T1MMhNY on TIE DEFENSIVE.

Nobody will be surprised to learn that the
suit of the People against the Tammany KING
has so far brought forth no result 1t was not
expected that the lccches who have fastened
themselves upon the City Treasury would let
90 their hold at once; the laws delay has
been sufficient to cover the crimes of greater
offenders than these ere now. and 1t was
natural to expect that all manner of evasions and
legal subtctics would be intcrposed between
tho defendants and their indignant masters
the people. The diatory system of tactics has
beer faithfully carried out. Mr.. TweeTs cOun-
sci appeared with his little jokes; the corpora
ton counsel showed his readiness to earn his
right to wear the Tammany collar; and from all
the defendants came cool denial of everything.
The Mayor is not a stockholder in the various
jObbing establishments that grow rich on civic
plunder; neither is Mr. Tweed, nor Mr.. Con-
molly; at least, so say Messrs. Hall, Tweed,
and Connolly, and so say the partners in
these prosperous firms. To be sure
it is admitted that they once had interests, as
now averred but these honest gentlemen dis
posed of them as soon as they were put in
their present places under the new City Charter.
The defendants, in short, are, according to
their own showing, all honorable men, who are
quite above making dishonest penny out OF
the City, They wipe their mouths and say,
"We have done no HARM"
We must have patience and hope. Whatever
is done by the conspiratOrs now can only
shield them temporarily; the whole logic of
the case and the facts is against them. They
are paltering with destiny and must sooner or
later submit; it is not in the nature of things
that these men, who are covering up their
tracks as ef1cctualy as possible, and hiding
their plunder where it may be considered safe
from receivers and suits at law, should fail to
employ every means to avert the catas-
trOphc which threatens them. The people
occupy the humiliating position of the
master beseeching the unfaithful servants
to tell what they have done with their plunder,
and all the jugglery of legal forms, dilatory
motions, and irrelevant answers means nothing
more than-"Wc will not tell" We now rely
upon the courts to compel the conspirators to
confess their misdeeds. Is the law, arc the
courts, strong enough3 Or shall we find the
slippery scrvitors of the City can elude their
indignant masters and escape with their i'll"
