E The NEWS From EUROPE wears
pacific aspect. In Germany, affairs have
taken precisely the turn we expected.
Prussia has finally given in. How far the
Government are bent on peace, no matter
what the conditions, may be understood
from the propagation of the Diet the instant
it began to oppose the plan of settlement
agreed on with Austria. We think that
there is little doubt that the people will
prove submissive. The danger of War;
never very GREATS reuced to the barest
possibility, if not totally removed.
Of course this intelligence has produced
an improvement in the markets Of England.
1t will not be without similar effect here,

PRIMARY Elections.

The Wings of our City are called to
meet in their several Wards at various
hours of this day and evening to choose
Delegates to their Senior and Young Mems
General Committees for the ensuing year
also Ward Committees.-Wc shall not ex-
hort them to heed the summons, for we
promised, when urging them to attend the
Primary Meetings to elect Nominating
Committees last Fall, never to do so again
until some means of securing fair play and
honest voting at these meetings had been
adopted. This has not yet been done, and
we see no prospect that it will be. 1t was
STAYED of in October, because it would in
terfere with the cut-and- dried arrangements
for selecting candidates in the various
Wards; and now it has been thrown over
again, in defiance of strenuous efforts in the
General and Executive Committees to OBJ
tain prompt and efficient action in behalf of
the Rights of the Masses. OF course, the
elections of to-day will be just about the
same kind of farces that we have seen
enacted at intervals for some time past
each little knot of selfish schemers car
rying their Ward unless encountered
by another squad equally selfish and
even more INSCRIPTIONS. The same set
of voters will be used to carry two
or three Wards, and the clique which
includes the most office holders and con-
tractors will pretty surely prevail, unless
confronted by another more desperate and
willing to spend more money. Nine-tenths
of the Wings of our City will not go near
the Polls, regarding the election as farce,
and there will probably be more votes cast
throughout the City by Loco-Focos than
by Wings. Some good men will of course
be elected-the rival cliques must put these
on their respective tickets for the look of
the thing; but to say that the result will
prove anything but the superior activity of
the successful wire-pullers would be to In
dulge in very foolish misrepresentation.
Electors of New FORK we must have
Law to regulate, protect and purify Pri-
mary Elections 1t cannot be too stringent
in its provisions nor passed too promptly.
He who attempts to vote at any such Elec-
ton at any poll where he is not legal
voter, or to vote more than once, or to vote
at the election of any other than his own
party, is robbing other men of their rights,
and ought to be dealt with accordingly.
When shall the law declare and enforce
this truth ? Let us urge the honest men of
all parties in our new Legislature-and
they will very likely be majority-to
prohibit and punish the corruption now
rife in our Primary Elections.

Phe Gns Contrnc, Agnin.


Our article on Saturday was too late in
one sense, the Board of Assistant Alder
men having voted on the evening previous
in perfect compliance with the arrange
ments of the Gas Company. So far as the
Common Council is concerned, the wrongis
then accomplished, the bargain closed and
the parties no doubt ready to fulfil its pc
culiar conditions.
But, before this corrupt and outrageous
contract becomes obligatory on the City, it
must receive the approval of the Mayor.
We trust that such an approval may never
be given. We cannot think that Mr..
Woodruff will allow such an act to mark
the close of his term of office. And we
call upon him, as he values the rights of the
City and the approval of his constituents,
to brand the project with his veto. A firm
and decided Message from him, stating
clearly the reasons why, as Chief Magis-
trate of the City, he cannot be a party to
transaction of such nature would dis
sipate the large majority which the Gas
Company have procured in the Common
Council, and which has forced the affair
through that body with such remarkable
speed.
The votes on this contract in the Com
mon Council deserve greater prominence
than they have received in the official pub
LEGATION of the proceedings. Here they
are: let the names be noted:
