MARCUS TU1IIus CICERO STANLEY on MAYOR
TENANTS REFoRM.-We give elsewhere let
ter from Marcus Tulius Cicero Stanley, and
endorsed by Mayor Tiemann and Corporation
Counsel Busted, correcting some unimportant
statements made in our police report the other
day. We have got the three wise men of
Gotham now engaged in the same great work
Of social, moral, financial, religious and every
other kind OF reform. IL seems that Marcus
Tulius Cicero, from the compunctious visitings
Of his own conscience or from the movement of
higher power, volunteered to make an afiida-
Wit Of his present want of all connection with
lottery policy dealing; and he also had the
honor OF being introduced to the Mayor as a
fellow reformer ~ our eloquent and perscvcr-
ing Corporation Counsel. Marcus Tullius
Cicero is not OF present, it appears, engaged in
any roguery, neither has he joined the church;
and he considers the report that he has become
q pious Christian as a most atrocious libel on
his character. We give him the full benefit of
the correction made in his supposed pious cha
racter, as represented by himself, and guaran-
tecd 10y the Mayor and Corporation Counsel
under their own signatures.
We begin, however, TO have some hopes of
reform now. Marcus Tsllius Cicero, pretend
ing to no picty but having the good of man
kind at heart, has offered his advice and infor-
nation TO the Mayor, backed by Corporation
Counsel Busted; and the Mayor--good, easy
man--is willing to get information from any
quarter, he Il from saint or sinner.
We understand that one half Of the lottery
policy dealers have already shut up, and that
the other half are trembling in their boots. We
advise all the other delinquents around town to
prepare for the bosom of reform welded now
by men who will sweep them into the penten-
tiary, we hope, in better style than the streets
Of New York baye been swept

THE Know NorHSG BALANCE or POWER AT
ALBANIA SIGNIFICANT MovEMENT,-Now that
the long agony Is over and a Speaker elected
many of our readers have doubtless been puzzled
to account for the obstinacy with which the eight
Know Nothings of our Assembly at Albany
stuck to the stump of their party and blocked the
organization Of the House. From what we have
learned upon the subject however, there was
something more in this tenacity to their pur-
pose than any consideration in the way Of o
share of the spells of the Legislature We I'M
derstand that the leaders Of the Know Nothing
organization throughout the country have been
watching the drift of events at Washing
from the symptoms Of disintegraton in
the republican and democratic parties
q fine opening for the reconstruction Of the
American party upon new platform. Ac-
cordingly, the leading men Of the party in the
different sections Of the Union, have been taking
soundings and comparing notes, and have al
ready agreed upon a deliberate movement for
the contemplated reorganization Of their scat
tered materials Of the rank and file. and upon
such practical principles as cannot fail to Sc
cure numerous achievements North and South
Hence, We understand the obstinate adhesion
Of the corporal's guard Of Know Nothings in our
Assembly at Albany to their own cause as
separate party. They stand forth, in this view
as the nucleus Of the proposed resuscitation of
their party throughout the Union. We must
say too, that this is very plausible solution Of
the mystery and that the indicated movement
has every encouragement from the signs of the
times. Kansas once out Of the way the niger

sues and with the expurgation of the dark Ian
tern rubbish Of the late Know Nothing camp,
the party may speedily assume the proportions
Of great national organization, open and

and comprehensive and popular. Thus by the
wear 1860 il is quite possible that this new

