OUR CROWDED SrRRErs.--Many projects have
been suggested for the relief Of oar crowded
streets. Some advocate q subterranean rail-
road under Broadway, after fhe fashion OF the
underground railway Of London; others pro-
pose an aerial line, ~ impracsicable ~ any
thing that has ever been attempted since the
days Of lcarus; sthers again would ds6gure our
city, as many European cities are dis6gured, By
metropolitan nilroad bait upon arches and
running over the houses. Something must b
done-that is very certsa; but before We re-
sort TO any Of nese extreme measures We
ought 10 make the best use Of the means We
have on hand. In al the discussions about
relieving the street trafRc cur splendid water
communication 10 left out Of sight In Lon
don the Thames bears Is many passengers ~
Fleet street or the Strand. Small steamers
ply between MI parts Of the city and con-
vey passengers at fares varying from two To
six cents. For the latter sum any one may
travel a distance greater than from the City
Hall Ia Harlem In little more than one-hsf
the time occupied by our street cars. There is
mo reason why some similar system Of river
traffic should not be introduced here. The
rropossd widening Of Harlem river will rem

the establishment Of cheap conveyances on

Our CdAsT DEFENCEs-THE DISTRACTIONS AT
HE'LL GArs-we have already had demonssra-
tive evidence that the coast defences OF our
harbor are insufficient 10 resist the newly in
vented machinery Of war. None Of the forts.
either on the principal approscb by way Of
the Narrows OF by the Sound. are adequate
to the purpose fer which they are intended.
We look. therefore, to the general govern
ment for some improvement in their con-
str1iction. There are many other improve
ments in and about the navigablc waters OF
the harbor which claim the attention OF the
State authorities. For instance, The passage
through He'll Gate which connects the city
with the waters of the Sound Is a perpetual
danger TO navigators. il can only be passed
by vessels Of light dranght, and then vt GER
tain stages Of water. We repeatedly hear Of
vessels going ashore Oh the rocks there and
not unfrequently OF loss Of life. Aud yet this
is the only means Of connection with the en-
trance TO the city by way OF Ie"s Island
Sound. through which are csreat Eastern was
.,,.apcllcd TO come. owing to the bar on Sandy
Hook
Taking into consideration the inadequacy OF
the land Notifications on the Sound, the upper
portions OF the Island, In case of war, would
be entirely dcfenceless. inasmuch as we can
not send gunboa,s through He'll Gate in its
present condition, while al the same time the
entrance to The Sound from the sea is open to
the war vessels OF sn enemy. Thus there is
literally no substantial protection for. New

We trust that the Legislature, which is usually

John Quincy Adams the entire expenditure for
the republic was only thirteen millions-seyen
millions less than that Of the city of New York
at present Ought not this to open the eyes OF
our citizens to the enormous evils that have
grown upon uss Is 1t not time that a change
should be made!
Taking 1t for granted that convention will
be called by the vote of the people in Novem-
Der to remedy the evils Of our present system,
we call for q thorough reform. Instead of an
elective judiciary, which is too apt to be made
up Of politicians, whose decisions are rendered
more with view to reelection than to law,
justice or equity. the judges ought to be ap-
pointed, as in the case of the Supreme Court
of the United States, by the executive autho-
rity. They would then be Independent OF
popular influences, and the Governor would
be held responsible. 1t should be the same
with regard to the magistrates and all other
officials administering the law. Instead of the
numerous boards of commissioners for the
various departments, without unity of action
or central head, there should be = grada-
ton of fixed responsibility from the Governor
down through every branch of government, so
that the public may know who to blame when
anything goes wrong and the Executive may
know where to apply the remedy promptly. The
city council may be elected as at present, be-
cause it is acquainted with the local wants
of the people and because it forms the basis of
representative government; but the mayors,
having executive functions only, should be
appointed by the Governor with the advice
and consent of the Senate. These are the re-
forms we call upon the people to demand.
With them we shall return to the simple and
cheap government of the earlier and purer
days of the republic. We shall be able to
check the monstrous corruptions of the politi-
clans and know upon whom to fix the respon-
sibiliy in the administration of our local affairs.

This new candidate for public favor
comes out, unheralded by announcement
and trusting to no prestige of authors mans
or fame. 1t is a simple story of New Eng
land life in its highest and purest type.
The hero is a poet and Eniunia is a char
acterOf rare grace and beauty. Amy, a del
icate girl, grows from cOmliness and free
maidenhood to a noble, true-hearted wo-
manliness. The beautiful domestic life of
Herbert and Alice is drawn by q few touches
which reveal the hand of the true artist.
The story has much Of culture and classic
grace. There is a rare appreciation Of the
loveliness of American scenery and some Of
the descriptions are worthy of a poets pen.
There many faults in the book. The char
acters are not always well sustained and
some pages disappoint US sadly, but the book
will be read by many and the author will
write again.

Railway Matters.

H SUEz ROUTE TO ISDIA.-It is reported
in Paris that's company is about to be form
ed for establishing a direct line of COM
munication between India and France and
England, by way of the Isthmus of S2ez
and Marseilles. A new railway is to be
constructed for this purpose in a direct line
from Marseilles to Calais, by which nearly
two hundred miles will be saved.
FEoN LAWRENCE TO PLEASANT HIL-The
citizens of Lawrence, Kansas, voted unani-
mously, last week, to appropriate 100000
in bonds to build the Railroad from Law
renee to Pleasant Hill, Missouri. Five
hundred and ffty-three votes were cast in
favor of the proposition, and none against it.
PACIFIC RAILRoAD.-The last rail between
Kansas City, Mo, and Wyandotte City,
Kansas-the connecting link joining the
Missouri Paci6e and the Union Pacific (E.
D. Railroads,-was laid down on Monday,
April 2, by the principal officers of the two
roads. On Tuesday the new Board of Di-
rectors of the Union Pacific, and a number
of friends Of the enterprise, made a journey
