Beem to f amino, dome fouudation for the hnpo that tbe party will, dnrii g the coming foar yearp, !1 it can do nothing elne, at least fur nish tbe country with methinglike a deount cppopilion. We are not, as our readers know, amongst the number of thoe who looked ou In ni mixed admiration at the Republican performances in Congresa since 1SU5. They wpre undoubtedly marked by many follies and absurdities. The party in power was guilty of Rome foolinh legislation; of many foolish attempts at legislation. Its leaders said a great many wild things, and for a while the control of the organization seemed to be put up at auction, the men that said the wild vet things being treated as the highest bidders. People who talked to it of reason or expe rience, of possibility or impossibility, were denounced as traitors or idiots. S3 things went on till 18U7, when undoubtedly the country was pretty well disgusted with Re publican mle, and bore it solely because of the magnitude and importance of the interests the party bad in its keepiug, and which iu no other keeping would have been safe. With the im peachment the critical point in the party for tunes was reached. The process, properly conducted, the country was perfectly willing to submit to, bvt it was not prepared for the scandals and excesses by which it in fact wai marked. However, by good luck rather thau by good management, it came out of it with out serious damage. We have no hesitation now in saying, however, that it was saved from utter ruin by the votes of the seven Senators. Whether they were corrupt or honest in their de;ition, it prevented the aooession of Mr. Wade to the Presidency and the predominance of niTi like General Butler in the councils of the Executive, and probably the nomination of Mr. Wade at Chicago. Now, there is no doubt whatever, in view of what the majorities have been at the late elections, both State and Federal, tbat the happening of either of these contingencies would have killed the party and delivered the ooantry into tie hands of the Democrats. Three or four months of the rule of Wade and Butler might have established the reign of pure "truth," but it would also have determined the country to bring tha reign to a olose at the eailiest possible momunt, and that mo ment would have been the 4th of March, 1809. These are not simple speculations of our own, nor are they things which anybody will hear at ma&s meetings; but they are things which nine out of ten thinking Republican will tell you in a private room. The party ha been saved, as we have said, first of all by the result of the impeachment process, and secondly, and proximately, by the opportunity to follow the diotat-a ot its sound and sober judgment which that result afforded the Chicago Convention. But when one compares eveu the most foolish of lhe Republican leaders to the wisest of the Democratic leaders, one begins involun-, tarily to excuse the Republican vagaries. The Democrats in Congress, to be sure, were Small; but they had nearly half the popu lation of the North at their back. They were but a handful; but they, in reality, repre Bented nearly as mauy voter3 a3 the majority. The knowledge of this fact would hav made men possessing the least skill iu their art a powerful and dreaded enemy. It could not, of course, Lave given them the victory, when beads eaoie to be counted, but it would have given their criticisms weight and edge; would have made formidable breaches in the Repub lican ranks out of doors; would have held the more reasonable and intelligent portion of the Democratic party firm in their allegiance; and Would, perhaps, only have been prevented from driving the Republicans from power by making them tenable of their danger and opening their eyes to the value of wisdom and discretion. As things went, however, the Democratic members in Cocgws during the past three years have perhaps supplied the most ooml oal and pitiable chapter in the history of legis lative bodies. Iu the first place, in their par liamentary tactics they imitated Thaddens Stevens, in acting rather like prophets who bad a message to deliver to a still-necked generation than like politicians whose busi ness it was to win meu over to their way of thinking. One would suppose, to watch their performances, their dilatory notions when the final result was perfectly clear, their bom bastic proteBts, their small parliamentary trickf, thtjr personal atta- ks, their grotesque and absurd resolutions; thoir per-iitent op position to everything good, bad, or indif - fertnt which the really good men of the Republican party advocated; their readirt-tss to It-ague with the dreg-j of the Republican party ia the prosecution of any scheme likely to embarrass the majority, no matter what its ellect might be on the nation at large; their wild and reckless ex aggerations of the really weak points iu Re publican rule; their ostentations indill'erenoe to the public credit, as if the fate of the national debt could .be