Ben Bntler's Prophecy.

In Philadelphia. on Thursday, 10th
instant, Gen. B. f. Butler expressed
himselfa at some length on the general
political outlook. He branded civil
service as sham, and thought the
Democrats in Congress showed la
mentable want of cohesion. He be-
lieved the next presidential campaign
will be fought, as the last one was, on
the character of candidates and the
scramble for spoils. There will, he
thinks, be no third organization of
consequence, as both sides will bid
for the labor vote. Taking what he
called a long-range view of things, he
expressed the idea that the great pre-
ponderance of the South in National
councils would eventually produce
discord again, but just when no man
could say. He referred specially to
the fact that while the South pays but
One-fifth of the taxes, she dominates
the presidency, the lower House and
soon will secure the Senate, all on q
system of representation based on a
suppressed negro vote. Trouble will
come some day, he believes. when
the South tries to use this power to
cOerce the North into payment of
Southern losses during the war. The
conflict may not be of the sword but
will certainly be a business one bred
of taxation.
