The Netc- York Times places us under obir-
tions by calling attention to the fact that TsE
TRIBUNE's special telegraphic report of u
battle of Gravelotte was published in IN
London Ne,cs Our modesty would have pr
vented any mention of the matter; but snf'
The Times has called public attention to it. W
will be pardoned for explaining that TH'
TRIBUNE has of late been under the necessty
of furnishing the news to its English as vel
as its American contemporaries. The LOsd''

correspondent by virtue of an agreement VIZ

Gen. STEWART l.. WOODFORD was last
evening nominated as the Republican candi'
date for next Governor of our State. We hail
this az an eminently wise and fortunate Sc
lection. Gen. Woodford is still young; but
not so young as were Daniel ID. Tompkins
and William H. Seward when first chosen
Governor, while he has already done
good service as an advocate OF Republican
principles on the stump, as soldier IN the
War for the Union, and as Lieut.. .-GovcrnOr OF
our State. to which office he was elected in
1866 by a larger vote and majority than those
of Gov, Fenton, who headed the ticket. Cen.
Woodford is popular with the soldiers,
who asked for his nomination, and
with the young men of our State, who regard
him as their exemplar and chief. He can be
elected-he NUT be! Let every Republican
do his duty, and New-York this Fall resumes
her proper place at the head of the Republican
column Forward Republicans! to the struggle
and the victory!
There are possibly some Republicans in the
State who will work more energetically and
efficiently for the election of Gen. WoOdfOrd
by knowing that two weeks ago that gentle
man proposed. in case Horace Greeley
would say that he desired the
nomination, to withdraw his claims
az a candidate, and to exert whatever of infu-
ence he might possess to secure Mr.. Greeiey's
nomination and election. This Mr.. 6. declined
to do. preferring to leave the Convention
entirely untrammeled that it might nominate
its strongest man.
No further nominations had reached Us at
the time Of putting this paper to press.

THE TRIBUNE has been for two years very properly
demanding the abolition OF all penalties for rebellion aaa

of the Gratz-BrOwn faction is but pretext.
They had long ago resolved to bolt if ma
iority of the Convention should stand by Gov.
McClurg; and, if one pretext did not serve, they
would have invented another.
Northumberland is certain to be carried
b. an overwhelming majority. Ii will be sup
ported by 1. The Democrats and enfranchise'
ex- Rebels to man. 2. The boilers; 3. A largs
portion of the regular Republicans. 1t is M
more necessary to vote for Gratz Brown N
Missouri to carry this measure than to vote for
John L. Hoffman in this State.
The question of Reenfranchisement having
been submitted by the Legislature TO the People
we think the People should be left free b
vote upon it as they shall severally see ht
This is the natural and usual way; and ths
boilers depart from it only to excuse their bai
and secure the Democratic vote for theu
ticket. That is the whole story.

German shoulders. but precisely whose is not
yet settled. The Crown Princess of Prussia is
still young, but, like her royal mother Of En-
gland, she has no love of dress, and is alto
gethcr too practical to succeed as leader of
fashion Her sister-in law, Alexandra, Prin-
cess of Wales has too many domestic cares to
think Of There is the little Princess Alice
Maud, wife of Prince Louis of Hesse who may
take up the scepter but of her tastes in that
direction nothing is known. But it is clear
that Berlin is hereafter to have the credit as
well "a the labor of devising and setting the
fashions. The fashion plates and fashion
papers of Paris have always been of Berlin
origiu fact only recognized since the reproduc-
ton of the Berlin Bdrar was begun in this
country. During the past season many of the
first New-YOrk merchants bought their sup
plies in Berlin instead of at Paris. Local modisteS
have latterly turned to the former city for
their supplies, and have studied the styles, like
so many Jenny Wrens, under the Lindens,"
instead of on the BOulevards. Whether or not
therefore, Germany obtains the domain of
Alsace and Lorraine, she has already control
of that of Fashion, and it is of little conse-
ouence to the dressmakers whether or not
Bismarck dictates peace to Paris, since 1t il
assured that Berlin is hereafter to dictate
styles to the world.

