We invite attention to the communica-
ton In another column from highly re-
spscted citizen, who is we'll informed in
relation TO the subject on which he writes
We have hitherto expressed our decided
conviction that the removal Of the docks
here will be OF great public advantage.
And, without pretending to any knowl-
edge ofthis particular branch ofbusiness,
we can see no good reason why they
should not be highly profitable to the
stockholders. We think every well-wisher
of the city will second the suggestions OF
our correspondent A half dozen such
enterprises would bring more wealth to the
city than all the cotton we handle.
To bring the Docks here would create
little village where they are located,
and benefit the surrounding property to
q considerable extent. If they are not
established the owners Of adjacent lots
alone will lose more by it than is now
called for.
Can it be possible that the advantage
now offered will be permitted to slip for
want Of attention or public spiritY We
hone not.

NEW YORK.

New YORK, December BIN a con-
versation recently, Senator Cameron, of
Pennsylvania, told Washington CORE
spondent that frmness in the admins
tration of the laws will restore tranquil
lily, and that 6rmness is what the coun.
try obtains in Gen. Grant. The night
before the vote was taken on impeach-
ment, be said Gen. Grant visited Ben.
Wade to urge on him the restoration Of
Gen. Sheridan to his command in Louisi-
ana as soon ss he (Wade) become Presi-
dent. Butler, he said, came near being
the present President, as Lincoln wanted
him to run on the ticket in 1864 for Vice
President, but Gen. Butler then thought
the Vice President an exceptional place.
The Herald says of the resignation of
the British minister, that this prompt re-
Spouse to the will of the British people
is popularity expressed, and will be re-
garded with satisfaction by both friends
and foes ofthe late premier. There was,in
fact, no other alternative, and that it
would be happy thing for our own
country if every Cabinet minister should
feel obliged to tender his resignation to
the President whenever the popular will
has been expressed in opposition
to the measures Of en- existing
administration. The policy of the new
British ministry will, no doubt, soon
be developed. In the meantime we await
the course of events in Great Britain with
profound interest. They may be preg-
nant with significant consequences, not
only to the future of the whole British
empire, but to the progress of Liberalism
among European nations generally.
The Herald also commendsSheridan
against the Indians as the
only true plan Of dealing with them.
1t is stated that Mr.. Seward and sew
,ral of his friends are making prepara-
ions to visit Europe Immediately after
Grant takes the Presidential chair.
Nothing remains now Of Fort Lafay-
,tte but a ruined mass of brick and
mortar. There is no fire on the prem

,ral unexploded shells remain among
