THE DUTY or THE HOUR.

At some time and in some way there must
be an end OF the long misrule Of this city.
Our citizens cannot and will not forever
endure that Democratic Imperialism which in
twenty years has paralyzed France, and In
half that time has earned for New York the
reproach of the world because Of her submits
sion to corrupt Oligarchy which, founded
upon perversiOn of the machinery Of popular
government, continues to exist by the terror
ism of manufactured majorities. Such system
may prosper for season, but, as In the case
of it's Napoleonic prototype, its ultimate over
throw is only question of time and means.
There is to-day an almost general repugnance
to the profigacy of our City rulers, but the
multitude have chosen rather to endure present
ills than venture upon n desperate remedy
Tammany was born of this fear, and still ex-
lists upon it. rt
II is not uncommon among substantial citi-
IONS to hear it said that our wrongs must
come at last to the lamp-post. We can be
saved, however, from this desperate resort by
rescuing the ballot-bOx from its violators. We
must have law that will surely secure honest
elections. The repeater must be y0ade certain
of instant and severe punishment. His EN-
ployers must be made felons and treated rs
such, even though it be necessary to empty the
high places of our municipality into the prisons
of the State. The Republican party alone can
insure the tranquil continuance of popular
government, by making sure that the voting
is honestly done and fairly counted. This is
the real issue of the coming campaign, and
one more important was never submitted to
popular decision.

Senate ave oil his tools the military Leaders
are sworn into his service. Though the French
armies be defeated he may still hold on to
his place; though France be ruined, he may
still manage to retain possession of power.
Even at what appears to observers the last
extremity, there are still many maneuvers
which he may try On his own account. AS,
therefore, we consider Louis Napoleon the
greatest enemy Of FraDce-enemy OF French
liberty, power and hOnor-we think his in
trigues are more dangerous at this time to the
glory of France than the movements OF the
German armies. We hope the Liberals of
France will even yet seize the opportunity for
destroying the usurper and obliterating his
dynasty. l -.-
Since the opening Of the war, the French
have taken but very small number OF Ger
man prisoners. In the German victories, on
the other hand, great numbers OF French
prisoners have been captured. We 90 not
think that during the last four weeks, from
Worth to Gravelotte, the Germans have taken
less than forty thousand French soldiers, with
their officers. 1t would be impossible, at this
time, to initiate system of exchange, for the
French have not the prisoners to offer in ex-
change for the men they have lost.
All who have read the historical accounts
of the way in which the French armies plum
dered and rayished the people of Germany
during the ingasions of the First Napoleon,
will see reason to rejoice, in behalf OF hui
mainly, that the French soldiers have been
prevented from entering Germany during the
present war by the strategy of the German
commanders and the courage of the German
troops. 1t will be proud honor for the Ger
man soldiers, at the close of the war, to show
the difference between their conduct while
campaigning in France and the conduct OF the
French troops in Germany under the present
EmpCra uncle.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1870-08-30
HANGINE.

Wall-streetr gives us this problem to solve:
Burglary and Mail Robbery are now punished
by imprisonment for life: If Murder should
subject the culprit to no higher penalty, then
the multitude will be brought to esteem
Murder no more heinous than Burglary or
Mail Robbery.
Which impels us to say
Mail Robbery Was punished with death by
hanging under the laws of the United States
up to a recent period as not merely Burglary
but Forgery, within our recollection, and even
Theft, were punished by the laws OF England
a few generations ago. What must have been
the effect of such indiscriminate severity
So long as we can remember, the nations OF
Christendom have generally been softenlng
their legal penalties, until very few crimes are
now punished capitally where many were half
a century ago. We believe the process has
not yet reached its limit, and that the Gallows
will meet the fate which has already overtaken
the Thumb-Screw,gthe Pillory, the Whipping
Post, &C., and that, upon full experience OF
the consequences, the great majority Will say
Amen!
If it be wise to make such discrimination as
"Wall-street" suggests, let the murderer be
immured for life in an iron cell, let him never
come out, and let no one have power to pardon
him out. Or let the crimes now punished
with life-imprisonment subject their perpetra-
tors to ten years solitary confinement and ten
years more of hard labor in the company of
other felOns. There are many ways of making
the discrimination insisted on, without jerking
a mans head off in attempting to hang him,
as was done a few weeks since.
