THE DATLYPKESS. , lllfNH V UKEU c C04 aprrosB a .aoraivroa.. KATURDAY.- - JtTNB 33 The Office of Coroner Abuses of Which it in the Occasion. the lake of its emoluments, should, on baring obtained it, M willing to msle those emolu ments as extensive as possible. .. Nor, when their efforts are confined to faithful dis charge of their official duties, and a rigid col lection of the fees that appertain to the same, is there aught in this of whick to Complain. But there is a tendency especially when the public is the party to pay not only to in crease unnecessarily the amount of nominal eerrire, but to swell the bills of costs charged for the same, until abuses, in themselves to--tally Indefensible, by the force of custom acquire the appearance of rights, and what, tt first was no better than pilfering, comes to be recognized as possessing all the qualities of an absolute estate. At present we apply these remarks to the office of CoaoKM, and to what are called its duties, as they are discharged in "cities of the firet-clMs"' in the State of Ohio, to wit: in Cincinnati. Whether the present Coroner is worse or bottef than his predecessors, we want the light to be able to affirm with the proper certainty. Whether the abuses of the law or the reason of the office are greater here than in other first-class cities, we do not know; probably not. We, therefore, intend merely to speak of things and practices as tltey are; showing how they are wrong, and lead to that which it is difficult to distinguish from acts of public robbing. ' ; The duty of the Coroner is to inquire into the causes of unnatural death, where there Is reason to suspect the agency of criminal de sign, or, as it is expressed in a standard work upon American law, "to hold Inquests over dead bodies, where there is reason to suspect violence, and to procure the verdict of a jury upon the cause of the death;" or, as stated by an eminent English writer, to inquire "when any person is slain, or dies suddenly, or in prison, concerning the manner of his death." The first abuse to be noticed is the increas ing, unnecessarily, the number of inquests. No sooner is a Coroner elected than he is surrounded by a band of professional jurors and witnesses, each of whom finds it for his interest to hunt up cases, and to place them in such light as to induce the officer to think there is reason to make them the subjects of inquiry. The effect of this practise js to pro mote inquests in cases when the cause of death is perfectly palpable, and where there is no room for suspicion of foul play of any kind. A man drops down in the street from sun-stroke, in the sight of a dozen others. Nobody doubts how he came to his end; yet iu comes the Coroner, a jury is impanneled, witnesses are sworn, testimony' taken, and a formal verdict, "died by the visitation of God," or " from some cause to the jury un known," puts the public in possession of rather a small sum of intelligence, at the cost of a considerable sum of money. A man is kicked on the knee by a horse, Inflammation supervenes, he is carried to the hospital, and in a few days is carried off. The cause of death is entirely visible ; yet the fact that it has occurred reaches the ears of the Coroner there is an inquest, a poet-mortem examina tion, witnesses, verdict, and costs to add to the burdens that fall upon the people. How large a ratio of the inquests holden in this city are totally and palpably unnecessary, it . is not easy to learn; but it is safe so we am informed hjr those who have given attention to the matter to sy that a majority are of this character. - The next abuse is the various devices re sorted by the surroundings of the Coroner, to swell the cost of each inquisition. To give an instance of this, we may refer to the frequency of poet-mortem examinations. Cor oners have their friends of the surgical pro fession ; and, however apparent may be the cause of the demise, autopig comes in as a matter of course, and the bill follows, to be met out of the treasury. For example, in the case of the late lamented Prof. Crawley, there was no room to question the meant by which the deceased was deprived of life. There it was upon the surface a fatul stab, and death almost instantly ensuing; yet, in comes the doctor, produces bis instruments, cuts open the victim, gets his name into the papers, is suspected of being a prodigy of wisdom for finding what every body knew was there, and puts a handsome aggregate of dollars in his pocket, . Wa have been fur nished with the outlines of a good many cases, illustrative of the foregoing remarks, but have the space only to refer to them