The Railway Track Sailing Nuisance.

The Common Council has authorized the
city railway companies to use salt In clearing
their tracks at each switch and turnout" and
the we'll known unselfsh character of these
corporations creates no apprehension that this
privilege will be abused. The practice OF
sailing the tracks was forbidden by special
ordinance some ten years ago, owing to the
dcleterious effects 1t produced upon the public
health. The mixture of salt and snow coming
in contact with the feet is productive Of most
malignant forms Of diphtheria--a fact well
known professionally and by experience.
During the winters when the practice was not
forbidden diphtheria prevailed almost as an
epidemic. The revival Of the sailing nuisance
may now be looked for with each fall of snow.
The limitations prescribed by the present ordi-
nance will not conserve the public comfort
for ID Is nj such switches and turnouts that the
greater number Of passengers enter or alight
from the cars, who will take with them int
the vehicles The dangerous compound, there to
mngle with the already filthy straw and spread
sickness throughout the entire travelling COM
munity. The area at each switch aud turnout is
80 insignificant that the companies could easily
remove the superintendent snow with shovels
and carts. The Common Council in granting
the privilege Of using salt instead has permit.
ted the companies very little cheaper and q
highly dangerous expedient

LovE's LABOR Losr-In the petition pro-
sented in Congress on Saturday last by Mr..
Raymond, from John 7. Hoffman, Samuel G.
Courtney and others, demonstrating against the
impeachment Of President Johnson aud pray
ing the adoption Of measures to- promote tho
peace and prosperity Of the country. This petit
ton was referred to the Judiciary Committee,
charged with the impeachment investigation;
and what effect will the name Of Mr.. Hoffman
have with that committee? AZ an active oppo-
nsnt of the pending constitutional amendment,
as q supporter Of Mr.. Johnson's policy and
assumptions OF legislative powers, Mr.. HoE-
mans remonstrance will only serve 70
strengthen the impeachment movement Tho
measures which he thinks necessary TO- pro-
mote the peace and prosperity Of the country
are the very measures upon which Mr.. Hoffman
was defeated last November, and upon which
the impeachment is demanded and will be
carried through.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1867-02-04

never can be for The interests Of the nation,
that it should be exercised in open defiance of
the expressed will Of the people. Such, how
ever, is the position in which Mr.. johnson has
placed himself and from which 1t has now be-
come necessity to expel him.
We are willing to be generous in our
Interpretation of the Presidents motives
We can understand how he may be en-
couraged to persevere in his obstructive
policy by conscientious scruples. But SO
it was with Charles the First, Louis the
Sixteenth, James the Second and the
Others. They were all men Of certain or un-
certain conscientious scruples. But their scru-
pies and excuses, good or bad, neither justified
their policy nor averted their fate. What,
then, should chief magistrate like President
Johnson do, when scruples and excuses incline
him in one direction and the popular will de-
mands that he move in anothers Has he no
choice but to resist the popular will or violate
the teachings Of conscience He has choice.
He can resign. In not adopting this course
the President, we think, has made grand mis-
take. Hewould have shown himself greater
philosopher If, instead of undertaking that
now celebrated stumping tour to Chicago, he
had remained at the White House, bordering
the lessons of the past ; and the world would
have considered him greater statesman, and
posterity would have accorded him a nobIer
name, if, when the fall elections were ended
and the will Of the people had been so unmis-
takably expressed, finding bis conscience still
unbending, no had voluntarily resigned posi-
ton which experience taught him he could gil
neither with comfort to himself nor with salts
faction TO the country. But no has not yet lost
his opportunity. Resignation even now on his
part would cover multitude of sins, while his
Impeachment and removal, which are certain,
as matters now stand, will be inseparable from
unqualified disgrace. Prerogative, whether
royal or presidential, must yield to popular
right and the sovereign powers OF the National
Legislature.

Garibaldi writes . Characteristic letter ffon
caprera on the Eastern question. He speaks
very tenderly Of Greek Christians, weeps over
them because they are Christians, and says ha
believes in God but he u death on priests.
He takes flying shot, Is usual, at the Emperor
of Austria, who deserves, he thinks, to be sent
to Mexico-severe punishment enough. But
we thought he had done with Austria and
everything Tedeschan. He ought to drop that
business; for he once hurt himself severely in
trying to make German sausages. When he
was on Staten Island he bought meat chop
per and went to work, until in an unguarded
moment he nearly chopped one Of his 6ngers
of. He Immediately dropped the sausage
business, finding the work too sharp for him,
and went into the successful manufacture q
candles. Greece Is evidently his element.
Let him 60 there and mould things to their
destiny. Having now nothing to do, he might
employ himself usefully in those isles Of
Greece "where burning Sappho," &c, and
where the population threatens to melt away
altogether.

