MATAMoRAs April 30.-A reinforcement of
300 of government troops from Tampico land
ed at Bagden to-day with $4,000. Coinia's
Cavalry, with 800 infantry, went to assist them
in Landing and enable them to reach the city as
it was understood that the RevolutlOnlstS would
attempt to cut them off.
Trevinos main force is still above the city
some miles, not having advanced since yester-
day. The black flag is still being displayed
from the Notifications around the city. The
United States Consul has represented to Ceval-
os that should the besieging forces take the city,
the exhibition of such a flag might be used as
pretext by the RevoutiOnists to show no quar-

were compelled to remain inside the city on ac-

The Spanish Uprising.
LONDON, May Especial correspondents of
| the London papers chronicle several miu0r en-
gagements in which the Oarlists were success
full. They also state that assertions from the
Royal forces are very numerous. The city OF
Pompeluna seems to be the objective point OF
the Carlists, who are concentrating their forces
with view to attacking the place. The COM
mander OF royal garrison there telegraphs 10
Madrid that four companies of his troops have
deserted and asks for reinforcements.
1t is reported that seven Carlists prisoners,
including priest and a notary, were shot by
Royal troops. The Carlists hold hostages to
await confirmation of the report.
Notabilities of the town of Orduna, in the

Sage Counsel from an Old Democrat,

Sage Counsel from az Old Democrat.
prom the KIngWood JournIll
The effort now being mAde-not by the
Democratic pArty-but by the Greeley
party, 10 sectionAlize political parties,
bodes no good Tor the future Of our coun'
tfy.
In 1880, ambitious politicians intent
on their individual promotion, lost sight
Of the best interests OIL their common
country, and divided parties essentially
by geographical lines, and we all can re.
member the dreadful consequences; and
Il should be q warning 10 all loVefS OF
their country 10 avoid similar stat OF
things.
The argument presented by some DO.
litical Sgitston, that the party now IN
power Is intolerAnt, Is not true. A few
men like Sumner may have advocated
harsh and extreme measures against their
political sdyerSaTies and the conquered
people Of the South, and In some instAn-
ces may have succeeded In their mistaken
Il not wicked purposes,
The present dominant party Il princi.
pally composed oi. the old Wing and Ma
tionsl Democratic parties, or the loyal
men Of al parties, that during the war
favored the preservation OF the Union
This party has not been intolerant OF
selfish.
Mr.. Lincoln, when he came into power,
took into his Cabinet a fair representa-
ton Of National Democrats. This liber.
al course was well received by the great
masses OF the people. and az the Presi.
dental election Of 1884, Andrew John
son, 4 lie long Democrat, was put on the
ticket for Vice President. In 1858 the
sumo great party selected as their candi-
date for President, Gen. Grant, another
lifelong Democrat; and the same party
now proposes 10 re-elect him. Where
can you find in all this, one mark Of in
tolerance towards the members OF the
Democratic party:
l might refer, 10 prove the correctness
OF my views, 10 the recent election Of
Gov. Jacob by the Republican party Of
West VirginIA-not because he was Re.
publican, bat because he was an hoResl
Democrat. The truth Is, If Sumner,
Greeley and few more lifelong AbOli-
tionisB and agiLAtors would leave the Re.
publican party and join the present So
called Democratic party; the present
ruling party, with Grant as its standard
bearer, would be the great National
Democratic party Of the country, If not
in name in principles.
The great objection which Sumner, in
his former letter 10 the negroes, urges
against Grant Is, that he Is Democrat.
II is an old trick for bad men to adopt
q popular name; but It is the province Of
good and wise men to detect the vol in
sleeps clothing.
1t is not denied that many good and
patriotic men are now found acting with
the mongrel, so.cslled Democrats. Buck.
alew, oil Pa, and Hendricks, Of Ind, NAV
be referred to as examples; but It is a
pity that they should be found in q false
position. Still great and good men, in
all ages ofthe world, have gone astrsy,
and We may hope to see good men return
to their proper position.
