There is not a city in the country half as
old as New-York which cannot present more
picturesque streets and more beautiful and
substantial buildings than this metropolis. If
il were not for Broadway there would not be
single avenue worth architectural examina-
tion and in this, the most pretentious and ex-
tensiveSstreet in America, there are few build
ings notable for any other feature than undue
and ambitious proportions. Built OF white
marble, which discolOrs brown stone which
chips and fades or iron, whose coat of paint
needs constant renewal, they repel by their
dingy appearance and nondescript architec-
ture. From the Battery to Union-square, in all
the business part of this great and busy thor
Oughfare, there is but one genuine architcc-
tural beauty-the new granite structure of the
German American Bank, on the corner of
Cedar-St.
All these architectural dcfOrmitics are patent
to the eyes of any careful observer But it is
not known to superficial lookers-on that with
the exception of brick and granite, the build
ing materials in general use in NewYork are
condemned by all experienced and educated
architects. The marble from Westchester
auarries turns black or brown when exposed
to the air, and is not more durable than the
brown stone used for the facing and trim
ming of brick buildings, which decays and
crumbles, according to the calculation of
the architects, in from fifteen to twenty
years. Iron is preserved from rust and
consequent decay by frequent applications
of thick coats of paint, but this material is
susceptible to the influence of heat and little
fires frequently damage these freprOof iron
buildings beyond repair. The great fault of
this material, however, is that its cheap use has
demoralized architectural art and led to the
erection of numerous cheap, dsprOpOrtiOned,
tOp-heavy" buildings, lacking every beauty.
An article which we publish on another page
shows to what excuses we have gone in this
direction, and reveals what city of shOddy
architecture we have built on Manhattan.
All this is the fault of bad taste, undue
haste to be rich in attractive looking, not dur
able, comfortable buildings, the rapid growth
of the city, and chiefly the absence of any
sensible law regulating buildings. We have
an act which has two glarinl faults,-it is not
stringent and comprehensive enough, and it is
never enforced. The Inspectors of Buildings,
as the Bureau is at present organized, are as
worthless as the law which they declare to be
inoperative. Weak as the law is, its re-
ouirements are evaded every day by
misetly builders who have 10 cOnsciences or
consideration for the public safety, and no
foresight for their own interests. What is
wanted is new and stringent law, and honest
and capable inspectors to enforce it.

A favored correspondent of The World, who
boasts of "mOre than thirty years. expert
ence as a merchant, says to the Editor of The
TRIBUNE,
"You are the poorest merchant In the world In fact,
you idea mercantile affairs; and yet you
pride yourself on being adept in commerce"
- The gentleman is surely mistaken. We
have several ideas "about mercantile affairs; y
and one of them imports that bankrupt
trader is presumptivelyI an unsafe teacher
of Political Economy. What il Adderseys
opinion on this point
The Editor of THE TRIBUNE has been en-
gagged ill a business quite extensive for one OF
his means for the last thirty-eight years. In
the course of that experience, he has incurred
pecuniary obligations amounting in the aggre-
gate to many millions of dollars. To the best
of his recollection, he has paid all his own
notes at maturity and all those Of other men
for which he had rendered himself liable by

Well merited and well delivered was the re-
bike with which the five released Fenians
who arrived by the Cuba met the obtrusive
tender of hospitality extended them by the half
dozen or more rival Societies of Irishmen.
They have declined to receive public recep-
ton at the hands of any deputatiOn until their
fellow exiles arrive. The Tammany leader an
nounced last night, however, that the recep-
ton would take place to-day, and he doubt
less trusts to influence the exiles into aban-
doning the very sensible and dignified position
they have taken, and yielding themselves to
public exhibition as captives of Tammany.
We imagine, however, that they are not to be
caught by any such shallow political trick as
this of young Mr.. Tweed.

The German Correspondent, the semi-ofiicial
paper of Berlin formerly called the North
German Correspondent, makes the following
statement:
Berlin correspondent Of The Ne York Times reports
a conversation he pretends to have had with queen
Augusta of Prussia In the of which Her Majesty
is represented as having made some observations when
had afforded the Emperor Napoleon qualification. We
have learned authentic that no Interview
ever took place between correspondent and Queen
Augusta who does not receive gentlemen or t press tO
discuss politics with them. The conversation appears 10
have been invented for the purpose Of giving publicity To
certain views which, without such expedient,
would not have attracted public attention readily
was desired"
1t is only just to add however, that we have
never known The Times to be guilty of fabr-
eating correspondence; and whatever may be
the explanation of this case, we do not ques
ton that the letter (Which was transmitted by
cable) was accepted by the editor in perfect
good faith.

