NEwyoRK DAILY TRIBUNE THURSDAY, JULY 81, 1879

many repetitions Of the Butler business, that
this thing has gone far enough. The present
attempt to excite public interest will fail. 80
long as General Butler was trying to debauch
the Republican party of the State, and through
that organization the State itself, the
struggle was interesting. There was some
thing funny. to be sure, in the way I'D
which the Responsibility of the Commonwealth
held up its hands and said Shoot and ned
from Buffers embraces but it was obviously
sincere. And 1t was SD often repeated that
General Butler himself saw that the pursuit
was in vain, and last year went over to WOO
the Democracy Twas a violent wooing 10
be sure, and the very funniest OF all innings
was when the Massachusetts Democracy began
to put on vrtuous airs and pretend TO De
shocked at his advances as If that improper
and disreDutable old party could be scan
dalIzed by anything The upshot OF IL
was, however, that he captured the De
mocracy, and by that act relieved
the Republicans of his pursuit and
his presence. 1t would be proper, we suppose,
IN congratulate Massachusetts Republicans
upon the fact, but they actually seem al
most sorry he's gone; he made their
nolitics so lively. And even now that he has
departed, and can only look to the Demo-
cratic party for support. leaving the Republic
cans TO make their nominations unmoleSted,
they are trying to get up little scare over
the possibility of his being nominated by
{ Democrats and supported by enough RepuD-
jcans to make him dangerous candi-
date. He has announced himself again
rs n candidate, and the outside world is told
by Massachusetts,, with maidenly hutter, chat
the villain still pursues her. 1t won't do. II
General Butler wants the Democratic nominal
ton for Governor, we know of no reason why
he shouldn't have it., He is of that party and
fairly represents it, When he is nominatedthe
Massachusetts Republicans will simply have to
do what they did last year, and can do much
more easily this-defeat him.

the party and the State This is a correct diagnosis
OF the situation, and II is the best assurance of COM
ing victory.
If General Butler captures the Democratic nomi-
nation for Governor in Massachusetts, this year, ne
will not do 1t without struggle. The organ of the
respectable" wing of the party, The Boston Post,
says the Demo rats are willing 10 welcome him a
pure and simple reformer, but as aTtful entcer

and an Interloper. They warn bIm not to meddle

One OF the charges against Ewing is that during
his famous mining speculations be acted a double
part as lawyer and Spectator, which Is not COM
monty recognized as either sound morality or regu-
lar practice. As related by The Cincinnati Gazette,
the operation was like this: A large company Of
capitalists wishing to Ouy some of the mining lands
owned by one of Ewng's many paper" companies,
consulted him as an attorney and requested him to
ascertain the price asked and the probable value Of
the land, and recommend them what TO do. They
did not know that he was actually large owner Of
the land in stlOn, and he did not tell them. He
recommended purchase at the price asked, and they
bought. a suit Tor damages against Ewing ~ now
pending IN a Cincinnati court, on the ground that
he misrepTesented the value of the property and
concealed the fact that there were membranes

James. If, as the Republican leaders sus-
pected Lord Beaconsiield and the Enghsh
aristocracy, by their officOus patronage Oh DO
napartism, were "poklng fun at them" the
grim pleasantly of this holiday gayeV
was well-timed. Instead OF resentlng 'no
indignity offered to their cause, they
kept their tempers and iaugheu !"
their sleeves. While English sentimen'aii'y
found free vent, and London society was
scattering its rosemary and rue ana rhetoric
mon the Princes coffin, Paris was content
to toss i'm air the historic bOnnet-rouge OF the
Revolution.
The astute Due de BrOgle lamented not
long ago that he had never been favored by
Fortune with any of the good luck when
helps to make statesmen and heroes. since
the war with Germany the Liberals have had
nothing but good luck, for the Republic has
steadily been strengthened through the folhes
and bunders of its enemies. The faulty and
fussipess of the Due de Chambord, the sharp
practice of the Orleanis;s, the bombast ana
turbulence of the Bonapartists, the obstlnacy
of that self-appointed champion OF moral ana
social order, the Marshal, have all helped the
Republican cause. English sentlmentallty AT
TINS time contributes 10 the same result
Whether the regret for the Bonapartlst
Pretender be genuine, or merely an aHecta-
ton of aristocratc sorrow, 1t Is a curious
study in the anatomy of national melancholy !;
but the feeling is resented by the best ele-
ments of French society. Under the pressure
of foreign prejudice against the new lnsutu-
tons, national sentiment in favor oil them
will be sOlidted.
II became manifest after the 10th OF May
that a Republic which had been built up by
its friends could be undermined only 10y It's
friends. 1t is reassunng to learn that Gam
betta's purpose in reyiying the memories OF
the Bastille anniversary was to bring Bona
partisan and its English sympathlzers into
disrepute, rather than to conclliate Partisan
democracy. But what is meant by the phrase,
drawing France into the progressive current
land then joyously going with the stream ]" !
If the drift of that progressive current" Is
indicated by the Ferry Education acts, 1t Is IN
the direction of State absOlutlsln. his Is III
the abstract an ImpeTialist doctrine, and ON
yler's declaration, "The Republic Is an En-
"pre without an Emperor" Is something
more than brilliant epigram. The French
are such a gddy nation when once their heads
are turned! Their Republic must be not only
progressive but safe, and it can only be safe
when it is regulated by moral standards.