in this general manner. ' There is another furm of abuse, in that Coroners not uu frequently assume to pro nounce upon the guilt or innocence of sus pected parties. This, at present, is not within the province of the Coroner; and when he or his juries take it upon themselves to condemn or acquit, or even to accuse or excuse, they do that which is entirely beyond any powers with which they are legally invested. It is a question worthy of consideration, whether, under our better state of society, and mure perfect forms of legal proceeding, the ottioe of Coroner might not be safely dis pensed with, as it has been ia several States of the Union. But, that, at any rate, the Coroner in office should keep within the line of his duty, and take a conscientious view of the case before he burdens the public with the cost of an inquest, is what nobody, will be incliued to dispute. , , Ghastly Entertainment for the Japanese The Bennett Matinee to the Embassy. Mr. and Mrs. James Gordon Bennett, of New York and the notorious Herald, gave matinee to the Japanese Embassy on Thurs day, at their villa on the Hudson.;' ; Poor Japanese I that must have been the worst of inflictions h sort of. rxperimentum crutit to determine' how aiuch life they had left in them. Jf they could endure the Bea nett matinee they could suffer any thing, and . give themselves renewed confidence that thef will not leave .their ' persecuted bones to crumble on oar soil.', ' '' , ,. ,.,,.. ,..., It is mentioned as the best proof of the nat ural physical vigor and stamina of the Jap anese that all of them survived tba Bennett matin. But then it was 0" fault of the Satanic Scot that they did not die like Adonis of s bore. Doubtless bs did Lis utmost to elating them by ;the display aod - infliction of hie pretentious hospitality.- He. '' manifested is ttsunt malignity under J the guise ft courtesy, and endeavored with his fleetest strength to poken the littlo peace be Japanese might have bod ia New York, aad fill their prolific fancy for all future time with ghastly specters of a foreign proletary svekiug to play the part of an American gen-Ueieau,- - 1 ' : ' " City Railways Thier Usefulness The Policy Toward them. We commence what we have to say Upon the subject of street railways, with the in dispensable proposition, that they are of great public convenience. . They are of posi tive benefit to the people benefit enjoyed at as little expense of Incidental inconveni ence as any of equal magnitude that can be named." tf they occupy the streets, they do so less in proportion to their usefulness than coachee, buggies, wagons, or any other vehi cles by which passengers hnve been transi ported. They are rapidly growing In public favor, and as much as any other enterprise should be a source of profit to those who have invested money in their construction. It has been the fate of street railways, wherever they have been introduced, to meet with opposition from narrow and frequently fanatical prejudice, and to overcome it. There is no instance in which they have been overcome, nor any in which, when once established, they have not increased In extent, and grown in the popular favor. That such will be the case here, there is no room to doubt. The question when the petty war fare carried on against their, usefulness and their progress will cease, is one only of time. Time will dispose of the opposition, and of the opposers. People who are so short sighted &s to put themselves in antagonism to valuable improvemenTs are usually short lived, politically. There is no more reason why the railway companies should be burdened with a Secial tax upon their passengers than why a minis ter should be taxed upon his hearers, a law yer upon his clients, a doctor upon his pa tients, or a manufacturer or merchant upon bis customers; and there is no rule applied to the one that may not with equal justice be applied to the other. A tax of twenty per cent, upon the gross receipts of any concern, in addition to the ordinary high rates upon property, is enormous. No business in the world can long bear such an Imposition; and if there is any rule which denies to govern ment the power to destroy whom it pleases by unequal and oppressive taxation as we believe there is it is difficult to imagine par ties better entitled to its benefits than the railway companies of this city. The question of the abolition of the per capita, therefore, is one which has merits of its own, disconnected with any question of the reduction of fare as a consideration for the release. The per capita should be abol ished at any rate; simply because it is unjust. The companies