This doos ot ariso from any good-will to Butlor, but from & vatioty of secondary motives, amongst whien i8 & notion that his secondancy would extort somo decent insurrootion smongst the more Buporaerviceable Ropublicans. i{u has now Elvnn them two great frighta, and will probably ave power enough foft to provont tho pas- eago of n rosolution. consuring the Ad- nistration for its indecent interfer- enco in tho domostlo affaira of this onco proud Btato. If ho can do this, his sup- Ilorkurs boast that ho will get more gntronugn hon beforo at Washington, and bo abundantly ablo to roward his adhorents'and to tantalize his antagonista, Tho Now York Zimes and Harper's Ww:!lfr &ot thelr ouo to give Butler active sup~ port dlreatly from Loog Branoh, and tho failure of thoro promptings to' avail in any degroo has irritatod both the Administration and the ro- spoctable Republicans of Massachusetta, Tho Adverfiser newapnpor, which is ownod by o #ot of Conservative merchants of Boston, Is perfectly callous in its rovolt, and it is 8o far followed by the minor Ropublican rogular journals that Butlor, tho ofber night, complimented the §) fiflggnld Republican for ita {fairnoss, whilo alluding to the Grant paper, the Unlon, a8 the Ropublican infant. Goneral dlsin- togration of the Republican machine I8 uro to follow Butlor's defeat. If ho bo beaten, the reg- ulare will tako euch indignant sation upon the bohavior of the Fodoral officaholders as will put Mr. Grant’s third torm out of the question in this important Btate. If he succeeds at Wor- cestor, { any Iater accident, n bolt is inevita- blo, and the best judges think Butler wonld then be olected. Mr, Bamuol Bowlos saya that, out of 60,000 Domocratio votes, Butler would got 45,000 1f nominatod at Worceater. The spirit of revolu- tion is dominant in the Btate. Nobody and no sentimoLt is wholly satisfled, but it ia conceded on all sides that four-fifths of all schools of ox- presuion are disgusted with the Washington Ad- inisiration, Butler hos been sending emissa- riog to Bowles, Bumnor, and othors, that if they will help him o the Gubernatorial chir, so that he can Ent somo absolute power, he will antag- onizo the Washington Government st the first opportunity, None of these will trust him, how- ever, and have roturned answors that they ses no good connequences to flow from his nomina- tion, and are opposed to every amelioration which might come by such n sacritice, The bothersome prohibition question will re- main unsolved by Butler's defeat. Ho has Pmmlud, it elocted, to onforce tho Prohibitory uw upon tho grest hotols as well as tho email groggeries, 80 B8 to test the publio ex) 0ri= ence; aud the liquor istorost, boliov- ing that the law would be repoalsd in this event, favored his oloction, as did tho T'emporanco party from, molives of radicalism, The Tomperance party can poll at the best about 20,000 votos. Gov. Washburn is nobody's ohoice. His name awakens no enthusissm, and his nomina- tion will givo no incroased vitality to the Re- publican organization, He is acknowledzed to ho sound, respectable, and no more. Bx- Gov, Bullock will preside over the Convention, but there in expocted to boe present, although somo doubt whothor he will not keep out of the way sltogother, Dr. Loring, Obair- mon of the Ropublican Btato Committco, His course has receivad the contempt of all fac~ tions, On the whole, the pmhnbllig’ of Butler's dofoat pleases, in & mild wns, respectable poo- plo; but those who wanted to eoo s lively cam- Dalgn aro disappointed. In either ovent, the Ginnt Administration will suffer throughout New England. Cieaariam has beon settled here by this braggart Cassius.

BPRINGFIELD, E‘gpt. 9—1:80 a. m.—The caucus received by the Bpringfleld Republican up to 1 o'olock this moming rendors Butlor's dofoat, by & deolsive majorily, in Wodneadsy's Convention sbiolutely cortain. Of the 40 dologates ro- Bm-tud to-day from the westorn balf of the tate, Washburn gets 80 to Butlor's 10 ; and of tho 108 in the eastern part ho has 86 to 07 for Butler, and 16 contested, This makes according to the . to ight, as 368; doubt- the Republican's totals: Washburne, 543 ; But- lor, 410; doubiful snd contested, 45, {Yashe urn has thuy 08 majority over Butler, glvlng the lattor every doubtful vote, and the 103 delo- f.m Yot to bs hoard from will inorease his mo- orityin the full Convention to 125, while it is Pprobablo it will roneh 150, The Maine Election.

