DEMOCRATIC SIGNS OF THE TIMES. from the N. Y. Timt. We havo recently more thnn once pointed )ut Ibe evidences of a movement iu the ranks f the Democracy baHed upon a demand for liew leaders and new issue. We have shown y Citations from the Democrats pres of California, Wisconsin, and Indiana, and nota ll fmm iho, riincinnati lbiquirer, that there is disoontent with the management of tho imrty and with the dmpoaiticm of the leaders to make tradition the standard of party faith, irhese manifestations of discontent are mainly Confined to the Went; they are incidents of lhe vigorous gTowth which points to ' the future, and which chafes under an Eastern control that lives but in the past. Evidence now appears to prove that tho chocs of the lusty protestations of the West Iiave reached the recesses of the Domouratio Kanctunry. The oracles here and at Huston Iiave spoken in terms which indicate the sig nificance of the Western outcry, and the dilh culties that will be enconntered. by the party in the preparation of its next programme. IThus the World revives the mild retnon fctrances which it uttered just twelve months Tgo, but which it suddenly laid upon the rsuelf when Seymour and Blair were nomi nated. It then insisted that, unless the democracy recognized reconstruction as an accomplished fact, they could not hope for a Learing from the country. The party lash tquelched the rebellious suggestion, and for months past the pen which indited it has een busy in the opposite direction. The Western revolt has once more inspired the World with courage to complain, and now we, Iiave it delicately hinting to its party the expediency of "accepting the situation," and as we understand it counselling that re Construction and negro suffrage be regarded rs settled questions. Again our contemporary reminds its associates that an extreme policy, of the kind embodied in the New York plat form of July last, involves inevitable defeat, laid that it is idle to talk of victory at the Hovtth until negro votes be alienated from the Republicans. Still more suggestive is the language of the Ronton Post, a time-honored and consistent thampion of Democracy pure and simple. iThe World has before now been suspocted, Und its words may carry little weight. But the Pout is a redoubtable exponent of the Democratic - gospel, and what it proposes will je to many a law. When the Post, then, de clares that "the negro is out of the fight," rmd that all issues relating to him have been "'swept away by events, we must conclude Ihat the world of Democracy does move, lifter all. "Only the present and the future remain," saith the same oracle; and to profit ly either,, the party is assured that it must So . conduct itself that the suffrages of 'reasonable and moderate Republicans" shall le"won over to the Democratic standard." ITh'e injunction1 is sweeping. The musty lore find the lachrymose entreaties of Alexander II. Stephens and the Bonrbonism of R. M. T. Hunter disappear before it as completely as does the dogma dictated by Blair to the New 'ork Convention. . The party must start Xifresh, it is told by the Boston journalist, or St may Rive np the ghost. No more nonsense Etbout relics or the "ancient landmarks;" a fresh and rational programme, or defeat in Ohio, ' Pennsylvania, and wherever the old game is played. 1 ' But will the ' great men of the party listen to these counsels ? Will the influences which Iiad expression in the nomination of Seymour riuietly yield to the influences which were on the side of Chase ? , Is it probable that they -..i. l viii.--!...' 1 i i i i it.. party will make room for new-comers who do not worship the memory of Jefferson or swear by the Virginia or Kentucky resolutions ? These queries the Boston Post does not attempt to answer; it is modest, as is its wont, and timid, as well it may be. The World is bolder and more sanguine. "All the signs of the times," it declares, "indicate that the Democratic party, instructed by experience, tvill not repeat that unfortunate blunder' to it, the blunder of the' New York Conven tion. But a year ago the same newspaper in sisted that the convention was sure to act wisely; and after the blunder had been perpe trated, our contemporary contended that it Was not a blunder at all, but rather a display of political sagacity. A sincere respect, then, does not hinder us from doubting the inter pretation of "the signs of the times ' on which he World' $ prophecy altogether depends. For where are signs of the times indie i. live of a radical change in the policy of the Democratic party ? Where are the signs of Rn advance by the party on the questions of reconstruction or egro suffrage"? Where the tokens of its acceptance , of reconstruc tion as a finished work, or of political equality Us a result of the negro's citizenship ? We Confess that for signs and tokens of this port we look in vain. There are Democrats in all the States who say, with the Boston J'ost, that "the negro is out of the fight," and wonld reconstruct their party accordingly. Dut we have yet to discover the first proof that in any State the party, as such, so ac cepts the situation. When the Democratie Convention of Ohio, or