By his selection of the recontly appointed cardinals the Pope has doubtless imposed the election of a successor who will continue what may resuit from the action of Germany, all countries. The present Pope will leave the keys in a momentous crisis of the Church. A New Judge of General Sessions. The bill now before the Legislature, intro- duced by Mr. Daly, of this city, providing for | a new Judge of the Court of General Sessions to hold the same rank as the Recorder and to be elected, like him, by the people, is a better expedient for promoting the prompt adminis- tration of criminal justice than the bill for creating a new criminal court, introduced last week by Mr. Waehner. Phelps, and we trust it will be passed without serious opposition. The magistrate is to be County Judge. He is to be chosen for fourteen years at the next gen- eral election, and to bave the same powers as the Recorder and City Judge. Atter the new law goes into effect on the 1st of Janu- ary pext two branches of the Court of Gen- eral Sessions will be held each month, except | July and August, giving double the present facilities for the administration of criminal justice. The bill also authorizes the appoint- ment of an additional Assistant District Attor- and requires the Commissioner of Public Works to provide proper accommoda- and ten, suffers in his bodily health from the | man is suffering under probably incurable | malady, which is exacerbated by his enforced | change of habits.

Mr. Waehner's bill was in the right direction, but this is a better measure, The fact that it has the support of District Attorney Phelps ought to be ac- cepted as a proof both of its necessity and its | excellence. The Promised Balance Sheet. Some four months ago Mayor Wickham in- formed the Common Conncil that he was not 1m possession of such information as safficed to show the actual financial condition of the city, and he promised his aid to the Aldermen in any effort they might make to procure a satisfactory balance sheet up to December 31, 1874, showing exactly how much we owe and they have so long jointly administered. The part of our correspondent’s letter which | | will be read with most interest is his report of | the andience which was accorded him by the venerable Pontiff.

The Finance Department Lobby Guard are at their posts, under | command of a lending lobby chief, who returns to the State capital after a tree inter- change of views and ‘arguments’ with the head of that department, Everything be- | tokens an active period in the legislation of the session, and those who ara not in the secrets of the several cliques are anxiously and curiously awaiting developments. There are several charter jobs at Albany, and desperate efforts may be made to revive those that have been temporarily dispose] of and to press others that have not yet been reached @uring the last days of the session. The rumor prevails that Mr. Green is labor- ing to resuscitate his famous bill to abolish tho Mayor's office and make the Comptroller a sort of municipal autocrat. One report is | that the arguments of the lobby are to be used in its favor with the Commiitee on Cities, in whose safe keeping it now lies. Another is that the said arguments are intended for the black harse cavalry in the Assembly, so as to induce them to discharge the committee from the further consideration of the bill and to order it to the Committee of the Whole, Al- | though it seems probable that the latter at- his allies could only raise five votes in Tammany Hall against Mr. Kelly. If this great project has to be abandoned, however, there are several other plausible bills for tinkering the charter floating somewhere or other in the legislative current, all of which cover schemes concocted by the Finance Department, and none of which should be suffered to succeed. It is easy | enough to defeat bad legislation at the close of a session, if only a small number of hon- est representatives watch vigilantly for the appearance of jobs and oppose them with | Promptness and determination. A protec- tive guard of this kind should be formed in both houses, and the duty of its mem- bers should be constant atteridance and | unceasing vigilance. The charter of 1873, tinkered and patched by as corrupt a set of political gumesters as ever ruled the city, 1s open to amendment; but as we can- not hope for its improvement at this late | day, every attempt to change any of its pro- visions, except the alteration is one that commends itself strongly to favor, should be resisted.

