Politics make strange bed- fellows, Two yoars ago tho Democrats of this Stato united with the Grangers and beat tlie Ropnblicans on School Superintendent by 30,606 majority, caried® the Legislaturo agniust them, and elected thirteen fusion mombers of Congress out of nineteen, loav- ing the Republicans but six.

This, of course, is a rea- sonnble schame and onght te he nccepted nt once by Turkey, if sho fa renlly in esrnest in her expressed desires for roform.

Brw Buriew's Massachusetts Convention atarted out by giving'the following reason for jts existence, which farnishes the only basis 1xid down for the new party movement: Waeneas, The old politleal parties offer no re. 1laf, bat are, vy the contraty, responsible for this ead’ state of things, having leginiated invariably in the interest of the few st thie expense of the many, against the interest of laud ana labor, which arn the wnources of all weslih, we call upon tho peupla to detlare thelr Independence from thesw falee guides, and atd in repaining vricelgrn nghts beguentbed 10 us by our patrivtic sires, To (hie end we invite the co-operstion of every good citf zen, and offer (he following aolutions eunuch atary of the principlen of the Nattoual-Urecnback. Tatar party of Massachuseits. T'his is an indictinent of both the oxisting partios for having logislated againat the iu- terosta of 1and and labor,—two words that must stand for the farmers and mechanics, if Bry Rorzas and his new frionds hnd hoped to make thin ndictment hold, they wonld have pointed out {n detnil wtlenst n purtion of the ustional leyisiation which had been almed agninst the intercst of the tarmers and mechanics. 'I'he fact that they ueglected to do ro wonld indicato that they bore falso witness, Uur recollection is, that all acts of national legisiadion with A direoct benring on aither of these interests ware intended to be favorable to thom; in- deed, it could soarcely be otherwise in a Congress whose wmembers dopend mainly apon thevotes of farmers and ity laboring men for their places. A few nf the most conspiouous aota mny be rocalled. First, aa'to land or farmers. Congress has the right under the Constitution to lovysa direct tax, which means a taxon Iand, but hias refrained from exercising this right be- cause such lax wonld bo roscnted as a burden upon the farmers. ‘The Govern- ment, during the War, was reduced to straits that were held to justify the most extrome mensures for raising rovenue. Men wero taxed in almost avery conceivable fashion; capital paid on rales, on income, on gross receipts, on bank circulation, and in stamps on every form of contract and paper denoting its change from hand to hand; bat, daring all theso extraordinary moasures, land was never taxed. Tho nearest the Government camo to anything of this kind was the direct tax of $20,000,000, mainly collected in shapo of offasts in bills roniered by the States for raismng and equipping troops, Tho Freo Homestead law has been tho most important logislative messure affecting Iand, and tho Butlerites will scarcoly dare ranintain thet this law has been oppressive upon the classes whom they claim to have taken under their wing. Its effect Las been to locato permanently hiindreds of thousands of families, add in proportion to the product- ive powers of the country, and prevont any combiuations for great land monopolies. ‘The farmers have not complnined of it. If Burzen hasin his mind the land-grants i railroads, it may be as well to remem- ber thnt they formed the basis for the construotion of railroads, into now, unset- tled countries, that enormously enlarged the area of production, and enabled the farmers to got their produco to market at rates which yielded them n profit; the right of pro. emption was rescrved to the peoplo, too, in case the lands were not sold off withina statod period, and the Becretary of the In. terior Lias recontly taken steps to enforce the observance of this reservation. Con. gresa, too, set wside one soction in every township for -common-school purposes, and thereby sccured the universal wloption of ng system of free schools that Roreen will not tind it popular to condewmn, Laods in large quantitiea wore also donated for the founding and support of agricultaral colloges, the objoot of which must be con- strued ua beneficial rather than ns detrimontal {0 agrionliural interests, The same view 1ust bo taken of the lib. oral annual, appropristions fur the improve. ment of rivers and harbors, justitied by the inorensed facilities thus obtained for the transportation of the erops and products of land. Fioally, the docisious of the United States SBuprome Court, kuown as the Granger decislons, confirming the night of Btate Gov- eruwents to regulnto the ratos chiarged by ‘railroad compaules, warehouses, aud other quasi-public corporations, wore certainly tavorable to tho furmesy of this conntry, Hiow fa it ubout labor? ‘The mout sweop- ing aud enormous scheiwne of special Jogisla. tiun ever conceived iu th country was udopted and hns boeu waintaived under the cluim of protecting the workingmen of the United States against the * pauper la.

Burzen'’s platform domands the abolition of gold and rilver as standards of value. Wae submit to tho thoughtful mind of any unprejudicod man the proposition, Iow can there be any systom of paper curroncy which docs not neccessnrily, and despite all expedi- onts, rest on coin money ? Our poople exporl of their own productions about $700,000,000 anuually, and impert an svorags sufficient to moke tho whole foreign trade in ronud figures twelve hundred millions of dollars. What we export we scll abroad at the world's prices, in the world's -monoy, which is coin. It is' fmmaterial what wo may- compnte tho proporty at in our curronoy; wo geb preocisely what the world will givo for it in doin, ‘I'his coin valne of oxports in foraign lauds fixes the domestio price of tho same commodities in coin, 'We buy what we import, snd wo pay for it at ‘coin prices. Wo convert our paper through the gold brokers into coin with which we buy, and we convert tho coin which wo gat for what we sell, through the gold brokers, into paper. In both cases wa buy and scll st coin prices, nsing onr paper, not at iis fnco valns, but at such value ns the gold brokers will giva for It in coln, Tho valaue of all commoditios, therefore, bought and solil have practieally boen bought and sold at thoir coin valuo ; the dopredlation of the +paper boing ndded wheu the transactions were in paper; the pricos in paper rising or falling from day to day and hour to hour by thechanges in tho valuo of tho pnperas an oxchange for coin, Thore must be somo standerds,—the pound, the yord, and the dollar. As the prica of all wo soll is fixed by tho amount of coin wo can. got' therefor, it is impossible to fix a valne thercon moasured by any other standard of vulne.

