Defect eons to beat since ta tocia which ssem to show that tba evidence whlck the family Iiibl afforde is hardly of a character to put th burden of ditprorisc th racord 'tbara on tba aid of Judge fepeir. It now appear that, although tba record of tba birth la pat down aa la 1810, tba Bibla Haalf beat the imprint iof tba roar 1S20. Tbia eetab-lWhea ta fact that th ntry tha birth could aot bara ba mada la tba Bible until at toast 30 years aftar tba birth Itoelf, aid inch aa entry would hardly be deemed to bare the weight which la accorded by law to cam where tea entry la the family Bible to made at or aaar the date of birth. Another circnautaBcetoo, baa been noticed by tboee who bare examined the Bible, and thai la that tbara ia aa erasure and a rery palpable oa just at' the plaee where the entry of Judge Bpeir's birth appaara. Thla matter, trifling Ta it It, whea taken into eonaideratioa with the other circumstance of the case, obtains soma aiguifleance, and it is deemed unlikely that any court would take tha Bible record ia art-denee at all.

I Outside of all tbeae facta, bewerer, tba legal aspect of MrJ O'Gorman's position ia aa Inter acting one, and It baa beea lately discussed quite generally among lawyer. Under tha circumstances. Got. Cornell, It is conceded, will feel bound to act oa Dec. SI of the present year in aecordaaee with Judge Bpeir's latter of resignation, and appoint some one to fill the letters place.

The Oorernor, in acting, will be guided by facto set forth in the certificate filed by Judge Bpair at I the time of bis assuming ofllee which shows be will not be 70 years old until next year. The ovtifleate ia by law pre-aamptiTe evidence of the troth of its contents, and the Governor would net be juittfled in Ignoring the facta contained la it. Wb oarer be appoints will receive a commission under seal, and will apply to the Judges of the Superior Court to Jbe assigned to duty. Outside of any mere question of partisanshipalthough aa matter of fact there are three Republican and two Democratic members of the court--tbe Judges there will doubtless recognise the Governor's appointee as the legal incumbent 1 In coming to this conclusion they will unquestionably take Into consideration the fact that to act otherwise will be to adjudicate their former colleague. Judge Bpeir, i aa a liar in baring -sworn erroneously to the r-tiflcate of age filed with the Secretary of Btate.

Tney would also be casting a slur on the Oorernor, who ia to be presumed to be acting on proper -authority. It is hardly disputed that the Judges of the Superior Court will, as a body, refuse to recognize Mr. O' Gorman as a legally chosen Judge. What Mr. O'Uormaa is then to do ia rather problemati cal.

The WorUi on the day after election said that "jit will be legally in order for Mr. O'Oorman to apply to Attorney-General Ek'boonmakflr for a writ of quo warranto as against the recognized incumbent in order to tost that imnnrtxjnt's claim, and, doubtless, tbe trial wllj be facilitated by aa order of the Supreme Court." This dictum will hardly be accepted aa conclusive, the less so, perhaps, from thefactthatthe in copying lor prveent use ija election tlguree of several year ago also copied the name of the then Attorney-General, aad who now holds no olllce although be was recently a candidate for Judge of Che Court of Appeal. Mr. Leslie W. Russell was recenUy elected Attorney -General, and wilt doubtless, assume the duties of the office on Jan.

1, 18SS3 If Mr. O'Oorman wishes to contest the right the Governor's appointee to hold tbe office It will necessary for him to obtain tbe At-. tornoy-Oeaeral's permission to bring a proceeding in the nature of a.quo warranto. This permission tbe Attorney-General will certainly aot be justified in giving, lie will undoubtedly take It for granted that tha Governor bad investigated ttie matter before appointing a man 'to the office. Under these circumstances, it is apparent that Mr.

