aggrantlizing spirit of Sardinia, ro-
suited in tho unitication Of Italy
with Victor Emanuel as king. Ho
joined Prussia in tho Franco-Prus-
sian war, md received Vonico as his
reward. A most determined strug-
glo for the mastery of Italy thon
cnsued between Victor Emanuel
and the Pope, who claimed temporal
as well as ecclesiastical authority.
In 1870, Victor was completely
victorious, removing his capital to
Rome, tho Eternal City. His mis-
sion was thus accomplished. Re
contly tho Popo and himself hayo
becn on moro friendly terms; and
before his death Victor received
extreme junction at tho hands of
tho church. Tho deceased king
was much beloved by tho people.
His charities and bencfactions wcro
recently enumerated in m article
published in this paper. As kings
go, Victor Emanuers private life
was passably proper. Several years
since he scandalizcd his family but
gained tho appreciation of tho
church by marrying on his sick bed
a countess who had been his
mistress. Politically he was u sue
coss. Under lis reign Italy has
become respectable kingdom
for tho first timo since tho
irruption Of tho Goths and Vandals.
The new king, Humbcrt Renior
Charles Emanuel Jean Mario Fer
dinand Eugonc-callcd Humbort
for SHORTS tho second child and
Oldest son of Victor Emanuel. Ho
was born March II, 1874, and is
consequently not quite thirty-four
years OF ago. His life this far has
been rather ovcntful.
Tho recent success Of tho Rcpub-
licans in Franco appears to havo
knocked Bonapartist prospects
higher than q kite. NIacAlahon,
who has been described by his
enemies rs resembling George ILL.,,
of England, without tho lattor's
lucid intervals, has accepted the
situation, and acquicsccs in tho will
of the majority.
Ex-Qucen Isabella, Of Spain, has
bocn pronounced insane by the
Spanish Ministry for having dared
to visit Don Carlos, the Spanish
protcndor, because sho was piqucd
by tho marriage Of her son, the
king of Spain, to tho Duchess
Montpeusior Sho has been for
biddcn to enter Spanish territory.
Tho rest Of Europe seems to be
jogging along slowly, Bismarck is
again at tho helm in Germany, and
Kaisor Wilhelm still exercises
parental control over tho sons of
tho Faderlantl.

Tase West and specie Payment-An Opin"
aon by am Ohio Man-shersnan De"
sfres to Retire frOa Public Life.

WASHINGTON. Sept. s,-Hon. @. ". Moulton
of Cincinnati, brother-in law of Secretary
Sherman Is in this city to-day. In o conversa-
tion he advanced the theory that the Western
men who tenaeiously oppose the resumption OF
specie payment will after all be the beneflcia-
ries of the act after it goes into operation
The moment said Mr. Moulton. that resump-
ton is accom- pished and the premium on gold
Is wiped out the system of paying actual gold
to custom house officials will cease.
Importers will offer their checks, being certi-
fed by banks in which the importers have de-
posits. which will be received for duties. These
checks In turn will be used by the Assistant
Treasurer in making payments to the banks
at once Is an expansion, for while these checks
will be current In all business obligations in
commerce. as we'll as accepted by the United
States, gold will lie In the vaults Of the Sub
Treasury and. not being needed in the East,
will In time find its way to the West when 1t be-
comes necessary to move the crops.
Mr.. Moulton thinks that Secretary, Sherman
is growing tired 8f public life.- For nearly
a quarter of century he has held public posi-
tions, during which time he has been constant
ly under a heavy strain. The Secretary, he
says, Is extremely anxious that his plan for
resumption shall succeed, and were it not for
the pride he takes in making 1t q success. he
could throw aside his burdensome public life
at once and spend the remainder of his days In
such pursuits as would afford him more
leisure, bring upon him less abuse and give
him an opportunity to better enjoy life.
The New Orleans daily Democrat. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1877-1880, 1878-09-19

vulsed the Massachusetts Democracy. He never
did care the snap Of his fingers for regularity
and because he failed % break in on the other
side it would be the height Of absurdity for him
to affect to BE- particular about the manner Of
the only business Of the assembly. was to NOM
mate Butler. The rest was mere foolishness.
The Snn makes lIght Of IN the @ wy Bqtler By dele,
of the events at Worcester yesterday Of sur
prising significance Is that out Of 144o delegates
favor Of Butler for Governor, to 523 opposed
The wonderful movement at Worcester is the
voice Of general dieoontent. 1t is q protest
made taxes heavy and wages light. The day Of
fiction and Of fustian. and the men of pretense
and sham are passing away. The, day of re-
man oontemplates anything but peaceful
measures with the most scrupuous regard to
the rights Of property but the people are bent
omy and equal rights will have to prevail
whether BY democracy or by any other name it
The Star says: The Democratic party in
rock Of Butlerism. While deeply regretting the
sible to refuse O certain need OF admi iration to
the undoubted pluck and ineomparabe audaci-
ty OF the adventurer y Who accomplished such a
tertain that Gen. Buffers election would be
the apotheosls Of communism ETC.. we confess
o h Raeapes ana his ie0 coaaetne
with Kearneyism is @ substratum Of solid
sense and wide experience. When his
protege Simmons, was appointed collector OF
the port Of Boston, universal howl of in
dignation and disgust went up from the Hub,
yet twelve months had not elapsed before he
was pronounced the incarnation of off 3ial
diligence and virtue. In the same way Butler
would proudly make one of the best
governors Massachusetts ever had, espe-
cially as he would consider himself in
training for the subsequent presidential race.
The Times says: That wonderfully smart
man. Butler. stole the convention. There was
no platform, no need Of any Butler Is his own
sufficient platform but full ticket was NOM
mated and Butler has at last what may be
called regular nomination at the head of
regular ticket. The nomination of Butler was