It follows aqually that the five fiat dollars can only be exchanged for tho 31 in coin. o that, after all, and dospite all the Dutlerism dovices to havo a natlonal monetary eystem based upon falth paper to the oxcluslon of coin, sll business transaotions are made upon coin values, Itis Impossible to get rid uf that messuromont. & . ‘The only possible mode in which wo can oxclude coln values from governing in all commorelal trgusactions, no matter what tho form of the money msy bo, is that, in the wame law which makes this flat money a legal-tonder in paymout of debts, 1t be made also & legal-tender in oxchange for land, Louses, labor, services, and all commnodities, at fixed prices. Thus, that a flat note ahall bo a legal-tonder in payment for one dollar of dabt, aud a legal-tendar also in ex- change for one day's ordinary labor; that the prico of skilled labor, in fist money, be also fixed and irrevocable; and that the ratos of houso-ront, the prices of moats and brend, of corn, whealy flour, tobacoo, cotton, and all kinds of cloths asid leather goods,'bo frxed by law, independent of supply aud demand, sbundance or scarcity ; and that the Hat money be made logul-tender nt parein ex- chango for all these things ot fixod prices, under pain of death or, imprisonment in the Pouitentiary, Thus, sand thus only, can the systom of *idiotic” coin values ovor be eradicated, and thus only csn we have a purely originel monetary system of fixed values, Is this really what tho Massachu. getts plan means ?

INTRODUCTION UF THE CAUCUS IN EN- QLAND. ‘Tho Liberal party in England has made a now doparture in tho introduotion of the Amerioan caucus, or what sooma very similar to it, into ita political system. What is known here as *** the machine” is known ovor thero as tho ¢ Birmingham system,” principally bocause it originated there and Decansa one of its most zoalous dofondors is Mr. Cmaxnrzrraty, the Liberal member of Parlinment from that city, and it has gained additionnl prestige from its quasi indorse- ment by Mr, GuapstoNe. Undar the opern- tions of tho system every town or borough ia divided into a cortaln number of wards, and each of theso wards oleots o cortain number of members of n Oentral Committes, This Committes takes ontire control of the party interests, nominates the candidntes, snd, instead of preparing o general platform npon which they aro to stand, dictatos to thom after elce tion ns to the political seutiments of their conatitnoncy and tho course thoy ars to pur. sue in Parllament upon sll public questiona. ‘The oporatiog of tho Birmingham system is not always emooth. Now and then it meets with a man who will not conform to ita diotation. Onesuch s Mr. Wirttax E. Fonsrxn, the Libernl wmember for Bradford, At the last election tho machine was not completely uuder’ way, and when Mr, For- xTER ontered upon the canvass the Commit- teo only wont 0 far ns to discipline him for bis action upon & cortaln mensure which was distastetul to them, BIr, ForsTxs, howaver, proved recalcitrant, set tho Committeo at de- fnge, aud got himsel! elected by the ald of tho "ories. As thore is now a prospect of another goneral eleotion before spring, the Committeu have taken time by the forelock augl notified Mr. Foneten ho can have the renomination if ho will accopt Rule XV., which binds the candidate to submit himself in everything pertaining to his candl- dature and to hly action after elec- tion to the decisions of the Commit. teo. 'To this Mr. Fqusten bas roplied with o very emplatic aud vigorous declaration of independenco. Ho sots the machine at deflance, and notifles the Committee that he ix entitled to hiv seat- with or without thoir approval, and that Lo will not sccopt Rale XV. under any olrcumstances. Tt is probable that an old member like Br. Fonster, who isas sure of his aoat, for instance, as Mr, Gaurierp in tho Ninoteontt Obio, may sot the wmchine at deflaucs, but younger politicians and new aspirunts for Parhament will bave to submit os' meet the fata of the bull in his enconuter with the locomotive, ‘fhe Birmivghaw spatew, lowover, bus not been adopted without very vigorous op- position from many qusrters, and, now that it is Iu operation, it iw exposed to s ranning fire of criticien on all gides. The English re- views bavo asusiled it, and the Londou Z'imes of o receut date, in discussing it, said : The excluded minoritics drup sway from paliti- cal life; orguniaxtl fosies wore and mors 8 thuag 1a Ll 3 o gapizaiion of & spllar ‘caaracter on the other the pheouwenon is ayeedily produced of 1wo coutending cowmitievs that bavy cowe 1010 uxinls cuce nu one quite knuws bow strugyling for the viciory, aud Inthe tyranoy of taeir struggle drase ging uown the couditions 8 poiltical iife to tbe standard of the meancal, .
