trade. It is solf-evident, therefore, that the
spread of free trade principles which is now in
progress, and the fresh interest and activity
with which the question Is discussed, are emi-
nently fitted to encourage the hopes OF the
Democratic party.
Il is true that our representation in Congress
is small and out of all proportion to the numbers
of the Democratic party; but we labored under
the same disadvantage last year, when a pOliti-
clan so experienced and sagacious rs Chief
Justice Chase desired to be our candidate for
President, in full fath--a faith shared by many
Republcans-tha he could be elected. He may
have been mistaken; but his willingness to be
the Democratic candidate, and the desire of
many Republicans to vote for him as such, prove
how little the party is damaged in public estima-
tiOn by what the Post calls its ''war record
And rs the war recedes more and more into the
past the Misrepresentation and obloquy with
which the party was loaded during the contest
will rapidly fade out of the public mind. Had
the Democratic National Convention made no
mistakes last year, the party would either have
elected its candidate for President, or have come
very near electing him; and surely its prospects
are every way brighter now than they were four
years ago.

The English papers are loud in their COM
plants about the neglect of the graves of British
soldiers in the Crimea and at Scutari. Our an
nual floral festivals. which commemorate the
victims of our war, must convince the world
that in this particular we are more fortunate
than the mother country Not that we are
any more given to mere thoughtess emotion
than the English, but our people are more
demonstrative and more liberal in the display of
their Sympathies Moreover, the genius of our
institutions impels us to pay that homage TO the
rank and file of our army and navy which in
Europe is reserved only for a few great captains.
And then the surviving relatives of the men who
fell in the service of their country feel gratfed
by the pOsthumous honors paid to their kindred,
while, at the same time this annual tribute ac-
qures more and more national significance,
and cements a love of peace by periodically re-
mnding the country of the ravages of war.
At the International Congress assembled in
1867 at Geneva, to provide for the better treat
ment of soldiers wounded in battle, the wise
men cOngregated there incredulOusy listened.
rs if to n story of Haroun-el-Rashid, to the
narrative of the marvels of humanity achieved
by our Sanitary Commissions and the indefati-
gable charity of American women. Now they
will learn that, after having taken care of our
wounded soldiers with tenderness unknown
outside the realms of romance, we surround
the graves of the dead with panoply of reve-
renee and love equally unprecedented in the
annals of mankind and relieved from the taint
of sentimentality by a vigorous national spirit
that knows how to honor the manhood which
shrank from no sacrifice, either of life or for
tune, in order to preserve the integrity OF the
Republic.
No such stories about the neglect of soldiers
graves as those which sadden the columns of the
London Times are to be found in American pa
pers. We trust that the example exhibited by
us will have an inspiring influence abroad, and
relieve Europe from the hideous aspect OF the
neglected graves of those who have fallen on
the Old World battle-felds.

CUBA AND THE NEW CAPTAIN GENERAL.
Erlru The N Y HernR

from the ", j. HefUWs
Our recent advices from Spain state that Gene
raj Dulces urgent kilograms to be relieved of his
government of Cuba have been acceded TO. He
has probably been compelled to take this step by
the condition of his health, which is very far
from being gOod but no doubt the situation of
Spanish affairs there has much influence i'll
augmenting the urgency OF his request. The
Captain Generally of that Spanish colony has
ceased to be the easy and profitable position
which 1t was up to recent date. Ihree years
is the established term for holding the office but
shorter period has been the usual practice for
many years past; and yet of the many captain
generals who have been sent out from Spain since
the time of Wives, who governed forty years ago,
every one, excepting only General Ezpeleta, has
the public reputation OF having returned Il mil
lonaire TO the peninsula.
Events which have trmspred during the last
SIX months have materially changed the value OF
the ONCE. Revolution has oyerthrown the
spanish authority in One-half of the island and
made It's tenure very precarious in the other.
Inc cuban leaders have decreed the abolition of
slavery, and with this decree the African slave

as it was to the old governors sent TO the

surprising that the once coveted Office goes a
begging. Months since General Dulce sent his

ADVICE no -,HILADELPH1ANs.

From the n. Y. World
The Philadelphia papers exult over New York
in their freedom from those disa sters which made
week Monday such blue one for New York, but
which also-and this is the silver lining to the
dismal clOud-enliven the newspapers OF city
and make them vendible. There is something
like life in belonging to a town which can fur
nish so many frst-class horrors In single day,
and which possesses newspapers capable of
spreading them promptly before you in all their
awful proportions. Philadephians escape these
horrors but they escape them at the cost of
undergoing another horror more trightiul than
them al-the horror of being Philadelphinns.
Surely every right-mindcd man would rather
come TO New York and be blown off steam
boat, or otherwise done to death in an exciting
and expeditions manner than to drag out
wretched and stagnant cXistenccin Philadelphia
Think what Borie. for instance, would have
been saved if he had only come to New York
and been dubbed to death by playful policeman

would have had a neat and full obituary of him.

logists. Die, and leap to everlasting fame. 70
be sure, you may get killed if you stay in Phila-

Philadelphia papers would never find it out.
When anything does happen in Philadelphia,
say once in five years those journals have
nothing to say about it until they copy it from
the World. Witness the case of Hester Vaughan.
Witness the case ofiTwitchell Witness the case
of FOrney. You had better see New York and
die. You really had. You won't be missed by
anybody if you are the average Philadelphian.
And if you should be, we will send a copy of the
World, containing a full, true, and particular
account of your last hours, to your bereaved
friends free of charge. And it is absurd to sup
pose that they would not derive more comfort
and consolation from that than from the pro-
longation OF your existence.

