FOR TIKE ABB HOW PsIXCsaJIB MlrlAfne aud SfXICH WE CFFES AT NOTE. As we carry a CHsaMcsl Msaes as Coast, we are a aetter variety CaPa EHiimtttre M'fg TafB ATBSAalB BiMCAl limtUT. Referring to the fact that th Southern States will return solid Democratic majorities, because Democracy protect them from the persecution th Radical would re-impose in the event of the supremacy agaia of that party ia Congress, the Vallejo CkrwicU remark "Very well, if that ia the issue, the Republican party to ready to meet it. They are ready to match their record against that of the Solid South and let the North determine whioh to th moat deserving of reward for it past." Were aa impartial examination of the respective records of the Northern Radicals and the Southern people to be made and a just decision pronounced, the latter would not be beld the most deserving of censure. But this to not the proper maaaer now to meet the issue or determine the case between the two.

The Constitution ia alone the appropriate guide and arbiter. It provide for and command equal right, equal privilege, and equal obligations and burdens, to bo equally distributed and maintained among all the State. Neither th North nor th South shall rule, or submit to, th other. The North Las no right to question or direct or control the vote or the local affair of th South, nor ha the South the right to exercise any- authority over the local affairs or th elective franchise of the North. Were Louisiana or Georgia to assume to dictate to Vermont or Massachusetts, aa to the party or candidate for which either should east it vote, and to threaten to its representation ia Congress a th penalty of non-submission, th act would be atrociously tyrannical, utterly in violation of the Constitution aud th rights of States, and it should be execrated by every citizen, without respect to party ties; and the same rule applies ia th transposition of th proposition.

Yet it to this atrocious tyranny which the Radicals of th North now insist upon, aa concerns the vote of the South. Has not South Carolina and Alabama as much right to constantly elect solid Democratic delegation to represent them in Congress a Rhode Island and Iowa hare to always sleet solid Radical delegations? If the colored citixens of the South choose either to vote the Democratic ticket, or not to vote at all, must the whit citizens, or the colored people themselves, be practically disfranchised or deprived of their just quota of Representatives therefor? The absurdity of th Radical position, as well a its monstrousness, ia at one plain, when thus stated; yet it to exactly this which the Radical maintain in relation to the South, and Senator Blaine and Page of California have A Boston special says that late Majotv General Benjamin F. Butler contemplate the immediate Issuance of a pronunciamiento to the National-Greenback-Socialist-Communist voter of the United States, pointing out the necessity of immediate organisation for the campaign of 1880, and laying down a programme of operation. Thi information may be true, the Washington foot thinks, aad it may be another of those "newspaper slanders" to which Ben, by hi own account, to the greatest martyr th world ever saw. It must be admitted, however, that there to nothing ia the career or character of the oblique-eyed statee man to induce disbelief in the story at first sight; on the other band, the logic of his career and character affords strong presumptive evidence, if not of th absolute truth of th report referred to, at least that Ben will do something of the sort at his own time and in his own way.

At all events, on the principle of "forewarned, forearmed," we deem it wis to assume that any calculation for 1880, which exclude Ben Butler as a disturbing element, will be considerably and perhaps fatally defective. Whatever view may be taken of th result of th late election, the Post trusts that, so far as th inside councils of the Democratic party are concerned, there will be an abatement of the extreme optimism which has characterized the calculation of the manager since 1874, and that in its stead may be observed a disposition to put a proper rate of discount upon appearances indeed, a disposition to base party calculations and estimate upon the minimum of logic prospect, and not, as hitherto, upon the maximum. There to about the same distinction between real courage recklessness in one direction a between caution and cowardice in th other and it frequently happen that the highest developement of courage ia found associated with the utmost caution, and the rankest recklessness sometimes turns out to have been a manifestation of hysterical cowardice. These observation do not now apply to the state of feeling in the Democratic party. But we cannot evade the fact that among the propensities of tha average Democratic mind, is to place too much confidence in the inherent force of the the righteousness of the party's aims, and, under the spell of that confidence, to neglect those details of campaign work and ignore those practical duties of organization which, under our system, are as indispensable to party success in the long run aa wise police and correct principle.

We have been led into these somewhat digressive remarks, the Poet says, by the reflection that such action as is prospectively attributed to Butler, might find the Democratic party unprepared to meet the difficulty which would be presented by it. Of course nobody not altogether daft, imagines that the Massachusetts bull-in-the-china-ahop could ever be elected President. The danger, whatever it may be, to not in that direction. But assuming that he supplements it by using the remnant of his Congressional term to make political capital for himself and then devotes his really magnificent genius for organization and his immense financial resource to the repetition on a national scale of the experiment which came no near being a success in Massachusetts, and it ia plain that no political caculation will be prudent which leaves him out. It is our impression that Butler, if he lives till then7 will appear a a Presidential candidate in 1880.

