It 1 aald that the phyalclana who attended President Gabpield will preterit no bill, but leave it to the Government to, pay what it pleasea. Such court at that it above critlcitm. I (n a communication printed on tbit page -the luriadiction of watch-houe justlcee in Cuflulo teemt to be pretty thoroughly explained, and in favor of the pretent practice which hat been tomewhat vigoroutly quel tloned and condemned. It It tuggetted that the. dead-lock in the Board of Supervisor! had better be opened by a compromise.

Thjaisthe right sort of talk, and it is the more likely to beltved. up bj because it -really does not involve any. self-denial oa the President's pert, He has a greater number of legitimate vacancies to fill than any reasonable man, not possessed by a mania for political intrigue, would care to have to 4o with. Besides several new nteaa-bets of the Cabinet and aa Associate Judos of tbe Supreme Coart, he aaust nominate, when Congress meets, six or -seven) Ministers to foreign countries, several important Coo sals, aa Assistant Secretary of State, a Superintendent of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, a number of Collectors, including one at Oswego, a number of Marshals and District Attorneys, sn Assistant, Treasurer at Cincinnati, a Chief Justice of Dakota, aa Associate Jastice of Wyoming, a Governor for Arizona, a Commissioner of Railroads, and a few Surveyors-General.

Tbey therefore ask all who receive the circular to bring to the notice of their Members of Congress these facts, to the end that they may be interested in securing for as at the approaching teu tion such legislation at will at once aad forever put! a stop to the farther spread of polygamy." They ask to have the anti-polygamy law of Congress amended that the living together of parties or ethabitation, to use a legal term ahall be the proof of bigamy or polygamy, in stead of the ceremony of marriage, because the lat ter is performed in secret within the walls of' the Endowment House, in the pretence of faithful Mormons only, and no one of these will bear testi mony to the fscts that polygamy shall be a coo tin Uous crime, instead of being allowed (aa now) to expire within thiee years, by a statute of limitation; that the women shall be equally punishable with the men for this offense; that the accessories to thej polygamous marriage shall be equally punishable With the principals; that the jury-list may be increased to aoo: and that adalterv. seduction, lewd and lascivious cohabitation, and kindred offenses msy be punishable as in the States and other Territories of the Union. The law as it now stsnds is practically a dead letter, because of its defectsJonly two persons having been convicted under it la the' eighteen years it bss been on the statute-book.

Mormooism is no longer confined to Utah, but already holds the balance of powefia Idaho; and has gained a strong foothold ia Wyoming, Arizona! and Southern Colorado, The appeal of these men. who are daily thrown into contact with the festering sore of polygamy, and wbo speak from actual observa tion of its evils, should not go unheeded.

A WORKIttGMAN ON CONVICT LABOR.

Editor Buffalo Expsiss: A card has recently appeared in some of your contemporaries, from one of oar late unsuccessful aspirants to legislative honors, Mr. Hogan, evincing much patriotic sympathy for the working classes, for tbe alleviation of whose condition be desires to be officially positioned in order to secure legislation favorable to their in terests: Mr, being an obscure member of that vast body of perpetual toilers, I deem it competent to svaU myselt ofthis opportunity to make a few cursory remarke. 1 i In the firstplace, he injudicioutly advocates the expediency of the abolishment of prison labor as far as it conflicts With the interests of monopoly, thereby throwing the responsibility of the maintenance of the criminal classes oa over-burdened honest industry. He also asserts that the organized bodies with whom be bat been associated failed to assist him pecuniarily or otbetwisev but simply, recom mended him to others, that tbey might do for bim that which tbey lelt indisposed to do themselves, Tbeceiore, at aa evidence of hia political rectitude. be accypta the conditions imposed bv that hitherto-mighty potentate, tbe Buffalo Machine, which ia now deposed, thanks to the indefatigable exertions of The Buffalo Exraass in the promotion of the people best interests.

workingman. I. I I CITY AND COUNTY tEDrroa Buffalo Expxxss: By a little per. verting of some facts, suppression of others, and by dodging the gravamen of the question, Mr. Foster appears to think that he has forced a conclusion different from that reached in my former Communi cation.

