A Legislative Committee came down from
Albany last Winter to see how the New-York
ferries were managed. At the SAME time, the
people who daily risked their lives in crossing
the East or North Rivers were eager IN calling
for reform in the ferry system, as 1t is here con-
Quoted. The ferry companies were calmly
superior to all the clamor, and their incorpo-
rators pocketed their dividends with utter in
difference to the public outcry. They neither
provided more nor better boats they erected
not chain nor a gate to restrain the s'rug.
Cling crowds who contended like a mob OF
wrestlers at the edge of boat and bridge. The
Legislators went back, and the boats went on,
occasionally crashing together in mid stream,
or running at full speed into their docks, and
beated passenger, hurryng TO catch the de-
parting boat, being now and then drowned
because there was nothing at oil to prevent his
running directly into the water. But somebody
has been at work amid the general apathy,
and Yesterday an ordinance WIS actually intro

The Sultan made a little speech at Guild
hail. where the Lord Mayor and Corporation of
London feasted him the other day, and we are
not surprised to be told that it made sensa-
tion such as is not often aroused 10y after din
ner orations. Just think of the Grand Turk
getting up among room full OF infdels and
announcing his desire TO establish not only
among his own subjects, but between his people
and the other nations of Europe, that feeling
=" of brotherhood which is the foundation OF
"hunlan progress and the glory of our age"
When the Sultan learns to appreciate universal
brotherhood and human progress, the day of
universal political regeneration ought to be at
hand, and we might hope for his country were
MANY of his subjects half as wise as himself.
But the trouble with Turkey is not Abdul
Aziz hut the Turks.

THE GTPEETIg

III Street Commissioners can feel remOrse, we
pity Judge Whiting, when, on his daily and
thorough tour of the city, he goes up Eighth
ave-, and down Tenth and through Sixth-ave.,
and into the numerous lanes and by-ways and
cross roads which we have not space to cata-
logue. In the faithful and diligent discharge
of his duty there can be no doubt that Judge
Whiting constantly visits those numberless
streets into which the unofficial citizen declines
to penetrate, or passes through upon cOmpul-
sion only, holding his nostrls, and averting his
ewes. Even the undertaken, who is popularity
supposed to rejoice in the prospect of an epi-
demic, shudders at the probable alarming in
crease of his business. For the streets Of this
city are in y shameful condition. West Of
Sixth-ave. dirt has become chronic, and even
the churches contradict the scripture that
cleanliness is next to godliness. Judged by
that declaration, New-Yor is very wicked, for
il is certainly very dirty.
We do not see the use OF st'eet Commits
sioner who will not or cannot clean the streets.
1t is not forgotten that during the Winter,
when the snow ehoked up the streets, and the
cars were prevented from running, Judge
Writings neglect was censured by the Common
Council and the monthly appropriation for his
department was nearly withheld. AT that time
he gave tolerably good reasons Why the snow
was not removed, and the rains which soon
after washed it away helped him out OF MS
unfortunate position. But now we know ot no

The discrepancy between the statements of
Gen. Butler and Mr. Ould, respecting the ex-
change of prisoners, requires elucdation. The
controversy is hy no means settled. and it is
too important to be left unsoved There can
be little difficulty in getting at the truth II
committee Of Congress set resolutely to work.
Mr.. Ould says he made an offer to release
1900 Federal prisoners Internationally. Cen
Butler says he received no such offer. To
whom was it made, and why was 1t not ac-
ceptedi These are questions TO which the
country demands an answer.

The Virginia Republican State Convention at
Richmond yesterday was very largely at
tended, so largely that an adjournment from the
hall of meeting to the Captol-square was
agreed upon. At that place, an attempt was
made to array the delegates upon the Conserva-
tive side, but the majority rallied around Hunni-
cutt and the Radicals At the meeting OF this
body, the officers of the April Convention were
appointed to oficiate in this one, and the Con-
vention adjourned until this morning. Mr.
Rotts has drawn up platform which4wi be

and restoration to civil and political rights OF

that negotiations would insure harmonious ac-

The investigation of tile Almshouse at Pat
erson, New-Jersey, has shown that system
of slow murder was established by its Superin-
tendent. The cruelties inflicted upon the
women and children, the sick and crippled, and
insane, would not be credited upon rumor, but
are too clearly proven. Yet these atrocities
were practiced for months without the knowl-
edge of the public, and appear to have been
revealed by accident The management OF this
institution is sufficient reason for an examina-
tion of all others, and the Governor might
properly appoint Commission TO inquire into
the treatment of our own paupers and luna
tics. We have no reason for believing that
such horrible tyranny as that of the Superin-
tendent at Paterson would be discovered, bat
1t is almost certain that many reforms are
needed

every ferry company to erect gates which shall
effectually prevent the passage Of any person
to or from the boats except when the latter are
securely fastened to tho bridge. 1t would be
almost too much TO expect this ordinance to
pass, or to expect its thorough enforcement if
it were passed; but it would be worth some
thing to know that formal complaint could
not be as cavalierly ignored by the corpora

Secret tribunals are always looked upon with
suspicion. Their power may be feared, but
the secresy with which their transactions are
surrounded prevents that respect for their de-
cisions which is felt for those made after pub
lie trial in open court. The Metropolitan Rev
enue Board has thus far sat with closed doors
which appears to us great mistake. The
public will feel better satisfied with its inves-
tigations into alleged frauds if it opens its
doors and lets its work be known.

LADIES COLUMN.

THE EVENING BEFORE WEDDING;
'--"Ill tell you" continued her aunt
to Louisia, = two things which, have
fully proved. The first will go far
toward preventing the possibility OF
any discords after marriage; the sec
ond is the best and surest preserva7
tive of feminine character. -
Z . Tell me, said Louisa anxiously.
The first is this: Demand ofyour
bridegroom as soon as the marriage
ceremony is over, a solemn vow, and
promise yourself, never, even in jest,
to dispute or express any disagree
ment. / tell you never for what
begins in mere bantering will lead to
serious earnest Avoid expressing
any irritation at one another's words.
Mutual forbearance is the one great
secret of domestic happiness. If you
have erred confess it freely, even if
confession costs you some tears.
Further, promise faithfully and sol
EMMY, never, upon any pretext or
excuse, to have any secrets or conceal
ments from each other, but to keep
your private affairs from father,
mother, brother, sister, and the world.
Let them be known only to each 9TH
er and your God. Remember that
any third person admitted into your
confidence becomes party to stand
between you, and will naturally side
with one or the other Promise to
avoid this, and renew the VOW upon
every temptation. 1t will preserve
that perfect confidence, that union,
which will indeed make you as one.
| o, if the newly married would but
practice this spring of connubial
peace, how many unions would be
happy which are now miserable. -

When Madame de Stael asked Bo-

in France?" she imagined he would
reply that ii was herself; but the first
Consul could not forbear venting his
spleen at her, his wit and truth in
this short sentence: Madame, it is
the woman who has borne the most
brbies," and this brings me to the
greatest evil to France; in the last
twenty years her population has not
Increased, although she sends away
almost nothing by emigration

Good Advice.

Girls, let us tell you a stubborn
truth No young woman ever looks so
we'll to sensible young man as when
dressed in plain, neat, modest attire,l
without a single ornament about her
person. She looks then as though
she possessed worth in herself, and
needed no artificial rigging to enhance
her value. IF a young woman would
spend as much time in improving her
mind, training her temper, and cherish
ing Kindness, mercy, and other good
qualities, as most Of them do in extra
