The keepere have unchained the tiger; but he refuses to return within the bars when they call him back. The magicians Lave raised the devil; but th will not down at their bidding In 0 word, the repeaters have tasted spoils and plunder, and even office, and well will it be for their whilom masters if they do not now turn aud rend them, Indeed, they have already torn one or (vo of them, giving: them siriking tokens of their boldness, rapa exy, and power, But why dwell upon the facts? ‘They are patent to all, and rng through the land We do not present them in a partisan as. peet, for wo do not regard cheating at elec tione ne exclusively a Democrat But here, in this and the adjoining Democrat ¢ city, where this foe of free institutions and Trepresentotive government stalks abroad at noonday, and where all authority and pow er ig now or soon be under the exclusive control of the Democratic party, good citi gens of all parties demand that these male. factors shall Le brought to condign punish “nent.

But is there any reason to enpposo that if the existing law remains anexeeuted, and practially asifit had never been enacted, newer and more etringent etatates will be enforced | Here is a law apnlicable to the offnes whieh it is des'red to snppr an; yet fier year it ## bolilly it ay systematically wily disobeyed by the followers of Brrenam Youso, and the inability of the United States Government tocarry it into foree rafully proclaimed.

When that, has been done, it to the mi are needed, Congress might enact bills by the million, and they would amount to nothings bat waste printing if they secured ne vater respect and observance than the etatute which we lave quoted.

Ttis not within the linits of human eapacity to he at tho same time the best possible Strect Com- missioner, the beat possible Senator, and the best possible Supervisor, or to fill any other sr of other offices in the best possible manner, Yet all this we see attempted by one individual here in this &ty, and his ox ample is followed at a respectful distance by mo or less humble imitators, ‘The practice is wrong, and should be stopped. The tax- payers of this city pay out enongh money to have the entire services of a whole man in each department of the public service, and they onght not to be put off with emall frac. tions instead. Let the Governor propose his bill, and let our Demoeratie Legislature make it a law as soon as possible, Win Abraham O. Hail Take a New Oath of Ollice t At the recent charter election, Mr. Anna. nam O. Hann, by a preconcerted frand and trick, received some sixty-five thousand bal- lots for the office of Mayor of the city of New York, being an overwhelming majority of the whole nuuber. No notice of there Leing any occasion for electing: a Mayor was publicly given; but, on the contrary, it was generally supposed that when Mr. ILALL was elected to the office last year it was for the full term of tivo years, so that no election was necessary this Fall. Nevertheless, tho ballots were cast ao we bave mentioned, and the result duly canvassed and declared by the Board of Canvassers. Whether Mr, HAL was a party to the fraud or not, the fact is indisputable that he stands apparently before the public as Mayor clect for two yeark to come.
