AVOID 1T ALTOGETHER.

The jealouses of the Police Justices have
led to a movement for disturbing the Court of
Special Sessions in which we heartily join, but
for purpose somewhat different from that Of
the magistrates. They complain because only
the Justices elected from the lid and With
Districts can sit in this tribunal, and we object
to anybody's having that privilege. They pro-
nose that all the nine Justices shall in turn
occupy the coveted bench, and we insist that
there shall be no bench at all. While their
plan will lead to the continuance OF the evil
in another and equally Objectionable shape, our
proposal involves its total extinction. The
Court of Special Sessions has always been
anomalous and unnecessary. There is
an irresistible inclination in its Judges
to travesty law aud pervert justice,
and it lacks sense i'll the estab-
lishment of court where two magistrates pass
Judgment on their own acts Or as it is pro-
posed to reconstruct the tribunal, where nine
do the same thing. But if third idea were
adopted and set of magistrates specially
elected for it, the Special Sessions would still
be an impeachment in the way of melting out
justice to the petty criminals Of the city,
nearly half of whom escape all punishment,
because the accuser finds when he goes to
the Police Court that he must waste time and
temper in dancing attendance on second
court before he can get his case tried
The remedy for an evil admitted by all per-
sons having any knowledge of our criminal
matters is plainly to abolish the Special SEES
sions and vest in the Police Justices sitting as
such the power of inflictng the statutory pen
altes for msdemeanors. In the immediate dis
position of cases that would follow from this
plan, the proverbial safety found in the laws
delays would be greatly decreased; indeed, the
advantages of the reform are so obvious that
it can only be objected that our Police Justices
are unfit to be trusted with this power. Two
of them, however. are now vested with these
prerogatiyes, and it is simply proposed that all
shall be. .

How Diversified Industry enriches nation
was shown by Theirs in the Commercial Treaties
debate in the Corps Legislatif. Pleading for
protection to the Cotton manufacture OF
France, threatened with extinction by British
Free Trade, he said ave manufacture from
1000 900 to 100000 bales of cotton, which rep
present nearly 5000 900 of francs. When this
"raw material has been spun and wOven-con-
"verted into goods for the Indian market
"into the printed calicoes of Mulhausen-lnto
"cotton velvets-into all the fabrics which
serve for clothing for the people-into fancy
goods and mercery--the 3OO,OOOOCO of francs
"have increased to 1,lOOOOO,OOO or 1,2OOeOO,OO0."
The secret purpose with which Golden nego-
tiated with Napoleon the Treaty of Commerce
was to destroy this profitable French industry
and to substitute in place of it the purchase Of
cottons from England. The value to France
of her Cotton Industry is a measure OF the
folly of her tyrant in negotiating Free Trade.

What is a bad mani And can it be possible
that bad men" ever get into Congress We
would MT even suggest such a thing for the
world, only in the sweet little passage alarms
last Thursday between Messrs. Cox aud Butler,
the former called the latter "a bad man :" and
said that everybody, on both sides, knew the
gallant General TO be "a bad man." and also
"a mb-proof' soldier. We take issue with
Mr. Cox. For once, we cannot agree with him.
Everybody knows that the General is not only
ono of the best, but one of the sweetest-tem-
pered Of mankind in general, and of Congress

PROTECTION TIE ISSUE.

The Sun persists in asserting that there are
"ten OF twelve other Republicans" in the House,
in addition to those who voted for Marshall's
antiPrOtective resolves, "who agreed with
"them in the main proposition, but preferred
"to get rid of it by an evasive vote"
We should not like to have people who agree
with us vote that way. Mr.. Marshalls pro-
position was straight forward and unequivOcal.
Its gist was the assertion that no higher duty
should be levied on any article than would
produce the largest amount of revenue from
that article. If, for instance, 81 per tun on
Pig Iron would produce more revenue from
Pig Iron than 81 or So, then 81 should be the
rate, no matter how much the revenue might
lose through the introduction of Iron in this
form that, under higher duty, would come in
as Bar Rail- Rod or manufactured Iron. We
cannot imagine why any one but Protectionist
should vote to lay that proposition on the table
If any did so vote who believe in adjusting du-
ties with an eye to revenue solely, The San is
quite right in saying that they lacked "cOur-
lager But of whom were they afraid
The Sun proceeds to lecture and admonsh us
as follows:

tectye Tariff Of those issues upon which the
Republican party the future safely 90 TO the coun

here from the country in search TOT such en-
nlovment would run the risk OF starvation De-
fore she obtained it.
Our final advice to all past or future appli-
cants is: "Stay at home, where you are known,
and where You will at least be sure OF That
"buman sympatby-that esprit du corps which
"forms mart of the atmosphere of country

"you in the streets of a great CITY, ho"e'e,

herself by what unwomanly name sue WILL

"hausted receiver Being at nome, take up

fear his competition. The very novelty Oh
"the attempt will insure success" The EN-
nlovment of the weaker sex, even as saeswo-
men in shops, is unknown in most Southern
or Western towns. They are confined there,
nv custom, to the needle or the teachers desk.
The woman who opens any other avenue Tor them
by the example of her own courage and integrity
in labor not only serves herself but establishes
a city of refuge for countless other needy ana
feebler victims to whom the social barriers are
now impregnable. But let her make her city
of refuge enduring. Let her remember, before
beginning, that in the world of trade her pltia-
BILE condition will avail her nothing. Its laws
are hard but inhexible; it is the contract hon
estly fulfilled the undertaking most thor
oughly finished, the9 artists touch III the PIC
ture the sound hard logic in the speech that
in the end commands the reward; not beauty
in distress, or starving children. Wages follow
the worker, not the pauper; charity belongs to
another question. If the necessities OF mind
and body to-day force women to take up the
work of men, few men would be so churlish,
for the sake of their own shattered ideal, as to
refuse to bid them God-specd But, coming
into our world of labor they must submit 10
our laws, and be subject to our defeats; and
the first and most memorable of its maxims is
that which demands hard drudgery from every
aspirant in every path, and assures us, with
keen worldly wisdom, that it is only success
which insures success.

