Political 91ms of tbe Times and the Phila
delphia Convention.
From ike Herald.
The polittcal elements throughout the country
begin to show signs of great aeitatLin, and
the approaching Congressional elections promise
to bo ry exciting. All panics see the Import
ance of these elections. The radical party sees
that If it be debated then it will sink into
obscurity, never to attain power again. No
thing but the remrmbiance of its unprincipled,
vicious, and corrupt conduct could ssve It froai
oblivion; tor never before did a party exhibit
such a lan.eLtubie want of statesmanship
Dreading the tat e which threatens it, this party
is making and will make tho most determined
effort to prolong its existence. Its lear and
agony are seen in the violent outbursts ot pas
nion tn Congress and in caucuses against the
President and all who oppoe it
The old Democratic parly rises airaln with a
hope of de eating tbe radicals and re-en tanl mo
iufi its power. It is unwilling to Hive up its
name or organization, notwiihsiandm'r tbe load
of odium thxt weighs upou tbat name. Line
tbe old Bourbon dynasty, it learns nothing and
forgets nothing:. It doet not appear to umter
stand that we have pased through an extraor
dinary revolution, that old political dogmas and
is-'ues are dead, that tbere are new and ereut
living issues to be met, and tbat the people are
anxiously looking lor au organization w.tu a
new DHtue and new lradern. The Democrats
foolishly want to use the new political elements
to patch op their worn out aud odious party.
Besides these parties there are tbe floating
conservative element which have aeourated
from them, or which desire to separate irom
them, and a large portion of the Americuu
people who are looking jut (or some place of rest,
lor some patriotic aud new organization to which,
they can go. We have yet to see how this fer
mentation will end how these political elements
-will crystallize.
Tne Philadelphia Convention might do some
thing towards loiming a powertul conservative
parvy, it tbe men wno get it up aud who wilt
inset there should act wisely. We contes, how
ever, tbat while we wish to say an encouraging
word lor It, we are not ithout fear. We are
afraid the old selbsh and scheming politicians
and old party organization will get the control
and turn it to their own account, without any
regard to the Interests of theeouniry. We hope
our tear may not be realized. At all eveuts it is
worth while to make au eilort to bring aoout a
better state ot things, lor tbe radical party in
power has biought tbe country to a dreadfully
corrupt and revolutionary condition.
In making an eiion to crystallize the conser
van ve elements 01 the country into a partv, the
leaders have this advantage, tbat tho principles
upon which parties stand and party lines are
now well defined. The hypocrisy which covered
up the lost Congressional elections is now un
marked. Then the radicals were as bitteily
opposed to the reconstruction policy o Presi
dent Johnson as they are now, but they dared
Dot say bo. To have taken the ground against
the administration then whicii they have 6ince
onld have lead to their deieat, and thev kne
it. The President has not changed; he" standi
now precisely where he stoou then. Nor have
they changed; they were simply elected under
laLse protcube-'. Tney cheated tbe people most
shamefully. The mast is now torn away, and
tbey cannot go to the elections again proiesring
to be with the President, for during the whole
of the last session tbey made war on his policy,
and on bim personally. The breaking-up ot
the Cabinet and retirement of the radicals troin
it, together with the late bitterly hostile cau
cuses, will open theejesot the peoole to the
issue made. Deception 13 no lonser possible as
to the wide ditlereuce between Mr. Johuson's
consistent aiii conservative policy and the
revolutionary Jacobin policy of the radicals.
These are ttrlkmsr facts which the Philadel
phia Convention uvght use with great eil'ect.
But in order to make that convention of service
to the country, it ought to have the wiaest
representative character possible. It ouirht not
to be oomposed ot sell-constituted delegates,
and these tbe old political hack3 aud men of
objectionable antecedents. Such men will cer
tainly creep in, it they can, to serve their own
purpose. If they should get in and control the
convention, tbat would be fatal to the hiiher
object in view. Publio meetings should be held
throughout the country without delav, and the
best and ablest citizens be chosen as delegates.
Let the people have a direct voice in the matter,
and let the delr gauss come Iresh from the people.
