It is now generally acknowledged that. since the Southern elections and the consequent re- action of public opinion st the North, the Presidential canvass has begun to wear quite a different aspect. A month or six weeks since the election of Lincoln was conceded as a fact accomplished by the sbrewdest judges in all parties; but now it really appears as if the con- servative element of the Empire State hus been aroused from its torpor, and is prepared to throw its vote solid against the black republi- can candidate. Day by day the new movement gains strength. The Douglas-Bell ticket receives new supporters every hour. What the con- servative movement needs now is a general demonstration by which its importance may be made known throughout the Union, to strengthen the hands of the faithful, to reas. sure the doubters, and to win new recruits to the army which bears upou its banners that noble motto—“The Union, the Constitution, and the Enforcement of the Laws.” It is time that the good and true men in this city—the commercial metropolis of the Union—came to- gether and discuared the political questions of the day from a high and dignified standpoint. New York is to be the battle ground, and here the plans of the campaign must be arranged. Under these circumstances. we are glad to be able to announce that a movement has already been commenced for a grand meeting of the op- ponents of Abraham Lincoln, to be held in this city during next month, and to be. we hope, entirely eeparate and distinct from any political clique or cliques whatsoever. This meeting should be a genuine demonstration of public feeling—a proclamation to the whole country from a city whigh, from its cosmopoli- tan character, great wealth aad immense popn- lation. wields an immense influence over the affairs of the nation. That at least two-thirds of the legal roters in this city and vicinity are op- pored to Lincoln there can be no doubt. New York is sound for the Uaton and the constitu tion. The metropolis is prepared to rebuke eectioralism and fanaticism. no matter in what part of the country they appear. Our material interests—leaving out of the question love of country. social ties. old friendships. aad the { thoneand and one little chaine which biad the hearts of neighbors one to another —demand that every mun shall do bie utmost to defeat the party which seeks to create dissension between the North and the South. and to carry out a line of policy which must | eventuate in disunion, anarchy and civil war. The merchants and mechanics of New York are thoroughly acquainted with the issue as it stands, The republicans have latterly become frightened, and some of them, like the Chera- lier Webb, are endeavoring to smooth over mat- ters a little. But it is too late. Helper's “fm- pending Crisis.” Seward’s “irrepressible con- flict,” Sumuer’s “sacred animosity.”’ and Love- joy’s blood, fire and murder theories, have al- ready been accepted as the ammunition of the party, and it is time that the guns of the black republicans were turned upon themselras, The fact that Lincoln's election would be the first step in a series of measures intended to cripple and degrade the South; that it will renew at Washington the infamous scenes of official cor- ruption which disgraced the fair fame of our State at Albany last winter, must be kept steadily before the people, and promulgated Move- =f. perst tehily thes Daud, preveur the ‘every Possible way, On the b meg as Yancey, who misre- attitude of the South and fo es of the people of that sec eive a telling rebuke, The South tmust'be notified, iv aymanuer which will admit pf no mistake, that the conservative masses of WNew You and the great Central States are still tne to the sacred compact sealed wjth the blood of our Revolutionury'sires. ¢ Such sould be the noble and patriotic ob- jeets of the great Union» demonstration. . No one cau be indifferent when the country isin 4 | onisis like the present, and it is particularly to be desired that gentlemen who have withdrawa from active participation in public life, or who have distinguished themselves in a path distinct from that of ‘politics, suould come forward now | and ‘put thetr shduldets to the’ wheel. ‘The po- liticians wil! come fast enough, and quite insea- ou for the spoils, their chief lookout. But we want the solid men—men who are indifferent to matters of self-interest, so far as politics. are concerned—to show their Hands and appear actively 4h thé Coming demonstration. The of- ficers of the meeting ‘should be selected from the real worth of the metropolis, and profes- sional politicians strictly tabooed. The speak- ers should be taken from the front rank of our orators and statesmen, and everything should be co arranged as to give that weight and dig- nity to the occasion which its importance de- mands. Sucb a meeting would have a tremen- dous effect all over the country, and do more towards defeating Lincoln than all the howlings of petty demagogues, were they kept up until doomsday. Spain a First Class Power—The New Phase of the Napoleontc Conflict. The question of admitting Spain as one of the great Powers of Europe is presenting the Napoleonic conflict with the old dynasties in new phase, and bringing new elements into the present