Governor Curtirr—tin.--, ru, Party—The "Triple Alliance," g Seward, Weed, and Curtin. PHILADELPHIA., Feb. 18, 1863. Governor Curtin's unlooked fir mes sage to the legislature on the subject of arbitrary arrests fell like a bomb shell in the camp of the radidals here. Forney, who is presumed to be familiar with all such movements in advance, was taken completely aback by it. His first editorial, commenting upon it, was full of spleen. His ill humor displayed itself in every sentence. He did everything but abso lutely abuse his Excellency : and indulged in some expressions in regard to the prob able tendency of the message, which, to say the least, were in bad keeping with previous professions and practice. Yesterday morning, the readers of the Press were astounded to find that Forney had repented of the error df the two days previous. In a full column article, he not, only approved the message, but actually lauded the Governor for his patriotic in tentions. Strangeas this sudden conversion may appear, it is not more strange than the causes which led to the production of the message itself. There is an element of strife in the Ab olition ranks, which sooner or later, will resolve itself into a fierce conflict, and must terminate in the total disruption of the radical horde. The - covert and open attacks of the Administrationorgans upon M. Seward, coupled with his admission, a few days since, that the war could never , belconcluded, but by a conference be , tween the contending parties, to arrange the preliminaries oea peace, are too sig nificant to escape notice. His opposition to the unwise measures of the administra- L don, was, doubtless, the inciting cause of the attacks made upon him by Greeley, and the demand by the Abolition Sena tors, for his withdrawal or removal from the,cabiaet. Seward is plucky as well as atitibitions. He has a memory for a wrong as yell as for a favor, and as he has 'fioth ing to thank either Greeley, the Aboli lion Senators, or the Administration for, he has evidently conceived the plan of i forining a newparty, on the popular basis of Bepublicati conservatism, as opposed to Abolition radicalism. In this move ment he is supported by Thurlow Weed, whd has recently defined his position to be • diametrical opposition to Abolition in all its. forms. Governor Curtin, it was thought, would make a good ally, and as a favorable opportunity was afforded him to place himself upon the conservative platform, he availed himself of it, and hence his "lame and impotent" message. The interval betweet; Forney's first and second article, enabled the worthy to be come master of the situation. He saw at a glance , the whole plot. Curtin had been to 'Washington; Curtin dined with Sew ard ;II Curtin agreed to Seward's proposi tion to form a new party ; returned home and prepared his message. But the tele graph had preceded;him. The announce ment was made to the world that a new party was about organizincin the North, Seward, Weed and Gov. - Curtin as leaders. As the material for this,newparty woold: necessarily be drawn' from the ranks:Of the Administtation party every dictateOf self-preservation pointed its leaders to the course to be pursued. It becomea'a "mil itary 'necessity" to crush the treason in the bud. I have not learned by what hocus-pocus the "triple alliance" was dis rupted, bat we have the fact announced • in - several lengthy telegraphic dispatches from Harrisburg, and in labored editorials in the "faithful" presses of this city.

It will be remembered that, so etwo weeks ago, a similar bill, ehangin the i i venue from Beaver to Fayette coo ty, passed both Houses,•but on accoun, of some infor mality, was vetoed by the Governor. The bill Naich passed to day, it is understood, will be approved by.- His Excellency, s o Kra.

"An Act to afith - Ole Lehigh Navigation Company to• tend their rail road from White Haveito 1141113tunk."

