In this fespect the Cuban Constitution has proved very potent, notwithstanding Mr. SumNen’s falee arsertion that Cuba had inaugurated hwo Constitutione—one intended to capti vate the sympathies of the outside world, the other for actual use. Phe Spaniards in Cuba have been fighting, ince the republican standard was firet taised in Cuba, for no other object than the preservation of slavery. For this sole pur- pose, and utterly regardless of who might nominally own the island as long as this property was secured to them, they have risked and sacrificed of It is not wonderful, therefore, when enormous sums money. they fecl that Spain, in compliance with the public opinion of the world, is ready to wipe out their beloved institution, and the only ‘one they have worth fighting for, that they bhould in despair turn to the Cubans. The propositions said to have been sent to President Cesrepes are, that all parties in Cuba shall unite in declaring Cuba indepon- dent of Spain ; that all Spanish civilians at present in the island remain in the enjoy- ment of their possessions; that Spain be Bcommoned to withdraw her navy and army that a treaty of peace and of commerce be offered to Spain which shall be beneficial W her; that the slave trade be abolished, bat that severy ehall be preserved. Inasmuch as the men who have tendered these propositions to the Cubans are the tame who have paid very Spanish soldicr and every Spanish gailor serving on Caban wil or in Cuban waters for two years past, the offer on their part to unite with the Cubans in recuriny the independence of the Bland is equivalent to a guarantee of one of the aims of the patriots. Cuba would of vourse at once become independent; but ple, tnd #0, we are confident, the Cubans will lecide, Bat if by some misfortune their two years’ struggle for all the noblest aims men can fight for on earth ehould have dispirited them to such an extent as to induce them to their last condition is utterly inndmissit Mecept terms repugnant to their principles but whose acceptance would at any rate free then) {0m one supreme evil, the despotism Of Spo shig country will have for the continuance of the curd insti ery n, the “epublican Administration of Cen mainly to blame vation of sla in this northern hen’ where.

Jndge Leowitn having been defeated, the organs of the Tammany Ring naturally expend upon him the joere and scoffs which suggest themselves to their imagination ; but he has made a ran which he nood not be ashamed of. He has received in round num- bere forty-six thousand votes. Considering how he was hampered and weighted, theso figures afford conclusive evidence of the con- fidence and regard in which he is held by his fellow-citizens, Judge Lrpwitit was the candidate of a weak and broken-down organization, He represented the Young Democracy, but it was a very different party from that power ful and defiant Young Democracy which last winter boldly grappled with Tammany, and, but for the venality and treachery of the Republicans in the Legislature, would have overthrown the despotism of T'weep and Sweeny forever. Then the Young De mocracy counted among their leaders such men asJAMes O'Brien, Tomas J, CREAMER, MicuakL Norton, and Hanny Ge Under their lead the Young Democracy were prepared toturn out the Ring; to give to this city ® charter which would secure an honest and economical government; to enact an election law which would render unneces sary any Congressional interference ; to seo that no citizen should hold more than one office ; to render the police efficient, but to Prevent its use for partisun purposes; and to put an end to sinecures and to that wate of the public money which now corrup * all classes of our people, and adds enormously to the taxation which weighs them down, But these fair promises were destroyed by the blindness and cupidity of the Republi cans, and since then the Young Democracy has been a namo rather than a power. When Judge Lepwitu was first nomi- nated, it was supposed by some that he would derive strength from an alliance with the Republican party ; but as the canvass pro- ceeded it became plain that the Republican candidate for Governor was enough to weaken, if not break down, any ticket with which he was connected. If the Republicans had nominated for Gov- ernor some man like MARSHAL O, Roberts, GronGe OrpyxKe, or Isaac SuERMAN, the candidate of the Young Democracy for Mayor would not have been injured by an alliance with him; but when they put up Woo FonD, the defeat of all opposition to Tam many became certain, Thousands, both of Republicans and of Democrats, desirous of reform, resolved not to be registered ; and of thosa who were registered many thow sands did not vote. ‘The result was, that four thousand electors voted for Governor who did not vote for Mayor at all; and that the forty-five thousand ballots cast for Judge Lepwittt are so many proofs of the confi dence which our citizens feel in him person ally, rather than of the strength of any po litical combination by which he was sup ported, Though defeated now, the man who has polled such a vote rewains formidable among our politicians, and must be con. spicuous in any future movement to relieve this of the despotism and the corruption of Tammany Hall, —— The Truth Getting Acknowledged. Now that the election is over, we are get ting a little additional evidence as to the means by which the nomination of SrEwART 1, WoopronD was carried at Saratoga, and that of Honack GRreecey prevented. The Tribune of yesterday says: “We cannot doubt that Federal offices were bestowed or promised to secure an anti-FENTON prepon derance in that Convention ; and in selecting candidates for our State ticket, the question of Fsnvon or anti TON was more re. garded by many than the nomination of strong and popular candidates.” Presently we shall have the Z'iribune also admitting the fact that some delegates whom the mere promise of office could not sway from their allegiance to Senator FENTON and to Inis friend GnuerLey were also take fronr them by the seductions of mone: It. world be interesting also to know what is Mr. Gnepy, &¥'S present judgment respect- ing the evidence Which connects STEWART L Woopronp with the Sending out of the bark Augusta upon a slave.."ading voyage.