There ia not much time in which to do tti, it is
true, but still e roething can be done. Above
all, we advise the Southerners not to send any
delegates who are obnoxiously tainted bv the
Rebellion. Their own good sense ought to
make them prudent iu this respect. The radi
cals win se.zo every pretext to assail and break
down the convention, and this ought to bo a
autlicient warains.
Tbe Philadelphia Convention may have a great
moral effect upon the country. It will not meet
to make nominations lor oilice, as some may
suppose; it will be simply a gathering ef men
from all sections to deliberate upon the affairs
ot the country, and to lav down a plattorm of
principles. What objection can there be to
this? Why shoul 1 not tLe citizens ot tbe North
and the ISoutb, the people ol all parts ol our
reunited country, meet toire:her tor this pur
pose 1 The radicals will not let the Southern
ItopreMmtatives meet in Congress; will it not be
well, then, to meet in convention f More than
live years the people of the two sections have
been estranged, and thev dcire to be reunited
and to forget these years" ot tcrr.ble trouble and
estrangement. What patriot, what 1 ver of his
country does not desire to see harmony restored ?
As a disunion radical Congress refuses to bring
the North and the South together, we certainly
think tbe next best thing is a spontaneous con
vention ol delegates representing both sections.
It can do no barm, and may have the best moral
effoot.
But what can the convention do beyond meet
ing to interchange views? To be most eiticient
it ought to have some direct object or aim. It
ought to direct its attention immediately and
specially to the Coneressional elections to take
place in tbe tall. How much as regards the
Juture of this country is involved in these elec
tions! 'Tbe convention should do all it can
through widespread political organizations to
deieat the radicals; but it ought especially to
take up tne corrupt and destructive legislation
I Congress aud lay that belore tho people. An
able and dear analysis ol this mould De made
In such a manner that all may easily understand
It. and then it should be made a campaign docu
ment to bo sent into every house.
Never was a party more vulnerable to attack
than this ranical party. The reiUBal to restore
the Union, the iniamous Tariff bill, tho Internal
Itevenue bill, the Freedmen's Bureau bill, tbe
national bank system, and a hundred legislative
lobs tbat burdeu the neonln witn lmnosts aud
taxes, and squander the public money these
are fruitful Ibe.inca tlikt wnnlrl nrniiifln the
country. We do not waut tbe mere assertion of
c.nu political aotrmuH, but live issues, to be laid
beiore the people. Will iha men ni f h I'hiladel-
phia Convention be equal to the Crisis ? They
have a tine opportunity. Wo shall see whether
they will show tne necessary patriotism, ability,
uu vigor.
Tbe New Torr MinJstiy in England.
From the Timet.
1 Alter a laborious and continued effort, exteni
log over nearly two full weeks, Lord Derby has
made up a Cabinet wblch baa received the
formal approval of the Queen. The labor seems
to have been completed on the eve of the 4th
of Jaly." But as tbe marriage of the Princess
Jlelcaa vm about to be solemnized, the grace of
THE DAILY"
representing ministerial authority on that aus
picious occasion was to remain with Lord Bus
sell and his colleagues; the new Ministry coming
into formal possession of office on Friday, the
6th ol July.
Tbere is a stick or so of now timber In this
Tory Cabinet; but it is, alter all, as purely a
Tory concern as it coulo well be. Two of Lord
Derby's old colleagues are missing in tne arrange
ment Sir Bulwer Lytton and Mr. Henley ooth
admirable administrators. Loid Carnarvon,
formerly a subordinate of Sir Bulwer's in the
Colonial Office, succeeds to tbe Chief Secretary
ship in that department, aud Mr. Uatbome
Hardy, the successor of Mr. Gladstone, at Ox
ford, comes into office, for tho first time, as the
head of the Poor Law Board, where Mr. llonley
used to preside.
The Duke ot Buckingham, better known as
tho Marquis ot Chandos in tbe Commons, gets
the post of President of the Couucil, and Sir
Stafford Nonhcote goes to the Board of Trade.
Another ol tbe younger Tory scions looms up as
Secretary ot State tor India, in the person of
Lord Cranborne. a bitter writoi lor the Quarterly
and other Tory organs. The list, then, with the
changes we have noted, stands about as fol
lows: Premier Lord Derby.
