I.OSX AND FOUND. THE EAST RIYER BRIDGE. TOE UORiiFD MlfBDER Bf PHlMDELPBTd. CLAMS' EPISTLE. SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 27.

A BIS Sob Quietly Esecnted. Every day brings to light additional evidence of the rascality of the worse than burglars who are annually permitted to rob the people at Albany, under pretence of making laws for them. A few days ago we took occasion to cull attention to the folly and waste of continuing to employ a Board of four Water Commissioners after the main business for which the Board had been created had been performed. We have shown that the taxes collected by the Water Board can more efficiently, more promptly, and more cheaply be collected with the general taxes. If it be necessary to keep up a distinct department at all for the supervision of the Sewers and Water Works, one ornamental figure head is ample.

Four Commissioners are as necessary ai live wheels to a coach. The whole system is loose, wasteful and rotten. We little dreamed, while bringing our Representatives from this county to task for even continuing the Commission, that they had had the unparalleled effrontery, not only to increase the power of the Commission, but actually to increase the salaries of the Commissioners Every member of the Legislature had ocular demonstration that this Commission was not needed, for our Representatives saw in one ot the Commissioners, eveiy day of the session the most industrious member of which the "Lobby" could boast. It now appears that during the session a bill was introduced, so quietly that it escaped attention at home, giving the Commissioners power to issue bonds to the extent of one million of dollars. At a subsequent stage of proceedings this little bill was amended, by increasing the salaries of the Commissioners one thousand dollars each! So far as we know, not one of the Representatives from this county uttered a word of remonstrance.

Not one of them inquired who asked for this measure, or asked any evidence of public opinion as to its necessity or its justice. Bonds are being issued in all directions. The Park is being paid for by fects then shown may be remedied, but that remains to be proved. If the Legislature had honestly regarded the wants of New York, it would have chartered both underground and overground lines, that both experiments might have had a speedy trial. As soon as New York is provided with a system of steam railroads affording facilities for more rapid communication with the upper part of the Island and Westchester, Brooklyn must have similar facilities for travel.

We shall watch therefore with some interest the railroad experiments in New York, with a view of profiting by them when the time comes. Topics of To Dav.

The New York papers are gradually recognizing the fact that Brooklyn is a great and growing city; that its Park will surpass tho Central, and that at no very distant day its population will exceed that of its neighbor. Some brokers' boys have been engaged iu the profitable but rascally business of defrauding the Government by cleaning cancelled revenue stamps and selling them at half price.

The military authorities having withdrawn their objections, the ceremony of decking Confederate graves with ilowcrs, was duly performed at Memphis yesterday. Among many revelations Legislative coiTuption, is a statement which the Times authorizes to the effect that the managers of the lobby demanded $20,000 as a consideration for the passage of an act incorporating a Pneumatic Dispatch Company for the city of New York. The proposed corporators refused to submit to the swindle and the Pneumatic Dispatch is postponed.

THE DIFFEBENI PLANS, ROUTES AN MODES OF BUILDING. Opinions of Engineers as to the Feasibility and Pecuniary Profit Xlie Proposed Elevators at the River's Edges The Cars to be Propelled at Fifteen to Twenty Bales an Hoar by Stationary Engines What will be Done Next "Week. Every Brooklynite, resident or capitalist, is interested in the bridging or the East River. It ia a project pronounced by the most successful bridge builders in the country to be entirely practicable, and a bill has been passed authorizing certain corporators to proceed in this great work. For a day or two nothin" further will be done until a certified copy of the bill passed by the Legislature haB been received in this city.

This clerical duty will have been done by the middle of next week when a meeting of the corporators will be at once called, and prompt measures of action adopted. The meeting for this purpose have been previously held but for the fact that Hon Henry C. Murphy, who took a very lively interest in the success of the bill was absent, and Bince his return from the Legislature has not been in the best of health He iB reported better now, so that all will be in readiness to proceed next week. The first thing to be done is the appointment of an Engineer, competent to make surveys, and report upon the most feasible points of termini. To do this the size, style, material, and span of the bridge must be considered, and a good deal of time, skill, and practical experience in engineering.

It has been deemed a sort of an informal conference to invite the cooperation of Mr. Kobling, tho builder of the Niagara Suspension Bridge, and the new bridge, just completed at Cincinnati, over the Ohio. This gentleman is considered by many as the best authority on this suuject in the United States. He has just completed the bridge at Cincinnati which is an entire success. He has devoted much time to the consideration of suspension bridges, and the best material of which to construct them.

At Trenton, N. ho has the largest establishment for manufacturing wire in the world. His opinions, therefore, will be found invaluable in a work of the magnitude of the proposed bridge. It is of the first importance that this should be a success, for, by the terms of the law authorizing the construction of the bridge, the cities of New York and Brooklyn, are allowed to purchase the bridge at any time after it shall go into operation by paying an advance of 33 per cent, upon its actual cost. As it will take four years to build, and one year before it can begin to pav, the corporators will be out the interest on the money for that time, or 35 per so that if the bridge should pass out of their hands at the beginning of the sixth year, they would but just clear themselves pecuniarily, after having for five years accepted all the risks consequent upon a failure.

