MUTUAL ExpLANATIoN.- THAT "plain
tale" of the Dispatch has disposed of us,
no doubt, to its entire satisfaction but, to
an individual Of the male kind who has
left his usual abiding place and perched
himself upon the waving bough of a ma
jestic forest production, it is not exhibited
in the same light
After our article had been written and
sent to press we Guessed" the Dispatch
would get the best of us. aud would be
able TO satisfy its readers how and why it
left out the important part of the action of
the Ohio convention and not wishing to
be crushed SO numerically, we immedi-
ately ordered "our foreman" to leave it
out, but he didn't. Thus, "our foreman" ;"
who is a clever fellow, is responsible for
our calling attention to the matter.
We accept your apology, Mr.. Dispatch,
and assure you that we have the highest
possible regard for the ingenuity which
you invariably display when in a tight
place.

teachings of the fathers of the Demo
cratic party. This is all good enough SC
far as it goes, but then the Ohio Demo.
Gratis showed their real sentiments better
when they adopted this resolve:
FyM-While the fundamental law as ex-
| pressed in the constitution is necessarily para.
mount until abrogated as prescribed by that
instrument, all legislation is in its nature and
purpose temporary and subject to change,
modihcation or repeal at the will of the ma jor-
ity OF the people as expressed through the law
making power, and that the pretense that any
act OF Congress, not executed or spent, or any
legislative policy of party is an absolute fnality,
is totally inconsistent with the whole theory of
government, and that it is the unquestionable
right of the people of themselves, and through
their representatives at each successive elec-
ton and in each successive Congress, 10 Judge
what legislation is necessary, proper, or ap-
propriate, to carry into execution or enforce
the central powers, rights and duties of the
Federal government.
This, if 1t means anything, means that
all laws that have been passed TO carry
into effect the fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments shall be abrogated and re-
pealed as soon as the Democratic party
gains power. This view is strengthened
by the action of strong minority, which
did not find fault with this plank, but in-
sisted that the previous ones recognizing
the existence of the fourteenth and fif-
teenth amendments should be stricken out.
This minority asked that the resolutions be
recommitted, so that all references to the
three amendments should be stricken out
This motion received 147 votes ont of s93
Subsequently resolution to declare the
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments
revolutionary and void" received 1863
votes out Of 465. This minority so fright
ened Vallandigbam and bis friends that
they Insisted on the previous question
the adoption of the original resolution-a
motion that was never before made in an
Ohio Democratic Convention No wonder
the minority called out in open convention
that the Democratic party had been sold
out, and that some of them Withdrew from
all participation in the proceedings. They
at least were honest. They could not eat
all their resolves of the last ten years
under the operations of parliamentary
gag law.

The Bourbon Fusion.
lFrom the New York Tribune, I

The report of the Bourbon fusion is
confirmed by the debate in the Assembly
at Versailles A motion was made to
abrogate all laws of prescription, as sub
serving only the injustice aud hatreds of
dynastles, and not 10 conformity with true
civil freedom aud an amendment was
proposed relating to the laws which pre-
vent the Princes of the two branches of
the House Of Bourbon from living in
France. The Assembly also took up the
question of the validity of the elections
of the Prince de Joinville and the
Duke of Aumale, and made it the
order of the day for Monday next.
The vote upon this question will give
some indication of the strength of
the new coalition, and if these two
able and estimabe sons of Louis Philippe
are admitted to their places in the Cham
Der, as is their right, nucleus for the
restoration party will be at once furnished
in the very heart of the legislative power.
They are ready to assume their seats as
soon as they are declared entitled to them.
In spite of the Napoeonic DEGREES which
banished them from France in the early
days OF the Empire, and of the Republi-
can orders which confirmed the Bonapart.
ist outrage few months ago, tbey have
not quilted France, but have remained at
the chateau of the Duke of Audlffrst-
Pasquier, not far from Versailles. awaiting
the progress OF events.
Their presence in the legislative body
will unquestionably give life and direction
to Bourbon efforts at restoration. But
they are honest men and sensible, as
princes go and though it is only natural
that they should prefer the purple of roy
atty to the black coat of the citizen. they
are not likely to attempt anything which
would be contrary to the evident wish of
the people of France. This much of prac-
tlcal Democracy they have learned in Eng
land and America. 1t the Republic sur
wives its present perils, as we earnestly |
hope it may, these Orleans princes will be |
false to every profession of their lives if |
they do not become good and useful citi- |
1ens of free France. They are better stuff |
.han the ordinary herd of mere princes.
and can sustain themselves in any commu-
atty, as men among men.

The Divisions In the Democratic
Party.
[From the New York Standard.

[From the New York Standard
The Democratic State Convention of
Ohio furnishes as good proof as we want
that the Democratic party is so divided as
to the principles to be inscribed on its BAN
ners, that it will not present solid front
to its Republican opponents at the next
Presidential election. 1t is true that the
Vallandigham wing of the party triumph
ed, but it is equally true that there was a
strong minority present who objected, and
finally insisted that "they had been sold
out to the Republicans. II was a peculiar
convention 1t put forth platform of
principles, and then nominated for the
standard bearer man who made speech.
kicking the platform from under him.
This nomination was made with view
to concilate those discontented with the
platform but the trick will be no more
potent than was the nomination of Gen.
Frank Blair to conciliate those Democrats
in their last National Convention who
wanted the reconstructed Southern State
governments overturned at the point of
the bayonet. The resolutions in brief ac-
cept the three last constitutional amend
ments, but insist that they shall be con-
strued in exact accordance with the