anything hut a matter of the deepest importance to any inhabitant of the country; their ostentatious iodilterence to the fate of the m grots, as if the coudition, mental and moral and physical, of four mil lions of persons out of a population of ten mil lioiiu oould be a email concern to any honest and intelligent man appointed to legislate for it; their nuwilliiJgnt'i s to admit that there was any good motive whatever at the bottom of the prosecution of the war in which three hun dred tLoUfand of their own friends and neigh bora had laid down tjieir livt s in Bhort, tbe concentration of their wits and energies daring three long years on the one petty and disrepu table tat k of impeding the path of the mi jority, a tank to which tho feeblest wits and' energies were, of course, equal one would appose, we say, tbat the solo object of their constituents In pending them to Congress was to act as a kind of light cavalry and make the enemy feel uncomfortable. Their mission was, however, not to beat the Republicans in the vote, or wear them out by tilibnt-teiicg, or burpas.a iUm iu badinage, but to prttsent to the country and the world regu larly and temperately, and as ably as they could, with as little exaggeration as possible exaggeration on the part of luinoriUeH belug the equivalent of the military offense of beiuir drunk on duty that other bide of every ques tion that came up which it was naturally tbe tendency of the majority to overlook or con ceal. Hut they presented 1.0 bid- of any thing. They la, tud by tha hour. Not oue of their speeches was of ai-y ru.jre ue in t liiui dRlit'f auy point under di-cu.iau thai tKe rrackling of thorns under a po. They did not even protect freedom of de bute; they made it ridiculous. They talked so finceine them the carved them right. The discourses of their ablest man (leaving out Reverdy Johnson), Senator Doolittle, were wild statements of dou trines, both social and political, whioh every- J body knew were dying or dead, and with which there was no chance whatever of inlla encing the drift of public opinion. Their weightiest men in the House never produced an thing more formidable than dry essays on "the negro's place in nature," and one of them bad the candor to acknowledge that his essay on this subject was the composition of an obscure Ohio doctor. Their political economy was not a whit better than Thedieus Stevens', and such as it was they did not under stand it, and seldom produced it; and, when they did produce it, handled it as a savage might a gun. On the curreucy and taxa'ion they gave no evidence of posseesiujr, any fixed Views whatever. Sometimes they were for greenbacks and sometimes for gold, aud were opposed apparently to all taxation; but whether they preferred greenbacks or gold became more and more uncertain as the years rolled on. Their last proposal on the matter of ficEiice is to make tho currency as bad as possible for tbe purpose of annoying the party that suspended specie payments. lliey have now once more a cuanoe oi re taining a little respectability. They have four years in which to prepare for the next election, and during that period some of the weightiest questions in political eoououiy and mi it prudence will come before tongr4SS. They can, by a very small amount of exertion in the diseusbion of these matters, win back a considerable amount of popular contideme. Suppose they were to take up eveu one re form, and advocate it with temper, and know ledge, and discretion. They helped General Butler in deranging the plan of the Committee of Ways and Means; suppose they were to help Mr. Jeuckes in preparing the Civil Ser vice bill. This woald commit them to nothing inconsistent with the position they now hold on reconstruction, and would certainly win rrtnlar respect. Suppose, too, they were to make themselves the champions of what Bnrke calls "civil prudence" in their treatment of the Southern question, accept all accomplished facts, admit the negro's right to security as well as liberty, even while de nying bis right to vote, and denounce all outrages on him or oppressive legislation directed against him. Suppose they were to take hold of some theory ot revenue and tax ation which has some basis in facts, and de rives EOine support from human experience say hard money, or free banking, or iree trade and preach it zealously and consistently; do something, in short, to win back for Democrats the credit of thinking and reason ing. Suppose, in bhort, they were to substi tute some line of action for mere abuse of the party in power, would they not speedily win back some of their ion ground f Has any opposition ever succeeded in preserving shadow of authority or a particle of weight after it had ceased to have anything to propose or affirm, and had begun to rely wholly on negation and invective t The European Press oa our Presidential Election. From the N. T. Herald. In nothing is our growing importance as a nation seen more distinctly than in the in creasing