New-York tribune., 1867-10-08

The platform adopted by the Democratic Con-
vention in New-York is more expressive in its
silence than In its language. 1t is silent on the
ancient doctrines Of State Sovereignty, strict
construction of the Constitution. the Virginia
and Kentucky ordinances of 1898, the rights of
Slavery, and the merits of Free Trade. 1t fails
to either indOrse or compliment President
johnson, or even to thank him for the offices
and patronage he has placed at its disposal
1t has no opinion on the removal of Stanton,
Sheridan, and Sickes. 1t dares not disapprove
the National Banking System, or the present
tariff, or even to suggest in plain terms how
easily the Government may support itself by
collecting taxes from its creditors on what it
owes, 1t complains of the progress made in
extending NEGRO suffrage in the South, and
growls because it has not made equal progress
in New.York. 1t forgets that it ever declared
the war failure, and SO it declares Reconstruc-
stion is failure. 1t advocates an Excise law
under which there can be 10 arrests, searches,
or seizures, and obedience to which shall be
left to the influence of moral suasiOn. Finally.
il thanks the soldiers, and declares that they
"cannot bc scduccd into sustaining any policy "

TIE RLECTIONS TO-DAY.


Pennsylvania votes to-day for Supreme
Court Judge, one member of Congress in the
XIIth District for vacancy, and legislative
and county officers. The candidates for Judge
are Henry w. Williams. Republican, and
George Sharswood, Democratic. The last test
vote in Pennsylvania was for Governor in 1866,
when Gen. Geary, Republican, had GO7eA to
200 OO96 for Clymer, Democrat-a majority OF
27,129.
In Ohio we run Rutherford b. Hayes for
Governor against Judge Thurman, a pronounced
Copperhead. There is separate issue, voted
for separately-that of comforting the right OK
suffrage upon the cOlorcd citizens of the State.
At the election for Governor in 1865, Gen. Cox.
Republican, had nearly $4,000 majority over
Gen. Morgan, Democrat.
In Indiana the contest is simply for County
officers, and we cannot expect heavy vote,
AT the election for Governor in 1866, Gov.
Morton was successful over Joseph L. McDoa-
aid, DEM, by a majority of 2O,SS3.
I'm Iowa the election of Col. Samuel Merrill
for Governor is a matter OF course. There is
much excitement there about prohibtory laws
regarding liquor, but it will scarcely affect the
ticket The last Governor (StOne) had l6,;'S5
majority over Benton, Dem.
We confidently hope for handsome Republican
maiorties in all these States, though it Is GER
tain that the Democrats are working with ex-
traordinary energy in the hope Of carrying oil
the keystone State, and defeating Impartial
Suffrage in Ohio. single day will tell the

berth. We encourage no man to come hither
from the South in quest of contributions TO
build church, to support school, or 70
achieve any local political end. The North
can't afford to pay the fare of all who wouid
like to bo sent or to send themselves bither on
such errands. But we are willing to pay our
part as we trust others are, toward the main
tenance of general effort to organize the
Southern Republicans and bring out their last
vote. Such effort is now under charge OF the
Committee of Congress whereof Gen. Robert
c.. Schenck is Chairman, and Thomas l.. Iul-
lock Secretary with Thomas w. Conway travel

now traversing the North in the prosecution OF
his appointed work.

The readers of THE TRIBUNE have received
the freshest and the most accurate information
concerning the important movements OF Carl
baldi, which have been the great event of the
past few weeks. An intimate friend of the
General, who has accompanied him to Geneva,
and from there on his journey to the Roman
frontier, and who was present at his
arrest, has given, in a series OF letters
to THE TRIBUNE, faithful and vivid
account of all the stirring occurrences
in Italy. We publish this morning the letter
describing the arrest of Garibaldi. The fuller
statements which now reach us by steamship
fully confirm the views which we have ex-
pressed on the brief Cable dispatches. LOUIS
Napoleon exercised the greatest pressure upon
the Italian Government to secure the arrest OF
Garibald threatening, in fact, another mme-
date intervention in case Italy should fai! to
comply with his demands.

SEw pEpIrRI1CAN PAPER

We have received the first number of new penny
morning newspaper, published in Philadelphia and
called The Morning Post 1t is brilliant, compact,
able newspaper. and is devoted to true doctrines.
I'VE believe it says, in tho highest form of Lib
erty. There shOuld he social nor civil distinc-
tion in race, color, religion. Manhood should be
the test of suffrage. Education should be made
universal. American industry should be protected
10y iudicous tariff. Labor shonld receive protec-
tiOn." Every Republican should rejoice to support
journal which takes this high ground.
We understand The Post is to be edited By one Of
the most trusted and able members Of our TRIBUNE
staff. We regret to have him 80 from lis: but as he
proposes to labor in tho good cause elsewhere. we
wish him and his paper God Speed We shall be
mistaken If The Post does not speedily attain
mandng position in Philadelphia journalism.

orc 1yIZ4 TIOy AT THE SOUTH.

