They know for certain that they have in their favor, and aiding t ribly unpopular and odtous repubhcan blunders of the Exe se law and the Registry law; and they hope—bat in this they will be, we think, d —thas they will havo the further advantage of a clause granting universal naero suffrage embodied as part of the instrument ia the new constitution, which the radical majority in our State Convention are now preparing to be subm tted for popular voie, Should thw last blender be coin- mitted, we may safely predict that the State ticket of the republican party, no matter how much mouey may be spent to carry. ih will be defeaied by from seveniy-five to one hund: thousand majority, “But tf, as would now seem likely, warned by the gathering thunder clouds of popular indignation wtich they see rising from the horizon upon every side, our radical State leaders should take the back in regard to their friend Sambo, and cause the proposition for uni- versal suffrage to be submitted on w separate ticket and as & separate question, apart f1 the general pro- visions of the new State constituti ‘then it ia quite posible, ifnot quite likely, that the superior drill and confidence of the radical cohorts may again carry the State by a success which will be little short of miracu- lous. Governor Fenton's election was ouly carried last year by the suddon accession to his standard of at least bo thousand Irish Fenian, votes throughout the State, which were partly cast for him as » protest against the cowardly policy of Seoretary Seward in allowing American citizens of Irish birth to be imprisoned without charge or trial in English dungeons, when revisiting the coun- try of their birth, and partly in gratitude for Governor Fenton's famous answer, when called upon to turn out the New York ~tate militia for the suppression of Col- onel O'Neil and the other ‘Fenian raiders’? fp ce Can- ada, ‘Lot the British authorities in Canada do their own police duty." It was this*Irish vote which bad to make up and counterbalance the conservative republican de- fection of from twenty to twenty-five thousand votes frorerty belonging to the Fenton si hich Mr. Thar- low Weed had the adroitness to lead over to the Hofman fold, At present, however, and in the approaching State contest, there will b® no issue involved of a character to make the Fenian vote again swerve from its natural allegiance to the democratic party, nor will there be any question of indirectly sustaining Secretary Seward by votes cast for the conservative and democratic ticket; and therefore we may iook for an accession to Hoffman's vote tast fall of the thirty thousand Irish votes then cast for Govefbor Fenton. The only question remaining is—Will the twenty-five thousand conservatives, who were then swung off from the republican party by Thurlow Weed, still maiutain their centrifugal gyration and eccentric orbit, or was not that first and only vote of theirs then cast outside of the repubiican party the only experiment they are ever likely to make in a direction which proved so unprofit- able? Had those twenty five thousand excellent and elderly conservatives been successful when voting for Jobn T. Hoffman for Governor, i: is quite probable that they would have become permanent members of thé grand junction conservat:ve democratic Union party; but, as they were very well whipped on that occasion, and have been kept very hungry ever since, as the radical ponishment for their sins, we rather think the great majority of them, if not all, have returned, with downcast eves and pendunt tails, to the fold fysm which they cavorted in such high spirits, and that they will be found, months from now, working with all the energy and zeal of reconverted ex-apostates for aradical triumph. In other words, if the Governorship were again in issue, and if the universal negro suffrage clause should stand incorporated in the vew consi{intion, we bave no manner of question that the conservative demo- cratic candidate would carry the State by not less then seventy-five thousand majority; but as there is no con- test. for any decisive office, and as Governor Fenton holds power for guother year, and, finally, as the sober second thought of the State Convention will iv all human probability reconsider its action on the negro suffrage problem, and accept Mr, William Cassidy's amendmont, on the democratic side, of submitting the black issue as’ a separate proposition, we think the chances are very evenly divided as to which side will carry tho day when the votes come to be counted after sundown on the first Tuesday of November. ‘TMB CITY CONTEST, In the city, however, the direct and controlling issues will be formed upon the Excige law and the Revistry law, as between the radical and democratic parties, and as to the result there can be ‘no doubt. We chink those who expect that a ight vote will be cast iu our county. aud indee’ throughout the Metropolitan Police district, will find themselves deceived. That the aggregate may not be quite so large as jast year is possible; but in view of the extreme severity with which the Police Commis- sloners have carried out the Excise law since last elec- tion, and ince the decision of the proper court that it was constitutional, we teel confident that the ma jority of forty-seven thousand given last November for Jobn T. Hoffman for Governor in the city of New York will be ratber increased than diminished coming contest. Were it not for this obnoxious ton, the radicals, awing to the wise management of Governor Fenton in all auch points as were personal to himself and directly within his power to control, migbt have increased their vote, and might have made a com- bination with the democratic Union, or Miles O'Reilly democracy, wich would have carried the city by twenty thousand majority in November for the thirteen county officers to be elected, and by an increased ma- jority of thirty thousand in the charter election for Mayor and Aldermen, which is to foilow in December. Any such combination, however, bas been put out of the questien by the odious and oppressive features of the Excise law, and more especially by the yet more odioun manner and severity of its enforcemont ‘under the rule of the Police Commissioners, There is not the ghost of a ebance for any candidate, either in November or December, who is Iabelied radical, except possibly in the Sixth and Seventh Senntorial districts, where, if two or mor edemocratic candidates are run for Senator, it is just conceivable that the radical nominees may slip in bes tween. The whole contest, therefore, must be decided within the democratic ranks, where the ity ik 80 great