THE ENGLISH IN INDIA-At length we have
authentic information Of the evacuation ofLuck-
now by Sir Colin Campbell. There has been q
seeming effort to conceal the fact, which was
inferentially apparent some time since. That
Sir Colin did right, in military point of view,
to get out Of hornets nest like Lucknow,
where under cover Of thick walls every Sepoy
was AZ good as Highlander, Is too clear to
need demonstration and it is little singular
that any mystery should have been made about
the matter.
1t Is quite clear to every one that, though
the Indian rebels can no longer contend for
dominion with their English masters, the rebel
lion is very far from being crushed out yet.
Dude alone contains a quarter Of million of
fighting men, and an abundance Of impenetrable
jungle: further south, there are numerous float
ing bodies of troops in arms against the Eng
lish ; the remains of the army which was driven
out Of Delhi are yet to be hunted down. 1t will
take great deal of time, and cost an enormous
sum OF money to root out these pestilent fell
lows; 1t may cost more than all India is worth
to Great Britain
simultaneously with this war, England is
carrying on another war with China. which
likewise, from all accounts, will be no light
pastime. The Chinese have learnt to fight by
this time, a. they showed at the recent opera
tons against Canton IT may take couple Of
years to settle matters with them.
Two such wars carried on at several thousand
miles distance from England will make aprctty
hole in the national purse, and lay an addition
al load of no light weight on the shoulders Of
the British public. No wonder that people
should begin already-ss some eminent publ
cists Of London are doing-to agitate the ques-
ton whether India is worth keeping at the
price?

The REMOVAL OF QJARASIlSE--We published
the other day report of a committee appointed
some time since to agitate the question Of the
removal of Quarantine. The committee con-
slider the reasons for removing the Quarantine
buildings to Sandy Hook to be cogent, and the
opposition of the New Jersey Legislature to be
based upon erroneous views.
They argue. and with obvious truth, that
New Jersey is quite as much interested in the
removal of the Quarantine to place where it
shall be innocuOus, as New York OF Brooklyn.
Jersey City and the vicinity are rapidly becom-
ing part of New York. Much of the business
of the port is done there already; and as time
rolls on, other important enterprises will follow
the example Of the Cunard Company, and make
their headquarters there. Nothing appears
more certain than that Jersey City must parti-
cipate alike in the prosperity and in the mis-
haps of New York. The greater and healthier
this city becomes, the greater and healthier will
Jersey City be; and, in the same way, if New York
were attacked by yellow fever, and the trade of
the port checked, no part Of this city would
suffer more than the adjacent portions of New
Jersey. The whole State of New Jersey is equally
knitted to us. If anything should happen
whereby the present intercourse between New
Jersey and this city were stopped, it would be
death blow to the industry, agriculture, and
commerce of our sister State.
1t must be abundantly apparent to every Jer-
seyman that the scheme which was carried into
effect last year by which second Quarantine
establishment was planted on the lower end Of
Staten Island was as great mistake in view of
the public health as it has proved as private
speculation. We are not inclined to think that
the enterprising operators who carried that
little affair through in the hope of making
money on the lots they had for sale, will be
likely to operate again in hurry; and the
'Fever Depot" is just as gross mistake.
Sandy Hook, and no other place but Sandy
Hook, is the place for Quarantine, and If the
Jerseymen have any wit they will come to their
senses and consent to the establishment of hos
pitfalls there under the joint supervision Of the
two States. 1t is to be hoped that the Gov
ernor's opposition-like the hostility of the Lee
gislature-may be overcome by fresh argument;
though, of course, an application for the cession
of the spot should be accompanied with an
offer of round sum of money.

KALLoCH AND DAyIs.-We see some newspa-
pers couple the names of these two men to-
gethcr ~ joint and similar defamers of the press.
There never were two men more unlike, nor do
their respective positions bear any analogy.
Mr.. Kalloch was censured by the press on the
strength Of evidence given in court of Justice,
and reported in oil the papers; and for him to
turn round and abuse the newspapers az he is
doing is like the schoolboy biting the rod with
which he is whipped Winter Davis on the con-
trary only expressed his contempt for the parti-
zan press and therein he entitled himself to the
public respect. Nothing too severe or contemp-
tuous can be said OF ne party press of this
country; and what Mr.. Davis said entirely coin
cides with the opinion of every Independent and
intelligent man.

