Majority Another Democratic Plana !Movement Proposed—Grant to Deceive the 13nanimons Vote of, the Electoral Col lege. The Washington correspondent of the New York HeraUlu this doubtful story : The movement in favor of giving Grant the unanimous vote of the Electoral College seems to be assuming a shape that promises results. Several Democratic politicians, mostly from the South, have put their heads together and agreed to recommend to the Electors of the States which have given Seymour a majority to cast their votes in favor of Grant for President. They urge this step as a grand stroke of policy for the De mocrats to'rulopt at the present juncture. By casting aside party considerations in thls in stance and giving Grant a , unanimous vote for the Presidency they contend he would be lifted above all petty distinctions of Democrat, Repub lican, Conservative and Radical, and made to feel that he is the President of the whole people, and as such free to deal with the issues of the hour in a spirit of enlarged and liberal states manship. Acting upon this idea—which, by the way, was thrown out in these despatches some weeks ago—these Democratic politicians have prepared a number of letters, addressed to lead ing' men North and South. suggesting the prompt adoption of this plan. The following Is a copy of one of these letters, which has been shown tome: "WAsniimroN g D. C.,!Nov. 8, 1868.—General— In my judgmentthe wisest thing the Democracy could now do would be to throw their entire electoral vote for General Grant, as indicative of the fact that should he pursue a liberal, generous and magnanimous course they will sustain him. It would also have the effect of not having him altogether in the hands of the adverse faction, and would doubtless strengthen any purpose he may, entertain towards the conservative send- Went of the country. This vote cannot possibly do Seymour any good,and thrown in 'the manner suggested would at least, produce a conciliatory •Inipression." Letter - a slnillar to this - have been sent to Gov. Stevenson, of Kentucky; A. H. Stephens, of Georgia; Wade Hampton, General .Gordon, Gen. 'Preston, Robert', Tyler, of Alabama, and es- Senator C. C. Clay. - These are all Southerners, but lam informed prominent democratic politi cians in the North have also been notified of the movement and urged to go into it promptly. Southern View of the Situation. Under the title of "A Political Honeymoon," the Richmond Enquirer of the 9th inst. has the 'following article upon the recent contest and its results: The Emperor of the French, In speaking of -Spanish affairs -the other dayria - reportedlrrhave said that the Spaniards were enjoying a ,"revoin tionary heneymoon." He alluded to the public tranquillity which succeeded the dethronement of the fipaniah sovereign, and the mutual good-will which thereafter seemed to pervade the laconic of that peninsula. We may adapt the idea to the present condition of public sentiment among "oar Northern brethren." They really seem to be having a sort of political honeymoon among them selves. Something more than the mere suidt of mutual toleration seems to exist betweeff the two great parties lately arrayed against each other in the North, in what we were assured was to be an enduring struggle between irreconcilable adversaries. But ff we judge from the almost 'universal shout with which the successful war rior's civil triumph has been hailed, we shall con c exults ender rit Leo is almolt --- 0 - a unanimous in rejoic ing over the defeat of Seymour. Their ante-elee , tion denunciations 'of Grant, and loud acclni for Seymour, are to be taken in a l'ickwicklan sense, as also are their protestations of devotion to principleii The bunting and illuminations, which cost so much money, - the 'peripatetic dispensers of "Demo 7 credo" doctrines, arid the "wild enthusiasm,"con 'earning which we have heard so' much; have rill' ' , vanished on been put-away like the' properties; having, served . the - 'purposes of the - mimic fray. Instead, we are told that "Seymour and Blair Clubs" in some places now parade in the Radical ranks, - joining in • the • choral chant over Grant and Cplfax, and bearing their old transparencies, repainted with the love liest legends of fraternity.. ;hi other places pro minent "Democraticl leaders like Vallandigham, : for instance, =give tongue to= their satisfaction, and predict the transfer of the whole party to the support of the successful Deneral. Even in the "nation's capital" some of our , "Democratic" organs have begun to set their .pipes to triumphal tunes, and have made ready to " take , position " in the ranks of the " conquering hero when he "comes."

When we ask the fate of the principles involved, we shall be told, as Mr. Toots would say, that it Is of "no consequence," and we shall find, - sooner Or later, that - the COM balanta whom we anxiously watched in their ap parent fierce encounter were really only wrest ling in mimic fray upon an arena which they had previously prepared for the occasion by o perip terlotes process, known only to themselves and the makers of feather-beds. A fall doesn't hurt them In the least. • Let u/3 Vary the figure. To our apprehension the contest in the North resembles a fierce com bat between a crowd of felonious old rats who have made their way into the interior of a ple thoric cheese, and only contend , for precedence In taking the first nibbles. It doesn't matter 'with them whose cheese it is, nor who starves ' on the outside. They know that it is large enough for all of them and are content to share' it in harmony after their frolicsome fighting. We of the South do not get even a taste of' the rind.