It is. necessary only to invite Mr. Foster's attention to what I wrote, and when he answers that ape -may be in a condition to take up a new issue. Which he evidently would like to raisej leav ing those on tbe tapis undisposed of. I wtote, "The' representatives from tha country towns, find ing themselves in a msjority, spring upon the Board a resolution adopting a report from a part of the Committee on Equalization, by.

which, the basis of taxation for tbe ordinaryexpeosej of tbe County for 1681 is made 74 per cent, for tbe city and 36 per cent, for tbe towns, thus changing the basis from 70 and 30, whuh have been the proportions for nearly ao rears. 1 i Until Mr. Foster either admits or disproves this statement, all reiteration of words and figures in which he indulges must be regarded as but idle wind' I While I am tempted to contradict several things that Mr. Foster tries to make me say, I must forego doing So, as the subject under consideration Is not so much a matter of personal pride as seeking to establish a principle that appears to be necessary for the future peace and safely lof the whole County of Erie. 1 1 jj Mr.i Foster, in effect, accepts my challenge 'to compare city ana town valuations, as made by tbe assessors, wit a actual sates ot real estate, but only partially fulfills the of the challenge, which was that if be would cite one casewheieia sn actual bargain and sale the property sold for less than the town assessors' valuation, I would furnish five cases ini the city, and if he furnished five cases from tbe country towns would furnish twenty-five from the city.

Mr. F. has failed to mention one, but asserts with hia usual recklessness that he knows of property sold in tbe town of Manila lor two-tnirds ot its attested valuation. I therefore move the formality of naming seller. buyer, 1 date, consideration, valuation, place, and page of record, and beg to append to this letter a schedule made from books in the Clerk's office of Erie County, cootsining a specimen brick from every ward abd town in tbe county.

Evidence of thia kind can be forthcoming to an extant that will justify every statement advanced by me. i -Now, inasmuch as this controversy is arrowed down to two propositions, neither of wbicn Mr, Foster has attempted to answer, and as the facts that sapport them are all matters of record in 4he published proceedings of tbe Board, and as Mr, F. cannot-lie permitted to. dodge the issue, I will briefly stale them, 1. That for nearly -20 years-the rate of equalization as between the cities and towns has been 70 and 30 per cent, respectively, The scale of valuationt by city assessors is maximupt and la tne towns minimum.

And aa Mr. rotter wniajot attempt again to con trovert tbem, I beg to say, before taking leave of him, that whatever my opinion may be of that gentleman aa a Supervisor, that as an honest, square-toed man he is not surpassed within tbe ranee of my ac quaintance in the county; but inside the portals of tbe supervisors" room, wnea me zraaro is in session, the members from tbe city will be acting strictly within the line of dnty by keeping a watchful eve upon tbe Supervisor from Manila.

J. S. appends to his letter a long! state-meat, taken from the book of Supervisors' Proceedings of 1877, which gives actual transactions in real estate la every ward ia the city and every towa ia the county, every city sale having been made at leas than the assessors' valuation, aad every couaty sale at more.

Walter. proprie tor of tht ndm Timet, while in New-York recently, suggested' 'that that city, which ia constantly threatened by aa impending water-famine, should supply itself with water from Lake Erie. i. The suggestion, -chough somewhat start ling at first thought, is received with some favor, and the more as the Important matter It reflected upon. It is allowed, in the first place, that the water which rushes over Niagara Falls is much purer and less liable to change in character at different seasons than that which comes from smaller rivers and, shallow ponds In the second place it is believed to be as practicable to construct a flume to supply any quantity of water it was to construct the Erie Canal, and the fall between, the two points would be sufficient, if equalled, to produce the necessary current.

This however, would be a question of engineering, and New-York Is re minded that it is a city which will soon contain 3,000,000 of human beings. Mr. Walter evidently thinks that the question of cost should not Weigh much with a city of that size, and of wealth, the thing to be surely attained is an Inex haustible supply of pure water. Another suggestion looking to the same result, is. that the water from Lake Erie might be taken to New-York by pipe-lines like those for petroleum, but of a much greater capacity.