This is rather a onesided arrangement to look at, but when it is remembered that the real estate capitalists of Brooklyn are the men to be the most largely benefitted, it will be seen that, like the stockholders of the Academy of Music, they can afford to hold the bridge, even if it does not pay, by reason of the benefit to their property, now partially unavailable. The Bridge is intended to accommodate the passage of two hundred thousand persons daily without trouble or delay, and tho value of property will be trebled when the carriage of the rich and the Hansom of those of moderate means can pleasantly roll from Central to Prospect Park, their occupants enjoying a magnificent view from the East River bridge. In anticipation of thiB realization those who were almost frozen and were delayed last winter by the ice embargo may begin to get ready tosnap their fingers at the weather and its effects upon the surface of the East River. It is supposed that Mr. Roling will favor a bridge with one only to run from the junction of Main and Fulton streets to a point not far distant from Tammany Hall, New York.

This will give at tho termini large areas for all sorts of travel. It is thought the bridge will be 75 feet or more iu width with two walks for foot passengers of 15 feet each, two carriage ways and two trackB for cars. These latter vehicles will be moved by stutionary engines and can easily be driven at any desirable rate from ten to twenty miles per hour. It is not intended that tho cars shall stop on the bridge but shall roll along all at the same rate and cqui diBtaut from one side to the other of the river. At the shores, immediately beneath the bridges, elevators to convey passengers to the bridge without the trouble of walking a distance to take a car, will be arranged, or at least are included in the plans of those who are thinking upon this subject.

Mr. Robling will give his personal supervision to this enterprise, if desired, either as consulting or chief engineer. The plan of Col. Julius W. Adams of this city, who commanded the 1st Long Island Regiment in the war, includes a bridge with three floors.

The first for pedestrians, the second for cars, and the third and uppermost for coach, cart and general public travel. Co Adams is an authority upon bridge building. He graduated at West Point, whore he stood high as an engineer, and since the war, has Bupcr intended the construction of the bridge over the Hudson river at Albany. It is not impossible that both these gentlemen may be associated with others iu this important undertaking. Undoubtedly the summer will be consumed in the necessary surveys, but the work will not be allowed to tarry as the law provides that it shall be completed within four years, which is a sufficient time but not any too much.

The Eagle from time to time will endeavor to let its readers know of the status of this enterprise, and none must think that because tho ice is not in the river now and the need of a bridge thus palpably before the eye that nothing is being done for the accomplishment of that great link which will probably unite the present two cities in one grand corporation with 2,000, 000 inhabitants at no very distant day. Meantime our capitalists must not neglect their pecuniary duty at the proper time. THE SOUTH BROOKLYN RIOT. Examination before Justice Dunne Testimony of the Officers Previous Statements Corroborated. The examination in the case of Charles Brady, charged with being concerned with three others in an assault upon several officers of the Forty third Precinct, on Sunday, the 14th came up before Justice Dunne yesterday afternoon.

A large number of spectators were present. The testimony was as follows: Officer Jap. S. Quick, sworn. I am an officer of the Forty third Precinct on Sunday, the 14th day of April, I arrested Charles Brady in the house of Mrs.

Brink man, in Hamilton avenue, near Centre street I was patrolling down Court street when met by two gentlemen, about half past six o'clock in the evening, and they informed me that there were several persons drinking and behaving in a disorderly manner in Mrs. Brinkman's house I then went there and entered the lager beer saloon by the hallway: In the saloon I found three men in front and Mrs. Brinkman behind the counter Charles Brady was one ot the men there were lager beer glasses on the counter; I told Mrs. B. she would have to go with me, but the prisoner said I should not take her I told him I knew my duly and would take her; he said again I should not, and theu he took hold of me and a scuffle ensued we got as far as the hall door, when Officer Aldrich came to my assistance we took the prisoner to the earner of Hamilton avenue and Court street, when he called upon his friends to come to his assistance the crowd was very large by this time some of the crowd commenced to throw stones, and when at the corner of Court and Church streets, a stone struck the prisoner on the head and felled him to the ground we carried him after that to the corner of Court and Nelson streets, when the prisoner called upon his brother to take out his knife and rip the officers open; the prisoner was then rescued by the owd.