O'Oorman would be helpless as far as asserting legally any right to the Office to which be claims to -have been elected. The Oov-' rrnor's appointment would borne before tbe Benato lor; approval, and thai. body, being Democratic, might reject the name. Such retortion would oust the appointee, but would not put Mr, O'Gonnan in the position, Under the law be could put in no valid claim for sal ary, nor could be, in a suit for bis pay, have the title to the office considered. He could not tbe Attorney-General by mandamus to bring the quo warranto proceedings, there having been an adverse ad' judication on that very subject by tbe Court of Appeals in tbe Tatker notable case of Wil liam Demarest That proceeding was brought te determine' the alleged right of Demurest and others to seats in the Common Council of this City, and an effort was made to obtain a mandamus compelling Fairchlld, then Attorney-General, to bring quo-warranto pro ceedings, which be had refused to The rase is reported in the sixty-seventh volume of New-York' reports.

In the syllabus preceding tbe report of tbe- case tbe following sum- asary appears: Voder the provisions of the Code (section 483) authorizing actions ta tbe nature of a quo warranto to try tbe title to ofttce so positive duty is imposed upon the Attorney -General to brinies action noon request ef a party claiming office from which he Is txoelled. but it Is a matter within bis discretion. tad Ue courts eaanot alt tn Judgssent upon his as- yreise tnereoi or eoaree nta aeuon.

Kvea if' tbe Penate rejects the nominee or lomineea of the Governor, tba latter, can wait util the end at tbe session, and tbea appoint tome one without tbe (Senate's consent.

If no Ktion is taken by the Senate on the liovera ap-aqminee, the totter will continue to act as Judge of the Superior Court. Next year the Secretary of JBtata, ia issuing bis notices of Mectioa, will lacand in tt one for Judge of the superior Court, to 11 the vacancy caused by Indira Speir'a retirement, and tha erson chosen at tbe next November election will have the right of serving for tbe full, term of 14 years. It to rather a notable circumstance that iwo persons Messrs. Robert U. Shannon and Michael K.

Goodhart also raa at the recent election for Judge of the Superior Court. They were not, however, aiming at Judge Bpefr'a place, but at tbe position made vacant by the death of Judge Sanford, and to which Got. Cornell anooiated Judso Horace Russell. Tha only obstacle in tha way of Messrs. Shannon and Oeodhart's rlaim is the Constitution of the State of Kew-Yerk, Otherwise, their tue is good.

Statements of thia kind made by men and women alike. Tba men may ba sincere; doubtless, many of the Single ones who have enUnglement of the heart, no "girl left behind them." aad who are at the same time blessed with strong nervee had strong stomachs, may mean exactly what jtbey say. On the contrary, the woman who makes such a statement la not to be trusted. If aha tells the truth, sb may safely be regarded, in common with the female who to deaf to flattery ia one form or other, as more or less than woman. There are a great many causes which conspire to make women, if not poeisively miserable, at least ill at eaae on: board a ship.

It ia all very well for owners and agents to advertise their vessels aa being module iof convenience," fitted up with hoi and cold baths, electric bells, pianos, libraries! and every appliance calculated to increase the comfort of passengers." Despite all the appliances," the good average woman, properly constituted with a woman's likes, dislikes, aad fancies, remains unhappy. Ia the first place, she cannot dress herself satisfactorily, at least (not satisfactorily to herself. No man who baa ever beheld tha partner of hit bosom, in a fix by nine with one hand tackling tha weather-board of a berth holding it like grim death clutching a Mississippi darky and with the other making frantic efforts to perform the mysterious and awe-inspiring feat pf putting up her back hair will question or dispute tha accuracy of thla assertion. And even that feat has been performed what man can appreciate tbe hundred and one annoyances are entailed by broken and knotted strings, ribbons out of place, lacee which cannot be found, button hooks which are nowhere to be had, and pins hich before their time have disappeared and left no trace behind I To be sure, there are women, admirable creature usually married women not young, and traveling without husbands or other incumbrances, who give their minds to tbe task of dressing, and who, having succeeded in making an elaborate! toilet, succeed still better in gaining the adverse criticism and black looks of every other woman on tbe This "dressed-up is to be found on all the popular vessels crossing tbe Atlantic. Indeed, first-class European steamer seems to be complete without She must be regarded is auite as much an "appliance" as the electric bells, the library, or the piano.

I hafiMn my mind a number of the best specimens of this class. One of these who during tbe past Summer was then making according to her own story, told to every on who would listen her eighteenth trip. It was evident from her face that she had traveled a good deal indeed. Because of the fact that she bad been so mueh on the Continent," or for some other reason, she was not at all secure in the English language, which she boldly claimed as her own. But as a dresser 1 She was supreme.

