NIayor 1Temann has signed petition for the res
toration of the old police in place OF the Metro
politan system. We think our excellent mayor Is
rather hasty in this business, and has not enough
considered the gross abuses to when the oiu
police was easily liable. Under the controi OF an
hone st man like himself, we dare say there would
be no reason to complaint but in the hands oil an
ambitious and mercenary scoundrel, such as inisn'
possibly on some occasion get himself elected to the
MayOralty, the police, under the old system, might
become very dangerous to the public welfare. we
are confident that if the Mayor would reflect
little more carefully on this possibility, he would
see the inconvenience of confding to the Mayor the
power over the appointments OF policemen when
Mr.. Tiemann claims for that functonary. The
only way to have a good police is to keep IL re-
moved from partisan control which cannot De done
with the system dyocated BY the Mayor. IL
tue the present Commission was not put INTO
Office in the proper way, and we fear is not wholly
free from improper influences and practces-such,
for instance, as levying black mail on the men IN
order to give house to Commissioner; but it Is
not by the means which the Mayor proposes that
such an eyi, can be repaired. The Commission
should be reformed but not by his method. Let
it be composed as is the Government of the Aims
House, of an equal number Of members from each
of the great parties elected by the people, and let
Commissioners as well az men be forbidden to
receive brides or gratuites in any form. dthen,
with Mayor Temanns energy to inspire, and his
integrity and good to oversee the working OF
the force, We might have cheaper, more creditabe
and more efficcacious police than ever.

settlers were fact getting the upper hand when
Picrce's Administration again stepped In 70 oea'
them down BY quArtering an army upon them.
This beating down process, thus begun BY poor
Pierce, has been seduousy followed up BY Buchan'
an. Not content with merely walking In the foot
steps OF his predecessor, he is ready and even snA
ious to overstep them. A majority in the House OF
Representatives, which, but for certain previous
beating. down operations practced in secret upon
certain members, would have been much larger

minstraton, the President, instead Of yielding 10

jealousy at work to beat that majority down.
Should be succeed in this, be has Two thousand
regular troops aud more quartered in Kansas, ready
to be again employed in the beating down operation
against the inhabitants Of that Territory.
However, to confess the truth, this beating
down policy of Pierce and his imitatof has by no
II cans been limited to msorities in Congress, 70
nsjorties in Kansas, or TO popular majorties IN
the Free-Labor States. 1t has been directed with
not less energy and with equal success against the
Democratic party. Perce's beating dOvn opera
tons had so manned it, that with Buchanan seated
on its back, it did but Just Autter into its old
nest Of the White House, where Mr.. Buchanan Is
now busy in beating out Of it the little life which
alone saved him and it from dropping to the ground
during the last Presidential fight before crossing
Mason and Dixon's line.
To put down the Democratic party ought to be
glory enough for one man, and we trust Mr.. Bu-
cbanan will be obliged to rest content with this
achievement, without extending his putting down
operations TO the right ofthe majority to govern.

The grounds on which sundry members OF the
House of Representatives at Washington oppose
the resolution of Mr.. Harris for the expulsion OF
Mr.. Matteson from his seat in that body seem to
evince singular misapprehension as to the ques'
ton upon which they are called upon to act The
ground taken BY Mr.. Stanton was, that Matteson,
having been expelled from the preceding Congress,
had been once already tried, convicted and pun
ished for the corruption charged against him, and
that it WAS contrary to the principles of the COM
mon law that man should be punished twice for
the same Offense. But this is totally to mlsap-
prehend the nature and object of vote Of expul-
sion from the House. The House expels men,
Der who has been guilty, or who is believed
to have been guilty, of some disgraceful act
not by way of punishment to him-for that is left to
the ordinary legal tribuuas-but by way of show
il its adherence of the act and of indicating it's
own serrespect. DR. Mtteson has not hitherto
been punished, nor is it now proposed to punish
him. All that the last Congress did, and all that it
is proposed that the present Congress shall do, is
70 express an opinion that persons guilty of :orrup
ton disgrace the House by their presence in it.
Mr.. Taylor believed Matteson guilty and admitted
that his conduct disgraceful, but act up that
there ought to be expulsion except for dsOrdery
conduct Itwould be difficult to imagine what con-
duct would be more "disOrderly," more fatal to
the dignity and decency of the proceedings Of
Congress, than conduct Of the kind charged upon
Mr.. Matteson. Whatever may be thought at Wash
DgtOn or elsewhere as to the absolute crminality
of such conduct, considered in purely Congress
sionsl point of view, in the view 10 which alone the
House has any right to pass upon it, its place must
be fixed at the very top Of the criminal calendar.
The right of the constituents Of given district to
be represented by the man Of their choice is no
doubt entitled to certain degree of respect But
the rights Of the people of the whole Union in the
preservation of the dignity and purity of Congress
ought likewise to be considered. As the matter
stands at present the House would seem entitled
to express in a significant manner it's sensibility
that the constituents of Mr.. Mstteson should have
thought proper ~ send person of his character
to occupy a seat in that body. 1t is by no means
certain that after their attention had been dis
tnctly called to that objection on the part of the
House, Mr.. Mattesons constituents might not pre-
fer to return some other person in his place. If
they persisted in reelectng him, it would then be
quite time enough to set up that the responsibility
of his presence in the House rested with them and
not with his fellow members.

The Herald, in contrastDg the present position and
chances Of the Lecompton Constitution with those
of the Kansas Nebraska bill at the time of the earlier
votes taken upon it, makes use of the following sig
niicant language: " If the Administration of poor
Pierce could beat dorm majority of fifteen, who
doubts that the strong and energetic Administra-
"tion of Mr.. Buchanan will beat dozen majority OF
"one?" We cannot but consider this paragraph
and especially the phrase in it, twice repeated
which we have taken the liberty to put into italics
az very feGcitOus and comprehensive description,
though hardly so intended by The Herald, of the
policy Ofthe Federal Government, not merely during
the time of "poOr Pierce" but if possible still
more so during the pending Administration OF the
still poorer Buchanan. Not in carrying out the
will and wishes of the people, not in the enforce
ment and sustentston of acts Of Congress express
ing and embodying the popular will, did "poor
Pierce employ the vast patronage, power and in-
Auence which his Office conferred upon him. On
the contrary, that patronage, power and influence
were most strenuously and unscrupulously eIerted
in beating down" the will of the people, whether
as represented in Congress or seeking to find ex
preston at the polls. BY intimidation influence,
csiolery and corruption, Pierces Administration
succeeded in beating down, as The Herald says, q
mslority of fifteen in the House Of Representa-
tives, and in 30 passing the Kansas-Nebraska bill.
But this beating down process did by no means
stop there. In fact, this was only the beginning
il. The Congressional majority and the will
the people as represented by it, having been thu
successfully beat down, attention was next turned
to Kansas itself The people of the Northern
States, finding themselves betrayed by their repre-
sentatives in Congress, did not however, resign
the contest They sought, on the other hand, to
avail themselves of the very provisions OF the
kansas-Nebraska bill yet to save Kansas to free
dom. Large numbers of Northern settlers poured
pto The Territory for the very purpose OF awaiting
themselves of that clause in the Kansss.Nebraska
OIL whi;h gave to the actusl settlers the right Of
determining the institutions Of the Territory Al
feao! before the FIRST Territorial election it
WAS evident that those free-lsbor set
| ''erS were majority Of the resident in
habiiants, and would, if not "beat down" elect
majority Of the Territorial Legislature. In order
10 accomplish that object, a conspirscy WAS ar.
ranged between the Federal officers in III. Terri
