New MEASURES FOR THE Coon or THE CnY.-
A bill has been introduced into the Legislature
to establish . Board Of Public Works Tor
this city. Il proposes TO abolish the Croton
Aqueduct Board, take from the Police Com
missioners, Board Ct Education, Street Commits
sioners and other municipal officers Of kindred
character the powers now entrusted to them,
and assign all their duties to board APP
pointed especially for the purpose. This is =
wise and . very proper measure. 1t will act
in concert with the new Board Of Control. and
assist that board in restoring order, fidelity
and good management to ON. city concerns. II
il complained that our present city govern
ment will become q nonentity IL all the mca-
sures having reference TO municipal reform
pass at Albany. So much the better. Our
present Mayor is . trustworthy and efficient
Officer. 1t is true he has nothing particular to
do at present, unless Il be to put . veto
upon some of the doings Of the Common
Council and TO sign few papers daily. But
the case will stand different when the Board Of
Control comes into operation. He will be the
chief Officer Of that board, and in his double
capacity OF Chairman Of the Board Of Control
and Mayor Of the city he will have ample OPP
portunities for displaying his peculiarly strik-
ing abilities a. an executive officer. He knows
all the crooks and kinks, ins and outs Of the
big and little villains, the contract jobbers and
other Corporation cormorants, and will act as
the Fouchc, the grand detective Of all corrupt
practices that may be employed to dcplete the
city treasury. Let MS have, then, good Board
of Control, good Board Of Public Works, and
then we are sure to have n good city govern
ment, conducted by good men. -

DECLINE OF THE GosPBI. IN New ENGLAND
The Independent speaks Of the decline Of
the gospel, or rather Of IN interest in the
same, in the State Of Connecticut. II seems
that large number of churches are with
ont congregations, and. tnt the pay OF the
clergymen is so paltry as to be little above a
starvation scale. That an interest in religion
in all the New England States should become
slack is not at all surprising when we consider
the lengths to which the pulpis there have
been prostituted to base and miserable parti-
san service. II il not from the lack Of sim
cere religious sentiment that these churches
have been deserted. It ID because the congre-
cations have become Disguised with politi-
cal parsons and with their radical harangues,
and unless the evil be reformed altogether we
fear the spread Of religious feeling in New
England will be very much restricted. Now
that the rebellion is over and the country
saved, it is to be hoped our country parsons
will turn their attention 10 saving the souls Of
sinners, and leave the mirc Of politics to be
dabbled in by those whose sfinities incline
them that way.

by a wholesome stomachic during these oppressive
months il is likely to be severely debilitated as

The Topics.

The great matters Of discussion at pre-
sent amongst those who possess franchises
and civil rights-that is to say, the people
of the North-are the admission or nom
admission of Colorado as a State OF the
Union-the grand Question of how to get
rid of the Supreme Court, in order that
those who have the power should break
the law at their ease. Aud, connected
with this last, the question, What is to be
done by the dominant faction in order TO
insure to these southern countries ga re-
publican form of government" that is, a
government owned and worked by "Re-
ppblicans"l
The admission of Nebraska and Colo
RADIO, though looked TO by the Radical
party as one Of the means Of providing a
sutticiency Of northern States TO pass con-
stitutional amendments over our heads, is
yet opposed by SUMNER and others Of the
most violent politicians because, in framing
their State constitutions, the people OF
those Territories used the word "white."
Colorado has but very small population,
as Mr.. CUHaIHGs, its Governor, attirms in
bis message--only 27,9Oo; somewhat more
than half of the population of this city Z:
vet there is no doubt ii they consent to
expunge the odious word totite out OF their
vocabulary, that handful Of squatters will
become State, and will help to make
laws and constitutions for Virginia.
The Supreme Court is dreadfully in the
way the very name of it is fast becoming
as hateful to philanthropists as the
word ,ohite itself. People are seriously
debating now whether Congress cannot re-
construct it out Of existence, or II that
may not be, then leap over 1t, or turn or
flank IL. The New York World thinks
those debates sufficiently menacing to re-
ouire that journal to make an elaborate
REPUTATION of them, and learned apology
for the threatened tribunal. Thereupon
correspondent takes the Word to task
roundly, saying: "The supreme decisions
!. Of he spar absolutely require that the
!. States of the South be reconstructed &C.

!" number OF Judges Of the Supreme Court
"may be essential to prevent the obstruc.
"tion ofthe measures of Congress. Achange
ain the mode Of appointing the judges may
"become equally necessary to the same
"great end and you might as we'll argue
"that Congress had no power to resort to
"any of the cxtra-constitutional powers
(which 1t has exercised, as argue against
"this."
The nan who writes the above is evil
IDENTIFY in good faith: he does truly cx-
press the thought that is in him and his
thought is, that Congress ought to be at
full liberty to violate all the laws, and that
one might as well argue against its right to
break the laws it has broken as those it is
going to break.
What TO do with the southern States !?
This is the real question which swallows
mp all the others. The passivencss Of the
South in all this matter of reconstruction
bcwildcrs and enrages the Radicals ex-
tremcly. There is here 50 evident an in
teniion of leaving the whole responsibility
Of the work to our northern brethren, and
merely to stand by with our arms folded
while they threaten, and scold, and coax,
that they begin not TO know very well what
is to be the next step. OF course the press,
in this interval of legislative labors, is ex-
ercising itself diligently over the grand
business of the session. The New York
Herald recommends simply that the south
ern States be "let alone" that they get as
much time for reflection as they require /;
that perhaps after ten or twenty years
exclusion, they may at last come to their
knees and accept the precious amendment;
but, continues the writer, <" If there is no
hope in the present southern generation,
ave can wait for the next.

WE have received a copy of letter adj
dressed to FRANK Nat. WATKINS, Esq, OF
Prince Edward county, giving the views OF
the faculty OF the University Of Virginia
as to the best disposition to be made of the
lands which when the letter was written il
was hoped this State would receive from
the General Government under the act o!
July, 1862. As it is not probable that the
State will receive these lands for many
years, we think it hardly necessary to pub
fish this letter just now. "First catch your
hare" says Mrs. Glass.
