that the financial officers of the Post ONCE Depart

posed, and that the Department is at this time
six months in arrears The President has this
state ment under consideration and will is stated,

an extra session of Congress is to be called.

Commons, agreed in opinion that Lord Cowley S
mission to Vienna would result in peaceful settle

of the French and Austrian troops from Central
Italy.
We learn from San Francisco that the mails for
New York left that port on the 10Th ut instead of
the Dist as has heretofore been the custom when
the 10th of the month fell Sunday. Their arri-
val may therefore, be expected In the Moses Taylor

Is perfectly disgraceful The duties of this de-
parfment have been performed by Mr.. Morton,
under his own immediate direction, and without
contracts as required by the charter and city
ordinances.
Let us look now at the cost. The appropria-
ton for 1858 was $500, O0O exclusive Of the sala-
RES of his officers having the supervision of the
work. In addition to this amount, we learn that
he has also spent $4,000, which is charged In
the deficiencies of 1859, together with fraction
of $4,000, charged to the Croton Aqueduct
Department, for cleaning wharves, piers, &c.
Besides, he has not removed the dirt taken Gom
the inlets to public sewers as required by the
duties of his Office. This work is being done by
the Croton Board, at cost Of not less than
$4,000 or $4,000; so that the cleaning of the
streets under the administration of Mr.. Morton
has cost over s32s,OOO, without including the
salaries of his department, which, if added, would
make the cost of keeping the streets in the con-
dition they were in last summer and fall exceed
S358,000. This large amount would be more
than enough to have every street in New York
swept and cleaned every night in the year, in
stead of only once or twice per month, as has
been done for years past.
Moreover, when Mr. Morton undertook to per-
form these duties the night soil was removed un-
der contract the contractors paying bonus for
the right. Now we learn that these contractors
have thrown up their contracts, and the removal
Of night soil is done under the direction of
Mr.. Morton himself, at cost of thirty thousand
five hundred dollars year.
Not only, then, are the streets left in state
which would be adisgrace to the dirtiest city in
the world, but the cost for so keeping them is
extravaganza and heavy burden upon the tax
payers.
In view of these facts, we think that the COM
munity is justified in charging Mayor Tiemann
with the blame As long as the present incum-
bent is allowed to hold Office, of course he will
perform its duties in his own way. The Mayor, we
believe, shrinks from taking strong measures to
expel him lest he chould create too much sym
patty for him; but this reason is not sufficient to
warrant SO great an injustice to our citizens
as the condition of the streets presents.
We trust, therefore, that Mayor Tiemann will see
the necessity of appointing proper person to
the Office without delay. If the city is allowed
to remain in its present filthy state, the summer
will assuredly bring us pestilence, in addition
to our present discomfort.