Chancellor ol the Exchequer Mr. Disraeli.
Foreign Secretary Lord Stanley.
Homo Secretary-Mr. Walpole.
Colonial Secretary Lord Carnarvon.
Secretary tor India Lord Cranborne.
Secutary ol War General Peel
F.rst Lord of the Admiralty Sir John Puk
ington. President of the Council Duke ot Bucking
bam. Privy Meal lord STalmesbwy.
Lord Chancellor Lord Chelmsford.
Lord Lieutenant ol Ireland Marquis of Aber
corn. President ol Board of Trade Sir Stafford
torthcot
Ptetidcnt 'f Poor Law Board Mr. Hardy.
There are one or two minor offices not yet
reported tilled. But the principal seats are to
bu occupied, as wo sec, by men who have no
sympathy whatever with reiortn, and whose term
ot office can be extended or snort pned at the
pleasure of those they have displucod. Thulr
temporary success will lie mainly in a steady
resolution to do nothing. With this in view,
they have put the most cautious and painstaking
niau of ihe lot Lord Stanley into the Foroiirn
Office. And it is noreible enouzh thev mav eret
through the remainder of the session wi.h com
parative ease. No one expects them to bring in
a Relorni bill; and it they steer clear ot foreiirn
complications, they can reckon on at least a si
months' lease ot power.
The Delent ot the Austrians.
From the World.
On the evening of July 2 the official paper ot
Vienna stated to the anxloiu peoploof the Impe
rial capital, that, "lor strategical reasons,'' Field
Marshal Benedck bad lound it necessary to take
up a position between Koiggratz und Joseph-
staot.
On the same dav the Kmc of Prussia arrived
at (jitscbiu, in Uohenna, ircni which central
position the Austrians had the dav before bojn
driven by the Prussian iorces under Prinze
trederic Charles; aud tho iiiucuou of the hrst
and seconi armies ot Prussia, tho army, that is,
ol Saxony or the Kibe, under Prince Frederic
Charles, and the army of Silesia, under the
Crown Prince o Prussia, was completely etlected.
In order to comprehend the full siunincanee and
bearing ot these events, the reader must en
deavor to form to himself a somewhat deduite
notion ot the country in the rival monarchies
are contending, and of the positions occupied
oy tne austrians and Prussians respectively,
belore and since the brief campaign which has
been so vigorously fought through to such im
portant results.
The Austrian province of Bohemia (once a
famous kiugdom, whose blind King John fell,
bghtiLg lor the French, at Crecy, hve hundred
3 ears a go, and lett his captured cr.-st of ostrich
leatheis, with his motto," Jen Dien," to be borne
forever since by the English Prince of Wales),
is a vast natural fortress of extraordinary
strength. Tbe lie-timer Wald Mountains on the
west, ihe Erz-gebirge and the Lausit.er-gebirue
on the north. the Kiesen-gebirge aDd other chains
ot the Sudetes on tbe east, surround it and
make the defense of its mainlines ot approach
easy to a powerful aud well-handled army.
When ihe cloud of war first gathered over
Germany, the general expectation was that
Marshal Benedeb:, holding Bohemia with
nearly or quiie three hundred thousand men,
would assume the offensive, and toat, parsing
rapidly to the north into the lriendly kingdom
ol Saxony, atd to the east into the wealthy
Prussian province of Silesia, he would drive the
war home upon the Prussians at tbe very open
ing oi the campaign. War was declared on tbe
lblh of June, and the extraordinary celerity
with which tbe Prussians threw themselves
southward, occupyiug the capital of Saxony on
the next day, and appearing m lorce upon the
Suxou nonutr oi Bouemia within the first week
ol hostilities, made the realization of all these
anticipations of an offensive Austrian campaign
more than doubtful.
It was still thought, however, to bo extremely
problematical whether the Prussians in their
turn would ventuie to become the aggressors,
and to strike at tbe neart of Bohemia.
The Prussian commanders have not loft
Europe long to vague speculation on this point.
