The women, too, had their say on these jand other topics, which will be found clse- where in the columns of the HeRa.p, and] which we commend to our readers. oT ‘The Comptroller amd the Police Esti-— mates. Comptroller Green has thought proper to} reduce the estimates of the Police Commis-ff sioners for the patrol service for the current year by the large sum of threo hundred thousand dollars. There is no pretence that the department has been “extravagantly managed, or that any larger amount has been asked for than is required to keep up the force to its pre-_ sent efficiency. The Comptroller simply cuts off three hundred thousand dollars, making the show upon paper of saving that amount, and leaves to the Police Board the option of| getting into debt and showing a deficiency at the close of the yeay, or of reducing the num- ber of the force ina corresponding ratio. Well understand that the Commissioners refuse to incur the responsibility of spending more than the amount appropriated to the service. They argue, and justly, that the action of the Comptroller implies that he considers that the protection of lifeand property does not demand as largo a patrol force as at present, and that upon him will rest the responsibility of the re- duction. Their own judgment leads them toa different conclusion. They beliove the force needs increasing rather than diminishing, and they urge their views upon the financial officer of the city. Ho responds by stopping the sup- plies, and thus compels the Commissioners to adopt his views and to reduce the number of patrolmen. At the present time there are two thousand one hundred men engaged cn patrol duty. This number is at least five hundred less than is roquired for the proper protection of the city. In the Fifteenth, Eighteenth and Twentieth precincts there are posts of duty from three to five miles in extent. This is especially the case in the uptown districts, where the most watchfulness is needed. It is notorious that the numerical insufficiency of the force is thei cause of the successful organization of bands fi of thieves and ruffians known as the Spring street gang, the Nineteenth ward gang and the like, whose outrages are now an every day af- other form, and places a copy in every dele- gate’s hand, so that they may at least read his ‘words of wisdom. Rev. James Lynch, of Mississippi, is a colored man, possessing fine natural gifts of oratory, good powers and great earnestness on matters in which his race and people are interested. He has made but one real speech before the General Conference, ‘and that was against the election of a colored bishop, and so convincing were his arguments that, as if by mutual consent, the matter was allowed to drop. Dr. A. J. Kynett, of Upper Iowa, is greatly interested in the extension and increase of churches throughout the sparsely settled por- tions of our country, and his speeches have been mainly directed toward thatend. He is ‘a tall man and has a voice remarkable for its compass and clearness, and both of those qualities command attention and help to carry conviction, Among the lay debaters most prominently stands Judge McCalmont, of Erie, a man of fine stature and a very good parliamentarian. ‘There is a huskiness in his speech and utter- anco which is not very agreeable, especially when he becomes warmed in debate. Ha takes part in nearly every discussion and offers excellent advice, Judge Goodrich, of Chicago, is a man of few words, but they are golden words. They drop ‘wisdom and instruction,-and after he has spoken little more may be said. His long and large experience in the law and his position in the Church give him great weight with his col- leagues and with the Conference. Judge Cooley, of Upper Iowa, occasionally enters the arena in debate, and, like his legal brother from Illinois, his speeches have a con- lservative tendency and a tranquillizing effect, His duties as one of the secretaries prevent him, however, from taking a prominent partin the deliberations of the body. Mr. B. R. Bonner, of St. Louis, is one of the calmest and most discreet debaters in the Con- ference, and very great weight is attached to his sayings. He stands high among the Meth- odists of the Mississippi Valley, and hence brings with him to the Conference something more than merely personal influence. He has displayed very excellent judgment in his dis- cussion of every measure that has come before the body,-and so impressed was the Conference with his qualifications in this regard that he ministration Senators begin to be indifferent % themselves about New York and Brooklyn qfair.

It is gratifying to note how generously his contemporarios recognize the valuable services rendered by Mr. Bennett to the cause of journalism, and how cheerfully they do justice to his energy, enterprise and power. The highest praise that can be be- stowed upon the founder of the Herazp is the acknowledgment of those who have been his colaborers and competitors that he leaves the H Senator secks to substantiate by citing the Bopinion of Secretary Stanton, pronounced a F short time before his decease. So far as this q quoted authority is concerned Senator Sumner is unfortunate in his production of a witness. @ The late Secretary of War was known as a man of strong prejudices and not too discriminating, @ judgment, and it can readily be understood that, with his peculiar ideas of the propriety of conducting o war in Washington instead of in the field, he would not be at heart favorably disposed towards a gene- tal whose ideas of the management of a cam- paign were so directly opposed to his own.

Foremost among the ministerial debaters stands the venerable Dr. Henry Slicer, of Baltimore, the steadfast friend of Dr. Lana- han, late an agent of the Book Concern. His shining and happy face, flowing white hair and clear, flute-like voice promptly arrests attention. He is full of mirth and humor, which he unsparingly throws into his speeches. But while the delegates laugh at his witticisms and applaud him, they rarely, if, indeed, at all, vote for the side that he ad- ocates.
