ment; by providing for municipal elections In
the spring Of each year, 90 as to place in the
hands of the people the power to make COM
plete change In the city government, II desir-
able, without the embarrassment Of general
election; and by the publication Of oil city
accounts at short intervals. as well as by af-
fording greater facilities to the tax
payers, to restrain and punish abuses and
to secure speedy trials Of offenders in
Independent courts. In addition to this, they
favor the passage OF laws to restrain and
define the power Of towns, counties and muni-
cipalities to create debt and to tax the pro-
perty Of citizsus. This, certainly, creates a
comprehensive, intelligent and eficient plat
form for city reform, and presents practical
end to which the efforts of all good citizens can
be directed, without having resort to semi
vigilance committees or questionable agita-
tion. The democrats of the State, who have
evinceda sincere desire to denounce and punish
Official dishonesty, can do much In the next
Legislature towards securing the beneficial
results foreshadowed in their resolutions; for
1t will be dangerous work next winter 10 at
tempt to buy up republican votes to again do
the bidding of Tammany. We may, there
fore, hope that the seeds sown by the Roches-
ter Convention will bring forth good fruit in
due season, even if the candidates it may
put in nomination should be dragged down by
the weight Of the corruptions aud squabbles
at this end Of the State.
The Conventionists, of course, indulge in the
usual amount Of invective against republican
rule, and, as there is ample ammunition for a
sharp fire into federal corruption, their resolu-
tions in that direction are sharp and effective.
The platform win receive moro attention here
after; its general character Is good, and II the
candidates put in nomination are free from
faint, and recognized opponents of official cor
ruption, they may yet win race which has
latterly seemed hopeless. .,-t.....

GENERAL BUTLER AND THE PaoHIBI-
T1oNrsTs General Butler has written letter
to the prohibitionists Of Massachusetts,, In
which he says he must work for all reforms in
side the republican party; but iuasmuch as the
late Republican Convention entirely ignored
the temperance question he suggests that 1t is
the duty of every man in favor Of prohbitory
law to nominate and support an independent
candidate. This is one way Of whipping the
devil around the stump, and not be accused Of
boiling the regular nomination. But Butler is
ready for a fight at any time, and now that
Wendell Phillips, the labor reformers, the pro
hibitionists and other outside as well as inside
political organizations are ''down on him." he
Is, no doubt, ready to have tilt with any one
who shall tread upon his coat tail. The world
could scarcely move without Ben Butler had a
hand in each diurnal revolution.

The Kaiser, tho Papacy and tho Jesnits.
The Emperor William of Germany, having
settled the conditions Of the relations Of his
subjects and countrymen towards France, and
peacefully sheathed his sword of triumph In
Berlin, is about to bs called on to arbitrate
the question Of religion-a task still more Diff
cult and perhaps more dangerous, than the
first. German churchmen arc In congress in
Darmstadt. They are of the Protestant per-
suasion, and men who appear to believe that
the spirit of Martin Luther remains unquiet in
the land, his Episcopal principle not having
been fully vindicated. These modern reformers
are about to run tilt against Papal infalli-
bility and the Jesuits. They call on the
Emperors government to ''oppose" the
first and to ''prohibit" the second within
the land. 1t is not very likely that
the ruler Of the great German empire
cares fig for infallblity, other than the infal-
libility which follows the military efforts of
national army. His Majesty has some millions
Of Roman Catholic subjects and he will proba-
bly, permit them 10 settle with the Jesuits as
they think best. As to ''the sovereignty Of the
State and the liberties of the people," Kaiser
William is just the man to look after both care
fully. The Jesuits are to be ''kept moving"
Notwithstanding. The reverend gentlemen be-
long to a moving and migratory order. Italy
has been just ''after" them, or their property;
Spain has had tussle with them; the Ger
mans distrust them; Mexico has ''plucked"
them; Central America blames them for most
Of the political troubles of the States, and the
Cuban patriots regard them with suspicion.
The disciples of Loyola have difficult mis-
sion-one which affords small hope of abiding
results or even an abiding place in this world.

The Charges Aaainst Mayer Han.
Tho attsmpt to make political drama out
Of the city reform movement received very
little encouragement from the proceedings at
the Yorkville Police Court yesterday. Mayor
Hall, who had been informed of the charge
made against him, attended in person, waived
an examination, and rendered bail to appear at
any time to answer to the accusations before
jury. The counsel for the persons making the
complaint declined to ask any ball. being salts
fed with the Mayors personal recognizance,
and after some demonstrations on the part OF
the people assembled inside and outside the
Court the farce ended. The proceedings
taken by the Committee of Seventy were
wholly unnecessary, and were only designed
to keep up the excitement Of the city troubles
for political purposes The complainants
could have gone directly before the Grand
Jury with their case il they had possessed any
evidence to warrant criminal prosecution
but the police court episode was needed for
effect. The citizens Of New York will soon
grow tired Of such claptrap. They are as
eager as ever for municipal reform, and are
resolved to accomplish 1t and to rid the city
government of all who have been unfaithful
to or neglectful Of their trusts az soon as they
get the legal opportunity to do so. If offences
that can warrant an indictment can be proved
against any public officer he should be brought
before the Court at once, SO that he may be
reached and disposed Of as speedily as pos
sible in the manner provided by law; but the
people are sick Of seeing an honest reform
movement made use of to forward the schemes
Of few political ragamufins and newspaper
Bohemians.

System Of International Weas ier Reports.
The popular interest and confidence in our
Weather Bureau continues to increase. At q
recent meeting OF the Memphis Agrioul-
tural and Mechanical Society movement was
set on foot for internationaliEing our weather
and storm signal system. The object Of the
movers in this enterprise, who quote the con-
ference which met at Brussels in 1853 Gas
recommending universal and systematic
plan of observations), is to utilize weather
reports from all parts of the world for agri-
cultural purposes, and thus obtain the most
accurate and useful forecasts of crops and all
statistics needed by farmers and merchants.
The idea is good one If practicable, but
not q new suggestion. The HERALD some
time ago pointed out how the present informa-
ton daily issued from the Signal Office may
be used by farmers and horticulturists and
the Chief Signal Officer issued circular on
this subject some months ago. This officer
has already taken steps to unite the West
India reports with ours, just as those Of
Canada have been united for some time; be
has also stated his purpose, as far and as fast
as ocean cables are laid, to employ them for
weather kilograms whenever the information
they can bring will be practically useful.
When the proposed Pacific cable is completed
the intelligence from the Sandwich Islands
will be Of great value. The Importance Of
information from all parts of the atmosphere
cannot be exaggerated, IL we regard the great
aerial ocean as we regard the aqueous ocean,
one mass, all Of whose parts move together,
and, although separated, united,
Distinct as the billows, yet one az the sea.
