THURSDAY. JULY II, 1866.
A Radical Cauclls.

The Republican Senators and Repre-
sentatives, having the fear Of the August
Conservative Convention before their eyes,
were TO hold caucus last evening to ar
range u programme for future action: as
we'll as to determine what course TO p"F-
sue during the short remnant OF the present
session. The result of this family conclafe
NAV be important to the party; and 1t was
strongly limited in Washington that ther
determination to maugurate measures I"
prevent official appointments and removals
bv the President during the recess oil Ion
prcss would DC carried out. n ne" era i
ccr,a;, 70 be inaugurated. 1t Is believed
bvmanv that the proceedings OF this caucus
will I've very revolutionary i'll their charac-
tor The movement shows cOnclusivcly
,bst the Radicals are alarmed at the pros
meet of their defeat in the fall elections, rs
all present political manipulations bear
upon the future. The hope of getting into
favor with the President is hooted at by
Republican politicians as absurd; and all
means arc now being employed to coun-
tcract such influences as it is thought the
Executive will use in the defence OF his
policy during the recess.

eide for himself As to whose victories he

eide for himself as to whose victories he
will rejoice over, and proceed TO say some
thing as to the origin Of tho war--mereiy
repeating, however, what We have hereto
fore said upon the subject.
The origin of the troubles was the CO.
yeting of Schleswig- llolstcin by Prussia
that she might have great navy ana RUE
the Baltic. Austria objected, as she WAS
eou,,,v interested with Prussia in these
Elbc provinces, having helped to take them
from poor little Denmark. Prussia not
liking to engage Austria single handed,
sought an ally, and that was readily found
in Italy, which wanted Venetia, and would
move upon that the moment Austria and
Prussia were engaged in fight.
The history Of the Schleswig- Holstcin
troubles is as follows: In the year lS4S
Schlcswig and IIolstein were united under
the representative system common to the
Danish provinces. In 1913, at the time
that tho mania for revolution was convui-
sing Europe, the people of Schleswig. Hol-
stein appealed to Germany and Prussia to
aid them in driving the Danes out of the
Duchies. The Schlcswig- IIolsteincrsa armed
with great unanimity; but in 1850 they
were completely defeated and subdued.
In 1882 the succession to the Duches was
settled upon Prince CHRISTIAN, and upon
the death of FREDERICK VII, Novcm-
Der Is, 1868, that Prince came to the
throne of Denmark by the title of CHRIS
rIAS TX. The accession of CHRISTIAN TX.
was the signal for pressing the claims of
the Prince of Augustcnberg, who did not
contend that he had right TO the kingdom
of Denmark ITSELF but asserted himself
to be the rightful lincal Duke OF
Schlcswig- Holstein, which pcrtained to
Denmark. Austria and Prussia took up
the claim of the Prince to the Duchics,
and i'm 1864, after some Intellectual ncgo-
tiation, war was declared between those
Powers and Denmark. Denmark made a
gallant and heroic fight, refusing COM
promise, which would have given her peace
at the cost Of voluntarily rclinquishing
Holstein, and when the war ended, found
herself denudcd Of the Duchies. Strife
and contention soon arose between Prussia
and Austria, and the claims of the Prince
of Augustcnbcrg seemed to DC entirely
overlooked. Austria wished the Duchies
to become independent members of the
Gcrmanic confederation but Prussia de-
sired to carry out her accustomed policy
by absorbing them into her own kingdom.
Prussia then offered her rival pecuniary
compensation, which was pcrcmptorily re-
fused. great show of negotiations was for
some time kept up, and Austria succeeded
in securing the countcnancc of the smaller
German States, (Which, however, has been
rendered worse than useless to her by the
recent steps taken by Prussia) but the
final result of all the conventions, coun-
ellis, diets, and diplomatic notes, is the war
which now RACES in Europe.

A GUcD INDICATIoN.-We learn from
Tuesdays STIR that meeting of the men,
bcrs of the two clubs OF Washington city,
the National Union and National Johnson
Club, took place Monday night, and re-
solution was unanimously adopted to con-
Solidatc them. A new organization was
formed, to consist of the two Executive
Committees, now resolved into one, under
the name of the National Union Executive
Committee.
We are pleased to chronicle this new
evidence that the Conservatives are willing
to sink minor issues in their desire to re-
store the country TO Il state Of real peace
and prosperity. Let not the people Of
Virginia neglect to encourage these move
mcnts in orr interest. We must send dele
gates to the Philadelphia Convention.

Prince Alfred, it is said, declined being
made Duke of York, as has hitherto been
the practice with the second son of the
monarch, for fear that the creditors of the
late Duke should send in their still unpaid
bills to him as successor to tho title.
A bill passed the Senate on Tuesday to
purchase some ninety acres of ground
near Washington for presidential grounds.
The President is to have new house built
upon 1t. The cost Of the ground was
ABOUT three hundred thousand dollars.
A Federal soldier who stole a watch
from Mr.: Samuel Cline, Of Rockingham
county, Va, about the time of the Port
Republic fight, has returned it bv express
with letter stating that his conscience
compelled him to return it.
The only mark of time Mrs. John Wood
exhibits is her new watch. (You are wei

The Washington correspondent OF the
New York NetcS says that the Radicals
have two schemes on foot for destroying
the influence of the Philadelphia Con-
vention. One of them is the proposal to
get up a bogus "National Union Conven-
ton" composed of northern Radicals and
Of southern rcnegades, or of northern
advcnturers who happen now t" be III the
southern States as agents OF the Freed
mems Bureau, &c. Another Is to cause
Democrats to keep aloof from the National
Convention at Philadelphia, and to view II
with distruSt, by representing 1t as an
abandonment and breaking up of the
Democratic party, and as movement
for the formation of a new party. This
shallow device will deceive very few Demo-
Gratis, the correspondent thinks. We are
not sure but some Of our southern Demo-
Gratis have been deceived by this very
idea. They write ahcctionatcly and feel
ingly about the cold Democratic party
and its "timc- honorcd principles" and
SItIi ~ llIIih lIdi ,oAi!AAs N''''N
prosper under the rule of a party bearing
any other name. We should regard 1t as
nothing more than graceful concession
To the noble men who once constituted the
Wing party, and who are now standing
shoulder 10 shoulder with the friends of
the Presidents policy, and working for the
restoration of the South to her rights, if
that party name were rcpudiatcd entirely
and a new one adopted which has no I'M
pleasant associations connected with it.
A. for ourselves, we would as lief rally
under one name as another, and If the
Presidents friends conclude TO call them
selves Democrats we shall not object.
Surclv there can be no virtue in title.
