Kvidctitly tho coininitto?' thought no sober

hilarious charge of forgery and fraud. So
they asked him frankly if he was not Intoxi?
cated at that very moment, and slmwed so
little respect for his denial ??s to take

Henry I*. Pniroy treads dose upon the mighty
li?'?-ls of Win. K. Miirlin. No sooner has the
one formally abandoned the demonstration of
his preat theory that the world owes tiny
laborers a living? than Mr. E**Urroy, undismayed
by t!ii*? failure, lays down the broad principle
that ih?> ?iiv must pay tin? campaign expenses
of Aldermen 1?> a comfortable addition t<? tii?>ii
solar.ee. He says sabstantially thai the heads
of departments have an nndne advantage over
the members of the local legislature, because,
gcttins their offices by appointment, they need
not sjx'ii'l large sums in campaign expenses, <?r,
as Alderman Pniroy wnuhl never have
said it, to buy up "the hoys." This was
a beautiful sentiment indeed to air in a con?
ference of municipal teformem, gathered to
consider means of lightening the burdens
i?. the city?not ways of adding to the per?
quisites of ward politicians. Nevertheless,
though Alderman I'uriov disturbed tin- meet?
ing, he was not the only hopeless feature aboid
it. It was for more discouraging to find the
headaofail the departments protesting in turn
that n? reduction could 1??* made in their ex?
penses without Berkraa detriment t?> tin- public
service, and thus reducing tin- eonferauee t?
an absurdity. Jnilc???! there seemed to he so
little of the ?spirit of concession in the gather
ing, ami so little comprehension of its objecta
or desire to comprehend them, that Mr. Mor
rissey's trite declaration that what i? wanted
is "a ?proper charter, drawn by the citizens of
"New-York for their city, which cannot be
"fooled with or patched upon, rear after year,
"by people outside <?f it," Rounds like states?

FLORID I.
It isa just decision. Florida rightfully voted
for Hayes, and if it were possible to eliminate
all the trickery, fraud, ami force on ?'a? h side,
we have no doubt it would appear that the four
electors who voted for Hayes w? re duly chosen
by the majority of lawful voters. Bui such an
Investigation is now a physical impossibility.
The highest evidence that can now be ob?
tained in regard to the actual vote of the
?State is the decision of its lawfully eonstitntcd
Returning Board. That evidence the Tribunal
has determined to accept as the highest, ami
its decision will undoubtedly he approved liy
the groat multitude nf citiaens, Democrats and
Republicana, who prayed for the establish?
ment <?f such ?t tribunal t:? r?solve their doubts.
In some quarters it is thought veiy unfortu?
nate that this decision was reached by a vote
acrarding with the partisan preferences of the
members. It it? unfortunate, we grant, that
not a single Democrat of the House, of the
Sentie, or of 1 In ?Supreme (' mil was able to
appreciate the force ?>t the argument sub?
mit*,.-<l by Messrs. Bvarts, ?Matthews, ami their
nssoeiates. Nevertheless, we eannoi profess
surprise. When ?this hill was pending, Tin
I'liimxi: opposed ii on tin- very ground that
members selected after a case liad been made
up, would surely !)?? chosen by the Demo?
crats 1?e.-ail-?- of tlnii- known opinions on tie*
disputed questions, and that the Republicans
?would virtually surrender the whole case if
they ?lid not balance the Tribunal by the
selection of men whose opinions were also
known. Then the is.-nc would ?urn upon the
selection of the fifth Judge. Human nature
being what it i?, nothing better was to l?c ex?
pected. The result proves thai the ?Democrats
did choose men whose opinions wan not
shaken in tho slightest degree by all the
strong arguments submitted in this instance.
Mon- than one of them has been consid?
ered unusually fair ami honorable, hut
such i*? th?* force of party feeling that even
those members adhered to the extreme Demo?
cratic theory aa to the right of Congress to
set aside the decision of a State, Democratic
traditions went f??r nothing. The palpable un?
fairness of accepting un illegal partisan de?
claration made after electors liad voted, as
better than a ?legal decision math: at the time
required by law, und by tlit- board empowered
l?y law to decide, ?lid not move one of them.
It can hardly be deemed strange that the __??
publican members voted with equal unanimity
tin- other wily. The weight of argument was
with them j the ?spirit supposed to reside in
th?- odd man, to which this iiieasur?- solemnly
appealed, was with them. Hut it is now plain
that if the Republicans had chosen a tingle
member of Democratic leanings in reaped to
th?* question at issue, they would have Mr
rendered lour electoral rotes to which they
ai?- rightfully entitled.
The country now ha? a ii;.ht to demand
from th? Democrats, whose threats and pro?
tects eansed the acceptance ?>f this measure,
and whose votas made it a law, prompt ami ?
unquestioning submissiou to the decision.
Tiny were not willing to trust tho ollicer
charged '?F th** ?TVinstitPtinn with tho duty of
eo?nting the votes, and nt their demand their
claims were referred to the unknown .ludir?.
They lmve no riRlit to talk any longer of
fraud ; no ?right to pretend that, they havo
been WfOHgod ; in Hit? preparation of the caso
they have ha?l every advantage? and y?t the
derision of the Tribunal to which they ni-*ri")'?l
to Hiibniit the ease is n?_rainst them. As to
Florida, at least, the time has eoiuo for them
to arqui'-sre in decent silence.
Bpeenlatlou is rif? as (a the effect of the orders
of the Tribunal upon other ?piesiions pending.
As to Oregon, at bust, if it hod bean the design
of the Tribunal to leave Democratic claims
without the shallow of support, the order could
hardly have been stronger. The certiinate <?f
the Governor shall hohl, it is declared, when
based upon ami in accordance with the tiding
of the body empowered hy the stut?? to ascer?
tain th?? result. In Oregon that ?buy devolves
Upon the Secretary of Sl:it?-, ami the Governor's
certificate is not baaed upon, ?and does notevea
pretend to accord with, the finding of that ??ni?
cer. Th?* questions ?remaining upon which
Democrats build h<>??es are three i Was the
Louisiana Returning Board a constitutioii.il
body ? Was it organised aeeord?g to law?
Wei?* the Republican electors eligiblel The
constitutionality of **n board will hardly
be disputed with success, since a State is
wholly unrestrained in its manner of eboosing
electors. The claim that the board was author?
ised to canvass votes for other State otlicers
but not for ?-lectors, if ?sustained? woubl Is? ?it
most ?i thin technicality, not aflTecting tin*
rightfnlneas of the finding or the validity .of
th? certificate of the Qovernor. The elaim
that th?' board acted illegally in not filling u
vacancy has in it more of substance, bul oren
this, if SUStahiedi would not prove that the
Governor*!* certificate was mid. If we rightly
understand tie- order ol the Tribunal in the
Flomla ease, it opens the way for declaring
tii.it a Governor*1 ? certificate may Im* h?-bl void
when it is contrary to the finding of Btate
canvassers, but does not imply that th?; cer?
tificate is void merely because those canvassers
neglected requirements of law. They may bave
erred in many things, and yet their finding may
have been correct, and the l?overnor may have
been legally bound to ?.rive certificates to the
same men who wen: by the board declared
elected. As t?> the questions of eligibility, of
which several an* rained, ii is not quit?* dear
thai a vote is void b "Cause east by a p? rson
afterward discovered to have been Ineligible,
ami it is altogether clear that the admission of
a rote so casi would only ?jive effect to the
popular will, if, th?? ineligibiiity being un?
known, the elector had been dnly chosen. But
?i i? not yet time for either ?party to count
with absolute confidence on the result. There
ore oew questions to be raised, ami there are
independent Republican members arho may yet
reach convictions different from those of il.en