No other woman on that (hip, high or low, young or old, rich or poor, dared dispute her, supremacy. She dresaed for breakfast, she dretaed to walk on the deck "poiir.de prom-not" she called it she dressed fori lunch, she dressed for dinner. Nor was she t-Ontent with dresses of woolen or of cloth. iespite tbe place, despite the wiad, the wayes, or the weather nothing but auks, ana gauzy. laees seemed to content her.

And still she was not happy. Far from it The biggest of big ships is a small apartment, a cockle-shell. in the middle of the: North Atlantic. It. wee not possible for that much-traveled, much- dressed woman to-misunderstand the looks of her fellow-passengers.

IShe was without even tbe most remarkable of satisfactions, the satisfaction which one woman feelsj when sbe knows that other women envy her. In her case the other women simply turned up their noses and ignored her. Ibe men. whatever their inclinations, under the sharp eyes of their wives, sisters, mothers, and friends, were obliged to do tbe same, and' so it came that after the second day out even thej stewardess and tbe pantrymen gave that unfortunate dressed -up woman" the cold shoulder, tto. despite the fact that she was very well to do, quite respectable, not bad-looking, and doubt- leaa rood-hearted, aa most loud 1 people are.

she crossed the ocean alone in her glory alone, leneiy, ana unnappy. ibere to another class of what are technical ly called "ship I refer to "the spasmodic or sudden and unexpected dreeser." To describe one of tbe elaaa is to describe them all. bbe came on board the ship c)ad aa sensibly and appropriately as a woma could be. She was not those deluded mortals who had been governed by tbe guide-books. Evidently she had not taken' tbe following very bad advice wmch is given in one of the most popular of them: "If yen are going abroad for a season of travel, take almost nothing.

You can never know what you need until the necessity arises. If you anticipate yeu misjudge. Your American outfit will; render you an oddity in iuigiand. nut do Aot change there, or yon will be still more Isingular in Faria. It to as well to start with but one dress besides the one your wear on tbe steamer anything you have; a black alpaca or half- worn black suk very serviceable.

When you reach Peris circumstances aad the season will govern your purchases, i.nd this dress will be almost a neces sity for constant i railway 1 journeys, rainy day sight-seeing, and mufe-riding ia Switzerland. A uttla care aad brushing, fresh linen, and a pretty French tie will make it presentable if not more at any hotel dinner- table." ibe ioonshman who gave such advice, though on pleasure bent, must indeed have had a very frugal mind. He bad no dis ciple lu our yonnr lady. As has been said, aha came on board the ship well and sensibly clad. She had two pretty traveling suite, trim, well cut.

and well made. One was of rough dark-brown: cloth, tha other of black nanaeL. Ua. was cool ana iigh the other thick and warm. And ahe was well provided' with shawls, cloaks, wraps, and hoods, as every woman, old or young, who crosses the Alias no ia any season ouguc to be.

Altogether she seemed to tie one of tbe specimens of sensible, well-informed, wholesome young womanhood most frequently met with In tbe smallur American cities. But she lost her head. A dashing young English man, of the cheery, frank-faoed, open-handed. quidc-witted sort, made love to nor, paid aer, as our girls say, ever so much attention," and not tne ordinary saip-ooara sHenuan, wnicn unfortunately consists for the most part in a fetching and carrying of cold toast and sloppy tea, a frequent invitation in the evenings to look at the phosphorescent light ever the side or at tbe stern, and possibly towari the end of the voyage of aa occasional sly squeezing of annua. Jiot that kind I attention, nut the pea, honest sort.

Long walks on the deck in bread daylight, at dash of cold champagne with a tempting little lunch, -and a straightforward wrapping up, feet lacluded. in comfortable Chairs, with warm ruga and blanket shawls, Of course, tbe girl was pleased, i VT hat sensible girl would aot be I The pleasure waa natural and sensible, but the heroine of the little incident, tha type of a data, it will be remembered, took anything but a sensible way showing her ratification. She waa aot content to let well enough alone, being with I her father, without her mother, had oa to give her sensible advic in the matter. Sb somehow got Into her head the idea that sbe ought to "drees up" for her admirer. There ware a number of preachers oa board the ship.

