General Buffers Candidacy.

The candidacy of General Butler is
for the moment attracting considerable
attention in the newspapers and among
the political quidnuncs of the country.
A lite reflection must convince any
one that as a National movement. eX-
cept in so far as the loss of the compar-
ativelv few votes he will get may affect
the Demo ratio and Republican candi-
dates in two or three States, the canGi-
day of General Butler is an unimpor-
tant political event. General Butler
represents no principle, and no. even q
sentiment. He and his followers can
not become the nucleus of new party.
He stands for no principle and in no
way that is ineligible proposes any re-
form. He represents neither revenue
reform nor protection in such manner
as to attract the support of men of diff
ferent views on the sub ;ect of the tariff.
AS the candidate of the Greenbackers
he is the exponent of nothing now at
issue before the country. 1t is utterly
impossible to galvanize the fiat money
idea into new life. The circumstances
under which that idea had or could have
any vitality are passed and can not again
be revived. The vague name of Anti
MOnopolist" is intangible. and does not
appeal with sufficient directness to
voters to have any power. The ele-
mentS of an important and growing or
