Of danger, or one thirstiag for his

between them, got up and approached
Arndt, who, supposing that he WAS
about TO pass him and enter the bar

Instead Of this, when abreast 1T him.
Field exclaimed: !" You damn -.

TIE PROGRAMME or SUMNER SESsAroSs.--
The opening scene in the drama Of metropoli-
tan summer sensations was enacted on Saturday
with an eclat and brilIiancy which equalled
the highest expectations. The curtain rose
upon The en,ree Of the japanese Embassy, and
presented a spectacle which, for novelty and
enthusiasm, has never been equalled in New
York.
II was thought that the sensation programme
would prove too crowded, and that the rapid
succession Of great sights would spoil the in
terest In some Of them, and damp the ardor Of
the popuiace; but, by a lucky circumstance, IL
turns out that the programme as arranged Is
about as perfect as the best friends Of the
New Workers could desire. Had the Great
Eastern sailed on her appointed day she would
have been here of the same time ~ the
japanese, and The interest In either one event

60 TO establish creditable degree Of energy
with the duty of administering the laws From
the GLOWING facts, which we gather from official
sources, some idea may be formed of the amount
of hard work which devolYes on our city Judges.
Those who are unacquainted with the extent
of crime in New York will be somewhat
startled by them.
In the Court of Sessions, before Judge Rus
sell, there were, in January last, forty convic-
tons. Seventeen of the prisoners were sent to
the State prison, nineteen TO the Penitentiary,
two to the City prison, and zines were imposed
upon them In February there were, in the
same court, sixtysix convictions. Twenty-se-
ven of the parties were sent to the State pri-
son, twenty-five to the enitentiary, two to the
House of Refuge, and fines were imposed on
twelve. At the February Oyer and Terminer
there were seventeen convictions, Of which two
were for murder, ten for granddaughter,
and two for assault with intent TO kill. Thir-
teen prisoners were sent to the State prison, one
to the City prison, one to the Penitentiary, and
two were sentenced to be executed. At the
Sessions in March there were fftysix convic-
tions. Twenty-four prisoners were sent to the
State prison, sixteen to the Penitentiary, two to
the City prison. four to the House of Refuge,
and zines were imposed on fourteen. At the
April Sessions there were twenty-six convic-
TONS Ten prisoners were sent TO the State pri-
son, eleven to the Penitentisry, one to the House
of Refuge, and fines were imposed on five. A
the April Oyer and Terminer there was one con-
viction and the party was sent to the State prison.
At the Sessions in May there were seventy-six
convictions. Forty-two of the parties were
sent 10 the State prison, twenty-three to the
Penitentiary, four to the House Of Refuge, FIVE
to the City prison, and fines were imposed on
three.
The above shows an aggregate of about
three hundred convictions In courts of rec ord
during the first five months Of the present
year. Besides these there were, at the Special
Sessions held in January, l,207 convictions; in
February, 1921; in March, l,677, and in April,
,703;-making grand total of offenders con-
victed in the Court of Special Sessions during
the above term of 5,7SS. Judging from these
facts, we are led to the gratifying conclusion
that, notwithstanding occasional failures of
justice, the law has been, on the whole, fairly
yindicated during the period covered BY these
statistics.

ton is made Of stipulation that the troops
should not be landed at some other point Of the
Sicilian coast. Chivalrous as he is, We think it
very improbable that Garibaidi would omit
providing for these two points, the more parti-
cularly as he stands urgently in need Of artil-
lery for his descent On the main land.
1t is not likely that any further effort will
be made by the government troops garrison
ing the other towns on the island to resist
the authority of Garibaldi. 1t is more probable
that the fall of Palermo has been the signal for
them to lay down their arms and abandon a
struggle which Lanza's defeat must have taught
them is hopeless. Thus, in very little more than
three weeks from the date of his landing, the
Italian hero has made himself master of the
island and virtual arbiter of the destnies of the
Nespolitan kingdom. The London Times,
which has alternately petted and sneered at
him, may well say that such feat of arms has
been seldom related in history.