They organised aa evening meeting to pray, for fin weather, i he appeared at it dressed as though i ahe had just dropped ia- from a state dinner at sens foreign ambassador's. Th young Xaglishman looked astoaishwLt waa still attentive. Th ill-natured women sneered and the fooltoh ones giggled, and if tha young woman, wh for th occasion waa the centre of attraction. reaUy much sea aa at first ah appeared to ah must bar beea decidedly ember- Still, ah learned nothing by aer ex- pendn ef! the evening. The very next day, it being dear aad fine the wicked Captain declared that the paneas waited till they found tbe aarometer was going steadily up and then began pray for good weather abe appeared oa deck in a complete walking-auit of fawn-colored silk, gloves and Ibenaet to match, and to astand morning prayer, which bad beea announced, duly provided with the most be witch ing of lac handkerchiefs aad the daintiest or prayer-books.

I Coming out of a fashionable Fifth-avaaa church oa a bright Spring morning Eier costume would tare beea faultless. Hov, out of place it waa on ship-board need not 1 dilated upon. It to only neceesary to say i hat her admirer of the day before did not Iota Umt in her walk or at the service. A number rude people laughed at aad criticised her nenly.i This she noticed, and went back at oi cm, too suddenly, ia fact, to her sensible and I plain dark traveling dress, ana as taa sam time to obscurity. The young Jtngiun-maalnevar recovered from the effects of her mdoWnnexpected, aad inappropriate bloasom- ing rat.

He was attentive no longer, ror the i est of the trip he devoted himself aasida-ousl to the smoke-room and the thankless task' of retting np pools on the daily run of the ship, They were both made, for the time at least discontented, if not unhappy, made so by too much dressing in the wrong place. But tne Question oi ciotnes is bus oojj one which irouuiaa a woman on snipDoara, ua Incidentally gives more or leas annoyance to her tnaacalina' belongings. Even if she succeed, with great difficulty if at all. In making herself presentable according to her own and other women's notions, and at the same time making herself half-way comfortable, her trials are inly half over. Let it be assumed that it to a fine day, and aba ia seated on the deck near the fficerr bridge for some unaccountable reas they all cluster around the officers' brld ta.

Let it be further assumed that she has reeo rered from her first attack of: see-sic k-nees and forgotten all about tbe damp, hot, horrible smalls of the little pea calli I by courtesy a state-room let i even be assumed that she has happily eeca wd frem the snares thrown around her by that inevitablebore, the experienced traveler' who has been "all over Europe, yen knoir, crossed dozens of times, you know," aad Who, in answer tothe stereotyped question. disc vers aha la making bar first trip and fort i with proceeds to tell her all about it, you knowl let it even be assumed that she baa eecatoedfrom this affliction, she still baa in atore, indeed, straight in front of her upon tbe bridge. that greatest or au petty trouble -tne ap- taui trouoie." cue nas oeen piacea especially in his chartre she has brought him letters of in troduction, it mar be from one of the owners ot tbe line: she ought to be a woman or im portance on th ship: she is sure, indeed. thai she, to just a littla bit better than any one else! on yet. would you believe it, that terri ble paptain pays her no attention, hardly bows to Her.

and even when he takes it into his head to fiare at the sun through those rldiculonsly- coldred- clause to so rude as not to answer her polite questions in regard to the state or nis health and the probability of the ship making cloi connection with the afternoon train for Loi don. Un tbe other band, it may oe mat son modest, retiring, plainly dressed person wh' i keep her own counsel and is slow to make aea laintances. and who sits ia a corner of the deck away from the bridge and out ot tbe way of the officer on duty, may actually, be approached bv the Captain, talked to for 10 minutes at a time, and afterward seen in con variation over a plate of grapes or some otner daiLtv with the Captain's own servant Bo strings are the ways of the men who command ocean steamers. UI course, tae ordinary woman 1 who receives such attention mutt by i all her fellow-passengers be- regarded! with suspicion, or if she be abdve that it may at least be maintained that shoiis antuck-up. disagreeable thing." Alto gether.

the Captain trouble" must be regard ed i is one of the most serious with which a cer-taii i class of ocean travelers is afflicted. In bnl too many cases tbe men have it even wo tie than the women. Ko matter which way be urns tbe commander to sure to give offense to somebody. Sometimes be is accused of tall ing too much soft nonsense to his lady paentrers: at others he to charred with not doing enough for their comfort. I have beard a celebrated minivter of the Gospel roundly abuse a Captain for retiring to lis bunk after 10 hours' constant work in a storm, and thereby missing a Sunday morning service in tbe cabin.

