The Erening Post makes very sensible sugges-
ton with regard to the northern boundary OF the
Central Park. That boundary is now fixed at One
Hundred and Sixth street, without regard to the
fact that this street, which as yet exists only in
imagnssion, extends across lofty and picturesque
promontory of rock near the Eighth avenue, and
cuts il in two very near it's end. For all pur-
poses of building this PERCEPTIONS hight is valueless,
willie for the use of the Park it would be inyalu-
able. In fact it is the natural termination of the
Park. and the wonder is that it should have been
left out in the original survey. From it's extreme
point, where powder magazine now stands, an
rv,ens;,e and beautiful view is afforded; while, as

When that eminent jurisconsult popularity known
"a GLORIOUS Dick Busted" was elected to the
Office of Counsel to the Corporation, we were
assured that the prcverbial snails pace of the law
would be hurried UP, that old fogyism would be
made ashamed OF itself and stand astonished at the
energetic reforms which this young legal Hercules
would push forward. Offenders against the ordi.
nances were to be punished instantly the rights of
the city in civil suits to be guarded vigilantly, and
in short, millennium deficiency and justice was to
approve the choice of the Tammany Convention in
contnently. But after year of Mr. Busteeds ad
minstration az the head of the Law Department,
the people almost unanimously pronounce lin
bumbug, and very extensive and expensive hum
bug at that.
1t appears that whatever energy the Corporation
Counsel possesses has been used mainly to get
money out Of the Treasury, either for himself or
others. One of his earliest efforts was to push
through the notorious Lowber claim, in
which, instead of guarding the peoples interests,
we find him alternately bullying and wheedling the
Controller to get $500, 900 for the peoples plum
derer; and when the Taxpayers stopped the job,
the Corporation Counsel turns up as attorney, not
for the people, but for LOwber. And recently We
have his own confession that of suits against
the city have gone by default because he did not
attend to them-the only excuse being the want of
assistance in his department. How much this ex-
cuse is worth, may be gathered from the following
of the estimates made for the Law De-
partment by Mr. Robert J. Dillon for 1854, and by
Mr. Richard Bnsteed for 1888:

Burning Of the Sea-View House.
HIoHLANDs, Monday, Jan. III

HIGHLANDS, Monday Jan. 1T, IoOS.
The Sea-View House, at the Highlands, where the
murder of Moses by Donnelly was committed together
with the cottage occupied by Mrs. Jarvis, were totally
destroyed by FIRE about oclock last night. The fire
was first discovered bursting from the third story
windows, and in ten minutes the whole house was in
flames. The house had not been occupied since Sep
tember and the fire was doubtless the work of an in
cendary. The loss is about SIS 900, aud the insurance
about half that amount.

These figures speak for themselves. An increase
of 200 per cent on the whole department, and of
nearly 400 per cent for the distinguished Busteed's
own pocket exhibits amount of energy which
may be creditable to the exhibitor, but we should
suppose could not be particularly gratifying to the
tax payers. The tax levy in which these state
ments are set down is yet to pass the Common
Council, and it is possible that of the figures
may be thought little steep, even for GLORIOUS

WASHINGTON, Monday, Jan. II, 1853.
The step of Senator Brown in yielding the floor
on the Kansas question, after weeks reflection,
and the postpOnement Of the debate till Monday
next, are signs and portents. The alleged ground
of these movements was a change in the aspect of

ton on the subject. Members from Pennsylvania
are receding daily.
Mr. Bright is now considered a dead cock in the
pitt his seat is lost by his defeat at home. Mr..
Fitch, ditto.
The probability is that the whole legislation in
the matter of Kansas this session will be embraced
in the defeat Of the LecOmpton scheme by con-
siderable majority. The Republicans will not ac-
cept Mr.. Douglass Enabling Act. The question
will, therefore, remain open for a new Convention
TO settle under the sanction of the Territorial
Legislature. Next Winter Kansas will appear with
an organized State Government and Senator'S at the
door Of the Union, and ask for admission.
No Trustworthy intelligence has been received
here relative to the Kansas elections. 1t is how
ever, believed, from the tenor of letters of dates
down to the Sd inst, that the Free-State men have
carried their ticket for State officers by large ma
jority, and have poled vote of from IL, 900 to
1900 against the Constitution. Even so, the
Legislature may be PrO-Savery, in consequence of
the fraudulent appOrtionment, which was framed
with the expectation of electing Messrs. Calhoun
and Isaacs to the Senate. The returns of the cleo
ton are expected within week.
The Constitution of Minnesota was presented in
the Senate to-day, and referred to the Committee

R We regret to learn that Mrs. William
Smyth, of Seneca street, was seriously injured
yesterday afternoon. She was riding with Mr..
Smyth when the horse suddenly jumped aside,
and Mrs s., in her fright, sprang from the car
riage, and in her fall sustained very serious
bruises which will lay her up, we fear, for
weeks.
To add to the distress of the family, news
was yesterday received that young Charles
Smyth, was one of the passengers frum New
Orleans on the steamer Pennsylvania which
was blown up and then burned near Memphis,
and that Smyth was severely scalded. This
news is Authentic, as 1t came by letter to young
Yates from young Pritchsrd, dated at St Louis,
where Smyth is now confined " his burns. A
letter had been written some days previous, in
forming the friends of the facts, but that letter
has not come to hand. Charles Smyth is Sc
verely but not dangerously injured. Indeed
calamities come not singly.-Heraid, last e5sn