Foreign nations were invited, and are coming if we are only ready to receive them; and are coming, too, through this gateway of New York. Now, what is New York State and city going to give to carry out trium- phantly this great plan? The Concord-Lexing- ton Centennicl has sharply indicated the enthusiasm which the greater event of the Fourth of July, 1876, will evoke. Let it be said, then, that New York has borne her share of the expense, avd in a proportion worthy of the Empire State. Rapid Transit ana the Legislature. There are a few things toe Legislature ought to do for the city of New York before it adjourns, if it desires to leave behind it some little favorable reputation at this end of the State. It did well to defeat the poultice pave- ment job; but it should follow up the good work by providing for the proper reprvement of Fifth avenue in accordance with the wishes of the residerts on the live and of the citizens generally, and should place the avenue under the authority and care of the Park Department. It should pass the Dill to provide for the removal of telegraph poles from the streets of the eity and to compel the companies to lay their wires underground, as they are laid in European cities. The compa- nies, wealthy and greedy, will rosist the change, because it will entail an outlay upon them ; but they ean afford the expense, and the question is one between their interests and the interests of the city. Above all, it sMould pass some law giving us, under the new constitutional provisions, some fair prospect of successfully imtiating a practical rapid transit movement. ‘This, above all other New York measures, should have ro- ceived the earnest consideration of the Legis- lature, and if inaction prevails up to the close of the session the people will regard our present representatives as dishonest or incom- petent. Credit is dueto the citizens who are agi- tating the matter of rapid transit, and there is no doubt of the advantage of all their movements, even if their proceedings do pre- sent some evidences of inharmonious views. The public mind needs to be thoroughly aroused to the importance of the subject and to be kept aroused until a practical result is accomplished. It is unfortunate that the main furor for rapid transit is excited in bad weather, when travel by the horse cars is in- terrupted or terribly trying and incon- venient, and after the Senators and Assembly- men have been elected to the State Legislature. As soon as fine summer weather arrives the discomfort of the horse cars is forgotten, and people lose sight of the great question that ought to be always before their eyes. Our legislative representatives are again chosen betore the interruption of travel returns, and we forget tg inquire into the one all-important poiat—whether they are faithful and competent advocates and supporters of rapid transit. It is to be hoped that the popular movements now going ou will not only not be abandoned during the pleasant weather, but that they will continue to be pressed with vigor. need legislation on the subject, and if we do not secure it at the hands of our present rep- resentatives it is to be hoped that none of them will be sent k, to Albany, at least from this end ot th Potacr.—The An officer ion honse “some- accomplishments on Tuesday last. of the force entered th what under th fi sergeant in charge t tifies, and immediate clab onthe head of a At the same time we | Bravies oF Tux “best | pol: reo in the world’ afforded the citi- zens of New York o specimen of its pro- | ficiency in one of the most useful otf its “2 of liquor,” 2s the | brother officer.

The Riverside Avenue Improvement bill has passed the Assembly and is now in the hands of the Senate, Av attempt is madeon the part of the Comptroller and his allies in the policy of suffocation to defoat it in the repub- lican branch of the Legislature. Its rejection by the Senate would be as injudicious politi. cally as it would be unjust to the large body of taxpayers and citizens interested in its suc- cess, Riverside avenue, as laid out under the act of 1867, was an avenue one hundred feet wide between paralle) lines, Under authority of chapter 850 of the Laws of 1873 the westerly line of the avenue has been changed. This was done so that the avenue could be treated somewhat in the manner of a Park drive, and as itis now laid out it conforms with the natural topography of the land, which greatly increases its beauty, besides lessening the cost of its construction. ‘These changes have suggested the question whether the provisions of the act of 1867 tor the payment of the cost and assessment of the improvement upon the property benefited apply to the avenue 1m ite present shape. The object of the present act is simply to remove such a difficulty, which, if it really exists, is purely technical. It would be sufficient to declare that the law of 1867, which applied to Riverside avenue as originally laid out, should apply equally to Riverside avenue as altered by the law of 1873, were it not that the present constitution seems to forbid legislation in this form. The total cost of the avenue is estimated at one million dollars, one-half of which is to be assessed upon the property benefited. It will not exceed that sum, and contrary state- ments are only made to aid in deteating the bil. Itis untrue that the bill requires the immediate completion of tho work. It is left in the same condition as all other streets and avenues in the city. The object of a contrary statement is apparent. Thr fact is that the bill is a simple act of justice, The Riverside Park and avenue were origi- nally laid out by the Commissioners of the Com tral Park. A very large number of the property owners objected to the improvement on oc count of the assessments it would necessitate; but it was insisted on by Mr. Green and others who now oppose itas an indispensable pore tion ot the general plan of improvement and development adopted jor that section of the island, The land was taken and the assesse ment laid three years ago. The assessments have generally been collected and the property owners now naturally desire to soe an ime provement for which they have been assessed over three million dollars carried out to com- pletion, so that they may begin to reap some of its benefits. Mr. Green, who is now the real opponent of the improvement, would be as warmly in its favor as he ever was if he could still control the work. It remains to be seen whether the republican majority in the Senate will deny this act of justice toa large body of taxpayers for the sake of grati- fying the spleen and malice ot an individual PERSONAL INTELLIGENCE.
