RrroRM IN New York CnY.--A few days ago
Governor Fenton sent TO the Legislature mes
sage recommending that two special commits
sioners be appointed 10 examine into the
charges made against certain officials in
this city, and report thereon. In this sugges-
ton the Governor takes one step In the right
direction, and that Is embraced in PROPOSE
.tion which we have repeatedly urged upon the
Legislature. The Governor, instead Of confn-
ing bis recommendation to the appointment Of
a commission for special purpose, should
have made the commission little larger, and
proposed that their powers should embrace g
thorough supervision over every department
In the city government In order to reach
reform In this respect II is by no means neces-
sary to remove heads Of departments who are
faithful In the discharge Of their duties. II IL

fidelity, competent and reliable, let him remain

TIE SUPPORTERS or The PREsrDsST.-It IL @
curious fact that the greatest hostility against the
reconstruction policy Of the President comes
from extreme sections Of the country, or from
persons and presses representing extreme
Views. The republican presses Of New England
are mostly Of this type; but they are moderate
in the expression Of their views when compared
with the radical presses in the Northwest
Chicago, for example. The newspaper presses
In Richmond, Virginia, have returned to that
spiteful, ill-nstured and ill-msnnered method
Of discussing public questions which prevailed
before the war. Although they do not directly
oppose the President, the character Of their
support is but little better than open hostility.
II 10 q pleasure TO know, in the meantime, that

CoTToN STEALING. The cotton
pilfsring which for months past has
bafled the energies of the police, has
now so extended its proportions that
fears are entertained that the Cres-
cent City has become a vast pickery,
where lots of the aeecy staple, vary
ing from half pound to half q dozen
bales, are daily carried off without
the slightest fear on the part OF the
offending parties. 8
A steamboat captain, who arrived
few nights ago, reported nine bales
missing before his cargo was dis
charged. Another states that
night or two since a large boat, fully
Equipped for the trade, ran along side
with the deliberate purpose of carry
ing of o boat load. The captain of
the rakish- looking craft offered the
watchman 800 for the privilege Of
helping himself to the spare cotton In
the hold. @nH af'n"
A week or two ago another boat
came under the bows of the ship
Marion, and offered so cents q sack
tor all loose cotton they would be al
lowed to steal. Three bales were
hoisted out of the hold Of the ship
and carried away that night. While
passing along the levee yesterday,
we overheard an urchin disclose to
playfellow the interesting fact that
his mother had given up her occupa-
ton as washerwoman, and was now
stealing cotton for a living. lE
This is certainly carrying the joke
a little too far, and should at once be
taken to prevent the ruinous losses
