Tweed or O’Brien for Our Next Gove ernor?=That’s the Question. \ In these stirring times of revolution we don’t know what may happen from day to day, and 80 we ought to be prepared for anything in the changes and movements of dynasties, States and political parties. The tremendous events ‘which for the last six months have been ‘shaking the political and religious systems of old Europe to their very foundations have here so far diverted the public mind from our own political affairs that very few of our readers are aware how far we ourselves are “Sn the midst of a revolution.” Take the single State of New York, however, and look at the political ‘‘slates” and plans which on ‘both sides have been knocked on the head ‘since our November election, and the intelli- gent reader will begin to comprehend the revolutionary drift of events here and all around us. Before our November election it w was Monght at Washington that General Woodford might ‘be chosen our Governor. Had he been his election would have added such a lofty feather ‘to the cap of General Grant as to silence the mutineers in the republican camp—Sumner, Schurz, Fenton and all the rest—while spiking at once the big gun of Tammany for the aext Presidency. But with Hoffman's triumphant re-election Sumner becomes domineering in his audacity against Grant, Schurz becomes -vainglorious over his Missouri bolt, Fenton is’ dictatorial in regard to Murphy and our Cus- tom House, and Greeley is so far em- boldened as to express his doubts of Grant's availability for another term. Tammany, on the other hand, is so far exalted that ber unwise provincial organs and camp followers forthwith proclaim Hoffman the coming man—our next President, certain and gure, Butan outcry from ‘‘the fierce demo- cracie” of the West against the assumptions of Tammany and the presumptions of “Big Six” soon puts a stop to this Hoffman «nusic. Tammany, however, has a sachem, a shrewd end sagacious ‘big Indian,” equal to the emergency, and Mayor Hall is the man. He sees how the cat is jumping, and he meets the case at once by authority from the Wigwam in the withdrawal of Hoffman from the course and in recognizing the claims of the great West, This imperial concession mollifies at once the Western democracy, and ‘‘the Pen- dleton escort” are ready to forgive and forget the shabby trick by which Seymour cut out their champion in the Tammany Convention of 1868. But the withdrawal of Hoffman from the ‘Presidential track results in a new democratic slate for New York. Hoffman, they say, is reserved for the United States Senate in place of Conkling, when his present term expires. This will be a nice position in which to keep Hoffman before the people for 1876. Very good, Who, then, is to take the place of Heff- man next time for Governor? They say, again, that “Big Six” has booked Mr. Tweed for this vacancy, with the idea that Tammany will carry him through so triumphantly that, if either Pendleton or Hendricks or any other democrat in 1872 is elected President, Tweed will be pro- moted to the United States Treasury. This arrangement looks plausible and promising, but what is the special claim of Tweed to the office of Governor? The recent donation of “Big Six” of fifty thousand dollars for the benefit of the poor of the Seventh ward of New York. Is that all? No, thatis not all. Mr. Tweed has the additional claim of a chairman who has become a millionaire in ranning the Tam- many machine, Is not such a man as Gov- ernor the man to enrich the State, the man to ‘pay off the State debt of thirty-five millions and to leave a surplus at the end of two years in the Treasury? Perhaps; and yet against ‘Tweed our man is O’Brien, ex-Sheriff O’Brien, the young and benevolent Jimmy O’Brien. Wherefore? Because, if Tweed has just given to the poor of his ward fifty thousand dollars, O’Brien has been giving for three or four years past to the poor of his ward twenty thousand dollars or more every winter in the substantial cash article of coal, good anthracite coal. Aud he has made no fuss about it, for it is only since this fifty thou- sand flare-up of Tweed that O’Brien’s charities have been found ont. O'Brien, too, has a more popular sound than Tweed. The name of O’Brien recalls the patriots and patriotism of old Ireland, while the name of Tweed just as naturally leads us to ‘“‘tweedleduin” and ‘‘tweedledee.” Furthermore, O’Brien is young, fresh, active and vigorous; while Tweed, they say, is getting heavy, lazy and slow. From all that we can learn, too, O’Brien is far ahead of Tweed in statesmanship, and in the same position would beat him as a political manager out of sight. As an off-hand speaker O'Brien is said to be brilliant, racy and sparkling—it runs in the breed—while ‘Tweed is no orator at all. There is a mine of good materials in O’Brien still to be developed, while Tweed’s intellectual piacer has been worked down to the hard pan. And yet, again, if Tweed has the cool calculation of the Yankee, O’Brien has the warm enthusiasm of an Irishman. If the one goes in ‘‘on the make,” the other goes infor the cause, make or break. If Tweed excels in money O’Brien excels in muscle, and the Fenians are behind him. Lastly, as the champion of “the Young Democracy,” let O’Brien be taken up for our next Governor by Tammany, and she will gain at once fifiy thousand Jona fide voters, to say nothing of repeaters, which will be better than e million of dollars from Tweed to the poor of the Seventh ward. Such are some of our reasons in favor of O’Brien against Tweed as our next democratic candidate for Governor, and we think they will do.