I he same captain was. up another occasion, quite as roundly aii sed by some of the ungodly for allowing tbe saloon to be monopolized by evening pri yer-imeetings. Of course, it is a part of ev ry commander's business to be criticised for ref jsing to' answer every stupid question wb oh sjupid people put to him. and they all exj act to be abused by every little great man to rhom they are unable to give seats at the Cu stain's table." But they are used to such abie and pay little attention to it Let it be hoped that they may be equally hardened to a somewhat peculiar annoyance which has re cently appeared to make their difficult posi tiops still more difficult The cause of the annoyance may bo briefly explained. For years past it has been the cus tom on the passenger steamers running be tween is aw-1 ork ana una to give en entertainment of a more or less varied and inter esting' character for the benefit of the Liver pool Seamen's Orphanage.

Occasionally, as is the case wuen the alapieaon opera company crossne umk or Italians, all opera sing' era living witnm the narrow connnes ol one ship a professional ooneert to given and a rear- mar lee charged lor admission so the saloon. Of I eoerjie. there are those who object to this latter procedure on the rround that the saloon to vie common property of all the passengers an should be reserved for no purpose wnich excludes any one. Despite these objections, however, the concerts have be4a very successful, at least in a financial When there are no professional performers on tbe ship it to customary, at the su; sestion of the purser or some frequent tri veler acroes the ocean, for a committee of pa leengers to take the-' matter in hand. As mi well be Imagined, such committee finds no little difficulty in performing the duty re-qu red of them.

This to not so much because of any dearth of alleged talent Indeed, at fir the great difficulty is to persuade too wi ling people that they really ought not to trouble themselves to slag three comic songs. retite two tragie poems, or perform all their cnpice selections upon tbe long-sutlerlng. mich-enduring ship's piano. Then, when this aisicuity; nas been overcome in one way orl another, and a programme to ito be mide up, it is suddenly discovered, as ja truly or ginal American humorist would say, that an amateur performer at sea to very much lib an amateur performer on land, only more so In other words, it will be discovered that ali the performers want the best place in the middle of the bill that none of them are will ing to begin or end the entertaiament and th it they are all ready to "smaah the ma-cb ine" and abuse the managers unless they can have everything their own way. Of co arse, It to aot possible to oblige them alL and cc nsequenuy oi some them the committee ike bitter enemies: Btlll, they are all at heart so anxious to display their' tal-er ts 1 that at last the programme can be arranged' and the takes pi tee.

Then there is a great deal of ridicule on tbe performance by the audience, and at latt the real business of the evening a col taction. Until recently this ended the matter. viuun tne pass year or two, However, some enterprising American, presumably from aa istern state, has discovered that the great bulk of tbe money so collected is given by A Uericans, and that all of it is devoted to the nefitof an Earlhdt Institution. These facte be- in i admitted, it has become customary for a lit-tli i clique of really good patriots eocb people are always found on board an Atlantic steamer tc urge that the major portion ot th collec tion should be sent back to America. proposition has given rise 'during the past bnmmer to more than one scene of a not alto gether orderly character, and has caused so ueu bad feeling among passengers aad so aaay complaints to Captains aa to keep at sst three of the most prominent of those offl-c ala out et ships' saloons for the last daya oi voyages to Liverpool.

It to useless to arue with tbe petty- people who make this trouble. It Is usele to i tell taem that th children of sailors of every laiio ana every nationality are admitted to tie' Orphanage on equal terms; it to of no us td prove to them that ther to no similar insti tution ia New-York, or to show that Americans who go to Europe are obliged, ia the great majority ef eases, to trust themselves to th c4re of freiga seamen.

