Tkcuii'Sii hit can an would do well to retire to if or os', r orrery. Tub campaign in tbe auveolh is warm snougb to cork the independent goose. Ukuls Billv Kvaar, practices law and keeps quiet, lie is earning a liv ing on both ends of the line. "Tusas are but two parties," wrote Emory Speer, in inns, 1872, "the democrats and tbs radicals, and one who opposes tbe demrerata forth era the cause of radicalism.” Quite true, Mr Speer—aptly spoken. It war true in 1872, and is just as true now. He who opposes the democracy as Mr Speer is doing is undoubtedly farther ing tbe cause of radicalism. We did not nerd the testimony of Mr. Speer to mike it authentic, but we are g'ad to bays the tea*imony of Mr. Speer on the subject Hr is a competent witness. Hualso ttie last boors of the Potter committee Ben Butler was absent The committee was very harmonious. Alt tbe a. mptoms are that Citizen Speer will not re|ieal the revenue on whisky in the next congress. This is too bad. Ill* eUMBMJ.ll LETTER. According to Ben But'er, the Potter committee are in possession of the orig inal Sherman letter. Bsn has seen it and baa no doubt of i:a genuineness. We may therefore look for another lively Butter in the cibinet, and some more arg mentatlve letters from Sneak Sherman to Mr. Potter. It is probable that this letlet baa but recently come into the possession of tbe committee, otherwise either John Sherman or Mrs. Jenks would have been confronted with tbe tell-tale document. It may be, however, that it has been in MacHa- hon'e little satchel all the while, acd has been held b ck in order to give a fitting culmination to tbe fraud inves tigation, It so, the democratic mem bers and Ben Butler most have been greatly amused at Ibe dramatic unve rac.ty of Jacks's wife of Louisiana and dlrguated at the more serious perjury of Hnesk Sherman. It the let ter, when it is produced, proves to be the genuine letter, dictated by Mrs Jacks and written by John Sherman, it will i ben become the melancholy duty cf Mr. Hayes to giye his secretary of the treasury a foreign mission and make him at least tbe peer of that other fraud manipulator, Index Noves. Bsothxh Bxmihxb says he erjtye solitary soul-bat lie. To be efficacious they ought to be of the Turkish va riety. Mas.

Now let Theodore return and hang up aome m ire pictures In the dim recesses of his p'trlor. Tub rumor that the delegatee to the Newoan convention will ctrry along c Miking utensils amt camp out Is pro bably exaggerated. Tits meeting beiwei n i peer and Bil lups at Toccue the other day was a reg ular democratic revival. Our informs tion is that Colonel Billups rather swept the field. Tns fact that be was never called be fore the committee is quite a feather in ti e cap ol Colonel Ampt, oi Cincinnati. He ia lull ol information, but his con; science ia rlear.

The great American aneak's opening speech reads like it was dictat'd by MraJenka. Smitst Clavton lias •gain entered the political anna. He is fair enough to print a representation of the man who took hie pale pink scalp. Thera ia nothing like fairness in matters like these, ltia tbenext Tbiee EETVBUUJM COSSOLA TION. In writing of the greenback move- movement in the aonth and criticising tbe attempt ol certain office-seekers to take advantage of the widespread en- thnaiaam in favor of financial reform and organise a new party, we have made bold to aay that the effort was no only the sheerest piece of folly that can devised, bat that it would reanlt in crippling the democracy. The holies' republican papers at the north re gard this untimely movement much in the same light and are dis posed to congratulate themselves that ee oi the close districts it will reanlt in tbe election oi repob'ican con gressmen. Time, tbe New York Tri bune, which, oi late, ie a more pro nounced organ than the Times in spile ‘ the daily delnga of awash ibat appears its editorial columns is inclined to draw c -neola'icn from the altitude of aome of the more unreasonable green back man. Speaking of the need of republican nnity and harmony at the north, that paper aaya encouraging signs are not lacking. ‘In very m»ny doubtful districts,” the ediu r goes on, "tbe greenback movement, which dem ocratic demagogue* have lowered so long, will draw tbe democratic candi dates a great number oi votes." As a warning rocket thrown up from the camps oi Ibe enemy tbe declaration which we have quoted ahonld cause our greenback friends to carefully con- cunaiderithe responsibility they take when they propose to organise anoth er party. There are no elements ol op position to the green blck movement in the democratic party oi the south, and we hold therefore that it isthednty oleven the extremists among the grn. n- backer* to stand by the old organisa tion. It ia a duty that ia dedicated by common sense aa well as patriotism. GOV.

I am too unknown and too hum ole to interrupt you on the Biump.; Nor do yen relish that. I dare not thrust politics on the sacred bench and interfere with vonr seventh day ministrations. Therefore I am forced to thin unsatisfactory method of engaging your attention, though I have but little hope of securing your reply. You Invite me to snpnort yon. You tell me that George N Leeter ia unwor thy my vote hectuae of his cotruption.
