Look Out for Horace! Honack QGueEELEY’s appearance in the arena as a caudidate for President is one of the most wholesome events that ever hap- pened in our politics, It puts both the great parties on their good behavior, and compels them to nominate first-rate candidates on sound platiorms, Suppose the Republicans were to prove themselves 80 besotted as to nominate Grant, how their masses would desert and move over to join the hosts of the Farmers’ and Mechanics’ Candidate, Suppose the Democrats were to put ap a aan with Copperhead stains on him, and to ‘venture on a platform with Copperhead virus in it, the great body of the Democracy would ai make a New Departure under the lead of the Farmer of Chappaqua. The Republicans will have to nominate gome first-rate man like Gov. PALMER of Hiinois, and the Democrats some first-rate man like WILLIAM 8, GrorsBEck of Ohio, or there will be no hope for either of them, and Farmer Greeey will sweep the field. The next Presidential election promises to be the most interesting in our annals, and Honace Greevey will play a great part in {t, while Tie Sun will sbine for all. TEXAS w abies Taeksaeinrers A Glaring Lapropricty. At the laying of the cornerstone of the new Capitol at Albany, last Saturday, an im- propriety was committed which admits of no excuse but a want of perception of its nature and extent on the part of the persons concerned in it, A private organization, known as the Freemasons, were not merely permitted to be present as spectators, but were invited to perform and did perform their peculiar rites as a part of the public ceremonics of the occasion, We have nothing to say against Masonry as an institution, nor against its symbolic observances ; but that its votarics should be thus officially recognized by our State authorities, is a thing of which all the rest of the community has a rigy’ to complain it Masons were, as they profess to have originally been, bond fide workers in stone and mortar, it would undoubtedly be fitting for them to do something like what they did on Saturday. They, and all the other mechanics whose skill and labor will be employed in erecting the new Capitol, might properly participate in the formal commencement of the building, But it is notorious that they are not magons at all, and that the technical jargon they make use of has only an allegorical meaning. Grand Master ANTHON is @ lawyer, who never did a day’s mason work in his life; and the other Worshipfuls and Most Worshipfuls, who assisted him, aro as innocent as he is of practical experience in the trade. They went through the form of applying the rquare and the level to the stone, but they would probably be puzzled to tell whether it was really well laid or not, notwithstanding their glib declaration that it was all right. The whole concern is secret and quasi-religious in its nature, and it igo gross assumption for it, on account of it namo, to claim a prominent{part in a cere- mony of such general interest a8 the laying of the corner stone of a State Capitol, Besides, there is a strong feeling of oppo sition to Masonry among a large and inilu- entinl class of our people, The Roman Catholic and Episcopal Churches formally condemn it as incons'stent with true religion, and other denominations view it with dis. trust if not with enmity, It was an open ailront to all these citizens to thus conspien ously honor the object of their dishke, It is as if an Orange Lodge should be invited to ass st in laying the cornerstone of a cor poration building in this city, The other faction might well say that this was an in sult to them, and so may the anti-Masone say of the prominenc given to the Masons at Albany. The wholo thing was a blunder, which we hope will never be re just — A Reformed Detective Service, We have frequently directed the attention of our readers to the senselees methods of conducting the police detective service gen erally in vogue in this country, and to the mischievous effects which result. It is there: fore with gratification that we are enabled ak of a reform which has been success fully inaugurated in Boston, by Mr, Eowarp H. Savace, the Chief of Police in that city Mr. SAVAGE very properly saye that the first duty of the police officer is the protec. tion of life and property and the prevention of crime, and that while acting in such ca pacity his character and position should al waya be known to the public, But he be- the important and difficult duty of detecting criminals the power of the officer should be felt rather than seen, and that the mere knowledge of the existe lieves that in ce of ® force which could not be avoided be eause it is unseen, nor corrupted beeaus® it is unknown, must exert an Influence to prc Vent the commission of crime, ‘Therefore instead of surrounding himself with « force of so-called detectives, who are about the best known men in thecity, and on familiar terms with the criminal classes, Mr, SAVAGE detuils hie men for special gerviee from the ranks of the patrolmen, not permanently, but for the time being, as they may be re quired, Men of intelligence are selected for such service, and when the special duty for which aman is detailed is accomplished, he returns to his place in the ranks ; but he has been afforded opportunities to show his ca- pacity if he has any,and where he acquits himsclf creditably he increases his chances for promotion, Of course such a system is calculated to foster ambition in the entire po- lice force, and to increase its general effi- cioney. Mr. SAVAGE has been educating bis force in this manner until he is now in @ position to detail