Our economical Legislature proposes to give
each of the Justices of District Courts in this
City the appointment of as many Marshals as
lis Honor may think proper. That will make
places for some two hundred needy and seedy
patriots. whose repeating and vote-countiDg
services are yet unrewarded. Put down
quarter of a million for City Marshals. or
course the regular police will do the work, and
the new Marshals will have no heavier duty
than drawing, salary, talking politics around
cheap bar-rooms, carrying primary elections,
and, in emergency, running gangs of repeaters.

We have noticed the bill introduced on
Tuesday, at Albany, to extend MadlSon-aYe,
in o sOuthery direction, to Broadway anu
Union-square. If the avenue is continued IN
straight line into Universlty-place, 1t VIII cut
off tho three Broadway fronts between Seven
teenth and Twentieth-sts., and cut through the
three blocks between Twentieth and Twenty
thrd-sts. All of this is very valuable improved
property. The residences III the path OF the
proposed extension are many OF them very hne,
the best of them worth more than $4,000 each,
and the poorest-in both cases counting IN the
value of the lot-hed at not less than $4,000.
The lowest estimate for the land and damages
from destruction of buildings cannot be less
than S1,OOO,OOO Of course there is much -
offset this, and it is equally certain that I'M
scrupnlous combinations Of plunderers and
politicians have already taken the necessary
steps to secure the largest possible share OF
the resulting benefits. A horse railroad is In
volved, but whether intended to extend
directly down Broadway to the South Ferry IS
not yet disclosed.

1t having been long well settled that aliens
cannot hold real property in England, we are
rather surprised to find that the late Mr. Pea
body was the owner of certain real estate in
that country. 1t is held that this land now
reverts to the crown, and possession Of it has
been taken by the crown officers. 1t is quite
useless to expcnd any Indignation upon these
public servants, who have merely done what
their oaths required them to do. Even if they
had not acted, the title in the crown would
have remained the same. We reserve our
wrath, until we find that Parliament has not
by act afforded relief TO the execgtQIs' though
we are by no means sure of the power of Par
lament to act in the PREMISES and whether
the crown can ALLEVIATE crown lands, we are not
learned enough to determine.

Ten thousand men have struck at town in
France where NJ. Schneider, the famous In
peral politician, is the principal factory owner.
This is the latest and most overwhelming
wave of that labor agitation which has been a
portentous sign of the hour in France. A few
more such strikes as have lately happened will
Lasten the more general strike for revolution.

A sensible member of the State Legislature
proposes a prevention of ferry accidents sug-
gested years ago by THE TRIBUNE. Only a
simple gate at the end Of the bridge, to be shut
before the boat moves out, and opened only
after the incoming boat is securely fastened
Many lives might be saved by so cheap pre-
ventiye, but no Ferry Company will go to the
enormous expense of fifty dollars unless com
PEELED by law. There should be, on every
boat something like the gates now used on
one or two of the Hoboken boats; a similar
cato should slut down at the edge of the
bridge between the two it would be very diff
fcult for even the most careless or foolllardy
passenger to get into the river

enterprise of this General. and it was even
predicted from Havana that his success would
crush the rebellion. The Cubans have, there
fore, unusual reason to rejoice in the triumph
of their arms. The victory of Siguanea,
achieved by Gen. Cavada with division OF
troops, and now the defeat of Pueblo at Guai-
marc, must give the Cuban cause an impulse
and prestige it has not had heretofore. But
vet we must await full and unquestiohable IN
formation of one of these victories.

Cubans was held in an hour of triumph and
not of despair. Such is the indication of our
news. The speakers who addressed the people
in aid of the struggling patriots, and who are
carefully reported in our columns, conveyed
the hearty desire of our people to encourage
and strengthen people pledged alike to the
overthrow of Slavery and of Spain.

Important Internal Revenue Giro

Important Internal Revenue Circular.
Despatch 90 the AsseeiGted Press.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2l.-Au important circu-
lar, which will greatly tend to facilitate the set
tlement of the accounts of collectors of intsraal
revenue, will be promulgated to- morrow. Under
previous regulations the outstanding collectors
accounts could not be settled until all the taxes
over which they had rc;eipted, and which
remained in their hands upOn leaving offics
should have been accounted for either by cash
collections or claims for abatement and such
claims and such collections tad drst to be made
by the successor in Office and consequently the
settlement of the eX-collector's accounts de-
pended almost entirely upon such successor.
This plan has greatly retarded prompt settle
ments, and the new regulations provide that in
the event of the outgoing collector producing
evidence of due diligence in attempting to col
lect all taxes remaining in his hauds the same
will be credited to his account and charged to
the new official.
The circular Civ particular instructions in
regard to the manner in which tie transfer of
Office shall be made the duty of the outgoing
and new collector, supervisor, assessor, etc.