should put their fares at the lowest point consistent with the largest rev enue, and should be left free to adjust their policy for that purpose, according to their own ideas. In this way, and in this way alone, public justice and the interests of all parties can be best secured; and to this, when prejudice has hod its day, and folly has said its say, and demagognes and logics have exhausted their little wisdom and their little expedients, will it come at last. Not Abram But Abraham. name is not Abram, but Abraham. This is a matter of course. When God appeared to Abram, the Chaldee, and announced to him that He was about to make him the father of a great people, He told him that henceforth his name should be Abraham, which means the father of a great multitude. The terms which signify father and ruler are synony mous in most countries; therefore the proph esy relate to one as much as the other. When Mr. Lincoln became a possible Presi dent, his name should be called Abraham, even if it was Abram before, for the promise seems about to be fulfilled again in him. The Japanese at the New York Academy of Music The Embassy Nearly Involved in a Fight. Thursday's New York Tribune has the fol lowing: At one o'clock, it was announced that the carriages were ready to convey the Japanese to the Academic Matinee, whereupon it be came a question wno or trie seventy would (TO, and finally whether all of them would not insist on staying at home. For, as one of the Committee in charm astutely re marked, " they're a very sing'ler people, irt- asmucn as wey line to nave tneir own way, and sometimes become fractious when we tell 'em they've got to go where they don't want to I" The three Embassadors had refused to attend the opera from the start ; at the last moment the officers also declined the invita tion for themselves and their attendants. The Committee urged the point. The Jap anese, with suavity, begged to be excused. The Committee insisted. The Japanese firmly declined. The Committee assumed an imperative tone. Whereupon the Japanese were at first frichtened, then wounded, lastly enraged ; and one of the officers rushed out 01 ue (jomnultee-room, and adjured Mr, Leland to procure him a nistol forthwith. if the Committee persist in this style of imng, we snail soon near or a case or han-kart at the Metropolitan Hotel. Finally, terms were made, and the gentle Japanese, with their national politeness, concluded to yield I. o nn: Tk. e . 1. r. .:ik X . . ifiii. iuui,u, u 1 1 11, gitu, wju sev enth officers, three or four others hieh in rank, "Tommy," and .several attendants, equipped themselves, were pulled, rather fcunu occuDipameu, u me aoor, were snorea. rather than assisted, into the carriages, and were whirled away to the Academy, at which they arrived soon after the appointed hour. With Captain Lee and Interpreter Portmon, the Japanese took their places in the pro scenium boxes which were chosen because they added so much to the illusions of the scene. There they could see the prompter and all the back-stair lyrics of the place scene-shifters, and many others in citizens' dress which accorded superbly with the Ro man costumes, triumphal arch, and the theo logical robes. The Japanese never beheld Amodio before, and surely they were pro foundly impressed with his bearing and voice. maaame iioriegi, wno is a sumptuous woman, made a direct appeal to their hearts. They thought, doubtless, of Jarjonese ira.rdp.iia. flowers, and birds, and the saccharine de lirium of love. They seemed to acknowledge that she ought not to bave been sacrificed, and to entertain a very poor opinion of the nuuwu pagans woo put Her to aeatn. Dcath or as Amaicis AacHBisHov.

Much confusion ensued-ttany Senators being on the floor at once, making separate motions. Mr. MaRon moved to proceed to Executive session. Uebeueved that unless this day was spent in Executive business, the Senate would be detained here next week. Messrs. Ynlee and Trumbull thought that legislative business should be finished before the Executive business, as the latter could go over till the next session. The motion to go into Executive session was defeated, there being but one vote in the affirmative.

On motion of Mr. Bnrch, the unfinished business was transferred to the next session. The House passed the resolution, 86 to 91 reported on Wednesday by Mr. Gurley, from the Committee on Printing, as amended by Mr. Burnet. Mr. Albv. from the Committee on Post- offices, reported a bill authorizing a postal contract from New Orleans or Mobile around the Mexican Gulf, touching at twelve norts. according to Mr. Butterneld's proposition.

