ysterious Influence of tho Heraid-Hcl
Gate TO be Blown Up.

Mysterious Influence Of the Heraid-Hcll
Gate to be Blown Up.
According to our contemporaries the HERALD
exercises mysterious influence upon all mum
dane affairs and sometimes, it may be said--as
in the case Of the late meteoric shower-upon
affairs among the stars also. Some Of the
newspapers say that the HERALD controls all
the elections by contraries electng the candi-
dates 1t opposes and defeating those it sup
ports. This is certainly mysterious kind Of
influence to exercise, but we suppose the sue
cessfal candidates have no objection to IL.
We observe that the HERALD has brought its
influence to bear successfully upon another SUBJ
ject of material advantage to the commercial
and maritime interests ofNew York. Our arti-
cles upon the distractions in He'll Gate have
drawn the attention Of the authorities at Wash
ington to the necessity Of removing them, and
1t IL proposed that Congress should make an
appropriation for that purpose. tits suggested
that the rocks which obstruot the channel shall
be blown up by nitro-glycerine, tho immense
explosive properties Of which compound are
known by experiment to be amply sufficient to
accomplish that work.
II is hardly necessary to recount the advan-
tages to be derived from opening this channel.
II would not only afford more ready and safe
entrance from the sea than the passage over
the bar at Sandy Hook and along the Long
Island coast, which Is always attended with
more or less danger during the hurricane
months, but it would decrease the voyage from
Europe by at least hundred miles If vessels
of large tonnage could reach the city by way
of the Long Island Sound.
Nor are the advantages of clearing the chan
mel at this point confined solely to navigation.
The effect would also be felt in extending the
line OF wharves up the island on the East river
side and spreading the commerce in that direc.
ton, which is now crowded into q compare
end OF the city. Property up town would In
crease in value to a considerable extent If we
had commodious ingress and egress by way
Of the Sound. This channel once made avail
able, the next thing in order would be q re-
construction Of our harbor defences, which are
at present miserably defective, but which could
be made perfect by the exercise Of sound judg-
ment at very moderate outlay. We hope,
therefore, that Congress will give carly atten.
ton 10 this subject, which is Of really serious
Importance TO this city and to the country
generally. We have always held that the diff
culties in the way Of clearing the channel at
He'll Gate were not uncomfortable. and We SEQ
no reason why the rocks that now render II so
dangerous and cut of this port from one Of Its
most desirable outlets to the ocean should not
be made to yield to the potent influence of
nitro-glycerine

STAMPING Our.-The London newspapers re-
commend that the Fenian instruction In Ire
land should be stamped out" The Times
suggests that II should be treated like the cattle
plague-that is, BY killing or oil the diseased
cattle The method employed to stay the cattle
plague was first to slaughter all the animals
afnicted with the disease and then to draw q
Gordon round the district and kill all the cattle
that might possibly have come in contact with
them. II this course Is to be pursued In Ire
land all the Fenians will have to be stamped
out" 6rst and every one whs comes 10 contact
with them must be slaughtered afterwards An
this class would include nearly the whole popu-
iation Of ireland, the British government would
have 10 renew with hundred fold atrocity the
massacres Of Cromwell and lay the whole
island desolats.

A BRITISH CABINET MEETING on THE ALABAMA
CAsE-It appears that Mr.. Adams, our Minister
at London, has reopened the Alabama case
and that meeting OF tn ~.-s,lish Cabinet "will
soon be held, when the subject will receive the
consideration which its Importance deserves"
We presume that, looking to that old Celtic
idea that "England's difficulty is Ireland's
opportunity" the Derby government begins to
realize the fact that this is not the time for
difficulty with the United States. II Is, how
ever, the very time for our government to push
these Alabama claims and the question Of neu-
trail rights and neutral obligations to definite
aud conclusive settlement
