INSPECTORS WANTED.

A recent act of the Legislature, with q view
TO secure greater purity of elections, changed
the method of appointing Inspectors OF Registry
and Elections. The Supervisors, who formerly
chose the Inspectors did their work inefficient
", if not corruptly. We got moro had men
than good in places where bad men did meal
culablc mischief A fraudulent agreement be-
tween inspectors and canvassers was enough TO
turn the result of any election, and such tam
perings were frequent. 1t was found neces'
sary to take the power from the Supervisors IN
New-York and put it in the hands Of the Police
Commissioners. and in order to insure fairness,
the law cqualized the number Of appointeaS
from each party, and provided for four Inspect
ors and two Canyassers in each election DIS
trict. Assuming, then, that the six were ialrly
divided, they could watch each other comiorta'
bly,, each halt scrutinizng votes in the interest
of its own party, and the whole thus taking
care of the interest of the public.
This law proceeded on the assumption that
public spirited citizens could readily be found
TO execute it. We hear with surprise and re-
rret that il is difficult to induce the appontees
to accept their duties. The Police Commission
ers take pains to select capable and honest men,
but if the capable and honest men won't serve,
what are We TO dol Obviously, somebody must
take the places, and if the Commissioners try
for good men and can't get them, they will be
driven to appoint the old hacks who found the
Office profitable to themselves at the expense OF
the public. under the old law. We hope 1t
won't come to that, but in order that IT may
not. some readiness for duty must be shown by
other citizens 1t is not a great deal TO give
up one day for the sake of an honest election III
this city.
This Ike other reforms, should be made a
personal matter. 1t is not an excuse that
DAVIS service is inconvcniont to business man
who receives an invitation from the Commits
soners to act as Inspector Unhapply, 1t Is
the men who are most wanted who are most
| likely to decline-the men to whom the fee
which the law provides is no induccmcnt. Let
sense of duty be their inducement. If that Is
not strong enough, and if the Commissioners
really fail to secure the appointees they desire
we are not sure but it might he well to publish
a list of those who decline, in order to prove
that an effort was made to put proper men III
these Offices. And still, we think the Commits
sioners will succeed if they perseyere.

A writer says that while the Southern menwlll
not consent to negro suffrage, everything else the
negro wants will be accorded to him. This sup
poses, in the first place, that the SouthernerS
have granted the negro everything else, that
emancipation was their act and deed, that the
negro is free by their generosity, but that hay-
ing done so much these magnanimous people
can do more. If the negroes had waited I'M
til the Southerners had given them their free
dom, they would have died in Slavery. They
were freed in spite of the South, and they Will
have their rights also. We may have to wait
little longer, but it is coming.

but it was Immediately after being informed Of
the action of Gen. Osterhaus that the Presi'

the order of Gen. Slocum, indorSing the militia
proclamation of Sharkey, and handing the State
over to the unchecked control Of the Provisional
Government.
These statements are made, evidently in good

SIT IVS (.