European complications. The future existence of the Bonaparte family aa one of the dynasties of Europe depends upon the success of its present representative and head in breaking up the old order of things secured by the compacts of Vienna. To this end all his efforts are directed, and the desire of saving those treaties and territorial divisions animates the policy of all the old dynasties and their multiform connections among the Euro- pean aristoeracy. One of the most stringent stipulations of the Vienna treaties is that which binds all the Powers to the exclu- sion of «the family of Napoleon from the throne of France. The power and skill ot the Emperor prevents any present attempt to carry out this stipulation; but there are abun- dant evidences that, should there occur any era of weakness in his dynasty, the stipulation would be enforced in all its stringency, unless anew balance of Europe can be created, in which the Napoleonic dynasty shall be one of the chief counter weights. This is the work to which Louis Napoleon has addressed himself for twelve years, with consummate tact and ability, and against which the recent speech of Lord John Russell on the floor of Parliament was directed. This speech forms merely a landmark in the history of that, thus far, important resistance to the Napoleonic ideas. When Louis Napoleon laid aside the Presidential mantle to grasp the sceptre of France, he assumed the title of Na- poleon the Third. By this act he proclaimed the continuity of bis house as a dynasty from the time of its founder, and ignored all the stipula- tions of Vienna in regard to it. Step by step he bas secured the recognition of all the Powers of Enxrope, and though many of them entertain the belief that their acts are merely transitory ones, under the pressure of circumstances, and to be some day recalled as not binding. each act forms a precedent, and in ali things the accumulation of precedents is gradually converted by the lapse of time into binding law. The proclamation of dynastic vi- tality in December, 1851, was accepted by Eng- land. in order to seek a counterpoise to Russian aggrandizement in the East. This was follow- ed by the Crimean war, which caused Russia to concede the precedent of recognition to the continuity of existence in the Napoleonic dy- nasty. Italy came next, and there something further was required. Accordingly the old or- der of things is to be superseded by the estab- lishment of Italian unity, whose existence in the European schedule is bound up with that of Napoleonism and its balance of power. Now comes Spain as another Napoleonic ally; and Lord John Russell at once points out that if this plan goes on, ina short time the present five great Powers, including France, will hold only fiye-ninths of European representation, instead of the whole of it, as is now the case. Of course all these Powers protest against being thus cut down, This sew phase of Napoleonic tactice consists in Louis Napoleon baving found a substitate for bis first plan of gradually destroying the Vienna treaties by repeated European con- gresses, The Congress of Paris did much to advance his plans; bat althongh he hos subse- quently made several efforts to get similar con. ferences of the European Powers together, they “bave uniformly beaten him on this point. Eng- land bas been the leader in this opposition to the Napoleonic J. She seee clearly that if she goes into a congress she must be bound by the wili of the majority. or secede with the moral impression against her. The majority of European interests are not well disposed to the dominating nature of Britain's policy. parti- cvlarly when they are under the pressure of Napoleonic logic and surrounded with the wiles of Napoleonic skill. So. too, she is now the leader in opposing the recognition of Spain as a first clara Power. and Prussia follows her, while Austria accepts the proposition ander protest. What Russia will do yet remains to be seen. And bere comes up another point in the game. The French expedition to Syria is consented to by Eogiend, and allowed to go off there aloe, notwithstanding the jealousy that she has exhibited towards French influence in that region. She ix willing to bring France into a confiiet with Russian interests in the East, either tw break up some existing scheme regarding the European balance of power, or for the purpose of bringing new elements into that of Asia. All of these steps are but parts of the great struggle through which Europe seems to be stea- dily marching to a general war or general nation- al revolutions. Whichever comes, the wisdom of the American policy of avoiding entangling alliances will be cloarly seen, and that of its counterpart—that of fostering the union of these States—will become more evident to every miad, The New Union’ Movement=A Powertat Union” from South Caroline. ‘The letter which we publish thts morniyg, from | ‘the ‘Hom Bi F, ‘Perry, of Sonth Carolina: on the broad and general question of Union or. dis: union, in’connection with the anticipated élec- tion of Lincoln as our next Presideut, is aa ap- peal in bebalf of the Union to which every con- servative man, North and South, wil! cordially respond. But there are certain opinions embo- died in this letter, touching the