No fact strikes the investigator of this
subject more forciply than that so very
small portion of the butter made in
this country is exported (25 millions
out Of / 500 million pounds; and that
this is principally of the lower grades,
which are consumed by the laboring
classes. In fact, when butter gets 81
poor that il can find no market here, it
is sent abroad as tine only outlet for it;
but in fine qualities, we are only laughed

the water.
While this may, In some measure, be
accounted for by the delicate nature OF
the article, and the difficulty which un.
questiOnRbly exists of retaining the

He does not insist that the dress should be costly
ON the contrary. he advises that 1t should be
markedly simple, to put down the curse of luxury

SoUyD DocTPIyE FROM IOVa.

The Iowa Republicans have put themselves
sauarely in line with their brethren in Ohio
ON the main issues of the day. There is no
upsound timber in their platform. They see
that the action of the Democrats in Congress
is a practical reassertion Of the old Calhoun
doctrine of State Sovereignty which resulted
in four terrible years of war, and they declare
that tins country is a Nation and not a Con-
federacy. They condemn the attempt to facil-
itate bulldozing in the South and fraud in
New-York City by sweeping away the safe
guards thrown around fair ballot by Federal
statutes, and they commend the President and
the Republican Congressman for their opposi-
ton to such attempts. In the Democratic
threat Of no money for the Army they hear an

echo of the same threat made during the ne
belion, and their answer is that the Govern
ment of the Union could not then be beaten
IN death and cannot now be starved 70 deatn'
The financial policy of the Republican party
il heartily approved of and its results declared
TO he a source of pride The silver question Is
toucbed mon TO the extent of declaration
that the profits OF coinage should inure TO the
Government and not to the bullion owners
and there is a demand for maintaining the
currency at par, and sturdy rebuke OF Con-
gressional tinkering with the finances. These
points are sufficient assurance OF the souhd
views of the Iowa Republicans on all matters
concerning the currency.
We have rehearsed the main features OF the
Iowa platform bearing upon National anairs
TO show that the Republicans beyond the
Mississippi are in accord with the Republic
cans in the East. As State after state hoius
it's convention it will be found that there Is
thorough harmony and unity in the kepuoh-
can party. Minnesota will answer Maine as
Iowa has Ohio. The voice OF Wisconsin VIII
he the voice of Massachusetts,, and New I ork
and Illinois will speak in the same tones.
Everywhere the Republican party Will demand
free and honest elections, the unchallenged
supremacy of the National authority, the en-
forcement of the constitutional guarantees OF
freedom and suffrage, and it will make de-
termined resistance to the Democratic attempt
TO gIorify the Lost Cause and to place the
Government in the control of the men
who lately sought to take Its life. The
State campaigns of 1879 will fix the line on
which the Presidential battle of 1880 will be
fought. Thus far they have opened most
ouspiciously for the Republican cause.

mean to do so again, but want to make sure
that civil officers of the Government shall not
be sustained by its military force in suppress
sing or furnishing partisan rifle-clubs or mobs
They have learned from Fernando Wood that
there was no hope of carrying New-York for
the Democratic candidate unless the election
laws should be repealed. 1t is trifling to say
that these Confederate Brigadiers were not
desperately in earnest about the repeal OF
these laws. They could grasp control OF the
Government only by fraud in Northern cities
and force and fraud at the South, and they
resolved to face the greatest risks IN order to
syeep away the obstacles TO their success
They have risked much. Everybody knows
that they have lost much-the prestige of sue
cess. the confidence of conservative and loyal
men. the chance of profting by Republican
divisions. And what have they gainedf The
laws giving the President power to employ
the Army in the enforcement of law, or the
laws giving Supervisors and Marshals power
to prevent or punish fraud-have they been
repealed, or do they standi
AS everybody knows, the attempt to repeal
these laws has been defeated and abandoned.
The laws stand. The powers of the President
are precisely what they were when the extra
session was forced upon disguised country.
The laws providing for the appointment OF
Supervisors and Marshals, and defining their
powers, are precisely the same. Moreover,
the House has abandoned all effort to deprive
the President of any power as to the Army,
save one which he never claimed nor exer-
cised-the power :" to use troops as police
cat the polls.n The all-sufficient power
which he does possess-the power to station
troops wherever it may be necessary to sus-
tain officials of the United States in the dis
charge of their duties, and to sustain them to
the end-the Confederate Brigadiers now leave
untouched and unchallenged.
The attempt to nulify the election laws, by
refusing appropriations required thereby, Is
absolutely all that is now left of the revolu-
tionary scheme. 1t is safe to predict that
another crushing veto awaits that attempt.
The President, whose firmness has prevented
the repeal of just and necessary laws, is not
likely to consent to their notification. About
that measure, it will be time enough for Dem
ocrats to boast when they have it signed. As
to the rest, it is plain to intelligent citizens of
either party that the Dragging of the COnfeder-
ates Is designed to cover their defeat in an
effort to break down just laws by coercive
methods,

will have special interest for English boamen, mas
much as it is expected TO determine the relative
merits of the American and British methods. The
easy victory which Hanlan won on'the Tyne, last
month"; has brought the English style into dlscredit,
and Elliott has not dsdained to try the long slide ana

swindhng the country by pretence Of legislation.

the greatest swindle of all has been peTpotrsted

One of the Louisiana witnesses has disclosed
the proper nomenclature for political evidence
obtained in that luxuriant State. A Louisiana
affidavit is a quasi affidavit" and a Louis