The Connecticut Legislature has lately voted

Upon th ii dnlii?, fa'?*.?? oath that lliev have

son ci>iivi'-i?-d of having taken such oath
.nUelj liable to th?? pains and penalties of per

of money in election?? was too indutcriiuioate

v,is urged that there were legitimate ami
proper uses to which mOney might *o> applied
in conducting election*?-, ami that the proposed
law recognised no ili-dinction between these
legitimate uses ??ml open bribery, it was upon
this ground chiefij that the amendment was
rejected.
I; strike* ns then' is ?i much ?broaderground
of opposition to thi? and all similar enactment?,
.o wit, thai it would be impossible to enforee
it, a!"! so being habitually either evaded or
defied, would work great barm to public
morals by familiarizing the minds of people
with notations of law. Inoperative laws are
of all phases of excessive legislation the most
mischievous. They dissipate ami destroy thai
proper and becoming reverence for the written
law which is the < -tii'ial ? n?lit iuti of all well?
ordered communities and ihe hest sign of proa*
perity in a state. The attempt to prevent
bribery, and so purity the ballot m some
measure by compelling members of tin- Legis?
lature to make oath that they have not Used
money to secure an el?t*ction, is an experiment
which it may not be geperallj known is now
on tii.il in lin-, Btate, At the meeting of ?he
Legislature in January, 1st*?, an oath similar
?n tenu?, it not in the precine language to that
proposed in Connecticut, w??s lor the first time
administered to members of the -few-York
Legislature. Of tho??? who knew of the exist?
ence ol the requirement ?ii the tun? of the
election, it is safe to say that not one
wasdeterred by it from using money as they
ami almost all politicians had been in the
habit ol using ii, legitimately or corruptly as
the cam might be, without scruple of eon
science or ?regard for ?consequences. Twenty
four hours before the meeting of the Legisla
tin. th.re was a little playful discMsion of
the subject amoiii.' members, but that was all.
A f?w availed themselves of the privilege re?
served in the law for the ?Legislature ol thai
m n and declined to subscribe to the now oath,
i iking ihe old one Instead. Hal most of thrill
stood up ??ml took it like men, meantime
thrusting their tongues in their cheeks and
winking at each other as though it was an
excellent Joke. The members ??f the Renate ami
Assembly that came in ia?t v. ?ir, and of the
present ?Anoembly, took it without hesitation
or question. Bui ?!?? ? any one suppoos the
necessity for taking such an oath deterred any
of them from Ming money?juat as they have
been in the liabit of Osillg it t Not in the
least. The practical cHect wan only to add
perjury to bribery : nothing more nor less.
The Connecticut pc??pl?- certain!) have ?.?ml
reason for desiring some remedy for the evils
of bribery and th?: corrupt use of money in
??lections. If the story of their St.it?> elections
for the past ten or lift? ? n year-? were not fkumr
dent proof of that, there i? .Mr. Bornai in
th?- Senate; and we need go no further. It in
not unnatural that ?uuiist roten should be
groping about for some way of SSOaps from
l.i.? methods ibit the plan pr?tpos?<l would
never have answered the pOpOOO, and the
L?gislature was win* in rejecting it. The ?*x
peiiment ih a failure in New-York, ami will In?
wheu'ver it is tried. No candidate is hindered
fioiii msing iinuie-, to -*ci ?no lib* own election
by tho requirement of the onth. No oil

