The mak ing of a plan for the city was intrusted originally to a commission of very worthy citizens. In their report they stated that they had reserved but few spaces for parks because New York has in its rivers and its gardens so much room for recreation that more was not needed. Now, so far from having an amplitude of pleasure grounds, there are thousands that cannot afford fresh air and sunshine. It is easy to say our predecessors were fools, but what will our successors say of us? +o A PRAGMATIC SANCTION. the refusal of the Stock Exchange to list the new issue of municipal bonds the public is treated to a new illustration of what happens when any man or set of men is intrusted with a considerable measure of uncontrolled power. In this case the! Exchange actually undertakes to boyeott $60,000,- 600 worth of city bonds because the contract for printing the bonds was not awarded subject to. the dictation of the Exchange instead of the law of the State. It is not denied that the contract for the printing was awarded to the lowest bidder, and that the saving to the publie purse by the rejection of the higher bid was considerable, Nevertheless, the Exchange asserts the right to say who shall print the bonds that are placed upon its list, and their authority seems indisputable. | Thus the city faces a local pragmatic sanction. Fortunately it matters little whether the bonds are listed or not. New York is too big to be wagged by the Stock Exchange. $>—_—_—_—_ FROM OLD TO NEW.
