Roumania claimed few days ago that the
Russian sbrogation of the Paris Treaty multi
fed her obligations enforced in that document
She has now declared her independence. In
other words, the Danubian Provinces of Tur-
key are detached from that power as the first
result of the Russian declaration. The effect
has followed so promptly the cause that it
would seem to have been a pre-aranged con
clusiOn between the Car and the HOspodar,
and perhaps the Pussian King, of whose
house the reigning Prince of Roumania is "a

The Coroner's Jury investigating the late
massacre caused by the falling of Mr.. Hale's
house exoHcated the Building Inspectors and
condemned the Building laws of the State in
a verdict which reads sagcly enough, but which
impresses one with the idea that Coroner and
Jurymen were better politicians than lawyers.
But since only the laws and the elements are
to blame, shall we have the former amended,
or is this to be the insignificant end Of a very
seriOus matter

Demonstrations in this city under Democratic
auspices are apt to be large; but they are not
likely to be influential. The mass meeting of
French sympathzerS at Cooper Institute was,
as a consequence OF the support of the Demo

we imagine will not be likely TO give France
so much moral aid as her sad estate demands.

THE FINANCES OF THE CITY.

Step by step the Administrators are re-
storing the finances OF the city from chaos
In very few days the city will have prac
tically resumed cash payments. The first
financial operation was the resolution
offered by Administrator Shaw to pay the
charitable institutions, Including the or
phan asylums of all the various religious in
stitutions to which the city was in arrears.
This passed, and the asylums received the
amounts due for the past three months in
cash-a realization such as they had not
been used to for long time. The next
movement was taken by several of the de-
partments at the last meeting, to pay in
cash the expenses Of the city for the month
OF April, or coequally with the entrance OF
the Administrators into Office. We under
stand that, with the aid of the arrange.
ments effected with the Bank of New Or
leans, the city will pay all these obli'
cations in cash.
We hope the next effort Of the city au-
thorities will be to pay the teachers of the
public schools. The unpaid rolls from
July, 1869, to and including February,
and perhaps March, belong to the floating
debt, and must necessarily be paid in
cash on the sale of the three million
bonds. Let the teachers be paid for April;
it is debt of the city, and our citizens
will approve prompt action in the matter.

A meeting Of the new Board of Direc-
tors of the Mechanics and Agricultural
Fair Association took place yesterday for
the election of officers to serve for the en-
suing year. The following gentlemen
were chosen, being all, as We believe, re-
elected:
President, l. N. Marks; First Vice-Pres-
dent, N. E. Bailey; Second Vice-President,
James Jackson; Third Vice-President, G..
Ii. Slocomb; Secretary, Luther Homes.
The standing committees remain the same
as last year.
The gentlemen thus chosen have ex-
erted themselves to make the fair both
useful and successful; and We are glad to
be able to testify to the fact that they
have, TO some extent, infused portion OF
their spirit into other citizens who have,
heretofore, shown some backwardness in
taking hold of anything out of the usual
routine

RELEASE Or pRIsONERS,

A rather startling proceeding has re-
Gently taken effect in the First District
Court on the motion of District Attorney
Gutenberg.
1t is well known to all citizens, quite as
well as to lawyers. that the general
statutes Of the State, including those de-
timing criminal offenses and prescribing
their punishment, have been re-enacted
substantially and in criminal matters e1-
actly in the same words. simultaneously
with The re-enactment all laws on the
same subject matter are repealed
except those contained in the Civil
Code and Code of Practice. There
can be no difficulty in any mind in defin-
ing The legislative intention, and that is
what the Judiciary are created to deter
mine. In all criminal matters the law
has flown on in an uninterrupted and
continuous course in the same words and
with the same meaning. The repeal OF all
laws on the same subject matter operated
no hiatus for single moment in the
existence or force of law expressly
re-enacted. No such meaning or in
tention was expressed; nor can such
be implied, for it is expressly
contrary to what the Legislature
said, and every man of common sense
knows it is contrary to what they meant.
How then the courts which are to decide
the legislative intention, could declare
otherwise, we can not see. We think the
Court was hasty in acting upon the no'le
proseqsa entered by the District Attorney,
and, of couse, we think the District Attor-
ney was wrong We mean no impeach-
ment of the motives of these officers,
which were, without doubt, good. But
the consequences, if further carried ont,
are so startling, that we must, as an Or
gan of public opinion, condemn the
course which has been so hastily taken.
1t is said there is decision of the Su-
preme Court, made at Monroe last sum-
mer, which furnishes some ground for the
doctrine which has been invoked. 1t has
been time and again decided, that de-
cision of the Supreme Court is not of it.
self law. 1t is only a decision of the
Supreme Court, and how often that respec-
table tribunal recedes from its opinions
Even when it adheres to them it is in such
language as this, I'VE see no GROUND for
changing the opinion of this Court, ex-
pressed in the case of SO and-so vs. so-and-
So" etc.

THE MARKETS,

Some rumor-monger has recently started
a report to the effect that the public mar
kets were to be closed on Sundays, by an
order from the city authorities. Upon
inquiry at the City Hall we learn that no
such movement is contemplated. The
Administrator Of the Department of Com
merce, MIR. Emley, who has control OF the
markets, had rot even heard that such a
report as the one above alluded to was
in circulation.

keep well informed about matters occur

sides the above named goods, Mr.. Walshe
has also general assortment of seasonable
goods for children, which parents would do
well to go and inspect Mr.. Walshe be-
lieyes in quick sales and small profits. His
goods are always as stylish as any to be
found IN the country, and having been
manufactured expressly for his sales, are re.
liable ia every respect. Go and look at
them.
