Right we'll Mayor Hall knows that there is
no salvation for Tammany except by falSlfy-
ING the election returns, and right promptly
lie has begun to prepare for it. lie intlmates
in circular from his Chief Clerk, issued yes
terday, that he has not the power to appoint
new Inspectors for all the Districts, and it is
clear that he has little inclination to select for
the Districts under his control men who are
above suspicion, and ON whom the people rely
implicitly. Three-fourths of the old In
spectors were men who made the cleo
ton frauds of last year possible, and with
out whose cODnivance at repeating and
miscounting Tammany could never have
crossed Kingsbridge with the majority that
enabled the Democracy to carry the State.
The new appointments, as far as heard from
we publish the list of Republicans appointed
in the Eleventh Ward-are not encouraging;
they labor under the grave suspicion OF not
being known to the general public 1t GER
tainly appears possible to find three score good
and true men in each Ward-men known to
the whole community as trustwOrthy-tO guard
the ballot box at this time of its greatest peril.

Nine counties in South Carolina have long
been the scene Of violent and brutal dOings of
the Ku-Klux. Due notice has been heretofore
given that martial law would he proclaimed
unless these outrageous acts ceased and now
the President makes official proclamation conf
handing that these unlawful combinations
and conspiracies dispense within five days. OF
course, this means that martial law will come
next in the nine counties referred to. Martial
law is to be dreaded, but it seems that moth
ing else can put down the determined ku-
KluX Of South Carolina.

ORR UUMBLE SERVANT.

Mr.. James Fisk, .jr., is never so happy as
when he has a chance to Justify his rcputa-
ton as the most impudcnt man in America.
Foresccing little trouble when the next Legs
lature comes to look into the Charter, the Erie
bill, the Election laws, and other matters in
which Tammany is particularly interested, he
resolved TO fOrtify himself by extending his
term of office as an Erie Director and he had
the face to do it by assuming part III which
he had never before appcarcd-that OF an
humble and Obcdient servant of public opinion.
When the Erie bill was passed in May, 1869,
giving Fisk, Gould, and Lane five years of
Office instead of the one year for which they
had been elected, Mr. Fisk felt so strong in
the possession of the stolen English shares
that he postponed classification under the
new law until after the election of
Directors in October of that year, thus
prolOnging his term of power until 1874 in
stead of 1873. Finding himself again in
majority at the annual election last Tuesday,
he secured further extension until 1876 by
the farce Of resignng and being Immediately
rcGlccted and we suppose he will repeat the
process whenever in future he may chance to
find himself strong enough. lie protested on
tuesday 10 nave Suuuenly ulSCoNCIcu ludI tHc
Classification act had been unfavOrably crit
icscd by the press and the public; and as he
could not bear to do anything improper or to
expose himself to injurious suspicious, he
FASTENED to lay down the scepter and retire
into private life until the stockholders saw tit
to call him back again. The stockholders, of
course, called him back again Immediately.
In fact, when Col. Fisk stepped out of the
Board Room he left, so to speak, his gum
shoes on the mat, and he was rcadmitted as
readily as in happier days, he used to get
into certain bower whose delights have been
fully described in The Blatherskite and similar
fashionable journals.
Perhaps the resignation of the financial Field
Admiral was suggested by the rumor of start
ling developments in the Stokes suit now
before Judge Ingraham. Perhaps his prompt
restoration must be accepted as confirmation
of the report long current that one result of
the depreciation of Erie stock under Mr..
Fisk's management has been to enable that
disinterested gentleman to get possession of
an immense amount of scrip whose selling
value had been run down to a figure CORE
spending with the length of HIS purse. But
however this may be, the modest air with
which he assumes O profound regard for the
opinions of mankind must be looked upon as
the most stupendous joke of his whole prepos-
ferrous career

The noble work of subscriptions to the
Chicago Relief Fund las been handsomely
begun in London, the American Minister
the Hon. r. G.. Schenck, having pre-
sided over an enthusiastic meeting i'll that
city, at which fifty thousand dollars in
gold was subscribed. San Francisco has
sent over one hundred thousand, probably in
coin, besides provisions and clothing. Our
Ncv-York and Brooklyn subscription has IN
creased to million dollars, and the good work
goes on unhaggingly in all parts of the coun-
try, and in Europe. Let Ills still strain every
nerve for now is the time to provide for the

II is evident that tho Ring does not intend
70 hermit the investigation which it has in
yited at the hands of the Committee OF Cltl-
Gems to be complete and impartial. The Super
visors have been formally asked by the Citi-
Gems and repeatedly urged. by The TRIBUNE
to confer upon their own Committee the power
to send for persons and papers, in order that
further and more detailed inquiry may be
made into the transactions which have been
shown to be at least irregular and suspicious

FIRE ~ TIE WOODS.