Ten days alter the declaration of war the Au3-
tnan positrons in northern iioneinia were as
sailed at three points on the east bv the army
oi the Crown Prince, advaucing irom Silesia
through the passes of the Eiesen-gebirge, with
the lot tv and fortibed position ol (llatz as its
base of operations, and on the north and west
Dy the Army oi too i.ioc, under iTince Fre
deric Charles. In a series of engagements of
which we as yet have no lull details, but
which appear to have been unusually severe
aud hotlj contested, the Austriaus were driven
back ou the 2Utb, 27tb, add 28th of June,
upon a line of detense nearly thirty miles to
the south ot the northern lroutier ot Bo lie in iu.
Tbe advantages thus woa by the Prussians were
loiiowed up, as we now learn, with no loss ot
tinie; and on the 1st of July, less than a fortnight
irom the day ot tbe declarsuou ot war against
Austria, the two invading armies of Prussia
ciiected their (unction at ihe town of Gitschin,
which was that dav carried bv assault. The
Berlin correspondent of tne London Times,
wriiing on me z&tti ot June, alter giving a
graphic sketch of the great strength of tbe Aus
trian positions in Northern Bohemia, aud ot the
general hostility of the Czech populations in
that region to the Prussians, thus described the
general aspect ot tne military situation: "Into
such dangerous erouud tae "Prussian ooluuius
are now leeiing their way from two sides. If thev
advance they will soon lull in with the enemy
)iug in wait lor them on his chosen battle-
heius. xuo icir wiutr ot the Austrians is dis
posed between Toplitz, tbe famous watering-
place, aud tne rine. uirectty south ot Ketchen
berg, tbe centre Is supposed to find itself
eucumped nearTuruaii. Loiunitz, and Munchen-
Biutz; while tue rigui wing. Di'ginuiugat Hoheu
stadt, in Moravia, stretches all the way to
uswiecim (auscuwiu.; uuu szczaitow, on tbe
Galician borders."
The victories which carried the Prussian
eagles iuto Gitschin have rolled up and rolled
buck tbe lett wing of Marshal Beuedek's army
bes ond the Elbe and the Moldau; and driven
ibe centre back more than forty miles Irom
its positions ot Turnau and Muncheugrautz,
to s ek refuge alo behind the Elbe, between
tbe once formidable, though now compara
tively insignificant fortresses of Josepbstadt
and Kouipgralz. Gitschiu itself the reader
will find no difficulty in locating ou any
ordinary map of tbe seat of war, if be will
remember tbat it lies at a distance of uearly
sixty miles due west irom Glutz, the point
irom which the Crown Prince of Prussia moved
into Bohemia, and at a distance of about
thirty-eight miles southeast from Zittau, the
fortified depot on the Saxon frontier ot tbe
arrov of the Prussian Prince Frederick Charles.
Operating from Gitschin, tbe armies of Prussia
in tbe first days ot July, it will be seen, were
practically puttlug themselves between Marshal
Benedek aud the great city of Prague in Central
Bohemia. By Eger, in Western Bohemia, the
EVENING TELEGItATH. PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY,
Austrian commander was In communication
with the Bavarian army and the Federal forces
under Prince Charle of Bavaria, numbering in
all aiore than two hundred thousand men; and
we have as yet no light tbat can b rolied upon
as to tbe operations, actual or prospective, of
tliis formidable body, though it is knovn that
the Prussians were pressing from the Rhine
eastward, and that milltrry events ot importance
could not lone be delayed In that quarter.
But that the grand primary objocts of the
Prussian invasion of Bohemia have been accom
plished; that the two main armies ot William I
have joined their forces in victory in the hBrt
ol Northern Bohemia; aud that a terrible blow
has been struck both at ihe prestige of the Aus
trian troops and at their confidence in their
commauder-ln-chiet these things are unques
tionable. In the hrst lortnwht of the war th
Prussians have won the most serijus advan
tages, politico, geographical, and military,
over their antagonists. The Influence over
men's minds already established for the policy of
Prussia by the successful audacity and prompti
tude in action of her Prime Minister, has now
been secured for her arms bv a campaign
more sharp, short, and dec slve than has been
fought in similar circumstances, and by armies
of such magnitude aeainst a toe so formidable,
since the times of the fim Napoleon. It is a
sinking fact, wblch has already attracted atten
tion in Europe, that in these opening battles of
the German war, as in our own, actions have
been fought continuously on from one day into
another. Tbe truth is, that the exteut of the
revolution etlected by the railway in war has
not yet been fully appreciated. By reducing
the drain upon the strength of armies and
abbreviating tbe long and exhausting marches
of former times into a rapid transit by steam,
tbe railway has made it possible tor forces once
broueht iuto collision to maintain a conflict
much longer and more obstinately than of old.