We do not want to mix in other peoples
auarrels, but we do feel very considerable
desire for information. 4 few days since We
gave our friends some facts in reference to the
recent Democratic Convention. showing how
the Bamburncrs suddenly had obtained power
AT Albany. and after the fashion OF South Amer-
can Presidents and Mexican Emperors, imme-
diately cut the throats Of everybody who op-
posed them. We illustrated this by showing
how ruthlessly and speedily the heads OF Scy-
mour, Haskin, Brady, Clark and Marble had
been chopped of and thrown into basket, that
no one with Hunker blood or lineage had a
rhost of chance, or, indeed, the chance of
ANYTHING except being political ghosts for the
remainder Of their days, that Seymour's per-
.urbed spirit was walking its midnight rounds
in Onondaga, that Green's shadow, armed from
head to foot, even as in life, when he threatened
war upon Lincoln hirelings, was seen around the
asles of Tweddle Hall, that llaskn's phantom
was itfully haunting the nights Of the Harlem
River, and might be noticed any midnight wan
dering about Kings Bridge, and that Brady was
50 ellectually disposed Of that even his burly
ghost couh not be found. This sudden war
upon the Hunkcr chiefs has distre scd the
Hunker followers so dreadiully that there have
been serious thoughts of holding another Con-
vention and nominating new men. The hungry
people, Barnbuners and Hunkers, according TO
Purdy are eGcctually hungry, have been pour
ing all sorts Of oil upon the waters by insisting
that our statements were untrue that nothing
but harmony prevailed at Albany, and that in
Strengthening lIunkers and manufacturing war
platforms, Seymour and Green and Cassidy and
Brady and Marble and Iiaskin were eminenty
conspicuous
If the Hunkcrs are happy in their death, far
be it from Us TO disturb their ghosts. But we
do not care to be put off by adjectyes. The
HeraM admits in its broad way that THE TEIB-
INES statements were true, that there was
some frightiul buichering in Twcddlc Hall, and
that the butcher was Haskin. We all know
that Haskin is a bloodthrsty gentleman that
he once carried a pistol, and did cory service in
throttling James Buchanan But he subSe-
got in with Belmont and Barlow, and
invested heavily in Mcclellan stock allowed
Marble-who was the Ketchum OF the Chicago
sell for him, and los, so largely
that nothing but poverty kept him from going

Albany and was waited upon by his gay young

broken friend the editor-who had additional
stock and nj least two hundred editorials with
the word Resolved preiixcd-and desired TO
manage other brokerage jobs, the Sage OF Har-
lem flights could not see it. lie did not be-

the fact that each contraband in Government

men, benefited or not by the Government, pay

We find in Tile Cincinnati COmmercial Of the
18Th. letter from Jackson, Miss, which THROW,
new light on the Sharkey-SlOcum CONTROVERSY
and the action Of the President interference t.
the State militia organized by Provisional
Governor Sharkey. The proclamation calling
for the militia was issued August II, while
the Convention was in session. Before the
Convention adjourned the President tele-
graphcd Provisional Governor Sharkey: 81
would advise you not to organize the State
militia at present; not until the machinery
of civil government has been more perfectly
restored" The President added that Gen.
Slocum would furnish all the troops needed
to prevent lawlessnesS and crime. 1t is
stated that Sharkey was satisfied with this and
acknowledged that his action had been prema-
ture, and would have been content had the mat
Ter there rested
Gen. SlOcum, however, as soon as he saw the
Sharkcy proclamation, issued his order, since
printed, and known as General Order No. %,
directing his subordinates to disregard the proc
lamation. The terms of the order gave ofIensc
to Provisonal-Covernor Sharkey, and he tel
egraphed the situation to the President. The
Convention, meanwhile, had adjourned, re-
ceiying the approval Of President johnson.
Shortly after a case arose which further COM
plicated matters. A negro had been murdered;
the municipal tribunal Of Jackson, which was
O Rebel court perpetuated by Sharkey, had
taken cognzance of the case; and Gen. Oster.
haus, under general orders from Washington,
seized tho criminal for trial by military court.
Gen. Osterhaus pointed to the fact that the local
tribunal had just acquitted two men guilty Of
numbering negroes, as juStifying nd requiring
his action.

Canada is becoming depopulated. This in
itself is Il sure sign that the Union is receiving
the mass of its emigration. The exodus has
been 80 serious as 80 create a call in some quar-
tiers upon the attention Of Government; but
young Canada continues focking to the Dor
der. The Bishop Of Toronto lately gave rs lis
reasons for not rebuilding his cathedral. the
great losses which his diocese has sustained in
numbers. In I-Gl this Catholic diocese had a
congregation of 42,C00; but according TO the
census now given by the Bishop it does not
contain more than 10000. Toronto City from
having 5000 Catholics las diminished to 600.
Not one, but many Canadian journals, make
the same complaint, and the emigration,
though mostly from among the Irish, seems to
extend to other sccts and classes Of working
men. "The people," says Montreal Journal,
"arc leaving us by tens Of thousands" This
seems to be no phenomenon but only the
reasonable out-working of that natural law
which seeks every good opening, and which,
some day, may influence Canada itself to come
into the Union.
