
mills, and cotton factories, and fine
houses. Keep steam up. Whoop up
business everywhere! Borrow money to
do all this with. Borrow more money! to
pay the interest with. Renew your notes
in bank. Never let them 20 to protest.
There is Of course no necessity to
pay them. Nobody wants "a note
paid that pays good interest. All
that is necessary Is to keep on
borrowing and.never paying. There can
be no crash as long as the country can
borrow and is not compelled to pay. And
until there are no more railroads to be
built, Gust as there was no fresh place at
last on Mark Twain's house whereon to
put new Lightning rod) or until there are
no vacant places in which to pile up the
nails, the cotton goods, the implements Of
agriculture, the fancy articles, and the
shoddy goods of every description, what
need we apprehcnd in the way Of aPanic?
What need We care about the lessons OF
