THE WALTON-MATHEWS MURDER. A correspondent, styling himself “Sympathy,” sug- gests, very properly, that provision be made by the friends, or out of the estate, of Mr. Walton, for the widow of the brave man Mathews, who lost his life in the on- deavor to arrest Walton’s assassin. Tle suggestion com- mendg \trelf to consideration. THE POLICE STAR CHAMGER. Acorreepondent of an inquisitive tarn of mind, who ollewed @ prisoner to one of the station houses to see what would become of him, feels quite indiguant bec wse the door was closed in bis face, and aske ‘whether they bave @ right to make # star chamber of our station houses?” Our correspondent had better avoid places of that character.

If they are, they Should be informed at once. I believe myself that these institutions can be stopped in their operations.

AS you are now engaged ia holding up to public repro ‘bation the rogues and ‘indiers of other classes, may request the favor of a few lines to expose the shameful Practices of a company which, though often censured, BUill seems to bid defiance to the indignant remonstrances of the press? The managers of the Third avenne com pacy, who have secure! without payment « privilege worth at least $100 000, aud whose stock is said to be quoted at 196, seem utterly regardless of the comfort or even the safety of the public. Whea we consider that the valuable fraschise they pl itoualy obtained is so much plundered from the patient, taxpaying publi2, one would imagine that they ought to secure at least suf. ficient accommodations for those whom they have thas cheated, It is notorious that Sfty per cent of the pas Sengers have to stand, they being in fact picked as clore as berrings ia » ‘barrel, and almost stitiing with heat, Were this but ail, we would not compisia of their accommodating their borses and their di¢i dends at the ex of the sudering public; but lat terly they transfer the contents of one ear’ into au other, though both are already Gilet of at least the seats | occupied.

COMMON COUNCIL REFORM, TO TUS EDITOR OF THE BKKALD. How long are the people of this great metropolis to scb- mit to be represented by the class of men who now fill our council chambers? How long will those who regard decency, order and integrity ag valuable characterist! remain eupiuely indifferent as to who shall fit! our pub! places? y How lovg shall the great emporium of the New World be misgoverned? Will the time never come when the Common Council of the city of New York shal! be en tirely composed of honest, intelligent and upright mea— men who will administer the government upon priuciples of strict integrity and economy, leoking for their reward in the enjoyment of a clear conscience and ap bones! beart? It is useless to say thas such a state of things cannot be Drought about. The friends of order and goo! govern- ment bave it in their power to do it, if they wil! but de- vote the time and neceagary means to such an object And to what more important purpose can they devote time and movey? Two-thirds of the amount now appro- Priated for the expenses of the city government would be amply sufficient, were its affairs bonest!y administered But go long as wo give Japanese celebrations at a charge ‘of $105,006 (the real cost of which wus not probably more than half that amount); so long as our city fran- chises are bartered away to political epeculators, 80 long ‘a8 contracts are given out upon the samo shameless «ye tem of dishonesty—co long will our taxes increase and our city government stand, as it now does, a disgrace to its inbabitants. Let our taxpayers and all good citizens, irrespective of party, band themselves together, with a firm determination to put an end to this corrupt state of things, and it will be done Let twelve good and efficient men from each ward get together and quietly nominate men of the right stamp who will serve; then let them and their frienis go to work with the same energy and ptrseverance that they would devote to thei own private concerns, for two or three weeks previous to the election, would arouse a spirit and zeal whicn would be irresistible. Success would crown their efforts, and we should have rulers who would be an honor to their con. stitoenta and themselves.