Mr. Miles said it was almost morally cer tain that the Senate would not agree to the House amenameni. Mr. Woshburne had every reason to expect a favorable result. His motion was agreed to ayes 85, nays not counted. The boan ana t reasury tiiii was possea 88 to 17. Several private bills were passed. Adjourned. THE BALTIMORE CONVENTION. New York Decided for Douglas—A Row in the New York Delegation—The Minority Report Rejected—The Douglas Delegates Louisiana and those from Arkansas Admitted. Baltimore, June 2110 P. M. After a very warm discussion, the New York delc gatio'n have agreed to support the whole majority report, except, probably, in the case of Georgia, on which they may vote to admit the whole original delegation. This settles the question, and to-morrow, if the seceding delegations refuse to take seats, which is probable( the whole vote of the State will be cast by tne contestants, and Douglas be nom inated by a two-thirds vote. New York follows suit in the way of per sonal difficulties. A quarrel has arisen be tween John Clancy and Wm. H. Ludlow, the former charging the latter with treacn erv to Douelas. Some warm personal re marks passed, for which Clancy holds Lud low personally responsmie, and sends mm to-night a warlike message. Should this not be responded to, a personal collision is talked ot Dy Ulancy. Baltimore, June 22. The Chair stated that the first business was on ordering the main question on the resolutions of the Cre dential Committee first Mr. Gittings's minority report. . The resolutions were read In order. First, the majority report, then the minority report, by Mr. Stevens, of Oregon, and then Mr. Git tings's resolution. The Chair decided that Mr. Crum,as Chair man of the Committee, had the right to make the closing address, although the main ques tion bad been ordered, and Mr. Crum addressed the Convention. The minority report was rejected 100X to 150. The question was taken separately on the resolutions in the majority report. That admitting Mississippi was adopted 250 against The second resolution, admitting the Lou isiana-Sonle delogates, was adopted 153 against 97; third resolution, admitting Ar kansas, adopted 182 against 09.

Mr. Cochran then rapidly nut the motion for a recess tiU seven o'clock, which was car ried, amid the consternation of the North western men and the reviving hopes of the EVENING SESSION. Convention reassembled at seven with a crowded audience. The interest was higbtened by the prevalence of a report that Mr. Douglas had telegraphed to withdraw his name. Mr. Cessna moved the previous Question on the motion pending, which was to reconsider the vote by which the Convention rejectee. the minority report. The motion to reconsider the vote was lost eyes 103; nays 149 New York voting in tne negative. The motion to reconsider tne resolutions adopted at the morning session, was laid on the table. Mr. Cessna moved to proceed to ballot, and called the previous question. (Several motions were made to adjourn sins die, but were afterward withdrawn. Mr. KnsseU ot Virginia rose to make an announcement, amid great excitement. He said it was not consistent with their convic tions of duty to participate longer in the deliberations of the Convention, and they would bid the Convention a respectful adieu. Twenty-four delegates from Virginia then withdrew, six still remaining. North Carolina. Tennessee. Maryland. Cal ifornia and Oregon also withdrew. - The Convention adjourned without ballot ing. . From New York. Niw York, June 22. The Herald, Journal of Commerce, ic, contain editorials strongly condemnatory of the Executive Committee of the American Telegraph Company for their extortionary demands and threats against the press. They urge stockholders to come forward at their meeting next Thurs day, and rescue their property from the cer tain destruction ot tne madmen wno now control it. Mr. O. S. Wood, one of the oldest and most accomplished telegraphers in the country, and who, for several years, has hod the man agement of the Canadian lines, went to Eu rope on business connected with his profes sion. During his sojourn in London Mr. W. made many inquiries touching the prospects of the newly projected telegraph-cable line between England and America, by the way of Greenland and Iceland. The result of these inquiries he sums up ia the subjoined paragraph, which is extracted from one of his letters to bis friends in tnis country: "They (the new company) will accomplisn nothing except making surveys. We shall never see turope ana America connected oy telegraph via Greenland and Iceland. The more inquiries I make the better I am satis fied that we will soon have a direct line working successfully across the Atlantic, and I hope you may live many years after it is accompfished." Mr. Wood strongly deprecates thedimcultv which bos recently sprung up between the press of the United States and the American Telegraph Company, in consequence of the extraordinary measures of the latter, and predicts that the inevitable result of the quarrel will be the establishment of rival lines throughout the country.
