It appears that this is the all absorbing question at the national capital just now. There are several new developments in regard to the affairs of that country which place the whole question in altogether o now light, There are a num- ber of schemes on foot, but the most important, not only in its bearings upon Mexico, but in its beneficial resulta to this country, is the proposi- tion which is aald to have como from General Ortega, the Chief Justice of Mexico and the legul President of that republic. It iso broad, comprehensive and liberal in ite character as to at once commend itself to the practical pease of our people, The outline, as it has been given to the Committee on Foreign Re- lations and the President, is stated in the let- ter referred to, and from all accounts meets with general favor. If our government pro- poses to render the Mexican republio any asaistance, there cannet possibly be any better basis to farnish this assistance than to forma troaty with Ortega upon the principle there stated. ‘That official, we understand, f¢ now fn this city, end General Banks, as well as the Presi- dent, should at once invite him to Washington and satisfy themselves of his power to carry out the details of the agreement, This done, the Committee on Foreign Relatibns should make an elaborate report, that the public may be placed in possession of all the facts, In this way the Mexican muddle can be clearod up and Gevoral Banks earn for himself the gratitude of the American people and sirug- gling repnblios evarvwhara. NKW YORK HERALD, TUESDAY, JUNE 7, 1866. " The Preposed Seheme of Nevolution— The Iseuc Before the Peuple. We live in an age of revolutions, Through ® frightful civil war, with its rivers of blood, we have within the last five years accom- plished, in the abolition of slavery, one of the most wemarkable political transformations in the history of any couniry since the building of the pyramids. But, great as this change is, we are upon the verge of another still greater—a revolution in the government which may in- | volve a war ef races more sanguinary and re- morseleas than the late war of sections, The constitutional amendment which has been adopted by both houses of Congress and sub- mitted to the States for their ratiflostions, how- ever fair and innocent upon the surfuce it may sppear, is only part of the scheme for a chang» in our federal system as radical and compre- hensive as that of France from her frst experi- mental republic of “Liberty, Equality and Fra- ternity” to the one man power of the imperial establishment of Napoleon the First, revived again, after some other transformations, and now in fall force under Napoleon the Third, In the power assumed by Congress and for the continuance of which the two houses ap- peal to the States and the people now repre- sented at Washington—the power to exclude indefinitely from the general government the States involved in the recent rebellion—we have the assumption ofa revolutionary power of the broadest dimensions. We ara not look- ing at this matter in the light of a partisan. As mere parties we oare nothing for the political parties of the day. This constitutional amend- ment which has passed Congress, though good enough in itself, is still part of a scheme, we say, for s radical ohange in the whole structure of our government; and upon thia issue the people of the Northern States will be called upon for their judgment in the approaching full elections, The propositions that men ‘of all colors shall be equal before the law, that rep- resentation and suffrage shall go together, that the nations] debt shall be held sacred, that the debis of the rebellion shall be utterly and everywhere repudinted—offerings to Bun- combe—are calculated to have a pleasing effect upon the popular ear; but the real question ia, shall Congress exercise for an indefinite length of time—two, five, ten or twenty years—the power to govern as military colonies the States rescued from the late rebellion? If the people are satisfied that this is the shortest and beat way to u reatoration of the Union, all they have to do is to elect another radical Congress ; but ifthey are not satisfied that this schemo is better than that of Pres!dent Johnson ; if they believe it, on the contrary, to be full of mischief and danger to the country, then they have only to set their faces and their votes against all those candidates for the next Congress who awear by the present, in ordor to defeat this radical pro- gramme of a sweeping revolutionary recon- struction. , Give us a House of Representatives that will admit loyal men, elected in good faith, as members from the now excluded States, and a speedy setilement, In a very qniet and satis- factory way, of all the existing doubts and dif- ficulties of Southern restoration will certainly follow. The conditions