and he charges it all, not to those who
assailed, but to those who upheld, the Union.
He declared that we could never subdue
what he called the South but we did. He
predicted that we would bankrupt the Treas
ury and confiscate the property of our People;
but the farms and houses that he pronounced
mortgaged for more than their value by the
War Debt, are worth as much com to-day as
they were when his party quarreled ltseit ont

THE DEMoCRAuC CONVENTIONS.

"RestOrations," says a philosophic observer
"are the worst of governments" They are
naturally rapacious, vengeful, bitter, impla-
cable. The French people of 1S14-15, who sud-
denly discovered that they for twenty years
had been subjects of His Majesty Louis XVIII
(the DesireD without knowing it, were made
profoundly to realize the truth of the remark
above quoted. When Legitimist writers talked
of the brilliant victories won by His (afore-
sad) Majesty's armies, between the years 1896
and 1912, under the command of Gen. Bona
parte, their feelings of Indignation and of de-
rision struggled desperately for ascendancy.
The Democratic party quarreled, divided
and threw away the Presidency, in 1860. No
other party did half so much toward eflecting
its overthrow as itself. 1t still held the Su-
preme Court and both Houses of the incoming
Congress- by Secession and Rebellion, it squan-
dered these also That Secession, that Rebel
lion were prominently the work of Democratic
politicians. Those of the South defed the
authority and sought to destroy the unity Of
the Republic; those of the North pledged
themselves to resist Coercion" unto blood,
the flesh was weak. Hence, Secession and
hcDelllODJ dIJer u long, utsptIdIe, COSllyJ
bloody struggle, were crushed out.
The Republicans were but twO-ffths of the
American People in 1860 They elected their
President through the Democratic split, engi-
neered by the Southern Democracy on pur-
pose that they should elect him. Congress was
made over to them by the withdrawal of the
Southern Democrats. The Supreme Court, so
far as it became Republican at all, was like
wise made over to them by the Rebellion.
President Lincoln was eminently a man of
Peace. The Democracy allowed him but this
alternative" Fight, or break your inaugural
"oath to execute faithfully the duties of the
Presidential office" They backed him to the
wall, and, by the bombardment of Fort Sum-
ter, compelled him to fight.
Slavery was the melting, Overrulng cause of
Secession. Slavery said to the Union, lone of
:" us must die" whereupon President Lincoln,
standing for the Union, said, "Then it shall
abe Slavery!" and his word was ultimately
made good
Before the War began, HoratiO Seymour
assailed the Republicans on suspicion that
they would not tamely submit to Disunion
as bitterly as he did yesterday. He ac-
cused them as recklessly in 1861 as he does
in 1868. He held them then responsible for the
consequences of Secession and Rebellion; and
he does so to-day. Rivers of blood have been
shed, mountains OF debt have been piled up !;

The Democratic National Convention found
its progress arrested yesterday by the fact that
its Committee on Platform, though appointed
on Saturday. had been unable to agree up to
the hour of adjournment last evening The
delegates are a unit only in abusing and de-
flaming the Republicans whose Platform Com
mittee at Chicago easily and quickly agreed
on report which the Convention at once
adopted with enthusiasm. Our opponents are
seriously at lOggerheads concerning Finance
and Currency, as well as with regard to can
didates. They talk of Republicans being sec

the adoption of our platform emphatically re-
fute the charge bat how is it with theml
We presume their Committee will be shamed
into making some sort of report this morning.
New-York tribune., 1868-07-07

Although the Canada thistle has been long
known as a great pest to the farmer, which, if
not checked, would overrun the country it
has steadily gained ground in many, and per-
haps in nearly all, parts of our State. Who
ever owns, rents, or has control of land should
not fail to have whatever Canada thistle may
be growing cut. There are two periods when
this can be done to the best advantage: these
are from the 1st to the 18th of July, and from
the 1st to the 18th of September If found
growing on lands belonging to the State such
rs border the canals, or on lands belonging to
railroad companies, any person may, according
to law, cut them and recover 81 day for doing
so. The work should commence at once and
be thoroughly performed, and if it is persisted
in for few years determination must follow.
New-York tribune., 1868-07-07

1t is very difficult for inexperienced volun-
teers to manage great festival and that the
monster German gatherings this season in
Chicago and New-York should be only partly
successful was hardly to be avoided. The
Saengerfest was not all harmony, and though
there was abundance of mirth and song, and
on the whole a gratifying exhibition of good
feeling there was much dissatisfaction and
pickering also. The Schutzenfest which closed
at Jones's Wood yesterday seems to have been,
in one respect, very grossly mismanaged. and
the public, we think, have been very patient with
the persons in fault. No amount of good which
such festival can accomplish is sufficient to
compensate for the lives which have been lost
by it. One man killed by the fall of q rickety
bulet-screen, and three persons killed outright
and two severely if not mOrtally wounded by
stray shots-these are dear price to pay for
a weeks pleasurng. And it is aggravating to
reflect that, if the arrangements had been rea-
sonably good, they need not have occurred at
all
New-York tribune., 1868-07-07

Representatives of all the Governments of
Europe save one-that of the Pope-are at
this moment assembled in Vienna to improve
the telegraphic communion which now exists
among nearly all the civilized nations of the
world. The Convention meets in accordance
with stipulation in the Telegraphic Convention
signed at Paris in 1865. The members of the
Conventions were. oil the 12th of June, well
coined by Chancellor Won Beust who expressed
the hope that the improvement and extension
of the telegraphic system would be one of the
surest means to preserve and consolidate a
universal peace