Cross exautlria The license for this saloon is in the name of Mr. H. Kouigkamp, who is the proprietor of the place the front of the place was closed, and the shutters were up the front hall door was slanting open; it was through this I entered; I do dot kuow wbether Mrs. B. lived there; did not lay hold of her, but merely asked her to go with me, when she began to cry.

and asked me not to take her; the prisoner then took hold of me by the coat and arms I struck him pn the baud when I got hold of him in the store I sold B' In "'e did not see any liquor Chas. B. Aldrich sworn Am a policeman, and was at the time or the occurrence attached to the 43d precinct; saw what occurred at the hall door; that was the first I saw of the trouble; both Officer Quick and myself were on duty and in uniform I was nearly opposite Mrs. Brinkman's when he came out of the door with the prisoner; Officer Quick rapped with his club to attract attention at his request I assisted him Brady was endeavoring to get into the house again after we got into Court street he refused to go with us, and struggled, trying to break loose from my hold; he called upon the crowd to assist him, and asked if they would see him carried off in that manner; there were about a hundred persons in, tho crowd; I recognize four persons as having been concerned in the matter; they attempted to take Brady from me, and threw stones at us Brady called upon Bome one iu the crowd to rip me open with a knife, and asked if there was no one with a knife to kill me he was struggling all the time at the corner of Church street a stone struck the prisoner in the head, hnt wo proceeded on a brother of the prisoner demanded his release, but I said I conld not help whose brother ho was he would have to go the crowd closed in around us and began to beat ub; the crowd continued to Btrikeusandbeat ub, myself in particnlar, until we got about to Nelson street there they made a grand rally, broke my hold of Brady and took him from us.

Allen. Reflections on the Election How tUe Result Came About Russian America "Weatherivlse and Otherwise A Name Wanted Thc "OAs" A Coat of Arms lor the New State. Dear Eagle You have heard of the result of the election. Beecher and I were both beaten. There are various ways of accounting for this result.

One is that neither of us got votes enough. That is understood. But why? I'll tell you. It iB owing to our imperfect system of suffrage. If the ladies had been allowed to vote, Beecher would have been elected.

I believe all the ladies, out of gratitude, would have voted for Beecher. Except, perhaps, the dressmakers, who might have preferred Cuyler. If suffrage had been universal, and the ballot box had been' sent over to Ireland, I should have polled a heavy vote in Connaught, where the O'Lanuses arc affectionately remembered. O'Pake, who was confident that I ought to be elected, engaged an Italian band of two harps and a fiddle to serenade me as soon as I was cted. The figures set aside these calculations, and the serenade was postponed.

And the speech I had prepared for the occasion was not delivered. As I have not been elected to the Convention I am not responsible for anything it may do. I begin to think this is an ungrateful country, and that genius is not appreciated here. AH my efforts to serve the public have been unavailing. I have some thoughts of leaving Brooklyn and going where talent is recognized.

The purchase of Russian America opens a new field of enterprise. A splendid field for ice companies and skating pond proprietors. The climate they say is pleasant after you get used to it. There are none of the sudden changes of temperature you experience here. It freezes steady tho year round.

It never rains there, snow is the nearest approach to it they ever experience. Winter usually sets in about the first of November and lasts till the middle of next November. They have a short summer about the first of August. Which lasts about twenty minutes. The people avail themselves of the opportunity to lay in their winter supplies.

The population is of mixed descent like that of the Eastern States. The principal races are Esquimaux, Seals, Riissians Bears and Walruses. 1 The chief productions of the country are ice, furs, ice, aurora borealises, ice, whales, icebergs, whale oii and ice. The ice crop is the largest in the United States. A statistician in the State Department has computed that a tax of half a cent a pound on all the ice produced in this new territory would pay off the National debt in six monthB, with a balance suflicient to pay the salary of the Secretary of State.

To say nothing of the income tax that might be collected from the Esquimaux. The peculiar wants of the people would open a new market for the products of American industry. The principal diet of the Russians is fried candles. Since the introduction of kerosene oil, the candle trade has declined and it is nothing like what it was when Garibaldi made long Bixes at Staten Island. The annexation to the States of so large a candle consuming population would create a revival iu the trade But the political advantages are still greater.

What a lot of now offices will be created. Collectors, Assessors, Postmasters, and such. The Esquimaux are not much addicted to correspondence but it wouldn't be the fault of the Postmasters if they had nothing to do. The territory would want to become a State, and if its sentiments at all correspond with the latitude, it would be sufficiently Northern in politics to insure prompt admission to the Union. There is a suspicion that, owing to their very northern situation, the popular ideas of the population might run to an extreme that would out radical the Radicals.

Their views on the suffrage question might out Beccher Beecher. Suppose, for instance, they insisted on extending the franchise, not only to the human population of all the races, ages, and sexes, but give the vote to the seals and walruses. Barnum'B learned seal might be one of the first Senators sent to Washington. I think of going out to the territory to run for Congress. A fellow could retire on the proceeds of one term.

The amount of mileage of a member of Congress from tho North Pole to Washington, at the present rates, would amount to $139,892 14. A man could afford to go through a groat variety of temperature at this rate. The new territory has not been named yet, aud Secretary Seward is open for proposals on the subject. Expecting to represent the country officially, I also feel interested. We would like to have something original, aud expressive.

Johnsonia has been suggested, but A. J. is rather played out and the name wouldn't go down. Being of Russian extraction, a name with a Muscovite flavor would be appropriate. All Russian nameB end with off or ski.

