THE GREAT TIDE OF IMMIGRATION, Tha fteod of lmmigration pouring into this country from the best countries of Eutopo is full of significance, iot only to this country, but to the countrles whenco It comes.

This now phase of Conkliinglsm is not calculated to Increase his claim upon publio respect. Ostonsibly Conkling has taken no part in the pending contest botween the Republicans and Democrats over the proposition to clect new ofticers for the Senate. 1llo -has been apparently indifferent to the alleged oppor- tunity fos the resuscitation of the Republican party by electing tho Rendjuster Riddle- berger, of Virginia, Sergeant-nt-Arms. Ile 1ing merely voted with his party to wnnke o tio and prolong the *deadlock.” So far as we have observed, he has not had n single word to sny in behsit of tha rights of the « constitutional mojority” clalmed by other Republicans, Judging from the record alone, he would not be held responsible In the slightest degree for the negloct of publle business during the past seven weoks, and it would be Impossible to sny whether or not he npproves of the detormined refusal to conslder the executive nominations, Never- theless thore are reasons to belleve thab Mr, Conkling, usually so arrogantand offensive in pressing his projects, has in this instanco skulked behind a caucus which la acting In abedlenco to his dictatlon,—not to nchieve tha publlc or even thé party purposc put for- | ward as Its aim, but to asslst the New York Senator In defeating a nominntion which is obnoxious to his personal Intersts, 1t Is becoming more and more apparent avery day that Conkling holds the key of the dendlock. Ilo and his henclunen in and out of tue Senats opposo every movement for | oponing it or brenking it. The suggestion for n caucus is mot at once by a pressure of opposition from tha Conkling forces. Mr Conkling hlmsetf mnkes no publlc argumeons In defenso of the present situntion, probably beeause ho I8 consclous that it Is weals, il- logical, nnd senseless, Heknows wellenough that the Rupublicana In tho Sonate, who can {nnocaso control more than onc-half the votes on the floor, are unable to carry the polnt for which they are ostensibly contend- Ing, He knows that the Demiocrats, with oxnetly the other hal€ of the votes on the floor of tha Sondte, can postpone the pro- posed election ot -officers indefinitly, and de- prive the Sunuto of n quoruin at uny time It is Inthelr interest to do so, Ho kuows that the strugglo over the Senate ofices is not only hopeless, but.can be ronewed ns well after scting upon the oxecutive apyointments as before, Foknows that tho ‘Liboral movement n the South s not to be promoted by erippling the Clvil-Service and noglecting the public business. Hence he does not stwitify himself by lonaing the de- Date, but at the same time he covertly mslsts upon malntaining the deadlock until ho feels that he lhas propared the way by Lnrgaing and Intrignes to defont the nomination of Judge Robertson, > 'ho Insolent and delusive proposition that President Garflold shall withdmaw atl the nowinations ho has sent Into the Senate, on the ground that the Sunato has not yot fully orgunized, 18 munifestly o suggestion of Conkitng’s, - L'he President would make himselt ritlleulous by any such procoeding, The Bennte is a permansut body, It Isal- ways orgnuized, ‘The oficers hold till tholr sucesssoss aro olected.

It was o notics to the Administration that 1y might thus let Itself down easily In the nct of sur rendering to Alr, Conkitng: Quece withdrawn, upon this or auy othorprefext, the' nowmine- tion of Judge Robertson could not be re- newed without giving Mr, Conkling an op- portunity to assert that such renewal was In- tonded a8 s persons! nffront to hilmself,—once withdrawa, {ia fact, It would never be re- nowed. 3 Alr, Copkling as a schiomer {s no longer on- titled to the respect whlc!ucpun(enui man, oven though seltiah and arrogant, may comwm- mund from hisopponents, On this account Jie 18 Juss toruridable now than he was when he declared open war upon the Ilayes Ad- miuistrhtion, and fn. the ‘same pro- portion o §s Jeas .likely to have bis way, Moreover, his tactics In the present case have buoen directed agaiust the thom are 1t i3 ovidont that she wilt do so without any sympathy from the Powers, in which casy ahe miay lose all that has nirendy been proi- Ised her, Evory motiveot prudence, it would acem, should suggest to Greeeo that she has nothing to gatn by war, and that she had bet- tor tako n part of what wns ufferod her than to loso ovorything in n war in which she would be speodily overwhelmel by ‘Turkey.

