world who can make correct estimate Of the work

Rock as 1t is done is only throwing 1t away For
S. e00 900 "A. b. S." would guarantee that he would
make q channel through Hell Gate twenty feet In
depth, and his suretes are ready. His proposition Is
novel in this respect-that he wants no payment from
the government until his work shall have been COM
pleted and he would have the whole contract price,
with interest from the date of the contract He says
that his associates are ready to proceed his plan

The Rieh,s Of Children In City Cars.

"Citizen" relates to US at length the following.
which he wltnessed:-He was an up town passenger
in car No. SO on the Tenth Avenue Railroad. The
seats were all occupied, and among the passengers
seated was little girl Of respectable and dehcate
appearance, about ten years of age stalwart
youth Of fashionable exterior entered, and after
standing half o minute or SO the conductor made
the little Girl leave her seat and give 1t to the young
man, who took 1t. The conductor was demonstrated
with, but gruffiy answered that 1t was none OF the
other passengers business and that the girl, being
'haif fare" was not entitled to seat when pas.
senger who paid full fare obliged to stand. The
girl was alone. The writer asks, ls half price
charged for children that the company may eject
them from their seats TO make room for grown pas
sebgers or IS 1t not rather because child occupies
less space and is less weight to hauP And he
properly contends that child Is as much entitled as
grown person to the natural space It Will occupy
on car seat. The natural inference from the prac-
tice OF railway companies to allow STANDING room"
only for "half fare" is that person who has not

The array of horrors presented in our
columns on ore or two days last week is
almost matched by the record this morning.
We have a bold street robbery on Third-avc.;
a homicide on FOurth-st.; murder Of n
wife by her husband in a drunken
brawl on Roosevelt-st.; the effort of a
deserted wife TO commit suicide by stabbing
herself in the throat a stabbing afray in First
ave-; the death of one of the parties wounded
in the affray last Thursday night on First
ave.. and still further and apparently conclu-
siye evidence against the propretOrs of the
Twenty-thirdst stables, who are charged
with the monstrous crime of burning these
buildings with all their living occupants for
the sake Of securing the insurance. These are
merely the leading and exceptional cases.
They certainly present no signs of any dimi-
mutton of crime in the city.

Now is there anything in the aboye-quoted
section which authorizes and enables a polti-
cal minority, controlling II out of the so
Senate districts, to dictate to the clear majority
what measures they shall and what they shall
not pass May they constitutonaly, by per-
sistent resigning and re-resigniDg, prevent all
legislation whatever7 We say, No; such is
not the fair construction of the clause in ques-
ton. We hold that the words " "two-thirds of each
House" do not necessarily require two-thrds
of all the members who may at any time have
been elected thereto. but two-thirds of those
who are still members. In other words, we
construe the requirement exactly as Speaker
Colfax construed the parallel requirement of
the Federal Constitution when he decided the
Amendment abOlshing Slavery adopted by the
votes of two-thirds of the Representatives in
Congress present and voting, though ten or
eleven States were wholly unrepresented and
presumptively hostile to the Amendment.

if ratification should depend on the vote Of

that any State should refuse its assent to so
righteous and necessary a measure; and we
hope to see it sanctioned by at least 30 of the
90. But if we should be disappointed in this
if there should be but 90 recorded in its favor
beside Indiana, we shall insist that it is the
law of the land, and shall hope to be sustained
therein by The Times.

Lord Clarendon, tho London papers assure
us has vindicated the dignity of England in
his last speech, and that the United States
must approach the Claims settlement in diff
ierent temper than that Of Mr.. Sumner. That
settlement, it seems to us, is between Mr.. Mot
ley and the English Government, and between
Mr' FISH and Mr.. Motley. We are not aware
that Mr. Sumner is either Secretary of State
or Minister to England-nor is it necessary to
argue that we shall be better satisfied with n
just award Of dollars in the matter in debate,
than with any expense of speech or of senti-
ment. At this stage OF mutual recrimination
and explanation the two countries ought to be
anxious to define the question with common
