The City Candidates.
We ware among those who struggled early
.s,nsstly and sseadfastly for the UsIPoRM Dis
rR,cr srsrrx Of electing Senators and Members
Of Assembly. Among the advantages OF this 'ys
tam are simplicity, directness, clearer response
b,l,tv ON the part of the Representatives with
GREATER independence on that Of the People. hrh
emo our City Elections have been blind games Of
chance. no far a. the characters Of the nominees
ware concerned notorious swindler or counter
ticket received az Regular Democratic could
hardly fail to be elected when the party claiming
TO be Democrats bad its usual strong majority
We trust it will be different hereafter we
tross that character and personal fitness will
h.ocefortb form important and often controlling ele
rsnts In our Elections Of Legislators. He who
,.,;r.. 20 the high function Of making or changing
,hsl.vs sboud have frst shown himself one who
oh.vs and rsverences laws faithful, loyal exem-
plsry citizen. And such conditions rtH be exaeted
Il was remarked last T all by prominent Loco
Foco, in reference to the Tammsny assembly TIC
ket which he voted for with two or three exceP'
t;ons that no man who looked at the list IN igno'
rance Of iss destination could safely guess whether
il was made up for the Legislature or the Peniten-
tiary This was rather sharp, for part OF the can
didates on that ticket were good men others quite
otherwise. And no man will say that all the six or
eight who have contrived TO get renomina'ed'
either for Senate or Assembly. are of the better
class, though some Of them are 30. But we have
faith in ths discernment Of the People.
In tho Twelfth Ward, however, avery bold ex-
pertinent has been made on the strength OF party
ties. Mr. Morgan L. Mott, the Loco Foco candi'
date for Assembly, was the Keeper of the City Pen
itentiary on Blackwelrs Island last year. when
from that Penitentiary large body Of prisoners
were taken of, during the night before Election
brought to and distributed around our City on pur
pose TO vote the Loco Foco ticket next day. 81

Grand Jury which met directly after the outrage
