The REMOVAL OF THE STATE CAPrrAL--The
appointment Of committee of the Legislature
to receive proposals for the removal of the
State capital is an exceedingly popular move
ment Everybody knows that Albany has no
just claims for the position she now holds, and
that New York city presents advantages in
comparably superior. Our Common Council
and our leading citizens should at once respond
to the action of the Legislature. We could af-
ford to erect the Capitol buildings free OF charge
to the State besides donating the ground. This
city is the metropolis, and it ought to be the
capital.

DEMOCRATIC BouRBoNs.-The old fogies of the
democratic party are like the old Bourbons--
they learn nothing and forget nothing. Ever
since this war broke out they have seemed
utterly bewildered. Their action upon the
constitutional amendment shows this. Instead
of voting against that amendment they should
have voted for 1t, both as matter Of principle
and Of policy Now the republicans claim the
credt-which they do not deserve-for this
popular measure. The HERALD originated the
idea of abolishing slavery by an amendment to
the constitution, and the republicans only
adopted our plan.

country is in arms against the claims Of Itah
AT time, too, when the rebellion is 80 near an
end that united effort must soon be made by
the United States to redeem the whole soil Of
America from hostile interference. But the
petty rulers of the Central American repablics
do not seem to comprehend the state Of affairs
around them. They are dark to everything
but their own small jealousies and are gov
erned only by the ignoble incentives Of their
blind ayarice.

BRons or rHs CENTRAL AMERICAN GOVERN

American republics shall never rise out Of the
slough Of petty wranglings, or attain the digni-
ty Of moderately respectable nations. Even at
this moment, when oil the events Of the hour
foresEadow the coming Of . great change In the
destiny Of this continent snd America, North
and South, Is pregnant with ideas Of unity,
combination, common dignity, and common
cause against the cneroachmens Of foreign
Powers, two of the Central American govern
ments--Salvador and Costa Rica-havc again
engaged In n miserable quarrel because the
latter State has offered shelter to an ex-Presi-
dent who Is exiled from the former. IL is
pitiablc TO witness such wretched spirit
among few twopenny States, the leaders OF
which are incapable Of the most ordinary
craftsmanship pedlers in the politics

CONDITION OF THE STREETs.-A correspondent
writes to inquire of us if there is any one in
particular whose business it is clear the streets
of the carcases of animals. He further Says
"On nearly all the streets decayed animal mat
ter greet the eye and olfactories of the passer
by. This is particularly the case in the upper
part of the city. From Nftieth to Fifty-ffth
street they abound. In vacant lot on Fifty
fifth street, between Broadway and Eighth ave-
nue., a dead dog has been laying for two months,
filing the air with foul odors and affording fine
sport to boys" This is very serious matter,
especially while fearful disease is raging in
the city. II the public health is to be preserved,
the least that can be done is to keep the streets
free from such generators Of pestiience. Per-
haps the Citizens Association, if not oyerbur-

New THEATRICAL ENTERpRIsE.-A project was
proposed some time ago, and considerably
discussed, to erect new theatre somewhere up
town, suitable in size construction and location,
for the introduction of Opera Comique-a build
ing not so large as the Academy, in which light
operas might be produced at light expense.
We have heard nothing of late concerning the
progress of this plan; but there is new enter
prise, we understand, now in progress which
will meet all the requirements of the above
project, and, perhaps, in many respects, success
fully supersede it. It is the construction Of
new theatre on some of the up town avenues,
or streets adjacent to them, for the production
mainly Of French plays, vaudevilles and other
light pieces, which may also very properly in
clude comic opera. The plan Of this building
oontemplates the division of the interior into
private boxes, where families may be afforded
that privacy which will invest the evenings en-
joyment with all the .agreeableness of home,
and comprise in fact host of pleasant re-
unions within one building.
This Is an excellent idea. Such theatre
will I'LL almost the only vacuum now remaining
in the list of our places of amusement, and will
put us on an equal footing with the European
capitals in this respect We have already .
splendid house for Italian opera in the
Academy; but 1t is not suited for the lighter
French operas, which have such charm about
them as to render them indispensable to the
FULL measure Of metropolitan enjoyment We
have theatres in all locations, and suited
to all tastes and classes. The French thea
tre at Niblo's, under its excellent man.
agement, has done much to cultivate taste
for the French drama, and has increased very
considerably the number OF those who would
patronise it, if we had a suitable theatre of the
character proposed. There can be no complaint
of want ofappreciation for the drama in every
shape and tongue, among our citizens, for every
theatre in the city is crowded nightly. Money
flows into the treasurers' Golfers like water, and
the managers are becoming as rich and as unc-
tuous as petroleum nabobs. But we want just
such theatre up town upon the plan suggest
ed, conveniently located and conducted efn-
ciently. Within its walls may be comprised
comic opera, French dramas, vaudevilles, and
other entertainments of light character which
no other house in the metropolis now presents.
1t will not only prove fortune to those who
embark in the enterprise, but will furnish a
luxury which our most refined citizens will not
be slow to appreciate.
