labofs nara 10 prove It's position that Il
majority Of the new Boards of Aldermen
and Assistants are with the Tammany
party, and will adhere to ITS "usagcs, y
Our readers, and the public generally,
know that the Editors Of that paper will
stick at nothing to accomplish political
purposes. lhCr motto Of, ".IPS fair IN
PohitcS" has never been more signalIy
displayed than N their unbushing attempt
to deceive the distant readers of then
paper by claiming - members of the
Boards as thclrpWn! In the city Of y
York 1t is well elough known that hrcn-
ty-one members, dcrcn from the Board of
Aldermen and icnfrom the Board of As
sstants arc decidedly with the people
and in favor of Rrbrm. 1t is not qucs-
tion with us Whether II man is Jackson
or ti-Jackson, hr we have again and
ngaln refused to nix the Presidential
question with oar ward elections. 1t is
sufficient for us tina, We know our men,

the chambers unplcdgcd to "pa,v usa-

list of the members chet, making the
proper distinction ofcauus and anii.cnu-
cas-, which is the tue test after all, and
the onl y one which has been paramount
consideration with the people All can
did men will agree that the revolution in
the complexion of the Boards is signal
and unprecedented victory for the " ork-

mentS with the Courier and Enquirer
Its Editors are dctcrminrd To- claim every
thing. In the Fourth " ard, where they
have sustaincda tremendous defeat, they
say It "rcmalm as It rdS, and III other
Wards, where their caucus candidates
were beaten, and where they assaulted our
candidates with the most unsparlng Il
buSe, they clam the riciorgl This s;o-
ry of theirs may do very we'll to quiet
the fears OF Van Buren,, Amos X Co. a,
a distance; but in Ncw-l ork city every
body, even the most thorough going re-
gcncy paitlMn, acknow Hedges that they
are 6edten-prostdt,d--rOuisd! Even
the BARRIERS of the city ask double price
to shave the elongated countcnances of
the defeated Caucus-mcn. bid.
We understand that Com BARRON will
be placed in command Oft the Navy Yard
at Phladcl phia, a. the successor ofCom.
BANBRIDGE, Instead Of Com. WARRING-
TON: and that the last named officer will
take the place of Com. BARRON at the
Norfolk Navy yard. The scnsbilty
excited by the removal OF Com BuN-
BRIDGE from the lhlladclphia \, Yard
had procured for that gallant officer the
compliment of public dinner by "A large
number of the most respectable citizens
of Philadcl pha, oiaIl parties. 1t is to take
