Policeman John Callory was sued for the recovery of damages by Mrs. Sarah Greer before Judge Curtis in the Marine Court yesterday, for having struck her with his club while taking her to the station house in June last.

The Demoralized Democracy—General Grant, the Herald and the Politicians, The confusion of Babel—the confusion of tongues—has fallen upon the demoralized democracy, They, too, have had their decisive defeats around Petersburg and are on the ran for Appomattox Court House, Had they fol- lowed the advice of the HERALD, as Seymour, under the counsels of John Van Buren followed it in 1862, the whole face of things would have been changed. After his splendid campaign of Vicksbusg we foresaw that the promotion of General Grant would not stop short of the White House, After that unparalleled cam- paign which began in the Wilderness and ended in Lee's surrender it was manifest that Grant, as the republican or the democratic candidate, would hé our next President, For well on to two years, however, after Lee’s surrender the opinion prevailed that General Grant was a war democrat, and that accordingly the chances of securing bis great name for 1868 were decidedly in favor of the democracy, if they would only abandon that fatal idea that the war was o failure. The HeEratp meantime had presented General Grant and urged his commanding popularity upon the republicans; but the radical leaders, managers and organs laughed at our presumption. The republican party, re- lying upon its own strength, they said, would have no doubtful standard bearer for the succession, who might turn out to be anotber John Tyler or Andy Johnson, but they would have a man whose principles were thoroughly republican, and so proclaimed to the four winds of heaven, Thus, in the State elections of 1867, the claims and the availability of General Grant for the succes- sion were studiously ignored by the radical managers, and Chase, as the great and reliable radical statesman, was brought into the fore- ground, Then we began to show and it began to be widely believed that Chase would in all probability be the republican candidate, and that to defeat him the war democracy would be able to compel the Democratic Convention to adopt General Grant. So it was that even the World at last began to discover in General Grant the qualities of a marvellous proper man for the democracy on a new departure, They only had to admit the settlement of cer- tain questions and nominate General Grant to march on to a great victory and a glorious future, The same organ hag since unblush- ingly denounced this same General as nothing better than a drunken fdiot, a butcher and an impostor, But the elections of 1867 changed the pro- gramme on both sides, The swamping of Chase and Old Ben Wade in Ohio, and of the Fenton-Greeley radical managers in New York, and their Chase programme, was speedily fol- lowed \y popular gatherings of the rank and file of the Grant republicans, and the radical Managers began at once to lose ground from the pressurg of these spontaneous popular uprisings. These mévorienty soon, indeed, made stich headway against the denunetations of Wendell Phillips levelled at Grant as a drunkard, an ignoramus, a bad bargain, a man of demooratic proclivities, with a weakness for Johnson; against the remon- sirances of Greeley in behalf of the principles and dignity of the republl- can party; against the opinions of Old Ben Wade that General Grant would only talk horse and could talk nothing but horse ; against the complaint of Sumner that Grant was a whitewasher of the traitor Johnson—such head- way ogainst all this that a special radical organ was set up in Philadelphia to pooh-pooh Grant and glorify Chase. But the quarrel and the famous correspondence between Grant and Johnson of February, 1868, on the Stanton im- broglio, brought General Grant out into such bold relief on the reconstruction measures of Congress that, with the publication of those letters, the radicals were vanquished, the democracy were disgusted, Chase was totally eclipsed, and Grant became the republican can- didate as by general consent and by acclama- tion, Thon another wonder came to light. Here was Grant, who had been the hope of the con- servatives, changed into the idol of the radi- cals; and next we had Chase, the fallen idol of the radicals, changed into the hope of the conservatives. From his admirable course on the impeachment trial the Chief Justice became an imp of darkness to the radicals and an angel of light to the democracy. Then it began to be seen that Chase, as the fearless defender of the constitution, was the candidate