Tip IH'inocrrtiic Conventions. From the if. Y. Tritium. "lientorftUoua," say? a philosophic otnerver, 'are the woihI of goverumnuta." Tliey are naturally rapaiil'iu, veugH'ul, bitter, impla cable. The French of 1814-15, who suddenly dipcovereil that they for twuy yoars had been subjects ol hta Mnji-Hty Louis XV III the Dcsirrd) without kuowing it, were mate profoundly to realize the truth of the remark above quoted. When Legitimist writers talked of the brilliant victories won by hie (at'ore.a'd) Majesty's annief, between the years 17!)i au4 1812, under the commaud of Ueneral Hona parte, their feelings of indignation and of de rision struggled desperately for ascendaney. The Democratic party (juarrelle 1, divided, ail threw away the l'renideuoy in 18U0. No other party did half bo much towards elfotiug its overthrow as itself. It" still hel t the Su preme Court and both. Houses of the inooming Congress; by Sfccesniou and rebellion, itmiian dered these also. That seoessiou, that R-ibel-lion, were pre-emlneutly tin work of JMiiiij cratio politicians. Those of the South deii-td the authority and sought to destroy the unity of the republic; thor-o of the North pledget themselves to resist "coercion" unto blool, but didn't. The spiiit remained willing, but the flt-sh was weak, lleuce, secession aud rebellion, after a long, desperate, costly, bloody struggle, were crutdied out. The Kepublicans were but two lifths of the American people in liju'O. They elected their l'resident through the Democratic split, engi neered by the Southern Democracy on pur pose that they should eleot him. Congress was made over to them by the withdrawal of the Southern Democrats. The Supreme Court, so far as it became Republican at all, was like wise made over to them by the Rebellion. l'resident Lincoln was eminently a man of Feace. The Democracy allowed him but this alternative "Fight, or break your iu augural oath to exeoute faithfully the duties of the Presidential office." Thc-y backed hira to the wall, aud, by the bombardment of Fort duui ter, compelled him to light. Slavery was the inciting, overruling ciuse of secession. Slavery said to the Union, ")n. of us must die 1" whereupon President Lin coln, standing for the Union, said, "Then- it shall be Slavery 1" aud his word was ulti mately made good. Lefore the war began, Horatio Seymour assailed the Republicans on suspicion that they would not tamely submit to disunion as bitterly as he did yesterday, lie accused tuta as recklessly in IStll as he does in 18 JS. lie held them then responsible for the conse quences of Secession aud Rebellion; aud he does bo to-day. Rivers of blood have been shed, mountains of debt have been piled up; and he charges it all, not to tho.se who assailed, but to those who upheld, the Union. He de clared that we could never subdue what he called the South; but we did. lie predicted that we would bankrupt the Treasury and confiscate the property of our people; but the farms aud houses tint he pro nounced mortgaged for more than their value by the war debt are worth as much coin to-day as they were when his party quarreled itself out of power. Aud every dollar of the debt, every drop of the blood, he would score up to our count, is righteously chargeable to the Other, lie talks to-day as though he had been an open instead of a covert traitor throughout our great struggle. If it was right to main tain the Union by war, then the cost of that war is justly chargeable to those who souyut to destroy the Union. We never heard of a speech by Seymour during the war that was not chuckled over by avowed sympathizers at the North with the Rebels; and he spoke yesterday in the same Vein to the assembled Confederate Congress men and Generals n Tammany Hall. As usual, be blamed the Republicans for every thing, the Rebels for nothing. It is nothing, or worse than nothing, to him that four mil lions of our countrymen whom Democracy left slaves Republican rule has set free. It is nothing, or worse, to him that no slave-chain now clanks in all our broad land. Ue prates of the debt; but he loathes the debt because it represents the means whereby slavery aud Democratic Rebellion were overthrown, lie prates of liberty and equality, but mourns over broken shackles and the shattered domi nation of caste. For the first time in our history, every man in our country enjoys the protection of equal laws; and for this Seymour regards the Republicans with an implacable hate. For, if history shall regard the last seven years as the second heroic age of our country, what can it say ot Horatio Seymour that he should not hear with a shudder f Radical System of Retrenchment. From the jy. Y. World. The Rump Congress does not scruple to vote away millions by the round Boore for the main tenance of a useless standing army; for the royal travels of a holiday navy; for the keep ing up of a rotten and corrupt breeding-school for the supply of radicalism under the guise of a Freedmen's Rureau; aud for the support of a military despotism in ten subjugated aud peacefully disposed States of the Uuiou. This money is drawn from revenues literally wrung from the sweat-earned wages of helpless tax payers, who must patiently submit to the wrong until the proper time arrives for pro tecting themselves by the ballot. They inoreased their own pay two thousaud a year, exclusive of mileage, which is drawn from the Treasury at the rate of ten cents per mile, while they pay on au average about three and a half cents. They also gave twenty per cent, extra allowance to their own clerks in both Houses; whbh brings their favoritism into conspicuous aud condemning prominence; for the department clerks whose pay they refused to increase are employed all the year round, while the Congressional clerks, who are much better paid, have from three to six months leave of absence out of every twelve. Perhaps Mr. (Jreeley can convince the people of the jnstice of this, by his prompt and irresistible logic. The barefaced hypocrisy of these professed retrenchers is unspeakably shameful, aud the country should know the facts. Take General Grant for one, whose tender conscience com pelled him to recall bis earnest recomuieuda- tion of increase to the clerks, aud use bis in Huence to prevent the allowance, now urging Increate of the aitny oilicers' pay thirty-three auu a tuiru per ceni., luuiuoing nis own pay. 'ILia aisuuguisn;a advocate of a reduced ex penditure of the publio means, who receives over $120,000 pay per annum, does not liud it Inconsistent with his avowed priuoinle on tlm Subject ta keep a squad of troops quartered near ins residence, to do nis gardening, house carpentering, eto., and to drive his owu car riage, Lis wife's carriage, and his children's caniage about the streets of the national capi tal, all of which troops are paid out ot the people s money lor military duty. These men do not hesitate to sqnan lor one or two hundred millions annually fur party advancenieut, directly and indirectly.