interest which is manifested by Euro pean journalists iu tha public affairs of this country. Time was when it was far other wise. But we match on as a people with a rapid and stately step, aud the round of our footsteps command attention. Not only oan we no longer be iguored, we must be watched and studied. Our gi owing power is a source at once of wonder and of alarm. Our attention has been called afresh to this feature of the times by our recent volumi nous cable deppatcheK, in which were oon densed the sentiments of Etiglieu and French journalists on the result of our 1're.sidemial election. The claims of both parties, it is now manifest, were earnestly canvassed. Oar Democrats and Republicans have each their friends on the other fide of the Atlantic. All the more inlluential and impartial journals, both in London and Paiis, as they were pre pored lor, are now satisfied with, the result. Oie Lnglinh journal says of the defeat of the Demcciacy that "it was richly deserved" for their folly in preferring Seymour to Chase. Another lingliah journal says that "Grant has fairly wou his high rank by hard work, real devotion to his country, and Eervices which will live long in its remembranoe." The French press says that "Europe applauds the decision of there public," that "Giant is a worthy suocessor of Var;hirgton and of Adams," and that his accesskn to the Presidential chair means peace. One French journal, a little out of tune with the times, thinks it singular that the great republic of the West should have elected a soldier at a time when Europe is so anxious for peace. It would not be difficult to show that our contem porary does not thoroughly under stand the situation. We are as anxious for peaoe as Europe can be. Grant and men like Grant are the best conservers of peace, because they are alwajs well prepared for war. No man bated war more than the late Duke of Wellington. Few men are more de sirous of peace than the Emperor Napoleon. It Is the civilian, who knows nothing of war, not the soldier, who has tested its bitterness, that precipitates conflict. Iu Grant we have a man who will cultivate friendly relations with foreign powers, but who will never for get the nation's dignity. In the eyes of Kuropa the quiet and orderly maimer in which this election contest has been got over is a triumph to republican institutions. The Ballot ami the Kaoljack From the JV. Y. World. Once more unto the breeohes, dear friends, once more ! Tuesday witnessed another effort, beroiiio although ineffectual, on the part of the female of America to get her vote counted. Lucy Stone Blackwell went to the poll in Newaik, and ottered her ballot for Grant. Nay more; with force and arms the. took her mother-in-law, whom In the few years of her married life Bhe has debauched and subjugated to the voting point, thrust a radical ballot Into her aged and nerveless hand, and bore down upon the unhappy inspector of election two abreupt. Whit happened oould have been foretold. Man, proud man, dressed in a little li let authority, refused to receive this oontrl butiou to his box, and Lucy went away with her mother-in-law, lew and faint, but fearless still. Nor was this instance isolated. In another part of New Jersey, the village of Viuelaud, one Lundred and eighty-three women marched to lhe poll, one hundred and eighty with votes for Grant, aud the residuary three with votes for Seymour, and offered these sacrificial bal lots likewise upon the shrlue of the future. With that chaiming indiscretion which cha racterizes the Fex, they had confided their in tention each woman to some favored man, and the males took a truly hideous advantage of their confidence. For they provided separate receptacles for tbe votes of the fair, aud into tbeee those votes were put, the deluded de-pcs-iloi'B fondly dreaming that they had btirue effectual part in the election. Tho wretch b who thus paltered with them iu a double box and kept the word of promise to the eye but ith the future of femiainity. and soV.tered their consecrated contents to the windd. These budding aspirations so cruelly crashed must give ns pause. Let no man marvel that it was in a Demo cratic State alone that a trampled sex ould maki even an effort to ebake off the shackles of centuries. It is in the Demooralio com munities of New York and New Jersey alooe that women's rights have ever had even a promise of vindication. It was but the other day that five Roman matrons of Mount Ver r.ou, in the county of Westchester, aud almost within the shadow of the City Hall of New York, greatly daring, offered their votes to regenerate the administration of public in struction, and it is in the cou'ervative city of New York alone that any organized eflrts have ever been made either to support womw who are trving to supnoit themselves, or to lift up those who fall. And it ia because the Democracy is the party of progress, of intelli gence, aud of toleration, that, in tuose popu lations where it la