upon whom all the conservative elements of the country, with the democracy in the van, could achieve a solid and lasting triumph over the radicals, evenunder the banner of Grant, The HzRALp presented this idea in every shape and form in a series of articles from day to day, down to the Tammany Convention, in behalf of Chase as the sure and only sal- vation of the democracy, We thought, too, down to the fiasco of Seymour's nomina- tion and acceptance, that Chase would be the man; for were we not assured that Seymour had it all fixed, with the nomination cut and dried, and a glorigus speech for Chase, nicely written out, neatly folded up, in his pocket and ready for delivery ? We know what was done, and we have had 0g inkling of the consequences. The demo- cratic politicians and jugglers, including Seymour, scorning, in their silly self-conceits, our advice and our warnings, have come to grief, They begin to understand that a calm looker-on of some experience at a battle, from a point above and beyond the smoke and con- fusion of the field, can tell better the shaping and weak points of the fight on both sides than any of those actively engaged. Now, after their late reverses under Seymour, some of these democratic politicians, with their party newspaper Bohemians, gypsies and camp fol- lowers, propose to adopt our counsels of last June and July. We have also some of the Tammany clique, who are more interested in Hoffman than Seymour. Hoffman himself would, no doubt, be glad to be relieved of Sey- mour. We suspect that Seymour stood in his way in the Tammany Convention; for Hoffman had aspired to be something better than Gov- ernor and better than a tail to the kite of Seymour, But the tables are turned, and Seymour as a candidate now appears as a tail to the kite of Hoffman, The Bohemians of the Manhattan ring have reduced Seymour to this position, and Hoffman says nothing. Dis- gusted with all these intrigues and jugglings, and paltry tricks and double dealings of the managing politicians, cliques and rings, and hungry Bohemians of the New York de- mocracy, we may look for a crushing verdict against them from the people of this Common- wealth in November, The New Revolution in Cuba and Mexico, In another part of this morning's Heratp will be found two important cable despatches about the state of affairs newly created in Cuba and Mexico by revolutionary ideas, As things stand now republicanism holds the better ground; for Generals Santa Anna and Taboada have been forced by Captain General Lersundi to leave the island of Cuba. They undertook from Havana to get up a revolution in Mexico that would set the country ablaze snd either drive the Juarez government out or leave not evena stubble field for Uncle Sam to buy or annex, The material for such a blaze was fixed in the States of Vera Cruz, Puebla, Mexico, Quéretaro, Tamaulipas and on the Rio Grande frontier, Those whose torches were to fire the Juarez fabric were Dominguez and Prieto, Negrete and Lucas, Rivera, Var- gas, Quiroga, Canales and others, The torch in each case was to be the alleged illegality in the election of the State governors. The scheme was vast, but the schemers near-sighted ; fora spy managed to cut the train. And at the very time we all thought Mexico an entire prey to rebellious flame that republic was merely indulging in a rare show of fireworks at Santa Anna’s expense. As Colonel Padilla’s evi- dence shows, they were set off by the Mexican government itself, The greasers were at first startled, finally amused, and Santa Anna has been shipped off by Captain General Lersundi to St. Thomas. There the old hero can learn from experience and from Mother Nature that the train of any earthquake, political or other- wise, must be laid deeply out of sight. There is one strange feature, however, about the news from Mexico published in this morn- ing’s Herat, It is that Governor Hernandez y Hernandez, of Vera Cruz, means to resiga because Colonel Dominguez has been pardoned by President Juarez for his complicity in the late revolt in the State of Vera Cruz, The Governor must know fully as well as we do here that when Santa Anna determined upon getting up a first class Mexican cock fight the wickedest men in that most wicked country would indulge his funcy and take his money, Tlowever, like members of our New York So- clety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, they stopped tho game before the headless and one-legged rooster, Santa Anna himself, could get into the pit. Governor Hernandez must not be too senstive, for Colonel Dominguez has been pardoned because he helped to draw out Santa