We saw in Broadway an afternoon or two agoa couple of Chinese piano covers, elaborately embroi- dered, valued at one thousand dollars ‘each. It struck us that their purchasers, should they ever find any, would be afflicted with more money than brains. Very many are in the habit of piling newspapers on the covers of the letter boxes placed on lamp- posts, under the fmpression that the carriers wili gather them ana deposit them in the Post Office. They are never tonched until the rag and paper gatherers take them up and carry them to dealers in those articles. On an afternoon we have seen not less than three bughels of papers, carefully sealed ‘and duly stamped, piled on these boxes, which, al- most as soon as they were deposited, a chifonnier would coolly put in his bag. Our readers may rest Assured that no newspaper or package not small enough to be dropped inside the box ever sees a mail Gentiemen in the country, however rude of man- ner or, uncouth in speech, need not fear a visit to this city because of their want of polish. Any boot- black can give them that for ten cents, ‘What will bill stickers do when the fence which at present—like the silver vell that covered the face of the faise prophet of Khorrassan—conceals the beauties of the new Court House from the public gaze is torn down? For the past three or four years it has been a mine of wealth and a source of conso- lation to theatrical managers and “sich.” It ts said that since the introduction of patent lager, on account of the larger percentage of alcohol it contains, “fight”? among the Germans has fear- fully and wonderfaly increased, almost rivalling in quality, if not in quantity, that extracted from potheen. On Friday afternoon, a few hours previous to the delivery of the acceptance speech at Tammany Hall of the nominee for President of the democratic party, the huge vehicle, with the sullen bell within its body, left Broadway, entered the City Hall Park ‘and presently stopped in fron: of the building in whigh atl the rings are made. There the bell tolled for the space of five minutes its “funereal knell.” ‘When it had ceased its “dreadful clang” @ fellow ‘with the voice of # Stentor shouted to the assembied hundreds that had been gathered on the esplanades, “Three cheers for Horatio Seymour." Not a brasen throat responded to the appeal. “There were none 80 poor to do him reverence.” Considering the expansive condition of the mer- cury in the thermometrical tube, the coolness with ‘Which the names of the nominees of the Democratic National Convention have been received by the peo- Ple amounts almost to the degree of frigidity. ‘The trees, the branches of which were denuded of thetr foliage by the measuring Worm, are reclothing themseives and look almost as fresh as when the> first donned “the green” in the sweet month of Mey. Some method should be adopted competling thege insects toreave the shade trees on our atrects alone. Ladies object to them—even tue stroug- minded. The leaders on the buildings in Broadway 10 which the Museum was are in a dangerous condi- tion for those who pass on the sidewalks. They may at any moment give way, and as they must fall on the flagging, the chances are that many will be seriously injured if not killed, These leaders ought to be removed without delay. Will Captain Mills see to this? Among the most ridiculous contrivances for saving life ever yet suggested are the Indders and balconies which ornament that peculiar expression of the Christian civilization of this city—the tenement houses. Imagine for a moment a particularly adi- pose gentleman, given to much puffing of wind and redness of face, attempting the descent from the fourth or sixth story of his residence, holding, like “grim death ona nigger,” to an upright iron ladder, the flames from the windows, as he descends, leap- ing out, and with their forked tongues singeing his epidermis and making tinder of the only garment he in his haste could muster—his night shirt. It is Teally cruel to ask a fat man to save his life at such fearful cost to his dignity and his cuticle, Yes, those fire escapes are simply ridiculous. We have been given to understand that ‘Vital Statistics” of the Board of Health and a coadjutor are about to compel a reform in or closing up of the works of the Manhattan Gas Light Company, on the ground that the smells which impregnate the atmos- phere are hurtful to those who reside on the east side of the town, in the vicinity of the company’s build- ings. This is quite right. While the Board of Health are attending to the purification of the atmosphere we breathe it would be weil for them to look nearer home. Within two hundred yasds of the head- quarters of the Board, in Mott street, a cause of stench will be found that is decidedly hurtful to those who live near it, Gentlemen, while you are about it, sweep the city clean of everything obnox- ious to the public health, including even your excel- lent selves, if it is deemed neccessary. Judging from the vehicular arrangement drawn by eight gray horses ¢hrough the city, on which is painted