JAMES r. WHITING was yesterday appointed
Superintendent of Police by the new Police Com
missioners. AS We never yet supported Judge
Whiting for any Office whatever, and probably never
voted the same ticket with him at any one of the
thirty odd elections at which we have alike been
voters we shall not be accused of partisan bias in
pronouncing this an admirable appointment. Judge
w. is a Hardshell Democrat, with some procliyi-
ties toward Nativism, but none at all toward
"Blsck Repubcanism. He has ability energy,
experience and nerve, however; and rascality and
iuffanism will be at discount in this City and its
suburbs whenever he shall have fairly possessed
himself Of the machinery for preserving order, life
and property which has been so wisely ~confded to
his hands.
We entreat the Commissioners to proceed as
they have begun-appoint no man and remove none
because of his politics, but give us the most efficient
and useful Police that this country ever saw. The
blessings Of millions will be their ample and unfa-
ing reward.

THE YELLOW rEJER IN RIO JANEIRO.

We make the following extract from private
letter received in this city from Spanish gentle
man residing in Rio Jsneiro, dated Feb. %:
"You will, perhaps, not exactly understand my
illusions to the mortality of the place. but when
tell you that we are now in the midst of the sickly
season, and that the yellow fever is carrying away
from twenty to thirty foreigners daily, beside leaving
several hundred sick in the hospitals you will agree
with me in thinking that IT would be pretty poor
speculation for any company to insure my fei and,
as my occupations keep me out of doors, exposed to

Judge Peabody in dissolving Judge ROosevelts
unadyised Injunction, takes the ground not only
that an injunction pending quo worranto is with
out precedentbut without precedent for the best Of
reasons, namely that the interest Of the public re-
quires that the duties Of Office should be performed by
somebody, and that since it would be sacrifice of
those interests which the law will not countensnce,
to prevent the duties Of the Office from being per-
formed at all pending controversy, who is the
proper person to perform them 1t is precisely on
this principle that members Of legislative bodies
holding the regular certificates are allowed to sit
and vote, though their seat is contested, pending
final action on that question.

When the late war in Europe broke out, great
number of military men pointed not without GER
tain sense Of awe, to the wonderful organization of
the Russian army. While in France and England
brigades, divisions, army-cOrps, had to be formed
from elements hitherto entirely disconnected while
commanders had to be appointed to lead bodies of
troops which they had never seen before, and stats
had to be formed Of officers arriving from all cor.
ners of the cOuntry-in Russia, the huge war
machine had been perfected in all its subdivisions,
years before; every regiment had its unalterable
place in the organization Of the whole; each body
of men, from the company to the army-corps, had
its standing commander, and each more important
division had its regular staff. The machine was
said TO be, in fact in working trim; it only await
ed the word CT command, the putting on of the
steam, in order TO move with the utmost ease;
every cog, wheel, screw, pulley, strap, valve and
lever in its place, doing its work and no more.
That was what we were told we should see; but,
unfortunately we saw something quite different.
The srmy-cOrps were scarcely ever complete, whole
divisions and still Oftener brigades being detached
TO distant theaters Of war; while other troops were
mixed up with the main bodies. The desire to
keep together as much as possible the elements of
each corps, division and brigade, appeared to ham,
per the movements of the army on the march quite
as much as the strict regulations laid down for the
order in which battles should be fought; and finally
the nice subdivisions of command with all the gen.
erals in charge-corps, divisions, brigades, with
their respective stats, all well known to their
troops, well acquainted with each other, and we'll at
home in their respective places and dutes-all this
turned out to be one vast conspiracy to swndle the
Government out of its funds and the soldier out Of
his rations, clothing and comforts.
II these facts still required an official confrma.
ton, the Russian Government has just given il.
The new organization of the army aims first and
mainly at the roofing up Of those hotbeds Of
wholesale embezzlement, the subordinate stats
and headquarters. The stats, both of the army
corps and of brigades, are done away with. Nay,
the very name of brigade disappears from the Rus
sian army. The whole six corps of the line
are placed under the command of one man,
Prince NJ. d. Gorchakof l., the late COM
mander in the Crimea. Each corps has,
it is true, commanding general; but
he has staf-that is to say, no means of actu-
ally exercising the details Of this cOmmand-he is
at best but the inspector Of his corps-a sort of
check on the five generals of division under him.
In reality, the generals of the thirty divisions
eighteen Of infantry six Of cavalry and ak Of ar
tillery), forming what is called the FIRST army"
depend directly upon the eommander-in-ehief spd

A little more than two years ago. the Legislature
of our State after years Of hesitation and thought
passed an act to suppress Intemperance, by prOhb-
ting the traffic in Intoxicating Drinks. No man
could complain of this act as partial 1t laid thu
OK to the root of the tree. Lordly saloons and
,loathsome novels fashionable hotels and subterra-
mean arunkeries, were alike forbidden, under equal
penalties, to sell Alcoholic Liquors, except for
medical or other than bibulous purposes. And,
while the act was widely condemned as too radical
and sweeping, no man ventured to stigmatize it as
aimed at an imaginary evil, or warning on
friend instead of foe to human happiness. The
general complaint of its adversares imported that it
cut too deeply-that instead of restricting itself to
the acknowledged abuses Of drinking, it COMPOUNDED
those abuses with the legitimate use-that, instead
of seeking to abolish or purify only the loathsome
bsunts Of debauchery and vice, it included with them
the resorts of rational and moderate enjoyment in
one sweeping condemnation.
Fernando Wood was the newly chosen Mayor of
our city when this act was passed, and had signal.
lied himself by pledge to enforce all lays and
