The Seat of War.

OUR MAP OF THE BATTLE FIELDS IN ITALY.
The WEEKLY HERALD, which will be issued to
morrow, viii contain the fine map of the SEAT
or WAR IN ITALY specially drawn and engraved
for our columns, and previously published in the
daily issue of Wednesday.
In preparing this map we have carefully avoided
crowding into it such points as have no bearing
upon the actual theatre of action, and at the same
time we have omitted no point in the actual opera
tons of the armies Of the slightest Importance,
whether it be the scene of battle, the standpoint
of either force during the campaign, or any line of
communication employed or likely to be employed
by the belligerents.
Thus we are able to present our readers with
perfect and distinct picture of the whole scene of
operations at a glance, and without the labor of
study, which we believe has given universal salts
faction.
The new positions assumed by the different armies
since the great battle on the Mincio and the lead
ing points occupied in the movement of the Allied
troops towards the great strategic square, have
been added to the map SO that it is now quite
perfect up to the arrival of last accounts, and
will enable our readers to comprehend exactly
the strategy employed at the decisive battle of the
Minco.
Agents can be supplied. Single copies in wrap
pers, ready for mailing, can be had at the Office.

Mr.. WINTHROP AND Mr. RIvEs ON THE SLAVERY
QuEsTIoN.-We publish to-day patriotic letter
from Hon. R. c. Winthrop, of Massachusetts,
and another of the same character from Hon.
VIM. G. Rives, Of Virginia, on the policy of
sinking the slavery question in our Presidential
politics. These letters are the continuation of a
series, received or expected, by the Hon. Hiram
Ketchum, Of this city, Chairman of an "Old Line
Wing Committee" which still lives" and
which still rejoices, once year, in festival in
honor Of I" the gallant Harry Clay"
There is very "happy accord" between Mr..
Winthrop and Mr.. Rives on this subject of
slavery, although the former gentleman is a Mas
sachusetts old line whig, and the latter Virginia
conservative of democratic antecedents. We re-.
member that Mr.. Winthrop, Mr.. Rufus Choate,
MIR. Caleb Gushing, Mr.. Rives, Mr.. Seward, Mr..
Fillmore, and host Of other distinguished poll
ticians now scattered about in every direction.
were in 1910 the followers of Henry A. Wise.
with his rallying cry of the union of the wings
for the sake Of the Union;'' and it is somewhat
refreshing, seven years after the destruction of
this old wing Union party, to find that there arc
still come living remnants left Of 1t who cling to
their faith in general resurrection.
Leaving them in the sweet possession of this
romantic idea, we cannot forego the occasion for
word or two in support Of the position of
Messrs. Rives and Winthrop on this question of
slavery. They contend substantially that there
is no existing issue concerning slavery between
the North and the South justifying sectional
agitation-that the slavery question, in fact, as
Presidential bone of contention, has been com
pletely stripped Of Its meat, gristle and marrow;
that any further excitement over the subject In
either section, TO the exclusion of the great
practical interests of the country, is wicked,
foolish, and suicidal; and these conservative men
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1859-07-08

are therefore, in favor Of at least one party In
1860 which shall ignore this mischievous slavery
question.
Our republican newspapers are making them
selves merry over Mr.. Winthrop's letter They
tell us that he is behind the age; that he does
not see that it is raining when there is deluge;
that be is playing into the hands of the slave
power" that he is evidently conservative,
whose next step will be into the camp of the
" slave democracy" and so on. But still the
fact the important fact, is before us, that prac-
tically, with the Kansas settlement there is
nothing of slavery left to the North or the South
to quarrel about. In 1850 there was q general
settlement, 50 satisfactory to the country that
upon this platform in 1852 an obscure New
Hampshire politician was elected President by
the almost unanimous electoral vote of the
country, over the most accomplished American
soldier and one of the most distinguished pa
triots of the age.
But in 1854, Mr.. Pierce, not to be outdone by
Mr.. Douglas as candidate for Southern capt.
tai for the succession, plunged headlong into
that rash experiment, the Kansas Nebraska bill.
And what them A Northern political upheayal
was thus produced, and the democratic party
under this revulsion would have been crushed to
atoms but for the saving interpostion of Mr..
Buchanan. He saved the party, because his
hands were clean Of any contact with the revo-
lution-any experiment of that Kansas Nebraska
bill. Two years passed away after his Inaugural
ton, and what do we see? We find this Kansas
agitation completely settled-the South have
lost the prize-but the question is settled and
the country is satisfied.
In default of any practical issue, however,
the slavery-agitating demagogues Of the North
and the South have invented q 'string of abstrac-
TONS" squatter sovereignty, Congressional in
tervention the right of the States respectively to
prohibit or reopen the African slave trade, &c +,
&c. But all these are mere distractions, and the
American people care very little for empty alb
stractions of any sort. We believe there are
floating materials enough in the country from
which to organize party capable of holding
the balance of power in the matter of our next
Presidential election To this end if these old
line wings, and conservatives of all grades and
sections, would only put their heads together,
and appoint day for an early national conven-
ton, they may. do something. Otherwise, be-
tween the slavery abstraction agitating parties
Of the day these powerful conservative materials
may be FILTERED away for want of an organiza-
ton. Gould not Mr.. Ketchum begin the work
of the organization thus indicated? Why mott
What coed will all these patriotic letters do
without party to back them?

THE PALMERsTON ADMINIsTR ATIoN-In the
list OF the new Ministry, which appears in the
London Times of the 25th, and which we pre.
sumo is to be regarded as authentic, we find the
name Of Mr. Golden again set down for the
Presidency OF the Board of Trade. As the arri-
val Of the Indian, in which the honorable gentle
man sailed from Quebec, had not been reported
when the Asia left Liverpool, his acceptance of
this Office had yet to be ascertained From the
manner in which his appointment is spoken of
by the Manchester and Birmingham journals,
which are considered the organs Of the extreme
section of the liberals, there is very little doubt
of his joining the Ministry. The fusion of the
hitherto divided elements of the party would be
deemed incomplete unless it included either Mr..
Golden or Mr.. Bright The insinuaton thrown
out by the London Star, that the latter was ex.
cluded from Office because he was personally dis
pleasing to the Queen, is, we see, Indignantly
contradicted by the Birmingham Daily Post. 1t
states that no slight could possibly be intended
In withholding Office from man who had 80 dis
tinctly declared, both publicly and privately.
that he would not accept it. Mr.. Bright feels
that he is more useful as an Independent member
Of Parliament, that be serves his country best
when unfettered, and that, in taking office, though
would sacrifice no principle, he must, perhaps,
for the sake Of carrying on government, occasion
ally yield his assent when he could scarcely give
bis entire appreciation. This statement is to be
regarded as an authoritative exposition Of Mr..
Brights sentiments. They are highly honorable
to bis sense Of political independence and patri-
otism, and cannot but increase the respect felt
for bis character by all classes of politicians in
England. AS regards the interests of the great
measure to the accomplishment of which Mr..
Bright's Parliamentary life has been devoted,
We concur with him in thinking that they will
be best advanced by his occupying strictly in
dependent position in relation to the Ministry.
which counts upon his support.
