There is no excuse, for the brutal and demoralizing excitement of the dog pit, ‘Address of General Butler on the Political (Bituation and Our Relations with Eng- land. ‘The redonbtable General Benjamin F. But- delivered an address at the Muslo Hall, » yesterday, on the present relations of in this country, the Alabama’ claims, fhe American fisheries, and the policy to be by the republican party on these questions, The address will be found pub- in another part of this paper. What- may be thought of the logio of General ’d argument every one must admit that address covers ground enough, It looks Very much like a newly constructed platform for ‘the republican party. Looking, too, at ithe prominence and ambition of General But- and at the fact that he has lately been to 8 on to confer with the President, it iiey be inferred that this platform has the vengorsement of General Grant, and that it rill be brought before the republican party in Gengress eye the coming session. Gen- eral Butler's visit to Washington and the pub- fcation of this address on the heel of the lemocratio gains at the late elections lead us ‘to believe that it embodies the political pro- gramme to be submitted to the republican party this winter, General Butler commences by showing that ‘the war abrogated old party distinctions and Assues, except, as he assumes, that the demo- eratio party still adheres to the dogma “‘of the rights of the States as corporations in contra- Alstinction to the rights of the federal Union Sa national government.” Without disputing this assumption we may say that we think the ‘General draws the argument too strongly wgainst the democrats. As we understand it wee fthe democrats now accept the results of the jwar and the consequent strengthening of the federal powers of the government as an accom ed fact no 1 elated Weal ithe mission of the republican party at home is jended, that it has exhausted the old slavery and war issues, that its record is of the past #lone, and that there is nothing left save to warner the gleanings of the harvest that is ver. General Butler is a careful reader of ‘he Heratp, evidently, for that is precisely rwhat we have been telling the republicans all along. The democratic party, he maintains, on the ther hand has dwindled into an opposition \party merely, This is partly true. But a good opposition, when there is something ten- Bible to oppose, may make a great deal of \political capital. Although the democrats fhave not yet adopted a comprehensive and \progressive platform of policy looking to the ifature, they are showing vigor and are gaining ground through their opposition and the weak- \ness and divisions of therepublicans. He says, fraly, that carping criticisms upon the admin- tion and party in power are not.« anffi- ‘sient foundation upon which a great party can wustain itself and acquire control of the gov- ‘ernment. This isa good hint for the demo- ‘rats, if they know how to profit by it. { General Butler then discusses the various ymeasures of national finance, taxation, pay- iment of the debt, free trade, and so forth, and in doing this he pays the administration a left- \handed compliment, by showing that the re- \publicans in Congress, largely assisted by Hthe democrats, opposed the policy of paying ‘off the debt so rapidly by keeping up burden- ome taxation. Mr. Boutwell will certainly mot thank him for this part of his address; nor ‘will the President, perhaps; for both lay great istress on the enormous income of the Treasury |’ jand the great reduction of the debt. General {Butler does not favor the policy of taxing so theavily the present generation, and in this, as he claiits, he has the support of the democrats against the administration. But the main feature of the whole of his ar- gument is thet the republicans must have new {issues to sustain themselves in power, and ‘here he advocates annexation as a capital Jank in the new platform of the party. He ‘begins with St. Domingo, and in this chimes ‘in with the course General Grant has taken, He claims that St. Domingo is the ‘‘priceless {jewel of the sea” in the Antilles, He is, in act, for Americans ruling all the West Indies. ut what of Cuba, an island in wealth, Yin production, in population, in all the jpreat railroad and other improvements pf modern progress, in the finest bors, and of the first importance geographical position right at our doors the gates of our commerce? What of this ficent island, worth all the other islands the West Indies put together, which has over two years in the throes of revolution Yepublican freedom? What has the ad- tion and republican party done for ? Here is a practionl and a live ques- ion, involving progress, annexaticn and destiny. The settlement of our difficulties with Ing- relative to the Alabama claims, the ies, intercourse with the berdering colo- and boundary disputes, are the principal of General Butler’s discourse. He is satisfied with a mere money compensation the Alabama depredations, and, lumping all grievances together, intimates that the sur- of the American colonies, either as in- lependent States in the first instance, or to ‘the United States, by Great Brifain, would be the proper settlement, and if England will not ‘consent to this or some such large ‘pompensation for the wrong she did us end for the sake of future friendship the General recommends a bold retalia- tory policy—a policy of non-intercourse. He thinks this would rally the country to the republican party and capture all the anti-Eng- lish and [rish voters. This is, doubtless, a rather startling programme. It must not be lost sight of, however, that General Butler's Sweeping non-intercourse policy, as all the reat, looks chiefly or only to the interest of the manufacturers and fishermen of New England. He was speaking to a Massachusetts audience, and the people of that State might be pleased } Springfield Repudiican, left the Brovoort House last with such a prospect, But the great commer- clal North and agricultural West and: South might say something different, No doubt a bold policy on the part of the government for the settlement of our difficulties with England would be acceptable to the American people, but they are not prepared to sacrifice their cemmerce and the market for thelr produo- tions for the purpose of benefiting the manu- facturers of New England unless the honor of the nation be in question, This mew idea of such a stupendous scheme of protection will hardly take with the American people, In conclusion, General Butler talks in a bellige- rent strain, but evidently his mind is all the time en New England and her interests. His address is a stirring political one, but is neither logical in argument nor practicable in policy. Personal Intelligence. Senator R. E.