Pennsylvania, or Wisconsin boldly abolishes the negro as a text, and boldly promulgates a platform on which any "reasonable and moderate Repub lican" can by any possibility stand, we shall egin to think that the movement which has extorted recognition from the World and the f'ost may ultimately bring the party under the ilominiou of reason. At present, the leaders generally, North and South, worship their idols as devoutly as though nothing particular tiad happened; and we expect soon to behold them re-enaoting the "unfortunate blunder" Of the New York Convention, with all their old indifference to consequences. . PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES. nm the X. Y. Herald. ' It is rather early in the day to be talking of presidential candidates for 1872, and yet va rious pipe-laying Republican cliques are in existence, each in the interest of some leading Und aspiring politician for the next Presi dency. The opinion prevails in the Republican- camps that General Grant is not to be a Candidate for a second term, and the party, inanagers are evidently resolved to rule him off the course. It was not from choice, but from necessity, that they took him up in 180$. II saved the party, but he ha his reward. The Republican State conventions, as they take their places and proclaim their doctrines for the coming fall elections, en florse General Grant's administration, the fifteenth amendment, etc., but say nothing of lhe succession. Nor have we seen, so far, from any Republican "Journal even the most fcUadowy hint of the probability of the adop iion.of General Grant as the party standard J.earer for another term. In all this there would bo nothing extra ordinary were there no movements afoot look- I ing to some other champion for the succession. I But very remarkable becomes this universal find, for insttinfc, Mr. Colfax trotted out in one plnce and Mr. Boutwell in another as the coming mnn, and we cannot avoid a certain line of reasoning when we are informal th it Mr. Suiuner is riding Iho Alabama cluiins qne tion ns a Profcidentiul hobby, and that General Butter is engineering the administration on the negro question in order, for 1872, to so oure the iiiHido track. In all those movements, rumors, and speculations wo are strengthened in the coticluhion that it is an uinW.-tt.auding among the Republican manager that General Grant is to retire at the end of Ins proHont term. "'We ' think, too, the opinion prevails that this understanding iH perl'oatly ngreenble to General Grant; that, in fact, he has no further ambition as a public man except a wish to go quietly through his one term and then gracefully to retire, as an inexperienced dancer walks through a quadrille, s,itis5ed if he lias created no confusion, torn no hidy's train and crushed nobody's toes. But as it is not tho first swallow that brings the spring, so it is not the first quarter of tho first year of a new administration that determines its policy or its destiny. Under any circumstances these Presidential movements, upon tho question of time, in bo half of Colfax, Sumner, Butler, or any other new man, would be unwise mid a waste of labor; but in view of the great issues upon which this administration is to stand or fall, it is utterly preposterous on tho part of this or that Republican clique to bo pipe-laying now for 1872. There are three yea, four ques tions, upon all, or upon auy three, or any two, or any one ot wmcn uouonu uraut may so shape his course as to be perfect master of tho succession, ns completely so as was Jackson in 18;2, or Lincoln in 1st; I. These four ques tions are the money question, the Alaba na claims, Cuba, and Slexico. Upon the money question Air. Boutwell is on tho right track. with occasional deviations, no doubt, from the true line; but still on tho right track iu his programme of reducing the debt, the ex penses, and tho taxes of tho Government, while enlarging his cash resources, - and steadily and not spasmodically gaining ground towards tne specie standard. Speculators, gold and stock gamblers, and financial kite flyers generally, do not like him; but in their complaints we have the best evidence that he is doing well for the Treasury and tho people at large. Ihus lar he is about tho only mem ber of tho Cabinet who has done or is doing anything to give any show of life and activity in the administration, and ho may by porso veraneo and faith become tho head of tho corner. On the Alabama claims we must bo content to await the lifting of the curtain; and so with regard to Cuba, upon which question we expect the curtain to be lifted a month or two hence, with the official disclosure of tho over tures of our new Minister, General Sickles, to the Spanish regency of President Serrano. Concerning Mexico, it appears that the arrival there at headquarters ot our new Minister, General Nelson, had caused considerable flut tering among the natives, from the apprehen sion that his inissisn is to "gobble them all up," from the Rio Grande to Yucatan; but here, too, we must await the developments of ins impending negotiations. It is manifest that upon all or any ot these great questions the present administration has "scope and