The French citizens of New-YOrk cOntem-
plate demonstration in honor of the prOcla
nation of the Republic. The Germans here
propose a mass meeting in celebration of the
triumph of the German arms at Sedan Why
should not the two races join in one grand
celebration of their mutual triumph for such
it isl 1t is not France that Germany has
beaten. Rather it is both free peoples who
have overcome despised Despotism, and
it is this triumph that is to be celebrated. In
such demonstration, French, Germans and
Americans can heartily unite. The French may
not recognize it now, while yet chagrined at de-
feat in the field but they will hereafter con-
cede that the victory of Sedan was a triumph
of France not less than of Germany. Ii has
forever protected Germany from invasion it
has rid France Of.NapOleOn forever. At Sedan,
Despotism was as surely overthrow as Slavery
was slain at Appomatox; and in the final re-
suits of our war and that of Our friends abroad,
victOrs and vanquishcd find equal benefits in
enlarged liberty and greater progress in en-
lightenment. France never saw a bitterer day
Europe never knew a brighter one-than that
of September /.

CAMPAIGN TRIBUNE.

The Republicans of the Empire State have
resolved that the rule of a minority, founded
in conspiracy and achieved by systematic fraud,
shall terminate with the year 1870. Congress,
according to their earnest prayers, having
passed acts whereby the fabrication of fraudu-
lent naturaIizations, the polling of Illegal votes
and the willful miscounting of votes actually
cast, if perpetrated at any election where Rep
resentatives in Congress or Presidential Elec-
tors are chosen, are henceforth to be regarded
as crimes against the Union, and the whole
power of the Government devoted to their ex-
posure, defeat, and punishment, there is ample
reason for our trust that there can be no future
repetition of the gigantic crimes whereby our
elections have for years been Systematically
vitiated, and whereby Grant and COlfax were
defrauded Of the Electoral Vote of New-York.
The City of New-YOrk can nevermOre be
the scene of such fragrant and scandalous false
voting and miscOunting as that of '6S, when
she was made to give over Sixty Thousand
majority for Seymour and Blair-at least half
of it fraudulent-while they were beaten over
Fifty Thousand in the remaining counties.
Let the rural districts but give assurance that
they will do their part in the coming struggle,
and the Republicans of the Commercial En-
porium will be animated and inspired to make
the efforts necessary to prevent Illegal Voting
and MiScountng in this citadel of Misrule and
Corruption.
What is now needed is a general knowledge
of the fact that the City Of New-York will do
all that is needed to insure the defeat of
Tweed, Hoffman g. Co., if the interior and the
sister islands will but emulate her enthusiasm
her energy, and her confidence. TO ditfusC

1t is a relief to know that the Ministry at
Paris at last recognize the utter absurdity OF
the attempt to renew the conflict and that
they are begging the other Powers to inter
cede Next they will do what ought to have
been done in the first place and treat directly
with the advancing Germans. Our latest
specials from the French Capital represent in
strong language the piteous condition of the
army within its walls The 10000 Reserves,
who are all that remain of the once proud
army Of France, are utterly demOralized.
There are besides $4,000 National Guards,
10000 Gardes Mobiles, 5000 armed Volunteers
in all. a force of $4,000 undisciplined men to
defend Paris against 100000 trained soldiers
of the best organized army of Europe. There
are no guns for the pOpulace, if the populace
could be trusted with arms; there Is not
enough ammunition for one battle, and utter
despair prevails. The condition of Paris Is
worse than that of Sedan, and the Capital Is
not more defensible than was the little old
town on the Belgian frontier. The people
demand peace on any terms, and the Ministry
will be forced by public sentiment to ask 1t
when the Prussians are day or two nearer
approached to Paris. The danger is that they
nav blindly delay too long, dreading an act
which is not their humiliation, but the dis,
honor of the Emperor, who sought safety in
surrender and the excitement which will nat
urally follow the appearance of the Prussians
may in consequence result in riot and blood
shed. We trust the Ministry will be wiser
and that before the end of the week we may
announce that Peace has been agreed upon.

Germany dares do any act it wills and it is
the surest protection and the greatest safety
of France that this enlightened nation
dares do only that which its free
people feel to be just and honorable.
France was powerless to prevent Napoleon
and olivier from robbing, Or attempting to
rob, Germany but Germany is strong enough
to prevent King William and Bismarck from
destroying France, as they easily might if not
restrained by German sentiment and their own
reason and humanity.
The French people have seen all this before
their Ministers have recognized it. They have
repudiated instinctivey the responsibility for
the war; They have seen, lntultlvely as 1t
were, the utter -hopelessness OF the struggle,
and have abandoned it. II this Ministry and
this Government does not secure peace-and
that soon, too-it will be blotted out by the
