The New York Tribune is figuring to
prove that, as things now stand, the IRE
publican" party. per Sc, is not likely to sue
coed at the next Presidential election. 1t
argu es that the Republicans are far from
sure Of carrying Pennsylvania or New Jer-
sey, and some few other states, upon which
they have heretofore counted as certain. If
the Republican" or sectional organization,
could be broken down, as a political party,
and parties be formed on national issues, at-
fecting the interests of the whole country,
and having reference to the mode and man
ner of administering the government, touch
ing it's foreign relations. and its general do
nestle concerns, the Opposition, We believe,
could easily triumph at the next Presiden-
tial election. 1t is the Republican party, as
it now exists, which gives the Administra-
ton, indirectly, of course, much Of the
strength that it has.

Mr.. Golden has just made, in the British
House Of Commons, speech on the vital sub
ject of national defences, in which he treated
the late panic and alarm, as to an invasion of
England, as q piece of hallucination. To
show how much of the prevalent apprehen-
sion was unfounded, be adduced facts as to
the late comparative increase of the navies of
France and England. He admitted that the
French had show Of superiority in steam
frigates, while the British had superiority
in screw line-of-battle ships; but in line-ot-
battle ships, built and building, as against
the French built and building, the British
had ten line-ofbattle ships more than the
French, without including the block-ships,
which were serviceable. In the number Of
frigates the French navy was somewhat SUI
perior to the English, but there was the rest
of the British navy, not to be left out OF the
comparison, consisting of the corvettes and
sloops, and all those vessels which, according
to the opinion of the wisest persons upon
naval affairs. were the most effective of all.
The Americans were building nothing but
corvettes, and they said those were the most
serviceable vessels in case of war. MIR. Cob
den went on to demonstrate the folly of sup
posing, and of acting on the superstition, that
France would descend from its high state of
the head of the civilized nations of the globe
and fall into the ranks Of savages who were in
the habit Of making fillibustering descents ON
their neighbors Mr.. Golden lisa peace man;
but he has American ideas as to the folly of
standing armies and overgrown navies.