one-half of the entire body of the Boston police on special business, in citizens’ clothes, in the short space of one hour, should the emergency arise to require it; ‘end all of these men would have an intelli- gent idea of the dutics expected of therm. The men when on special service are or- dered to show themselves as little as possi- ble; but if ander the necessity of making an arrest, they are required to hand their prisoner to the first uniformed policeman they mect, as if they were private citizens, and follow him to the statton house for the purpose of making a charge against the party arrested. The consequence ie that thieves never know themeclves to be free from surveillance, and are kept in a coustant state of salutary apprehension. It is to be hoped that the wise and practi- cal measures of Mr. SAVAGE will be imitated in other citios, His aystem is simple, and entails no extra expenditure whatever, If it should be generally adopted, we might not have 40 many wealthy detectives, but there would be better order, fewer robberics, and lesa business transacted between thieves and police officials, while more criminals who now parade our public streets, clothed in gorgeous apparcl, would find their proper places in the penitentiary. piesa testes aEnOO While we share in the triumph which the independent press has just achieved in Ohio in the defeat of Grant and Bay Wann, we confess to some mortification at our failure to secure the nomination of Deacon Ricmarn Saitu of Cincin- nati for Governor, Deacon Suitu is a truly good man, although aflicted with unworthy associat and we fondly cherished the hope that we wight be able to extricate him from these complications and to reise him to an independent position as Governor of that great commonwealth, But we have failed, and the principal reason for our fail- ure we understand to be the dead weight of the wicked partners with whom Deacon Sait has been too long associated in business. The mo- ment the Republicans of Ohio thought of the infidel S$. Romxo Reep, they were so filled with horror that they could not fix their minds upon Deacon Swarn’s nomination with the necessary degree of complacency and confidence, This is & new illustration of the evil of keeping bad company. If we could have bad Deacon Suita as our candidate alove, without any such incum- brances, we have no doubt that we would have been able to nominate him; but Rego and the other wicked men were too much, Let us hope that before another election comes around Dew con Smit may separate himself from their iniquity. Then we shall be able to ran him for Governor with a glorious prospect of success ; d we pledge to him accordingly the affection- ort of Taw Ses which sb for all. —— The opponents of prohibition in Massaclu- setts complain that members of the Legisla- ture who are habitual tipplers themselves, vote for stringent anti-license laws, for the purpose of gaining popularity with tem- perance people, From the muddled char acter of the legislation in regard to the sale of liquor in that State, it would seem probable that there is some foundation for this charge. In May last what is called a beer election was held, the law providing that cities aud towns might vote for the probibition of the of ale and beer. In towns failing to vote, the sale of malt liquors was not prohibited, And now another beer ele tion is authorized for the Ist of July, when towns and cities will have the right to vote on the same question, with the important difference that if they fail to vote the sale of malt liquors ie prohibited, Betwe elections, the Massachusetts 1 ser of becoming hopelessly bewildered, — On Sunday last a cole p beer and be tisin di ed clergyman of pure African type preached to w large congrega- ti ‘Vo those who remember the long and severe struggle in the Episcopal Church in this city to obtain the recognition by the Diocesan Convention of negro panahes, this will appear « woteworthy event, For years the distinguished publicist who now represents our vernment in Vienna labored in vain to »bliterate the distinction between white and col- ored Episcopalians, The conservative Christians, who formed the majority of the annual Conven tions, listened with patience or impatience, as the humor seized them, to the barangucs of Brother Jay, whom they unkindly but very a d to be a firebrand of the most inflammable character, and invariably voted him down, But a few years bave made important changes, Not.only are African parishes cordially ed to Dic rained minister of the race preaches accept in Trinity Chureh, imously declar wel the esan Conventions, but an ably to a large and attentive ion withia the walls of conservative old Trinity time works wor Cree sounts from Washington represent the condition of the President's colt as being critical in the extreme, und it seems probable that the high-bred iminature steed will be cut off in the heyday of its youth, Physie appears to be use- less and Lorse doctors are in vain, Even the careful and faithfully rendered attentions of Brevet Brig.-Gen, Det fail to do the quadru pedany good, Those who accuse Gen, Grant of insensibility will be surprised and gratified to learn that the Adininistration telegrapha di from the prese ment at Long Brauch to know the state of the colt’s health, Acall has been issued signed by Licut Gov.

Fancy Philosopher Gumeter and Gen, Grant travelling about and eddreasing audiences together as rival candidates for the Presidency! We do not believe they would ever be able to live so inti- mately with each other while engaged in this duty as the candidates in Kentucky.
