There were thon iIfteen wards, In 1827 It took piling to seo that “ Juckeun" men were elected to the Lane nies. Meanwhile, in 1831, largely through Its ald, tho systein of gdiverntug the Stute by ollicers ap- poluted by the Governor nnd Caunell was super seded, and n new Constitution gave to the peos Ble the privilege of electing some 7,000 additional inte ollicers.. Among those oftleers were tho Mnyor and Jtidges of tho City of New York, who bad proviously been Sppented. The qualifications for voting, pripr to 1804, bad conilned the right to vote to frecholders, In thot yenr it was extended to houscholders rent- Inga tenement of tho yatue of $25. Tn 18 It was further extended to all ndult mule eltizens, ‘These two extensions, together with the natural Increase, ratsed the number of yotors from 1,200 {nn 1801 to 20,000 In 183th, ‘THIS TRANSVER OF POLITICAL POWER from the class who bad proviously been regard- edus “the best,” viz. the property-holders, to those who had always ‘been deemed the worst, viz, the non-property-holdera, was the carrying out of the democratic duvtrine against the aris- tocratic,—of governinent by the wholo instead of by the few. Thoso who hailed this chanye na aRrent and manifest gain did not, perhaps, per- celve that thirty yeara of “government by the whole" would increase tho rate of taxation from $2.50 to $10 per. capita, and the total expense of, foxerning and improving tho city, Inelud- ing special _nsgossments, 1 yeur to 10,000.00, an incrense | of elghty-fold, white tho population itself would {nerense oxtly from 289,000 to 1,000,000, or flvo- fold, ‘The pollticians of the period seemed to pa that tho advintuges which would arise from being governed by 110,000 voters, of whoin only 15,0u0 would pay the exponses nad wastes of government, were unilmited, A fow of tho stiteymen like Webster and Cathoun thought otherwise,‘ Who would be safe In any: comtnunity,” says Webster in his Pittsburg speoch, "where political power 1s In tho hands of the many and property fn the hands of 2 few?" Calhoun, also, was maturing, in his! Dis- quisition on Government,” a theory that all gov. ernmonts which represent numbers alone are unconstitutional despotisins. The fourth pero of Tammany Hall, from 18H to 1865, represents its. GRADUAL AND STEADY RISE TO ANSOLUTE POWEK OVER THE CITY. At the end of that period tho sovarcignty of the elty was more eoninelaly vested in the Tammn- we corporntion than 1s that of Austrin In tho House of Hapsburg, This conquest was effected through the apt and adrolt orgunization of ita general and local comnilttees, A continual in- erense bns occurred in the number and complexe ity of these cominittecs, but tholr essential prin- elple ind function havo been the same, Begin- ning at forty-five members in 182, tho number was soon afterwards increised to seventy-lvo, whore it remained for muny years, Tn 105 It had risen to nbout 300, and ft Is now 784, or one for euch election district in the city. The Gon- eral Committea has at ull times been tho pop- ‘ular and representative branch of Tammany Hall, sustaining to the interior and secret socicty oa rotntion ~ shnilar to that sustained by tho House of Commons of England to tho House of Lords, or perhaps mora nearly Ico that sustained by tho General Counclis of the Catholic Church to the College of Cardinals. ‘Tho seclety, consisting of membora olccted by the membership alrendy co: ing, is permanont, and, in a cortain sense, aristocratic or “ ploked." Tho General Committee ig elected In Decomber of cuch yenr by tho voters in tho soyeral Asscem- Diy districts, upon the brats of the numbor of Demveratic votes polled by that Asaembly dis- trict at the Inst preceding election. Subordinate to the Genery Committeo are tho District Com- mittces of each Assembly district, consisting of trom three to flye persons for each election dis- trict in such Assembly district. The District Comumittees now include a working fureo of from 2,000 to 3,000 ngenta, Since the number of mem- bers on tho General Committee corresponds to tho number of lolegates which the . soy. eral Assembly districts. would. ve enti- 3 to, sond to city or county con+ yontion for nominating city'and county officers, and, since the one is chagon tmmedintely prior to any election, and the other In December of the same year, by tho snmo voters, it follows that tho tivo virtually consist of the samo indi- viduals, In short, tho Genoral Committee has alltho advantages of a permanent city and county convention, linble to be callod togothor at any momemt by its Chairmen. Ina like songo tho Assainbly District Committee Is a permanent Agsombly district convention, Hable to be con- vened by Its Chairman. In tho Mat of names of the General Committes for 1874, the proportionof forelyn, and especially of Irish, names iaat lenst equal to tho ratio borne to tho whole population by tho voters of foreign and Irish birth,—considerably more than half consisting of Irish. We believe the popula- tion {s usually stated to contaln 47 per cent of foreign-born’ peraons, and 23 per cent more of tho childron of foreign-born parenta, Tho na- tonality ot tho General Committesof Tammany Hull gots fur to Justify Horace Ceenien notion that tho city {s n4 exclusively governed by alfons as Dublin or Berlin, (Here followsn more particular account of tho intornal organization of ‘ammany."
