in defending cases apparently the most hopeless.
especially the manner In which he conducted the
defence of Courvoisier, on his trial for the murder
of his master Lord William Russell, endeayoring,
he did, TO cast suspicion upon innocent Persons,
injured his reputation, and earned for him the

viduaIs of their class to parade their names In
the newspapers or attend public meetings Of
an anti slavery hue.
The result Of the recent struggle may be re-
garded as signal victory, for it shows that
this great commercial metropolis is sound at
heart, and will not lend itself to the cause Of
revolution and treason. The Union meeting is
but the effect Of the election. 1t comes rather
late. Had ii been held before it might have
done some good, and those who are now taking
a part in the movement would have gained
more credit for patriotism. But the movers
were too busy electioneering for the disunion
candidates. Now that the election is over, and
that they have failed in that tack, they shift
their sails to try another in the opposite direc-
ton. Such is the power of public opinion.
But there is some reason to fear these Greeks
even when they profess friendship. Their ad
mission into the confidence of Union men is as
dangerous as the reception of the wooden horse
within the gates of ancient Troy.

WHAT ARE THE CRoroN AQUEDUcr MOGULs
GoNo TO Do?--Will the Croton Aqueduct Board
be kind enough to state the reason why they
refuse to supply water to the Central Park
Skating Pond? It is clearly their duty either
to furnish the water or to satisfy the public
that they are justifedin not doing SO. 1.-THE mem
bers of the Board are not fit for their position
they should not be there, and their occupancy
of such important Offices is another illustration
of the evil of making such places elective Of
fees. The Croton Board and the Almshouse
Governors should be appointed by the execu-
tive head of the city government, and remova-
BILE at pleasure. As long as they are wholly
independent of all authority, and responsible
to no one during their term of office, what can
we expect?

The House Organization-The Spells Bar
gain Among the Opposition Factions.
The contest for the House organization at
Washington is assuming definite shape. We
consider the question virtually settled. With
all the mock heroics, coquetting and filibuster-
ing of the little outside opposition clique, it is
now manifest that they are ready for a treaty
upon the basis of the election of John Sher-
man, the republican candidate for Speaker.
This may be accomplished by majority
vote or under the plurality rule. Mr.. Hick-
man, Of Pennsylvania, the political anti-Le-
compton partner Of Forney, has given the hint
to the republicans, in his motion to adopt the
plurality rule, as being much more feasible in
behalf of Sherman than majority election.
Anti Lecomptonites, South Americans, and
even some of the regular democratic church,
might frame valid excuse for voting to elect
by plurality, although its effect would be the
election Of Sherman upon the first ballot, anaa
by republican votes alone. On the other hand
not only the South Americans, but the anti-Le-
comptonites, with one or two exceptions, find
it delicate undertaking, upon any terms, to
vote directly for republican Speaker, and an
endorser of Helpers incendiary budget of ram
pant abolitionism.
We are, therefore, Of the opinion that the
