The OFFICE OF CoRoSER.-In yesterday
HERALD, we published, in full, the report of the
Committee Of the Board of Supervisors, to whom
was referred certain charges that were publicly
made against D.. Geer, the present Coroner of the
city and county Of New York which contained de-
velopements of a most startling character. From
this report, it is clear, whether DIR. Geer was cog
infant of them OF not, that a great deal Of fraud
and corruption has been practised in the Cor
Office, within few years past. Proof has been
adduced that irquests have been held unnecess,.
rily, that money has been drawn from the city
treasury for inquests that never we're held, aud
that there has been cslluson between parties in the
Coroner's Office and understrsppers in the public
institutions, By which large sums of money have
been received, and by which the city treasury has
been literally pundered and our tax payers robbe
This report proves, most conclusively, that our
whole coroner system needs reform, and our people
should at demand that it be so purified that no
more corruption can be practised.
We per:eive that this subject has occupied the
attention Of tie Common Coun ell which By the
way, on the score Of honesty and virtue, has very
little TO boast Of and it is proposed tina, the law
shall be changed, so that, instead Of ore coroner
the city and county shall be provided With fJur-one
Tor each Senatorial district This would certainly
be decided improvement on the present system
and would, ,oa certain extent, prevent pecua,ion
and corruption, to say nothing of perjury; bat i,
does not go far enough. II would be much better,
In our opinion, TO invest the captains Of police With
power to hold inquefts within the boundaries of
their respective wards, aud to make ii their
duty to DO SO. The additional trouble would net
be Of much account, and VIC are very certain tina.
the police captains would not make any objec.
titn 70 perform this slight duty II this plan
should be ohjectionstle-and We really canrot see
any reason why il should be-a coroner might be
elected for each ward, in the same way as we elect
an alderman or OF assistan, alderman. Either plan
would DO awsy with the GENERALIZATION or eonsoli-
dsticn which marks he present system, and would
make more public the inquests that might be held
As il is, the proceedings Of Tire Coroner are trans.
acte in a hole and corner way, and IN a very OBJ
scure manner ard the putlis knox nothing, or
little or nothing, Of them. This should not be the
case. The Coroner is much public officer a.
the Mayor, ard bis ofcial conduct and proceedings
should he a. open to the public a. those of tho
Mayer, or any other officer under our municipal
government
We con mend these views TO the attention % the
Common Council, and to the members elect Of the
next Legislature, from this city. The subjec. de-
manis prompt attention, and VIC hope and trus.
the reform which the report Of the Committee Of
the Rosrd OF supervisors proves is so necessary, will
be carried into eject at early day ss possible
Either let The police captains be coroners, let
elect one for each ward

Summary OF News.

The most recent information respecting the cleo
ton in this State ties the parties in the Assembly,
and gives the wings a small majority in the Sc
nate. Which side viii have control OF the Canal
Boarl is still matter of doubt The returns from
Massachusetts, lock bad for the whigs-very bad.
Indeed the result of the present elections, in va
rious States, are anything else than fattering for
the prospects Of that party. No wonder that Mr..
Benedict. of Oneida county, proposes that the free
soil wings shall withdraw from the silver grays,
and Sc. up new platform. At the present day
she titles of whig ami democrat are but little
than idle words, and cannot be properly construed
as implying reverence for The constitution and the
laws The old parties are so completely split into
factions and clques, that the ancient landmarks
have been entirely lost sight Of 1.-THE Of the
people wish in future, to know what the politicians
are driving at, it viii De necessary for them to d.
vide on the great national issue of Union or Dis
union. These terms viii be well understood, and
under the banner Of the one or the other the va
rious factions will have to marshal their forces,
and that before great while.
The news from Mexico, to be found in another
column, has three features Of interest or i'm
Ior;ance. The British Minister had had several
interviews with the Mexican gevernm ant, which
resulted in the detention Of the English mail steamer
till second courier from the city Of Mexico had
reached Vera Cruz The interviews were relative
to the debt due English subjects. Another feature
ia the fear entertained Of the disnemberment ofths
Mexican republic, and the loss OF the States Dor.
dering on Texas, New Mexico, and California.
We have received intelligence from Washington
that Mr. Webster Is about 70 leave the cabinet
We have suspected for some time past It's to be
hoped, however, that the Cuban difficulty will be
disposed Of before he retire3 Mr. Crittenden it Is
said, will take Mr.. Webster's place, and Mr.
Choate, Of Boston, we suppose, will be Attorney
General
We observe that the trial Of the Syracuse rioters
was yesterday commenced in the Uni.ed States
District Court, at Buffalo. The principal portion
Of the day occupied in the swearing Of witnesses
Another horrible ARRAY recently took place on
board a steamer at Mackinaw, in which both enei-

IL is gratifying TO learn that the destructive gales
which have swept over Lake Erie for the last two

resumed their regular trips.

decided yetterday, in the United States District
Court, in favor Of the Southern claimants. The

CATHERINE HAYES. WHAT WILL SHE Do -
WILL SHE SING IN ENGLISH OPERA The beau.
tful, charming artist, Catherine Hayes has retired
to Staten Island, to enjoy little rest and fresh
air and We do not know exactly what she intends
to do after her brief sojourn in that pleasant re-
treat. 1t is probable she has not, as yet, made up
her own mind in reference to her future course.
We understand, now that it has become known that
she has cut the connection that was throwing
hampers, day after day, upon the fire OF her genius,
and was clouding the sunshine of the brilliant
career that lay and still lies, before her in the
United States, there are swarms Of competitors
eking TO get hold of her for a new engagement
We trust that the experience of the past has taught
her n useful lesson, and that, coupled with the
good sense she possesses it will guard her against
the dangers of the future No doubt she will be
beset with new fights Of harpes, who woald prey
upon her yitals. But lot her beware of them. Let
her keep the game in her vn hands, and not sur
render to any one he control of her own movements
She has been long enough singing for the benefit Of
OTHERS We hope she will now sing for her own bene-
TT; and that if there are to be sharcrs in the profits
they win be professional men, and not outside specu
lators 1t occurs TO US that there is a new aud
splendid field open for her in tnis and adjoining

has not been tried here for some years,
and would come fresh upon the public
taste, which ever seeks variety, AMI calls for
some new species of pleasure We allude to Eng
lsh opera. As an evidence Of the way that it would
take in this city may refer to the fact that Mr.
and Mrs. Wood sang in one English opera, at the
Park theatre for sixteen nights in secession, TO the
tune of 81 400 per night. If Catherine Hayes should
sing in Erglisn opera, at the Broadway theatre,
where we understand the Seguin troupe are en-
gagged, end would supply the materials for com.
pany, she would very speedily shut up the Italian,
and all other opera, in this city. She could also
sing, We learn, with the same troupe, at Phiadol-
phia, Washington, and other important cit es;
and then she could proceed in concerts through the
more distant cities OF the States. The masses Of
the people, who do rot understand the WORDS of
Italian opera, however much they may admire
the music, would throng in thousands to hear, in
their own tongue, the enchanting strains of "the
soul of song F" viii she undertake this! We
know not but it is worth her consideration.
