McElrath, in the case Of the Tribune, had not
the conscience to participate or share in the

trated In the Common Council, while the feast
ings, the fetes, the "tea-room,'' and the inordi-
nate passion for "canvass back ducks" and
that delicious sort of game called "timber-
doodes," ouigo woodcock, have actually already
placed the city treasury in "rather a delicate
fix" The Corporation have not long to live, and

Mayor will say in relation to the printing and
stationery of the present board. "We shall see

Great Meeting In New York-Sympathy fol
the French Rcv0lu lion


A public meeting of the people of this metro
polls to express their sympathy for the great re-
volution recently achieved in France, is to be
held this afternoon in the Park, at which the
Mayor of the city will preside.
During the last week or ten days, number of
preliminary meetings have been held by various
classes of the people, and all creeds, expressive
of the same feeling towards the French revolu-
ton. The meeting to-day will embrace the
whole population of New York, of all classes and
all parties. without any distinction of creed,
birth, politics or race. 1t will be one of the
greatest and most sublime spectaces of public
meeting, that probably ever took place in this
country. 1t is only the beginning of public
meetings throughout the republic. Thus far the
revolution in France has been hailed with en-
thuslasm and delight, with some few and incon-
siderable exceptions, those exceptions being a
single journal in New Bedford, the National In.
telligencsr at Washington, and portion of the
United States Senate. The people, however, in
the enthusiasm of the moment, will overcome
all obstacles, and strong hope is entertained
that it will succeed, in spite of the fears of even
The friends of republicanism.
full report of this great meeting will be con-
tanned IN the columns of the Herald tomorrow,
in time to be transmitted to any part of Europe,
by the steamer which sails from Boston for Ii.
verpool, on Wednesday. The Herald for Europe
will also contain resume of these events, in the
French language.

SCENES DURING THE THREE DAYS IN PARIS -
We give to-day, very interesting description of
the recent three days in Paris, from the pen Of
distinguished literary man, well known in this
country, Peter Farley, IS. G.. Goodrich, OF Bos-
ton This gentleman describes, in the most
graphic language, the scenes which he himself saw
in Paris, in the course of his perambulations,
during the three days Itisintensely interesting,
and will be read with great delight. Mr.. Good
rich, or Peter Farley, has resided in Paris for
several years. About year ago we saw hun
among the presentations at the Tuileries, and
also at the grand ball, in the midst of scenes
somewhat different from those which he de-
scribes in HIS letter.
Another interesting scene which we give, is
the last day in the dofunct Chamber of Deputies,
translated from Paris journal. This has not
been given before, with any degree of accuracy
or fullness. 1t will be read with thrilling Inte-
rest.

the work of decapitation was going on amongst
the ofice-holders who remained in under the
former Corporation; and week after week, and
month after month have now expired, and yet
we look in vain for the contamination of those
glorious reforms so barefacedy and impudent-
ly thrust forward by the willy politicians of the
Common Council, and made the subject of grave
imposition upon Mayor Brady, to parade for effect
in his inaugural message.
Now, on casting our eyes back, and looking
in all directions for any decent simultaneously
one redeeming act-that could justify this body
of imbsciles in again seeking the SURFACES
of the insulted citizens of New York,
we are sadly at a loss to find out
some one "oasis in the DESERT" Of their
culpabe and shameful recklessness of any
thing pertaining to the advantage of our citi-
zens. The state of the lamps Is a matter Of
nightly complaint-with bad oil, bad gas, and
even little OF either--as these lamps are some
times put out, as early an eleven o'clock at night.
The streets, the very sewerage of which they
attempt to make boast, and for which the taxes
have been SO enormous-the Croton itself-ihe
police system; in word, oil the recommends
tons in the message, have been treated with
the last week in March, Is4S. But there is
one item that seemed to have, in particular,
stricken the consclences of our scrupulous city
Legislators, viz: that naughty, enormous, and
" extYavagant" sum Of ss26,6l5 ~, for printing
Alderman McElrath, on reading this item, ran
from it, we are told, as one laboring under n.y.
drophobia would from sight of the Falls of Nj
agara. But veritable Alderman, pious Alder
man, Fourierite Alderman McElrath, had no
sooner taken his place in the Board, than out OF
'pure regard" for Horace Greeley-aot, of course,
for himself-hc secures the fat printing job, with
the dressings, the parings, and the numberlcssd

Of course, the most rigid economy is observ-