Anna’s plans and secrets. The legality of the Governor's clection was assailed by the rebels only as a stepping stone to the assault upon the validity of Juarez’s own election. Such, indeed, was Santa Anna's plan for all the States, as has been divulged by Colonel Padilla. It is not a little strange to find one like Captain Gogeral Lersundi putting down a raid against republicanism on this Continont, Full credit must be given him for having preserved the neutrality of Spain ia a mavner unknown to Europeans during our own late civil war. But he has been removed from the executive con- trolof Cuba. Those who have now the power to remove him took an active share in the intervention campaign against Mexico, and encouraged the policy and wrong ideas of Napoleon aa set forth in his letter to General: Forey, July 3, 1862, that the United States should not be allowed ‘to grasp the whole Gulf of Mexico, rule thence the Antilles as well as South America, and be the sole dispenser of the products of the New World,” We have no idea of doing any of these things; our motto is now ‘Let us have peace” and not “? Empire c'est Uépie.” General Lersundi has understood this; andif by his removal the Prim junta mean to follow up the viclous plan laid out by the Conde de Reus and Napoleon IIL, they will find that the people of the Antilles as well as Mexico prefer to be annexed tothe American Union, They have had enough of bull fighting, cock fighting and all other kinds of political gambling. Our motto is peace—a good piece of Spanish America if order cannot be preserved on the Continent otherwise. Admiral Farragut Abroad. In modern times, indeed not since the days of Froissart, has any officer of the highest rank, the representative, military, naval or civil, of a distant country, been received with the re- spect and consideration abroad, by all nations and governments, which have greeted the movements and visits of the American Admiral, Farragut, From his first arrival at Cher- hourg, a year ago in July, to his recent de- parture from Constantinople, it has been a constantly recurring series of honors, ovations and banquets. ‘Two leading thoughts seem to have controlled and impelled these manifesta- tions—admiration of the man and the country. And this is the more significant that it has been a voluntary offering from monarchs and imperial governments to a citizen of the only free goy- ernment on the globe. One of the most interesting incidents of these remarkable scenes occurred at Con- stantinople. Admiral Farragut, through the American Minister, Mr. Morris, had applied for permission to come up to the city of the Sultan. It is well known that by the treaty of the five great Powers with the Turks, no war vessels are permitted to come up through the Dardanelles except those having on board a “prince of the blood.” Of course the United States, having no priuce of the blood, were excluded. Resident and visiling Americans and the gallant company on board the Frank- Iin had little hope of seeing their fine ship an- chored in the Bosphorus. But Mr. Morris adroitly took the ground with the Sultan that as Admiral Farragut had been received throughout all Europe with the honors be- stowed on princes of the blood, therefore he could not be denied these privileges in Turkey. After a few Cabinet meetings with the ambas- sadors of the five great Powers, and it is sus- pected not without opposition from some of them, Mr. Morris, with the aid of the Admiral’s good friend, General Ignatieff, the Russian Ambassador, succeeded, and the Sultan gave his firman, in the complimentary terms to the Admiral and his noble ship already published, A correspondent in Constantinople writes :— “We all felt very proud when we saw our beau- tiful flag waving gracefully from the ship just off the Golden Horn, and [ trust the spirit of Constantine the Great viewed with satisfaction the visit of civilized Yankees, if not Christians, to the city he founded and loved so well; and that the Turks will hereafter acknowledge that American blood is quite as good as that tainted with the king’s evil.” When, a few days after, the Admiral gave an entertainment on board the Franklin, the ambassadors, including those who had opposed the ship’s coming up, all came with a bearing so friendly and cour- teous, and the Admiral’s manner was so pleasing, that if the next day they had called a meeting and voted the United States the sixth great Power, it would have surprised nobody. Among the incidents and scenes at Constan- tinople none were more interesting than the invitations, so rarely extended to foreign lndies, to visit the