Tinus Although Senator Elmuuds' resolution has bu n properly dropped, we trust that Congresi will not adjourn until it has made provision tor participation by the South in the Presi dential election. Mr. Trumbull's argument against a measure conferring Tijion Congress a discietionary power to count er omit the votes of Southern States is unassailable. Nothing whatever should be left to the opi nion or will of those whose political position exposes them always to the suspicion of par tiality. The right of the reconstructed States to stand on the looting of other States In re gard to electoral votes is incoutestibU, and no thing sllVcting it should be subject to partisan iutei tereLce. It is not more nec essary to guir 1 against fiaudiu the case of Arkansas, Florida, Noith Carolina, or arty other State which miy perfect its reorganization, than iu the case of ew Jerpey, or New York; and the authority would be dangerous which contemplated any otLer coj, Urgency. Hence the undesirable nets of Mr. Kduiunds' resolution. The object of its promoter may have beeu good, but it was too ppparently liable to abuse to be adopted with safety. Congress cannot a(l')rd to encounter the imputation of tampering with the Presidential vote. Whatever else partisanship may have achieved or attempted, let it be rigidly excluded from the Electoral College. The integrity of the ballot-box is of greater importance than the triumph or defeat of sny candidate. We agree with the Wthat Congress ought not to separate until it lias admitted to the Unfon every Southern State which complies with the terms of the Reconstruction acts. No object to be pained by an early adjournment compaies in importance with the object to be Ferved byperfect'u the Union previous to the election lor the Piesi It ncy. How the States may possibly vi.te is not a mjtt-ir for conside ration. The main poii.t to be attained is, that tbey shall take part, in due form, in au elec tion which may be thus i)i,de the means of signalizing thtir restor-uiou to th fellowship ot the Union. The accomplishment of this result is worth the brief ex-eutiou of the ses sion which it would probably invo've. Hut whether Congre.-s fiui-h its work, or adjourn, leaving it unfinished, it will expose itself to grave animadversion if it leave the question of counting votes open for future Settlement. On every ground of propriety aud right, that question s-hoald be decided authori tatively before the election. Lrt tun country understand what Stale? will participate iu the election, and what States will be excluded by default ? A joint resolution, passed on the eve of adjournment, miy define the standing of btates wnicu, neing still subject to military or provisional government, will hare no claim to recognition in the counting of electoral votes. It is neither just nor expedient to expose a question so important aud yet so delicate to tne cliances of partisan controversy. The Convention in a Fo A Urairl Conor uinny i.osi. From the N. Y. IltrulU. The country has for some mouths past looked forward with interest and anxiety to the assembling of the Democratic National Convention. It has been universally regarded as au event oi no ordinary importance. The people, weary of radical misrule, have be sought the organized Democracy to cast aside all dead issues, to accept the lessons of the war, and with a broad and comprehensive platform and a fitting candidate to unite all the elements of opposition aud rescue the country from the hands of the Jacobins and jobbers of Congress who have run riot in Washington for the past two years Never did a party enjoy a more favorable opportunity to recover its lost ground and to secure political supremacy for the next quar ter ot a century, and never was good fortune in greater danger ot being recklessly thrown away. The Convention has now been in ses sion in this city for two days, and enough is Known ot its action to render it almost certain that its strength will be frittered away through" the filly and blunders of its leaders, and that instead of coming up to the standard of publio expectation it is doomed to take rank with the worst of those narrow-minded Copperhead gatherings that during the war left the Demo cracy in a helpless minority in every State of tne Union. Let us look for a moment at the facts. Two years ago Congress perfected what is known as the fourteenth amendment to the Constitu tion, leaving to the States the right to control the question of suffrage, but providing that where any portion of the people shall be de I arrtd from voting on account of race or color the persons thus disfranchised bhall be ex eluded from enumeration in calculating the tiatis ot representation. Tne Jlcralil predictel lor such a policy the'nuiversal approval of the . people, and upon the i.