WjHasd, Preeldeat of the Woman's National Christian Temperanoe Uaion. and Mrs. Hannah Whitehall Smith, of Philadelphia, the tract-writer. A number of former and present inmates related their expertsaoe. One.

a Preibrterian minister's son, waa reformed by reading a tract at tbe Home. Another, a ruddy-faced, bright-eyed man. never read a line in the Bible until be came to the Home. He sank so tow that he lost all self-respect and even slept la lumber-piles on docks. While intoxicated one day.axeatleman who saw bim wrote tbe location of the Borne, "on the margin of a newspaper without glrlngj Its name or obleot, end told him to go to the address gives.

He forgot': about the scrap of ptiper until the next day. Wben he unthinkingly pulled It out of bis vest pocket. A third, who two weeks ago was as drunk as whiaky could make bim, said he bad become a Cliriatlan man and lost hia taste for liquor. A fourth, a fine-loo king man. was induced to go to the Home by a person who was reformed by its inmates.

An outcast for 10 years. who baa beea ta prison, said he came to bis senses at a noonday prayer-meeting, aad was directed to tbe Home, which completed his reformation. Miaa WlUard spoke of-her own brother, who waa reformed by christian Influence. The piece 'of pa per with tb street aad number written onitsug- gesiea an iaea to ner. ana sne assea way it wouia not be a good Idea to hand earda bearing eimply tae aa areas to every intoxtcatea man seen in tae street.

He might then opon inquiry find ont that it was In his power to make a man of himself once more. Mrs. Smith wished Ingersoll sud other infidels were present. Living facts and evidences of the Lord's existence and power, she said, would form an argument that would be unanswerable. I The Bealdent Manager.

HXAD OT DgPABTMBSTB ABO OTHBB1 whocb Txnxa iimi roLinciAjra ABD CITIZISI OBBBBALLT AJTXiOCa OTBR TBB The probable course whish Seth Low will adopt when he eater th Mayor's office oa the 1st of January to discussed with keen interest la the eity of Brooklyn.

The politicians naturally are Interested, for upon bia nod depends the hereafter of many members of this olsas. The dtlzeas regard the future with some oenoern. hoping that a eity Government conducted purely upon business principle win be given them, and yet fearful that th politicians may squeeze in between them and the fulflUmeut of Mr. Low's oft-repeated promise that he woul4 care for the citizens' atr3ts with th same ooncem that he manifests tn th conduct ot his own business in Burling-allp. With Mr.

Low's entry tS ofBe comes a change in the charter of of Brooklyn, jby which tbe Mayor to made the responsible head ef the eity Government being authorized to kppolnt tbe heads ot all the city departments. In tbe past the Mayor had the same appointing power. The confirmation of hia appointees, however, rested with the Board of Aldermen, and no man has ever been confirmed who has not been compelled to enter Into some sort of a dicker with the selfish Aldermen. The politicians always profited by the dicker, and bay come to ba regarded aa the real rulers of the town. Mr.

Low has as yet given no indication as to what he would do or whom he would appoint to aid hlra In carry In ir out hia promises. He to even ignorant of tbe names ef many of the city's present officers, and with a view to collecting information noon that point, as well aa to aeoualnt himself with the various departments andtheaal-ariea of their yesterday called upon Mayor Howell and requested a detailed statement of this class of information to be made out for his use. In-' asmuch as Mr low goes Into his new office un-trarameled. having refused before the election to make any promises In one Instance to a notorious politician the outloek. tor political hacks to extremely ominous.

Ko man in Brooklyn certainly eyer took office who was so free to act according to his own dictates, and no ayor ever had graver responsibilities placed upon him. i The moat Important, perhaps, of the departments lor wnicn ne wtu name a beau is tae city works Department, with its hundreds of clerks and la borers and tbe following bureaus: Engineer, Water Purveyor. Registrar of Water Kates. Sewers. Streets, aad Supplies.

The patronage of this de partment aione is almost sumcieut to run a party, and the ring Democrats always made a strong tight for Irs possession. In other osys. whea the ring had full sweep, the eerruntlon of this department was the means of saddling upon the city aa enormous debt. which will require years for payment Tbe Importanoe of selecting aa honest and capable Commissioner to manage tbe City Department will not be underestimat ed by Mr. Low.