harems. Mrs. Farragut, accompanied by Mrs. Pennock, Miss Loyal, sister of Mrs, Farragut, and Mrs. Harmony, were rowed in the Admiral’s barge to the harems of the Viceroy of Egypt and of Fuad Pacha, Minister of Foreign Affairs. They were received in the mosi flattering manner, Marked attentions were paid to all the ladies, and particularly by the queen of the harem to Mra. Farragut; and the gold and jewelled ser- vices, with diamond settings, and the fairy- like scenes, were wonderfully rich and peculiar and presented with traly Hastern magnificence. The Grand Vizier entertained the Admival and his officers at a grand banquet, with the aid, as the guests half suspected, of Aladdin's lamp, so enchantingly was everything ar- ranged, The Sultan, being the head of the Church as woll as of the State, never eats with any one, It was in Copenhagen, at his father’s table, that King George of Greece commenced his civilities to Americans, and exacted a promise from Admiral Farragut to visit Athena, and be presented to his pretty bride, Olga, niece of the Emperor of Russia, whom he was about to marry. Accordingly, leaving Constantinople, he reached Athens early in September. He happened to be there when the city was ina state of wild joy at the birth and baptism of a young prince, whom the Grecks think destined to restore Athens to its former grandeur, as a legend of the country says a king, born on Greok soil, named Constantine, will be the in- strament, The Admiral, his officers and the ladies were invited to the bapliam, which was a very grand affair, in tho Greck Church, The grandmother of the little prince, the Grand Duchess Constantine, came from St, Peters- burg to witness and assist, in the absence of the mother of the child, as a Greek woman must never be present at her child's baptism, The Admiral and his friends were invited to dine the next day at the fite given in honor of the great occasion, and the King of Greece drank the Admirai’s and Mrs, Farragut’s healths, and he said to the Admiral, “I have to-day, as you perceive, dressed in naval uni- form, and it is to honor you.” A few days after tho King and Grand Duchess came on board the Franklin to lunch, The Duchess wore a necklace of coral, lapis lazuli and pearls, blended together as are our national colors, In addition to this she had on her a Le ee ae ieee ean bosom a bow of am white and blue ribboti, which the next day she enclosed to Mra, Far- ragut, with her photograph, through our Minister, Mr. Tuckerman, who seemed highly gratified at the marked partiality the royal family showed to Americans in every way. The Admiral was at Trieste at the last date, expecting to leave about the Ist of October and to anchor in New York harbor about the 1st of November. The Appronching Elections in England. Our latest telegraphic news from England shows that the canvass is becoming active. The tide seems to be carrying Gladstone to victory. The liberals are now certain to carry all before them at the polls, It will not be surprising if Mr, Gladstoue finds himself, when the new House of Commons assembles, at the head of a party which will command a majority the like of which has not been witnessed in England for many long years. On one question at least that party will be found to act as one man. They will not have this man Disraeli to rule over them. A vote of want of confidence will be one of the first votes taken, and the result of that vote will make William Ewart Gladstone Prime Minister of the British empire. It would be absurd, however, to imagine that the liberals, with Mr. Gladstone at their head, are to have it all their own way. Mr. Disraeli is not the man to give up his place to Mr. Gladstone or any other man without a struggle. Tenacity is a characteristic of the race of which he is an illustrious son, anda genius so ferlile as his in expedients will not find it hard to devise a policy which, if it does not secure victory to himself, will be certain to give trouble to his opponents. The immediate war will be waged on the Irish Church. On this question Mr, Gladstone will bring all his forces to hear, ft dq not digicult, however, to gee that the fate of the Trish Church is inseparably linked with the fate of Church establishments all over Great Britain. The fall of the Irish Church will be the death- knell of every ecclesiastical establishment throughout the British empire. This Mr. Disraeli knows, and it will not be wonderful if the ingenious Jew by a dexterous flank movement out-Gladstones Gladstone. Mr. Gladstone, by keeping his eye steadily fixed on one object, has 40 far given unity to his party ; but the question now at