win MIR. Van CIeve Resign9

WE see that Common Council yesterday
adopted resolution directing the committee
on Law to inquire into the legality of the cleo
tion of Frederick A. Van Cleve as Assistant
City Solicitor. We hope that careful and
impartial Investigation of the election will be
made, and the decision reached be speedily
made public. Whatever may be the settle
ment of the legal point at issue, the opinion
held by the community will not be altered.
The adoption of the resolution by Common
council is an official rebuke to the election of
Mr. Van Cleve. 1t is a public express
sion OF the doubt which has been in all
MINDS Under such circumstances, the
question arises, will not Mr.. Van Cleve

opposed to his holding the position, gracefully

be his proper course of action. BY il he would
redeem himself from most of the odium which
his avaricious desire for place has caused to h.,
heaped upon him; and although he can never rid
himself of his record, nor avoid condemnation
for seeking to evade the law, yet he will thus
eVince desire to do all he can and regain
thereby the respect of many Of those whose

The Action OF THE NEW YORK UNION LEAGUE
CLUB ON HORACE GREELEY.-The action last
night of the Union League Club of New York,
on the question of ejecting Horace Greeley,
was just what was expected from any sensible
body of men. After due deliberation on the
question of the right or wrong of Mr. Greeley
in bailing Jefferson Davis, they came to the
wise conclusion that the Club could take no
steps in the matter, because of the want of
jurisdiction. The resolution adopted had two
clauses, the first of which expressed the disap-
proval of the Club of the release of Davis on
bail, and the second declared that 'sthere is
nothing in the action of Horace Greeley rela-
tive to the bailing of Jefferson Davis calling
for proceedings in this Club"
We need say but a few words on the decision
arrived at. or the merits of the release of
Davis we do not at present intend to speak.
1t is a matter utterly distinct from the ques-
ton at issue. Mr.. Greeley may have been
right or he may have been wrong in his con-
duct; but he most assuredly had the liberty
of choosing his own course. The Club had
nothing whatever to do with his decision.
The attempt of some of its members to
interfere, and to call him to account, was
impertinent, and Mr. Greeley in treating it with
contempt and defiance administered deserved
though stinging rebuke. Political and social
clubs cannot be too often reminded that any
attempt on their part to go outside of their
legitimate sphere, and to sit in inquest upon
their members in regard to acts clearly beyond
the proper purview of such organization, is a
species of tyranny which will not be tolerated.
IT is QUITE TINE that the proper authorities
were at work preparing our city for the pos
sible invasion of the cholera. casual inspec-
ton of the condition of the roads on the out
skirts of the city will show that there are a
large number of stagnant pools of water, piles
of refuse matter, and all the other causes
which breed pestilence. The state of the
suburbs is anything but what it should be-
and it is imperatively the duty of the officials
to give the matter immediate attention. When
the summer is so near that dogs are taken up
in the streets because they have no muzzles,
it is certainly time that the disease breeding
filth in the neighborhood should also be
removed.

BREEcH- LOADING GUNs.-The number of ex-
perimental breech. leaders before the commit
tee at Woolwich, England, has now reached
over ninety. Many of these are inventors
toys, and some of them will not even bear sub
mitting to the first simple test of firing
twenty rounds at the five hundred yards
range. 1t is even reported that one inventor
fatty declined the risk of firing from the
weapon which he rendered for adoption, fear
ing, no doubt, that its destructive power
might be demonstrated more unpleasantly
to those using it than to those against whom
it was directed.

INDUSTRIAL PARTNERSHIPS IN EYoJAND.-
There are now in England between two thou
sand and three thousand shareholders in COM
panies founded upon the principle of uniting
the interests of the capitalists with the inte-
rests of the workers, and at least eight thou
sand to ten thousand workpeople are en-
ployed by these companies. These numbers
are daily increasing. A large number of COM
mercial men, friends of social progress, in
vcstors and others, though not yet actual
participants in the work, are watching the
movement with great interest.

1876 passengers. The immigrants comprised
3O5 married people, 439 single men, 223 single

seven years ravaged Thessaly, was attacked in

hundred and twenty mounted Circassans. A
sanguinary combat ensued and the entire
band composed of sixty men, was destroyed.
All the brigands were either killed or wounded.
The chief is among the dead. Only five of
the Circassians were injured.