Anexchange publishes @ letter upon the destruction of our pine forests which con- tains some very signifieant fizures, It ns- serts that during the season just closed more thun glx billions (0,279,850,000) of feot of lum- ber have been felled In Michigan, Wiscon- sin, and Minuegota, It Is estimated that the logging this sumtner will swell this amount to seven aud a hal? billions of (7,420,03,000) feot, As tho census agents report that tho wholo quantity of pine timber standing in theso three States Is but cighty-ono and o Ialt billians (81,650,000,000) of feet, n slmple sum in diviston wiil show that tho supply will only lnst twelve years, if thu pres ent rate of destruction 8 kept up, and thero' 1s no wny of supplying tho loss, sinca once the pino Is cut off a growth of hard wood follows, which 1s not only slow of growth and of'the scrub varlety, but I practicully nseless for bullding purposes, The Maine plnerles are also com- paratively exlinusted, lnmberlng opcrations now being confined to spruce, Miehigan Jumber has even been shippod to Bangor, indicating that the home supply is giving out. In consldering tho subject, tho New York Tribune thinks that the danger of n tiamber famine Is not so serious ns might at first be thought, sinco the vxtensive plnerles In Southern Guorgle, Alabama, Texns, and Northorn Florida havo havdly been touched, nor of Oregon and Washington, 1t alsv adds that “Somo nllowanco must be imade, too, for the growth of the young trees In the Northwestern pinerles from which the lnrgo timbar hins been removed und whero the soll 1s too poor to be converted into farms.” On this polnt, however, the Tribune 18 in error, as we have alrendy shown, for the land once cleared of plne does not grow pingagain, but hard wood and worthless sirubs, so that no allownance can bo made for reproduction. Nor do we Imagine that nich rolinnce Is to bu placed upon Southern pineries boyond the demands of homo consumptlon. The prinel- pal saving will rather be found th this: that when Jumber becomes so scarca that prices run up very high, lumber will largely cease to be used, and stong, brick, and iron will take 1ts piace for building purposes. Induod, thoy are doing 80 nlrendy. Our farmers, espe- cinlly those who are.forehanded, are using brick In bullding, and fron enters into con- struction, In cities ospactally, very nrgely, not only in ornumontation, but m the moro useful and substantinl detulls. of structures, Tumense quantities of pino have also been used hitherto in the constructlon of fencing, ‘which Insts but a littlo time, but now barbed wire Is rupldly taking ‘Its pluce In fenelng, with the excaption of posts, und this whil lm- mensely relfeve the vresent dostruction of plue. Apart from this saving, farmers will derive grent benefis from thd substitution of othier material beeauss they will hava moro substantinl and permanent howes than the prosent flimsy structures which are so com- mon ail over our Westorn pralries, The de- cndence of our forests thoreforo is notan wnmixed onlamity It 1¢ will Induce the use of other and more jasting materlal, Just ns soon a8 lumber becomes 8o dear that it 15 im- possiblo to use it, there will be plenty of waterial that 1s chieaper and bétter and wore I BA¥E.KEEPING OF THE CITY FONDS A woek or 80 ngo Ald, Burloy proposed In the Councll an amendment to the revised ordinances which should roquire the City Proasuror to make a docluration In his monthly statoment to,the Controller as to where o keeps the clty funds on deposlt, Ald, Durley was formerly City Controllur, and knows by experlonco that the omission tospeclfy whoro the eity funds are kept pre- vents n verification of the manthly state- ments and offers an opportunlly for fraud and defalention, Ilubetloves that it Gnge had been required to toll where his funds wore, the falso monthly statoments ho made under onth as to the amount of monuy he had sub- feet to olicck or draft would haye been ex- posed and the subsequent dofalcation uvert- od.
