18 THE. POLICE. DEPARTMENT How the Commissioners Ef- , fected “Reform.” ee MAKING UP A SLATE. Inefficiency of the Present Board of Police. QUEER METHODS OF BUSINESS | iim | rect direction ot That the Police Commissioners hoped that their Action in removing some of the headquarter de- tectives would be considered by the publicas @ decided rejorm there can be no question, but the fact is that, governed by personal motives as to certain members of the squad, or in utter ignor- auce of the real facts in tue case, the Board have wot accomplished what they professed to be so anxious todo. The line of action taken by the Board on Friday proves conclusively that none of the Board have auy adequate or Intelligent idea of police duty, and the display of ignorance thus | made 1s a lamentable one. THE POLICE BOARD ‘ein reality the most important commission io this city, for the department they control responsible tor the personal safety of every citizen, besides guarding the millions and millions of @oliars invested in real and personal prop- erty. The police are supposed to maintain order | Everything 1s gone over on four separate occ: watchiag each | member of the Board to betray their companions down stairs the Commissiouer would not ha sent them on post first. To make the action of ti Board at all consistent the Commissioners mu sweep the entire squad away, and that would be wrong, ‘or all of the men are not guilty. They must send Sampson away, although he is the ai clent irtend of the President. No bal! work tn th matter Will satisiy the people, and if the Detective Bureau were placed in the hands o! an honest and | competent man he would soon rectify the existing | evil, and pick out all of the honest taient that is in it, INCAPACITY OF THE BOARD. Judging ‘rom the method of conducting business, the Commissioners Oagut fo relieve Mayor Wick- ham by resigning ard give Lim an opportunity to piace men in tie Board who have some expert- ence, ability and some tangible idea what the police 18 for, The fact ts, they have been flounder- ing and bdlundering ever since they went mto mice, apd they will continue to vo so as long as they occupy their positions, It is well known that there ts no harmony among thei, uo frank- S, BO straightiorwardness. Every one is for sel, and they are a biock in the rs affairs in the department. They have made such # mess of the Street Clesning De- partment that nothing shert of resignation or re- | moval can accomplish reform, A prominent politician who visited the Central Ofice on Saturday said:—"The Board .of Poice is to be removed, and shortly. That bas been de- cided op, Half a dozen causes of removal bave been submitted, any one of which willdo, Tne Commissioners ‘can be sent to their homes, from which they never should have beeo taken. upon street cleaning matters atany moment. It only rests With the Mayor to tind good men to take their places and put these aside.”? The method of transacting business as adovted | by the Commissiouers proves their in pacity, sions, and their time is spent other and: fining the patrolmen. All the poiice work the Board can really be said to despatch the trials of delinquents. The committees are | organized in the folluwing manner:— Street Cleaning—Commissioners Disbecker, Dur- yee and Voorhis. _ Rules and Diseipliné—Commissioners Voorhis, Duryee and Disbecker. Disbecker, Surgeons—Commissioners pairs and Supplies—Commissioners Voorhis, | Duryee | and Voorhis, in the streets, repress licentiousness, watch alldis- | Durvee and Disbecker. | honest and suspicious persons, prevent accidents, search out aud arrest active and dangerous crim- inals, in fact keep the community in order, so that = mitiees. ach individual shall know bi8 personal rights, and, knowing them, bave them assured to him and be compelled to respec: those of others. Without @ police force no city or town can exist, for lile and property would not be safe, and when 4 police jorce is zealous and wise in the discharge of its responsible and manilold duties the community which supports it enjoys domestic peace and prosperity. Here in New York vur police force bas done good and honorable service, despite the | changes tuat hav: | in its organizarion. The rank and file who patrol and guard our streets in uniorm are composed of men who under a proper degree of discipline are basily kept to the strict line of duty. the Board that governs it ts composed of men who cannot grasp the aim and scope of their own duties the department must loge its effectiveness and value. @xernop oF CONDUCTING AFFAIRS, One of the present Commissioners is an old po- ice ofticer, yet ne apparently pays more attention to looking after the safety of his own position than to looking aiter bis subordinates, forgetting meanwhile that as President of the Board he ts |.) ce picapPEARANCE OF AN AGED GENTLE- | formed church, corner of Twenty-first street and responsibie for the efMiciency of the department If he attended to nis duties as be ought there would probably be no question of removal, which recent neglect seems now distinctly to fore- shadow.