Mr.. Seward will go to Hayti and San Domingo,
MS we have limited. His presence there will
simply serve to show the relations which
exist between the climates of Mexico, Cuba,
and the general West Indies, and their effect
on American travellers. The Haytians and the
Dominicans will take our word for it that Mr..
Stewards visit will be innocent, conciliatory,
and, rightly taken, in the nature of bene-
dietion. His journey through the tropics is the
very romance of craftsmanship, and we hope
the Domincans will welcome him as seer,
and entertain him as a sage. VIII he dare to

At last we have something definite concern
ing the bounties and beauties Of Alaska-sOIIe-
thing in the solemn, trustworthy, official form,
to wit, "a report upon matters in Alaska
Upon its presentation to the House, Mr. Banks
moved that the Secretary of the Interior be
requested to transmit to the House the report
of Mr.. V. Collyer on the fur-seal fisheries Of
Alaska. Then Mr.. Banks again moved that
the Secretary of the Treasury be requested to
transmit TO the House the reports of Mr.. Frank
Wicker on the fur-seal fisheries of Alaska.
Now, we move that all persons knowing any
thing of the fur-seal fisheries of Alaska, whether
by reading, observation hearsay, be at once
summoned to appear before a Special Committee
of the House on the fur-seal fisheries OF Alaska
But this would not be enough. We want more
Committees. We want q Special Committee
on the Grapes, Oranges Lemons, Bananas,
Watermelons, Rice, and Sweet Potatoes of
Alaska We want a similar Committee on the
Gold, Silver, Lead, Pewter, Diamonds, and
Amethysts of Alaska. We want yet another
Committee upon the Natural Scenery of Alaska,
which, we understand, is most beautiful. We
do MT like to ask for too much, but if we could
have another Committee on the brave and
chivalrous Indians of Alaska, it would be more
satisfactory TO our soul.

As developed as was French industry when
England proposed Free Trade and political
friendship to Louis Napoleon, and based the
commercial part of the proposition on the
equality of advantages, the actual difference
between the prime cost of production in En-
gland aud in France was from Is to 20 per
cent. In cotton goods the English had the adj
vantage of the cheapest fuel known, Of al
abundance OF raw material, worldwide mar
ket, commerce over all seas, more and
cheaper machinery, more and cheaper labor.
While the FrenchIhad in motion 100000 cotton
spindles, the English had 100000; while the
French worked up 100000 bales of cotton, the
English manufactured 100000 bales. The pro-
posed reciprocity of advantages threatens to
be q flood of ruin. The French cotton manu-
facture is in danger of being extinguished under
the operation of the British Treaty of Com
merce.

THE N1YUrACTURE OF PAUPERS.


There exists, in this as in most cities, ma
chinery for the multiplication of paupers of re-
markablc perfection and efficiency. 1t is called
bureau (cr something like that for the re-
lief of the Out door Poor--that is, of such pau
pers as are too proud or too genteel to endure
alms-hOuse fare. 1t has usually superintend-
ent and a staff of visitors, &c, who are en-
gagged in clectioneering for the party in power
through the distribution at public cost OF Flour,
Meat Wood, Coal, &c, &C., for the encourage
ment and sustenance of polite beggary. The
Instruments of this bureau, or whatever
il may be called, enter freely and Familiarity
the lodgings of simple, ignorant, needy women,
whose bread is at their mercy, and thus ENJOY
facilities for corrupting and debasing them
which some improve and others neglect but the
whole business is unclean and demoralizing.
A recent exposure of one of these visitors
in Brooklyn, who was caught IN the act OF
adultery with the wife of an absent seaman,
impels The World to describe the functioLary
in question as follows:
ale was recognized as. John Goldng. prominent
politician but equally well known by common repute in
connection with gnmis, ratpits, przehghts doghSht
and other virtues, wherewth men OF less distinguished
reputation and living outside the Patch are not en-
lowed He was a nice companion for the VIE OF an
absent man. lie is also known in connection with the
superntendents OF the Poor, and Of their out
door visitors position which he held under two admin
straons How he visited the poor is matter for serious
reflection. He is a notorious rough who has long
been known such lie has kept a low GROCERY on
The Patch and IS prominent ward politician OF the
Reddythe Blacksmith type. He controls primaries, and
this way has held the position or outdoor Inspector OF
visitor. in the office"
No one need be told what are the politics
of this model inspector-but we do not care
for them. 1t is the system that we are striking
at. Such fellows as this Golding not only
control primaries; !" they control the more
reputable, decorous scoundrels whom their
backing, manipulating and repeating, transform
into Aldermen, Assembymen, Sheriifs, Clerks,
&c. They live idly and lewdly on their tacit
allotment of "the spoils" of the victories they
win for their masters-the spoils of honest
ax-payers and of the virtue and honor of the
poor. Is it not high time that the partnership
were broken ND