While Chicago was burning on Sunday night
and Monday, cOnhagratiOn still more terrible
in its grandeur, and not less destructive per-
haps of human life, though less appalling in
its financial ruin, was spreading CONSERVATION
over the north western shore OF the same lake
whose waters were already glowing with the
flames of the prairie metropolis. 1t has been
generally known since August that extensive
fires prevailed in the forests of Wisconsin and
that part of Michigan which lies on the PEN
insula directly north. Many villages In the
numbering region had been consumed; but the
full extent of the confagration has been only
vaguely limited at, as the country over which
the flames have spread is sparsely settled and
not intersected by telegraph lines. 1t now
appears that the fires have been raging in
the counties of OcontO, Manitowoc, Brown,
Ontagamie, Waupaca and Shawanaw. This
strip OF territory, lying between Green
Bay on the east and Fox and Wolf
Rivers on the west, comprises a tract
OF four thousand square miles, the greater

NJ Coquercl, in his lecture on the Siege of Paris,
given in Boston on Monday evening. and which Is so
soon to be repeated in this city, denied that either
Frenchmen OF Germans wished for the late war.
There were two culprts. and these were the two
emperors. NJ Coquerel did not mention the En-
peror once by name, but no said that France for
twenty years had suffered such cruel wrong from his
rule that it was hard to speak of him impartially.
The great cause of his failure traced by the lee
turer to the campaign in Mexico inspired by hatred
of the United States The description given of the
incidents Of the siege WAS exceedingly interesting
and the reGeivery of the discourse in Newlork
will be eagerly anticipated.

The general impression prevailed In the
Courts, yesterday, that Judge lngraham could
not long hesitate over the question of the
right of Mr.. Havemeyer to insist on an exam
ination of Ingersoll. At any rate, the Judge
cannot make a great mistake in allowing the
examination of the great furniture contractor
to proceed; for if the Ring is innocent no
harm can come to it from his testimony, and
If its members are guilty they have no rights
which the people, whom Mr. Havemeyer truly

DR.. Connolly, the Catholic Archbishop of Hall
fax " s. has been i'll Boston and has been
interviewed by reporter of The Pilot news
paper. His opinions (which are mainly SEN
sible) on Orange professions and other Irish
demonstrations were given freely to the reporter,
and it may be wholesome to reproduce them here.
His Grace thinks that fair and anlicabe under
standing between Catholics and PrOtcstants of all
denominations is needed for the material and spirit
ual progress of Catholicty in this land" nor does
he see any good in scnseess enmity arising from
bygone feuds" He regards the practice of Orange
paradcs as "absurd' and IAN unmeanng farce
In the event of future "Orange psrades," the Arch
bishop says: There must be no violation of the
laws of the land under any circumstances whatever.
The Interpretation of the law by the unreasoning
mob is i'll opposition to the law of God as wellas the
laws of the free country in which we live" DR..
Connolly does not any approve of ST. Patrck's
Day professions than of the other kind and he
even goes to the extent of thinking that all such
demonstrations should be forbidden by the law.
This is rather melancholy conclusion to come to in
this land of the largest liberty; but if the question
be between professions and mobs (which we don't
believc) pray let us have no professions.

In 1850 Chicago had only 1858 inhabitants. Dur
ing the succeeding decade the population nearly
auadruplcd and III 1860 she had 10. J3 persons living
within her limits. In 1870 the number had increased to
29S or. The which enabled Chicago to gather
such numbers greater than in the last two de-
cadcs, while many circumstances then unfavorable
to her growth no longer exist The number and inn
portancc of the railroads concentrating at Chicago
are greater; the area of cultivated land around
her is vastly wider; the manufactures which
find II market i'll her marts are far more extensive
than in the period during which she advanced to be
the fifth city in the Union. Immigration to which
the burned city owed many thousands of residents,
is also more steady and greater than it has been
within the past twenty years. In the mean time the
causes which retarded the city's progress have been
partially OF entirely removed. War no longer
dycrts thousands of her citizens from the pursuits
of peaceful industry; national taxation has been
reduced and more cquitably adjusted, while the
currency of the country has appreciated. In addi-
ton to all this Chicago has recently shown deter
mination to abandon dependence on commerce alone,
and proved her capacity for manufacturing industry.
In view of all these auspclous circumstances, it Is
impossible to doubt that Resurgan would form a true
and appropriate motto for the devastated city.
