THE Berts county Democrats recently
resolved "ttat this Union is composed Of
separate, equal, sogerc!yn States, and that
no right, or shadow of right exists, under
the Constitution for Congress to hold soc-
ereign States as subjugated provinces un.
der military rule" &c.
This is the language of Secession,
whatever be the meaning they give to it.
This claim of Sovereignty in the States,
if true, justi6es Secession, apd proves the
Rebellion to have been the exercise Of a
righiful power by dissatisfied States. We
suppose, this is what the Berks county
Democrats ment to say. Their hearts
and hopes were always with the Rebels,
and are now.
Had the Rebel armies whipped the
Union armies, the Rebel States would
have been an independent power, by vir
tue of the verdict OF force. As the Union
armies defeated the Rebel, the Rebel
States are not an Independent power, but
are subject to the will Of the conquering
power, which is the Congress of the Union
and this, by virtue of the same verdict
of force to which 5oth parties appealed
for the settlement of the conflicting
claims.
Nothing can be palmer than this but
Berks county Democrats are wholly un-
able to see it. Their love of Slavery,
their sympathy with the Rebellion, and
their hatred Of progress in the direction
of Enlightenment and Liberty, blind
their eyes, and pervert their judgment.

The citizens Of Minneapolis, Minnesota, have
lately been favored with novel specimen Of
the progressive ideas Of New England. A
sanctimonious individual, calling himself the
REV." Edward Dunbar, one Of the shining
lights Of the whale oil aristocracy in the East,
has been tried and convicted on charge Of
Introducing the peculiar institution Of Salt
Lake city into Minnesota. Two ladies', armed
with marriage certificates, claimed him as bus-
band, and the reverend y disciple Of Brigham
Young was sent to the Peni!entiary to rumi-
nate over the evil Of his ways. The utmost
excitement prevailed among the benighted
people whom this precious evangelist went from
New England 70 enughten, and, no doubt,
apostles rom tie East will be looked upon
With suspicion In that locality for some time
TO come. The evidence In tho case shows q
hearslessness and religious mockcry on the
part Of The bigamist that might justly excite
the indignation OF even Turkish pasha- The

y Directly AFTER the formal opening OF the
French Chambers NJ. Jules Favre, making use
Of tn privilege Of in,erpellaaon, asked leave
to question the government on both its home
and foreign policy. Interpolation was granted
by q majority vote on the latter, but rejected
on the former. On the I'd Of December M.
Favre accordingly delivered brilliant Grafton
in the Corps Legislstif on the foreign policy Of
the government generally, attacking In par
ticular the Intervention in the affairs OF Italy.
Az yet we have only the msagre outlines Of
bis speech supplied by the Atlantic cable. II
Is manifest however, nom these outlines that
the attack was bitter and severe. The inter
vsution was declared 10 be . violation Of

Electoral Voess.

Tnis calculation Is exclusive OF the unrecon-
structed States, which, II admitted at all, viii
only come in TO swell the radical column. 1t
Is evident, therefore, that the recent great DO
litIcal revolution in the State and city OF New
York annihilates copperheadism a. well As
radicalism. and that the popular conservative
movement will finally dispose OF both these
disturbing elements that combine to keep the
country in turmoil and increase the burdens
OF debt and taxation.
So far as our local interests are affected by the
charter election, II has been, % we have said,
only question as 10 which set Of politicians
will have the handling Of the municipal spoils
for two years longer At the same time there
may be ray OF light discernible through the
darkness. Peter Bismarck Sweeny recently
obtained possession of an Office out Of which
his predecessors had amassed enormous for
tunes, and voluntarily gave up one hundred
thousand dollars q year Of Its emoluments to
the city treasury. This wonderful act Of
honesty was Of great aid to Hoffman In the late
contest Let sweeny now 60 further in his
good work Of philanthropy and reform and
compel Holman TO display similar honesty
and self-denial, and thus save seven or eight
million dollars TO the city In the next years
expenditures II Sweeny will do this and will
take the lead in the tremendous popular conser-
vasive movement i9r Grant or any other honest
anti-radical candidate, he viii deserve in yet
greater degree the gratitude Of the taxpayers