-sue of the amendment as a full and final settlement-of the question of reconstruction the Republicans swept the country from Maine to California, elect ing every Governor and nearly every Congressman throughout the loyal States. Hollman and his Tammany backers in this Sttate eet themselves up iu opposition to this reconstruction policy and t-tillered a disas trous defeat Lut the .lacabin leaders, as soon as they had i-ecuied power, di.-regaided the emphatic popular verdict aud inaugurated an entirely new and revolutionary policy, usurping the fuuetious of the Executive, raising the General of the Army into a mili taiy de?pot, rtlliug the Southern States by the bayonet, forcing up m them unqualiiU l ugro suil'rage, di&fraiiciitMug white eiii.r-ns, aud finally destroying the authority of the Su preme Court, ia order that the judicial arm might not be Ftrt-tched over the Constitution to shield it from these revolutionary assaults. The country grew disgusted a:id alarmed at this bad btith and violence on the pr.rt of the radical Congress, and the leult was the breaking dowu of the I fge majorities of lvilj in Stale alter State, the redemption of Con necticut, Pennsylvania, and Caliioruia, and finally the overwhelming Hood iu New York which swept the r.idioals from power aud buried them uudir Ih'.y thousand Ddinouratiu majority. This j owe) fnl conservative reaction turnel hopefully to the uiv BLi.'.rd bemooracy as the iiii lni.i of a movement iu the p tvat Presideti b.l ttmgf.le that Fbould complete the work coinineuce ast faii ali five peace to the natiou. lint it d, mauded a su iMtautial re fi'ini - h : -tt l.-m.-ut of all the vexed que. tl( '" ' ' q.evl- ;. ii- n and iiig' i-rheadism, ai.'l h i i tiou i .' ,r,'-.in . .tion ot theoppisi i a-ii .,! x i .- .oguitiou of the war snd of the (treat changes it had brought in IU train. Kspeoially in New York did the splen did conservative majority of fifty thouami claim consideration; aud from the fact that the Democratic leaders aud their organs gave coun tenance and support to the Chase movement it was believed that they were aroused to the importance of the occasion. But It seems that th popular cry was only echoed by them as a means of killing off Penlleton, and that while shouting for Chase they were, as usual, pro paring the way for the success of their owu selfish intrigues. It is acknowledged that New York, with her commanding iutlueuce, her large electoral vote, her great wealth, aud her magnificent revolution of 1807, had only to declare boldly iu favor of this Chase movement fiom the start to control the action of the Con vention and carry the conservative bAnu'?r to victory. Her delegates, actuated by personal views and quarrelling among themselves, have sacrificed all their power, and whatever the result may be, the responsibility lies at their doors. The truth is, the New Y'ork Democracy hive broken laith with the conservative masses, and have shown themselves to be without in telligence to gra.'.p the situation or courage to vindicate their own positiou. li.iginuiiig with Holl'man, and continuing on'through Seymour and lielmout down to poor Church, they are all ignoiant of the great lessons of the past eight years, butting their copper heads agaiust the idea that the war was unconstitutional, that Lincoln was unconstitutional, tint Con gress is unconstitutional; and that there is nothing in strict conformity with the Consti tution except Jeff Davis, General Lee, poor Pierce anil the old DHiuo.iratio organization, embracing Tammany Hall aud the Albany Regency. These men, after playing fast and locte with Seymour, have now hit upon the expedient of nominatiug a country lawyer and Albany accouutaut as NiW York's choice for the Presidency, in place of Chief Justice Chase. Their platform, cariied la the p icket of one of their numerous candidates for Gov ernor, is as weak and wishy-washy as their candidate. 'They do not recognize the four teenth amendment, as the people detnau led tbey should, nor do they prope-ly deuounce the barbarism, brutality, and degradation of regro political and social equality in the Southern States. They are bold only in cheat ing and rascality and timid where courage is a virtue. The result will be that alter ex posing their own weakness and cowardice tbey will become parties to a platform as un meaning as that ot the mongrel Chicago C in vention, and to a noniiuatiou that will be mberably beaten iu every State iu the Union. Not a candidate they have nj.uied stands a chance of success, and the probability is that whatever their action may be, Judge Chase wi'l still be in the field, with a complete con serviitive ticket iu every Stte. They vill thus nn' only be compelled to submit to the rule ot Grant and the radicals for four years to come, but will lose the State spoils, for which alone some of them are playing. Iu fact, tinless they nominate Chase they may as well abandon politics as a profession, break up thc-ir organization, and make up their minds' to go to work and earn au honest living dining the rest of their days.
