Tux netherlands SQUADRON AT WORK AT
LAsr.--we perceive that three war vessels of
the Mediterranean squadron are ordered 10 the
Gulf to take care of the interests of our mer-
chant marine in those waters. The Wabash has
just sailed from this port, and the Macedonian
from Boston, to look after the British cruisers
and protect our flag from insult The Constel-
iation is now in New York barbor bound for the
same mission. Heretofore the Mediterranean
squadron has been Q mere show Since the
war of 1915 they have done no service In that
sea, except bringing Koesuth from the terrific
ries of the Sublime Porte, and protecting the
demi-semi American citizen Kosta, two very
expensive arrangements. If they had been en-
ployod in China or in the Gulf of Mexico all
that time some good results 10 American COM
merce might be now on record. Since the diff
Guilty with Algeirs there has been nothing for
the Mediterranean squadron to do In case of
any trouble with European Power the few
ships we kept there could at any time have been
captured before they could get through the
Straits of Gibraltar. We are glad to see that
these vessels are about to be we'll employed at
last

THE STREET COMMISSIONERS OrrTCE-The
public are getting anxious to know what the
new Street Commissioner is doing. There Is no
longer any doubt as to the legality of his ap-
poin,ment. Litigation is at last at an end, and
Il is not too much TO expect that the city should
begin to enjoy the blessings Of peace. Thou
sands Of workmen are in need of employment;
the streets are In villanous condition; frauds
without number In the Street Department are
still undisclosed; Mr.. Cooper Is In full posses
sion of bis powers, aud he ought to make some
show for himself. Why does he not publish
these frauds as be discovers them, 20 that the
public may get them in small doses, and not re.
serve them, after Mr.. Flagg's principle, until
they become too large TO be swallowed

WILL CoKrrRoLLKR FLAGG RESIGN The
Board Of Councilmen have passed resolution
that Mr.. Flagg should be requested to resign,
and committee has been appointed to urge
the matter Of his removal at Albany. We never
expected that poor Flagg would be polite
enough to accede to the request of the Council
men, or brilliant enough to comprehend the ns-
ture of the resolution, nor, indeed, that they
believed he would resign. The movement look
ed like spasmodic attempt to crush the popu-
lar sentiment in favor of an independent tax
payers party-which would utterly aunihilste
all the corrupt factions-by semblance of re-
form in that department of the city govern
ment in which it is certainly most needed-the
ComptrOllers Office. But from all the facts
which have come to light about the manage
ment of Mr.. Flagg's department, and his own
repeated Acknowledgements of his incompetency.
we have right to expect that he will be re-
moved. We should like to know what the COM
mittee of Councilmen are doing in the matter.
Let us have some report.

NORTHERN vs.. SOUTHERN LAW AND ORDER
PEOPLE IN GLASS HoUsEs.-ThAt wise old saw
which says that ''pesple who live in glass houses
should never throw stones" will apply very
well just now to those egotistical Southern jour
Aalists and philosophers who delight TO contrast
the good order Of Southern society with the dis
orderly and revolutionary isus and cliques and
factions which are 80 abundant In the
North. Look at the Southern cities of
New Orleans Louisville, Washington and
Baltimore. During the last few years
have they not all been disgaced by the
bloodiest ruffians and riots In the Union, since
the great Know Nothing church burning riots of
Philadelphia And look at the condition of New
Orleans to day-the regular municipal govern
ment suspended, and the city placed under the
martial law of Vigilance Committee.
And Washington, too From the proclams-
ton of the Mayor In reference to the election OF
tomorrow, the 9TH inst, he evidently appre-
bends another outbreak of the "Plug Uglies,r
BLOOD Tubs" and other savage bsrbarisns
like that of last year, when the United States
marines had to be called in and discharge O
broadside or two among them Of ball cartridges
But the Mayor says: "Let lawless gangs be as
sured that they will not escape condigu punish
ment, should they venture 10 commit outrsges
similar TO those enacted In this city but year
ago !" and there is some comfort Ia that. If
the ruffians disregard the warning, give them
wholesome dose OF cold lead and IL that will
not suffice, try the persuasive powers Of few
rounds Of iron grape and canister. Meantime,
we would simply repeat to our Southern critics
Of Northern society that good old maxim, that
people who live in glass houses should never
thrn- cfona,v

SUMNER AT LAsr.-From cold, wet, unplea-
SAINT May, we have suddenly jumped into mid.
summer weather, with the thermometer mark
ing SO in the shade. The city has at once be-
come enlivened Broadway swsrms with ladies
and ioungers in gay summer attire, green being
the fashion for the ladies' All kinds Of retail
trade will be improved by this weather, and
the hotels will soon be overrunning with South
erners en- route for the springs and the sea shores
Of the North. To the invalids who have been
suffering from diseases incident to our variable
climate, this return Of sunshine and fruits and
flowers Is an inestimable boon. New York city
is now the finest watering place in the Union.
With the fresh breezes from the sea, with the
beautiful environs and fine rural drives, deli
cious excursions in the bay the palatial hotels,
the Opera and the theatres, the man of leisure
cannot complain of lack of amusement or
gaiety in the metropolis We want nothing, 10
fact but clean streets and the Central Park,
and that seems 50 far in the distance that
even Lord Roses telescope couldn't make
1t out However, let us enjoy the fine wea-
Their and attendant luxuries of the season.

MORE WATER wANrsD-Tbe summer Is now
fairly upon us, and the demand for Croton
water is urgent; yet we perceive that there Is
such dearth in the receiving reservoir that
the Croton Aqueduct Board cannot afford even
10 keep the fountains playing; whereas, II we
had the abundance which the city absolutely
requires, stream Of water should be allowed
to run through the cutters for half an hour

Our correspondent at Turks Island, writing on the
9th uH, says:-Sinoe my latest report there has
been shipped from the port of Salt Cay 2s,7sl
bushels salt and 1868 from Grand Turk, making
total Of 2s,434. The rskinss continue at Grand
Turk, which, together with the present demand for
money, tend to lower prices. The highest price now
