TMF ORGANIZATION OF TUB DEMO CRATIC l'A KT Y IN THE SOUTH. Frrnn the LouinvllU Courier-Journal It is to be regretted that any discussion should have arisen in the Southern States, and particularly in such a State as Tennessee, upon the technical organization of the Demo cratic party. The elements which the violent spirit of radicalism has thrown together at the South are so incongruous and as yet so un Bhapen that they are not likely to be strength ened by the attempt to subject them to strict pnrty limitations. On the contrary, the nature of such attempts must load inevitably to con fusion and embarrassment, culminating in di vision, perhaps, at the moment when the country has most need of a union among it . . - t . . , . f ii,a ........ ;n liluTiil forces, ii was uuo i iuvti, lu- devices of the radical scheme of geniouH reconstruction that tue mates "laieiy in i-nlmllion" should come into the Union neparately and at irregular intervals, in order that they might be so gauged and leveled, so physicked and bandaged, that they could not perform the functions of free communities, nor seriously threaten tho Congressional ma jorities which the radical leaders make a busi ness of looking after with uncommon watch fulness and during. As if to play into tho hands of this policy, as if to illuminate it and point it out where to strike, the premature advocates of a purely nominal Democracy in the South, inspired, apparently, by nothing broader nor deeper than local and temporary expedients, are here and there raising up questions of no possible import and creating divisions of tho greatest possible signiQcance and danger. Take, for example., as the most palpable illustration of the folly of this species of ultra zeal in a mistaken direction, the newspaper controversy which has blown up in Tonnes see, threatening to overcloud the sunshine of the recent popular deliverance: and what do w e see ? Surely no good to the genuine De mocratic principle, and yet less to tho prac tical Democratic organization. All that it has developed so far is a curious revival of by-gone epithets, a little needless overhaul ing of records; a few vague insinuations of very probable consequences; some fustian about the necessity of party unity and alliance; Bomething worse than fustian about "our Democratic friends over the border;" a trifle of ancient leaven and a great deal of downright buncombe. No man w ho under stands the peculiar formation of Tennessee, and the exceptional character of both the an tecedents and the experience of her citizens, can doubt the effect f such a discussion. Left to themselves the elements would mingle and harmonize by the most natural process in the world. Disturbed, agitated, confused, they will not only fail to cohere or be bunglingly strapped together, but they may react again, whilst the influence of their miserable con finement, and the errors of judgment inci dent to such a condition, can hardly fail se riously to affect the people of Virginia. Texas, and Mississippi, to say nothing of the lorces of liberalism everywhere. Not until the States "latelv in rebellion" are back into tho Union not until they are safe at "home" beyond the reach of the Con gressional body-snatchers not until they are able to commune on perfectly equal terms with all the States, and to bring their portion to whatever party they choose to join, should they think of quitting their present most pru dent, tenable, impregnable line of defense. We do not doubt that when they come to make a choice, and are in a position to make their choice a thing of some consequence, they will blend into that great Democratic body which realizes tho spirit at onco of toler ance and progress that is best suited to the needs of peace. They will come refreshed and strengthened by cheering vic tories and valuable experience in the working out of salutary reforms, not eorched and parched by vengeful party passions urged by obsolete party leaders, issues, and names. They will bo prepared for the new duties that await them, and, on account of their purification and experience, they will become the props and supports -the pillars and tho bell-tower tho prido and glory of national Democracy. Meanwhile, they can only do themselves and the Demo cratic party harm by abandoning a policy which is as strategical in its operations as it is beneficent in its teachings; which is admi rably suited to their peculiar situation; which satisfies reasonable and unselfish men of all parties. Those who counsel them otherwise do not represent the genuine Democratic sagacity of the North, but are either urged by mistaken zeal or narrow prejudices. It is our duty to speak directly for the Democratic party; but happily, in this instance, our duty as a partisan jumps with the extremely non partisan interests of the Southern people. CUBA. From (he .Y. ". Sun. The news from Cuba continues favorable to the hopes of the patriots. The revolutionary Commanders wisely persist in tho strategy they have adopted from tho first. They wear out thoir enemy by continuous skirmishes and alarms, but never risk a general engage ment. The result justifies tho plan of cam- Iiaign. The