Tbe present in cubs bent is John French, a Republican, who given tne present Demoaratio Mayor a great deal of uneasiness during tba past year by his perversity and persistent, reminders that the department was not conducted In the fashion in vogue to the palmy days of the ring. In other words, Mr. French has been a thorn in Mayor Howell's side, losing no opportunity to expose the former's official shortcomings. CoU John Y. Cul-yer.

Chief Kagineer of tha Parks, Is named as his successor. Kext to this department ranks the Department of Polio and Excise, the Excise Department being the adjunct merely of the mere powerful Police Department This, too, has always been considered a party prize, for through It the votes of the policemen, about 600 in number, and tbe liquor-dealers whom ther could Influence. were held In a tight grasp. It Is alleged that within tbe past Tear politics have been divorced from tbe Police, but there are many close observers who doubt this and laugh at the Gen. James Jourdan Is the present Police Commis sioner.

Be has the reputation of be ing a pronounced politician with Republican preferences. He has managed to retain his posi tion under both Democratic and Republican May ors, and is not prepared to resign in favor of a pronounced member of either of tbe two parties. Mr. Low will doubtless, give his claims careful consideration. The two Excise Commissioners whose successors are to be appointed are Herman Colell and W.

L. B. Stears, both Republleana i The Fire Department was run by the Democrats ror many years just as they saw nt. Jacob Worth, by means of combinations peculiar to himself, man aged to secure tbe Fire Commiaaionershlp and will hold it, it is generally conceded, no longer than will be required to appoint his successor. Worth Is nominally a Republican, but in reality a man with a party of bis own which always consults his particular Interests and never was known to disregard them.

He Is considered the trick iest politician In Kings County and tbe most unreliable. It is alleged on good ground that be worked both tooth and nail to defeat Mr. Low, with the promise eggtnghim oa that if Mr. Howell was eleeted he should be reappointed Fire Commissioner. Singulsrly enough, the department has not pee a completely contaminated oy bis man agement the rank and file continuing to dlscbargel thetr duties with remarkable efficiency considering tbe example their 'Commissioner has set them.

Tbe Department of Buildings, of which William M. Thomas, a Republican, is the head, will also come under Mr. Low's oogntzaaoe. There If some little oatroaage connected with It in the shape of clerkships and Inspectorships. Commissioner crane, a Kepumican, is tho present head of the Health Department.

The nresen't Deputy Commissioner. Dr. J. H. Raymond, who is thoroughly acquainted with Its duties, baying been connected with the department for years, is named as Commissioner Crane's successor.

No more capable sanitary officer could be found in tbe city. Tbe registry of vital statistics and the sanitary inspection ef the city are both important branches iof this de partments Dr. Raymond is a Republican. The term or Tax collector Tanner will expire early next rear, aad Mr. Low will aooolat that gentle man's successor.

Mr. Tanner Is a Republican poli tician ana a warm menu or sir. jctoweiL John L. Mitcnen, tne city Treasurer, wno ts nominally a Republican, will, it Is conceded by many Republi cans, oe compeiiea to give way to anotner. Any hopes that Michael J.

Keefe. the Regis trar of Arrears, may bare had of continuing long in nis omc wui be dispelled with the incoming ot the new year. Mr. u'Keefe is a McLaughlin Democrat, and If party is to receive any preference tt ia quite probable the Republican Party will furnish last as competent a gentleman. Ia addition to those offices.

Mr. Low will be called noon to nam a Corporation Counsel In place of Mr. William C. DeWitt, aad possibly may eontlnae that gentleman in his present position. Mr.

DeWitt is an Independent Democrat, and rendered Mayor Schroeder Invaluable aid in breaking the power of the Deroocratio ring, ana tbe Republican Party appreciates his services In consequence. Fifteen members of the Board of Education will also be appointed, tbe terms otthatnumher expiring within the present year. Addltioas will also have to be made to the uoard ot Assessors by tbe new Msyor, and with all these sdoolntments devolving nnon bun it is hardly to be wondered at that his action is awaited with a great deal of genuine concern.
