We also published, in confirmation of our position, a large number of memorials, which were presented, during the evmmer, to the Common Council, by thousands of citizens, who were suffering from this all-pervading and loathsome evil. One of these me- morials related to the German burying ground on Fifteenth street. The neighbors declared that the efiluvium from decomposing corpses had be- come intoleravly offensive—that a large number of persons had died of cholera in the houses ad- joining this ground—that many of the neighbors dows closed, and finally to move out of the dis- trict; and thatthings had come to such a pass that coffins were piled in thick tiers upon one another, and packed im large holes shaped somewhat like cellars. Dunng two months, four hundred bodies of the ground that human remains were discovered oozing up. Another memorial, signed by many respectable citize complains of similar nuisances in the ba- rial ground bounded by Chrystie, Houston and For- syth streets. These numerous petitions set forth a state of things altogether too horrible and disgust- wg to be dwelt upon in detail. And now anoth: Common Council, into whose ears these unavail- ing prayers of suffering fam miny of whose members had been literally killed by the poisoa from which they could not eseape, has gone out, never having interested themselves in the matter, any farther than to have a committee appoiated to print their repert. We have never had many occa- sions to compliment the zeal or fidelity displayed by the corporation of this city for the good of ita inhabitants. One by one, common councils are ed, under the cry of reform; but they are all very much alike—reckless of the real interests of their constituents, and anxious chiefly to rob them of what they can, and squander the rest. There can be no manner of deubt that every persoa in in some | burials prohibited altogether; but there is no hepe | of getting such an ordinance es that passed. We | are glad to see that our suggestions have had some | force in a more respectable quarter. A committee | has been eppointed in one branch of our Legis. | lature, to inquire into the propriety of enacting a | law to prevent interments in cities and crowded populations throughout the State. We presume there is very little doubt but that this measure will! be carried through at once. The experiments of | scientific men have demonstrated that vastly the largest portion of the human system, as it decom- poses underground, escapes in noxious exhala- tions, which have, in multitudes of instances, pro- | duced aimost immediate death to those in the neighborhood. |The facts which have recently been brought out, by commissioners appointed in London and Paris, have shocked intelligent men throughout Europe, and a reform has commenced | in France and England, which will undoubedly be made universal. The very idea of having the air ‘hat we breathe, that comes into our windows | whenever they are opened, and that presses upoa poison, is loathsome, disgusting, and fearful in the | last degree; but it often happens that men are | more ineensible to such stupendous evi! and dan- s for believing, his almost dic- | atellect of the | flogration. | experiepee in the zek, wre very of Wi eere, thaa they are to the esmmoa inconve ces of every-day life. We hope that this matter in the vegislature 1s m the hands of a committee who | will mvestigate the subject thoroughly, and re. | commend the passage of a stringent law, which shall take from the hands ot undertakers and churches the power of keeping up these tremen- dous and deathly sinks of corruption, disease dnd death. i ae Tur Prosectep Wuire-Kiv Riot ar tae Opts Hovse.—The projectors of this new species of fashionable amusement in the fashiongh! circles, are beginning to disclose themeelves; but rospects are of making Out a splendid we are as yet unable to ascertain. at several we past, beginning with the opera season, in trying as much es he could to create jealousy between the jemale artista.

The ob- public at large; and it follows, of course, that none but papers of the largest and most comprehen- sive circulation should be selected for the purpose. What use is there in advertising in jouraals hav- ing liule cirevlation?

We hope this 1s only the commencement of a reform which the common sense of the commu- nity has demanded for a number of years past. If publicity is the object and end of advertising, why not advertise in the papers haying the largest cir- culation? Heretofore, the political journals of each party have been selected for advertising purt poces. In ten thousand cases we have seen money thrown away in this respect, because the political organ of the party in power, whig or democratic, was seen but by few people, as it had compa- ratively a very small circulation. To continue such a system, is to continue one of corruption and waste. If editors have not talent or ability sufficient to commend a circulation for their journal, it 1s a fraud on the public to expend their meneys in advertising in such newspa- pers. A paper that is the organ of a political party, is read almost exclusively by that party, whether it be whig or locofoco, and never can have en extended or comprehensive circule. tion. Not so with independent journals. All par. ties read them, and their circulation 1s among all. Hence it follows, as a matter of course, that if the public moneys are expended judiciously as far as advertising is concerned, the dependent journals, having the largest circulation, ought to be selected. Since this reformatory step has been taken by the Common Council, we trust it will be followed by other legislative bodies, especially by the Legis- lature at Albany and the Congress at Washington, We have advocated it for a long time past, on the plain principles of common sense and public ad, Light seems, at length, to be breaking in upon one legislative body, and itis to be hoped vantage. that the same result will follow in other places, What is to prevent both branches of Congress from passing a law compelling the agents of the govern- ment to select for goverament advertising purposes, newspapersof the largest circulation? It is of the highest umportance that the government advertising should have the utmost publicity. There never was a more popular measure than that requiring the post office advertising to be published in the way wereferto. Ithas caused a great saving to the government, and in every respect is popular. | We trus: Congress will look into this matter, and do in the premises what common sense points out, and what the interests of the public require. Comrensation To THE Mempens or THE ComMON pensation Covxcn..—We observe that the new Council have taken up the subject of com to the individual members, and seme disposition seems to be shown favorable to the abolition of all tea-room fooleries, and to the enac of a regular provision for the payment of the others thought that the new charter would give sufficient authority to the present n Coun- | valuable article in the city, or country, or large tow cil. This last opinion we deem to be the most pe fe att ee “st correct one. There seems to be the same authori- members of the Common unnecessary matter to applyfto the Legislature for | any act, When the ent under which they hold confers sufficient jority for this purpose. Let both boards fore promptly, and at once, passa city law for the purpose ot paying for the Aldermen and Asmstants. All executive powers are, by the charter, taken trom these boards, and, consequently, every indecent act of stealing and plundering, umder the name of the tea room, and | every attesnpt to apply it to their own purposes, are | wrong. We must havea reform. To prevent a thief from stealing beef and pork, you must give work, und the means of gettiog honestly what he wants of beef, pork wnd ether articles for his sub- sistence. Let the two boards pay themselves out | ‘of the tunds of the Corporation, and liberally, too. ‘The people will support this policy. But let them, at the same time, insist upon a rigorous inquiry and investigation into the several execative de- partments. Tox Mysteries or tak Tomns—Tariat or tae Davnrys.—This very singular and mysterious case, tions, for trial this week or next. Whenever it may come on it will create a deep interest in the minds of the community, ia consequence of the various strange talee and stories told about it in some of the weekly journals. Many remarkable personages ve mixed up in this affair. The Drurys are not alone it it. We have Arlington Bennet, Marevs Cicero Stanly, Oae-eyed Thompson, Brise ‘ol Bill, George Wilkes, Mr. Warner, Mr. Poster, the broker, and we don’t know how many other distinguished personages. The crimes embraced in these mysteries and charged to certain of the parties, are equally numerous—assasei- nation, forgery, theft, burglary, deception, folly, duyery, and we don't know what else besides. Some of the newspaper articles of the day: seemed to bear very herd on Drury, until the figure of Ar. lington Bennet rove up on the canvass, and thea the rays of indignation seemed all at once to cons centrate on him. Whether the sequel will anravel all theee mysteries we can’t tell, but we have thas for very strong doubts that all is not right in some quarter, and that pigeoning comewhere in the business will be remarkably interesting. wre has been a great deal of stool The tria Censrat.
