But judging from some things in the late editions of that paper, there is considerable doubt on this point, to say the least, On Saturday, the first paragraph atthe top of the second column of its editorial page was this: “The bills mending the Registry law and provide Ing anfognarde against nutaralization frauds, by kome Atrange epecios of unexpected good ilnck, eneceesful- ly ran the gauntict of the venal Assembly yeswerday, ad have gone to the Governor,” Immedintely after it came thi “The taxfor repairs en the cunale should have been reduced at least two millions, It has been re- duced a bare two handred nf dollars, Iiea Fraud only cond tn character to that perpetrated (de morning by (it Amembly on our eity and ¢ levies.” Jower down in the same column Hows “In the carntral yy he Tammany Udeves at Albany verterday, measutes for th relief of our over,crowd ed streets were, of course, slaughtered."

It was in repudiation of this arro- gant assumption on the part of Great Britain, that our thirt Colonies waged the war of the Revolution, The American doctrine on this subject was first proclaimed in the De. elaration of Independence, and it constitutes: the basis on which our Constitution rests, as well as that whereon stands every Govern: ment in the Western Hemisphere which has thrown off the yoko of Kuropean monarchios Tested by this primordial principle, the soundness of which no genuine American will dispute, neither England nor Spain has the right to rule any spot in this hemisphere for one moment Jonyer than the majority of the home-born inhabitants thereof desire. The flop of their flag for axingle instant beyond this period is a clear usurpation which warrants an uprising of the people to tear it down, 2 Bat it may be said that this is a very dif. ferent question from that of the annexation to this country of portions of the British or Spanish provinces. ‘This is freely conceded ; hor is it proposed to annex them unless by purchase, or in payment of oar claims, or by conquest in honorable war, watil their people have dissolved their connection with foreign rulers, and expressed a wish to unite with this republic, This concession, however, docs not impair the right and duty of our people to extend their active sympathies to the brave Cubans who are struggling to cast off the chains of a forcign despotism ; nor, unless our just claims are otherwise adjusted, will it pre veut our Government at some favorable period in the future from taking so much of the British dominions lying near us as shall be needful to liquidate our long deferred de. mands, The desire to extend our jurisdiction all around us isan inborn and home bred aspi ration of the American mind, It achiev Ste firet triumph in the acquisition of Louisi ana by Jevrenson more than sixty years ago.

According to its habitual lang the majority of our local politicians are thieves and rascals, our citizens are one half fools and the other half villains, and the only possible way of preserving us from the doom of Sodom and Gomorral: is to take our affairs out of our hands and place them in charge of the lawmakers who are annually sent to Albany from the purer portions of tho Btate. How these latter gentlemen have performed the task thus imposed upon them, we all know only too well, hoy have ere ated commissions for the management of our police, our ype department, our streets, our wharves 4ind piers, our almshouses, and MFthing else of that sort that they could y hold of ; and we believe they have ey harbored the gigantic project of abolishing cll our elective offices, and appointing one single commission over us instead, Now, we could stand this sort of thing tol ‘erably well, if we could be sure tyat our A} bany rulers were ag superior to the native article as the 7irivune all aloug has been in able to put some kind of check upon the ex travagance and mismanagemont under which we now groan. — A New Ei ian the Case of Mr. Young. We pointed out on Saturday that there was no neceasity to oblige the Zrvune to part with its Managing Editor on account of his betrayal ot his trust in furnishing the news Lelonging: to the Associated Press to one of his two daily papers in Philadelphia. We showed that the rules of tho Association did not absolutely require the dismissal of Mr. Youno, or anything more than that he should be reprimanded. In volunteering to do this—something that his own counsel had not done, and something, we dare say, which had never occurred even to the Tri