The Code Of Procedure is published to-day by The

is a model Of typographical neatncss and compact

with the ponderous octayOs in sheepskin wherein
Codes are generally to be sought.

The several Municipal and County Boards
chosen by the People Of our City sent to Al
bany specifications of such sums as they saw
fit to ask to have inserted in tho City and
County Tax-Levies. Those Boards are not
overstOcked with mOdeSty, and no one has
ever accused them Of parsimony. The Citizens.
Association sent up objections to many items
in those Leves, showing wherein and why
they might be reduced without injury TO the
public. An able and faithful Committee sIftcd

thought could be required, but reducing the
amounts called for by the Boards some Two

A letter from Mayor Hall sounded the rally
for n larger quotientj and Mayor, Controller,

cocted bill which raised several high salaries
still higher, and piled on the extras all around
making au aggregate much larger than the local
Boards had asked for. This ntrocious bill, n
Republican was wanted to offer, to save ap-
poarances; and Mr. Andrew B. Hodges Of
Brooklyn was induced to undertake the detested
Job. He moved to strike ont the Senate bill and
insert this abOmnabe substitute which the
very fellows who were to bag the money did
not venture to have proposed by one Of their
own party. This Hodges substitute was carried,

the independence, when askcd. viii be
freely granted. As part Of this policy, tho
expenses Of these colonies are hereafter IN
ne borne By tho peoplo thereof and not br
tue british Government; and the military
force must hereafter be colonial nnd paid
iof BY the colonies, and not By the Impo-
17n Gosernment The Bzitlsh policy is
Just now directed to teach the colonies to
"ulk alone, and to ba self-suppo1ting and
self-covcrning, and from this it is expected
that they will eventually ask to be made
wholly Independent.
The Canadian Dominion Government is
not favosobly inclined to Independence.
Canada has 80 long been supported by the
British Government that the local Ministry
ahrlnk from the experiment Of self-sus-
timing condition. 1t involves, too, a risk
Of power aud place and official dignity.
With the british North American provinces
erected into an independent nhtoun1ity, it
is feared the proximity Of tho United States
will be dangerous to its stability. In war
it would be helpless, and in time Of peace
the interests Of the two peoples would erent-
rnlly become SO blended Us to Ieaye its ,,lti-
mate incorporation into tho American
Union almost Certainty. In the mean
time, the visit of the Queens son 10 the
provinces will bring but little comfort to
people Who, having been the most loyal de-
pendcnts for over century, find themselves
asked to Try aud support themselves in tho
future. English oppression might be re-
scented, English domination might be tol-
erated, but English indifference is extreme
ly huuliliating. The people Of tho Donin-
ion arc most awkwardly sitnated; Eng
land refuses any further support, receives
their professions Of loyalty with emile,
and urges them to accept an independence
which they do not want. AL this is morti-
flying to people whose boast has been TINT