The Republican party in the South is fixed
fact. Ii is composed of those Southern Whites
who were loyal while Rebellion was rampant
and dominant all around them of the bulk Of
those Whites who migrated southward during
or since the war; OF many thousands OF thor
oughy reconstructed, freedom loving, Union
loving ex-Rebels; and OF the great body of
the Southern Blacks. These classes form to-
gcthcr majority of the Southern people, and
we regret that any pretext has been given to
the Unreconstructed by Congress for refusing
10 vote. II every citizen OF every Southern
State were enfranchised, we should still elect
two-thrds of their Members of Congress and
give most of their Electoral Votes 10 the Re-
publican candidate for next President. Enfran
chisement, not Dsfranchscment has made the
South Republican.
Yet the party is not yet fully organized and
badly needs to be. Its enemies are minority,
but AN active, intelligent, powerful minority.
They own most of the land and other mate
rial wealth; they prosecute the trade and di-
rect the labor Of the South; they sell the crops,
and are valued customers to merchants, fac
tors, mechanics, Sc. The newspapers are near
ly all in their interest; they can concentrate
and call out their votes easily and surely;
while the great mass of the Repubcans-hav-
ing been reared in Slavery, and still tlllng
their old masters lands on shares or for wages,
are poor, ignorant, scattered on plantations,
having little intercourse with each other and
largely subject to their employers or landlords
power-reQure to be visited, enlightened, and
prompted to exercise their Right of Suffrage
surely and effectively.
The Republicans of the South are generally
very poor Social influence and caste prcju-
dice operate strongly against them. 1t is mt
once the duty and the interest of the Northern
Republicans to help them to organize their
forces as to be sure of bringing out their full
strength at each of the important elections to
be held throughout the next fourteen months
We have discountenanccd and shall continue
to discourage, every attempt to raise money in
the North in aid OF local or partial cilurS 10

rilsc money here to stayt ucwspapcg. 10 sQs'

The n. y. Times has forgotten that its editor
was nominated for Lieutenant Governor III 1874
by Republican as well rs by n Wing and also
bya Temperance State Convention. He is 2cear'y
mistaken in saying that the Republican party
"had no existence until two years later" That
party was formed in this, as in most of the
Free States, in the Fall of 1854, though it did
not here take the name Republican till the next
year. 1t triumphed as Republican i'll Ohio and
several other States in 1854.
The Times agrees with us on the main point
that Prohibition as. License, like Free Trade
rs. Protection, is a question wholly outside Of
the Republican creed. That is just what we
aimed to prove by the article to which it takes
exception. We certainly had understood The
Times as maintaining that the Prohibitionists
were seeking to impose their n0strum on the
party as an article of its creed; when 20 such
attempt has been made within our knowledge,
for the last ten years. On the other hand, the
Liquor men are trying to pledge us TO their
confession which we resist We would leave
every Republican perfectly free to favor or Op-
pose Prohibition, as he shall see fit.
The Times seeems displeased with our offer
to print its Editors ProhibitOry letter, and
offers in trrn to print variOss articles in which
it supposes us interested. Very good we ac
cept the offer, and will thank The Times to
print the Davis bail-bOnd, with the signatures
attached. We believe that is the only one of
the papers it mentions which has not already ap-
peared in its columns, and we believe it will he
read with interest by the patrons Of that sheet.
1t may add if it will, that the Editor of The
TRIBUNE regards the signing of that bond as
one Of the noblest acts of his life, and conf
IDENTIFY trusts that most of those who now con-
denim him therefor will live to honor him for
that act more than for any other.

The news from Italy is again highly favor
bic to the success of the Garihaldians. FOlun-
teers are rushing into the Papal territory on
all sides, and have in particular taken poses
sion of the Southern province of Frosinone.
A detachment of Papal troops which was sent
against them has again been defeated. The
complete success of the patriots seems to be
fully secured in case a new French interven
ton can be prevented 1t is stated that the
appeal of Italy against the September Conven-
tion and against new Intervention is sup
ported by Prussia. This is the beginning of
a PrussO- Italian alliance.

The Hon. VIM. Alexander, Attorney General
of Texas, has rendered an opinion, at the request
Of the C6htroller of that State, to the effect
that the appropriations made by the Johnson
lied Legislature last Winter, for carrying into
effect laws passed by the Rebel Legislature Of
that State from 1851 to 1866, are void; that all
such laws are void; that they cannot be made
valid by q general act of the Johnson Legisla-
ture of last Winter, legalzing so much Of them
as is not inconsistent with the National Con-
stitution and the laws of Congress. The laws
of Texas are those in force before The Rebel