which should spring up in every city, town,
village and crossroad in the country, and
should embrace men Of all parties and of all
callings-the millionaire and the mechanic,
the young and the old, the democrat and the
republican. Such organizations will be useful
in getting up and arranging public meetings
similar to that Of last night, and these meet
ings will produce popular pressure that will
prove more powerful than the wires with
which the politicians are accustomed to work
in their conventions. A great conservative
party, to be successful next year, must spring
from the people and carry their sympathies
with It Like every other movement
It will, Of course, be used by design
ing political adventures here and there
for their own ends but all such puny attempts
to make the public will subseryient to per-
sonal objects will be sure to fail Let the
wealth, the independence. the intellect. the
moral worth and the business capacity Of the
country take the next Presidential campaign
into their own hands and they can bid def nnce
to copperhead and radical opposition. With
Grant for their standard bearer they unite In
their candidate the fame of the first soldier OF
the Union with the reputation Of one Of
the most honest and capable executive officers
we have had since the beginning Of the war.
His courage and. generosity would insure to
the South an honorable and liberal settlement
of the much-abused problem of reconstruction,
while his jacksonville administration of the
War Department is sufficient guarantee Of his
desire and ability to carry out policy Of re-
trenchment and reform that would speedily
decrease our present ruinous load Of debt and
taxation. It is time for the respectable por-
lion of the people 10 give effect to the verdict
Of the recent election by entering at once on
the grand conservative campaign of 1868.

It had not only involved the government in .
policy of error from which it would find 1t
difficult to escape, and produced throughout
the country general feeling Of discomfort, but
had been hurtful to the cause which it was
intended to help. In N. Favre's opinion SO
grave step should not have been taken with
out first consulting the wishes Of the Legsla-
ture.
In pronouncing upon the effects likely to be
produced by this speech, 1t Is not to be forgot
ten that NJ Favre represents but . section Of
the opposition in the Chambers The EN-
peror's policy is oil but certain to be endorsed
by the entire Church party and by the legiti-
mists and Orleanists. The policy of the gov
eminent will therefore be approved by large
majority Of votes. Il ID not to be imagined
that the republicans count on any other result
M. Favre, however, and those who act with him
have larger relative following.in the country
than In the Legislature, and they will have
their satisfaction In knowing that the
burning words spoken in the Chambers
will find their way to and exert their
influence upon the sympathetic masses with
out Considering that the Intervention in the
affairs Of Italy Is finding so little sympathy
among the governments Of Europe; consider
Ing, too, how many causes Of discomfort
already exist throughout the empire, 1t cannot
be agreeable to Napoleon to know that the
words Of bis rebellious deputies are echoing
over France, over Europe, over the world.

The Grant Movemens--The Cooper Institute
Meeting Last Night.
The State OF New York and its great metro
polls have appropriately taken the lead in
tho tremendous political revolution that has
just swept over the North. 1t was to be ex-
pected that the most signal rebuke to the ex-
travagant passions and crazy experiments of
reckless and visionary politicians should come
from the commercial centre OF the Union, and
from q community having the largest stake
and the deepest interest in the peace, progress
and prosperity Of the nation. The utter ami
hilntion of radicalism could not have been
accomplished in any other manner SO effectu-
ally as by the overthrow of the radical party
by q majority Of fifty thousand in the State
and nearly seventy thousand in the city Of
New York. since 1t has been generally con-
coded that the voice Of New York must decide
the character and result of the contest
of next year for the Presidency OF the
United States. The verdicts OF November
and December render il certain that no party
can hope for success In the next fall election
that does not discard all the violent, revoll-
tionary and unconstitutional measures Of the
radical Congress, and stand before the people
on q platform of immediate restoration Of the
South upon fair basis, without negro barbar-
ism as an accompaniment; thorough reforma-
ton Of our whole financial system; retrcnch-
ment in every department Of the government,
and speedy Tightening Of the present over
whelming load Of debt and taxation.
Such being the lesson Of the recent elections,
the close Of the last important political contest
Of the year appropriately ushers In a move
ment on the part of the people to give form and
substance TO tho sentiment just uttered at the
ballot box, and this movement is properly
initiated In the great commercial metropolis OF
the Union. The gathering at the Cooper Insti-
tute last night breaks ground for the
Grant campaign, and will be followed
by similar demonstrations in every other
State, independent Of oil the old political or
CARNATIONS, embracing the bes. men OF all
parties, and sweeping away with resistless
force the Presidential intrigues, spcculaiions,
bargains and pipelayings Of all candidates,
cliques and factions. We give In to-jay's
HERALD full account Of the speeches, resolu-
tons and spirit Of the Cooper Institute meet
ing. twas a gathering more important from
the character and standing Of those who par
ticipated In II than from Its actual numbers. A.
T. Stewart presided, and the names Of Francis
B. Cutting, William D. Aston, John Jacob
Aston, Jr., William N. vermilyca, William T.
Blodgets, Hamilton Fish, Moses II. Grinnell,
Paul sporord, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Moscs
Taylor, Robert Z, STUART and csheFf lately
identified with the Commercial and financial
interests Of the country, gave Importance and
significance 10 the proceedings
The people ell over the Union should max .
haste TO rise in their strength and push onward
the ball that has Thus been started in this city.
This can be done by no other means 90
effectively as by the formation Of Grant clubs.
