Maitniw T. Baenxan and Br JAMIN F Manrenne. ‘Tho latter is a Repub can, and the + aus no hope of reward or rof punishment from the voters of the city ; but the former is a Democrat, end likely to he a candidate, we understand, for the city Comptrelersh'p at the charter election next year.

There is many a stock of dry goods which, if it could be burnt up, at the prices for which the goods would now be apprnigod, and if the fall amount of insurance could be recovered fex then, would leave the owner # handsome surplus over his indebtedness; and which, by the resumption of specie pay- mente, would be so far reduced in nominal value as to leave the owner insolvent, It is easy to see the temptation which the pros- peet of the speedy restmption of specie pay- ments creates for heavily involved dry goods to this, we en fu vort citi Ailoeomy is ann 0 probebly than Lake Onloriger Lake I had traverked about iniles of its « ‘whea the sppronah of winter compelled the party to returnto Canada, This lake discharges: its waters into Lake {Superior by the Nipigon river, a broad and rapid stream, and is the seventh in number, and possibly the reoond in tize, of the chain of great lakes whieh form so re- markable @ feature in the geography of North America, That the existence of this inland wea should have remained unknown to this time is the moro remarkable, considering how noar ft lies to Lake Superior, As it receives the waters of upward of a dozen considerable rivers, it is not improbable that the system of lakes com. meneing with Lake Ontario may extend mooy Miles further to the north. ——— It is interesting to see in what a Indicrous as well as uufortanate position Gov, Watxen of Virginia and Gov. Sexten, of Tennessee are placed, as well as all who, like them, have ad- vocated what they call a couservative course of action toward those who lately were rebels, for the purpose of securing the latter's votes, Poli- ticians of this kind are hated by the Radicals, and are mistrusted and despised by the Sonthero people and act the part of figureheads with little or no influence. Gov, Wars is to-day more respected in Virginia than Warxen, for the reason (hat the former did not attempt to coaceal his real sentiments. A Virginia gentleman cently remarked to one of our correspondents that, although he had voted for Wankwn, and although he did not like Wetis much more than Prof, Satan, yet when he saw Warxen on various occasions during the campaign sitting on the same platform with Southern ora tors, aud listening placidly to their tn tanicd, fire-eating specchus, he could not but think it a disgrace to the man, This was the price paid by these gentlemen for and th onpleasant insignificance is what Ham- x is coming to in Texas, and Dent in Missis- sippi, should the country be #0 unfortunate us to see them elected. nil Commissioners Bans and Woon deserve the thanks of our citizens for their determined fight in the Board of Edueation in favor of re- duced expenditures, Instead of the $3,400,000 or thereabouts which the Board might by law have appropriated fur the coming year, only $2,500,000 will be used—u saving of nearly 1,000,000. Let us hope that the Democratic Logislatnre next winter will, by repealing the Jaw creating the City College, add the $126,000 annually wasted on that institution to the re- trenchment of Messrs, Saxns and Woop, It will be « popular measure, and it is imperatively de- manded b y consideration of common sense, ‘Tho spirit of irreligion which we have be fore remarked upon as pervading many of our public institutions of learning, seems to have found a distinct expression in the United States Naval Academy at Anvapohs. The regulations of the Academy not only permit but positively require the midshipmen to pursue their studies on Sunday, This, too, is in spite of the remon- strance of the last Board ot Visitors, among whom were Geonox H.