Such is the question. To resume its rank, Spain has the power, and it can again become the equal of France and of England. An immense offer of Providence! The opportunity is unique. • Will Spain allow it to escape? An additional monarchy on the continent, of what use ! Spain subject to a king, himself subject to the Powers; what a falling away. ! Besides, to establish a monarchy at present is to undertake a work which will last only a short time. A republic In Spain would be a loud warning to Europe; and such a menace addressed to kings is peace; It would be France and Prussia neutralized, and be tween the military monarchies impossible for the sole fact of the revolution being present; a muzzle placed upon Sadowa as upon Austerlitz, the per spective of butcheries replaced by that of labor and fecundity; Chassepota set aside in the interest of the Jacquard-loom; it would be the equilibrium of the Continent suddenly achieved at the expense of fictions by the weight of truth In the balance. It would be that old Power, Spain regenerated by the youthful force, the people; iewould be, in point of view of marine and commerce, life re,. stored to that double seacoast which reigned in the Mediterranean before Venice, and on the ocean before England; it world be industry swarming where wretchedness Ilea rotting. Cadiz tqual to Southampton, Barcelona to Liverpool, - Madrid to Paris. It would be Portugal at a elven moment turning toward Spain by the sole attraction of light and prosperity. Liberty is' the loadstone of annexations. A republic in Spain would be the establishment, pure and sim ple, of the sovereignty of man over himself—a sovereignty which M Indisputable and 'cannot be put to the vote; it would be production without tariff, consumption without customs' duties, cir culation without bonds,_ the workshop Without Proletarianism, wealth -without.' parasit ism, Conscience without prejudices, speech without • a gag, law 'without lies, strength without an army, and , brotherhood without Cain. . -It' would be work for all, in struction for all, Justine for ~all, the scaffold for,none.

Whoever attacks gains her. The army sent ,against her rebounds upon the despot. That is why she is left in peace. The republic in Spain would be on the horizon the irradiation of, the True, a promise for all, a menace to evil alone; it would be that giant the Right, erect in Euree, behind the barricade of the Pyrenees.

Laird, M. P., should be' present at the banquet given by the American Chamber of Commerce t at Liverpool, on Thursday, has been a most fruitful subject of debate •at Liverpool, not only in the press, but on 'Change, and among all classes of society in Liverpool and Birkenhead. The pros and cons of, the case may be thus stated : The American Chamberlof Commerce consists almost exclusively of merchants engaged with North America, and the majority of them are (or were) strong Northerners. In making out the list of guests to be invited to meet the American Ambassador, it .and covisable,--Dartieuhnigtur election-I rids, to likvite - the members, bah in esse and In posse, and Mr. Laird, being still the mem ber for Birkenhead, it was impossible to omit him.' As soon as it was known that he had been invited, he was taken to , task very sharply by many Liberal papers, both in London, Liverpool and elsewhere, and 'whatever his privatelbedngs may have ' been, it became - almost ' inapossblelor' him to avoid being presentat-,t,he lanquet with out even tacitly acknowledging himself; guilty of the grave aectufatioris made against him, or leav ing himself open as the tirget for ,•,even, more violent attacks. At all events Mr. Laird accepted tbe invitation, and went - to the banquet.

The Settlement ;or the r Alabama ", (Front the London Observer of October 25.1 Notwithstanding the curt contradiction given by the Globe to the statement of the Daily Nem "that it has been agreed •between - . Lord Stanley and Mr: Reverdy, Johnson that the respective claims of British subjects and Amexican• citizens arising out of the Southern rebellion shall be 'determined by an international commission, composed of an equal •number of British and American members," we are ABl3tged that the im portant announcement, la substantially true;; inasmuch as the approval of the Ameri can, Government is alone required to: render the Arrangement between Lord Stanley and. Mr. Reverdy Johnson complete. We have also reason to believe that Lord Stanley is willing not only "that the British and American claims arising out of the late civil war in the United States shall be adjuited by a mixed commission, to sit in London,' , but that he is also willing to submit to the arbitration of the Emperor of Russia the 'knotty question, "whether the sailing of the Ala bama .frorn Liverpool was or was not a breach of international law." Should the Czar decide in the negative, the 'United States will withdraw the so-called Alabama claims. In the contrary case, these claims will be examined and adjusted by a mixed commission, which will sit in either case for the adjustment of the other "outstanding, claims." Admiral Farragut at Gibraltar.

