Markets and Residence.

10 de Editor of Tae N Y. Tribune
SIR In your issue OF yesterday you devote
considerable space in denunciation Of Eli introduced
by me- preventing nOncsdents from holding sards 10
our markets Ny reasons for advocating such
arc: Jerseynen monopolze them 70 the great di5ai
vantage Of our citizens who taxed and assumo
all the duts and spon5ibiitics Necessary TO manaiH
our State and local Government.
Our markets arc Ike no other business by reason OF
their limitation for persons wishing to engage in euy
other business liberty TO seec. anything or any
locality that capital can command Them freely In-
vito because In doing the prosperity and greatness
Of our city Is acsarcod, and the burden of taxation ia
corrcspoadingy decreased upon each individual.
It's a notorious fact that citizens are taxed or
standing upon the Immaculate soil OF jersey. And
tAey also refuse to perform act of humanity which
the great commercial Interests Of metropolis de-
mald. by retuang TO sell an isolated piece OF sandy
ground to build hospital for sanitary and quarantine
purposes. l you'd not inAIct such long explanation,
but 10 place the motives which actuated me- granting
that they viii not meet your entire appreciation yet
deem due to myself because Of M regard for your
opinion on all matters.
Jn reference 70 middlcmen, you viii fad that those
sandholeIs are not producers and therefore have 10
advantage over citizens. Ny bill docs Lot pre-
wagons from standing in he street, and these are.
in ny opinion, the Only men HON We can at all cassas
courder q. 1 remain Truly yours. j. a. LioNe.
Assc75ly Chamber, Aibauy, Feb. n, 1865.
Mr. Lyons finds our Market system very
bad, and proposes to make it decidedly worse.
We are now almost at the mercy Of the middle
men; he would make Us quite SO. We are hot
going thst road.
What We need is a grea. Public Market,
whcrcinto every cCuutryman could drive his
wagon and sell out his turkey, poir Of chickens,
turnips, celery and other notions to whomsoever
might choose to buy OF him-not ct an hour or
two in early morning only, but at any time
throughout the day. Then we want all our
present one-horSe markets aholiShed-Sold ont
to pay part of our City debt. Meantime, LET
Us build no more Onc-horse markets, and pass
no such foolish, tyranncGl bills as Mr.. Lyons's.
Until we can make things better, let Us be care
tul 10 make them no worSe.-Ed. Inb.

THE RsCHMOND COUNTY "BSNG' >
SMASHED.

Richmond County hes long paid the penalty
Of it, neighborhood to tho City Of New-Aork by
being also the victim of an ignorant, corrupt,
and unscrupulous Ring" But its tyranny
was 30 outrageous that last Autumn some Of the
most substantial and intelligent Democrats in
the county. whose party is largely in the ma
iortv, proposed to unite with the Republicans
in common taxpayers ticket for county Off
Gers and Assemblyman. The union was made
and fulfilled in good faith, and the Hon. Thomas
Child, a thoroughly honest man and moderate
Democrat, who Lad been a most efficient op-
ponent in the Board Of Supervisors, OF the
Ring" and all is works, was elected Assem-
bymm hy handsome minority over the
Ring" candidate, who was the regular Demo
cratic nominee. With fIr. Child, the entire
taxpayers County ticket was also elected.
ln-prited BY Unsuccessful stroke at the tyranny
Of the Ring, the same union of parties has just
elected four Of the FIVE members Of the Board
Of Supervisors-two Republicans aud two mod
crate Democrats, but all equally bent upon an
honest government OF the county. The contest
in Castleton was peculiarly interesting The
Union taxpayers nominated an anti-Ring Re
publican, and the regular Democratic Conyen-
ton a Democrat. A party of the discontented
nominated an antiRng Democrat. The elec-
ton was one Of the most exciting ever known
in tie town, and resulted in the total rout Of
the regular Democratic candidate, and the cleo
tion of the anti-Ring Republican over the anti
Ring Democrat by five majority The last
time Republican Supervisor was elected in
Castleton, the Ring smashed the ballot-box.
This time, Is the combined anti.Ring vote was
757 against $50, that little game wes not at

D7ExsCO.

Whatever may be the obScurity Of the diplo-
matte language by which the French Govern
ment endeayOrS to conceal the termination Oi
lis Mexican policy, the fact itself is hardly dis
puted any longer by any one. France has
partly yielded TO the pressure brought upon it
by the remonstrances of the Washington
Government, supported as they were by the
whole public opinion Of Europe; and it has held
out the official promise Of n withdrawal OF her
troops at an earlier period than, without
pressure from abroad she would have been
willing to announce.
Some of the Paris journals, which draw their
" inspiration" from the French Government,
seem to be intent upon denying, what every
body beside them acknowledges the defeat OF
the French diplomacy in the Mexican question.
Thus the Constitutional asserts in an article
which is supposed to have 5em-ofiiciai parent
age. that The French Government VIII never
yield to intimidation, and that the French
troops will return precisely at the time when II
can be done without eEdaugcring the inter-
ests which France went to defend IN Mexico
The Nord the Russian organ in Paris, states
that the French Government was to send q
Special Envoy to Washington, i'll order to de-
mand categoricolly whether a protracted oc'
cupation Of Mexico by the Trench troops
would be held as caSas bH. Any
irritation that articles OF this kind may
be ale to produce, will serve the purposes
of the French Government; but, according
TO present appearances, the intention OF that
Government does not extend beyond the desire
to protract the negotiations with the United
States, to find new supports for the stability oi
the rule of Maximilian after the withdrawal oi
The French troops, and, at all events, to secure
the French bordhodcrs Of the new Mexican
loan against loss.
The reinforcement of the Austrian and Bel
gian contiugents to Maximilans army Is un'
dolbtedly regarded by the French Government
as prime necessity in case Of withdrawal OF ITS
own troops. Negotiations concerning this
point have undoubtedly been going on for con-
siderable length Of time, but the report Of a
treaty between Austria and France, by which
the former power engages TO furnish to Maxi
milan one hundred thousand men, is extremely
doubtful. The Austrian Government would
seem 70 be neither politically nor financially in
aposition TO assume such responsibility.
From the seat Of war we have not had Tor
many weeks any facts tia, would indicate q
change In the position. For those who sympa'
thise with our sister Republic, and who with
Bancroft hope that the Mexican Republic must
and will rise again, nothing has Of late been
more notifying than the Bagdad affair, and
the unccasing quarrel between the Liberal
chiefs on the Rio Graude, which recently, as j.
reported, even led 70 q fight between Cortinas and
Cauales. II is 20 Generals different from those
now commanding ON the Rio Grandc that the
Rcpulnc must look for its restoration.
