Bevond question, General Butler comes
nearer representing oil the bad and danger
Gus elements in American politics at this
time than any other man. He represents
principles. policies, and methods which, II
successful, will make the United States
SOOTHING and by-word among the nations
a thing for the slow-moving finger OF scorn
to point at during all time. Reputation OF
all debts and obligations, the debauchment
Of public and private morals, the abolition
OF the rights OF property, and the establish
ment Of political anarchy, are the logical
results OF the teachings which General But
Ter comes here to lndidnGpoll
Journal. k
How any Democrat or any southern man
can for moment tolerate him, or under
any circumstances avail OF his services for
any purpose, we cannot conceive. His fla
grant and shameless apostacy at the begin
ming OF the war; the vindictlYe hatred with
which he pursued the people OF the South
during the war; his cruelty, brutality, and
cowardice during that period; his wanton
and brutal insults to the leaders OF the
South; his mendacity, rapacity, and un-
compromising hostility to our people since
the war, and the relentless hatred with
which he has pursued US, we thought bad
placed him beyond the pale OF southern
ympathy.-Ansherst Enterprise.
Now that Greenback candidate for Con-
greSs has been found to contest the Rich

What success will attend their efforts is OF
course unknown to us, but the result will
be all the same-General Johnston will be

Senator CoNKLING puts our Old Hero,
General JOE JOHNSTON, along with Messrs.
THURMAN, PENDLEToN, VOORHEES,, and HEN
DR1cKs, as advocating "huge schemes 1or
more paper-moncy." General JOHNSTON Is
placed in most respectable company indeed,
and he is as far from deserving the censure
OF MIR. CoSKL1NG as are the gentlemen with
whom he is associated. What a dlstln-
puished citizen OF Massachusetts, says OF
Mr.. THuRMAN's greenbacks is strictly true
OF those sustained by all the gentlemen
named, and especially by the lllustrious
hero who will represent the Richmond dis
trict in the next Congress. The Massachu-
sets orator says OF the greenbacks proposed
by Mr.. THURMAN that they arc !" always re-
deemable in gold and silver" CoNkLING
himself could conceive Of no better paper
in his brightest and purest moments OF ar
dent public devotion.

General JAMES S. WHITNEY, in his speech
in the Massachusetts Democratic Conven-

"Men Of Massachusetts think you that
our ancient and honorable Commonwealth
has reached pass where man who
breaches such doctrine Of infamy as the
way to discharge the honest Indebtedness OF
the United States Government can fcist
himself, by self-appointed nomination,
into the gubernatorial chair OF Massachu-
selts? No! cmphatically, no! Massachu-
sets intelligence and integrity have sunk
to no such depth OF infamy. Talk about
the Greenbackism Of Democratic statesmen,
and the Grccnbackism Of Benjamin F. But
lerl They differ as light differs from dark
nsss; as honesty differs from villainy; as
religion differs from irreligion as the
greenbacks proposed by Thurman OF Ohio,
always redeemable in gold and silver, differ
from the grcenbacks OF Benjamin F. But

No Caesar at All.


The fop OF politicians, Senator ROSCOE
CoNKLING, in his dainty defamation, styles
BEAST BUTLER "ClEsAR, with the Demo-
eracy at his heels" Poor comparison, and
altogether false. C4EsAR's real greatness
should save his memory from the outrage
Gus insult. There is NO apology whatever
for it. BUTLER is nothing but scuryy
pohtican-of the kind which CESAR de-
tested and crushed as might mailed hand a
knot OF bees. He is so unlike the Roman
that he never succeeded in showing the re-
hottest idea OF military genius, his greatest
achievement being at Fort Fisher. 1t IS
mopstrous to compare him with CESAR,
and it is false to say that he advances
with the Democracy at his heels" He does
no such thing. The Democracy are not at his
heels. Those who follow him, SO far as
principle and intelligence are concerned, so
far as their desire for public good and their
honest purposes may be. considered, were
not Of any intelligent and responsible polit-
ical organization. They were mob. They
more resembled the followers OF MILO;
they were merely the partisans OF KEARNEY.
It is SANDER upon society to suppose that
any sincere, intelligent, and honest set OF
men could be led by BEAST BUTLER, WHO'S too
original, too utterly devoid OF humanity, to
be like anybody, and we feel gratified to
think that there is nobody. like him.
II the dainty Senator. with the auburn
ringlets can make no better comparison he
should Quit comparisons altogether. After
his latest he should have layed himself with

TIE DEMOCRATIC COMMEMORATIVE
Democratic Convention which assembled in
Faneui Hall yesterday was rs tine body
of men as ever met in Massachusetts. Only
a glance was needed to see that it had been
purged of its baser elements, and that it
worthlly represented the Democrats OF the
State who believe that they have principles
OF government to maintain, and who are
not ready to sell out to any "shyster" or
demagogue who offers them a fruitless tri-
umph. The contrast between this Conven-
ton and the Butler rabble at Worcester
was very striking. and the whole tone was
us different as civilization is different from

What Every True Southerner Feels.
The New York Eveninq Post says:


II MIR. Butler shall lead. there will be a
solid South of sort never seen before. To
every white man in that part OF the coun-
try. Butler is not Ben. Butler. or General
Butler, but Beast" Butler. He is The
man whom The South outlawed, and for
whose head a southerncr offered princely
reward He IS the author OF General Or
der No. 13. He is the man who, us thev
think, insulted southern womankind
with an insult which is not to be
forgiven, neither in this world nor
in the world which is to come. South
ern men hate him with hatred
which is as sacred and inviolable in their
eyes as purity is il the estimation OF a
vowed vestal. They oathe him and his
acts and his name They hold him to be an
inhuman monster, whose notion Of warfare
includes the outraging Of women. Politics
makes strange bed-fellows, it is true, but
this is an exceptional case. The southern
ers are against Butler in any case as the can
didate Of any party or the representative OF
any interest. He is to them a1adthenad
TnqTdnQtha, and no repentance, no atone
ment, can win their pardon.
More important still is the fact that every
southern woman holds herself to have re-
ceiyed at Buffers hands the supreme in
suit which no woman has the power to
have the disposition to pardon. This is
more important. we say, because in the
South, far more than in the North, Women's
feelings and sentiments give law to men,
and every southern man knows certainly
that no one Of mis- womankind will ever
forgive the southern man who sball-yote for
Butler against any other candidate what
ever. To those women Buffers name is
the one supremacy hideous and loathsome
thing which no art OF the political per-
fumer can sweeten. and southern men
could not support him if they would in
any conceivable circumstances.
