A GLANCE OVER THE FIELD.

About two weeks ago the New York World, a
leading organ of the Democratic party in the North
ern States explained away all the apparent
strength of the plank in the Tammany platform
denouncing the Reconst uction acts of Congress as
unconstitutional, revolutionary and void, and
said, emphatically and authoriatively, that the
Democratic party never intended to overthrow, BY
force the reconstructed governments OF the South.
This declaration is understood to have been made
in the hope of regaining the vantage ground which
the party had lost through the intemperate words
of some few distinguished but imprudent Southern
men. ,->-.. .-. -.
Hsuccess be the true test of political merit, the
retrograde movement of the World was blunder.
The uneasiness which had been excited among
that large class Of Northern voters whom politi-
clans bad designated as doubtful had become
too general and deep-seated to be quieted by the
ipse ds1at of any journal, howey ar Influential
Vermont and Maine gave no sign of the great
ground swell against Radicalism which had been SO
confidently predicted Exaggerated reports and
ingenious falsehoods regarding the temper and dis
position of the South were sown broadcast and be-
gan to lear fruit. Perversions Of the Democratic
doctrine inclined the vast power of the capitalist
and bondholder to the support OF Grant And
gradually the apprehension gained strength at the
North that the peace and security of the country
might really be imperied by the success Of the
Democratic cause.
It is useless to shut our eyes to sad but obvious
facts. The seeming spread of the belief that the
election of MI. Seymour would be the signal for
financial convulsion, and, perhaps new rebel:
lion" is at the root Of the evident exhhration Of

REVOLUTION IN SPAIN.

Late advices from Spain indicate that one of
those sudden and unprecedented revolutions, for
which that country has proved so famous. has at
last resulted in the success of the revoutionists.
Isabella III, the reigning Queen, has long been
looked upon by the people with disfavor, and her
reign has been, at BEST turbulent since sheascended
the throne several years ago. The famous General
Prim and others, representing the Carlst faction,
have melted more than one commotion in the last
twelve years, which came near unseating the royal
head of Isabella. In each of these instances timely
averted such fate and disarmed the
insurgents by removing the cause Of their grlev-
ances
Within the pastfew weeks, however, fresh causes
of complaint have resulted in placing large insur-
gent force in open hostility to the royal power.
The policy of concession once adopted, it became
necessary to continue it. The Queen, however,
refused to yield to the demands of the insurgents,
and their forces soon grew into immense armies,
overawing large portions of the country. The
sblest and most reliable veteran officers we're sent
to oppose the insurgents but their troops deserted
them, and in many instances the officers followed
the troops, and identified themselves with the rev.
olution.
Marshal Pavia, commanding the Queens forces,
had been able to hold together sufficient number
of loyal troops to present the sembance of an ar.
my: but on the 29th ultimo, he was surrounded by
the revolutionists, attacked with overwhelming
numbers, and his army entirely routed. This last
stay of the royal power having given way, the
Queen fled into France her Cabinet officers aban'
doned her and the revolutionists, at last accounts
had attained complete success. The revolution.
airy leaders have organized provisional govern

The PAPER REBELLION.

The rebellion in the South, sccosding to the N.
Y. Tribune, is as active and violent now as it was
in 1864, when the whole country was in arms.
Two columns of that Wonderful newsmakhg sheet
are daily devoted to the Southern correspondence,
giving details of massacres, raids, skirmishes, ct
cetra, occurring in all the Southern States from
Virginia to Texas. According to these reports,
the Texans are conducting q very active military
campaign and the fertile correspondents who do
the sensational for the Tribune, abound with re-
ports of pickets, scouts, columns forced marches,
breast works, &c. in truly military style. As Texas
is in rather remote corner Of the nation, these
sensational news-letters may very we'll be imposed
upon the credulous readers of the Tribune tor eec-
tioneering purposes and received as facts, with
out the prospect Of successful contradiction pre-
vous to the elections ..,
We would not notice such matters as these, were
we not desirous to show to our readers the prncl-
pies upon which the radicals propose to conduct
the Presidential campaign. Their chances OF sue
cess are based upon the hope of creating disorder
and tumult, real or imaginary, in the South, suf-
cent to make the people Of the North believe that
the rebellion is not yet at end. If an imaginary
conflict cannot be inaugurated, such as the Tribune
announces, then we may have to deplore an actual
one, begotten of the Vaccinations Of party who
would descend to any ywickedness before submitting
to peaceable restoration Of the government under
the Constitution. As the party gained its ascen'
dancy through strifcs and dismemberment, 30 now
it hopes to retain it by the same means 1.-THE eoun
try is restored to peace the party dies If conflict
can be precipitated upon the country, either by
foul means or fair, then it has some hope OF per-
petrating its power thereby.
1t is but fair to accept the Tribune on the posi-
ton the Republican party ascribe to it, as the ex
ponent Of the party. In this light the inferenceiS
fair one, that the party are anxious for conflict,
so anxious that they have created an imaginary one
in advance of the real simonpure article. If this
make-beheve sort of war don't promise to yield
votes enough for the party, then we may look out
for genuine riots gotten up by contract and to Or
der, and put in operation few days before the 3rd
of November. Unfortunately for the Grant and
Colfax party, the South is too peaceable under the
proyocation of armed columns Of negroes parading
the country, with threats and violence the whites
have in all, save one instance forborne to resent
these outrages In 1861, this party wanted the
South 20 stop fighting, but their hope now is that
we will resume our arms to make capital tor IL 1
