ALDERMAN TILoU-Ths gentleman is one Of
the most industrious and perseverng magistrates In
our city. He has made great effort to set w. a
police establishment, in the hope of redeemiDg the
credit of his native city. He is justly entitled tc
the good name and fame that he enjoys. have
been acquainted with him over twenty years; and
very high respect for his independence and integi
ty He has no object in view, but the good of the
city. He is pure and honest man, free from pre-
ludice; and by no means violent politician.
trust and hope he will receive the strong and hearty
support of every moral and independent citizen.
In large city, like New York, it would indeed
be surprising if there were not vast many persons
who are interested In preventing the establishment
of we'll regulated police but this class is small ir
comparison to the number who are or ought to be
friendly to order and regulation. The opponents
of the police establishment are well known ant
| the reason of their opposition is evident. Among
the respectable, moral and religious portion of the
citizens, there is but one feeing-and that is decl
| dedly in favor OF a new system of police.
| The present number of police agents, city watch
| men, custom house and private watch, exceeds
400 men, Now, if this force was organized, ii II
impossible that we should be obliged to RECORD
thirteen burgares in one night, as it is well known
occurred during the present month.
