THE TRIBUIVE. MONDAY MORNING, MAY 26, IS45. thk Whig Members of the late legislature of our Slate, giving an account ol their course and of the doings of the Legislature through its late Session, appears on our First Page. It will be found worthy of the profound attention, mot of the citizens of New- York only, but of the friends of Republican Freedom and Sound Policy every where. Its directness, its liberality and mo? deration, its frankness and manly sincerity, will commend it to the hearts of the candid and intelli ftnt.

It contains not one appeul to popular preju? dice or passion, not one allusion to Party aims or interests, save as they directly subserve or threaten the Public Good. As a concise exposition and his? tory of our State Policy for the last ten years, and a foreshadowing of the issues and events of yearn to come, it will be valued by every impartial reader. Whoever desires to know thk trcth resecting the allsg esl State embarrassment and apprehended "Forty Million Debt," will find it here. Whoever would know on what grounds and with what pur? poses the great mass of the Whigs of our State support the call of a Constitutional Convention may here be satisfied. Whoever would judge of thr Political Aspects of our time has here a favorable point of observation.

For the first time Mnce 1841, Whig Legisla? tive Address ia more numerously signed than that of the opposite parly. The names of all the Whig Members are appended to it, for al! of taem unite in the views which it sets forth, (two oniy having partially differed at an earlier period with regard to a Convention;) while a minority of the Locc Focos appear as signers of the Address issued on that side, and adopting Gov. Wright's Veto as the touchstone of political orthodoxy. Who can fail to discern the auspicious signs of the times? Constitutional Reform. The Albany Alias sees fit to give a diplomatic and lawyer-like answer to the inquiries in which we addressed it some days since on the subject of Constitutional Amendments.

The gist of its reply is that it hasn't bestowed much thought on the points indicated in our questions and is not prepared to express opinions upon them, regarding them ol little course the Atlas may think this way; but it doesseem to us that questions affecting the Equality of Rights under our form of government are thefirst in order, It may be well io tie up the Legislature ever so carefully and remodel the Judi? ciary ever so thoroughly, but before this is accom? plished we must inquire 1W10 shall rightfully tlo it. Those wrongfully excluded from suffrage may be few and feeble, and the clans proscribed from hold? ing office may be quite indifferent in the premises; bin we have yet to learn that grave questions ol Principle and Right are thus to be whistled down the wind. What we seek first is a government based on the true idea of a Republic and framed in perfect consistency therewith. We regret the Atlas considers questions of policy, and of doubilul policy, paramount to essential Principles. Uut we ore given to understand that the Barnburners' choose to stand wholly by themselves, and to pur? sue their own special objects in their own manner.

Very well: this information we sought; and. though given raiher ungraciously, we receive it with grateful acknowledgements. The Atlas thinks the restriction of ihe power ol the Legislature to contract Debts and Judicial Re? form the great ends to be secured through a Con? vention. Our views are different, hut as ihe Alia." does not ask our opinions on its projects, we will only say that our anxiety for Judicial Reform is not more fully and frequenlly expressed only be? cause our acquaintance with Law and Judicature is limited. If, as we suppose, the conductors of the Atlas are lawyers, they are or should be quali tied Jo treat these topics more decisively and fully.

Our City Government Our citizens have now an opportunity oi assuring themselves of the absolute impossibility of having tne City weilgoverueu uuuer me sway Ol tile usual party influences and party tactics. The Mayor has nominated Justice Robert Taylor for Chief ol the New Police, and the Board of Aldermen unanimously confirmed the selection. Every body, apart from the little cliques of Ward fuglemen and office expectants, agrees in recognizing Mr. Tay? lor as eminently qualified by ability, experience and integrity for the post. But he is not a member of the and the minor wire-workers arc loo short? sighted to see how much more the party would gam in public regard and confidence by such an appoint? ment than it could make by any possible partisan direction of the office.

The consequence is a gen? eral ferment in every Ward groggary aid back? stairs conclave, which ensures ihe non-concurrence of ihe Board of Assistants and ihe speedy backing out of the Mayor and Aldermen. We rejoice that all this has happened, or is to happen. The sooner the People are thoroughly satisfied that a Politico! Party cannot rule the City with a view to City interests and needs, the better. It can require but few more experiments to pui beyond cavil. Canal Policy.