Crutchley, Mr. IL Sprague (the United States Consul), and Mrs. Sprague, Colonel and Mrs. Maberly, Captain and Miss Prevost, Captain Wilson, of 'H. M. S. Bristol, Captain Lambert, of EL H. S. Pallas, and Captain Andre, of the French Imperial war steamer Dix Decembre, were among the com pany. After luncheon, dancing was kept up on the main-tieck until a late hour in the afternoon. The Admiral landed on the 17th to nay a fare well visit to the Governor, and the Fianklin was expected to put to sea on the 18th. The command of the squadron, vacate4l_ h y Admiral Farragut, devolves upon ComOodore 'Pennock. hitherto captain of the Franklin, who will hoist his flog on the Ticonderoga.

Illness of the Pope—Convocation of Cardinals* The Pope has lately summoned to Rome Dr. Malagadi, of Fano, a physician in whom he has • great confidence, and who has carefully examined his kg. The frequent suppuration is regarded by the doctor as, a bad symptom, and he is under stood to have spoken despondingly of the Pope's condition. The Holy Father, however, is very active, and appears to be in good health'. The Rome correspondent of the Pall Mall Ga zette Says: I am still without positive confirmation of the statement as to the the, made by Count Ar-' mend to the Pope to cede to Italy the provinces of Frosinone and Velletri ; but an extraordinary convocation of the cardinals was held at the can a.few days ago, and there is no doubt that the Pope laid before them a copy of a note addressed by General Menabrea to the Italian Ambassador at Paris. lloebefort and Isabella's Loves, The following extract from the last number o • the Lanterne gives a solution of the reported duel between Senor Marfori and M. De Rochefort, on Saturday, Oct. 17:— An innocent plaisanterie inserted in the last Lanterne gave rise to a supposition that Mr. Mar fora, of Spain, seriously intended to send me a provocation, and as distance enlarges - objects even when not repeated, the rumor eoon pin ground that I had engaged in a duel with pistols with that milk sop, from which I returned with a broken collar bone. My two collar bones are intact, and Marfori never intended to demand satisfaction. This 113 the &nth. Besides if such a whim should seize him I think I can do much for him, by simply requesting my friend Brdbaut to serve him np a la maitre d'hatel. DRAMATIC AND MUSICAL. —Messrs. Bentz and Hasaler's fourth orchestral matinee, at Musical Fund Hall on Saturday, at tracted an audience nearly as large as that which attended upon the preceding week. The per formance was very satisfactory. Mozart's so calltd "Jupiter" Symphony occupied the first place upon the programme, and it was admirably executed ; the only fault worth remarking being an occasional want of precision and unanimity among the various instruments. But in an or chestra selected from miscellaneous sources, and brought together only upon occasions, this is perhaps unavoidable. It was not a very grievous defect, at any rate, and probably did not give offence even to the most critical and fastidious listener. This symphony can never excite as much enthusiasm in a promiscuous audience as the Reformation—Symphony of Mendels sohn, given last week. -It is more intri cate and elaborate ; it has profounder meaning; the harmonies are more learned and more peculiar; and the theme is not as boldly ob vious. To appreciate and enjoy this work _prop erly, a higher degree of culture is demanded than is usually found, excepting among Profeasional musicians and very accomplished amateurs. But it is well for those who have musical taste and inclination, to hear just such compositions as this, that - they may be educated up to its level. Managers hardly dare undertake such schoolmas tership unless they lighten the lesson with more popular music, and on Saturday Messrs. Bentz and Hassler had, for their dessert for this repast, a fantasies for the violoncello; one of Strausa's waltzes, a fiambeati dance and a march. The most attractive of these afteypieces was the violoncello solo by.. Mr.. RudolpltHennig, who-- made his debut in Philadelphia at this concert. Mr. Henn* played with most exquisite grace and feeling, and established himself at once in the favor of his audience. He is destined to be very popular, and he richly deserves to be. He cert ainly is without an equal in this city now, and we question if he has ever had a superior among our resident Musicians. His playing is charac terized by breadth and strength of tone, by un sual power of expression, by delicacy and ethos, and by a depth of passionate feeling ich belong only to a genuine, devoted artist. . Hennig will play at Mr. Wolfsohn's concerts ng the winter, and upon other occasions in Ile, and we warmly recommend him to those are fond of hearing that most eloquent of ged instruments, the violoncello.

