The favorable Judgment passed upon Madame
Parepa's recent debut in opera is confirmed by the
success of her Norma last evening. at the Academy

Messrs. Theirs and Jules Favre are among
the most brilliant orators of European parlia-
ments and generally in their attacks upon the
policy of the Government have the sympathy
of public opinion throughout the world. But
if they Object-as a Cable dispatch reports
them to have done in the Legislative body
to the unity of Italy and of Germany, on the
ground that it is in the interest of France to
see both countries as weak as possible, they
profess a doctrine which is offensive to all
true Liberals, and much more illiberal than
any principle of foreign policy the French Gov
eminent has ever prOfessed.

GENERAL BANKS as M.ECEN4S.

We observe that Il bill introduced by Gen.
Banks passed the House of Representatives in
the last Congress, instructng the Library Com
mittce to make a contract with Mr. Albert Bier
stadt for two pictures to decorate the walls of
the National Capitol. 1t is evident therefore,
that these pictures are intended 10 be land
scapcs, and as American painters mostly excel
i'll landscape painting, 1t is matter for con-
graduation that proposition to recognize its
importance i'll IN adequate public way has not
only been brought forward, but meets with
favor. Up to this time it has been customary
to assume without question that historical pie
lures alone could give interest and dignity to
the walls of public buildings but this day is
now passing away, and there will soon, perhaps,
be no more distinction made between landscape
and what is generally known as Historical"
art in choosing paintings for public than there
is for private buildings.
While, however, we approve the general
intention of the bill introduced by Mr.
Banks, and think it would be
good thing to have two grand land
scapes painted for the Government, we are at a
loss to understand why one artist should be
selected to paint both OF these costly pictures,
to the Committee as to what artist they should
employ. As the proposition stands, it certainly
looks like a gross piece of fav0ritsmI land if
anything in the ways of Congress with regard
to the Fine Arts could astOnish MS we should
be astonished on this occasion. We have seen
q ludicrously bad artist allowed, year after
year, to have his studio IN the very Capitol it
self; we have seen young girl without capac-
ity as without experience, selected above all
others to make the one statue of Mr.. Lincoln
which the National Government is to possess;
We have seen another artist as to whose want
of ability all educated people, artists as well
as laymen, are agreed, and who has already had
far more than any one mans share OF Govern
ment employment, commissioned to execute
for large sum of money picture

We were recently informed that third
Barnum-a cousin Of L. r. Banum--had en-
tered the Connecticut canvass as an Independ
ent Republican candidate for Congress in the
WITH District. This information we declined to
publish, knowing very well that any Independ-
ent Republican candidate in Connecticut could
DO nothing more than an unmitigated Copper
head. Independent Republicans do not try to
ruin their party, and this new Barnum is Well
aware that every vote cast for him would be a
vote for the other and Democratic Barnum.

The case of Fernando Wood VS.. The Con.
troller of the Finances of our City comes up
in a new phase to-day before Judge IngTaham,
whose action thereon is awaited with lively
interest.
1t is known that our City is now constructing
a new City Hall, which is designed to furnish
offices for her various functionares for whom
she now hires apartments in sundry private edi-
fees. The new City Hall or Court House
ought to have been finished long since, and
must be ready for occupation soon.
In full view of these facts, the Common
Council, over year ago, directed the Con
troller to execute leases for certain premises OF
Fernando Wood, to be used as offices by the
Corporation Counsel and his subordinates--
said leases to be for ten gears. at yearly rent
nj of Eiqhteen thousand Dollars.
The fair annual value of those premises is
estimated by capable disinterested persons a.
certainly not above $1,000.
But suppose it were $4,000, the City has M
need of them q day longer than till the new
Court-H House is ready for occupancy, and tho
renting of outside premises for any term ex-
tending beyond that period would Sill Dc a
shameful wrong and robbery. Hence, ChiiSto-
pher Pullman, late Councilman, commenced an
action, and obtained an injunction to prevent
the execution of the lease.
Mr. Pullman is now out OF office; 40 1t u
contended, on the part Of the lessor that hi'
action has abated, and that the injunction
must be dissolved.
If Judge Ingraham Sustains this view, the
City Treasury lies open 10 whosoeyer shall
soa f;t to hncl, mn his carr and fill II. For,
when one of our Aldermen or Comchnen
proves honest, and undertakes to prevent Mu-
nicipal robbery, he must proceed by injunc-
tion !: and. if the action abatos whenever he WHO
brings it retires from office, a little delay Is
NIL that an Injunction can affect the respond
emit has only TO stave Oft action for a few
months, and all is at his mercy. The lnJunc-
ton might as well have never been sued Tor or
never granted.
Let us watch for and note what Judge iu-
graham does with this case.

STAND IND DELIVER!

The Supervisors of this County are to be
admired for their audacity and unblushina
effrontery, if not for their honesty and econ
omy. In the year 1853, new County Court
House was authorized TO be built, at an ex-
pense Of S2J0,OOO. Eight years have slipped
away since then; yet the new Court House it
far from being completed The org-
nal plan was varied scheme after
scheme tried to fritter away the resources OF
our people, and the money of our Taxpayers
made to flow like water The cry of the Su.
pervisors has been for "More More~ and thi.
cry will go on increasing in intensity until the
last penny has been wrung from our suffering
people, Up to the beginning of 1866 some
S2,5OOOOO had been drawn from the public
purse for the Ostensible purpose of completing
this Court House. As each successive demand
was made for "mOre,' solemn pledges
were given that it would be all
that would be required for the completion OF
the building. Last Winter against solemn
protestations, the Supervisors were authorized
to spend 100000 more but it was upon tho
understanding that this sum must complete the
building. Well year has rolled around the
100000 have been spent and now the Super
visors have asked the Legislature for One MI
lion more! This is wholesale robbery. And yet,
in the face of these extOrtiOnate demauds-in
the face of this reckless extrayagance-the
Senate of the State of NewYOrk refused to
transfer the duties of the Board of Super
visOrs to Board of Public Works One
Million more to be frittered away-0ne Million
of hard earned money to be wrung from the
taxpayers and thrown to feed the ravenous
wolves who fatten upon the City Treasury.
We appeal to the Legislature to stop this
wholesale corruption, and to refuse to give
one cent more to be spent on the Court House
by the Board of Supervisors. Ii necessary, let
the completion of this building be cOnfided 10
the hands of three respectable and responsible
citizens

The State Senate yesterday passed, by a
vote of 20 to II, the bill for an Underground
Railroad. 1t authorizes the Company to tunnel
a road from Bowling Green to the City Hall,
and thence under the Bowery and Third o.
FOuTth-aves. to the Harlem River, with per-
mission to construct surface railway above
Eightieth-st. if necessary. The Hudson and
East Rivers are to be tunneled, and two tunnels
across the city are authorized. A branch road
from the City Hall Park is to be made under
Hudson st. and Eighth-aye.

The large popular meeting which took place
at Selma, Alabama, on the 18th, is another I'M
pOrtant sign of the Southern tendency toward
reconstruction. The resolutions passed were
outright and thorough They recognize the
right of Congress to define the terms Of recon
struction and urge the people of Alabama to
accept them at once. These terms Alabama
can in no way escape, and she can make the
loftiest virtue of her necessity by uniting
heartily with the loyal South in the effort to
return to the Union