already exacted by President Johnson from tho States concerned cover nearly the whole ground of this conajJ- tutional amendment just adopted by Congreas. The only material question not touched by the President, in bis conditions of restoration, is the question of making negro suffrage the basis of negro representation. But as this propo- sition was suggested months ago to Congress by the Prealdent, there need be no trouble upon tho subject, The issue between the ad- ministration and Congress is not in this con- stimtional amendment It is simply this— shall the late insurgent States be restored upon the plan of President Jobnson to their places in Congress without further restrictions, con- ditions or constitutional amendmonts, or shall j.they be excluded for two, five, ten or twenty years lounger? We are opposed to this plan of a prolonged and indefinite exclusion of the outside Southern States. It isa plan which we fear is only cal- culaied to aggravate the poverty and finan- cial cmbarrassments of those States and their political d-moralization und wocial disorders retulting from the war; a plan which may exasperate their whites and blacks to a war of extermination egainst each other and to @ repetition, in South Carolina and Georgia, of the bloody scenes between the two races in St. Domingo and Jamaica; a plan which, for its delays and despotic precautions, may result eventuaily not only in the repudiation of the national debt amidst the wrangling politi- cal factions of the day, but in the sinking of the government itself in a puritanical recon- siruction worse than that of Cromwell. This is the real issue now before the people, end let them remember that the only way to settle it properly is in a reconstruction of Congress. Tas Mustany Srreatioy m I[rary.—The Italian army at Inst accounts had ad- vanced from the Oglio river and placed {iself immediately in front of the two fortresses of Mantua and Peschiera, which ropresent the western line of the defences known as the quadrilateral. The occupation of this position, facing the weakest aide of these defences, would indicate the intention of the Italians to attack them, but it is not improbable that other and wiser tactics will prevail. Since the last Italian-Austrian conflict the practice of war has materially changed, and campnigns are prosecuted and even battles waged on very different principles from what they wore then. The possession of Mantua and Peschiera would, undoubtedly, be great ad- vantages gained by an army invading Venetia ; but with such successes to begin with the Italians would find themselves confronted by a still stronger defensive line, fortified at Verona and Legnano, and forming the eastern line of the quadrilateral. With increased railroad fw ¢ilities and other means of locomotion, increased armies and an unusually powerful fleet, it is much more probable that Italy and Victor Emanuel will imitate this country and General Grant and pursue against the quadri- lateral the tactics which Gnally prevailed Richmond, The campaign of the Italians will doubtiess be a flank movement fn immense force by the army, supported by the large Italian fleet in the passage of the Po and Etech, directly against Venice, disregarding and pro- bably rendering nugatory the immense and powerfal defences of the quadrilateral. The orossing of the Po and Etch, near the Adriatic, with the ald and support of the feet, will be far loss dificult than the passage of the Mizcio in the face of the defences at Mantus and J’es- chiers. The same material improvements which affected the conduct of the war in this country will have » similar effect in the ap- proaching conflict in Italy, The strategy of Grant aad Sherman and the tactics of Thomas and Sheridan are evidently coming again into play ; and we sball doubtless soon see Buro- pean armies organized, European campaigns planned and European battles fought on the same extensive scale as those which illustrated our war. The War in Europe—A Historieal Par- aellol. ‘The latest news from Europe, which we pub- Msh this morning, is very warlike. The scheme of peace conference having been abandoned Prussia has marched her troops into Holstein, Austria has concentrated her forces, and Italy is all ready for the straggle. It is probable that the next steamer will bring the snnounce- ment of a battle and soon all Europe will ring with the clash of resounding arms. When hos- tilities are actually commenced it will be ex- ceedingly difficult to tell when and where they will terminate, England, France and Russis, now neutral, may at any time be brought into the fray, and the European democracy, who have long awaited -their opportunity to strike, may at some unexpected moment take sides in the conflict and overturn the tottering thrones of imperial despots. The curious repetitions or parallelisms of history