valae of the tate democratic party as the special protestor of the Union, and in regard to the inevitable elec- tion of Lincoln, in which we think the writer in question flies somewhat wide of the mark. First, the democratic party, having fulfilled its mission, has fallen to pieces, according to the universal law of birth, growth, expansion, de- cay and dissolution. It was never as a party a nécéssary'bulwark to keep the Union toge- ther; but eo long as it was a Union party it kept itself tegether. It hegan to break into pieces from the moment it ceased to be regard- ed asa Union party by thinking men. In reality, however, the Union was the mere catchword, of the party in its palmiest days. The secret of | its adbesiveness to its party organization was in the spoils, or in what Mr. Calhoun so aptly called “the cohesive power of the public plun- der.” The spoils, too,if we probe into the heart of the subject, will be found to be more than the Kansas question, Lecompton, Dred Scott, squatter sovereignty, or the protection of slave property in the Territories, or the nigger in any ehape—the secret of the collapse of this late proud and ragged, and corrupt‘and domi- neering democratic party. The rich and luxu- rious spoils upon which it “waxed fat and kicked’’ were the real source of the, violent complication of diseases of which it has died. We have no regrets to express for its disso- lution, It is rather a matter for patriotic exul- tation. It has euffered only the fate of the old federal and republican parties, the old whig party, and the late great bluffing and blowing American or Know Nothing party. But from the scattered elements of the democratic, whig and Know Nothing parties a new and powerful Union party is in process of formation. From the South we have had the most encouraging manifestations in this direction, in the results of the late North Carolina, Kentucky and Mis- souri elections, and the supporters of Doug- las and Bell, whether acting independently or copjointly, are doing the work in the South of this new Union movement. It is the misfortune of Mr. Breckinridge that he is the candidate of the Seuthern disunionists, but he cannot com- plain of the consequences. We concur in the opinion of our South Caro- lina Union man that Bell will most probably carry the bulk of the Southern States; but we cannot perceive, under the circumstances, why this result is to be deplored. We shall accept it as the triumph of the Union over the dis- union elements of the South; and with this de- cisive reaction, thus foreshadowed in the South in favor of the Union, we turn to the North to see what is the prospect in this quarter. Mr. Perry considers Lincoln’s election in- evitable, looking simply at the republican par- ty as a unit, io its “irrepressible conflict” against the divided forces of the forlorn demo- cracy. In this light there could be no doubt of “Qld Abe's” election; but the contest is as- suming a new shape. In this State, for ex- ample, the work of a coalition between the Douglas and Bell parties has been consum- mated, and there is every reason to be- lieve that in a few weeks all the Union elements in this State opposed to Lincoln wili be concentrated upon a single electoral ticket. What will be the result? The conservative forces of New York opposed to the republican party, according to the elections of 1856, represent nearly fifty thousand majori- ty of our popular vote. This majority still ex- ists. It has not been brought out since the last Presidential contest. Our election statis- ‘tics show this all the way through. But this reserved Union vote will now be brought into service, and hence we cannot agree that “Old Abe Lincoln” is to walk over the course “with one-third of the popular vote of the Union.” New York, the Empire State, can defeat him, and will defeat him splendidly, with proper exertions for the fusion of her anti-bluck re- publican vote. We think that, as these exer- tions have been so favorably begnn, they will be continued until there shall be an irresistible concentration of our Union strength. Why not? The Albany Regency, Tammany Mall, old line democrats, old line whigs and Americans, have already joined hands, having discovered that the democratic paity is done for, and that a new order of things, new par- ties, new mea, new issues, new measures, are already shaping themselves out of the chaos of the broken up parties of the last tea years, and in favor of the Union, and against all disorganizers, North and South. It is absurd to talk of resuscitating this old democratic purty. It is dead. Let it be buried. Let the Albany Regency be commended for their good sense in abandoning all their old democratic rules, and regulations, and orders and platforms, and all such rubbish, to grapple with the living events aud necessities of the day. Their plan is the right plan. It is the coalition of all the forces opposed to Lincoln in this State upon a common electoral ticket. The work is already done to the extent of perhaps 275,000 voters, and before the expiration of Sep- tember our Union electoral ticket may produce a muster roll of over 300,000 men. And so we may even now pronounce “Old Abe Lincoln” defeated by this new Union revo- lution, commenced in the South and reacting upon the North, to the rescue of the Empire State and tbe federal government from the grasp of the disunien black republicans Awenican Lyterests iy THR Meprrern ans N.