New-York tribune., 1868-04-23

So far as we can judge from the very brief
report of Legislative proceedings the business
at Albany yesterday was not of absorbing IN
terest. The great jobs, except the City Tax
Levy, are in allegiance, and few of them are
likely to go through. OF course the Tax Levy
must and in this we shall see some of the
grossest swndles ever perpetrated. 1t is kept
back to the last moment, and we have no
doubt the additions made, and to be made,
will astonish even those who have seen the
infamous County Tax bill. The Assembly has
stayed beyond its hundred pay-days; but there
is a lobby that can afford to pay ten times the
States SO per diem for the services of the
honest gentlemen who hold on at the Capitol.
New-York tribune., 1868-04-23
ANOTHER GRAB.

Hitherto we have had charge of s. per
case, expenses extra, for COrOners fees. In the
Supervisors little bill printed in our paper
yesterday, the superntendents of the accident
ally departed asked for the year 1868 the sum
of SS6,5O0, which, at the rate above stated,
would provide for 1900 deaths in which the
Coroners are supposed to rightfully interfere.
The number of proper cases for inquest,
including stllborn infants who are said to be
kept in bulk for official convenience, is less
than one quarter of this amount, and it is
pretty certain that instead of 1900 there are
not more than one-tenth of that number on
whom inquests really need to be held.
But look at the little swindle just proposed.
Instead of s. per dead body, the post-mortem
operators ask for S15 EACH That is, they want
their S36,50O multiplied by three, making it
SlO9,500. AS there are but four CorOners in
the city, we feel decidedly impressed with
their modesty-they ask not more for each
one of them than ten per cent over
the salary of the President of the United
States. and only about three times as much as
the Mayor with all his perquisites. If .he
Legislature advances Coroners' fees from five
to fifteen dollars, they will add just sixty
seven per cent to a tax that is now so great
an attraction that men are anxious to expend
twenty thousand dollars to secure the Office of
Coroner for term of four years.
Give these men salary-any sum within
reason; do not put them at piece-work; do
not allow them to tax the county for imaginary
inquests, or unheld sittings upon such plain
cases as those of premature birth; do not
encourage them, by sliding scale of. fees, to
obtrude inquests where they are neither neces-
sary nor decent; do not put it in the power of
man who decides upon the prOpriety and
legitimacy Of our death. " oler a lib

Let there be some consideration, at least, for
those who have passed away. We know, eood

New-York tribune., 1868-04-23

We print elsewhere a description of the Ap-
praiser's Department of the Customs of the Port
of New York, exhibiting the reforms which have
been introduced since its establishment as an
independent office. Under the diligent and able
management of Mr.. Thomas McElrath, the
present Appraiser of the Port, this branch of
the Revenue service, which was formerly the
subject of perpetual complaint, on the part OF
both the Government and the mercantile com
munity, has become perhaps the most efficient
and well organized public institution of this
city. The testimony of those leading importers
whose interest lies in the effectual prevention
of frauds by irresponsible merchants is con-
current in its praise.

THE CLOSE OF THE TRIAL.

The Washington correspondence of The Bos-
ton Advertiser says:
The Senate after the close Of the arguments, will

be offered by Judge Edmunds TO admit the official report
ers that the speeches Of the Senators may be taken
down and printed with the report Of the trial aud hafa
dozen members already known TO be in favor Of snch
procedure, while several will oppose 1t strongly. Tho
the separate articles Of impeachment will be tax
in open Senate on Wednesday or Thursday probably
VI week When the question arises OF pronoureing
Judgment in case one or more OF the articles
Is sustained, the Managers will make the usual
demand, and the Senate may possibly then retire again
for consultation At this point interesting law cues
ton Is likely TO be raised. The Constitution says two
thrds vote shall be necessary to convict, but Is silent
the the Judgment and the question is whether
majority two-thirds must agree 10 tho sentence
OF the lawyers in the Senate looking author

twOhrds Of the Senators would agree TO this sentence
