Political Conventions.

The season of political conventions ana
active campaigning follows close upon The
summer fashionable season atfthe seaside and
the springs This year, as Che diminishing
will be applied to the Presidential prospect,
we are promised lively times in most Of our
coming State elections. The democrats and
conservatives of Tennessee held their State
Convention at Nashville on Wednesday. and
from tho reports received it appears that ex-
President Johnson was not considered the right
kind of timber for an old line democratic Gov
ernor. However, as the democrats have sure
possession of the State they can do as they
please in reference to MIR. Johnson The
Massachusetts, republicans will hold their
State Convention on the 7th Of October, and
then we shall doubtless have statement from
General Butler of his case. He has not yot
tans.
In Nebraska the liquor prohibitionists will
hold their State Convention on the I'd of
September, the republicans on the 9th, the
independents on the 9th and the democrats ON
the 10th. Coming in last, it is supposed that
the democrats are maneuvring for coalition
with the independents or grangers against the
republicans, and they may get it. The New
York Republican State Convention will be held
at Utica on the 23d of September, when it ia
expected that from Senator Conkling and
Senator Fenton the pipe Of peace will be
passed around to the liberal republicans. But
General Cochrane and his convention will
have word OF two to say upon this proposed
coalition and the efforts of the republicans to
carry it through may signally fail.
In Louisiana the republicans have held
their convention; but the terrible row therein
between Kellogg and Pinchback promises q
good opening for the democrats in the Stats
election.
The New York herald., 1874-08-21

Is IT CONSISTENCY ?-The third resolution
of the Pennsylvania republican platform de-
clares that ''the movement for the formation
of the new constitution was made and carried
to completion under its auspices" 'Its"
refers to no noun, but no doubt the repub-
lcan party is meant But did the Convention
forget how the republicans in Philadelphia
tried to defeat the constitution and how the
Mayor declined to be 'put in a hole, when
the attempt to ''count it out" was made by
sundry unknown persons2 The boast is
hardly consistent With this record
The New York herald., 1874-08-21

GERMANY AND PoRro RIco.-An evening con-
temporary, speaking of the probable deter
mination of the German government to ac-
quire foothold in the West Indies, says -
1--WE feel by no means satisfied with the
manner of Mr.. Fishs denals and although
the present rumor rests ON the uncorroborated
assertions of Papist and Carlist Journal
yet those assertions are so positive and cir
cumstantial that in ordinary prudence the
people of the United States should at least
bear in mind what Porto Rico is and what
are our relations to it," Just so.
The New York herald., 1874-08-21

example To persist, therefore, would compel
the republican party to antagonize him in a
way which it has hitherto avoided. Nor is this
all. Even the silence which he has main
tanned SO long upon the question of third
term cannot now be continued without excit-
ing still more the suspicious of his party. He
cannot, with safety to himself, permit Mosby,
Kemper, Gordon, and postmasters generally,
to parade him before the country as candi-
date, and we think he is too prudent to allow
any one to place him in such an unpleasant
position as he held at Harrisburg. He surely
cannot wish any more resolutions indorsing
him in the event of third term nomination
to be ''voted down with loud shouts of disap-
provaL" Silence is his worst possible policy,
and it was the cause of the rebuke Just ad-
ministered to him. Now Pennsylvania has
given him good opportunity to
speak Long ago he should have acted upon
the advice of the HERALD and have declared
that he would not be q candidate for the
Presidency in 1876; but it is not too late.
An announcement from General Grant to this
effect would make the closing years of his
administration peaceful and prosperous; it
would give him an iuustrious place in Ameri-
can history; it would free the republican
party from its present condition Of restraint,
and, finally, it would bid the approaching
ghost Of Caesar to gather around him his
spectral robes and fade again into the dark
ness from which he rose. But if the President
refuses to speak these noble words for his
own honor and his countrys good he will be-
come inevitably banished man. A new
Coriolanus, he will go forth from his repub-
lican Rome to lead against his old friends the
democratic Volsces of the West and South. If
in such a conflict he should fail the loss would
be irreparable. while if he should win his ruin
would be complete.
Thou know'st, great son,
The end Of wars uncertain but THIS Is certain,
That If tnou conquer Rome, the benent
Which thou shalt thereby reap Is such name
Whose repetition VIII be dOgg'd with curses,
Whose chronicle thus writ:-''rhe man was noble,
But with his last attempt ne wiped IL out,
Destroyed his country, and his name remains
To the ensuing age abhorred."
The New York herald., 1874-08-21

CHINA AND JApAN.-Is it possible that the
change in the Chinese policy with regard to
Formosa is due to intrigues among the foreign
embassies? Russia wants an island in the
East just as Germany desires one in the West.
The Gar might become an excellent mediator
for China and Japan, especially in his own
behalf Still everything ought to continue all
right so long as Minister Bingham remains at
his post lie is great and good man who
never hacked cherry tree, told a lie or took
stock in the Credit Mobilier.
The New York herald., 1874-08-21

SENATOR SooTT knows very well how poll
tician can ride two horses at once, but he is
puzzled to see how two politicians can ride
one horse. This perplexity has been caused
by the action of the Pennsylvania Convention
in declaring for Hartranft for the Presidency
after the electoral vote had been pledged 70
Blaine. How both were to receive the vote
of Pennsylvania he could not understand, aud
sths more be thought Of it the more impos-
sible it seemed" But suppose that after
Hartrnnft has been used as battering ram
against the third term movement he is satisfied
with the compliment of the Conventions

The BATTLE OF EsrELLA The most i'm
portant battle yet fought between the Carlists
and the republicans was undoubtedly that
of Estella, at which General Concha was
killed, and the full and picturesque
letter which we publish to-day will be
read with unusual interest. While we
think our correspondent has exaggerated
the significance of this victory to the Carlists,
there is no question about the value of his
analysis OF the situation and his explanation
of the reasons upon which Don Carlos bases
his faith in ultimate success. At the time he
wrote the intention of Germany and the other
great Powers to recognize the Republic was
unknown, but their action has changed the
entire aspect of Spanish affairs. Its effect is
not yet seen in the field, but soon will be.
