Ew YORK HERALD SATURDAY, MAY 81 1s7l-TRIPLE SHEET

awakening that the democrats begin to open
their eyes, and begin to see the folly Of
their efforts to resist or to ignore
those imprints upon the constitution,
stamped upon it, as Mr.. John Quincy Adams
puts it, ''by the mailed hand of war;" CYou
are right. This Park is rapidly improving our
horses. The English Joint High Commissioners
say that the turnout hers is equal to the dis
play in Hyde Park and its Rotten Row In ine
horses, though not in fine liveries; but old
Tom Jefferson would say we have little too
much of that sort of thing, and we must not
forget Old Tom.
The Connecticut elections, and Senator Nor
tons movements at Washington to shape the
fight of 1872 for General Grant upon these
new amendments of the constitution, which,
in a condensed form, are the issues Of the
war, walked up the democracy. These vine
clad bowers are another pretty feature Of this
Continent, we want in our parks, Mr.. Sweeny,
all the shade and shady retreats we can get. ]
Accordingly, we find Mr.. John Quincy Adams
first coming to the front for these new amend
ments, and then Mr.. vallandigham, of Ohio,
thoroughly convinced at last with his Mont
gomery democrats Of the old red-hot school,
and then the Pennsylvania democracy, in their
State Convention, Jerry Black and all This
is, indeed, a new departure. This Is our ia
vorite skating lake-a handsome little sheet
Of water. This terrace is little bit Versail-
lish in its oppressive artifcialities; but the
lake, with its general surroundings, is grace
fully natural, as 1t should be- OF course,
State by State, North and South, the democ-
racy will fall in with Pennsylvania, SO that,
by the year 1872, they will be relieved Of the
deadweights of the war which, in 1864 and
1868, broke them down.
What then, Is the prospect? Look about
u.s. Look at this lovely picture of woods and
fields and lakes and fountains and rambles
and walks and drives and summer houses and
cafes. and at these pretty groupings Of shrub
berry and flowers, and mark how fresh and
sweet the air is coming from the close and
heated city. Such is the prospect to the
democracy from the abandonment Of their
hostility to the fixed facts stamped upon the
constitution by the ENABLED hand of war;"
This new departure is like an invitation to
leave the Five Points for the Central Park
and drive to the High Bridge. Let the
democratic party, now that the men of Penn
sylvania have cleared the track, bring out
General Sherman as their candidate on tho
constitution and the Ku Klux question, and,
instead of meandering about for another gene
ration in the Dismal Swamp of dead issues,
they may, even in 1872, and almost certainly
in 1876, advance to the enjoyments of the
White House and the national Capitol and the
gardens thereof which, in political sense at
least, completely eclipse Mr.. Sweeny and the
glories Of his Central Park.
