TEE NEW POLICE RCOnE-Weu, the Court
Of Appeals has decided In favor Of the Me-
tropolitan Police act the Mayor has disbaud-
ed the Municipal police, and the branch of the
city government passes, without obstacle, into the
hands Of the Governors agents, MesxA Draper,
Nye, Siranahan and their associated Henceforth
all matters Of police will belong to the Metropoi-
tan force and their regular caieb; they wih have
the peace and order sod safety Of the city in
charge From this day forth the whole RESPONSE
bility devolves upon their shoulders.
This is therefore good time to remember tie
arguments which were used before the Legisls-
ture-aud repeated in presence Of the Court of
Appeals-as the ground for the enactment of the
new law. It was argued that the present police
force, being mere political tool in the hands of
the Mayor. had ceased to be q protection to the
citizens. 1t was urged that owing to the limited
sphere of authority assigned to each policeman,
malefaetors frequently escaped by merely crossing
from one county to another, a. from New York
to Brooklyn. 1t was said that, from various rea-
sons, our municipal police were grossly inefi-
Gent, and that crime was vastly on the increase
in the city II was insinuated that the police
we're not as active as they might be in suppress
ing crime, for the simple reason that they were
selected from the worst classes of the popMace,
and it was argued that II they were 30 constitut-
ed as to be beyond the reach of local party SQUAD
bles, and appointed by men Of tried character
and experience, they would answer great deal
better, in every point of view.
Tboca rtc IN
Der just now. AS to the political part Of the
business, it hardly appears just yet that we have
been great gamers by the exchange; the new
Commissioners are as decided partisans as ever
the Mayor was; and they have the peculiar ad
vantage Of being opposed to the city in politics.
while we are always certain, at the least of having
Mayor of our own party But the other points
remain to be examined. For instance, we must
prepare to see the new Metropolitan force afford
ing citizens general and really useful protec-
ton. We must expect to hear of no more as.
saults in the Streets no more murders, no more
brutal outrages on mountaineering unpun-
ished. We must look out to see the city ordinan-
which now block even Broadway and drive Pc
destrians into the mud, removed. We must pre-
pare for time when there shall be no more street
walkers shutting our wives and daughters out of
the streets after dark, no more rowdy fights in
Broadway, no more gambling houses, no more
shops for the sale of lottery tickets, no more
Peter Funk stores. The existence of these wrongs
was the main argument for the dissolution of the
old force; the Few will doubtless inaugurate its
career with the destruction of them. We under
stand that arrangements are already made to
carry out these reforms; We ore sure that every
one viii be glad to hear it.

We see II announced that the Appletons are pre-

are disposed to believe from the character of the
men who have charge Of it. 1t is, we are told,
under The direction OF Chas. A. Dana, of the Tn

Dents The idea Of the work is borrowed from
the success o. the combined effort by which the
French encyclopedias, such as Yolt.irc, Didero.
and Others upset, all the established sysems-re-
ligicus az well as political-whch prevailed In
France previous to the frat revolution The bsne-
fetal results which flowed from the labors OF
those men-the infdelity in all thiags worthy Of
belief--tbe ratioualism which was only another
name for gros brutality--thc dcsccraton
Of parest and hoiest ties-and the
shedding OF oceans of human blood in
the effort to perpetuate their insane
theories, have SO GIed the imaginations Of
our American philosophers that they hope by
using the same instruments to rival the fame of
their atheistical prototypes. But as the circum-
somewhat different, IL is to be presumed that they
will erdcayor to adapt their programme to the
religious ard political necessities Of our own
community.
Thus, instead OF The total denial Of godhead
we shall probably have spidtualism sabstitutedas
the saving creed Of mankind, with male and fe-
male duality Of the Messiah In the persons OF
Horace Greeley ard Mother Hatch. The old
socialist ard communist theories being ex-
ploded by the III success Of the various Phalan-
sterian, Icarian and FouTcritc experiments alrea-
dy made in this country, we shall no doubt have
some other plan started by which mankind will
be enabled TO live comfortably on the smallest
possible amount of self denial. In the way Of a
political revolution the work is ready cut and
dry to the hands Of our new encyclopedias.

taken by the party in the late canvass for
President, and established clearly the fact
that the democratic party was the national
party Of the United States.
Mr. GARFIELDE was here called upon TO
address the meeting, but as night was
approaching, that gentleman proposed to
address a meeting of his fellow-citizens
either that evening or on some subsequent
occasion. Tonight his ereHiEg," were
responses given by hundreds. We are in
duty bound to say that the meeting at the
capitol in the afternoon, and that in the
evening at the school house, were more
numerously attended than any at which
we have ever been present in the Terri
tory.
Delieacy, and proper respect for the
position and feelings Of Others, induced
Mr.. GARFIELDE to propose to give way for
speakers in the opposition ranks, who had
been sojourners in the Territory for longer
period than himself Mr.. BRowN under
took to respond to the arguments adduced
at the capitol by the democratic speakers
How well he succeeded, those who attend
ed the meeting can determine. Mr.. GAR
FIELDE followed in reply, and although he
treated the speakers gentlemanly and cour-
teously, at the same timo he crucifed their
arguments head downwards, mailing their
black republican opinions to the wall with
arguments irrefragible

1.-THE bull, in the meantime, playing
circus" supposing he was following his
victim. He played circus" " for two or
three times very beautifully, when to the
great astonshment Of Jim, who was in the
tree, he saw Joe very suddenly emerge
from the hole in the ground" Says Jim
to Joe, lyon Internal fool don't you see

He left his position then and " tailed" on
to the buffalo bull-the bull no,o IN the lend.
The application intended to be given by
the above anecdote is our own. As to the
" old hunter" referred to, we have moth
ing to say. The buffalo bull alluded to,
we briefly refer to as Illustrative, in many
respects, of the position that Gov. Stevens
has occupied towards his enemies since his
arrival here, and connected with his trip
across the continent, in the survey Of a
route for the Pacific railroad-north. The
q" green adrenturers," to which allusion is
made, are k'loicn and the bears, in the
stronghold referred to, are not only En0lcn,
but appreciated; and whenever the admi-
rers of d" skreeching" Kansas abolitionists
desire to attack the principles of the demo
cratic party in the fastnesses-in the net
work with which it is secured by the con-
stitution of our common country, we doubt
not but that the bears" will be OF hand,
and handle them roughly, but always gen
tlemanly.
In all likelihood the two "green adren-
trerS" are still in pursuit of the buffalo
bull, but they will never be able to get an
other shot at his head or vitals-they will
always be found behind-at The tail end.

Can't. John Cain.

BY letter received by the last mail,
from Vancouver, we are led to infer that
the gentleman whose name heads this arti-
Gle, and who was appointed by president
PIERCE to an Office as Indian agent for this
territory, has determined to resign that
trust with an object Of returning to the
state Of his adoption-Indiana.
All who are at all intimately acquainted
with the official position occupied by Capt.
CAIN, OF the commencement Of our late In-
dian war-when hostility was running riot"
over some of the fairest and most favored
portions Of our territory, kno,O that 10 his
wise and prudent councils rery much is due,
that peaceful relations with the indians in
some places was maintained, aud in others,
restored at so early a day.

experienee-of natural strong instincts,