have become proverbial. Napoleon, who has stirred up this war for certain motives of his own, is playing the same game with Ger- many now that Richelieu played with Charles the Fitth, The Reformation inaugurated by Luther was political as well as religious. Richelieu secretly took part in the troubles which arose and aided the Projestants in Germany while he was putting them down in favor of the Catholics in France. Charles the Fifth, then Emperor of Germany and King of Spain, a sovereign who boasted that the sun never set upon his dominions, was constantly harassed by attacks from all sides, now from a powerful rival and now froma confederation of German princes, until at tho close of the thirty years’ wars he was glad to abdicate and retire intoa monastery. In many respects his position resombled that of the pre- sent Emperor of Anstria, against whom similar coalitions are forming, and whose object, like" that of Charles, is to establish and strengthen the power of the Pope by repressing the em- bitious advances of Maly. Prussia and Italy now occupy the position held by the oppo- nents of Charles. Napoieon, like Richelien, stands behind the scones fomenting the various intrigues, England, thon neutral because of her own troubles with the Commonwealth, is now In nearly the samo attitude, Finally, the democratic element, then unknown in politics, has taken the place of the religious element once so potential. After the battle of Lutzen Richelieu secured for France the prize for which he had been scheming—the left bank of the Rhine—and it is more than suspected that Napoleon is now anxious to acquire the same terri- tory. The singular fact that Richelieu as- sisted the Protestants is paralleled by the assistance which Napdieon notoriously gives the | democrata wherever he thinks he can control them and whenever he judges it to be to his advaniage. A wise man uses his encinies to further his own pans; but after all it isa dan- gerous gamé and one in which the engincor is often hoist with his own petard. Richelioa succeeded in his inmediate plots; but be gave Protestantism an impetus which nothing has since been able to check. Napoleon may find democracy # tool equally dangerous to handle. Shoutd there be a revolutionary uprising in Europe, bis crown widl bo one of the firet to tremblo if not to fut. To cémplete the his- torical paraliel it is only necessary to consider the uspect of affoira in Nngland, where tho Reform bill now beiag debuted will probably be defeated or puatponod, and tha poop!4, tired of waiting for the recognition of their | rights by a government which has many faults and few recommendations other than that of custom and tradition, may take affairs into their own hands and establish another com- monwealth or republic. Woe cannot anticipate another thirty years’ war, since wars are shorter in these days; but it is possibie that an entire reconstruction of the map.of Europe and the overthrow of several ancient dynasties may precede that peace of fatigue and exhaustion which wili close this contest us it did the wars of Charles the Fifth, Upon this or any other result Americans may look with complacency, for our troubles are over and we ebsll ccr- tainly be benofited by those in Burope. = ’ Tar Yacut Review.—To-day there will be a review and inspection of the numerous vessels of ihe New York Yacht Squadron at the Horse- shoe, near Sandy Hook, and if the day is favor- abie the sight will be a most interesting ane; for not only will the yachts be reviewed by those having the authority to do so, but the ladies of New York are to pass their opinion as to the appearance and condition of the ves- sels. Knowing the latter to be the case evory owner will strive to have his pet in tip-top order and everything about her “ship shape and Bristol fashion,” so that we may expect more than usual nicety on board and more than usual care in the woy the vessels are handled. We therefore advise those who on Thursday last thought the Interest in yachting was abating to see the review to-day, and we guarantee that their opinion will be changed in a remarkable degree. Tun Svurrression ov Numanxcea—President Schultz, of the Board of Health, bas begun a crusade for the suppression of all butchers who cut the throate of lambs in the presence of children; all fishmongers who sell fish not already cleaned when caught; all perambu- lating cattle found in the strevts; all maid- servants cought throwing garbago in the gutters, and all geese detected in cackling thereon. Will not this be construed into cruelty to animals by President Bergh, of the society for the suppression of evil doors who maltreat dumb beasts? If President Schultz does not display more discriminate zeal, we shall have President Bergh instituting steps to suppress him. Anniversary of jmattto of Banker Bostor, June 18, 1866.
