THE VALUE OF THE Po1LcE.-There are now
before the criminal courts Of this city about
twenty seven cases Ct murder-a heavy calen-
dar, considering that at the last session of the
Court of Oyer and Terminer some six or seven
other murder cases have just been disposed Of.
The criminal statistics of the metropolis for the
last year have shown greater amount of
crimes of a grave character than any previous
period; yet certain fanatics and certain fools
would maintain that our miserable police sys-
tenn is perfect. The only true test Of an EN-
cient police is the repression of crime; aud so
far from crime decreasing in this community,
the records of our courts show an alarming
increase. The only apparent use of our police
system, as a. present conducted, is to afford

MORALITY OF THE NEW CLERK' s ApPoINTEEs.-
The appointees of the Clerk of the House of
Representatives are beginning to show their
greed for spoil very early, fact which, in con-
uection with the rush after the printing spoils
manifests tha. that they must have been awfully
hungry. We perceive statement that one OF
the Clerks newly appointed subordinates has
already bolted for Europe with considerable
sum of money, which he raised among hi
friends for the purpose of specializing in Pos'
Office certificates. This is but the opening de
reicpement of the speciality of the appointees
Of such an individual as the new Clerk of toe
House, aud we may expect to see them al
festhering their nests ia the quickest possible
time, and then running away.

Great National Washing Day in
Congress.

In the British houses Of Parliament they
have perhaps half dozen times in the year,
what are called :" field days. when the best ora
tors, both upon the treasury and the opposition
benches, bring oil their powers to bear upon
the pending question. 1t is upon such occa.
sions as these that British forensic oratory has
attained its high place in the estimation of
the literary as well as the political world
Coming from the same stock, and educated
after the same general system, fed upon Burke,
and Pitt, and Charles James Fox, and cotem.
porary with Derby Disraeli and Russell, our
American orators might naturally be expected
to have caught some of the fire which has so
often lighted up the halls of Westminster
How far the patriots and sages now assembled
in Congress at Washington answer this very
reasonable expectation may be ascertained by
perusal of the debate in the House on Tues
day. upon the resolutions of Mr.. Hoard re
publican member from this State. Mr.. Hoards
resolutions are pendant to those presented
by Dir. Covode on Monday. Neither Mr.
Heard nor Mr.. Covode, nor the members of the
House generally, can appreciate the remark of
the first Napoleon upon the absurdity of wash
ing the dirty linen of q dynasty in the eyes of
the world. On the contrary, our national
laundrcsses insist upon Haunting the foul rags
directly under the nose of all Christendom. no
matter how foul may be the stencil which they
create.
And so, instead Of field day in the House,
there was 4 washing day. Mr.. Hoards bundle
of dirty linen was contributed in part by two
members, Hickman, Of Pennsylvania, and
Adrain. of New Jersey. A long while ago
these Spartan brothers said, Ia debate, that an
attempt upon their virtue, rs public men, had
been made by the agents of a corrupt and
wicked administration. II appears that the
distinguished Brady. the Joseph of the New
York Board Of Aldermen, is not without his
peers. Jersey sends patriot a. incorruptible
as the conseript father OF the Fifteenth ward;
and Pennsylvania is not without one member
whose probity is proof against the wiles Of
power or the seductions of patronage True,
m the case Of the virmous Brady we have al
legged facts and specifications which are not
vouebsafed by the others.
We know, or at least Brady tells us, that he
was offered two thousand dollars for his vote,
and that he spurned The bride. The statements
of the Congressman are very vague. They do
not say what they We're 10 have. whether money,
and how much, or foreign missions or places a.
home. and If So where and what To be sure
the Pennsylvania patrio. does not say tia. he
was offered "more than be was WORTH But no
facts can be drawn from so loose an assertion
Mr. Hickman may be absurdly modest, as well
as savagely virtuous {Penusylvania politicians
usually cultivate those qualities to the highes,
point OF perfection), and may set too small a
value upon himself; or, on the contrary, he may
be one of thosepersons whom IL would be ruinoas

market valuation The statement Of the Jersey

INCREASE OF CRIME IN THE CrrY.-When we
view the alarming increase of crime around us.
1t is some consolation to observe that the adj
ministraton of justice is becoming more vigor-
Gus and appropriate to the condition of the city
in this regard. Thus, in the case of Lane, the
other day, who was convicted of swindling the
Fulton Bank, we saw for the first time bank
defaulter sent to the State prison, which evinces
determination on the part Of our courts to

Votes for lincoln Throwed Away.

:
It is growing more and more manifest
that every vote cast for Abraham Lin
coin viii be thrown away He cannot be
elected, because New. York and q number
of other free States will vote against him.
But the loss of New York alone renders
his defeat certain. If the election should
60 to the House or devolve upon the Sem
ate, there is no hope for him. Why then
should conservative republicans, who re-
ally have no faith in the party, throw away
their votes upon candidate whose cause
is so utterly desperate4
But votes for Lincoln will be thrown
away for another reason. His support
ers really urge no distinctive principle in
this campaign, but the single impractica.
BILE one of congressional intervention.
They even differ among themselves as
to whether this principle is in issue or not.
But if it is. it cannot be carried through
Congress, even if it were possible for the
Republicans to elect their candidate. And
if they fail in electing him, as they GER
tainly viii, Congressional Intervention will
become, as Webster said of the United
States bank, "an obsolete idea." &c.,
1t is therefore clear that votes cast for
Lincoln will avail nothing, either towards
electing Republican President. or sus-
tainlng principle. But there is a can
didate for the Presidency before the peo-
pie whose principles will be sustained, and
whose election is growing every day more
and more certain. Votes cast for him will
tell in the coming November election, and
will 60 to sustain the great principle oi
non-intervention, which is safe, practice
BILE and democratic--apd one that will
produce union, harmony and prosperity
in our country. That candidate is STE
