The bill reported yesterday to our State Sem
ate by Mr.. Lent fixing the term OF Office OF the
Commissioners of Taxes and Assessments OF
"the City of Ncw-York," will add, we Judge,
about 100000 per annum to the burdens of our
taxpayers. The Tax Commissioners are each
20 receive higher salary than the Governor
of the State. No single department of our
City Government, unless the Tax Office be
department, has solicited or asscnted to this
increase We suppose this bill is to be put
through; but we ask every one who votes for
it to note our indignant protest, and not say
hereafter that nc 81 did MT understand it." If
this bill goes through, several others will run
behind it on the same track, and fun Million
will be added to our City TaX-bill Beware!

We do not credit the report, telcgraphcd us
from Washington, that the House viii reject
the Tariff bill as amended by the Senate. Nor
shall we easily assent to the prediction that
the bill will be sent to a Committee of Con-
ference. We hold that the wisest course that
could be pursued by the friends of Protection
would be to accept and pass the bill exactly
rs it stands, cOncurring at once i'll the Senate's
amendments and correcting in a future bill any
errors and anomalies that experience or scru-
tiny may develop. There are some things in
the bill as it stands that we would wish
changed; but, as a whole, it is an excellent
BILL and passed the Senate by larger major
ity than was ever before given for a measure
of efficient Protection. We entreat its friends
in the House to try to concur in the bill as 1t
stands before running the risks involved in
sending it to any committee whatever. We
must not subject it to the peril of a pocket
veto by delaying its passage to within ten days
of the close of the Session.

UNFULFILLED PROPHECIES.

The World mistakenly assumes that Congress
deferred the subject Of Reconstruction till after
the War was over; forgetting that compre-
hensive bill passed both Houses in 1854, but
was pocketed by President Lincoln, not as
specially Objectionable, but as premature-it
being impossible as yet to determine con-
clusively on what terms Reconstruction ought
to be effected, in view of the unforeseen chances
Of War. Messrs. Wade and Winter Davis very
pungently reviewed this pocket veto; yet We
could not help thinking that, though their state
ment was much the smarter, tho President had
the sounder position. And at all events, the
bill and the reasons adduced for not signing it
were alike notices to all concerned that the
terms of Reconstruction were yet unsettled !;
and they alike refute the COpperhead assump-
ton that the Rebel States were left to suppose
that they might il beaten in tho contest re-
sumo their position in the Union exactly as
they were before they seeded.
The World proceeds to predict that
"n tho Union IA not restored until 1t is restored by

Mr.. Oakley, in the Assembly, yesterday, urged
the passage of the resolution authorizing the
Committee on Commerce and Navigation to
examine the condition of our Ferries. There
is great need Of immediate and energetic
action on the part of the Legislature, for
the Ferry Companies positively refuse to
do anything for the safety and convenience
Of the public. The ice continues to choke the
river at certain tides and may continue
for weeks. Not one step has been taken to
guard against a renewed suspension of travel
for five days or more. On the contrary,
every day adds to the evidence of the
unftness of the ferry-boats for Winter naviga-
ton, and of the insolent indifference Of the
companies to the welfare of the public. Yester-
day one of the bridges at the Fulton-st slip, in
Brooklyn was broken, an accident which should
never occur. We believe hogs are still allowed
to run at large in the ladies' cabin Of the
DIRTY julia" on the Weehawken Ferry. At
the Wall-street Ferry, night trips have been en-
tirely suspended or resumed, if at all, without
notice TO the public. IL a corporation had been
formed expressly for the Inconvenience Of the

1t is a matter of the first importance that the
management Of our educational institutions
should be in the hands of men of respectable pO-
sition in society and unexceptionable character
How far this condition has been complied with
will be seen from tho fact that, of the present
School Commissioners and Trustees OF tins

of no fewer than seventeen are not to be found

California, while reducing her export manu-
featured 100000 pounds of her wool-crop in
1885, and means to make the amount 100000
in 1867. If the Senate Tariff bill passes, she will
probably exceed that amount. The South, in
spite of her extreme poverty, has many cotton
mills already running, and will immensely and
rapidly increase them If the Senate Tariff bill
becomes law. Yet our Grimeses and Carrot
