DIR. CHEEvERs CHURCH TROUBLES SETTLED
1t will be observed by our report in another CO.
lumn that the ca parte council called by the MEM
bers recently dismissed from DR.. Cheever's
church without regular letters for which they had
applied has come to the conclusion that the
church is in the wrong, and the complaining
members in the right.
1t would seem from this that DR.. Cheever, in
his extreme anxiety for the maintenance of the
rights of the negro, has ignored the rights of
the white members of his own church; at least
so says the er parte council Of the learned d.
vines Uwu denomination. 1t strikes us that the
more natural way would be to give the white
man bis due first, and then look out for Sambo.
However, we may not be posted on modern phi
lanthr0pY.

Is THERE ANY OPPOSITION TO THE ACouIsI-
TON OF CuBA?-We have been watching atten-
lively the course of discussion in Congress, aud
before the country at large, on the Sidell propo-
sition looking to the acquisition of Cuba; and
although the men opposed to the administration
have talked a great deal against Mr. Slidell's
bill, not one of them is opposed to the acquisition
of the island. Seward holds as political AK
ION that it gravitates to the Union. Foot, Hale,
Crittenden and Thompson in Congress, and Bolts
before the people Of Virginia. all acknowledge
that the acquisition must come, only that the
present time is not opportune, and that they are
opposed to its being acquired by Mr.. Buchanan
These objections are nothing more than the ca
wills of the spirit of faction. The fact is-and the
opposition leaders know it well-there is no OPP
position among the people to the acquisition of
Cuba, except with a few abolition fanatics, who
oppose everything but their own ramrod doc
trines of disunion and destruction.

THE TRANSFER OF THE DEMOCRATIC ORGAN.
1t stated in political circles in this city, by those who
ought to know and who well posted such matters,
that Mr.. Libby is partner with Mayor Wood in the
Daily Ne concern and that the arrangement is that the
hand organ to be played for both whatever tune they
may think proper to dance in turn The programme is
said be- that Wood goes for Governor of this State in
$780, and expects to be carried through by the enthus
Of the Presidential election, while Libby 80 often dis
appointed in his ambitious aspirations hopes at last
gain the top of the ladder as next Mayor.

The bulk of the black republicans of the House

a great article; but circumstances alter cases.

easurer, 1t will be seen, is placed in the
hands of the Comptroller which is mistake.
That, and all other important Offices in the
Finance Department perhaps, that Of
the Comptroller himself should be filed by the
Mayor, and the incumbents should be RESPONSE
BILE to him alone for the proper discharge Of their
duties. This is the only method by which q
check can be established in the management Of
our financial affairs Another bill was intro
duced yesterday to place the appointment of the
Corporation Counsel in the hands Of the Mayor
instead of making it an elective Office as it is
now.
This array bf legislative business relative to
the government of this city will show what rich
placers exist in the metropolis for the specula
tive industry of the lobby. 1t must be remem-
bered, that although these various bills regu-
latng our local government may be introduced
by members from the city, yet they must be
passed upon by members from the rural districts
who know nothing and care less about the in.
terests Of the city Of New York. But some
measures are being taken to arrest the course Of
this kind of legislation, and it is time there
should be. A committee of the Boards of the
Common Council had q meeting on Wednesday
evening for the purpose of consulting on the
matter Two prominent gentlemen of this city
attended, but further proceedings have been de-
ferred to Monday next, at which time we hope
that the property owners, and Others interested
in the government of the city, will be present,
and define some plan to rescue New York from
the mischievous influences of our Albany legis-
latOrs.

rant and manager, Wood can wind dozen such
easy and comfortable men as Seymour round hl4
finger.
The special organ of Mr.. Wood is the Daay
Ne,cs of this city, a very drowsy organ for such
an active man; very poor organ weak
wishy-washy concern. Of late, however, it has
fickered up little; but it must do still better
OF il will inevitably flicker out. The soecia o.
gan of Mr.. Seymour is the Albany Argus or Agas,
or both-a somewhat obscured, dusty and meta
physical organ; great chopper of patty logic
and party consistency; an old fogy or gan, and
an enormous consumer of pap-post Office pap
lobby pap land all sorts of spoon victuals Be-
tween these two organs, therefore, the palm of
superiority must be given to the N.cs; for it
does exhibit some of the signs of metropolitan
position while its Albany competitor has de-
generated into the limited sphere of post Office
pensioner of an inland town.
With the advantages thus indicated in favor
of our ex-Mayor, the least that our ex-
Governor Seymour has to dread from Mr.. Wood
is a rival democratic delegation at Charleston
Doubtless similar rivalries are going on in the
party camp at Washington and elsewhere, in re-
ference to many other competing State managing
politicians for the great game of the Convention
We know, too that the different leaders and
managers Of the republican camp are equally
busy in their plans and plots to compass this or
that delegation to their Convention. And so Of
the Know Nothings Americans and old line
wings of the third party. All these different
movements, on all sides, indicate three parties,
three national conventions, three Presidential
tickets and scrub race for the succession. We
repeat, too, that from these secret intrigues and
movements among the democracy the party
or managers of the party, however d.
vided and broken up in its public &C
ton on the public questions of the day, are
still within reach of the cohesive power of the
public plumber" and that so long as scheming
politicians can agree to disagree upon this or
that public measure they are pretty sure, when
it comes to the pinch, to agree upon the main
question Of the spoils.
But on the other hand, so far have these plot
ting Congressional leaders for the sugar plums
Of the Charleston Convention disregarded their
public obligations to the administration, and
their duties to the country, that we very much
fear, when the time shall arrive for the test it
will be found that, though the Convention
managers and spoilsmen are all prepared for
union and harmony, the ranks of the party have
been too seriously broken to be repaired We
must watch the progress of events before the
curtain, but more particularly the controlling
movements behind the scenes.