This has divided public opinion into two parties known as the "ofl's" and "skis." I belong to the "skis," my friend O'Pake, who belongs to the same party, has suggested the appropriate name of "Corriolanuski." Modesty forbids my expatiating on the enphony and elegance of this name. "Grodjinski" sounds well, but his Indians don't belong to the Esquimaux tribe. "Highandryski" would be very appropriate. This name was suggested by a report that Joe Reeve was going out to the territory to try and induce the Esquimaux to adopt the paid fire department system. The "offs" have a great many names.

"Danilougwayoff" is Russian, peculiar, and expressive. "Eversofaroff is not bo emphatic. "Jumpingoff" is not bad for the extremity of creation. The subject of names opens a wide field for discussion, and I will leave it to Congress, who is paid to attend to such business. I have, however, devised a coat of arms for the new State An iceberg illuminated with the rays of the aurora borealis, a walrus rampant, and the Universal Yankee seated on a barrel of whale the north pole with a jack knife.

Motto Fiat justitia mat seal um." "Let justice be done to the seals." Yours, on ice, Corky O'Lascs. Amusements. The Italian Opera. This evening, Maretzok's troupe give their last performance but one of the season. "The Carnival of Venice" will be repeated, giving us an opportunity of Baying farewell to Ronconi.

The English Opera. The Academy of Music was well filled last evening, and Miss Richings' Company met with a very cordial greeting. They gave one of the best performances of "The Bohemian Girl" within our remembrance. Though not perfect in all departments, this Is the best English Opera Company heard here since the Pyne Harrison troupe were in this country, and in one or two respects Miss Rltchings can claim some advantages over them. The great success the Richings troupe have met with this Beason In New York and other cities, aud the reception here last evening, justify the belief that English opera might be made a permament institution in this country.

If it became established, some of our American cantatrices who now devote themselves to the Italian, might join their fortunes to the English Opera. With such a prlma donna as Miss Kellogg or Miss Hanck, the fortunes of the English opera would be soon made. We hope when next Miss Richings visits New York, she will favor Brooklyn with more than one visit. The Park Theatre. Miss Laura Queen had a fair house last evening for her benefit.

To night "Romeo and Juliet" will be presented, with Mrs. Conway as Juliet, Duff as Romeo, and Conway as Mcrcntio. The farce of "Brian O'Lynn" will conclude the entertainment. Hooley's Opera House. This house was crowded last evening, and the Fire Department Fund has realized a handsome gain from Mr.

Hooley's generosity. To night the current bill, which everybody should see who can enjoy a hearty laugh, will be repeated for the last time. Hahtz. Mr. Hartz, who has won a reputation second to none as one of the great masters of the illusory art, will open at the Atheneum on Monday evening.

Mr. Gillet, tho courteous box agent at the Academy of Music, has been engaged as business manager for Mr. Hartz. We shall misB Gillet from the Academy, but what is our loss Is Hartz's gain. The Eastern District Outrage.

A preliminary examination of this case, against Michael Quirk and the three other young men charged with committing an outrageous assault on the pereou of Effle Griffin on Sunday last, was had on Wednesday before Justice Dailoy, but for want of time was further adjourned till to morrow morning. Miss Griffin made a sworn statement to the effect that Quirk and Nicholas Owen together with Charles Owen and Nicholas Keed, the two latter not yet arrested, entered the apartment occupied by herself and mother, and threaiencd to kill her if she mate any noise, at the same time drawing a knife from Mb pocket. Witness called out, however, and a Mrs. Owen and daughter, residing in the rear house, hearing her cries, ran to her assistance but were unable to effect an entrance, the door being held by two of the party. The complainant exonerated Nicholas Owens from all complicity iu the act by stating that he immediately ran away upon the first demonstration being made, upon which testimony the Justice directed that he be released from the charge at first preferred, and held as a witness.

At the Supreme Court, in Richmond Countyi Staten Island, on Wednesday morning, before Hon. John A Lott, presiding Judge, and associate Justices II. B. Metcalf, ThoB. Elliott and Blake Hitlier, the Gardiner wUI case David L.

Gardiner and another vs. Julia G. Tyler ct al was commenced before the Jury empaneled for tho trial. The will, the validity of which is at issne, yields property to the county valued at $180,000 to the charge of Jnlifl G. Tyler, widow of President John Tyler, late of Virginia, in view of the losses she sustained there during the war, she being a daughter of the late Juliana Gardiner, testatrix.

Tho main question at issue is as to the validity or the will of Mrs. Gardiner, the mother of David L. Gardiner, and of Mrs. Tyler, it being alleged by Gardiner that the wUI was procured from Mrs. Gardiner by undue influence exercised by Mrs.

Tyler. According to the will the use of it is given to Mrs. Tyler daring her life, sub ject, however, to that use being discontinued in case fig indemnified to the extent or injury done to her in Virginia. Tills paper has the Largest Circulation of any Evening paper published In the United States. Its value as an Advertising ffleUam Is therefore apparent.