WHAT TIE MAYOR AND ALBssEUN CAs kxD
OUGHT TO Do.-The judicial solution Of the dif-
fculty concerning the City Chamberlain, By
which Mr.. Stout has been removed from that
Office, has a very important bearing upon our
municipal affairs, far beyond any merely per-
sonaA consideration with regard to the indi-
vidual who may or may not occupy the posi-
ton Of guardian of the city funds The deei-
sion of the Supreme Court has established To
principle that the Mayor and Board of Aldr-
men have conjointly full power, under the
charter, 10 remove for cause the heads of Ill
the departments in the city government, with
the exception of the two officials who are elect
ed by the people, namely, the ComptrollersaA
Corporation Counsel, aud replace them By
moreIe68cient persons. Thus, the executiveand
highest branch of the legislative department Of
the municipality can, if they choose, provi6 us
with proper officers to discharge the puhlicdu-
ties, and with this power In their hands hey
should, of course, be held responsible for tho
conduct and character Of the men to whom hey
entrust the administration of affairs.
The prime difficulty in our city government
has always been that its business is entruted
to set of small politicians, and that the gpeA
of Office and the intrigues of party have bad
more weight in regulating the appointing p~er
than any consideration of the efficiency ofthe
appointees or the public welfare The ASoe
and Aldermen, it appears now beyond pes-
ton, can give us good staff Of officials If hey
are 80 disposed, by removing all incompetent
or dishonest persons; and If that power y ex-
ercised judiciously, and with view to thepub-
lie good, we will have reason to rejoice tht the
courts have confirmed them in it; but if, d the
contrary, it should be exercised for mere ,arty
purposes, to exalt one clique at the expese of
another, or for the removal of competent and
faithful men through any mean partisan mo-
tives, no good whatever can come out 4 1t.
BY removing all the rotten sheep from themu-
nicipal fold, and by retaining in Office tiose
who are faithful to their trusts and qualification
their positions-snch, for example, as the re-
sent City Inspector and Street COMMISSIONS
without any regard to political differences, he
Mayor and Aldermen can do much towads
procuring an honest and economical city g.
vernment; and more than this, they may place
the affairs of the metropolis upon such foo-
ing before the election of the next Legislature
as will insure the selection of Legislative
body at Albany who may be able and willing
restore to the municipal government all the
rights, privileges and authority Of which 1t ha1
been 80 scandaIously robbed by the last and
previous Legislatures.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY on THE SUNDAY Law
We see that the warfare against the republican
party, on account of its pet measure, the SUM-
day law, Is maintained with rigor by the Ger
man journals, and that the republican papers, In
their endesvor TO worry themselves out of the
responsibility Of the act, as q piece of party
policy, are, as usual with habitual falsi6-
ers, sinking still deeper in the mire
The republican journals cannot deny that the
argument is against their assumption from tie
start. The men who formed the republicn
party came from pious clique in this country,
who have been for the last forty years ende.-
vorug to legalize their peculiar religious view,.
They belong to the order of the person whs
wrote to the Post Office Department to reques,
that his letters might clay over on the Sab
bath. They have not only attempted to stop
Sunday travelling, but they have always been
in favor of laws which tend to deprive the citi-
zen OF his right TO enjoy bis leisure hours in
such manner as he may think bes provided
he respects the public peace and
respects the rights Of his neighbors. public
opinion on this matter Is liberal enough, and
public opinion Is decidedly agains, the action
of the republican party In the matter Of the
Sunday law. But the last Legislature paid n
sort of respect. TO public opinion upon this e
any other subject, as our readers are very vel
aware. The Legislature Of 1860 was three
fourths republican, and the most corrupt on D.
cord. II is possible that some Of the pious leal'
ers of the party may have frightened the mes
bers into something like twinge of conscience,
and that they thought, by enacting q Sundy
law, to get absolution for their sins. Ins,e,d,
however, Of doing penance In their own proper
persons, they laid the lash on the backs of he
working classes in the metropolis. They nay
rest assured that they will be paid back With
interest at the polls next November.