Spanish forces are melting away ike snow. What with the severity of the tropical climate, the constant marching, tho fruitless but most exhausting fighting, the yellow fever and the cholera, their ranks are daily decimated, and there are regiments which exist no longer except in name. In this condition of things, it is manifest that the Spaniards will soon have to abandon the whole of the island, except tho fortified cities on tho coast, from sheer lack of troops to defend it. In this emergency, we learn from the Joxvuid of Vommcirc, a curious phm has been devised to procure reinforcements and prolong the war. The exhaustion of tho colonial treasury is complete. Tor several months it has been supplied exclusively by tho proceeds of confiscation, and that resource is now pretty nearly at an end. Tho trea sury of Spain is equally empty, and all effort to send more troops to Cuba at the expense of tho mother country would bo in vain. But it is proposed that private capitalists, who have large interests in tho preservation of Spanish power in tho island, shall among themselves raiso the means of bringing over thirty thousand fresh soldiers. It is admitted that any smaller number would be useless; and it is calculated that with that amount of additional strength, General de Kodas, or whoever may be in command, will bo able to put down the revolution. A more impracticable plan was never con ceived. To bring thirty thousand soldiers from Spain to Cuba would cost not less than ten millionH of dollars, and to provide for them for three mouths after their arrival would cost not less than five millions more. We put these figures at tho lowost possible amount; much lower indeed than it is proba ble tho work could be doae for. Now are tho Spanish owners of plantations in Cuba ready I or able to rut np fifteen millions, or even ten millions of dollars, for the sake of keeping tin the Spanish control of the island ? The idea is absurd. They are not ready to do it; and if tbey were, they have not the means. Everything concurs to assure us thAt Cuba will soon belong to its sons, as a legitimate conquest. They are fighting under every dis advantage, without shoes, clothes, cannon, or ammunition. But they will win. The people who begin their revolt by proclaiming the freedom of half a million of their own slaves an act of such grandeur that it has no precedent in history are not likely to fail on account of any minor difficulties thnt they may have to contend with. THE CHINESE TREATY. From the A". 1". Trilrunf. The report from Hong Hong that the Unr lingame treaty has been rejected; that China is not ready to enter into the family of na tions; that Mr. Burlingame has been hni. bugged; and, what is more, that tho whole of this country has been humbugged likewise, is such an awful dashing of rosy hopes that we naturally hesitate to believe it until belief is forced upon us. Stories of a similar character have coine to us from tho English settlements in China ever since Mr. Burlingaruo started on his mission. This latest report has. how ever.a color of confirmation in tho rumor that tho Chinese Government has signified its un willingness to receive tho Duke of Edinburgh on a footing of equality with the Imperial family; that royal young man being entirely beneath the notice of tho boy-Emperor of tho Flowery Kingdom, and tho white devils gene rally nothing but a lot of ignorant barbarians whose first duty ought to be to pay tribute. The treaty which Mr. Burlingame nego tinted in Washington was drawn up by him and his Chinese colleagues, and was not sub stantially modified in the United States Senate. It was, therefore, an offer from China to us, and if it has been withdrawn there must be some special difficulty which tho despatch does not reveal or else Mr. Burlingame has most egregiously mistaken his functions and exceeded his authority. Tho special difficulty, we dare say. may re solve itself into the opposition of the British residents in China and the old hard-hitting statesmen who have lieen for a hundred years or more butting their heads against the Chinese wall in the vain attempt to batter it clown. Their formula for diplomatic negotia tion with China has generally been, "Trade with us on our own terms, or we'll mash your head:" and we are not surprised that they should look with disfavor upon more rational modes of procedure. We are surprised, however, that Mr. J. Ross Browne, who has just been relieved from duty as United States Minister to Lmna. siiouLl nave assumed, on the strength of his very short acquaintance with the present rulers of the empire and the disposition of the people, to publicly declare the policy of Ids predecessor a huso mistake, and intercourse with China on a footing of equality at present impossible. Mr. Burlmgame tuul the aeiviutago ot a long, familiar and cotifulenli.il intercourse with the Court of llr.t. and is likely to have been pretty well informed about its disposition; and he at any rate would not admit that there was any uisuperaole outn cultv in the wav of lrin''ui'" the Eastern and Western civilizations into friendly con tact. It seems to us that the opportunities