— The Mediterranean is at present, and is likely to be for some time to come, the theatre of eventa of the highest political importance. The fate of Naples will no sooner have been de- cided than the Syrian, the Venetian and the Hungarian questions will give occupation to the naval forces of the different governments. There will be interests to protect which will demand, on the part of all of them, a more than ordinary share of watchfuiness. Such is, in- deed, already the case, and we see the evidences of it in the vigilance with which England and France hasten a naval supervision in all the Italian ports. The only vessel-of-war that we have in the Mediterranean is a solitary gunboat—the Iro- quois, The Susquehanna was to have been sent as the flag ehip to that station, but the department has altered its intentions in regard to her, and has despatobed her to Vera Cruz. Our interests in the Mediterreacan are not Gulf; yét ‘they reGaire wlmost as mnch atten: tion as those in Mexico. We have the ti and properties of our citizens to protect id the outbreaks that ure continually ocourting, either from the ibroes of revolution or the excesses of fanaticism. There are only three stations’ 4t which It Is necessary for our governuigat) to keep large squadrons. These aré the Gliinese 5 seas, the Gulf of Mexico and the Mediterranean. In all of them an effective naval force should be maintained, and auy additional strength that may be deemed advisuble to give to one of them should not be given at the expense of the others. It is to be hoped that the depart- ment will bestow on the events now transpiring in the Levant their due share of consideration, and that it will immediately send there a force thai will be sufficient to afford protection to euch of our citizens us may be’ resident in its ports. Tue Horrs or Exeter Havt--Ins' Avance itn THY Rerop.ican Panry.—We have, been for some time in possession of the ‘fact that Rev. Fred. Douglass, nigger, and “Rev. Dr. Cheever, white man, of the Church of ‘the! Puri- tans in tbis city, but « nigger-worsbipper, had been diligently engaged in England col- lecting money, under the auspices of Exeter Hall, as the sinews of war to carry on the irrepressible conflict with slavery in the South- ern States. The leaders of the republican party endeavored to keep the matter a profound secret, but the Anti-Slavery Stendard let the cat out of the bag, just as it blabbed about the English subscriptions to aid in the red revola- tion of John Brown; and so we were made aware of the movement. i But there is one secret which we did not know before, and of which we are only now informed , by the organ of Exeter Hall, the London Neibs, | and that is, that in the event of the election of Lincoln, it is understood by the British abolition- ists that the pretended right to search American vessels, which has hitherto been resolutely de- | nied to Great Britain by all our statesmen, even to war—denied under every aspect by every administration since the government was found- ed—will be conceded by the new republican President, and thus the designs of England will be accomplished, and our national flag made to strike to the Union Jack. In the article we published yesterday from the London Nevs. this prospect is distinctly held out, and it is the main ground on which money is collected in England for the Presidential campaign here. There is thus an alliance between Exeter Hal) and the republican party; and it is evident that a foreign. Power, through the agency of its press a supply of money, is attempt- ing to interfere in our elections, even to the revolutionizing of the government, but for the ostensible purpose of abolishing the servitude which prevails at the South, and was eanctioned by St. Paul eighteen cen- turies ago ; while a brisk slave traffic is being carried on at this moment by the British, not merely in negroes, but in a white race of men, who are subjected to unheard of tortures and borrors, as recently confessed by Lord John Ruasell in an official despatch—a traffic which the British Minister proposes to regulate and extend, seeing that the negroes captured in slavers by British cruisers, and made slaves under the euphonious name of apprenticeship, are not sufficient to supply the demand of the colonies for labor. While we pay smartly for the return of captured slaves to their native land, the British know how to turn them to better account. The idea of British journalists lecturing this country about that system of labor which one portion of its climate as imperatively demands as do the West Indies, which are returning to slavery again under another designation, is lu- dicrous in the extreme, and shows that ia what- ever John Bull may be wanting it is not in plenty of brass. American slaves are treated a hundredfold better in every respect than the negroes under the British apprenticeship sys- tem. An American planter has compassion on his bond servant for two reasons—first, because he was brought up with him from childhood. is well known to him, and is a civilized Chris- tian; and, secondly, because it is his interest to treat him well, as his labor belongs to him for life. But in the savage blacks and the pagan coolies, who are apprenticed for five years, no one has any interest. It is the ovject of the master to get all the labor he can out of them for his money, though he should work them to death; for when their term expires he can cast them off and get a new set of apprentices. Should Lincoln be elected, it is calculated that the British cruisers, obtaining the right of search, will have a glorious time in captariag vessels under the American flag, and that, wn- der the plea of stopping the slave trade. they will completely crush out the legitimate Amer- ican trade on the coast of Africa. Garma.or's Exreprrion Agatnst Naries.