City Reform.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD.
notice in the columns Of your valuable journal
of this morning, q call made to the taxpayers Of
our city to sign petition to the Assembly of the
State requesting that the Office of Assessor in the
Street department Of this city be made a salaried
office. This is an excellent move; but, while upon
the subject Of reformation in regard to the curtail
ment Of the unnecessary expenses our taxpayers
are put to, why would it not be as well to get up
similar petition in regard to the Office Of Coroner Of
the city and county Of New York! That Office,
last year. yielded to its favored incumbent the sn az
sum of $4,000 for his years services and this year
our city will, in all probability, have to pay him
one or two thousands more. There is no need Of
this scandalous waste of the public funds There
are plenty of men Of high reputation in the medical
faculty that would gladly undertake to perform the
duties of that Office for $500, or even less, per
annum BY using the great influence you can exert
for the furtherance of this and kindred objects for
the public welfare, you will merit and receive the
deserts of public benefactor.

IMPORTANT CoSvESTIoNs-RouGEE EFT NoIR. Two
important conventions will be held in the beginning
Of next month, the speeches and declarations con-
nected with which will exercise an important in
fuence public affairs in this country. The first
is the abolition convention, which is to be held at
Syracuse in this State; and the other is the
sion convention, which will be held about the same
time in Charleston. The anti-savery convention has
generally celebrated its anniversaries in this city
but its next, which il the seventeenth eighteenth
will be held, in consequence Of the difficulty fpro
curing suitable building in this metropolis, in the
infected district Of Western New ork formerly the
headquarters Of anti-masonry, and now of anti
slavery. We allude to Syracuse and the surround
ing country. We have made arrangements to give
full and interesting reports daily of the proceedings
of both Of these conventions-the in Charleston,
South Carolina and the other in Syracuse, Western

TeIsgrnphic summary-Troubie with
Mexico.

Oar special telegraphic despatch from Washing
Bon informs us that Mexico has complained of In
dian aggressons, murders, and robberies, on the
Mexican frontier, and demands the immediate in
reference of the United States.
We are not surprised that Mexico has made this
Ssrmal complaint to the United States that the
obligations of the treaty of Guadalupe lhdago, in
relation to the defence of the Mexican frontier by
us from the Camanche and other border savages,
have not been fulfilled. 1t should have been expect
ed. The neglect Of the government Of the United
states has been shameful.
The present administration seeks to excuse
itself, on the ground that Congress did not
make adequate appropriations to enable it TO
send troops there, and did not increase the
army This excuse will not be satisfactory.
Rather than violate the pghted faith and honor Of
the nation to Mexico, every officer and soldier on
the Atlantic frontier, and in the interior OF the
Statee, might have been sent thither, the COM
nanding general Of The army included. There
are scores Of officers, doing little practical
vice, who could be despatched there forthwith.
The mere staff at Washington would make quite
respectable corps of themselves-we mean those
employed in duties merely Deutschland military
duties the frontier would be less derogatory and
mere useful
five remember rightly, the clause Of the treaty
containing this pledge Of defence was objected to
BY many Senators. We recollect Judge Douglas,
Of Illinois, moved to strike cut this clause, and
Hged the vast Of expense of fulfilling it, if not the
mpossibili;y Of restraining horde Of 10000 Ca
nancle and other savage warriors. There is a
slause, also, by which the United States binds
hself 10 compel the Indians to restore all the Mexi-
held in captivity. The present state Of Affairs
shows the sa gacity of those Senator's who opposed
these clauses, several Of whom voted against the
treaty on account Of them.

REVOLUTION AMONG THE PErncoArs.-The Ia
dies are on the skirts Of reform, a reform Of
skirts. Since Amin Bey came to this country, they
have talked much Of Turkish trousers and short
robes. Two ladies have promenaded Broadway re-
Gently, in this Eastern style. Some, more daring,
have gone alitle further. They have taken to the
frockeoa; and pantaloons. Mrs. kemble, two
years ago, set the example, on horseback, which
has been followed by Mss Boomer Of Seneca Falls
and others. Mrs. Swisshelm jumps into this style,
also. In Syracuse II is quite the rage; and in fact
in several parts Of the country ladies of some dis
tinction have put foot forward in this reform,
which transforms the female appearance completely
The question naturally arises, if these steps in
this new evidence Of progress are to be continued,
what is to become Of the cid east of petticoats !!
We suggest that nothing better can be done than
to catch the handles throughout the country, and
in Broadway particularly, and invest them with the
old robes Of prerogatiye. They will cut more Of a
swell than ever, in the furbelows and founces Of
the ladies.

0Ae Cotton Power OF the south, and the
Political Power OF the North.

Northern political presumption and fanaticlsm
have awakened the cotton power Of the South to
protect itself and its privileges; and the day is ap
preaching when the world will know the extent Of
that power, which men are seeking to disturb and
overthrow by unhallowed political agitation, AID
by losing sight Of the great national questions Of
tAe dsy-runnns only after mere sectional theory,
ending in total disruption of the republic The
value Of the cotton crop # the United states is
s~s kppdrod RiIt,,ts # dollars annually. This Is
power which even the manufacturing interest Of New
England has not the temorty to attack even though
thc principles Of public economy may assure New
Bedford theorists, and other Aes England theorists,
that they have all the cotton they want, and at
low prices even though the South should refuse to
ship the raw staple 10 the northern cities. All the
arguments Of the New Bedford Mercury, sound ~
they may be general principles, are not reliable