verge enough" for a glorious success, and scheming politicians may bo too fast in now pronouncing General Grant, upon the threshold of the Alabama claims, Cuba, or Mexico, a failure. ! At all events, tho experience of the last fortv vears has tautrht us that the surest wav 0 - - to kill offjPresidential candidates is to trot them out before the time. Thus we think the over-zealous friends of Mr. Colfax are in fair way to put him "down among the dead men," and that, on the other side, Mr. Chase is repeating his old mistake of being too early in the field. It is folly on either side to talk of Presidential candidates when the policy of the administration in the interval to 1872 may so thoroughly demolish the two existing par ties as to bring into tho foreground new men and new measures, with two, three, or half a dozen new political parties and factions. ; FROM OCEAN TO OCEAN. From the X. Y. Tribune. "Nobody can realize how great a work this has been until he takes the long ride of four or five days and nights, through dreary wastes arid unbroken solitude." So wrote our special correspondent when he reached San Francisco the other day by the new railway, after cross ing the whole North American continent, and passing on the route through every variety of climate and every variety of country. It is like listening to an Arabian tale to be told of the strange contrasts of this wonderful jour ney of IWUO miles. At morning you ride through fields of waving grain, where the reapers are already at work, and before noon you are shivering among the perpetual snows. In a few hours the traveller passes from the valley where mercury stands at 80 dog. in tho tube, to the bleak mountain station where water freezes every, night in the year. From sum mer to winter is only a journey of a score or twp of miles. Seven days' travel carry us from the centres of commerce on our Atlantic coasts, through the fertile and cultivated Middle States, past tho busy cities of the lakes, across the wide prairies, tho burning aljkali desert where water for the engines must be carried a hundred miles, the mountain ranges and the wild magnificent country which lies between them, through the ava lanche region of tho Sierras, up to tho sum nut of mountains 81)00 feet above the sea, and so down the Paeitio slope of the luxuriant California valleys and the lusty seaport of our Western coast. No such road as this was ever built before, and not many such can be built hereafter. i The grandeur of the work we think has failed somewhat of duo appreciation. We have lived a life of such fierce sensations of late years, that great things have compara tively little effect upon the public) mind; and, besides, there have been such grave doubts about the proper building of the road, t hat we were not ready to throw up our hats and hurrah until we knew a little more about the way in which the work had been done. Mis givings ought now to be set at rest. Compe tent observers have given their experience of travel, and there is little or no disagreement among them. A great part of the road is as good as the best iu America. Nearly all of it compares favorably with at least three-qnarters of our railroads, and there is only a small section, laid under peculiarly unfavorable circumstaiiTes, which can be culled decidedly poor und uneven. But all these de fective portions are being rapidly put into better condition. Immense gangs of China men are at work all along tho line, reducing curves, levelling the road-bod, adjusting ties. Preparations are making for the winter's storms. Snow-sheds and fences are stretch ing themselves for miles along the exposed portions of the track. Masons afe at work upon culverts. Temporary bridges are being replaced by structures of tho most approved kind. The engine factories and oar shop are turning out rolling stock with extraordinary speed. New stations are springing up who ever the wants of travellers seem to ctU for them. Already one can travel from Om ilia to San Francisco with as much safety and comfort as from Chicago to New lork; anl ! shall not be surprised if itt tha courss of tv. o or three years the great through routa from ocean to ocean ranks as one of the bast i nil roads iu the United St ates. Such cer- t it inly ought to be its rank, and the people will spare no etlort to secure it. Til E NEUTRALITY ' FAR CE. Fnm the K. )'. H'orW. ' li e furte of enforcing the neutrality laws now beim; played in this city could be put t'pon the boards by no other manager thin 1'icsiilcnt Grant. The enlistment of a few nu n iu or around the ship-yard of Messrs. Jji'iid, in jJirKoniipart, JMieiand, to serve on board the Alabama, and their subsequent transshipment, near one of the islands of the Azores, on board that cruiser, have excited in this country marvels of denunciation of Eng lish officials. All that is nothing in comparison with what is going on here under the eyes of President Grant and his officials. For more than two weeks the premises at No. 8(J Hous ton street have been the rendezvous of men hired, retaiuod, and enlisted in open violation of the statute of 1818 and our treaty obliga tions with Spain. Recruiting places and drill-rooms