strongest, women are per mitted by publio opinion to assert themselves iu ways that would excift the horror and the Lootings of the bigots of Boston aud tiij Puiri sees of Podunk. The ingratitude which the sex show?, as evinced iu the political complexion of the wo men of Vineland and of the woman of N-jwark and her mother-in-law, is also natural, l-i it not from of old true, and even a truism, that women cling closest to the meu who treat them worst T Is not the countnanco the World has given them, and the cold shoulder which tbe Jribune has turned them, a conclusive femi nine reason why they should cleave to the 'J rilum and despise the World 1 If our course had not been dictated by conbideratious far higher than mere expediency, we would have assailed them with ridicule and with invective, and they would long ago have come flocking to the obdurate bosom from which, because it yearns for them, they turn away. It ia this peculiarity of the female organism that makes ns to dread, on behalf of the Democracy, the day which shall usher in the suffrage of the sex. The conservatives of the conntry are unanimously and notoriously fond fathers, indulgent husbands, dutiful sons. Must we change all that, or must we bear to lee cnr loved ones driven by conservative kindness to the ranks where frown the horrid fronts of a Kalloch and a Howe 1 Must we Sir Paudarues of Troy become and by our si le3 wear steel? Then, radical', take all. Bat no ! It is written that Jephthah killed his one fair daughter, whom he loved passing well, rather than violate his vow. Be it ours to show that Hebrew heroism can be emulated iu this land and time, and that we too can stifle our affec tions in the caut-e of our country. We, too, will be Brutuses arid Urates. Let the household of every conservative citiztn, then, prepare itself to be transformed from a happy home into a scene of horror and of havoc. Women I you come into politics ot to bring peace, but a sword. Look to have your feelings harrowed in Fifth avenue and your heads broken in the Boweiy. Learn how sublime a thing it is to suffer and be Democratic. The tune of the weeping of women is come, and the voice of the broom stick is heard in the laud; and not many months shall elapse ere the ideal of the prophetic John Phoenix shall be practically paraphrased wherever woman nas a vote, and of every namiet it snail be true tuai All rieht, long tnroiiBh the sweet little villas Is tieurd the soft, note ol the boot jack And Hie delicate squpak of me victim, As the'e belug siiot through the window. We dislike tbe prospect, we shrink from it, we abhor it. But it is plainly our duty, and our duty we shall do. Fuss and Fury After the Elections, From (Iin y. Y. Herald. The radical organs in this city and Greeley's narrow-minded blockheads of the Loyal League are raising a great deal of fuss and fury over the result ol the election In tnis state, and are making themselves generally ridiculous by talking about contesting the election of State officers who have been chosen by twenty-five or thirty thousand majority. Greeley, who always takes the lead in such follies, declares that every State whose electoral vote is oast for beymour aud BUir has been carried by fraud or terrorism, and attributes a radical mikjoiity, wherever found, to repeaters or the hu-klux Klan. This is all balderdash, roll ticians on both sides, Republicans aud Demo crats, generally get in as many bogus votes as possible for their candidates, and we have no idea that they were any more f crupulous in the election lust over than in any other that has been held for the past quarter of a century brant has been chosen by a handsome majoiity; the people are well satisfied, and it is a paltry business for the Union Leagues to be expending their wrath upon Justice Sbandley because be worked faithfully for his party, or debating whether Pat Keenan or Dennis O'Rafierty bad one person or a dozen legistertd from his residenoe. 'J be radicals would be more profitably em ployed studying the true lesson of the elec tion. 1 he people elected Grant because they have confident' that he will secure to the na tion tbe peace for which he fought on the field of battle. They gave the State of New York to the opposition, and deprived the Republi cans of their two-thirds majority in the House of Representatives because they disapprove the violent measures and extreme policy of radicalism. The sooner Union Leagues aud Republican Congressmen understand this fact the better. The King's Friends. From the N. Y. Tribune. "The Kineis dead: Live the King !" GeEeral Ulysses S. Grant is the President elect of the United States. He was nominated for ibis office by the Republican party in Na tional Convention assembled every fctate and every Territory being fully represented, and every delegate designating General Grant as his first and only choice. Among these were msny who had hesitated to support him until ccnvinoinclv assured that he was wuu the fte publicans in principle