WORK AMONG THE INDIANS. | THE OLD AND THE NEW POLICIES OF raz | GOVERNMENT CONTRASTED—THE APPEAL OF | A CHEROKEE. | A public meeting was held in the South Re- | Futh avenue, last evening, under the auspices of | the various missionary boards, to listen to reports and statements regarding the efforts being made at Christtamizing our Indian tribes, the progress jn which has been greater during the past year than in any previous one. Owing to the inciemency of the weather the attendance was very limited. Alter the usual religious services Dr. Jonn Mason Ferris was presented by Genera, Fisk, and proceeded to contrast the present In- uperintendents and agents were formerly ap- pointed by Congressmen as the reward tor politi- cal services to their followers. He graphically depicted the corruption, the great injustice to tne Indians, with the consequent wars and expense to the government which resultea, and portrayed the jwprovement which had iollowed on fotrusting the management o1 Indian affairs to che mission- ary boards of the various denominations.

[From the Journal des Débats.) ‘The debate on ireedom of university education, which extended over three days in the National Assembly, bas proved that our parliamentary babits and our political knowledge are both very dejective. Discussion was very passivnate and | stormy; the broadest charges were bandied about and every one displayed great ignorance of the | true principles of liberty, We were very | much astonished to hear MM. Louis Blanco | aud Paul Bert adjourning treedom of university education to @ period wen ail barriers siiou:d be removed at once, and the press. clubs and asso- | ciations should be completely emancipated. They know history too weil not to Know tuas liberty does not descend trom heaven wll at once aud in | @ state Of periection; that it is acquired littie by | little, foot by ioot, by a series of sustained efforts | and rdly-won concessions. Everything or noth. | ing—such, unlortunately, has been the motto of | French iiberals since 1789; and it is tor this | that, after so many struggies and trials, we are still 80 far trom the glorious end which we aspired | to. Let us accept ireedom of education—it will aid us towion more! But, it is said, our adv saries Will make use of the privilege which you give us in the same way that we will, perhaps in greater measure and eariier, Look at the | names of the men who demand f.eedom of university education, and you will see whither such jiverty Jeads! This 18 an old despotic argument which recoils directly on those who employ it, ‘There is uo mean, Either liberty is in itself a thing good, just and truthful, aud then the intentions Of those who ask it matter littie, or jiverty to do good suould be alone autborized, and io that case We ask tne Leit by waat sign trutif1 to be recognized. Liverais complain, witn justice, of the absviute dominion tormerly exercised over education by the clergy, but why do they wish to ubetitute ‘one tyrainy for auother? Intol- nce On the part of the State would appear to fatal than the intoltrance ot Chureh. It would be even more dangerous, for | it would be mure capricious, each revolution | | carrying into authority new doctrines and men | ready to proseribe eachother, What 1s to ve said | Of the apprehensions expressed by some speakers | | respecting the morai unlty of Francer MM, lemel Lavour and Paul Bers are alraid of the divisions Which might be produved by diferent systems of education in @ country agitated by | | Opposing parties, ‘hese apprenetisions would affect us muca more if the men who leel them were not in the habit of praising up the liverty—which according to them is absolute—of | the German universities. “In Berlin,” said M. Paul Bert, “some years ago an eminent professor taught @ series of doctrines, and beside him, or rather inthe same chair, his assistant attacked them and demonstrated, in my opinion, that his superior Was Wrong.” aod youqguote this as an exauple to be imitated. You wish to tutroduce aivision into the very bosom of the school. aud ou leign to fear the dissension’ which might reak out between different schools!
