wore, or, to use homely proverb, "out Of the
frying pan into the fire. 1t would probably be bet
ter to restore the former system, placing the control
in the Common Council and making that body re-
sponsible to the people for Encouragement or NAL
versaton in the cmigrant institution, than to con-
tinue any separate organization especially not
subject to the action Of the people, except the power
of electing one commissioner each year. which
one would be always in a minority. If they could
be all turned out together for bad behaviour at the
end Of a year or two years, it would be different
thing But the proposed plan, though popular in
appearance, fixes them in Office as snugly and perna-
nently as the Ten Governors in the Aims House. As
for the administering Of oaths Of office, such oaths
very like dicers' oaths, and not to be relied
upon for the faithful performance Of duty and just
as little reliance is to be placed the security of

The CORPORATION AND IT'S ADVERTISING. Our
philosophical contemporary, the Tribune, makes it.
self very miserable certain dongs Of the Cor
poraton touching ten, toast, and advertising. At
first, the tea-room only excited its clumsy Jokes
and its rather vulgar bursts Of merrinent; but as
soon as the Corporation, with the eye of business
men, began TO arrange their advertising business
on the same principle that other sensible men do,
cotemporary was cut out of the list, and burst
forth in n most terrible storm of indignation and
passion The aldermen are denounced rs ''usurp-
ers'' and ''plundercrs,' almost as bad as Louis
Napoleon Every variety of scornful epthet is
heaped upon them, which the vocabulary of that
journal possesses in so much origin al abundance
Now. all this is in bad taste, and bad policy. The
Corporation, in appointing the HERALD one of its
organs for advertising, has merely initiated the
sensible conduct Of the Irish chambermads, auc-
tioneers and those who have houses to let, by pub
fishing in journals that have the largest and best cir
culation among the great mass Of the community
We can safely say that the public have long since
found OUT and that the Corporation has only recently
made the discovery, that really the only paper
worth advertising in, of all the other papers in
the city, is the HERALD. The Tribune tries to say
word about circulation, and refers to penny pa
pers. Penny papers are all trash, and nevcr can
| amount to anything, where there is an intelligent
community, and great leading journal properly con-
Quoted and properly managed. Now, there are only
two daily journals in the English language that
possess throughout the world general, comprehen-
sive, and peculiar circulation everywhere---these
are the London Times, and the New York He
RAID. The London Times, from the happy combi-
nation Of genius talent, business qualifications in
dustry tact and vigilance, is the leading paper in
the English language in Europe, and has absorbed
all the circulation Of all its rivals on the other side
of the water. The New YORK HERALD is in the in
fancy of that career, and has already passed the
most difficult and rugged distractions in the jour
ney of success. 1t has no competitor, nor ever
can have.
If the Corporation give any of the other daily
journals here thousand dollars year to do their
advertising, they ousLt, Al. .nnndasf principles
Of arithmetic to give at least ten thousa nd
dollars year for the same service; for we con-
tribute more than ten times much as either OF
them, and give publicity to all the intelligence that
| they wish to convey to the public.