The Injuctlon Cases in the Supreme Court. Yesterday the Supreme Court heard the main argument on the question of its power and duty to issue an injunction restraining Secretary Stanton, General Grant, and their subordinates from enforcing the reconstruction act in the States of Georgia and Mississippi, on the ground that said act is unconstitutional, and therefore null and void. Attorney General Stanberry represented the United States, and Charles O'Connor, of New York, appeared as the leading counsel for the States seeking the interference now asked for. The argument on both sides is exceedingly able, and the issue involved of momentous concern, not so much perhaps as ijt effects the reconstruction of the government under the plan proposed by Congress, as from the fact that the Supreme Court is now called upon to define the limits of its power as a co ordinate branch of the government. Attorney General Stanbeny bases his argument mainly on technical grounds.

"If the question were a political one," he said, "I should choose to take my place with the opposite counsel." Mr. Stanberry holds that the Court has no jurisdiction in the case under the clause of the Constitution which gives a State the right to be a party against a citizen of another State. Mr. Sfanton is indeed described as a citizen of Ohio, but it is evident that it is not as a citizen of Ohio, but as an officer of the government, that he is on posed to the State of Georgia before the Court. It happens, too, that Mr.

Stanton is a resident of the District of Columbia, and under the clause of the Constitution he cannot be made a party to this action. On these points he says: "What is the meaning of this clause of the Constitution Docs it not suppose an actual controversy be iweeu a oiuic uuu a cmou ui atiuiuur otate what is the reason of giving the jurisdiction It is that a sovereign State having a controversy with a citizen of another sovereign State, of no more but of equal acuity, shall not be required to go into the Court of that other State to ask its rights and settle the controversy which it has with the citizen, cither because it is below the dignity of the State which asserts the right, or, perhaps for fear that the State holding the jurisdiction might be partial to its own citizen. A State cannot come into 1Mb court with a suit against its own citizens, or against citizens of the District of Columbia, or citizens residing in the Territories. It is not alleged that either of these defendants is about to do anything in his individual capacity which is a subject of controversy between him and the State of Georgia. The controversy is not with them in their individual capacity as citizens of States, but with them as officers of the United States, who have no State citizenship, but are bound to reBidc here.

The place of residence of the Secretary of War and of the Commanding General is by law here. Their official residence is in this District. It is against them as officers that Georgia makes complaint, and she seeks to restrain their official acts." The second and main point made by the Attorney General is, that no injury has yet been inflicted on the State of Georgia under the proposed law. The danger she fears are remote or contingent, and may not occur at all, if the people of Georgia refuse to act nnder the act. Mr.

O'Connor rises far above all this technicality, and brings the question home to the Court: "Here is a State of the Union declaring that she is now suffering injustice under an act of Congress, and is exposed through it to still greater injustice. She claims that the act is unconstitutional, and thereforeyoid, and prays that the judicial branch of the government may afford her the protection of the Constitution which the Supreme Court of the United States was established to The following extract from Mr. O'Connor's speech deals directly with the great issue involved in this case an issue in the determination of which every state in the Union is concerned The Court muBt assume, the learned counsel has not attempted to deny.that Georgia is a State of the Union, and therefore hold the position which she claims in tuiB case as a competent censor. Then as to the constitutionality of these acts, it will be seen that, turning its back entirely upon the fundamental laws of Georgia, Congress, by its absolute will, undertakes to create a new class of electors all male citizens, 21 years of age and upward, of whatever race, eolor or previous condition, who have been resident in the State for twelve months. If Georgia is not in the Union.of course the Constitution doea not Trrntecr.

hp.r but if she is in it ub effectually as New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, or even proud Massachusetts and is it in the power of Congress, by its own arbitrary dictum, to enact that there Bhall be no further election in any of those States for State ofli cers, that the government in them shall be regarded as merely provisional, and that its army officers, backed by Hb armies, shall go into them and snail hold an election by means of which a new Constitution and new State Government may be established, and define according to its will and pleasure the constituent body It may oe said that the constituent body here is very liberally defined that it is not subject to the objoct tion of unfairness or partiality nay, it may be considered that it is very impartial, bo far as the inclusion of persons is concerned. It would have been still more impartial if it had said that all persons may vote whether residents or not. It would have been more impartial if it had admitted felonB and convicts. It would have been more impartial and more liberal if it had admitted all the ladies. It would have been more impartial and liberal if it had admitted all tho children down to the age of twelve or fourteen, or whatever age would be suflicient to enable a child to walk to the polls and cast Mb vote.

But that is not ttie question. We are here dealing with a question of power. If Congress has power to prescribe the qualilicationg of electors for State Government officers, it may prescribe them in any way it pleases." This, it seems to us, meets the whole case. The importance of the question cannot be over estimated. New York and Massachusetts may deem they have but little interest in it, but who will guarantee that their people may never be exposed to the same danger? What especial interest had Georgia in such an issue ten years age, and yet on its decision the welfare of the State for generations to come may turn to day.

