THE RADICAL QUARREL.
Chairman Cornell, Of the state republi-
can committee, is charged by the Tribune,
to-day, with having uttered six faisehoods
| in his letter upon the re-organ-
ization OF the republican party
| OF this city; and declares that
| In his Saturdays communication he has
repeated his former Misrepresentation.

and are now doing, serious injury to tho
republican party.
THE TiMMASY FRAUDS.
Public attention is again directed TO the
ertortionate charges of the sheriff. There
have been already paid TO the sheriff for
the first half Of the year 1871, by order of
the board Of supervisors, the sum of ;S3,-
32Gjl. 1t is alleged that according to the
sheriii's bills, the amount of whose fees is
limited, that for committing prisoners is
S40,39G. At the rate allowed by law this
gives him credit for having Imprisoned
inside of six months, 50, 792 people, and it
is calculated that at this rate, by
Christmas allowing for no moral
improvement in the people or the sheriff.
office, one-tenth Of the gross population Of
New York will have suffered in either the
tombs or Ludlow street Jail.
The deputy sheriiis are said to be pro.
testing against the imposition, and say
that this monopoly of fees by the sheriff
leaves them bare substance. One Of
the rumors in relation to sheriff Brennan
is that he is to be sacrificed by the Tam
many ring, and be displaced AT the next
election. There is a strong feeling Of op-
position shown him in his own ward BY
| politicians who control things there.
1t is also said that Brennan is preparing
TO sever his connection with the ring,
and aid the movement commenced agains,
il, on account principally, Of the trouble
to which he has recently been subjected
By the action Of the local politicians.
The Tribune alleges that the public
school system is tainted with the frauds
and abuses of the Tammany ring. 1t
says that the school department has been
demoralizcd-all but ruined by the cor
rupting influences of those who control
public affairs. Notable features of the
system as il exists are said TO be the
wasting Of money, discouragement Of at
tendance by scholars, creeping into the
schools of q sectarian spirit, and awarding
contracts for book supplies to party favor
ties. 1t is understood that application
will soon be made to Judge Barnard for
compelling the production of the books
containing the city and county accounts
with a view to getting information touch.
