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.