The Brooklya Eugle and Thu Sun have already exposed the frauds of the Canvassers in counting the vote for Sherif! in Kings county. The evidence of these frauds is overwhelming. The Ring, notwithstanding the unauthorized announcement by the Board of Aldermen of the clection of CUNNING. HAM, are beginning to take to the woods The Board of Supervisors—the real County Canyassers, and the men who appointed the Inspectors who have sent in the forged re- turns—give evidence of # want of nerve. They are sending back the altered papers for correction. Let not District Attorney Monnts falter in hie good work, ‘Though the effort to count dp CUNNINGHAM Tony fail, other men who were not clected Lave Been and are to ye counted: in, ‘Take the case of Supervisor ‘Waxsn, printed in Tu Scn of Saturday. He was a candidate for revlection, The Can- vasecrs of the First District of the ‘I'wenty- Becond Ward delivered the returns to the Supervisor, Mx. Watsu, as the law dizeets. When Mr, W u received the returns, Capt. MAL, his Republican opponent, bad twenty qajority; but when the Board of Aldermen pounted them, Mr. Warsi had a majority. An examination of the record showed that twenty votes had Leen knocked fran Capt. Baxv’s column and added to Mr. Waisn’s, Bere is a clear case of fraud. Again: The Brooklyn Common Council yesterday received » communication irom Danien O'Rvi Ly, who wae a candidate tor Bapervisor in the Twelfth Ward, He com. plains thatin the Virst District of that ward he wan defrauded out of 18 votes, but 91 votes being crodited io him by the Can- vassers, Ip support of his complaint he presented affidavits from 109 citizens of the ict who had voted for him, Mr, ae also stated that the ballut-boxes at the polling places were not visible to votors, “and that 1B system of repeating was pra: tiged there in the interest of Mr, Snpaivsy, ‘the opposition candidate, ‘The matter was to the Canvassers. If Mr. O'Ruin1.y been a Bupervisor clect, like Supervisor he might have Lad the pleasure of himself out, or in, a8 he wished, Pi@be Canvassers who clicil the returns af the votes for Sheriff would vot hesitate to dealers, who are amply insured, to be a litule careless about their lights and fires, Tt may be said that this is a horrible sus- picion, And it is, But have we not heard such suspicions in the past, freely coupled with names, some quite conspicuous in the Dusiness world, somewhat #0 in polities, and soeking a pretentious prominence in church matters? 1. is a very great temptation for a very small man. The establishment of the office of Fire Marshal in this city resulted in throwing a flood of light on the subject of insurance. 'The investigations of Fire Marshal Baker established the fact that a very large propor- tion of the fires were intentionally set ; indeed, that the extent and frequency of the crime of arson was greater than had here- tofore been reamed of, and was absolutely appalling! In view of this fact—in view of the much which has been proved, and the more which las been reasonably suspected—would it not be well for the ingurance companies to take extra precautions in regurd to thelr risk: with reference to the prospect of a falling market, which may be produced by the re sumption of specie payments ? sal a Goma A delegation from the Seventh Ward yes: terday presented the Hop, Winuiam M.

I thank you fur the honor ; but I am not City Judge yet, thongh I would much like to be."” ‘These are significant words. Justice Dow:wa’s reputation for honesty and incorruptibility is backed by a fine personal presence and natural Judicial ability, Through the influence of Jus- tices Downina and Keiry the Special Ses- sions has been made @ model Court, Its officers ure obliging and attentive men, of good characters, It is also a working Court. It sometimes disposes of ws many cases in a single week as the General Sessions does in a whole year, As Sheritt O’Batew is about to force Tammany to take up Bixey, the great Prince of the General Order business, in the place of Mr, Kenny, the character of the Spow cial Seasions may be changed; but while Justice Dows2ye holds bis present position it can hardly be reduced to the level of the General Sessions. stico Dowzine is needed in the Court of General Sessions. Compared with him, the present City Judge dwindles to very small propor- tious indeed, Correspondingly ‘small are his chances of resisting this new and powerful aspirant, The steps of Justice Dowztxo for the next two years must be waiched with peculiar nterest, ia aA Tho Brooklyn Canvassers are reapectfully invited to visit the Niuth Ward in this city, and learn bow to alter their returns, Their last job was @ b h, In the Sixth District of the Ninth Ward of this city, the © business with remarkable neato Republican, and Wiis € Costa, Domoorat, Were candidates for the Assoi The throe Canvassers counted the vote on the night of the clection, and Mr. Costa bad a ma- jority, One of the Cauvassors then pocketed the list, and the party separated, The returns bave since then been opened in the Board of Supers visors, ‘Through the application of some ehemi- cal preparation Costa's name has disappeared, and the name of Wa. G, Buroex, plainly written and withont the slightest defacing, appears in its place. Vive corsa, Benors's uame has slipped out of sight, and the name of Costa appears in its stead, This neat little job gives Beaux a very wcceptable majority, It would be remark able if the Board of Supervisors should apply chemical proparation to the doctored returns, and restore the names to their original positions, Will Gioun Monoax, Wanskey Dar, Roppy rie Fasrenan, and other Brooklyn Capyassers, please walk over to the Sixth Dictrict of the Niuta Ward and fivish their education?
