Tho Comptrellor Of New Yerk-Appoint-
mont Of Andrew III. Green.

Tho Comptroller Of New Yerk-Appoint-
mont Of Andrew III. Green.
The reformers have rid themselves of
Richard B. Connolly, who has at last resigned
the ofdce, from the active duties Of which he
has been for some time deposed, and the
Mayor has appointed Andrew II. Green
Comptroller Of the city. In this selection the
Mayor has evinced his readiness to thoroughly
reform the municipal government and to study
in his new appointments the wishes of tho
supporters Of tho reform movement. Tho
termination Of the disorganization that has
recently existed in the Financial Department
Is good thing for the city. Hitherto Mr..
Green has held power only on an uncertain ten
ure, and the resignation Of Connolly has been
feared by the reformers, lest the Mayor, who
has absolute authority In the matter, should
have taken advantage Of 1t to supplant the Act
ing Comptroller. These apprehensions appear
to have been groundless. Connolly has
resigned, as no ought to have done long ago,
and the Mayor has at once conferred tho
important onice upon Mr.. Green. This pro-
motion will strengthen the hands Of the latter
gentleman, and he will now be enabled to set
to work in earnest to rescue the city finances
from their present embarrassed condition. We
are already assured against any further misap-
plication Of the public funds, and now 1t Is to
be hoped that we shall hear no more Of neces-
sary works suspended and Of clerks and
laborers unpaid in consequence of an empty
treasury.
Mayor Hall should now complete the good
work he has commenced by the appointment
Of Mcclellan or Stewart as Commissioner Of
Public Works, and by reorganizing the De-
partment of Public Parks. Judge Hilton and
Peter B. Sweeny insist on resigning. Tom
Fields will no doubt see the discretion Of re-
tiring from the Board. Comptroller Green
cannot Of course, serve any longer on the
Commission, nrst because his present duties
will occupy all his time, and next, because
the spirit Of the reform movement is in opposi-
tion to double ofice-holding. Mr.. Dillon has,
we believe, seldom II ever acted with
the Board, and does not desire to
retain the position of Commissioner.
Here, then, is an opportunity to entirely reor-
ganize the Park Department, which may be
well done by the appointment Of Horace
Greeley, Henry G. Stebbins, James M. Brown
and citizens Of that stamp on the Commission.
With such an administration secured the work
Of municipal reform will be already practically
accomplished, and the Legislature and the
people can devote their attention solely to the
task Of framing such q charter as will secure
to MS strong, responsible and honest govern
ment in the future.

are rapidly becoming fascinated with the
Missouri fusion policy Of Mr.. Schurs. The
Freemans Journal Of Cooperstown, N. Y,
chants this new democratic departure with
refreshing enthusiasm. II says that sit Is
humiliating statement to make, but one de-
manded by truth and fairness" the
democratic party as q national organization is
to-day In hopeless minority in the country"
This ID true, according to. the results Of this
years State elections, including New York,
the democratic citadel and base Of operations.
What then, is to be done2 General Grant says
our rural contemporary, ''has proved himself
far better politician than Presidents" that s'tho
next republican convention win be packed
with his creatures" and that he will be
renominated against oil remonstrances from
his party. What, theni Why, then, says
our Cooperstown philosopher, let the damo-
cratic party abandon its National Convention,
unite with the anti Grant republicans, and
'let Us defeat Grant with any good and able
statesman available for that purpose, and
break down this weak and corropt admins
tration." Il
This means the disbandlng Of the democracy
~ national party and the fusion of its forces
upon Sumner, Trumbull, Gratz Brown, Gen.
eral Butler or Greeley, II either of these men
should be chosen ss the opposition republican
candidate; and they all are candidates for tho
honor. The Richmond Enquirer goes for
su@aer, in yisE II the Southern black y9se
but Butler or Greeley for this purpose would
answer perhaps as well. But how would the
masses Of the Northern democracy regard
such q candidates Ten to one the majority
would drop it and 60 for General Grant. At
all events, at this crisis the suspension of the
democratic party as . national organization
means Its dissolution and dispersion, and that
there will be little or no organized opposition
against General Grants reelection. We have
oontended over and over again that the demo-
cratic party has run Its career, with its dead
issues and dead men, and that new party
organization must follow. But this new
organization can do nothing In 1872. We
expect then, that General Grant next fall,
like Monroe in 1920, with the dissolution of
the old anti-war party Of his day, will be over
whelmingly reelected, and that in 1876, as in
1924, we shall have beautiful scrub race
for the succession, and that out of it will fol-
low new organization Of parties. Meantime,
there never was clearer case in advance than
the reelection Of General Grant.

Advices from inside Paris to the Sd have
been received. General Trochu, on the 3ist
of December, issued q proclamation 10 the
citizens OF Paris, in which he says:
Efforts are making to destroy the union ana
confidence TO which Paris owes her proioaSea S
defence. Political capital is being made OF dis
appointments caused solely by the severity OF
the weather. The army has, indeed, been
sorely tried, and requires a brief rest, which
the enemy seeks to prevent by most violent
bombardment. But that army is preparing 10
act and will do It's duty. There are no dissen-
sions among the members Of the government,
who are perfectly united in the face OF the
country's perils, and in hope OF her dellve-
rance. The report Of the generals command
ING the Notifications shows that slight damage
has been done to the suburban villages by the
bombariment, and only a few men have been