Mr. O'Connors scorns the intimation that if the Court decides the law to be unconstitutional the President will not obey its decision or if he does, that he is in danger of bein impeached by Congress for not carrying out its purpose. Mr. O'Connor's appeal to the Court to meet its duty as the interpreter of the Constitution is alike forcible and eloquent Now if your Honors please, it is from these views ot the subject that we contend that the State of Georgia properly comeshere for this remedy by which to perpetuate her own existence as a State that if she is entitled to this process by law your Honors have to perform but to say bo and to give it to her. If the Executive contends with it, if the fear of a condemnation in tho Court for the trial of impeachments Bhould he so strong and so great which I cannot suppose in the case of this eminent citizen, that lie would not dare to stand upon the vindication which your judgment affords him, very well so be it.

Your Honors will have done your duty, you will have done all that was in the puwer of the Court; you will will have done all in fact that a Court could or ever ought to do in such a case, or any case. You will have pronouueed what the law is, leaving the Executive to obey it or not, as lie sees fit. ou have no power to cocercc him, and if he should not yield obedience to the judgment which yon pronounced, then the scheme of this division of powers would have been disappointed. There would be the willing opposition of the departments defeating the uegaiive voice of the third, and tho Constitution would have perished by the hands that were solicited to support it." There are trimmers in law and politics who apprehend grave dauger from the interference of the Court in this case. If there be danger in inferring the Constitution as the supreme law of the land, they are right, but not otherwise.

Let it be known that the Constitution is the true basis of settlement dissever the subject altogether from party politics, as such a decision would and the Reconstruction now contingent, remote and by every effort the obstructionists can offer to the will of the ever increasing numbers who are growing weary of the delay of the restoration of the Union, and of the return of the government to its normal condition. The New York Sun has a good word to say of Prospect Park, and our prospects generally, as follows "Few of our citizens are aware that our sister city Brooklyn, ii busily engaged in the preparation of a park which, whon completed, will surpass our own now unrivaled Central in those features which offer the greatest attractions alike to citizens and strangers. Prospect Park, as it is rightly called, will abound in fine views and extensive 'scapes, both land and water. It commands from many different points the cities of New York and Brooklyn, with glimpses of Jersey City, Newark, and many other distant places, while it seems to overlook Staten Island and nearly all tho adjacent parts of Long Island, and allows the eye to sweep the entire bay and rest upon the far away ocean. Its surface furnishes Mils and vales, thick woods and groves (ready grown), besides natural lakes and Skating ponds, and, to crown all, an almost unbounded supply of peat and rich aoil for enrichin the 8urf where luxuriant growth is desired.

New York must wake up very earty i thc morning BrooW surpass her in population as well as in parks for certainly nothing Is now needed to ensure that eventuality but free and rapid transit between the bnBinesB nf Hi.

This County was represented in the last Legislature by eight Democrats and three Republicans. Has any Representative of either parry any explanation to give of this latest and most flagrant outrage? Whatever may become of political parties here next fall, the people aiding us, this defiance of public opinion this disregard of the public interest will not go unpunished. Self preservation is the first law of nature, and in the face of this injustice, party lines snap, so far as they bind us, as a flax thread in a flame.

Party Responsibility. The Tribune wisely surrenders a position which we have shown to be untenable. With politicians, it makes a great difference "whose ox is gored." We have stated a plain principle of government; the Tribune's friends, unfortunately, will suffer by its enforcement, and hence the principle itself is sought to be ignored. We well remember when the Tribune was possessed of a clearer vision. During the Buchanan administration the misconduct of certain officials was brought to light by what was known as the "Covedo Investigating Committee." The Tribune spread the facts before the public in every conceivable light, and argued stoutly that the parry in control of the Government should be held responsible for the corruption it had the power to prevent.

The Tribune contends now that it is manifestly unfair to hold a Republican Legislature responsible for the venality of only part of the majority, but in Buchanan's time what would it have thought of a plea of extenuation offered on the ground that at worst but a few subordinates were corrupt, and that it was not only unjust but impolitic to hold an entire party responsible for the misdeeds of a few of its adherents The Tribune calls our attention to the fact that a Democratic Governor in this State once adjourned a Democratic Legislature because of its corruption, and that a Democratic Senate expelled two of its members both Democrats for venality. If these illustrations prove anything it is this, that the Tribune's theory is quite modern, and that in the past at all events it was not deemed safe in the dominant party to attempt to shield the corrupt conduct of its members, as the Tribune is now doing, by seeking to relieve a dominant parry of its just responsibility. We notice with satisfaction, however, that outside of tie Tribune there is general acceptance by the Press of the very important principle for which we are contending. The Republican Times says The Republicans, as a party, are in an overwhelming majority in the Legislature. They have absolute control of both its bvanchcB.

Whatever they determine to be a party principle a plank in the party platform" they can enforce upon their own members and enact into law. They may not be able absolutely to prevent corruption iu individual cases; they cannot render It absolutely certain that no single member of the Legislature, or even of their own party, shall take bribes, and Bell his votes, and perjure his soul, for the benefit of his pocket: but they can, if they choose, prevent bribery and corruption from becoming the supreme and paramount law of the body which they control. Theytan and if they felt it tltey would show at least a decent degree of sensibility to charges, made by responsible men, which if proved against them would consign them to a felon's cell, and brand their name's with a felon's infamy. They can, if they choose, make some effort to cleanse their skirts and save their State from the foul disgrace which the notorions and universal conviction of their corruption is gathering around them. But they don't." It is within the power of the people to show them that they must under the penalty of the loss of their ascendency.

