GENERAL BoYNToN, Washington CORE
spondent of the Cincinnati Gazette, is held ur
by his admirers as par excellence the honest
dorses him as one of the most careful of his
tribe. and keen and unprejudiced political
observer, and quotes in evidence from nota-
BILE letter on the tendencies of the Democratic
party in the last congress. in the course oil
which General Boyntou insists ''that moth
ing but fear that extreme measures would
jeopardize their success in the next elections
prevented the Democrats from revealing their
full purposes, one of which was to break up
the army and clear the way for Democratic
reorganization with ex-rebel material" He
says:
Beyond any question, it is the fixed pur-
pose of the Democrats, as soon as they
have control of both branches of congress, to
claim places in the army for ex-Iebels, to
place them on the pension-rolls, to admit
them to the national military asylums, and,
In short, to give them full share in what
ever the nation has done, or is doing, for
Union soldiers or their heirs.
On the question Of southern claims he is
equally emphatic, saying:
An immense payment of southern claims
will begin at once whenever the Democrats
secure both branches of congress. 1t is quite
the style in many quarters to sneer at those
who make this assertion; but for all that,
those who are only surface observers here
cannot fail to see that such payments are a
settled part of the Democratic plan.
There is not the shadow of foundation
for the above to rest upon. General Boynton
cannot name twenty, no, not ten men in
either house that have been, are, or are likely
to be in favor of such crazy ideas. The army
is safe so far as the Democratic party is con-
cerned. The ex-Confederate officers are all
provided for-some of them poorly enough,
to be sure; stll, they are independent-and
have no desire to return to army life. They
would not if they could. And as to the south
erh claims question, that was sufficiently con-
tradicted by the action of congress and the
speeches of leading members, who showed
plainly from the public records that, so far
from there being a bugaboo of southern
claims, the demands of our section in that
regard were millions below those preferred
by the north. The facts in reference to both
the army and southern claims are that the
Democratic party has made record that no
amount of speculation by the honest General
Boynton can disturb. In giving force and
effect to the policy of the Democratic party as
expressed in the words Economy, retrench-
ment and reform, the army may be cut
down, but it will not be reorganized as Boyn-
ton suggests, nor will ex-rebels, as he calls
them, be mustered in again; and as to south
ern claims, they will not be paid unless they
are Just and fair.

DooToRs will differ. The Chicago Tribune
thinks the demonstration in favor of Gen.
eral Grant for President in 1880, at the Re-
publican State convention of Illinois, il one
of the signs of the times that must not be
lost sight of by observing people," The
New York Herald, on the contrary, does not
think that it portends much of shower, and
says that "if Grant is nominated at all it will
not be by Illinois influence, but by general
and spontaneous movement by the whole Re-
publican party. He can neither be helped
nor harmed by anything done in his own
State. The proceedings of the Illinois con-
vention were in no degree influenced by Pres
idential aspirations or preferences.

SINCE the passage of the reconciliation
act the coinage of silver has amounted to
about % 500, 900, and to meet the demand in
the east for small coin, the Philadelphia mint
coined more than $500, 900 in quarter eagles,
and $4,000 in three-dollar pieces. About
s4.0OO, 900 in silver has been exported from
San Francisco to China during the last two
months. The minis are now closed for the
annual settlement, which will be completed
by the third of July. The minis will be re-
opened on the fifth of July, after which, if
there is no difficulty in procuring the neces-
sary bullion, the coinage of silver dollars will
be about 100000 per month, in addition
to the usual gold coinage, and most of it, we
suggest, should be in small change.

The Chicago Tribune, in an editorial un-
der the heading River and Harbor Bill, -
is careful to tabulate the appropriations to
the southern States, so as to convey the i'm
preston that the largest portion OF the total
comes to Us. This bis done in pursuance of
the plan developed by the New York Tyib-
"ne during the winter to keep southern
claims and appropriations before the people
in the hope of inducing the belief that when
the Democratic party has a majority in both
houses the public money will be squandered.
1t is also hoped In this way to revive the old
time dread of the ''rebels" getting control of
the government and destroying it by general
bankruptcy. Of course this is childish, still
as it is the heaviest part of the campaign
stuff the Radicals have ON hand it is well
enough to notice it and stamp it for what

MI Stenbens. of Geor~,,.

Nashville american: A little man can
never afford to engage in independent poll
tics. He always looks like pigmy clad in
the armor of Hercules. There are rare occa-
sions when great men and original thinkers
can afford to strike out new lines In those
rare cases where original genius and long
sighted perception of truth in new forms
point out new paths in politics, the rnde-
pendent stands some chance of being useful
instead of ridiculous. Mr.. Stephens is a man
of great ability and knowledge of history and
of politics; but his Judgment is singularly at
fault when he supposes that he can safely
make a panic, which was temporary and
passed away with the hour which produced
it, basis for a successful independent move
ment. The scare of the Republican party
was born of a consciousness of crime. but
even that did not outlast week. The half
dozen Democrats who shared the fear that
we were on the brink of revolution only made
themselves ridiculous for the moment It is
hardly possible that one of them can suppose
that he was the means of staying the rising
waves of revolution. Mr.. Stephens will
hardly assume that much, and the best thing
he can do, for his own fame, is to let the
panic be forgotten. He may succeed in an
independent race, but all his genius and abil
ity will not give his independent movement
more than local significance,

NEW York has become stationary city;
that is, it has ceased to grow. In 1877 the
assessed value Of real estate was 1896, 063. 933,
whereas this year it is set down at $500, $751;
zoo, showing an increase of only IS, 791, 767.
But Of this the Herald says that it is mislead-
ing, because, rightly viewed, these figures in
dictate a decline. 1t appears from the report
of the tax commissioners that new buildings,
and alterations Of old buildings have been
made within the year to the amount of $751;
574, $50. The increase of real estate valua-
tons should have been at least equal to this
amount, and the fact that it has fallen short
of it by more than ten million dollars proves
an actual decline in the value of previously
existing real estate.

REFERRING to the usurpations of power
by Hayes in continuing the Hot Springs COM
mssioners in Office when there is no proviso

ut is perhaps to be regretted that the inten-

ness of clerk But there is reason for ap-
prehension when the executive departs from
the strlct letter of the existing law. 1t would
be better even that some inconvenience should
be submitted to than that loose opinions in
reference to the powers of the executive de-
partment of the government should come
into practice ~

VERY much to the an noyance of certain
Republicans, the act of congress is being en-.
forced requiring army off ers to give up thei,
costly quarters in cities or towns where there
are either barracks or forts. At Omaha and
st. Paul, at New Orleans, San Francisco, st.
Louis and other headquarters, the saving to
the government will be considerable, besides
that requirement essential to wholesome
discipline will be enforced. The officers of
the army, save when on leave of absence or
detached service, should be with the troops.

HE NEW York Herald thinks that if the
democratic candidate is taken from Ohio,
MIR. Thurman will undoubtedly be the man.
Mr.. Pendleton is shelved in the senate: Mr..
Allen is too old; Mr.. Ewing has not sufficient

western Democrat is taken, the selection lies
between Thurman and Hendricks. Both of
these gentlemen are in good estimation by