Ol this truth we shall doubtiess have many
more and Mood v illustrat ions d urlng the current
summer; for these opening triumphs of tbe
Prussians, so lar from hasiening tbe close of
the stiuggle, are much morelikoly to prolong
it, to embitter it, and to extend its devastating
sweep.
A New Cabinet
From the Daily A'ews.
The resignation of the Postmaster-General is,
we hope, the prelude to a complete reorganiza
tion of tho Cabinet. Ths President has too long
been embarrassed by the presence of conflicting
elements in the Executive councils. But now
that a powerful conservative organization Is
being formed in support of his policy, it would
be a manilest inlustice uo the part of Mr. John
son to retain among his advisers men who are
the recognized tools and supporters of the op
posing faction. The radicals, through the iuflu
ence they wield by their majorities in Con
gress, have already an advantage in partisan
action that renders the concession to them of
auy attributes of strength beyond what they
are legitimately entitled tn, an act of folly
and weakness uzainst which the conservative
party nas the right to protest. The advocates of
the policy of immediate reconstruction are
laboring with an energy aud determination com
mensurate with the importance ol tbe interests
involved, and they expect, ot course, the active
uu-uperauou oi mo uniei magistrate, xhey can
not consent to the maintenance ol a nest of radi
cal sympathizers at the very citadel and centre
ot conservative action. Tbe conflict has attained
a crisis that calls lor tho observance of strict
discipline and a prompt acceptance of every
leature calculated to promote success. The
offices of trust and Influcuce al tho disposal of
tbe President should be hlle.i bv men who are
distinctly and avowedly favorable to his policy,
and reticence or equivocation ihould be regarded
In tbe same light as an unqualified expression of
hostility.
The President ha accepted the principles
enunciated in the cull for the Philadelphia Con
vention; his Cabinet should therefore be com
posed exclusively of men who can conscientiously
and unhesitatingly endorse ihose principle.
And as the purpose of the Convention is mainly
the reconstruction of the South, and the restora
tiou to the Southern State aud people ot tbe
enjoyment of their rights as members of tbe
political household, it is but equitable and
politic that that section should be represented
in tbe Cabinet. We do not call for extreme or
hazardous measures, but we believe that if one
or more Southern statesmen should bo called to
the Cabinet, it would be hailed by the masses,
North and South, as a seal upon the bond of
Union, and a confirmation oi peace and con
ciliation. Every consideration of justice, self-interest, aud
patriotism invites the people of the North to live
upon terms ol equality with those of the South;
and we are convinced that the great majority of
thr m earnestly desire such a consummation. It
is in that behalf that the elements of conserva
tive strength, through tho proposed action of
the Philadelphia Convention, are to be con
centrated. We must depend upon 8outhern
votes und Southern influence tor the realizat on
of the Inlcntions ol the Convention. Why,
then, should not representatives ot the South
astt-t in the Executive Councils while the cam
paign is being loughi? Tho National Union party
takes the ground that the National Union exists
now, in all its poll lical essence, the same as it
was betore the war. As the President has him
self indorsed that theory, he would be justified
in giving the South a voice in shaping the
policy oi tbe Administration, so far as the Exe
cutive authority has power to act in that direc
tion. There never was a time, previously to tho
nar, when the Cabinet was of a strictly North
ern composition; and if the conservatives enter
this campaign upon the principle that the rela
tive political attributes of the sections have not
been changed, there is no reason for any delay
In an equitable distribution of Cubinot positions
between the North und South, at tho bands of
an Executive who stands upon the platform ot
the Convention.