that two full sete of tickets may be run with a fair chance that the candidates on eith still leaving 1 to ten thousand votes ‘enly two live factions jocracy now existing are the democratic Unionites, or Miles O'Reilly peopie, having their headquarters at the Cooper Institute aud commanded by euch vetern warriors as Judge Waterbury, Deputy Register John Y. Savage and ex: Alderman William Walsh, and the party of the regular ring chiefs, or City Hail Lanch Club, who are splen- didiy equipped and accoutred out of the proceeds of 2 depleted public their treasury, and hav officere Mayor Hoffman, with bis Peter B, Sweeny, with his upervisor and Deputy Street Com: iam" Tweed, who intends raising a che before he runs for Seustor in chief the lower district, Dick”) Connolly, who bas no mustach is said Lo be under a system of femai forbids bis raising one and thinks him handsor Comptrotier Ric! out it. The democratic Union people will be sustained and assisted, as in all their former contests, by strepgth reruaing in the McKeonite organization, which * very stroug in a few wards—in the Fourth aud conspicuousiy—but which must be obvionsiy ui its own strength to attempt runving any county ticket, Many of the prominent men in the McKeon factiog hold & divided allegiance, and there can be no doubt that the Cooper Institute people will give them sufficient consideration both on the county and legisia- tive tickets to secnre @ cordial junction, AS to U remo f the old Mozart faction, nine-tenths of the so-called General Committee belongiog to that body are notbing more than tho lowest class of place holders, Manure inspectors aud foremen of night soil gangs under the appoiuiment of the Tammany ring, while the few really able and popular men who have heretofore clung to that organization, with the exception, perhaps, of Mr. George shea, who bas private and professional rea gons for still ieoceigy 9 the Mozart livery, bave cither core openly over to the Cooper Institute ranks or are preparing to do so on the firat opportunity. To every man of strength, formeriy belonging to any outside organization opposed to the corroptions and tyranny of the Tammany ring and the secret star chainber de. cisions of iis Lunch Club, the democratic Union party extends the right hand of fellowship and of good feeling, and they will receive all the consideration to which even their vanity can consider them entitled, and such pro- portiooaie representation will be given to tbém upon all tickets of the anti-ring democracy as thr ance- cedents aud popularity spall seem to render just.

MISCELLANEOUS POLITICAL NEWS. Veruont State Etecrion.—The first of the fall State elections takes place to-morrow. Vermont chooses a Governor, Lieutenant Governor, State Treasurer and members of the Legislature. The State is so overwhelm- ingly republican, that very little interest is manifested in the result, The nominations of the leading candidates of the two parties are as follows: — ‘ For Governor—Jobn B, Page, rep., John L. Edwards, jem. For Lieutenant Governor—stephen Thomas, Waldo Brigham, dem. 3 i - For Treasurer—John A. Page, rep., James H, Williams, jem. A Rewoxstrance AGAINST Vice Presipent Wave.—The Cincinnati Commercial remonstrates with Vice President Wade for making himself a biackguard in his upqual- fied and coarse denunciation of two hundred thousand democratic citizens of Obio ag rebels, It says:—In 1861, when there was actual treason in levying war against the United States and in aiding and comforting the armed enemies of the nation, a multitude of those calling themselves democrats, and who had differed with tue party in power as radically as they do now, shoul- dered their muskets for the Union. The actual traitors were not numerically formidable here when the test came, and we have faith that they would not, if another critzeal time should come, be found to have increased in numbers. The issues of the campaign are rugged enough, calmly stated, and the vehement deciamation that exaggerates and intensifies them fails to convert those who are against us or to convince the wavering, and grieves the judicious.

Going bacic a little further, we may point to the fact that ex-Sheriff James Lynch was an anti Tammany vietory, and there has never been, for the last eight years, any democratic contest, in which Tammany Hall ran a straight ticket against the outside democratic nominations, 19 which the nominees of the Wigwam have not been either igno- miniously defeated, or in which the republican candidate has not slipped into success between the warring fac- tions, as witness the success of the republican ex-Regis- ter, John Keiser, wnen running between James Lynch, of ‘the anti.tammany democracy, and M. 7. Brennan, the regular Wigwam candidate, It was under similar circumstances that ex Comptrotier Robert T. Haws, now deceased, achieved his triumph for that office. RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE EXCISE LAW. Revolutions never go backward, and, unless all pre- vious experience in political life proves deceitful, the combination of anti-ring elements will be overwhelm- ingly successful this fall agaynst the candidates of that machine which has been proclaimed ‘‘the only regular organization of the democratic party im the city and county of New York’? by such high roral author! Mr. Peter Caeger, of 57 State street, Albany: © ford E Church, of Orleans county; William H. Ludlow, of Snffolk, and others of that effete and played-out coterie. Tho responsibility for the passage of the Excise law undoubtedly reats upon the republican party, aud will finally be found a millstone round its neck, too heavy to be carried; but the direct responsibility for the odious, fyranalcat and ingnisi- torial execution of that law in this city and within the Metropolitan district must be properly placed where it belongs, on the shoulders of the Tammany chiefs, 5% ishly and short-sightedly anxious to increase the demo- cratic vote for the nominees and tools of their own Lunch Club ring, they have used their influence with their chief ally, Mr. Thurlow Weed (whose influence in the Police Commission is irresistible and only too well known to require comment), forghe purpose of making this odious law yet more odious and oppressive co all classes of our citizens, by a: system of enforcement equally based upon the perjured spy and the open biud- geon of blue-costed authority. It is well known that Governor Fenton and other leaders of the rad interest have openty, and again and in, vainly at- tempted to moderate the superser bie zeal of President Acton and his coadjutors in their headquartors: at Mulberry street.