bune men themeclves—we think we evineed wig vus and forgiving disposition toward the young man who had been misappropri- ating our property. We showed how he mijrht remain the practical head—the Man aging Editor—of a grent and leading daily journal, devoted mainly to the inculeation of moral idens, We felt proud of our plan, be. cause we flattered ourselves that it was origi- ial and unique. It scemed to us a happy thonght, because if, upon experiment, Mr. Youna should be found to have abandoned his practice of betraying his trust, the same great journal which advocates moral reform would have in the eare of ite Managing Edi- tor a conspicuous {lustration of the prac tieability of reformat Wo regret to find that a further in pat gra. tion of the case leaves but little hope that our plan can be adopted. It is only for the first off that the rules of the Associated Pross provide that the culprit may be let off with a reprimand; and it is charged that Mr. Youno's offences have been numerous, When first detected, he undertook to bam boovle Mr, SiMONTON, the agent of the Asso. ciation, by resorting to various subterfuges, and kept on offending, For the second offence thero is no alternative punishment; the rulos are peremptory, and require the dismis sal of the offender. We sce no way, thero- fore, that Mr. Youna can remain the Man. aging Editor of the Tribune, and the Zridune romain a partner of the Associated Pross, Will the Vribune withdraw from the Association for the sake of retaining Mr. Youno?t We are not sure that it will not. Mr. Youn Las evinced a good deal of nowspa per talent in his ability to conduct three daily papers—two in Philadelphia and one in ew York—at tho samo time, His extreme youth—only 27—is a strong point M his fa vor, because it renders it probable that he will be ablo to eerve as Managing Editor many years longer. Tho 7ridune has adopted the plan—at least in the case of Mr. Gnevs y—of insuring the lives of its prin- n, for a large sum, for the benefit of its stockholders, Mr, Youna’s life could be permanently insured now ata much lower rate than a much older man's, Then if the Zrivune should withdraw from the Associated Press, there would be no dan gerof Mr, Youno's ever again misappropria- ting the news of tho Association, because he would not havo it to misappropriate. If the Trine people should still be afraid of his mis: appropriating their own news, might they not avoid this danger by uniting his two Phila delphia papers with their own, and having all threo published by one concern t To guard eyainst the danger of Mr. Youna's privately offering the influence of the Tribune for sale, it might be pablicly offered in an advertisoment, by the Tribune itself, with directions to apply to some other nian in the office, Even if it should cost the Tribune two handred thousand dollars per annum to pret its news independently of the Associated Press, it would be practicable to save that amount by cutting off unnecessary outlays made uader Mr, Youna’s editorship, when the expenditures ran up to @ million dollans in a single year, A monkey cannot imitate a man bettor than Mr, Young imitates Mr. Giuircenny's stylo of composition; and there is no likeli hood that the Z'riune can ever get any one Ise to do it ao well, As to Mr, Youna's charge against Mr, Sty CLAIR that he is an old fogy, why docs not Mr, Stxciam sue him for libel? Or if he docen’t want todo that, lot him publish a eard denying that he is an old fogy, Everybody will bel eve him, If Mr, Youna should be compelled finally to retire from the 7'rijune, we consolo our. selves with the reflection that he will have the hundred thousand dollars—if he gets it— THE for hich ho has ued Tn@ Bex, to live on, Desides his two daily papers in Philadelphia, We have now done nll that we can think of to keep Mr. Yorsa inthe Triiune, If Mr. Greniny deems it inconsistent with his own reputation to remain if{Mr. Youra does, why he can himself withdraw, become tho Rage of Chappaqua, and when not represent. ing his country at geome foreign Court, write powe [ul articles, over his own signature, for the columns of Tre St and for renders ns numerous as the sands on the shores of the fe ‘ —— The Trenton State Gazette publ mean attack on th Fo far us to abuse shes a very » Hon, Horace Grewen: ne Sow for holding h public office, —— The Republican General Committer, which holds its sessions at the corner of Brow way and Twenty-second street, under the Presidency of the lion.