GENERAL BUFFERS POLICY.

From the ~ Y. Times
General Buffers address at Gloucester on
Saturday, at the meeting to decorate the graves
of Union soldiers, was in the main appropriate
and in good taste. We do not see the wisdom or
policy of the eXhOrtatiOns with which IL closed,
to keep in memory the evil England did us dur
inc our war, and to nurse n feeling of eternal
resentment therefor England's course, GER
tanly, was not friendly TO us-but it was quite
as friendly as was that OF France or that of
Spain; why, then, should she be singled out for
such enduring resentment, wmle other nations
equally culpable are tacitly forgiven 1t is well
established, a historical fact, that duhng the
war the Emperor Napoleon proposed to recog-
niZe the Confederate Government on condition
that England would join him IN so doing; and
nothing but the peremptOry refusal of the Eng
lish Government prevented his doing So Yet
General Butler has nothing to say of the un-
friendly action of France, and no eXhortation
for Americans to cherish undying resentment
against the French for this act of her Govern
ment.
General Butler is understood to be in favor
of war with England, not only as means of
Furnishing her for her hostile action during the
war but as a means of promoting the growth
and enhancing the prosperity of onr own coun-
try. That question is certainly open to argu-
ment and there is no reason why General But
Ter should not seek to make converts to his view
of the case The closing paragraphs of his
Gloucester speech may be intended TO accomplish
that purpose. We are not greatly alarmed at
his prospect of success. Past experience shows
that the great body of the American people are
accustomed to take more calm and dispassionate
views of exciting public questions than the
English: and we have no doubt that they will
decide this issue wisely and with due regard to
the public welfare.
General Butler not only fayors war with Eng
land. but the harshest rigors of martial law
towards the people of the Southern States for
the snnnresston of crime We have no sympathy
with the policy, or the feeling which prompts it,
in either case The paramount necessity of the
country is peace and the growth which peace
cannot fail to give us. And we have very little
doubt that we shall have it, in spite of General
Butler If not with his help. The duty OF the
hour, in our view, is rather to allay than to
arouse reseptments either towards the people Of
the Southern States or towards England.

IMPORTANT FROM PERU-THE RECOGNI.
TION OF CUBA
From the N y. Herald.


From the NJ y. Herald
We have the important intelligence that "Peru
has recognized the Cuban patriots as belliue-
rents, and has decided to grant them all the
privileges attendant on that character" This
solves the mystery of those two Peruvian IRON
clads bought in this country and ut present
lowering within nights steaming of Havana
Peru, in short means in this declaration of bel
ligercnt rights the reOpening of her war with
Spain and Chill and Ecuador will back Peru
The opportunity is inviting for decisive settle
ment on their part with Spain, and in serving
Cuba they will serve themselves Whether those
two iron-clads will be sold to the Cubans or held
in reserve for a crack at the Spanish fleet before
Havana, the fact will shortly be made known.
That those two Peruvian war ships in the West
Indian waters are intended for a deadly blow ut
Spain cannot be doubted, and Peru has had sufli-
Gent provocaton to justify it.
As for the Peace Conference proposed by the
United States, and agreed upon by Spain, Peru,
Chilli, and Ecuador, it may be considered as dis
misscd and if so we may have declaration of
the renewal of hostilities from those Peruvian
ships in front of Moro Castle. The cause of the
Cubans is wonderfully Frightening. Several de-
tachments of warlille flibusters from the United
States, with valuable supplies of artillery small
arms and ammunition, ETC., have got into the
island. And they have already turned the tide
OF the war to active and successful offensive
operations. Now, with Peru following the eX-
ample of Mexico in the matter of belligerent
rights the Cabinet at Washington ought to feel
ashamed OF It's tlmldlty ana delay especially
with the encouraging and emphatic resolution of
the House of Representatives in behalf of deci-
sive action on this subject.
A proclamation of beligerent rights to the
Cubans from President Grant would now settle
the question in Cuba in less thau month. In
fact, the Peruyians may settle it within that
time; but what a sorry settlement this would be
for the United States We expect the anneXa-
tion of the island of Cuba; we want it, and we
ought not to depend upon the unaided efforts of
other friends of liberty to secure the prize. We
say that General Grant ought to be ashamed of
this sort of American dignity and decorum. 1t
is nonsense, it is stupid old fogyism, and we
have had enough of it. Dignity, the fitness of
things, and the cause of peace and humanity call
for the intervention of the United States in this
business in some decisive form. To avoid the
complications and entanglements which other
wise may follow, General Grant should at once,
in behalf of the Cubans, issue his proclamation
of belgerent rights for, from present indica-
tiOns, this is the form which, after ALL our
reparaton for English belligerent rights willhaye
to take.

however and the Spanish Ministry have ap-

the difficulties of the situation. The approach
ing change of command, combined with the ad-
vent of the rainy season, will have the effect to
prevent much activity in military operations on
the part of the Spanish forces, aud the new
Captain-Ge will find plenty of work on his
hands when he arrives at his post.