in the most glowing colors the names of the candidates for President and Vice President, with portraits to match, gotten up in the “loudest” style of the house painter’s art, the democracy seem re- solved on taking allopathic doses of belladona, Un- doubtedly during the coming campaign tt will be found. useful as a counter trritant. In the days of Dickey Riker, Bill Hayes and tite “leatherheads” crime in proportion to population fell far behind the present rates as compared with population. In those halcyon days stout fellows, strong enough to hdndle a sledgehammer or guide a plough through prairie land, were not paid $1,200 per annum for promenad- ing and ornamenting the streets, Since the introduction these—police comiissioners, a of brilliant superintendent (who knows more than the law allows), captains, a corps of detectives in- cluded—crime of all Kinds—murder, robb for- gery, petty larceny and the misdemeanors which crowd the catalogue of evil—has feaffully increased, outrunning the increase of population. If you doubt the assertion compare the criminal statistics of @ quarter of a century ago with those of to-day, Why can we not have public baths of salt and of fresh water for the “great unwashed"’ in this city? Just think, Messieurs of the Young Men’s Demo- cratic General Committee, what a capital chance is here for youto show your gratitude for the many favors extended by your constituents. Or are you afraid that, ‘cleanliness being next to godliness,” a row couldn't be got up to order by a people who had all their shoulder-hitting propensities diluted with something weaker than whiskey? We notice that the steps of many of our leading hotels are seriously aMicted just now with inventors and their agents, each armed with a model of some particular kind of contrivance either for harrowing the earth or the pockets of men. Could not one of these geniuses get up some kind of a machine for making politicians houest, thereby purifying rings so that when a street is to be repaved, widened or straightened, two out of every three dollars “assessed on the lines of the improvement” shall not go into the pockets of the “projectors” in the vicinity of the City Hall? Ann street is in a fearful condition. It is really unsafe to drive a horse and wagon through it, Can- not something be done for this thoroughfare’ It will cave in one of these days, if the Street Commissioner is not meantime caved in by indignant property holders. We have heard a great many piously inclined people make their first essay at swearing in Ann street, notwithstanding the fact that temples devoted to the worship of the “‘tiger’’ prevail in it. Is it really necessary that large stones should be left lying aronnd loose in that part of Broadway which has been repaved and is now open to the public? The contractors ought to look with sharp eyes after these boulders, or some wretch may step in when their backs are turned and steal them. We can hardly persuade ourselves of its verity, but we have been positively assured that women of wealth and moving in respectable society are greatly given to gambling in the more private faro saloons of the city. The Superintendent of Police, it is said, sent a detective to inquire into the truth of the rn. mor, but he could fiad nothing in it, Of course he could not. A female scribbier in “the organ devoted to clevat- ing women,” says she is in favor of following the men. She ought to be ashamed of herself, She quali- fles her language, it is fair to add, by introducing the adjective “good.” Why, dear unknown of your sex, every man is good for something, ‘else he were no man,” as Shakspeare says. Why cannot the rough pavements of the streets that are at right angles to Broadway be sprinkled with water equally with the smooth ones? Is it be- cause there is not that chance of breaking horses’ legs that they are not? POLITICAL NOTES. The anagram of the words “Vote for Horatio Sey- mour" ts “For you to have more riots.’ The one contains the other, exactly; nothing more or less. Upon one of the banners that adorned the speak er’s stand of the white and black republican demon- stration in Atlanta on the Fourth was inscribed:— «In union ‘thair’ is strength.” The Cincinnati Chronicle gives the following ver- batim report of the speech of President Grant to his Cabinet, March 4, 1869:—‘Gentlemen, I hope you will excuse me for one hint preliminary—do as much as you can, and say as little.”* A fair reply was that made by a Pittsfield demo- crat, whose sympathy with the war against the re. bellion was not excessive, to’ the question, “How do things look at New York?” “ H—, seems to me it looks damnably like another lost cause |” The Cincinnati Commercial calla Seymour the “@reat Decliner.”” The following Conventions will month :— duly 16—Michigan, democratic, in Detroit. ay 16—Missouri—republican, in Jefferson City. aly 16—West Virginia, democratic, in Grafton, duly $5— Georgia, democratic, in Atlanta, The Norfolk Journal says that the following is a copy of @ letter written to a prominent radical of that city:— SENATE Of.