President Acton and the ready acquiescence in his views of the only direct Tammany Hall representative on the Police Board, Judge Bosworth, of this city. Certain it is that no opposition to ‘most rigorous enforcement of the Excise law bas ever been 90 much as whispered fo any Tammany quarter; and during the last session of the Legislature, whaterer was done towards its repeal of a practical and mod- erate nature, holding out apy possibility of success, came from such members of Assembly as Mr. Owen Murphy, of the Seventeenth ward, member of the Com- mitteo on Cities and Villages; Mr. Charles Blaavelt, of the Eighth ward, and from their other democratic as- sociater, who had been elected directly on the demo- cratic Union or Miles O'Reilly ticket, and in opposition to the nominess and policy of the Tammany ring.

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE HERALD, The Brazilians Abandon C Move up the Parana—How the P Change Took Place=The Paraguayans Al- ready Fortified Against the New Move, Rio Janeiro, Angust 1, 1867. To employ the language of one of your contempo- raries, while rejecting the simile and detesting the grammar, “the eye of the public has been on tiptoe of expectation” in reference to a great victory that was anticipated by the Brazilian arms over tho Paraguayans, I say Brazilian, because the alliance po ionzer practically exists, The French packet, which brought news from the seat of war to the 7th ultimo, reports nothing to mitigate the feverish feeling which has taken possession of all minds for the last few weeks. On the contrary, she has increased the anxiety with which we await steamers from the river Plate, At Montevideo informa- tion was expected of a general batile, which was to (ake Place under the lead of the General-in-Chief, Marques de Caxias, On the 2d of Jaly the Baron Porto Alegre had an in- terview With the Admiral on board the fiagsbip. It has Jeaked ont since that the Marqnes declared that he wa, going to abandon jncampment and proceed to the spot where he was to meet the Baron do Herral, hia troops carrying rations for three days. It appoars also that Baron Porto Alegre was of opinion that they should await the arrival of General-Mitre, with bis six thousand _ nr troopa, as he thought it rashness to penetrate ther into the enemy’s territory withonly twenty-seven thousand men--the present available force of the allies (?). A heavy rain commenced on the 3d, in consequence of which the intended movement of the Marquis was not carried out. On the same day six steamers arrived at Curuzi, from Paso de Patria, to take away the re- mainder of tho forces, including the artillery, as it was determined to abandon the position. Fess seems that the, ans, discovering Operations 0! the Bresiisas pend atiserecioes aie on the latter, kilheg and ne ke erm ier? them. Carrying out on Marques de Caxias abandoned and reduced to ashes his encamp- to the sorrow of the brave fellows who at a great sacrifice once conquered this fine iticn. On the Sth the fleet continued to move, The fighting ships in the Tear ascended the river a short distance, and the pon- ss trant and i | battery, with other ves- ‘sels, fell back from Curuzi. In order to facttitate ope- ations the fleet was now formed into three divisions, The firstis under the immediate command of the Adm- ral-in-Chief, and is intended te: above Ourripaity ; the second is to operate from Curuzi downwards, an: the thira, subdivided into two flotillas, has for ite ‘tal mission to watch the Parana river, and support all the troops of the Baron di Herral. It is expected that as soon as the rains cease a com- bined march of all tne land and naval forces will begin simultaneously, But—and there’s the rab—the stars of heaven fought against Sisera, and it now seems that e same heavens are fighting acainst the Brazilians, in their continuous rains, These are not the days of por- tents and omens; if they were, we might be disposed to say that Brazil ought to abandon her attempt to conquer Paraguay, seeing that the desire of conquest Is opposed to the will of God. But let us leave philosopbiztug and 80 to dry facts, It seems that the Brazilians are not remiss in their endeavors to meet the enemy. ‘Telegraphic wires are laid all over the fine of march wherever the line ad- vances, means communication is kept up with Paso de Patria and Baron do Herral. | wing, and their the unfortunate man conveyed to this city and finally It ts belier and with good reason, that the invading } forces will eacounrer @ stubborn ‘resistance at San | $0 Bellevue Hospital, where he now lies in a very criti Solano, anoth yw place before unknown.
