To block this gime und, at the same time, “eheck, if possible, the almost overwhelming growth of Butlorism among the ravk and file the Executive Commitiee of the State Central Committes hela a .gecret meeting, the resnis of which was the publica- tion Le-day of the fellowing orver: It ts voted that in the opinion of the Execntive Committee of the Democratic State Committee, ander the call for the State Convention, po person known by his ucts or declared opinions to be im tavor of nominating, through the Democratic Convention, us candidate tor Governor or for any State officer a reon Who Is not a recoguized member of the demo- eratic party is entitled to sit or vote in the Demo- ‘eratic State Convention. GODFREY MORSE, Seeretary. BUTLES MEN INDIGNANT. ‘This modest little paragraph acted like @ lighted match ina powder magazine. The delegates olected ‘at the Boston democratic caucuses, a few nights ago, ere largoly in faxor of Butler, and they have peen going around town to-day with threats on their lips and fire in their eyes, They regard the orderas a Piece of impertinent presumption on the part of a little coterie of high toned democrats who have always worked for the biue blood aristecracy of Bea- con Hill, and have shown themselves ready to eave their party whenever a popular movement takes place. They, however, in the lupguage of the indig- want Butlor men, can no longer do this, Tbe people ‘Wwust be heard this year. PERLING OF THE STRAIGHT OUTERS. Tbe straight democrats look upon the card as the only thing that could save the party organization. They deprecate the necessity of such a step and are not sure but that it is a questionable proceeding at this time, but now that it is out they will ‘back it up, The HERALD Correspondent spent threo hours this afternoon in search of Geveral Butler, but he was out olreach, He is engaged on a case tn the Supreme Court, and got through with his day’s labor just in ‘time to catch the train for Lowel). When he arrived mt home he refused to see anybody, be bad private Dusiness to attend to, EXPRESSION OF A BUTLER MANAGER, Failing 19 getting the Geueral’s opinion of wis novel proceeding your correspondent called en one of she coniidential, agents or managers of the Butler campaign in this city, and bad a brief interview with Bim. In answer to one or two questions this gentie- an said that the General had anticipated such a step, fio was not ot all disturbed by the action of tho Executive Commitee, because ho did not recognize Sheir authority to govern the action of over one thou- es free citizeus and voters of Massachusetts who ould go to Worcester to deliverate on the best man and ‘best platform to put forward in thecampaign agate tate abuses and oflicial corruption, These men, paid, bavo, in years goue by, voted for and nomi Cbaries Sumner, Frank Bird and Char! Francis Adazus for the ollice of Governor, and then regarded is as legitimate, What has come over the spirit of their dream? Is it democratic to jorestall the action of a cenvention by putting barriers in the way of a duir and honest vote? ‘Ihe whole matter may be ‘eummod up tn this:—ihe democratic leaders in Maswa- ‘chusotts are of the old Bourbon stripe, They pever adopt aay principle or issue ull everybody else ig tired of it. These eminently respectable gentlemen ave expressed their determination to bolt in case Butler is nommated, We will give them a chance, Yor we wall carry that convention, or, 1f our delegates Bro rotused admission, wo will clear tbe Ball, leaving Mr. Abbott with acorporal’s guard, not enough to constitute a board of ollicers without doabling up. VISWS OF A MEMBER OF THR COMMITTEE. Mr, Avery, chairmau of the State Central Commit- tee, suid this afternoon that he thoroughly agroed with the sentiment expressed in the commuittee’s order. Wuen asked what tho difference was between the nomi- pation of Sumner, Bird and Adams, and the possible Momtoation of Butler trom a democratic point of View, he said that in the year when these men wore ouinated the call was different from theone issued bis year. Then tue party invited Iiberal republicnus nd ali in favor of reform to come to the convention. ‘nis year they invited democrats only, Besiaes, these Men stepped “squarely on the party platform and adopted its provisions, whereas Butler repudiates dow party and platiorm. He has abused tho rty und declared that the roason why be jolt it was because {t was secking to destroy the Unten. He gives as bis Yeason for leaving the republican party the demo- eratic policy adopted by the present administration Joward the South. Ho is in that respect worse than repubhean. He deserted the democratic party in foce and now wants to come buck because it 18 coming Into power. These views are coneurred !u by the other mem- pers of the Executive Committee, all ot wnom feel very strongly on the subject and insist that the party nut protect iseel! or tt will De ruined by t inroads of Butlerism. OvmoN OF JUDGE ALBOTT. Judge J. G. Abbott, the recognized leador of the. | again hes party in this State, said to an interviewer jus evening that be had not given the order mach Attention, but he recognized it as @ principle that Bhould govern democratic conventions.