The question to be considered in such an event is not, What States can he carry? but What States will his candidacy be likely to enable one or the other of the regular parties to carry by plurality? We have but one basis upon which to calculate these possibilities; but one point whence to reckon these chances, and that to the vote polled ia the recent election. Upon this basis of calculation we discover that the Republicans have carrid, by pluralities only. State enough to constitute a majority in the Electoral College. We have to reflect that, had the opposition been united in fact as it was in spirit against the extreme and financial policy of the Radical party, it would have carried, by handsome majorities, the States of Maine, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota and Kansas. These States were carried by the Radicals, not because they were in a majority or anywhere approaching one, but because they were in a plurality over either wing of their divided antagonists.

The overshadowing' necessity of the time is a coalition of all the elements of opposition to Radicalism. And we do not deem it the part of prudence to ignore the fact that the appearance of Butler in the field as a Presidential candidate will considerably enhance the difficulty of suck a coalition. But while this pessimist view of the case is strictly true, it is not altogether unrelieved by other considerations. There can be no doubt that Butler, as the National Greenback candidate for President, would te infinitely more obnoxious to the prejudice of those members of that party who went to it from the Democracy than to those who came to it from the Radical organization. The Radical organs may say what they will of Butler, hut there remains the fact that he has a great many admirer and not a few sympathizers in the ranks, tr, more properly speaking, in the alums of the Radical party all-over the country.

But in the Democratic party his admirers and sympathizers are confined to the State of Massachusetts. In we may say, as a sort of political paradox, that Ben Butler, though a Radical-Republican politician of the most offensive antecedents, finds his popularity in his own party outside the State in which he lives, and all his toleration by the opposition inside it. If he appears in the field as a Presidential candidate, then, it will be necessary to a great extent to discount him by contraries and estimate his strength by paradoxes. But he must he discounted and his strength must be duly estimated and provided for notwithstanding. And the manager of the party most vitally interested in securing a coalition with the bulk of the voting elements which Butler assumes to represent can depend oa him to take quick advantage' of any error they may fall into.

Congress is very active, aa It always is early in the session, in doing much which ends in nothing. As mosquitoes in the season, so with members all are ready witb their Bills, and the treasure of the Republic, if not its blood, in most caa as follow. Some very worthy Bills have been presented, however, of a general nature, among which is that by Springer, Democrat, of Illinois, in reference to th termination of the present treaty with Germany, by which naturalized citizens of German birth are now subject to arrest and detention to perform military service in that Empire, in case they return there to visit. Under the old treaty this could not be done. But Bancroft's treaty of 1868, under Radical reign, imposed the severe rule against German-American citizens.

Th Southern Pacific Railroad Company have prepared for a vigorous campaign to procure favorable legislation, and th Texas Railroad lobby of Tom Scott is similarly active. The contested election cases still before the House are of Haralson, colored Radical, of Alabama, against Shelley, Democrat, who has the seat, and of Metcalf, Radical, of Missouri, against Frost, Democrat, th seated member. Senator Sargent has been unable to attend th session so far, on account of illness. He is convalescing. The Blaine resolution, to reduce the representation of the Southern State unless they elect Radicals to Congress, is the political bone of contention for the session, as so much capital for the campaign of 1880.

He thinks it will be more effective than the "bloody-shirt" which proved like that of Nessus was to Hercules to himself and Morton in. 1876. Page of California ia the tail-tag to the proposition in the House, much after the manner of Gratz Brown to Greeley's coat-tail, in the campaign caricature of 1872.

They should bear in mind that when a man has pledged himself to both sides bis safe course is to maintain silence.

We would respectfully call th attention of th Concord Monitor and Penobseot WarWkop to the election return from th town of Monroe, in Maine, where there Is prima facie evidence of the most astrocious bull-dosing, intimidation and violence. In 1876 this town gave 238 Republican votes to 82 Democratic; last September it gave 60 Republican vote and 231 Democratic and Greenback votes. Waldo county in 1876, gave over 800 Republican majority; last September it gave nearly 3,000 Democratic-Greenback majority. There mvtt have bees outrageous bull-dosing, or such a result sever could have been reached. We fear that the sledge-hammer Democratic-Greenback party carried things with a high hand, stifled the voice of the people, and perhaps raped the ballot-boxes.

It to well enough to talk about the election in Waldo being peaceable. When a Democratic Greenback candidate receive more majority than there are Democratio-Greenbacker in the District, it to evidence enough that fraud, bull-dosing, violence and even murder must have been committed. Let a have a thorough investigation. Mefarcfal Madal All Areaaal. Corruption in th working of our boasted but defective school system, and scandalous dissension in th municipal Board of Education, are th shameful and mortifying revelation and topic of th day.

There to either rascality, dishonor, selfish disregard of official duty, false pretence, or incompetency, all the way from top to bottom, and if th schools were investigated as they ought to be, among the teacher there would be found enough to convince parent that their children are not properly taught, and that the most censurable favoritism on the one band and prejudice oa the other, for peculiar reasons, govern th award of merit and promotion in many nttancse. It to not th proficiency of the pupil which weighs; it to th disposition of th teacher. There are honorable exception to this practice; but they are, unfortunately, only exception th rule to th ether way, and very reprehensible. The evil is readily traceable. When teacher are compelled to purchase their position for to much coin in band paid, or to pay for aa examination over whioh no money consideration should hare influence, quit naturally, in a kind of aelf-afafsnc, they try to make th most, in turn, of their opportunities.