The World takes sides with the Eagle, and thus illustrates the single point at issue Now, of all the great interests of society, honesty In official stations holds the first rank. It is infinitely more important, on the whole and iu the long run, that the administration of public affairs Bhould be pure, than that any possible policy on which different minds can differ, Bhould bo immediately carried ont. But there is no efficient way of enforcing this paramount obligation but by holding that party which controls the government responsible for its purity, and by making it an inflexible rule that the corruption of malfeasance which it might have prevented, and did not, mnst depose it from the government. It is only by thus enlisting party spirit on the side of official morality, and rendering continuance in power impossible to a party whose elected agents corruptly abuse it, that there is any chance of perpetuating free institutions and saving them from blight and rottenness. The theory of sepa rating bucIi matters from party action is of all others the most demoralizing.

Party spirit is the very breath of free institutions. Free government being self gov ernment by the community, there mnst be a concentration of voters or there can be no majority, and those who vote together in the elcctiona are of course a political party. Since parties we must have, there being no possibility of conducting elective governments without them, shall that most potent influence, eagerness for party success, be enlisted on the Bide of public virtue or against it? Settle it as a fixed rule tlutl the party which elects tlie aoxernment shall go out at the next election when the government becomes corrupt, and all tlie strongest pas sions which exert their energy tn politics me oasesi as well as Vie noblest are made the allies of virtue. The patriot who desires great reforms and the self seeker who grasps after the emoluments of office have a common interest in keeping the administration pure. When it is settled that there can be no party success on any other condition, and that every great reform must languish and be set back as soon as the party intrusted with it are found to have put corrupt men in office, then, and not before, official morals will become reasonably pure." With these endorsements ot our position, we dismiss the discussion for the present giving our adversary time to take breath.

An Elevated Railway. Out of the many schemes before the Legis lature for underground and overground rail roads, one escaped the general slaughter, and somehow passed both houses just at the close of the session. This bill provides for an ele vated railroad through the streets on the west side of New York, the line to extend from the Battery to Yonkers, when completed. The track is to be laid on an elevated iron causeway, like Loew's Broadway Bridge, on either side of the street. The cars are to be propelled by steam, but on the chain principle.

A chain or rope runs parallel with the tracks and is worked by engines beneath the sidewalk at half mile intervals. The practicability of this plan is yet to be demonstrated, and a small Bection of the road is first to be constructed and approved before the whole line ib built. This chain principle with stationary engines is not a novelty. It was triod in England on a short line of four miles from London to Blackwall, some twenty years ago, but did not answer expectations the chief difficulty was the liability of the rope or chain to break which, involved annoying delays. Tb.e de rope in regard to the political situation.

It ia rumored that Prussia is disposed to make some concessions to France. The statement that Denmark proposes to remain neutral in case of war seems to occasion neither alarm nor astonishment. New York abounds in precocious criminals. Yesterday a boy cloven years old was held for trial for burglary at a church. George Wilkes has killed two birds with one stone.

WMle exposing Legislative corruption he has shrewdly secured a far reaching and gratuitous advertisement for his Lower California Company. The Journal of Commerce, considering the probabilities of war in Europe, asks if it would not he well to "reprint the peace addresses of Mr. Sumner and others, and to send some of those gentlemen to Europe as apostles of peace." A Paris correspondent tells a tough story about some tough iron at the exhibition. A piece as long and thick as a carriage pole is tied in a knot like a ribbon, without the slightest crack or flaw. Railway bars are likewise bent double without a break.

This is done while the iron is cold. The following is a specimen sentence of a rapturous report in this morning's World of the opening of Palmer's new studio "Of the living of the sex, to whom loveliness is of the inheritance which not even the shadows of this mortal lip fully darken there are in this studio those whom we remember but do not name." The Rent payers' Association of New York is a confessed failure. The landlords have not reduced their terms a dollar in obedience to the de maud of speech making Associates, and the proposition to regulate rents by statute received no favor from tho Legislature or the public. Outside of their own families, children are valued in New York at $750. That was the amount awarded by a jury yesterday to a father whose little daughter had been run over and killed.

An act passed by the last Legislature provides that the chief police office in New York, shall be known as The Central Department of the Metropolitan Police," and the principal office in Brooklyn as "The Office of Inspector of Metropolitan Police." According to the same act the members of the force contribute to the fund for rewards offered for the detection of criminals. Pay deducted for lost time is thus appropriated. The United States Supreme Court heard argument on the Georgia Injunction case. Attorney General Stanbnry Bpokc an hour and a half against the application, and Charles O'Conor two hours in its favor. The latter gentleman had not concluded his argument when his time expired.