K NEW “TORE HERALD, PHURSVAY, JANUARY 6, 1871—TRIPLE SHEET. Germany and Hoftand. X Now that Count Bismarck has #0 far com. pleted his work and made Germany a unit the question is being discussed in Wol- land and all over Germany whether the time has not come when the Dutch and the sons of Fatherland should shake hands and allow the German race to reveal itself in its true proportions, “The new empire needs the German Ocean. It needs ships and colo- nies. The Dutch have ships and colonies too, But the fleet and the colonies of Holland want life. The Dutch colonies on the coast of Africa and in the Eastern seas have sunk to a condition which makes the European almost, éontemptible in the eyes of the African, the Mongol and the Malay. The new German empire will never be complete until it includes Holland and all its dependencies, Tt will not be wonderful if out of this Luxembourg diffi- culty. the union of Holland with Germany should grow. The gain to Hollaad and to Germany would be mutual. The Dutch might seem to lose, but their gain would bezréat than their loss, We express sentiments which are shared by thousands upon thousands both on this Continent andin Europe. Asa few months will show, we are not yet done with German annexation, Tko Ball Season. To-night the winter festivities of 1871 will be splendidly inaugurated by the ball of the Americus Club, The Academy of Music will be connected with Irving Hall by an arched passageway, laid with Brussels carpets and covered with silk bunting, and the halls of both buildings will be ablaze with the splen- dor of flowers and gaslight and beautiful womer. Music will resound and hundreds of graceful couples will trip the light fantastic! toe ina style higify creditable to the Fer- reros and De Garmos of the period. In both of the two buildings banqueting tables will be spread, with a supper by Ashman, that would have equally surprised and delighted the magnificent and luxurious Lueullus him- self. On January@ the first annual and social reunion of the ‘‘Veterans ‘of the National Guard” will be held in the Armory of the Seventh regiment. On January 10 the Acad- emy of Music will again be thrown open and riehly decorated for a charity ball in aid of the State Homeropathiofeylu for the Insane ; on January 17 the ball of the Knights of St. Patrick; on January 23 the fourteenth annual ball of the Young Men's Asseciation in aid of the New York Catholic Orphan Asylum, and ou January 30 the Firemen’s ball, or the forty- second anaual ball in aid of the Widows and Orphans’ Fund of the late New York Fire Department, will also be given at the Academy of Music. This spacious building, now that Ttalian opera seems to have been perpetually banished from its walls, can be devoted no more appropriately than to balls, which, uniting innocent mirth to the high purposes of benevolence, will multiply the claims of New Yerk to its honorable title of the City of Charities. The balls which we have enume- rated are but a few of those which promise to enliven the season. Tke We print a communication to-day relative to the coal question, which will certainly prove interesting to ail consumers of that article. It states that the Pennsylvania Coal Company will supply one ton of coal at atime, to any one address, for six dollars and a half a ton, while other dealers are charging from seven anda half to nine dollars a ton. The communication is intended to answer the state- ment of another correspondent, a manufac- turer, wo complained through our columns a few days ago that this company violated its contract with him by refusing to deliver the amount of coal at a fixed price contracted for, and offering ouly to furnish one ton a day, while the business of the mannfacturer de- manded the supply of twenty-five tons a week. Now, while it is well fer the poor to know that they can purchase coal at this cheap rate, the fact does not reach the question as to whether the company is not bouad to fulfil its contracts with customers, made in good faith. It will not do to make an arbiirary rule that not more than one ton of coal a day shall be delivered to one person while there are out- standing contracts to be fulfilled. Meantime we are very glad to know that poor people can obtain the article from any company that prefesses to sell at moderate prices and not to exact ‘‘monopolists’ rates.” Price of Cont.

M.