and heart. Had he been otherwise, he could not widely as he is admired and profoundly as he 13 loved and trusted have been the Republican candidate Tte Democrats mii'ht also have nominated and supported him had they seen tit. Many of them had early determined to do bo, and they lorg persisted in that resolution. He wkb emiuentJy popular with the loyal seotion of that party, while the Rebels widely aud warmly appreciated hl3 magnanimity and coed Sense. Of all the men whose instincts and fcfflliatinna ally them with the Republi cans, he was their first choice. The one sole obstacle to bis nomination by the Democratic parly was the fact that he bdloued to the other palish. Th-oui;hout the canvass just closed, Gene ral Grant has been systematically, persistently traduced by a large section of the Ddinoeratio press as a blundering butcher, a drunkard, a despot, and a radical, whose election would dig tbe grave and nail down the cotliu-lid of cnu Sti'uiioi.al liberty. Martial law, Status ex cluded from Congress, deprived of self govern ment, and rul' d by the bayom-t indefinitely, '., weie to be the fruits of his domiuatioo. The Deuiooratio candidate for Viue-Presidout indecently proclaimed that, BUould General Grant be chosen Preldent he would njver quit tbe White Home while be live 1; perpe tual anarchy, "negro Bnpreniany," and an exterminating war of raoes at the 8outh were widely proclaimed as the inevitable conse quences ot his election. But he is elected, nevertheless; and the telegraph bad hardly flashed the tidings over the sea and laud till, presto I this raving radi cal is transformed into a paragon of good sense aud mod-ationl Reveidy Johujon who never before breathed a hint of it tolls Europe tbat the American people would have Shown themselves ungrateful If thy had not elected General Grant t ( i hen what does he think of his own Maryland?) The National luteUlgrnar would like; to fall into his armi in a sudden swoou of admiration; even Mont gomery Blair threatens tho Presidentelect with his approbation; and we learn from jnyi lad throat newly attund to this strain that General Grant is eventi11y a Democrat and a lonrervatire, who will exert all the power of Lis great oflice lor a speedy restora tion of the L'ninn I And this, for a wonder, i trail General Grant's instincts are all democratiu iu the roper sense of that nmch-abu.-iud term, while his leanings are conservative, and his hoart yearns for a prompt rtiMtablishuient of the num in its integrity.

For our own part, we are nowise amazed by this sudden spat.ni of adulation. We expected and predicted it. We assured the people that Grant's election would give peace to the coun try, seeing that it could not fail to have that effect. We told them that the Rebels would soon swarm around tho President elect, pro testing that they had misunderstood him, and were now anxious to cooperate with him in the prompt and perfect re establishment of peace, fraternity, and general prosperity. This is cei tain to encit a in rerponse; and, ere he has been six weeks President, General Grant will seem to be as t opular and potent at the South as he is at the North. We do confidently trust that Ku-Klux operations at the South, from the burning of negro scnooi-nouses up to Uamilla butcheries inclusive, are already in their last quarter, because it would plainly be suicidal madness to persist in them. There may yet be a few sporadic outbreaks, but no systematio perse verance m Keuei atroc.ties. rue chief aristo crats will quietly hint to the ruffians that they must stop, and the hint will be taken. Tbe new State Governments will stand, and "the chivalry" will hud or fancy them more tolerable day by day. The blacks will hence forth vote without fear of general massacre or evt-u houseless famine. Their late mas ters will stop waylaying their path to tho ballot-box, and will instead insist that they have always favored impartial suffrage which Eome of the negroe9 will ba cajoled into believing by-and by. The new machinery of government will work rather roughly for a time, but will wear smoother day by day. The three States yet standing out will makehaste to resume their old places in the Union, re deemed, regenerated, disenthralled." We do earnestly believe that General Grant's four years will serve to efl'soe all the ugly scars left by our late fratricidal war; but, if not, we snail have to insist on his serving second term, and that will certainly see the good work completed. Sulky chagrin cannot outlive twelve years of blasted hopes. our terms of adjustment are the same since as before our triumph Universal amnesty, impartial suffrage; or, as our Vice-President elhct happily expressed them at Pittsburg on Thursday evening, "Liberty for all; justice for all; protection for all." When the smoke of tbe battle shall have Sully rolled away, it will be seen that our triumph iJ of na party or se tien exclusively, but that of South as well as iSortb ol our country and of mankind.