Unfortunately for his legal brethren, Judge
McCunn found no occasion, during his brief
military career, to display his bellgerency be-
fore the Rebel foe, for he loses no opportunity
to brave and beard them on the bench. A
year or more ago his anger waxed greatly
against his brother Sutherland for reviewing a
writ of hdbeas corpus in Bishop agt. Bishop,
and he threatened to put him in Ludlow-st.
iail if he interfered again with his judgment.
He now has designs on the liberties of Judge
Blatchford, Sheriff Brennan, and Gen. O'Neil,
for some fanced ofiense against his legal
dignity. But he will, doubtless, pocket his
wrath

The strongest opposition to the repeal of the
Income Tax has heretofore proceeded from the
Senate, in which Mr.. Sherman by persistent
effort secured the continuance of the law
against all right and common sense. But the
Senate has resolved so positively TO devote
Tuesday to the special consideration of the
act repeating it that we are encouraged to be-
heve that late revelations of the injustice and
absurdity of the levy as a source of revenue
have had their proper effect Oh the sages OF
that Chamber. We hope to hear of the be-
ginning of the end of the obnoxious measure
on Tuesday next.

The House yesterday discussed at length and
finally passed a bill providing "a Territorial
Government for the District of Columbia.
The principal officers are to he appointed by
the President, not elected by the people of the
District. This is a variation from the repre-
sentative principle which obtains in our Gov
eminent, but some may hold it justified by the
peculiar character of the resident population
of Washington City, the chief proportion being
Government employees. The Senate is likely
to give the bill more thorough examination than
it had in the House; but this will do it no
harm

Endorsement, within few DAYS ai'er""ru'
How is it with the Parseef
These matters are wholly outside the pare
of legitimate discussion but we must 90 "hcro
dragged. The Parsee says:
"Make salt free OF duty. and the pes' o'' "'''',
salt will never be higher In Ncw-fork IMAM - w -
gold for SO pounds 1t is now DecVe' from ~ W 70
cents currency or in average, 40 cents gold.
II there were no duty on foreignsa the price in New
yot ou,d never be above 10 IS per cent over the
cost and freight in foreign lands"
1t was not THE TRIBUNE, but Special
Commissioner David A. Wells who compiled
tbe table of prices of Salt under various Ia
riffs that so thoroughly refutes the above as
sumptions If the Parsce wants to hght the
Special Commissioner, so be it; but he snail
not do it under the guise of dispute with us.
THE TRIBUNE has simply proved, by alum
dant and incontestablc evidence, that Syracuse
Rock Salt is purer, and preserves Meat, FISH ana
Butter, rather better, than Turks Island Kock
Salt does. The World asserts that the turks
Island Salt nevertheless sells in this market
for 10 cents per (measureD bushel more than
tbe superior Ncw-York Salt. We submit that
these facts, put together, make out strong
claim for Protection to homemade Salt.
As to price, the importers and the boilers
alike charge all they can get. III they can sell
at a large profit, they do; if they can only
make a small profit, they take that; II Obliged
to submit to a loss, they manage to pocket it.
They are as like as "Bill Nye" and "the
"IIeathcn Chnee;r and whoever imagines they
are not, must have an imperfect knowledge OF

PROSECETE TILE CONTEST!

The HcrdtdS Albany correspondent cAutihS-
ly writes that
"Mr. Murphy the Chairman on Privileges and Eec
tons which has the of Twomby in hand, has pre-
pared rather expensive dose OF medicine for the con-
testan OF Mr. Careys seat should he not win his case,
as Of course he R Heretofore in matters OF con
tested seats the law paid the legal expenses OF the CON
testan whether he gained his cause or not MI Murphy
has showed in a bill which throws the expense OF con-
test on the contestant when nc does not gain his point
Mr. Tcon6y ough 10 take de hnt before he increases has
bill any Jiirther."
- The writer of the above, AZ well as the
Mr. Murphy whom he celebrates, is perfectly
aware that Mr.. TwOmbly is the Assemblyman
elect from the With district of our City-that
his majority was II votes, as the columns OF
all our City journals attest-and that he was
counted out for the one sole reason that 1t
was necessary to give his seat to his Demo-
cratic competitor in order to make Demo-
cratic majority in the House. All these are
facts of the most glaring nOtOriety, which no
one has the hardhoOd to dispute.
We barely know Mr.. Twombly. and do not
know why he has not seemed to prosecute
his contest with adequate promptness and
vigor. His case should have been carefully
prepared and his proofs of primd tdc'e right
to the seat ready for submission when the As
sembly met. Neither he nor his counsel should
since have been absent from Albany at any
hour when the Assembly was in session. But
this contest is not his personal matter, and, if
he needs pccuniary or other aid i'll prosecuting
it, it should be promptly afforded, not as
favor to him, but in the interest OF public
Justice. We will give 800 toward his ex-
penses, if he will accept it, and Others are
doubtless ready to put up all he needs in half
an hour. Mr.. Twombly happens to stand in
the breach; but the efficacy of elections is at
stake. Every mans right to a fair ballot, an
honest count, and a true return, stands or falls
with his claim. VIII he permit his fellow-citi-
zens to know what they may do 70 vindicate
their rights assailed through hint