steadygoing class Of defaulters; he had
no prohigate habits, and apparently no
extravagances; was a member of the Masonic
fraternity and the Episcopal Church. HIS
one weakness was mania for speculation
and he gambled away, in the stock market,
his position, his reputation, his honor, his
family and his friends. These are losses when
a lifetime of repentance and work will hardly
repair, and any man who is tempted to play
such stakes in the game of life may well
ponder the lesson of Pillsburys career.
NEWCOMERS do not seem to realize that we
have in this city what may be called per-
manent pestilence. In the tenement-house
districts. and in other densely populated por-
tons of the city, scarlet fever has fairly set
tied itself. and there is a weekly average OF
cases and deaths, which, were the disease less
familiar. would cause great alarm. AS one OF
the officials in the Board of Health suggested
the other day, the number of cases OF yellow
fever last year did not exceed the number OF
cases of scarlet fever and yet, while the
first pestilence attracted the attention OF the
whole civilized world, the latter does
not even arouse the people who are sur
fering from it to the adoption or any
adequate precautions against It's increase
Persons living where there are cases OF scarlet
fever are not even required to tumlgate their
clothing before passing out into the streets,
and as a consequence, contagiOn is dell0er-
ately and openly carried among the popula-
ton. Although there seems to be dimln-
ished tendency to the spread of the disease in
Summer, the number of cases IN this city
during the week ending July 10 was 69j
during the week ending July 26, 40; thus far
this week. %. Elsewhere official directions
are given for the regulation both of the pa
tent in such cases and the persons having
charge of the patient. Careful observance OF
these rules may do much to check the growth
of the disease.

THE B1STILLE AYYITERsARY

When Gambetta hit upon the anniversary of
the destruction of the Bastille for his first
official salon at the Palais Bourbon, we ven
tured to suggest that a Republican house
warming on that historic night of the kevO-
luton was intended as an offset to the funeral
pomp at Chiselhurst, and to the tears and SEN
tmeutality of English society over the death
of a Bonaparte. Our well-informed Paris cor
respondent, who is generally accepted by the
American press as a safe authority in French
politics, confirms this impression. AS soon as
Gambetta was convinced that in spite of the
diplomatic explanations of the Foreign Office
the governing classes in England were mourn
ing the son of Napoleon III. and possibly
too the sutton OF Princess Beatrice,
rather than the unfortunate refugee who
was killed while wearing the British uniform,
he determined to render the mOck-herOlcs Of
the Bonapartsts a foil TO the triumphs of the
Republic. Taking counsel with his associates,

The death of a woman in the PRESBYTERIAN
Hospital from yellow fever can hardly fail TO
make a disagreeable impression upon the pub
lie. Ii has been insisted, from the time of the
first outbreak in Memphis, that there would
never be any difficulty in detecting cases of
the fever which should develop themselves
here, nor any difficulty IN removing such cases
Immediately to Quarantine. Yet this woman
was sent 10 a hospital nearly "A week ago,
was kept there in the neighborhood of other
patients, and dies there-the case having been
from the first one Of yellow fever. This is
very far from showing a proper degree Of
vigilance on the part of the physicians con-
cerned.