FINANCIAL AFFAIRS IN EuRoPE.-There APP
pears to be somewhat of q luii in the imitation
of the English funds; instead Of reaching 96 as
was expected, they have receded to the neigh
borhood of s4a. Still, the Bank of England
has reduced the rate of discount to five, and on
many continental markets, as at Hamburg il is
as low as three. Money continues to accumu-
late at the great financial centres.
This Just illustrates what we have said so
often; that we are on the eve Of period of in
fiation which will be as sudden aud spasmodic
as it must be short lived.
The tendency of all articles of prime necessi-
ty-staple commercial commodities-is down
ward. Breadstuffs cotton, tea, sugar, coffee,
hides, and raw materials of every description
are more likely to recede than to advance in
price: because, in the first place, consumers are
everywhere curtailing their expenses and the
demand is sensibly diminishing; while, second
ly, merchants are everywhere liquidating and
turning their goods into money at any sacrifice
to meet their engagements. 1t will not be safe
to consider the decline in values complete until
there has been thorough liquidation of the
commercial Indebtedness of 1857.
By parity ofreasoning, the tendency of stocks,
both at home and abroad, must be upward
for some time to come. Capitalists will
find no other safe or profitable investment
for their money but the stock market, and
hence the funds abroad and State stocks here
are likely to improve. Of course it does not
follow from this that the public are going to be
such fools as to embark, after the lesson Of last
year, in new railway share speculations; the
movement in railway securities will evidently
continue as il has begun mere hole and cor
ner operation among the bulls and bears of
Wall street, assisted perhaps by few noodles
from outside who have little money to lose
and cannot be happy till they have lost it.
Our State stocks and good sound bonds are
calculated to improve, as the only safe invest
ment for money in the present period Of stag
nation.
for some months to come. By midsummer OF
next autumn. however, there will be change
merchandise will be ruling at such rates that
purchasers will lie tempted into the market and
the commercial arena will be cleared of the
moribund houses which now cucumber it and
ill the street with doubtful paper. When this
takes place, trade will revive with sudden inn
petus. The banks will be eager to find employ
ment for their surplus millions, and everyfa
cility will be afforded to new and strong house.
to extend their operations. Money will be
withdrawn from the stock market and invested
in the safer channels of trade. and fms the
new initiation will proceed.
How long it may continue cannot yet be
foreseen. But if it stsrts on a bank basis OF
thirty millions in specie and after a period OF
stagnation, ii may be presumed that it will be
more rapid than any former period of imitation,
and, consequently that the collapse will be equal
ly unprecedented in suddenness and severity.

TIE PUBLIC PRINrING.-The public are aware
that special committee of Congress has been
appointed to inquire into the subject of the
public printing. The revelations which have
been made in this journal with regard to the
frightful waste Of, money in this department
have rendered inquiry, if not a thorough change,
quite indispensable. Ii seems that though over
three millions of dollars were spent in printing
for the last two Congresses there yet remains
balance unpaid Of something less than million.
To doubt that great portion Of this money
was positively thrown away and expended in
maintaining corrupt men would be simply pre-
posterous. The committee therefore will be
naturally predisposed to condemn the present
mode of managing the business.
There are two other modes by which the pub
lie printing could be done. The first is by ad-
vertising for tenders, and by adjudging the
printing in lots, to the lowest contractor with
adequate security. The second is by establish
ing government printing Office, and doing all
the printing that is required, just as any private
printer does his
There are crushing objections to the former
scheme. Our experience Of the contract system
in this city shows us how little such q system Is
calculated to promote honest and equal
dealing. IF the public printing at Wash
ington were adjudged by contract, we
should have a repetition Of the frauds We
have seen here Tin cur street cleaning business,
for instance), only on far larger scale. Dis
honesty would pervade the whole arrangement;
fat contracts would be awarded to political par
tizans, or lean contracts would be repudiated
by the contrac tors after the award, and the &c.
curity would turn out worthless. The printing
would neither be done properly, nor cheaply;
and we should be dinned from years end to
years end with the clamor Of disputes about
the printing. The contract sy stem will never do.
If II he the object OF the government TO do
the public printing in the most economical and
best manner, it should establish national print
ing office, aud print everything there. II should
place good and reliable man at the head Of
the Office. and let him engage as many printers,
at the current rates, as there is business TO en-
ploy. In this manner, the public printing need
not cost more than it il worth; it might be well
done; and ii would cease to be source Of cor
ruption and profigacy. We know of no other
plan 10y which the same end could be attained.