issue between them is so large and involves so many consequences that we are fully prepared for a Disraeli sut- prise. Mr. Gladstone is certain to be suc- cessful at the polls; it is almost certain that he will be forced into power by a vote of the House immediately after it assembles ; but it is far from certain that the result of the Irish Church debate will not be a compromise in which Mr. Gladstone will only have secondary honors. Ketnra of John Quincy Adams from the South. It seems that Mr. John Quincy Adams has returned hurriedly from the South without ful- filling all his engagements or complying with invitations to address the people at different points, The reason for this sudden change of base in Mr. Adams’ movements is alleged to be the necessity of his presence North in con- sequence of the unmitigated muddle into which the democratic party has been plunged by the silly and criminal operations of certain addle- pated leaders and jobbing newspaper organs, This may or not be the case. But if we were to put ina guess as to the cause of Mr. Adams’ premature return we would ascribe it to the lukewarmness of Mr. A.’s reception at the hands of the leading Southera organs during his brief sojourn in the sunny land. Mr. Adams no doubt told the Southern fire-eaters some unpalatable truths which they could not swallow like sugar-coated pills, but in regard to which they did not exactly feel justfied in obeying their natural intincts and resenting on the spot. Mr. A.'s visit, however, brief as it has heen, together with his plain spoken utterances, may afford food for reflection among the candid men of the South and even- tually be productive of much good. The Fifth District— Come One, Come AllY? The irrepressible George Francis Train, hav- ing heen notified by cable despatch of his nomi- nation to Congress in the Filth district of this city, has replied to the committee, accepting the nomination, Ice adds, however, that although he had offered the money to pay all clains against him, it had been refused, as his impris- onment is for purely political reasons. John Morrissey, the candidate for re-election to Congress in the Fifth district, will thus have the advantage over George Francis Train so long as the latter is held in durance vile. A high old district is the Fifth, and (here can be no lack of aspirants to represent it in Congress. Johnny Allen, for instance, might be put up for it, notwithstanding his modestly avowed reluctance to intermeddle with polities. The State Prison and the Ponitentiary might supply “representative men” for the post. Or if, like Sterne’s starling in the Buastile, they “can't get out,” a search for ‘the wickedest man” down South or out Wost as a suitable candidate might prove successful. If, how- ever, no vagabond can be imported for the purpose, and if Train, Morrissey and Allen should all retire from the contest, why should not Miss Susan Anthony seize the opportunity to become a candidate for the Fifth district? “Come one, come all!” War rae Boys Tak or Ir.—Walking behind three boys on their way to o political meeting the other ovening, we overheard one of them announce the proposed withdrawal of the names of Soymour and Blair from the democratic Presidential ticket. After a few minutes of silent astonishment with which the news was recelyed by his companions the youngest and smallest exclaimed :—‘‘it can’t be; for what in thunder will be done with all the banners that have been painted, and the portraits on ’em? It’s too late now to go back on Seymour and Blair.” Perhaps ‘Young America” thus expressed the popular demo- cratic sentiment more truly than Barlow & Co. are aware, But so far as the portraits on the banners are concerned, they might serve as well for any other original as for Seymour and Blair. The resemblance would be equally striking and exact. By the bye, it is histori- cally curious that the physiognomy of these portraits on the banners of the German demo- cratic clubs is unmistakably German, while on the banners of the Irish demooratio clubs it is no lesa unmistakably Iriets. ‘Tas Dewonine Pika mane DeMooratio Parry is rae Hanps oF THe BouEMIANS.—All must now see the dire- ful consequences of trusting the interests of 4 great political party to Bohemians and hungry tricksters who dabble in necromancy and who venture even to conjure up bogus earthquakes in New Granada, These Bohe- mians and gypsies always liye from hand to mouth, pitching their tents here and there at random, and folding them and ste@ing silently away tosquat elsewhere, whenever the poultry, pigs and sheep of the neighborhood become too suspiciously scarce, With no settled pur- pose, with no definite policy, with only selfish motives, such people are equally unreliable and dangerous, It is not surprising that om the eve of @ momentous Presidential election they have betrayed all who had indiscreetly confided in them. They have thus (although, perhaps, half unwittingly) caused in the democratic party a convulsion infinitely more real and terrible than any New Granada earth- quakes which they could invent. Vesuvius Ovrpoye.