A REMINIscENcE OF THE WAR OF 1872. The recent disaster to British arms at Peiho has recalled the capture of the U. s. friga,e President, during the last war with England, in consequence of the con- nection of Admiral Hope with both affairs. The President was captured by British squadron off New York, in January, 1915, one of the ships being the frigate Endy- mion, commanded by Capt. Cope, who as Admiral, was recently repulsed so severe ly by the Chinese at Peiho.

gsag A writer in the Rochester (N. Y.) Democrat denies the impossibility of a person with resolution, determination and perseverance breaking himself of the habit of opium eating. He is now an old man of seventy, and for four years has not used the drug in any shape, though before that he had been an opium eater for forty years. When he commenced breaking himself of the habit, he was using the opium at the rate of eighty grains per day. and it took him about two years to accomplish his purpose. Cannot inveterate tobacco chewers and whisky drinkers cure themselves of the habit in the same way?

THE CAPTURE OF SCHAMYL-Schamyl the Circassian hero, who figured about as extensively during the Crimean war as Garibaldi did in the Italian war, and in much the same way, has been captured al last by the Russians. After an assault upon Cunt, the Russians were victorious and the mountain chieftain, with his sons and family, fell into their hands. The Russian loss was very small. Schamyl has waged war against the conquerors for upwards of thirty years.

RAILWAYS In OUR CITY.

Whether public opinion is yet ripe for the
Inevitable substitution Of railway cars for omnl-
buses on all our great thorOughfares, We do not
decide; if it is not, it may be well to wait year
or co. That substitution Is 30 palpabls necessity
that we are quite willing to wait for it. We only
protest against any more piecemeal work.
Let the next act authorizing railway in the
streets of our City provide for all the railways that
will soon be needed, and provide for the perfect
accommodation of the travelling public. Rsther
than have anythiDg done so that it will require to
be done over again year or two hence, we prefer
delay.
These seem to as to be the essential features of
q railway system for the City:
|. The omnibuses to be entirely superseded, or at
least excluded from Broadway.
3. Either q double track in Broadway, or
sipele track with counterpart through parallel
streets-the cars to run down Broadway from
A. NJ. to P. NJ and up that street for the residue
of each day.
3. A single track to each Of the great Ferries,
with car running down thereon, and directly up
again, cay once in FIVE or ten minutes.
4. Either three-cent fare in Broadway up to
Union Square, or uniform 6ve-cent fare inciud-
ing ride by omnibus through lateral streets 70 any
part Of the City.
OF course, this system involves the destruction
of large amount of Omnibus property, waich
will have to be paid for, either BY cOncedng tho
Railroad charter to the Omnibus proprietors or BY
,elDg the grant at auction and paying the Omnl-
bus men out of the proceeds. Only let the adjust
ment be essentially equitable and we are Indifferent
as TO the mode.
We do not know that any thing is to be gained
by dtie1ing TO the judgment Of our present CON-
mon Council. Abstrsc.ly, we should say that
measure condemned By that body would be more
likely to be just and bene6cent than one approved
by it. But We trust nothing will be done In the
premises which does not meet the appreciation Of .
majority of our City's representatives st Albany
They are twenty. one in number and ought to under.
snnd the whole matter quite a. well as the Alder.
men and Councilman. As they are mainly Demo-
eis.s, whatever q majority Of them may sanction
cannot plauaibly be charged to the account Of
/" Black Republican corruption" We trust, then,
that tbose whom City has sent to represent her
at Albany will freely consult, and compare opin.
ions, and decide TO DO something or nothing wisa
regard to City Railroads. If majority Of thon