With regard to seven of these ten districts, the — action was short, sharp, and decisive. ‘The special commitice which bad been ay pointed to investigate them recomended that the claim of the contestants should be rejected, and that the sitting members should be declared entitled to their weats, This was adopted by a handsome majority, the aitting members in quostion, some forty in outaber, all unanimously voting to retain their places. No opportunity was given the con testants to defend their claim, In the rem co districts the sitting members were and on ¢ adopted for a sociati wing all outs f was ONZanmauion of the district ase Among the gentlemen thus expelled as Norway Strartoy, Senator Laroern, Conneilman Ponies, and Samet Cayton. The reason for turning them out seemed to be that in polot af opinion and per- sonal preferences they were with the majority of this At this rate it will be unanimity of feeling in the General Committee, but the strength of the party in the city will be diminished, We remember when the policy of the Massachusetts Democrats waa to keep their party as stall as practicable, in order that there ¢ fewer men to hold the Federal offices in It looks as though the Twenty-sccond street Republicans were diaposed to adopt a simi- lar line of action, were ane ot entirely in unison ral Cornmittee, vary to secure entire . =i Tho Cincinnati Gazeite denies that it de. fonds Joun Russet Yousa on the immoral ground that it is right to 1 the Associated Press, This is creditable to that otherwise unprincipled paper. — Although the formal completion of the Pacific Railroad did not take place on Saturday, A been expected, but was postponed till to- day, the celebration of the event in soveral places was not on that account delayed. At Spring- field, Mass., the entire force of workmen of Mason's car manufactory formed a procession, headed by the Armory band and accompanied by the Union Battery, and marched from the shops of the Company through the principal streets of the dity, each man bearing some tool or imple- ment of his trade, There were also banners Dearing “Our cars unite the Atlantic and Pa- cifie;” “Four hundred car builders celebrate (ieopening of the Pucifle Railroad ;” “For San cisco, connecting with ferry to China," &c. At Philadelphia, fogs were displayed from both public and private buildings, and the Commercial Exchange sent a congratulitory des- patch by telegraph to the Merchants’ Exchange of San Francisco. More, fortunately, the news of the postponement was received in time to pre- vent the intended solemnitics, To-day at noon, Lowever, the Chamber of Commerce will send its congratulations to San Francisco, and at 1 o'clock the services appointed for Saturday will be held at Trinity Chureh, ee Many of the newspapers are praising Maj Gen, Hina Wanner on occasion of his up- pointment as Commissioner of the Pacific Rail- road. ‘They say, what they think and fecl, that the General is a very smart man and a very good fellow, We shall not dispute them; but there is one thing for which wo can never forgive Gen, Watonipae, It was through his moans that the Hon, Horen Gneruer lost the appointment of Minister to England, ema Among the fashionable intelligence in that wellinformed and accurate journal, Marper's Duear, we find the following interesting state- ments “The English lords are becoming more apprecia- tive of American beouty and cleverness, A few days since the Rey, Dr, ADams's church, Madison square, was crowded with the beauty, wealth, and worth of that ‘Nothing-to- Wear’ region, to witness the pup tials of Mr Maun®, fon of Lord Maury, and nephew of the Duke of ALTHonr, and Miss Manin Gitrawnr, @ charming and accomplished lady, well known ju the higher circles of New York society,.”” This may be all right, and we sincerely trust it ; but, unfortunately, a careful search through most authentic records of the British peerage tu shows that there is no Lord Macey and no Duke of Avruone in all the United Kingdom. How then can the marriage of a relative of those im- aginary noblemen be taken as proving that the appreciation of English lords for the beauty and wit of American women is on the increase ? gaa Twelve years ago no horse cars were al- lowed to run on Sundays in Brooklyn, The work+ ing people were dissatistied, and began an agitas tion which resulted in a repeal of the odions law, ‘Three years ago no street cars were run in Phila- delphia on Sundays, The workingmen insisted on a change, and the wealthy chureh members strenuously upheld the restriction, So bitter was the fight that it was finally carried into the Penn- sylvania Legislature, where a law was passed which swept away the lust mark of bigotry, and gave the working classes tho relief they desired, In view of these precedents, we can hardly ac- count for the bitter war now being waged over this matter in Newark, N, Nowark is one of the first manufacturing cities in the United States, A vast majority of its inhabitants are laboring mon, @ large percentage of whom are Germui They earnestly desire travelling fucil- ities on Sunday, but thus far their wishes have beon disregarded, Tho railroad companies aro anaious to comply with their wishes, but are Harred out by a municipal ordinance forbidding The churehe goers, expecially those owning horses and care riages, seem bitterly opposed to the repeal of thy law. We may excopt the Jews and Seventh-day Buptists, who probably favor the working classes, The agitation has raged in Newark for some two years, Now, light is dawning, The Common Couneil has steadily refused to repeal the law; but on Friday evening last the Bourd of Alder- men, by @ vote of 15 to 11, passed a resolution re- turning the repealing ordinance to 4 Committee, with instructions to add @ section submitting te the running of cars on the SUN, MUNDAY, the question to the people. Whether or not not this section eventually passes the Newark Com- mon Council, the time cannot be far distant when New Jorsey will follow the load of New York and Pennsylvania in wiping out this vestige of religions intolerance, Meanwhile, we call upon the editors of the wide-awuke Newark Courter end kindred sheets to vigorously uphold the demands of the industrial comunity on this subject. ———— When the yatrolmen of the Metropolitan Police petitioned for an increase of their salaries, the Commissioners set their faces ayainst the men; and when the sergeants, captains, and in- spectors held a mvcting to urge the Legislature to increase thoir salarica, the proceeding was disapproved by General Order, The Le having increased the annual salaries of th Commissioners to $12,507 each, will the Board disapprove their action?
