The bill provides, for example, that the procedure shall be assimilated in all the divisions so far as is possible ; that the High Court shall be empowered to transfor business from one division to another; and that matters may be referred to referees. But the power of rogulating the procedure of the Court is for the most part left entirely to the Judges, pete eee tet Mayor O'HALL hung all his banners on the outer wall yesterday in honor of the new era of municipal rights, which began with the ope- ration of the Twexp charter. this era consists in O'Haxt’s being obliged to ap- point eight Republicans upon Commissions which rightfully belonged to the Democratic party.

Assuming that this information is correct, and that the Prosident ions have finally paid the Hudson River Railroad Company for transporting them from New York to Troy and back, the next question is, Why did they refuse to pay Con- ductor Stevens on their way up the river on Thursday night? Was it because they then supposed they had an official right to Or was it because, in changing their clothes for the journey, they had left their money at home by accident? If the former was the reason, it is encourag- ing to find that reflection brought them to the determination to pay their passage like If the latter, we can imagine that they borrowed at Troy the funds which they had failed to take with them, and thus became able to pay for their tickets. In either case, it is agreeable to be told that they paid at last; but it is unpleasant to reflect that such # ridiculous complication occurred when the President was on busi- nees 80 solemn as attending the funeral of In this form this pee was Aa feiated in all mowepapers and pamphlets previous iv the We venture to say that every member of the Senate and Assembly enppodod the section etand in thisehape when they voted for it; and we have no doubi it @id so stand.

Hate of the facts raises tho serious inquiry, When wes this material alteration made, who made it, and how and why was it done?
