prepared unhnchingly to deny. A Conserva-
tive Democrat is an incarnate contradiction.
Conservatism halts, hesitates, trembles, doubts,
and turns its gaze wistfully to the past.
Democracy advances, is confident, is bold, is
decided, and looks hopefully to the future /;
but Conservative Democrat must nave one
eye at least in the back of his head weep
ing for extinct despotisms, while with tlle other
eye in his forehead he marks the signs OIL
human advancement. 1t would be very
curious physiological circumstance II 1t should
turn out that Mr.. BelmOnt's delegates, the
Democratic Conservatives and the Conservative
Democrats, resemble each other in having both
eyes in the back regions, exhibiting something
of "a hungry look by reason of their neigh
borhood to the chronological organ of alimen-
tiXenehs.

that Mr. A. Belmont, banker, and Chairman

The brokers of this State who buy and sell
real estate and other property on commission
petition the Legislature to let them alone. In
other words, they ask to be allowed to charge
for their services whatever may be agreed on
by the parties; whereas, a clause in the Revised
Statutes restricts them to a specified percent
age, no matter what the difficulty or value OF
the service Believing this reasonable and right,
we trust the Legislature may do what they ask.

The latest dispatches from Gen. Napier ex-
press fear that, during the approaching rainy
season, the communication of the English army
with the sea-cOast will be frequently, if not
wholly, interrupted. The General, therefore,
requests a heavy remittance of treasure before
the setting in of the rainy season. This season
is likely to be the greatest obstacle to the sue

The bill concOcted in the interest of the
present managers of the Erie Railroad, and
designed to legalize their recent unauthorized
issue of S10,OO0,000 of additional stock where
with to cover their short" sales on time, was
driven through the Senate on Saturday,
having exactly votes enough to pass it. Here

Though this bill has been greatly modified
since its introduction its essential vice is rather
ingeniously cloaked than extirpated. Two sets
of stock gamblers have become involved as
antagonists in certain gigantic operations IN
Erie; one set selling, the other buying, an
enormous amount of stock deliverable at
specified times in future The selling set are
likely to be worsted and, not having the stock
they have oversOld, but having control of the
company's books and business, they proceed to
fabrcate S1O,OOO,OOO of new stock wherewith TO
pay their bets and so make money where,
according to the fair rules of the game, they
are heavy losers. Now, we have no personal
knowledge of the way in which the Hon. John
Morrissey, the Hon. Benz Wood, John {.
Heenan, esq, and other Democratic mag
mates, conduct their business operations,
with paste board pictures but, if they really
do resort to lodges as unfair and tricky as
this $1OOOO,OG0 issue, they ought to be cutting
stone on Blackwell's Island forthwith. And If
they, having lost appeal to the Legislature to
transform their losses into winnings, they have
fallen to such depth of degradation that even
blacklegs should refuse to speak to them. q
The cry of Monopoly !" whereby this stock
Job is sought to be driven through, is an insult
TO the public understanding. If it be proper
and wise to provide by law against a virtual
consolidation of the Erie with rival roads, there
are proper ways of eflecting the end in view;
but this legalizatiOn of an issue of bogus stock
is not among them. 1t were as sensible to seek
to cOunteract a monopoly in Banking by legal
izing the issue and circulation of counterfeit
notes.
What the Assembly will do with this bill re-
mains to be seen. It has once voted down
kindred measure by 50 to 33, or thereabout;
but financial arrangements may have since been
made which give a totally new aspect to the
matter. We shall see.
We trust Gov. Fenton will scrutinize very
thoroughly any bill which may reach him
which proposes to legaze issues of stock made
without due authority. 'Once open this door,
and all manner of fraud and villainy will pour
through and enlarge it.

REVIEW OF THE WEEK.

LITTLE SISTERS THE PooR.-Among the
events of the week just past none, III our
opinion is of more interest, both In It's pres
ent and future consequences, than the arri-
val of the Little Sisters of the Poor. 1hey
have been long expected and impatiently await
ed and the announcement we now make VIII,
we are sure convey unalloyed pleasure to tine
whole community, without distinction OF opin-
ion OF faith, rs we may reasonably nope 1or
the same blessings which have followed Ill
every locality where they have established
themselves. To consecrate ones self to the ser
vice of the sick and poor, is undoubtedly no
BILE and holy work, requiring lively faith ana
an ardent love of God and our neighbor. But
to make ourselves the poorest of the poor, tor
the sake of the poor, to solace the poor al .neN
rr;yations to participate in those privations'
choosing the bitterest cup of poverty-fequiies
indeed a heroic degree of charity-and such Is
the daily life of the Little Sisters Oh inc oo''
while the Door and infirm in general receive

thev are in a special manner consecrated 70
