Progress of Revolutionary Hdeas in England. In commenting oa the recent riots in Lon- don and Birmingham we expressed our convic- tion that they had their origin in causes more serious than those assigned to them. The explanations of the English ministerial orgavs failed to alter that conclusion. The “no Popery” cry suggested, it is true, a very plausible motive for tho excitement which led to the Birmingham outbreak; but it did not account for the revolutionary indications which characterized the London riot, and did not even eland ibe test of an impartial inquiry in conneotion with the former event. Since we commented on both these occur- ences fresh light has been thrown on the influsnees that led to them, and that from a quarter where it was least to be expected. The unscrapulousness with which the House of Lords has exercised its power of obstruct- ing is known In postponing sures of Parliamentary reform proposed from tims to time, in endeavoring to maintain the barriers of religious exclusion, and in de- fending the corn laws until resistance threat- ened to bring about a revolution, it made itself obnoxious to the great body of the people. The expression of their wishes in respectful petitions had no more effect upon it than the arguments and warnings of the press. To carry the measures which cach successive ad- ministration was constrained to yield, the Cabi- net had to swamp the tory element in the House by fresh creations of peers. This expe- dient has been pushed to its last limits and can no longer be resorted to. The people will not stand any further additionsto a body which they jusly regard as an incubus upen the re- sources and legislation of the country. Having succeeded of the House of Commons to 4 which entirely subordinates the aristocratic to the popular element, it could not consist- ently tolerate the interference of a body whose mission has always been to emasculate or reject such useful measures as occasionally emanated from the other branch of the Logie- lature. How this interference was to be done away witb, or from whence the blow which was to strike out its existence was to proceed, did not seem clear even to the popular leaders thomselves. The discussion of the question was even avoided as indicating too clearly and prematurely the purpose they had in view. the progress of useful legisiation to most of our readers. and curtailing the moea- in altering the organization point It is significant of the progress which revo- lutionary ideas have made in England within the last year or two that the first serious attempt of the abolition of hereditary privileges should be made by the London Times. That journal, though to a ceriain extent the organ of the aristocracy, has always (aken care to so shape its course as not to run counter to the national will. When, therefore, it admits in one article that Ireland has been most un- fairly treated by British legislators, and in another that the House of Lords is “the most use- less and indolent assembly in the world,” we may assume that it has gathered from public sentiment that the time has come for a radical change not only in the policy pursued toward the sister country, but in the constitution of the upper house itself. The editorial in which this latter declaration is made does not go to the extent of demanding its abolition; but its arguments are plainly meant to show the supe- riority of an elective over a hereditary cham- ber of peers. writer of that which he calls for tied out except on a plan analogous to that on which the United States Senate is elected. The English people would not tol- erate the substitution of the present House by & Senate chosen on the French system. A British Sonate, under the influence of the new ideas, would have to bear a strict relation to the principles on which the House of Commons is in fature to be elected. In denouncing, therefore, in such unmeasured terms the present organization of the House of Lords, the Times to grapple with this question No one knows better than the article that the reform could mever be car- market, despite the increased receipts, ruled more | simply means that the hereditary system on picasa Amat, Friese Wore about AG Ricver as the | which it is based gust pe altered, and @ hme NEW YURK HERALD, TUESDAY, JUNE 25, 1867. plan substituted for it which wil! admit of q large infusion of the popular elomom. This once conceded, thore is no end to tho changes which will follow in itswake. Unless the new system can be assimilated to that of France it is plain ‘hat the monarchy itself must soon succumb to the spirit of innovation and en- croachmoat. These views are no longer confined to mere speculation. The events which are daily trans piring give to them form and reality. The new reform bill has struck a fatal blow at the he- reditary principle. An oligarchy is no longer possible under the operation of tts provisions, We know it to be a fact that most of the sagacious minds among the dominant class have long foreseen and been preparing for the change. Even royalty has not deemed itself so secure as to nog- lect the precautions which the prospect suggests. Prince Albert, who was more of 4 statesman than the world gave him credit for, and who was a keen observer of political indi- cations, was not only himself alive to, but im- pressed upon his children, the eoessity of ‘\@ rainy day:” Slence the almost aiggacdig have marked the habits of the reigning family. We certainly did not expect that events would have crowded upon caoh other with such rapidity as to give to what appearod at one time only remote possibilities the oharacter of actualities, The surrender by tho Derby government to the opposition of everything which they had undertaken to defend, and the abandonment of the hereditary system by the London Times, leave no doubt that Great Britain is working through a revolution, which, though silent and bloodless, prom'ses to be no les radical and comprehensive ia its changes than those which France passed through at the close of the last century. War Appearauces in Eurepe. Two days