The bears onthe Stock xchange have been ctr- culating exaggerated reports all day relative to the extent of the forged alterations of certificates of stock which have been made. by one HI. Hoyt, whose frauds we have referred to on former occastons, Altered certificates have been discovered of Michi- gan Southern, Fort Wayne and Pacific Mail stock; but although certificates for amal! amounts of Cleve. land and Pittsburg, New York Central, Erie and Rook Island are supposed to have passed into the hands of the forger, there is, so far as we have been enabled to learn, no conclusive evidence as yet that they have been altered and foisted upon any one; and it will probably be found that although the ope- rations of the forger have been more extensive and successful than was at first supposed, they are by no means as serious as rumor would make believe. The stock market was somewhat un- reported fresh discoveries of these frauds, and a general although not im- portant decline in prices took place; but there is reason to believe that their full effect has been already felt, and that a sharp rally will succeed in the beginning of the ensuing week. Money lenders showed no distrust of their collaterals where the borrowers were weli known, and loans were made settled by the at3a5per cent on call, Some discrimination 4s, however, made against weak and unknown bor- rowers, this city for the week ending to-day is favorable to continued monetary ease, the deposits having increased $3,269,335, ‘and the Specie $7,280,618, waile the legal tender notes have decreased $3,594,397, and the loans have increased $2,201,777. The only other change is an increase of $35,736 In the circulation. The totals of the present and last previous state- ment are as follows:— Deposits.

Government securities were unusually inactive, but steady, Subsequently fresh and exaggerated rumors in reference to altered certificates of stock wore circulated, and this caused members of both boards to withdraw to their offices to look over their own securities, and in thetr absence stocks were fered down by the bears. A decline of a Lig per cent took place in some stocks, but at the open board at one o'clock there was a general recovery, while the apprelensious previously excited subsided aud New York Central sold at 133%; Erie, 695, a 60%; preferred, 75; Reading, 954 a 95%; Michigan South- ern, 90% a 91; Cleveland and Pittsburg, $6 a 86%; Rock Island, 10744 a 107%; Northwestern, 78 a 78%; preferred, 8044 a 808; Wabash, 48%; Milwaukee and St. Paul, 6744; preferred, 7914; Fort Wayne (ex div.), 107%; Ohio and Mississippi, 2034; Pacitic Mail, 100 a 100%; Western Union Telegraph, 34%. After the call the market showed a tendency towards improve- ment, and a settied feeling prevailed, Reading at one time advancing to 96 and Erie to 69%, but subse- quently there was a relapse, and at the close at five o'clock on the street the quotations were as sub- joined, the market being steady at the annexed prices:—New York Central, 133% a 133%; Krie, 683 a 6874; Reading, 95a 95%; Michigan Southern, 91 a 9144; Cleveland and Pittsburg, 8654 a 8694; Rock Island, 107% a 10774; Northwestern, 7534 a 7854; pre- ferred, 8034 a 80%; fort Wayne, 10814; Ohio and Mis- M4, and Wayne sissippi, 29'¢; Pacific Mail, 100% a 100%; Western Union Telegraph, 644 a 3454.