Hence, the ingredient of bribery and corruption permeates th whole system ia all its ramifications, and from teacher to the top, all are "on th make," at th saying goes. It to humiliating and disgraosfuL A chang to required, from root to branch and bough. Community to scandalised by it. Exposed roguery ia the management, odious wrangling and selfish squabbles ia th Board of Education, and only a speck of honesty and faithful performance, of duty ia any department or place, are the signs and th consequences. The people are disgusted and incensed.

DiTTS. CORTIGELLI SPOOL STT.K THE BEST. Bills to thi purpose already before Concrres. The trouble with the Radical to that they persist in regarding the Southern State a so many subject provinces, under tribute to th North, or, rather, to the Radical party. They con found their political organization with tbe Government, a on and th same, and hold adherence to their party a duty paramount to devotion to tbe Constitution.

Only let them settle down to the bed-rock principle that every Slat is equally sovereign and independent in the management of it own affairs, no matter what its geographical or sectional position may be, nnd that none have the right to question or direct the conduct of the others, and the bond of perfect union between all will be restored but uot until then. Hot Exactly a oataera atrajce. A on of tbe case among several hundred in which the Radical Supervisor of Election, the notorious Johnny Davenport, of New York City, robbed voters ef their suffrage at the late election, for no other reason than their Democracy, the Star reports this: William Jackson, a colored ii an of good character, residing at No. 67 South Fifth avenue, to still imprisoned on a charge of false registration. He was born in Hartford, thirty years ago, and has been living in New York ever since he was eight years of age.

Vhea be gave bis ballot his name and address were asked, aad were found correct on the registry. Nevertheless, a Deputy Marshal took upon tiuuelf to challenge his vote, saying, I know he lon't live there, for I live next door to the house myself." Jackson offered to go with the Marshal md disprove bis assertion. The Inspector, bow- ever, ordered the negro's arrest. He wanted to vote for th Democratic candidates. An inquiry subsequently made, at No.

65 and 69 South Fifth avenue, failed to disclose the residence of Jackson's accuser, while inmate of No. 67 say hat Jackson has been living there for some time. Had thi occurred in South Carolina, the col ored man been a Radical, and the Supervisor of Election a Democrat, Page and Blaine would lave fulminated two more Bill to meet the case. Vnd how the Radical organ would howl over it "another Southern outrage!" It is their bull this time. Affairs la Esrsse.

Th Austrian Emperor has called the Reich- trath to convene December 10th. The return of reserves from Bosnia and Herze govina has been stopped, and many are ordered to rejoin their regiment. In Belgium, M. Tkindt, Manager, and M. Fortampa, President of the Banque de Belgique, who defrauded the Bank of 20,000,000 francs.

have been convicted and sentenced th former to fifteen years' solitary confinement, and the latter to on year's imprisonment, with $1,200 fine. The Journal de Geneve authoritatively denies the truth of the report that Switzerland has re fused to receive the Papal Nuncio. A Geneva ceraespondent report that the Pop ha transferred Monseigneur Mermillod from the nouinal Bishopric of Geneva. If correctly re ported, the act to a very conciliatory one. A Russian division at Odessa ha been ordered to proceed immediately to Bourgas.

Atrocities continue in Bulgaria, Macedonia and Rhodope. Massacres and the most fiendish ex- cesaca are reported. Twenty villages in Mace donia were burned by Beshi-Baiouks, and only 1,000 of th inhabitant escaped. The Port to ready to discuss a definitive treaty of pac with Russia.

Th Tribune, Administration organ, character see it as a "plain document, a mere synopsis." Th Herald, Independent, remark that "it is noderate even to tameness more remarkable for missions which imply reconciliation with hi po litical party than for recommendations looking to legislative action plain and nerveless." The Sun declares that "Hayes fails utterly to "cognize the great aad pressing question of th times, and fail to mak any new suggestions worthy of a man of affairs, and again show him self to be as incompetent aa he ia a fraudulent A DNMea Oplalea aad Idly Expresses.

But it is aa honest advocate of it views, and it says thia: Th brazen impudence of th Republican journals ia unparalleled. Thereto not a known act of infamy that has not been committed and tefended by these sheets, and ia the most un blushing manner, aad yet they are now pitching into the Democrat of th South for having adopted Republican tactics in an effort to elect their Congressmen. Not one word of protest is offered by theae journals against the tactics of the Massachusetts mill-owners to defeat Butler, and yet the means employed to defeat him are a thousand timee worse than the persuasion employed ia the South to defeat notorious rascals seeking th suffrages of th colored people. A party which stole the Presidency, and rewards the blackest criminals for service performed in its behalf, cannot gain any sympathy among honest men.