BASE. BALL.
I,.h

Clnb.
The best friends of the national game will
read with pleasure the following from the Gin
cinnati Enquirer of November 49,
We learn with some surprise of a growing
feeling in the Cincinnati Base Ball Club favor
able 10 the abandonment of the system of play
ing paid players, and of entering the season of
1871 with q strictly amateur nine.
Several causes have conduced to this result,
the fret and principal of which is the fact that
it has been demonstrated, after a full and fair
trial, that club playing professional nine can
not be made self-supporting, and that its trea-
sury must be annually replenished by private
and special contributions of members.
Then, too, there is strong minority in the
club which believes that the original purpose
and true interests of the national game would
be better served by the playing of an amateur
nine, which could be so organized that they
would compare favorably with the Stars of
Brooklyn, the Harvards, and other famous gen.
tlemen players. This object once accomplished
the game, it is argued, would at once resume its
old tone, and become an amusement that would
be eagerly sought and endorsed by all classes of
the community.
The game is no longer new in the West, and
there is little doubt that nine volunteer players
could be had here who would overmaster most
of the professionals, even, who are becoming
unmanageable, and many of whom are putting
a prohibitory tariff upon their services. This
rumor will be of interest to clubs abroad who
are seeking players.
In this connection it has been suggested that
the club engage nine of strictly Western
players. There is talent enough in the West, if
properly collected and managed, to defy all
Eastern combinations, whether hailing from
New York or New Yorks colony on the lake.
This is but the beginning of the end of profess
sional ball-playing, rs it has been practiced of
late years. Ultimately this class will come
under the absolute control of the gambling class.
1t is to be hoped that the Cincinnati Club will
carry out their amateur programme.

large force of laborers has been employed
during the past week in te1ring up the old
causeway walls of the Long Bridge, and the
work is so far advanced as to justify the stone
masons TO commence the rebuilding of the
foundations of the causeway in cement mortar
a day or two hence. The high tides for the last
few days have prevented the workmeu from
getting down to the point desired, and yesterday
the force of men thus employed was transferred
to the south end abutment walls, which are also
to be taken up aud relaid. Nothing has been
done towards rebuilding the piers, but next
week this work will be commenced. Yesterday
about forty stone masons and quarrymen from
Pennsylvania were set to work. most of them
going to the quarry on the Virginia side of the
river, Just south of the Chain Bridge, where the
stone is being dressed for the piers. On next
Monday seventy more stone masons will arrive
from Pennsylvania, and be set at work at once
The stone has already commenced to arrive from
the quarry for the causeway wall. About half
of this wall has been taken
up. and will be relaid in cement
mortar. Much of the old material will be used
in replacing this wall and the south end abut
ment wall, hut the face portion to both the
abutment walls and the piers will be of trimmed
stone, laid in cement. The contract for the new
iron draws has been given to Messrs. Linvlle Sc
Co., bridge builders, of Philadelphia who will
also furnish the woodwork for the entire super
structure, and all will be built there and shipped

the 'IOslems.
correspondent of the London Times who
has received letters from European and native
teachers at the Syrian School in Damascus
gathers therefrom the fact that there had been
an unsettled feeling for some time past. First
came an order from the Turkish Government to
close some mountain schools near Damascus in
connection with the ADglo-A American Mission,
under the plea that no schools would be suffered
but such as had the sanction of the Government
The British-Syrian schools however were pub
licy examined on the 11th of July, attended by
nearly a thousand of the chief inhabitants of
Damascus the civil and military representatives
of the Government and guard of soldiers sent
by the Pasha.
This was followed by the famous eclipse of
the moon on the 18th of July, when it's remark
ably ruddv glow was pronounced by the Moslems
to portend war and bloodshed and truly these
signs in the heavens were but too speedily veri-
fed by the rumor of the war between France
and Germany. Large bodies of soldiers were
ordered to be ready to march, some said against
the Persians others to ConstantinOple, which
the hoslems expected would be attacked by
Russia in case France should be beaten, in which
case 1t was reported that they threatened to
murder the Christians.
Great panic prevailed. Crosses were chalked
upon the walls and publicly spit upon, as in the
massacres of 1860. The Turkish authorities,
however, at once interfered to quel the disturb
apce, and the ringleaders were arrested and pun
ished. The European ladies and native teachers
who had been advised to take refuge at Beyrout
returned TO Damascus, aud as a proof of the
utterly false and grouhdless charge against the
Jewish community, as well as of the mutual
Christians and Jews, it may be observed that
they at once reassembled their pupils, a fair
proportion of whom are children of the first
Jewish families of Damascus.