ago we had a cable despatch from London intimating that ramor prevailed toth in Paris and Berlin to the effect that the rela- tions between the Emperor Napoleon and King William of Prussia were not cordial. Yester- day we printed a special telegram from Berlin announcing that Napoleon was etill making pur- chases of horsef on an exiensive scule tor the use of the French army. What doos it all mean? Notwithstanding the results of the London Conference does the Franco-Prussian difficulty still remain unsettled? When the proceetings ot that Conference were made public the Herat, glancing at the history of Europe from the days of the Romans downwards, and taking into consideration the combustiole elements of Buropvan society at the preseat time, asked whether the treaty meant peace or ouly an armistice. We were not sanguine then that war might not break out on the ancioat baitle field of Europe next spring or early next summer. The most recent intelligence does not encourage us to change our opinion. There iomuch reason to deubt tat France and Prussia will not become fast friends until they have in open field and in a fuir fight tested their strength. The Exposition will be got over, and then it will become more m.nifest whether it is to be peace or war. Cotembia and Panama. Our dates from Panama are to June 14. The R. R. Cuyler affair is not yot settled. This steamer appears to be very csseniial to the plans of Mosquera, but it is probable that b< will not, in bis future dictstorial <uvements, be able to count upon %er. The trouble between the legally ecastituted Congress of the nation and Mosquera is taking a very serious form, and can only result in another bloody civil strife, which will overthrow the dictator; for the two great parties which have heretofore waged war against each other have no great principles at stake in the Mosquera affair, which is purely a commercial specula- tion, stirred into action for the possession of Panama. Mosquera, therefore, can only gain such adherents as may be purchased, and can only hold on to them while his funds last. In the meantime it is of vital importance that Panama should cut aloof from New Gra- nada and raise a flag of her own. The singie strip of land which comprises her territory bas more of future wealth and greatness in it than the whole of the remaining portion of the jungle and mountain region called New Gra- nada, which hangs to the Isthmus of Panama like a gigantic curse upon its progress. Panama has a future of its own before it, and so long as it is linked with a State that is doomed to at least a quarter of a century more of strife it will remain struggling upwards, only to be thrust back again as its wealth shows itself as a prize for the rapacious hand that may control the government. Moreover, it is a curse to New Granada itself to have a single strip of its territory so enriched by the commerce of the world that its revenues be- come the one glittering bauble at which every political party grasps as the key of its political ambition—the one great jewel that gives power because it gives wealth. In the struggle for the possession of the prize all the true inter- ests of the country are forgotten, its progress retarded, and the country given up to civil turmoil. There is a large party upon the Isthmus that would gladly raise the flag of independence, and we shall no! be surprised to hear at any moment that this has been done. They not only owe it to themselves, in view of the great interests at stake, but to New Granada and to the commerce of the world, which, with con- stant increase, is flowing across the transit between the two great oceans. Our Special Telegram: the Telograme of the Associated Proes. Our special telegrams have more than once been called in question. They have never yet been proved incorrect. Subsequent events have unitormly proved their accuracy. How different with those of the Associated Press! On Saturday we printed a press despatch which announced the refusal of the Sublime Porte to comply with the request of the great Powers that hostilities be saspended in Crete, and that the whole Cretan question be submitted to a joint committee of said Powers, including the Porte. In yesterday's Heratp we gave another press despatch, confirmed by one of our own specials, to the effect that the Sublime Porte bad accepted the collective proposal, and that the commission was to sit in Constantinople. It is difficalt to acquit the agent of the Associated Press from the charge of sending us as news what is only empty and unfounded rumor. We ought to be better served. @ur Now Rotations with Mexico—Diplomacy and “Old Cle’.” Mr. Seward, in his epecoh at Boston, entered into @ conditional engagement to give the people of the United States “possession of the American continent.” Not by war, of course— wo have had enough of that; nor does Mr. Soward’s genius lie in that line. He means to acquire the continent by diplomacy or pur- chase, and he had hie eye on Otterbourg— Marous Otterbourg, our bran new minister to the Mexican republic. Evidently this is the significance of the new appointment. With these viows it is not necessary that our minister to Mexico ehould bea statesman ora man of political sagacity or ability. There is no policy to carry out—only a purchase to make; and therefore all we want isa commercial agent. Otterbourg is the man—a shrewd trader, clearly, since he has driven his bargains eo well with Mr. Seward that he is now employed to drive Mr. Seward’s bargains with others. Otterbourg is © member of that fiaanciering race whose dargains have been memorable since the day of the thirty pieces of aitver. His ancestors of “old clothes.” Indeed, some. friend to this ministerial Marous writes us that he would be more fit to buy old clothes than to make treaties. This involuntary testimony to the commercial ability of the new minister would settle the case in any unprejudiced mind, and prove the fitness of the appointment in view of Mr. Seward's present attitude; for the Premier evidently regards Mexico as a grand jumble of very offensive “old clo’ ” and Marcus as just the man to buy up the lot “sheap as tirt.” True, all mon may not see the case in this light. There are old fogies among us—con- servative fellows, with notions of dignity and euch nonsense, who cannot understand 4 fair trade, and will perhaps insist upon it that the United States and Mexico are independent nations, whose diplomatic relations should be in the binds of men of understanding and eagacity. It might, indeed, be argued from this standpoint that no foreign mission is at this moment more important than the mission to Mexico, since upon it must immediately depend our relations with tho neighboring republic, for whose conduct we are iu @ degtee respon- sible before the world. We have no outstand- ing question with foreign countries, save only the Alabama claims, that may involve eo much as our relations with the Mexican republic; and to adjust these relations nicely—to require of Mexico such & course and auch conduct as would not dishonor republican government, and would justify in its result the grand position we have taken against European intervention in American affairs—a position that relieved Mexico of the presence of « iYrench army—to arrange all this on a satisfactory basis might have pat to the test the best abilities of the deepest thinkers in the country. Not only did the mission seem*to cali for the appolatment of one of our ablest mon—for » maa of vigor- ous intellect and energetic chi racter—but the country expected that only ewsh a man would be named for the place. Mr. Campbeli’s appointment did not satisfy the country, even though he seemed to be fastened round the neck of General Shermar,; and when that re- markable party was atevted the Mexican mis- sion was far less important than it is now—and now ws have Otterbourg. The State Department groans for a man fit te vepresent the country at a very important point, and Otterbourg is brought forth. He is either the sum of the diplomatic ability of the astion, or our relations with the neighboring republic have taken the shape of a straight financial transaction, and Mexico is to be bought up. On which foot do we stand? Is Marcus a great genius, or are our Mexican relations on the old clothes basis? There are many reasons why Mexico might be justly treated as “old clo’,” and bought and sold, and, may be, even washed ; are there any why Marcus should be regarded as « great man? Only one fact is known of his career as Consul in Mexico. He was up to the ears in the game of securing the recognitien of the empire by the United States. He has a friend who has denied this; but the statement is true, and it may be that Marcus does not let all his friends into his little games. Does the new Minister owe his appointment to his success in the games played between Mr. Seward and the empire? Is itareward? If not, what is it? Who can solve this diplomatic mystery? In the meantime, while the country waits for the solution, wouldn’t be well if Mr. Seward should cut short his oratorical pilgrimage, hurry to Washington, and rack his brain to see if he cannot some way improve upon this appointment ? Yankees in Japan. Our special Japan correspondence, pub- lished in the Henao yesterday, shows that the inevitable Yankees are opening the eyes of the Japanese by all sorts of enterprises, of course, as our correspondent says, “for enriching them- selves and benefiting the Japavese government and the rest of mankind.” One of the latest enterprises by @ person representing American capitalists, is to light up both Jeddo and Yoko- hama with gas. There are besides projects for railways, telegraphs, and all sorts of improve- ments; and the Japanese seem to take to these new movements with great relish. It will not be long before we have telegraphic com- munication with both Japan and China across the Pacific. Our merchants in New York and San Francisco will soon know the state of the markets there each day, and regulate their business accordingly. There is an immense field for American enterprise in that populous and rich part of the world, and our citizens are taking advantage of it. Everything is rapidly tending to make this country and this metro- polis the centre of commerce for the world. Chile and Peru. Daring our rebellion the negroes on the James river said, “Things are getting much mixed.” It is the same with Chile and Peru The former wants war; the latter peace. Be- tween civil strife and the Spanish bombard- ment of their ports it is evident that they are somewhat exhausted; and yet they fight on with a kind of dogged tenacity which worries out, if it does not conquer, fate. Our Lime dates to May 28 indicate that the revolution letely inaugurated by the octogenarian Cas tille is still gaining ground in the south of Pera. At the capital the war between Prado and the Congress is of a moré bitter form than ever, and Prado has threatened that he will assame dictatorial ay - if Congress does not confer them upon him. “This contest betwaen Congress aad Prado continuing, it is evident that Castilla will have sey work before him, and our next news may bv’ that the old soldior is in control of the governavent, There appears to be a glorious uncertainty about the future phases of the Spanish war with the two republics of Chile and Peru. The seaports destroyed, Spain ean do no more damage, and Admiral Nufiez can only hope to win more honors of the Valparaiso type by increasing the range of his guns to that of his braggadocio. Spain, Chile and Peru are, by the continuance of their war, lowering them- selves to the level of children, in which.they show to the world that they have no dignity either in the origin of their strife or the method of prosecuting it, while the interior dissensions of Peru and Chile indicate a speedy mame bower F.

Apropos of this, a Nashville paper gays :—“‘Strange to rotate, General Grant, who knew that Booth wag a rank rebel, and bad refused to take the oath, gave him a pass to go to New Orieans in the early part of 1664, writing and signing the dgcument him; ” ~ ? ons + ‘Pho Political Canvass in Virginia.