Rumored Proposed Advancein Freight Rutes on Failroads in Wisconsines Other Railrond Itoms, Svecial Lispateh to The Chicago Tribune, Maprson, Wis,, Sept. 8.—According to infor- mation received hero, tho old adage, ** Whom the gods would destroy thoy first make mad,” i about to receivo a now illustration, Itis report- ed that orders have boen received from Eastern Diractors of leading railroads in this Stato to put up froight tariffs in this State. This, in view of the onormous buainess in grain transportation now taxing to the utmost the railroads of this Btate, whoso wareliousos and cars aro inadequato to rocetve ond carry what is offered, is an exaction againat which tlie peoplo will surely robol, as_ywantonly oppressive and utterly outragoous. This couran sooma simply suicidal on the part of the railrond managers, in viow of tho fact that in this State thoy aro entirely at the moroy of thie pooplo, to whom our Constitution gives ample power to alter or ropoal railroad chartors atthoir plenauro, and to investigato and rogulnco such corporas tions in their own way. If tho proposod lncrense of freights is carried into offect, such s spirit of indigoation will bo Aroused that nothing will be able to withstand it, andthe peoplo will elect such a Logislaturo as will pro- vide moans to keop gw-ph:P Eastern stockhold- ers within bounds, This is the first year for 80mo time paat when tho farmers of many parts of this Btate have had bountiful crops, and if they are sonding it to markot as fast as possiblo to disobarge obligations incurred during years of poor crops, thoy will not submit to having their pockets picked of an unfair share of the profits of thié hbulr Elth:)l;fiumfsx‘uzlhl‘gn. i peciat Dispal fcago Tribune, Maziox, O., Sept, 8.—The msnnfing officinls oftho A & G, W., the 0, C., 0. & L., and tho A, & C.

Bweet, Doptty-Commiesionor of Internal Rovenuo, arrived heré this morning, and at 8 o'olock, in connection with Col, Munn, Super- visor, and Maj. Bluford Wilson, United Btates District Attorney, he formally opened theinvestigatiotl of the dofalcation of Collector Harper by excluding from tho room all reporters of newspapors, under tho delusion that the pro- cooding aould bo kopt societ. Just what reason therowaa for holding star-chamber investigation has not zrrmurlrnd, but some suggeations, or rather apeoulations, have been mado which loads one to tfin conclusion that Harpor's embarrass- mont first arose from tho smount of money ho was compellod to uso last fall in order to secure the oléction of Gen, Grant, and this fact, should it anywhers bs mado to nppear, must Lo suppressed. I smt assured lay Tolinblo suthority that Harpor contributed £6,000 ox $7,000, sud perhaps more, to the campaign fund Tnst fall, But whatover fho reason was for tho secret conolave, it did nof avail to doprive Tue TnipuNe of what really did happen within tho annctorum, Mr. Bweot, boing the rauking offleer, toolk tho choir, and Maj, ‘Bluford Wilion, the United Btates Distriot Attornoy, called tho first witness, Mr. Albort Smith, who has boen the chiof clerk of Mr. Harper during his eniire ad- mivistration, Mr. Smith -seid, in sub- stanco, thai tho first knowlodgo ho had of Mr. Hurper's accounts boing at all combarrassed was in last June, when a balanco was struck, leaving umfiur indebted to the Gov- ornmont $46,000. Mr. Harper ot once borrowod the mouey and made the deficit good. As soon, however, as his accounts were approved for thnt month, ho taok tho moneys_received to the amount roquirad to dischargo his porsonal obli- zations ontered into to make good his_doficit in fim. This process was ropeated at the end of July and beginning of August, at which timo, among ‘other sources from which he bor. rowod, was from the Cook County Na. tional Bauk, where, upon his noto, indorsed Dy his father, he obtained $15,000. During the month of August he Lad again used monoy which belonged to tlio Government sufilcient o discharge nearly, it not all, of theso porsonal obligations. Near the closo of the month, Mr. Joseph, & Tronsury ngent, called at tho