MEETING OF ARMY OFFICERS AT WAsHISGToN.-
General Grant has called q meeting Of major
generals and brigadier generals Of the army at
Washington, to confer upon army matters gen.
orally, and especially to consult upon the
necessity Of maintaining garrisons in the ex-
rebel States. II is very we'll known that Gen.
eral Grant desires the removal Of oil the
United States troops from the South al the
earliest moment possible and it is probable
that, in contemplation Of such a movement, he
desires first to learn the opinions of those
officers who have been in command Of the
departments, as well as Of others, as to its
wisdom aud expediercy. The meeting Of the
generals of the army at this time is opportune.
1t will enable those members of Congress who
desire speedy reconstruction to ascertain the
opinions Of practical men Of unquestioned
loyalty upon the subject The lighting men Of
the army, who thoroughly understand the feel
ings, disposition, condition and interests of the
ex-rebels, will be able to give Congress infor-
nation that will, no doubt, enlighten them on
many Of the important questions now under
their consideration.

South Carolina and Massachusetts ON the
Amendment.

South Carolina and Massachusetts the
Amendment.
The Cavaliers OF South Carolina and tho
Puritans of New England, who united in de-
nunciation Of the Union and the constitution
before the war, and who together maintain the
doctrine of the sacred right of secession. are
still in accord on the subject Of reconstruction.
South Carolina has already rejected the consti-
tutional amendment, and Massachusetts,, under
the lead Of Wendell Phillips, is preparing to
follow suit The common object Of the two ex-
tremes-the Northern and Southern radicals
is to keep the country in its present disorgan-
lied condition. Ss
The loyal people have decided. with una
nimity unprecedented on amy former political
issue, in favor Of the settlement proposed by
Congress, and Cavaliers and Puritans viii be
forced 10 give way before the popular viii.

England have together controlled the federal
government; but they can do so no longeR

Tho Tenure Of Omce Bni-smail Pstass Pro.


CG0OIuBos
II appears from the proceedings In Congress-
ON Saturday that the House in Its action upon
the Tenure Of Office bill reconsidered it's
vote of the day before excepting Cabinet
officers from the operation Of the bill, and
passed (by a vote of "A yeas to IS nsys the
amendment making the removal Of Cabinet
officers subject to the advice and approval Of
the Senate. It is understood that this change
Of action on the part Of the House was for the
purpose Of shielding the Secretary Of War. 1t
was supposed that the President intended to
remove Mr.. Stanton in consequence Of this
Cabinet officer having differed with him upon
tho veto of the District Of Columbia Suffrage
bill and upon other matters Of administration
policy, and the House appears determined TO
prevent his removal without the consent Of the
Senate. Now, without entering into the merits
Of the position either of the President or the
Secretary on the questions about which they
differ, we think the motive which led the
House to take the action referred to is very
small and unworthy legislative body Of this
great country. II is, in fact, legislating from
petty and narrow-minded motives, and for the
day, upon small objects, instead Of doing SO
upon great and general principles. Such con-
duct on the part of the small potato politicians
in Congress cannot fail to bring that body into
contempt.

The New Came Of kino, or Keno.
The police made a descent on an establish
ment on Broadway on Saturday evening, syheFc
a game recently introduced into this city
and known by the name Of kino, or keno, was
in full blast, and captured number OF adven-
turers who were engaged in trying their luck
at Dame Fortunes wheel. The doors Of tho
room were suddenly locked by the watchfhl
guardians of the city's morals, and the whole
company was cleveriy bagged and carried of
to pass the remainder Of the night in the cells
of the station house.
This is all very well 80 far as it goes. The
new game rs represented % species Of gam
bling, and thus, being illegal, subjects all who
publicly engage in 1t 70 arrest and punishment
As described by the initiated, it is played by
drawing or dropping numbers ont Of wheel
until one or another of those who take chances
is fortunate enough to get the lucky numbers.
when he shouts out "Keno' and wins the pool
But a game very similar indeed to this came OF
few nights since at the Cooper Institute, in
which the stakes were much higher, and in that
case we believe the gambling wheel was car
ried in by two stout policemen, who superin-
tended the play. II is very currently reported,
too, that at an establishment higher up town
thousands of dollars are nightly won and lost
at faro, and that not less than one hundred and
forty thousand dollars passed from the pockets
of the honorable proprietor into those of
notorious politician at one sitting few weeks
since. The police have not yet discovered the
whereabouts of this latter fashionable estab-
lishment, although almost every person else in
the city knows just where it is located. Our
fishermen in the construction Of their nets take
care that the meshes are Of such size as to
catch the big fish and let the small fry 60. Our
metropolitan police nets are of different fash
ion-they are SO contrived as to secure big
haul of minnows and suffer the big fish to
escape.