This would be vastly less expensive than grading an open flume, and would give the great though somewhat dangerous advantage of a head of over 300 feet to the supply. This pressure would enable it to drive all machinery and extinguish all fires without tbe aid of steam engines, and the filthy streets of the teeming metropolis might be washed and its sewers flushed with the water frequently as a great sanitary measure. I 1 But if this splendid scheme is feasible for New-York, 400 miles from Erie, wily could not Buffalo infinitely better by constructing a great water-pipe line to Lake Choutauqua, a distance of only about 60 miles? That most beautiful body of pure water is oyer 700 feet above the level of Lake Erie, and the force of the fall could probably be so regulated as to furnish the cheapest motive power for all tbe machinery that could be put up in Buffalo, with a never-failing abundance of the cheapest and best waJterl in the world. What rival could this city then have as a centre of manufacturing industry We hope that this subject will attract the attention of our scientific men. We simply throw out the suggestion for what it may be worth, in view of the present high price and low supply of water in Buffalo.

If the plan should be pronounced feasible, there is doubtless idle capital enough here that would be gladly employed at a low rate of Interest in carrying it out. LAW YERS FOR LA W-MAKERS. That rather more ambitious than solid periodical, the Journal of the Agricultural Association, raises again the by no meant new question, "Why is it that to many law yers arid to few other people are elected to our deliberative and law-making' bodies? As the Journal puts It It it one of Iba notl anomakmt condition! of onr political organism, that a population composed iplinly ot iarmeri, mechanics, merchants, and mtnulaclurert, thou Id, at a rale, represented in all its legislative bodies, including Congress, by lawyer. Tha fact that It is to represented is patent, and it it certainly lima that a change in the custom which occasion it should occur. That those who live by litigation' should be privileged to make the laws whose bieaih, annulment, or misconstruction supplies them with the meant of subsistence, is stout at crude an examiple of mismanaged public policy as can well be conceived.

That those a bote Interest it that laws should ba broken should be cboaen to frame them, micht occur among a people in ttale of anarchy. Yet tha nineteenth century sees the leading republic of tka world no farther advaoced titan this in practical Mlf-govetnment. Tba situation. it much tba tame ia England, bat aot to the same extent. There, reprtsentatives of eld county families, and tantiemes expressly educated for par- litmenttry ctrecr.

sra term after term elected, and It Is a well-known fad that soma of the strongest members of tba Ilouta of Lommom are agriculturists. There is no mystery about this genera choice of lawyers for places in the law-mak ing branches of the Government. That those branches would do their work more wisely If a larger share of it were to be allot ted to manufacturers, merchants, farmers, and workmen, the iclasset upon whom the lawa as welt at the lawyers-operate," and who furnish the supplies which keep the legal machinery in motion, probably nobody doubts, Still we go on, year after year, electing almost nobody but lawyers to tbe various Legislatures and to The reason is, simply, that lawyers are trained to public speaking. "Fluency in that tort bl thing the gift of gab," as the vernacular hath it is not only more common in America than almost anywhere else, but also more admired. Why it should be so much admired.

Is another and a harder question. words spoken in a loud tone of voice by a man un should be more impressive and con vincing than words spoken in a conversa tional tone by a man sitting down' is ex plainable plausibly enough in several ways, but none of tbe explanations seems quite to satisfy. A man declaiming to a Crowd uses, and good taste justifies him in using, more exalted and fervid terms 01 ex pression than can be used in conversation without seeming affected and absurd. But high-flown talk' should not affect tbe mind of a man ol good sense unless it clothes ex alted ideas, and such ideas may be as well and as clearly set forth In the terms of ordi nary conversation aa ia sonorous and long drwn periods. A public speaker can be heard by more people at once, and there is a tympathetic contagion in a crowd, but if a nan thinks for himself he need not yield td it.

Sometimes we are in dined to think that the greater in ftuence of oratory is due altogether to its greater noise. A command shouted at a man, or even at an animal, has a vastly dif ferent effect from tbe same Command spoken in an ordinary There is prob ably an instinct, which man shares, with the other animals, that makes mere noise, if there is enough of It, carry conviction to the soul, and li is perhaps only because his reason is educated to struggle against such an influence that any man is enabled to hold out against some of the human foghorns of tbe stump, Nobody pretends that lawyers are more conscientious or more industrious or more patriotic or know more than many merchants and doctors and manufacturers and farmers. On the contrary, the general opinion is that tbey need more watching, because they are up to more tricks and are less scrupulous, than any other class of men. This, tf true. makes them the most expensive and trouble some class of lawmakers.