oftice to oxamitieInto the accounts, and then it was that, ruiu staring Mr, Ifarper in the faco, ho wrote out his statemont shownng the the extont of hig defalcation to Lo $86,000. He had not ox- pectod on sgont of the Tromsury al that timo in the month, as_ thoy usually callod at tho close of the monthly business. Mr Harper had beon admonished by tho Dopartmeni that he must colloct up back taxes, or he would bo suspendod. Mr. Harper left his_rosignation and s state- mont of his dofalcation with Mr. Smith, whe took advice of a law firm in this city, and’ upon that advico ho had ropaired to Washington ta layall the facls before the authorities thoro, ‘\qm become of tho monoy he does not know. Ho was aware of & deficiency, and flually of the defalcation. Does not think Mr. Harper took away much money. Mr, Smith was oxamined a8 to paymonts of monoy which ho had made on account of the pri- ¥ate indebtedncss of Hnflur subsoquent to Harpor loaving tho olty. ese paymonts wore mado with Govornment funds amounting to about 11,000, This was done in purauance of instructions of Harper. The examination of Smith Iasted nearly all dln,y. but the main faots elioited aro as given above. Mr. Wilson called Mr. Yaryan. This gentle- man had been sont out to examine Mr. Harper's nccounts in July, and after thoroughly doiug 80 had reportod them all right to the Depariment. In his explanation as to how Lio failed to detect 8o laring a doficionoy as that which thon oxisted, En said ho had examined the books and found they showed large suns due from cortain dise tillers at Pokin, about sufliciont in amount ta make up the doficlency. Ho, in company with Mr. Smith, repaired to Pekin, prepared to dis- {rain tho proporty of said distillers. He called on Mr. A. andsaid: *You are indebted to the Government $40,000 back taxes, and you must K?’ up or we will distrain your property." r. A, promptly ~responded: I know Towoit, but my distillory Is worth foue timos the amount, and you can tako it any time, you knov, aud 1 only nsked a littls timo, and I'll pay up.” ' They called on others, and bad like con- vereations, It now appears, however, that thess men did not owe one cont at the time, having al- roady paid oll thoy owed. In this wsy he ace counted for his obtusensss, His examination was general, rolating to the condition of the booky, which show tho defalcation to bo not far from §110,000. Mr, Josophs explains how he found the ac counts at the close of August, which is compre- honded in tho statoment of 8mith, One or two moro of the subordnates were oxamined, bul they know nothing which would throw light on the subjeot. B If this investigation stops short of going back to the hngluuln‘: of this collection district, it will fail to devolop all tha causos which led' ta tho dofalention, Justico domands that this should bedone, There {s no truth in the story of & womsn figuring the case, The rumor on which ~ my dispatch waa, basod proved, upon examination, to be groundloss, and i am told his domostio relations were in all re- sprots good, It is naserted that, if Mr. Harpor Diad let Lia friends know of hia ombarrassmont, they would haye ralsed tho monoy and paid him out, Indeod, they propose yot to dmy tho mouoy and mako good tho logs to'the Governmont, it tho aflair can be go sattled. Buporvisor Muun, to-day, relioved Harper from offico, aud appointed iu bis placa Charles R Dickinson, Deputy-Colleotor of MoLoan County. Mr. Bluford Wilson, in pursuance of directions received from Oommissioner Douglass, offered & roward of 81,000 for the apprehousion of Harpor., ‘suo Hon, J. J, Castle, brothier-in-law of Har- por, is here to-day, and says that ho left no inli- sution with his family or hia frionds ns to the place ho waa gnlng, oxcopt he told his wifo he was golng to Bpringfleld, The only intimation bho had evor givon lo auy of his family that he was embarrussod wag to his wifo, whou bo told that the distillors at Pokin owed him $30,000, and tho Government required him to sy it, an that was the oxplanation of his having to borrow 80 tuch money. 5 Judgo Trest, Col.
