There is evidently to be long delay and
much dispute over the rival Army bills of the
House and Senate. The latter will not get out
of tho hands of the Committee for week to
come, and, if adopted in the Senate, will meet
with bitter opposition in the House. And yet
the disposition in both wings of tho Capitol
seems to be for retrenchment and reduction to
the minimum figures In dollars and men. There
ia encouragement enough In this to justify the
exercise of some patience, and the public will
probably rest satisfied for a brief time with
the present prospect; but in the end it will
insist on the adoption of some rigid measure
of economy in this expansive service.

The Common Council has under consideration
resolution directing their Clerk to have IL, 600
copies of the Corpofation Manual printed, and
approprating $4,000 to compile the same. Out
of this little egg the City Hall Ring, after due
course of Matching expects to bring forth a
chicken that will afford most excellent picking
In accordance with the resolution the bill against
the city will be between 100000 and $4,000. the
price of each book being from 81 to So; but
whether the number of volumes ordered will ever
be printed, is aquestion thatcan only be answered
by the Ring or its printer. Since it is the pop
ular belief, however, that not more than one
third of the number ordered is ever printed,
and since this belief is strengthened by the
well known fact that, with an occasional excep-
ton, only few Tammany office holders and
rcpeaters' ever get copy, it is fair to pre-
sumo that after the printer is paid for the ac-
tual amount Of work done, tit-bit of about
$4,000 will remain to be divided among the
Ring. Under the management of Mr. Val
entine, the former Clerk, the Manual cost
but a trife when compared with this,
yet it contained much valuable information
about the early history of our city, besides a
complete directory of City and County officers
with the salaries received by each; and its
pages were embellished with many fine litho-
graphs of old landmarks and city scenes which
made it very interesting as a connecting link
between the past and the present Under the
present Clerk, Mr.. Joseph Shannon, the Manual
has become o very different affair. One i'm
portant omission is the list Of officers drawing
salaries from the City and County Government,
for which the compiler makes the lame apol-
ogy that he did not think it necessary to in
sert it, "since by an act Of the Legislature the
Common Council has no power to create any
"new Office or to increase tho salary of any
"person holding Office under the present char
"ter; and, therefore, that tho list is about the
same us that published last year." We might
believe this if it did not conflict with
the recent action of the Common Council
by which the salaries of their numerous
Doorkeepers and Sergeants-at-Arms have
been increased about 90 per cent, and
several new clerks have been appointed. Be-
side this, the Deputy Tax Commissioners have
had their salaries raised to $4,000 per annum
since last years Manual appeared. The true
reasons for leaving out this list are, that its
publication would afford the public an Oppor-
tunity of seeing few of the many ways in
which they arc swindled-of knowing how

The Democratic politicians who did their
best to swindle the electors of Brooklyn out
of their choice of public officers last Novem-
Der, have obtained another postponement OF
some of the trials. 1t is plain that the little
villains who did the nefarious work have hold
on the big villains who instigated them, which
renders the dispensation of justice in their
cases impossible. The people will hold all con-
cerned to a stern accountability.

Tho remainder of the week will be devoted

The Annual Election in this State takes place
next Monday, and the vote OF the two parties
is so nearly equal that we urge every RepuD-
lican clectOr now at home not to start on
Journey till after voting and every elector now
away from home to make his way back to his
own freside before Saturday shall give place
to Sunday If Gov. jewell shall be beaten, it
can only be through apathy or heedlessness on
the part of those who should be his supporters:
make sure that the fault-if fault there be

Tammany office holders is trying his teeth on

enough in our City treasury to corrupt that

We deeply regret that some protested Re-
publican officers and journals have been YER
dant or venal enough to be tricked into the
support of William NJ. Tweed. The unscru-
pulous "Ring" of which he is the leader
seemed in danger of overthrow at the
hands of its creator, the Tammany Cen
eral Committee. Mr.. Tweed preferred not to
abide the result of the meeting called for last
evening at Tammany Hail. Yet there was no
honest way to dodge the issue. Accordingly a
portentous story of anticipated riot was
concocted; the authorities were wheedled
into sending up the Police by battalions; the
Sachems of Tammany, in pretended alarm, de-
clared that their own Committee should not
meet in their own hall; the Police took
possession; Mr.. Tweed quietly rubbed his
hands over the success of his strategy,
and the discounted Young Democracy
found their only satisfaction in snlphurous
speeches under another roof. Thus far the
Democratic fight therefore is drawn. Mr.. Tweed
is still Chairman of the Tammany Committee,
but lie has the moral disadvantage of having
evaded show of strength. The Re-
publcans who helped him, appear be-
fore the public as silly dupes, or worse !;
and the Young Democrats are left outside
Tammany, gnashing their teeth at their own
defective strategy. The fight cannot end here;
but we wait events, before discounting the
good results expected from its continuance.
We are habitually cautious about expecting
too much aid to public morals from the quar-
rels of thieves over their spolls.