The Mississippi case, involving the same questions, will be heard next Friday. Mrs. General Gaines, the persevering and successful litigant, is having built what will bo the handsomest residence in New York. Its location is near the Central Park. Its area is 144 by 100 feet.

Spacious halls, grand staircases, reception room, drawing room, parlors, boudoirs, library, dining room, chambers, dres6ing rooms, picture gallery, theatre, ball room, billiard room, bath moms, kitchens, wine cellar, and everything el6e are complete in modern variety and luxurious appointment. A correspondent of the New York Times' points out an important distinction between the poli cies of Bismarck and Napoleon. The former "lets the nation lead, in appearance, and he follows." "The people in Prussia are allowed to meet and express publicly their desires." On the other hand, "Napoleon keeps all his negotiations to himself, and when an able man like M. de Girardin attempts to give him advice he punishes him by Btopping the sale of Ms paper." The Parisians are "thus informed that they are not capable of thinking for themselves," and "the Government conceals all its transactions." Partisan journalism seems not to be a paying speculation. Mr.

C. A. Dana ex Tribune edi tor and ex Assistant Secretary of War who proposed to build up a Bepublican organ on tho site of Old Tarn, many, will not begin operations until September, and perhaps not then. Carl Shnrz's paper in Detroit is so complete a failure that he has abandoned it. Meantime the independent press, representing the people instead of parties, thrives everywhere.

The Gardiner will case made some progress yesterday. One of the witnesses testified that MIes Julia Tyler, a sprightly young lady of fourteen a good, nice girl," who was laughing all the used toeing the "Bonnie Blue Flag," and other Confederate songs, and called her Uncle David a black buzzard" and one of Mr. Lincoln's hirelings." The parties to this suit seem to have differed decidedly about politics. A paragraph appears in the papers stating that 6,000 photographic and other portraits, enclosed in unclaimed letters, have accumulated at the Dead Letter Office, Washington. A lively imagination may connect six thousand stories or pathos with these picture strays.

What parental or filial grief, what broken love vows, what severed friendships, what matrimonial advertisement disappointments may have grown out of these poBtal shortcomings we shall never know. It is said the portraits will be sold. Such a disposition of them seems as unjustifiable as would be the sale of dead letters. Private right is as Btrong in the one case as in the other. "If the pictures cannot be preserved for their owners they should be destroyed.

If a man who records events be thereby specially qualified to anticipate them, and if a historian must be regarded as also a prophet, a recent speech of Sir Archibald Allison deserves attention. Ho says "a dreadful war is about to commence," and it will end "in the undisputed supremacy of one Power." He provokingly stops here, and omits to name the fortunate Power. The problem which puzzles everybody he permits to lie, in his own striking in the womb of time." He believes England will ultimately be involved in the struggle; that "the Americans are only waiting for 'England's difficulty 'to let their standard be seen in London." Allison has a respect for our Navy almost suggestive of alarm at its magnitude, and apprehends a Russian American alliance. The dispute between the Common Council and the Police Commissioners, develops the following facts about the number of licenses annually issued in New York: Theatres and places of amusement. keepers of boarding honses for emigrants, 200 junk shop keepers, G22 junk boatmen, 304; junk cartmen, 361; pawnbrokers, 219; peddlers, dealers in Becond hand articles, 536; keepers of intelligence offices, 100; hack drivers, hack owners, 300; cart owners, 2,000 cart drivers, 1,221 public porters, 244 omMbus owners, 30; omnibus drivers, 626 car drivers, 1,886 car owners, 100 Auctioneers, 200.

Total, 14,231. The Church Union persistently urges the secular press to notice it. Its originality and enterprise may be briefly indicated. Its originality consists in republisMng the familiar Latin hymn "Dies Ira," and in reporting the "Fulton street Prayer Meeting" its staple topic for several months. Its promised enterprise is the early publication of sermons by Mr.

Bcecher. As that gentleman has publicly stated that Ms discourses will hereafter appear only in the Mettodist and Examiner, it is not clear ho the Church Union can honestly make good its promise. Its present enterprise is apparent on the editorial page. The prominent articles axe "Follow Christ" and "Modern Generals "the latter being a pnff of a Life Insurance Company that advertises in the Churcli Union. The blending of piety and puffery is doubtless profitable.

Americans are acquiring in foreign countries a reputation for lavish expenditure wMch sometimes operates to our disadvantage. A correspondent in Naples writes as follows "It is very unfortunate to speak the English language. Answering a question of an American yesterday at dinner cost me a franc, which was moderate. I had ordered my dinner in French, and, as tho waiter was not very well versed in that language, he took me for a Frenchman but the English language was the signal for an advance In my bill. A few days ago, I went into a cameo shop and asked In French the prico of a miniature, and was told thirty francs.

I went ten paces, further and asked In English the price of the same thing, and was told sixty franca. My gentle reader all readers are gentle if you ever expect to visit this continent; begin to Btady French and German now and when the shores of America fade In the distance, speak your last word of English till your return."