—In our Genoa correspondence will be found copies of the communications which have passed be tween Victor Emanuel and Garibaldi ia refe- rence to the expedition of the latter aguinst Naples. The style and tone of the King’s let- ter remind one of the injunction of the Irish student to his companions engaged in giving a tyrannical proctor a ducking. “Dou't nail bis ear to the pnmp, boys’’—a command which was, of course, religiously observed. The royal re commendations, whilst they express in so many words his Majesty's disapproval of the enter- | prise, convey anything but that impression to the mind. It is evident that the King’s heart was not in what be wrote, and that be did got look very anxiously for a compliance with bis request, It is amusing to observe Low Garibal- dis reply, respectful aa it is in terms, reflects back his sense of his Majesty's insincerity. After telling him that such was the present state of Italy that be could not obey the King’s injunctions, “mach as be should like it.’ he adds, “As soon as Isball have done with the task imposed upon me by the wishes of the peo- ple which groans under the tyranny of the Neapolitan Bourbon, 1 shall lay down my sword at your Majesty's feet, and shall obey your Majesty for the remainder of my life- time.” If we were to take the Dictator’s pledges as worth moré than his royal corres- pondent’s assurances, we might be tempted to sigh over the fate of Venice, thus omitted without a word of qualification from the all but realized scheme of Italian independence. It may be assumred from the positive tone of Garibaldi’s reply that he has allowed but very little time to elapse between its deapaich and his departure for the mainland.

Spanish claim, it is dot at all likely that he would be able to satisfy it, and.so thére might be some danger of the menace, of bombardment being put in execu- tion. ‘ What if it were tried? Would our govera- ment stand tamely by and permit a city in which so many Americans are establisbed to be destroyed, because there is some unadjusted difficulty between’ Spain and Mexico? We think not, If there were any rea!ly responsible government in Mexico the case would be different; but in its present disorganized condition it should have the kindly pro- tection of its meighbor and next friend. This seems also to be the opinion of the admin- istration at Washington, for we see that both the Susquehanna and Powhatan are under or- ders to reinforce the Home Squadron at that port. We will have, then, at our disposal, to meet all contingencies in that quarter, the fol- lowing force of vessela:— | eres SRSBERS —Making a total of twelve vessels aud 219 guns, We are inclined to think that such a power- ful peace demonstration as this will cause Seaor Pacheco to pause before ordering extreme mea- sures, The bombardment of Vera Cruz undee such circumstances would be a rather danger- ous experiment for Spain, and we do not think the experiment will Le made just now. Warcu tHe Assemeuy Nowrvations.—We aee that one nomination for member of the Assem- .bly has been made in this State. It is a republi- lican nomination, made in Chautauqua county. In this case the nominee happens to be a new man—one who was not mixed up in the corrup- tions of the last Legislature. Let the people watch all these Assembly nominations, and see that the nominees are not only new men, but good men. Those that have not beea tried may be just as ready to trade of their votes ae were the hardened sinners of the last Legiala- ture. For our State reputation, if for no other cause, we should see to it to have none but re- spectable, upright mea sent to Albany next winter. Look out for the Assembly nomina- tions. Yasery Dw t Foes Lovers in Ta# Same Boar.—It is a trite maxim that extremes meet. The truth of the saying we often see exempiitied, but seldom more lu- dicrously than in the case of the Yancey phi- losophers of the South and the Tribune philose- phers of the North. The formersay that if aay- thing disegreeable to them takes place in the management of this federal family of ours, they have a right to dissoive the ties that keep tae North and South united. Exactlyon the same principle the free lovers of the Tridune school claim that when the parties to the marriage bond get tized of each other, they may dissolve partnership and seek their separate affinities. What difference in principle is there betwoee the two sects of philosophers’ Personal Intelligence. Hoo. Bi Thayer, of Massachusetts, Mr J. Ferguasa, of the United States Navy; 8 A.