—The eruption in the democratic party goes ahead of the eruption of Vesuvius and the etirring up of South America and all the other recent shaking up wonders. The red hot lava threatens to scorch multi- tudes of people out of comfortable places, and the sulphurous gas is eloquent of the future, while astonishing party mummeries come into thellght. Tilden, who was a still mummy twenty years ago, is thrust upon us, and that other dead man Pendleton-Hoffman shakes skele- ton hands up and down to no purpose. The only live man left of the democracy is Blair, who swears terribly that he won't resign and won't dic, but means to live to see Grant shot. Nay, he takes an early revenge on the radicals by putting on record his prediction that they will assassinate Grant within two years. Se Ee: aaEoay Ta NOTES ABOUT Towa. aa Is Mr. Bergh in town, or any of his satraps? A poor, worn-out horse hag been permitted to le, dying and uncared for in the public square, and beiween the railway tracks of the southern end of the City Hall Park, since Sunday afternoon. Is there no humanity in the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, or does sentiment, with it, take the place of the practical? It is curious coincidence, but nevertheless true, that in the autumn the faster the leaves fall from the trees tho more rapldly the ash-barrels and boxes in- crease on the sidewalks. These, it must be conceded, if not ornamental, are highly useful, Eyerybody nose it. ‘a What becomes of the garments taken from the bodies of the dead that are found in the rivers and eisowhere and taken to the Morgue? Are they sold to the old cio? men of Ghatham street, and made “go mooch betther ash new, s‘help me Father Yacob?? These questions may be considered imper- tinent, but useful. It is an entire waste of horseflesh to use itas@ propelling power for street cars, as nine out of tem of these popuiar vehicles are quite capable, by pedicu- lous aggregation, to crecp along—the pace of the fastest of them just now. One of the novei if not wholly satiafactory ways of spending the people’s money Is the maintaining (with steamers) a “river police’? Who ever heara of thelr earning their money? No one—not even the “funny main” of the Police Commissioners, The inventive powers of the hat makers must be conceded to be large—seven plus on the cranial chart, Every day they place before the public something new to attract attention and dollars. This little game ought tobe “blocked” by the discerning few. The last style of chapeau ts a cross between a Kos- suth, a sombrero, @ round and a high private’s forage cap, knocked out of shape. during his “m9 spree. There ts so much mutton eaten in the Motropotitan district just now that the members of the Board of Health (feeling that the people are ashamed of their propensity to lamb), have ordered that all woolly creatures intended for slaughter shall pass through the unfrequented streets. A Knickerboker loves his mutton; but he loves it in the dark; he don’t care to look a sheep in the face. The “Grecian bend” fs bent on being recognized, notwithstanding the squibs iired at its expense. The ladies deciare the bend “beautiful,” and the emascur lated creatures who hang to their skirts gay itis “charming, dee-ligutful, exquisite, aw!’ In order to get up the “hump’? where it ought not to be and so make the lady wearer look as. muct like a poodle on its hind legs as possible, several ad- ditional yards of silk in the tail of the skirt are added, Asan excuse for wearing these extravagant contrivances, ladies say they have quite as much right to go on “benders” as their husbands, — brothers or cousins, of course ! An upusual number of auibfttous young women have this season joined the Classes in drawing, painting, engraving and sculpiuring at the Cooper Institute, How art-ful our New York girls are be- coming, It is said they all excel, and without much teaching, In drawing young men, on canvas, oi course, and in making “dear Ittie angels."? A first class place for originating dissases of the eyo is the Tompkins square parade ground. It isso dusiy, bare and glary in the sun that optialinia rang riot init.