But, at the same;time, a little contro versy, in or out of court, is an excellent thing to create an excitement and to attract attention to drama which else might be damaged by popu lar indifference toils merits. We think, however, that a serious quarrel over the matter is very un necessary and in bad taste.- If the play is hand. comely presented at both theatres, as it will be, without doubt, there is no good reason why it should not prove remunerative to: both, and remain upon the stage for a long time: To be aura, it.will be somewhat monotonous to have two of the theatres occupied with the same piece for any great length of time, but eyerybody will desire to see both representations, now that each manager has determined to outdo the other, and the Arch may now calculate upon the presence of the Chestnut street audiences, and the Chest nut upon this- attendance of • those who, under ordinary pircumetancee, would have patronized the Arch alone.

Water-color art is all the rage among the New York painters. The Artists' Fund Society will open an exhibi tion of oil paintings and water colors on or about the 24th inst. We have seen the Album prepared by the artists of the Fund for their subscribing members. It is admirable. The photographs, which follow the nicest half-tints of the originals with unfailing comprehension, are the work of J. Moran, Esq., the only truly artistic photographer we know of in the country. They are taken from grisaille paintings done upon canvas, the colors having been mixed simply with turpentine to avoid the gloss of oil, which would have interfered with the copying. The following are the subjects: Schussele; "Expectation," a woman classically drawn, interrupting her- toilet to look from the window. Her costume is German. and a glimpse of roofs like those of Nuremberg appeitr.thrOugh the casement: this is a. rounded, masterly, firm' sketch. • L L. Williams; "Wind storm." Figure climb ing a path between trees that twist in' tho gale; Mr. Williams his changed his usual forte, and produced a bit of vigorous effect. G. C. Lambdln; "A Good Day for Sunnies." Three figures on a rustic bridge, angling for sun fish: .one of the good: things of the book, success ful effect of a murky. warm day. Thomas MOran; "The Pictured Rocks of Lake SuPerlor;" a fine, drop-curtain sort of composi tion. • D. R. Knight; "The Inventor." Every once in a whlle this artist astonishes us by coming out in an unaccountable genre. An American pain ter, brought up, in Paris, where on earth has he found this thoroughly English conception, the figures in which ought to have been drawn by Muiready? Here we have the thin, flat shading, the defectively-accented outline apparently cut out with scissors, and the characteristic poses, of some contemporary of Sir David Wilkie. A pe culiar preeoness belongi to this little sketch, so unlike an American drawing. You would ac cuse (ourself of having cribbed some furtive and costly English crayon of the beginning of the etntnry, from the portfolio of a collector. The figure of the old man, immersed in study and surrounded by strange machinery, while his patient child warms herself at the furnace which contains his crucibles, tells a plain and moving story. W. T. Richards; "Jnngfrau" in the distance. A minute but broad landscape. The painter ap pears to have transplanted some of the decorous Germantown trees he loves so well to the valley of Lauterbriannen. It is perfectly characteristic, and a picture fall of fluttering life, Peter Moran; A stampede of .cattle before a storm. Amass otviolent wooden cows in zoo chattical motion, suggesting a Noah's ark upset under a fire-plug. S. J. Feiris; "Agrippina in the Camp of the Rebellions Romans." A strong draw ing of a female plebeian of the Roman period, clenching a magnificent fist, while with the other hand she clasps the laughing infant Caligula. A hard, firm crayon, cut up with little spotty triangular shadows. W. H. Willcox; "The Roadside Spring." tin worthy. E. Moran; "Lost at Sea." Effective and to the point. A man tossing on a mast in the focus of an, absoltitely lonely horizon. The easy touches of Mr. Moran are photographed., so minutely and mosaically by his brotherthat you could count the number of times the brush was laid to the canvas. S. A. Waugh; "Winter;" a very good head, photographed from a painting in colors. Hamilton--, our — old friend, the Shipwreck scene from David Uopperlield. reduces and photographs - remarkably well. N. 11, Trotter. Noonday effect with sheep. The most manly and vigorous bit of work we ever eaw from Mr. Trotter's brush. T. Henry Smith : "Castle Building." Culpa bly careless. S. Sartain ; "The Little Mariners." A fair coast-scene, with very white figures, and very black thunder-cloud rolling away in a crescent. E. B. Bensell ; "Serenade." Faulkner ; he has allowed hi's handsome paint ing of the Glenieloraine River to bo copied for the Album,:_m place pfpreparinganythkg expressly._ G.:8. - Wood ; "Twilight." A very good effeel, arranged in four horizontal stripes across the picture. Peculiar and sympathetic. T. J. Fenimore. "Morning on the Lake," with mist crawling np between the mountains. A good decorative landscape. Thesetinete,en subjects place Philadelphia art in a very favorable position before the eye,though some of our prominent painters, as Rothermel, G.Bensell,L6wis, do not participate. The volatile will come from the binder's hands during this week, and we believe a few coples will be Ipft, after the complimentary dietributiOn, for Bale. -A, story is going the . . rounds of the.