for a fair treaty with China are better no than they ever have been before. China is sending thousands of her people to this country, and their immigration during the next few years will probably increase at a greatly accelerated rate. How we shall treat them, what rights we shall confer upon them, whether we shall protect them in the practice of their national customs, and give them fa cilities to send home to their native country the wealth which they gather in exile, are be coming important questions in our domestic policy, end the. answer to them will depend in a great measure upon the policy of the Em peror at I'ekin. China run hardly lie blind to this fact, and we await an explanation of the despatch with considerable curiosity. THE LITTLE GAME AT GETTYSBURG. I rum tht A. V. Wi.rhl. 'I he recent gathering together of rl.ih rri ,,, military men at Gettysburg to "indicato the points of interest on the battle-field ' was, it has become evident., tho shrewd dodgo of a bucolic book-maker, whereby an incubating volume of his is to be widely advertised, and its forthcoming contents made known at the expense and under the guise, of a "reunion of the I'ederal and Confederate genorals." From the false pretenses, the transparent telegrams, and tho lame and impotent con clusion attending this affair, it may bn judi ciously characterized as a more atrocious job than the marriage of Tom Thumb, the Bos ton Jubilee, ami tho Stowe-Byron paper itself. These latter had their compensations. 'This Gettysburg little game, in inception, progress, and sequence, has been announced and re ported solely in the interest, of a so-called military history not. yet in press. The assumption of patriotic and pacific motives inspiring the movement is ns cool as tho re sult of it is ridiculous. "Reunion" there was none. A few Federal fighters were chi caned into attendance: a swarm of civilians and a cloud of the Grand Army of tho Re public darkened the air. Eminent Confede rate generals wero co ir.-i-Iy and Jfalsely an nounced as sure to come. None came; but from tho gallant Bees did come decorous de claimer of the book-advertising and sectional phases of the fraud. General Boo had been impudently telegraphed as "intending to be present so as to relievo tho public mind of tho idea that he was dissatisfied with tho sys tem of reconstruct ion and that ho did not accept tho situation." This insult was as much a menace ns a bid. But it missed its mark. Tho General, without noticing this gratuitous slur, advocates "tho examples of those nations who endeavored to obliterate the marks of civil strife, and to commit to oblivion tho feelings it engendered." After which excellent and truly patriotic senti ments, fortified by tho accompanying letter of General Uitzhugh Lee, his son, how pue rile and coiitemptiblo npp"a.-s the inexplicublo dumb show through which those lured to the place wero hid by tlet book-maker, who has literally "bossed the business." It is tin,0 that humbugs were no longer foisted upon the. public in this manner. When advertising is to be done outside of Boston, let it bo done in a legitimate way. This hauling of non combatunts over battle-fields, and tho antece dent and subsequent accounts of tho little game spuriously perpetrated in tho mime of news, are discreditable, and merit tho failure wlncfi stamped tno proceedings in preparation aud in outcome. GENERAL GRANT'S SUMMER EXCUR- SIONING. From the A". 1'. Herald. The opposition newspapers are raising a great outcry against tho pleasure excursions of General Grant, when ho ought to bo at Washington. They say that instead of attend ing to tho public business and earning hi salary he ia going about from Old Point Com fort to Iong Branch, and from Long Branch to Washington only to cet a chamre of clothes and run off to the oil wells and coal mines of l'ennsylvania, and then to New York, and then to Newport, and then up to the White Mountains, intending to come round by way of Saratoga to Now York for a fresh start again on some other wild goose chase; that Rurf -bathing, fast horses, Havana cigars, fine women, nunkeys and fancy oalls, clam bake, chowder parties, trout breakfasts, mu tual admiration societies, and all the froth and folly, snobbery and tuft-hunting of our summer resorts seem to be his highest ambi tion, and that we never have had such tuft hunting and shilly-shally President hereto fore. An absurd and utterly preposterons outcry this, from beginning to end. General Grant has nothing of special moment to re quire his presence at Washington just now. He is, therefore, doing exactly right in taking these pleasure excursions among the people; for in these travels he sees much and learns much that will be valuable to him in the ad ministration of the Government. The people everywhere are glad to seo him, and in his quiet way he is everywhere glad to learn tno w ishes and wants of the people. Whilo be lieving, too, that business more than pleasure is the object, of (reneral dram, in these sum mer expeditions, we expect that the good re sults will soon lie made manifest alter ms re turn for a regular set-to upon the business of his administration.