thi ill.??I week of January. On the arbole, the
trade of New-York appearafrom tins?- returns
to have been quite as well sustained aa thai
of any other important city, and much better
than that of Philadelphia, It appears,' also,
that during the week ending Peb. 3, for
a bicb the retiu us are given bom only ten cities,
New-York shows a gain of nearly 'A per cent,
New-Orleans about 7 _ per cent, Louisville
about 'Yu per cent, and BoatOU about 10 per
?i ut. while Philadelphia shows a loss of nearly
h; "iercent, Chicago 5*t percent, Baltimore
4-_ per eenl, ami St. Louis ?_"._. per cent. The
comparison shown that when all tinento of
business are included?wholesale, retail, legiti?

The attention recently directed t<? the affairs
of Princeton College has not been thrown
away. The UUstllOl held a mooting last Thurs?
day and took action which shows that they
have nut boon unmindful of tin? criticism so
freely expended upon the institution, and that
they pui pose meet nig it in the only effectual
way. TWO trustees weit? chosen to till va?
cancies in the board, and three new profes-ois
WO!? elected, and the selections WCT0 all ex?
cellent. One (?I the new trustees is Mr. William
Ubby, the managing man in the til?n of A. T.
Stewart ?t Co. Mr. Lihby is un elder in l>r. Johl
Hall's church, and 1i._h been a gl*MMMI bene?
factor of Princeton in ways which he has
never allowed tin? public to know. Tho other
trust*?? is Mr. Chocleo Elmer, a rich land"
owner and business man of Bridgetna, N. J.

pointment of Prof. Charles A. Young to tho
chair of Astronomy in pluce of Prof. Alex?

creation of an adjunct piotcs-.iii-.iiip of < i reek
to be tilled by Prof. H S. Orris ; and tbe alec
ti?in of Prof. A. (*. Rockwood to the chair of
Applied Mathematics.
Prof. Yniing, now of D.irtnionth, is an as?
tronomer of world-wide reputation, and his
recent investigations and experiment? in the
r? ?solution of ??une of the line? of the ?olar
?liectnim and the applhation of the ?peetrum
to the computation of the velocity of the sun
have attracted great att?:iition both here and
in Europe. Indeed in the department of spec
troscopy and ?olar physic? he is one of the liest
half-dozen authorities now living. He is a
relative of Prof. Aikin of the Piimeton Theo
logicnl Heuiinary. Prof. Orri? is a graduate? of
Princeton, about 88 year? of age, anil an enthu?
siast in classical studies. He has spent four
yean in dusiieo] study in Germany, and be?
fore entering iijmiu hi? new duties ho
will make a visit of a few months
to Gree??*.. Ho was once Latin tutor
at Princeton, ?ml the students petitioned
unanimously for hi? appointment to the pro
ffeeotahlfl at the tun?: that chair was given to
Prof. Packard. Ho is now professor at Mari?
etta College. Prof. Boekwood is now ??nu*a_*?'d
at Rutgers, and before going there was pro
feasor at Boardoin? He i? a graduate of Yale,
and though young h?> is u I ready highly e?
t? fin? d for ability. Princeton is to be con?
gratulated, and the friends of the college have
good reason to be satisfied with the action of
the trustees, whither they look at the fame
of one of the new prnfes.sors or the promise of
the others. _._ _