in Brooklyn and Jersey City, equally as notorious as that in Houston street, have been employed by tho Cuban Junta. During all this week, from three to four hundred men have bivouacked in Hous ton street and been fed by the Junta. In neighboring localities enough " men are kept to make a considerable regiment, to be tinier charge of Colonel Ryan. On Wednesday night large bodies of these men were marched openly across the river to Jersey City. At this Houston street Casino one of the Mar- shol's deputies was gagged and Ryan enabled to escape, but no steps are taken to punish the breach of lnw. Was ever such a farce as the performances of Grant in this business ? The facts to warrant the arrest of all these men are known by every newspaper reporter in i ins ciry. jxooouy clonics tne en listment of those men and organization here into military companies, nor that they await transportation to the (Jospjdes army. Ihe law of 1818 requires the President, by the aid of the military power, if need be, to arrest and stop the expedition ! it was l'residont Urant who, in his inaugu ral, said: "Iu regard to foreign policy, I would deal with nations as equitable law re quires individuals to deal with each other. I would respoct the rights of all nations, demanding equal respect tor our own." It was President Grant who began his civil career bv saying: "It will be my endeavor to execute all laws in good faith; who even said: "But all laws will be faithfully exe cuted, whether they meet my approval or not. I know no method to soenre the repeal of bad or obnoxious laws so effective as their strin gent execution." THE DUTY OF THE. HOUR. From the X. V. World. The very general lull in po tties at present should not be a spell of inactivity on the part of the Democrats. This is just the time for energetic work. Again and again has it been urged by us that the really effective work of a political party is done between, rather than during, the great campaigns. There in, we admit, something stirring in the excitement ot a close political contest, with the mass meetings, parades, banners, music, and shouts ot the contestants. But all these are only effervescent. Boys can march and shout and make a crowd, but they cannot vote. To be plain, the Democratic party needs voters. and the one duty of the hour is to obtain them. The means for accomplishing this result, though so very obvious, are too often neglected. They are comprised in one word organization. Just this is what is needed. flow to enect it can be explained in a few words: I. The Democrats in every town in the country should organize themselves at once. As the first step, let some one invita a num ber of brother Democrats to meet at his house on a specified evening, and by a very simple process a president, secretary, and executive committee can be chosen, 'lhe next move should be to moke a thorough canvass of the town, and by personal appeal induce every voter who may be opposed to tho radical policy to join the association; by every voter we mean not merely a lew men ot wealth or reputation, but the tradesmen, the mechanics, tne ianners, and tne laborers. Each one should be made to feel that ho is interested in the matter, that his co-operation is needed, and that it is his duty to put his shoulder to the wheel. II. The organization thus completed and a brief constitution (the briefer the better) framed, stating its objects and aims, a room should be secured, in which meetings should be held as often as once in two or three weeks during the interval of political campaigns. A leading Democratic paper (such as the World) and the local Democratic ogau should be kept on file m the rooms, accessible to all who may wish to read them. The club, too, should keep these papers informed of its growth and of any and all political movements in the town in which it is located. III. Such a club should keep itself in com munication with the Democratic committees of its county and State, in order that, at the proper time, it may bo supplied with docu ments for use during a campaign, as well as to iifl'ord these committees the information that they must havo to make an efficient canvass. IV. It is not necessary that at every meet ing of the club speeches should be made. 1 hey are tributary, but not essential, to its success. Sure it is that, if the club is infused with the vitality which it cannot fail to pos sess 11 its member are wide-awake to their duty, there will be no lack of speeches, aud good speeches too. It is very ot ten the case that a plain appeal from a plain man to his fellow-townsmen will have a greater effect than nn elaborate oration from an eloquent speaker who is a stranger. The plan thus sketched in its outlines is very simple. A half dozen meu of clear heads and average intellects can carry it out. It is, too, the only plau by which the Demo cratic party can attain success in the States which hold elections next fall anj) in the elec tions lor Xiepresentatives in uongress in lo. Now is the time to begin to carry it out, while our oononents are demoralized bv the blunders of the administration and the failure of the policy which they have inflicted upoa the country. BOARDING.