TIIE WESTERN OPPOSITION We have purposely - Ibreborne all cup- El: l l 3 Pton the political Ovemexikwhoseirr- LgarOol rseas attempted in - the- Illinois gislaturi:until it should either assume . ,The definite shape ,of a other proposal to T i ail in the place where' t origin ated. While it was under discussion in the West we kept the attitude of interested spectators, watching, not without consid erable - solicitude, the development of Westertt opinion, but reserving, what we had to say-on the proposed movement un til it should be offered as a proposition to other States, when the question of its ac ceptance or rejection would make it a ligit imate topic of discussion, without any seeming wish to interfere with the freest ex pression of opinion in any part of the country. But since it has become appar ent that the movement is to take no prac tical shape, it seems due to the West that the conservative press of the Eastern States should indicate their views of the thanner in wLich the opposition should be conducted. We think, then— and we are confident that in this we express the sentiments of the inost discreet and influential Demo crate of the State of New York—that any ; attempt to hold a convention of the States isms, in the present aspect of affairs, prem iature and ill advised. We can now ex Ipress this sentiment with entire courtesy cl the West, for in doing so we merely lecho its own conclusion. It is clear none of 'e rebel States would participate in such convention. They claim to have form ed a new confedercy, of which the cen ral government at Richmond is the ex• glusive organ for communication with tor- Uign powers, and it would be a practical renunciation of the secession movement to regard or treat us otherwise than as a for eign potter. If the proposed convention consistedof representatives of all the Nort hern States, it would still have no athor ity to speak in the name of the federal government; no proposal it might make could be considered by the rebel govern tnent, because, if accepted, nobody would be bound by it. But when we consider that there are, as yet, only two or three states in which the Democrats have both branches of the State Legiblatore, it is ob vious that Davi4 would have nothing to do with a «mvention gut up under such auspices. It is only the government at Washington that can hind the American people, and considering the pretensions of the Richmond government, it would lower its dignity and demoralize its suppor ters if it descended to negotiate with sub ordinates whose action was certain to be disapproved by their principal. It is the mission of the opposition party not to break down or enfeeble the federal government. bat to got possession Pittsburgh. and administer it on constitutional prim ciples. If we carry the Spring elections is Connecticut and New Hampshire, as we hope to do, we shall have a handsome majority in the national House of Itepre rintailvesz-stat-..--....te4 check on mis chievous legislation. But even then we shall have bow power in shaping Li positive policy. and while we are out of power it is absurd to even assume the responsi bility for a policy. When the presidential canvass opens in 1844 it will be.proper for the opposition to define the principles 011 which to administer t he government ifihey carry the election. But for the present in is raiser to cordlne our efforkl 3 simple op- pasition; an opposition not captious, not petulent, but directed only against mess- Urea clearly inexpedient or dearly uncon stautio nal. Why should tee encumber ourselves with a positive policy, white as yet we have no power to put it in force ? Viiry likely the West and the East might not to-day agree as to what such a policy should be, while the progress of events may produce perfect unanimity respecting the points on which they would now differ. Why should the patriotic opposition pre sent, the unseemly spectacle of iarring de bates when time will probably mend their differences in season for concerted action? What the opposition will do when they become the administration must depend upon the condition of the country when they come into possession of the govern ment. If we take a farm in September we may put in a crop of winter wheat, but not if we take it in January ; if the price of cotton txntinuta high as may plant flux, but not if the Southern ports are , opened ; if wool brinks a good price price we may rear ell our lambs, but other wise send them to market. Just so the policy of the, opposition must depend on the actual circumstances of the country , when they come into power. The condi tioW of the treasury, the state of our for. eign relations, the degree of exhaustion in Which we find the rebels, the military advantages 'whiCh will have been gained or lost, aro circumstances in reference to which the policy of the government must then be adjusted; and it would he inexpe dient for the opposition to commit them seNes to a set of measures which, though .wise in present circumstances, may have _become improper when the opposition comes to. have some other power in rela tion to thi.in than th'at of Incurring re sponaibility Jar their Ovncacy. The function of an, opposition party is negative. It is to expose administrative corruption, resist bad measures, and stand up against infractions of the. Constitution. In all cases where time and the inevitable progress of events are - Worhing in our fa• vor, we 40:14..‘p.Mi,' as as possible, by a t`wise and masterly inactivity," W e Must have the coolness, self-possession, foresight not to botch by precipitate ac tion matters that if let alone will come out right of themselves.