He spoke of the ivereased importance of the situa- ton, because the candidates to bo elected are to re main in power two years instead of ono. He de pounced the extravagauce in the republican State and national administrations, acd charged upon the republican party the maintenance of sectional issues, Incompetence in political affairs, the derangement of business, oxtravagance in expenditures, unjust tariff restrictions and the increase of appropriations, The enthusiasm of the republican party of late on the question of currency and @ return to specie pay- ment, he regarded as amusing, The republican party, be said, is the sole anthor of an irredcemable paper corrency tn this country, which has caused the buet- ness community more trouble than almost anything else. He uiso denounced the manner of President Hayes’ “inception” into office, and said, in spite of his professions of civil service rotorm, never in the history of the governwent has there been so much favoritism. The President bas certainly acted as if ho believed himself a party toa great conspiracy. The voters of this country cannot forget the greatest of all tbe abuses of modern republicunism.

[BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD. ] Ocpexsnune, N. ¥., Sept. 12, 1873, Senater Blaine arrived here last evening from Maino and was enthuelastically recetved by promi- Bent rep ublicans of St. Lawrence county and became the guest ef Judge A. B. Jamos, M. C, This forencom mostof the prominent men of Northern Now York and Canada called upon bim. At eleven o’clock A. M. the party proceeded in carriages to the grand stand of the Agricultural Grounds, where fully twelve thousand people awaited tho Matae statesman. TUE ADDRESS, In bis agareds the Senator discarded at once all thoughts of agricult and preceeded to discuss the greenback issue, For one hour and fifteen minutes—mach of tho timo while rain was falliag—he hold tho closest attention of his audience, Bo gave tho history of the greenback and Justified its creation on the ground of necossity, He said when aman found bimsolt beset by u nighway robber or murderer he had a right to seize tho nearest clap or othor weapon and strike down the assailant, Betore the greenback was issued the government had issued demand notes, and the first they were pre- sented fer redemption its ability to pay was overtaxed and its paper went to protest, Government to suve itselt from coliapse and death bad to put out the green- Dack. He tilusirated the vaiue of this kind of cur- rency by showing that when there was but $150, 000,000 greenbacks issued they were worth $147,000,000 gold, When the volume greenbacks was expunded to $460,000,000 they were worth but $146,000,000 in gold, THR NATIONAL BANKS, He discussed tuily the national banking system, explaining the 8 upon Which it stands, and com- pared the value of its currency with that of State banks, which tt superseded. The old State currency had to be traded half a dozen times in going {rom Maine to St. Louis. Good counterfeits are worth more now than genuine notes on a Stute bank, He prono’nced the notes of our national banks as well Tecelved as avy currency in the world, not excopting those of Great Britnin. TAXATION ON BONDS, To thegreenbacker’scry, ‘‘Tax government bonde,’’ he said government bonds were us well tuxed us uny State or municipal boods. Many towns borrow money on condition that thoir bonds sball not be tuxed. They get money at the lowest rate of interest thereby. The principle is the same with are taxed in advance in tbe lower rai paid. Now the Dational debt 1s being funded at foar per cent interest. England is the only country that can go one better. Her debt is funded at three per cent, Our low of interest would be impossible if the bonds wero taxed. Give apy State authority to tax government bonds and you give It power to ruin the credit yh government. Forty-five miilious have beon si the-government by tunding the debt at lower rat ‘This.1s 1m reality a direet tax to that oxtent, When the bonds are subject to taxation seven per cent 1D- terest is demauded, and then nine-tenths of them escape taxation. Hive years from to-day there will not be a government bond in existence drawing more than.tour aud a balf per cent. NEED FOR REST. He-tated that what the country needs most is rest. The present ngitution ts hurtiul, A letting alone will do the most good. The people are capable of seiting the currency question correctly if they aro not inier- fered with. ‘The daogor lies in its being made tho football ef politicians and fanatics. P VOR THE CSNADIANS, Mavy Canadians wero present, ava Mr, Blaine called their attention tothe fact that fu gaining her own in- dependence the United Stutes made Canuda and every otuer EngWsh colony from Labrador to Van Diemaa’s Land free, Had we beon as free at the time of the revolutionas Canada is sow there would have been no revolt. Jo concluded by eulogizing the English speaking people. At tbo time of our revolution there were only 18,000,000 in the world; now 100,000,000 speak that Longue. The time will’come wi they will overshadow the world with the progress of liberty and civilization.

It was well enough understood that money did not grow fike a trait fur tho government to ptuck when ripe; it allcame out of the people's pockets, and therefore it it required $600,0000,000 or $700,000,000 annually to carry on the gov- ernment, the issuing of this amount of currency «id ‘nment owed to the 1d to the government, meant monoy might permitted to for or sixty cents for hundred cents on the dollar; they wanted forty inches to the yard.
