They are going to make clean sweep Of our
present city government in all Its departments
public works, parks, streets, health, quaran-
tine, police, FIRE and all other departments and
bureaus. In this reconstruction, too, as we
understand, salaries will be limited, sinecures
and perquisites will be cut of, contracts will
be rigidly tied up and monthly reports Of
receipts, expenditures and balances will be
required and published from every depart
ment; and that BY these reforms millions Of

A HINT FROM THE CALENDAR OF SAINTS
Yesterday was the anniversary Of st. Martins
day. There are two Saints Martin. One was,
when in the body, the famous Bishop Of Tours.
The other 81. Martina bishop in spain-was
writer Of vast erudition. The title Of one Of
bis works was '.De Formula Honeste Vita !"
or, literally, "The Plan OF an Honest Life. I"
The saint published IL In the year 563, but, II
carefully translated, IL would make an excel
lent manual for the use Of public servants
to- day.

THE ATTEMPTED DESTRUCTION OF CHArTA-
NooeA by fire will remind US vividly that the
desperadoes who escaped Sheridan's troopers
during the Chicago fire have hopeful remem-
brance Of the rich ventures In booty which
that great disaster afforded them. There is
probably no doubt that the fire In Chattanooga
was the work of incendiaries melted to the
desperate act by the successful field dis
covered to them in Chicago and as they seem
bold enough to try their games In that direc-
ton it will be wise for all the cities of the
Union to look out for such characters and
such attempts at present. There is hardly
closely built city in the United States which
would not offer them as promising conhagra-
ton as that Of Chicago, with the great mass
Of combustible matter that goes greatly to
make up all our building material aud the
high breezes Of November blowing.

Wabash is about sailing for Europe with
General Sherman and Lieutenant Frederick

extensive tour Of inspection Of the fortresses,
late battle fields and military systems Of the
great Powers Of the European Continent.
Why could not this reception and this depart

SECRETARY BELKNAP, in reply to Q news

become of the army during General Sherman's
absence, said he thought the newspaper men

Which was very neat in the Secretary; but we

QUEEN vIoToRIA's HEALTH.-The health of
the Queen of Great Britain has, It seems, con-
siderably improved within the last few weeks.
For the present, in consequence, all talk of o
regency has ceased. For little time longer
the British people win have to submit to the
Inconvenience of monarchy. The improve
ment which has taken place in the health Of
Her Majesty must be great disappointment
to Mr.. Bradlaugh, who expected SO soon to
sit 10 pride in the halls Of Buckingham Palace.
Mr.. Bradlaugh must not be discouraged.
There is good time coming.

FUTURE DEMOCRATIC LEADERs.-The AL
bany Journal (republcan organ), referring to
the probability of Seymour, Tilden, Church
and Herman returning to the leadership of the
democratic party, thinks the trouble is not
that they have outlived the period of activity
and usefulness, but that ''they have outlived
that period in the career Of the democratic
party which invites and accepts such leader
ship as that to which they arc habituated."
The Journal AYERS that the democratic party
since that time has become 80 utterly de-
moralized and debauched" by the lavish use
of money that the machine can never % again
run successfully upon an economical plan.
But is not this the same with the republican
party? The cohesive power Of public
plunder" has kept that party In power In the
nation during the past ten years as the same
means have kept the democratic party in
power in this State for the past three or four
years. As to future democratic leaders, they
are to be called, like Glendower's spirits,
s'from the vasty deep;" but will they come
when they are called?

Naturally enough, the Pope and his immedi-
ate advisers are Indignant. From Paris va
learn that the Papal Nuncio bis been closeted
with the Count de Remusat, the. French
Minister for Foreign Affairs. The Paris Con-
stjtutjonnsg has it that s'the pair discussed q
forthcoming protest of the Pope, in which the
Holy Father will declare himself the sole
King Of Rome, and will announce his detsr-
mination to hold no official intercourse with
any foreign representatives serving at the
Court or near the person Of King Victor EN-
manuel" Another protestl How many pao
tests and allocutions and encyclcals have We
had, all bearing more or less on this same sub
jects Many good friends of The Pope are Of The
opinion that he protests overmuch. Manifest
destiny is more potent than Papal infs.llibility.
The latest cable news last night brings
Paris rumor of q coming departure Of His
Holiness from Rome. A French metropolitan
journal asserts distinctly that the PontiR had
notified President Theirs OF his intention ID
establish residence in France, and that
Theirs, finding bis efforts to dissuade him
from such purpose /inenectual. had placed

we believe 1t has-the combinations we have
pointed out must have formed the basis Of the
Conference at Gastsin for it is not probable
that Prussia would risk . conflict single
handed with Russia while exposed to the
danger of being attacked by France; an d it
Is still less likely that Austria would engage in
the enterprise without strong inducements
and the prospect OF material advantage. The
Czech movement and the vital necessity Of
free access to the sea would be powerful
motives in swaying the action Of the Austrian
Cabinet; for the possession Of the Principalities
would restore the Austrian monarchy to its
Importance as leading European Power and
open up the way for the restoration Of the
Eastern empire under the Hapsburg crown.
Thus we see the dreams of universal peace
and brotherhood which was to result from. the
establishment of the German empire dissi-
pated, and the rule of the sword becoming
more potent than ever. But there is hope that
the gathering of men of the same race under
one government may in the end tend to the
spread Of liberty; and IL we may not hope for
the millennium, at least the causes of conflict
will be lessened when the organization Of gov
ernmeut is based on the requirements Of race
rather than on the arbitrary limits which are
but too often the result Of brute force. If
Germany, by restoring autonomy to Poland,
gives practical proof of her sincere attach
ment to the theory Of unity Of race which she
has advanced on her own behalf, then indeed
fho ciuil;x al World will havo cauco IN roioico
in her victory, and she will have given the
noblest proof of virtue-the respect of power
for the rights of others. But whatever r6le
she reserves to herself, there can be little
doubt that the thunder Of her guns will soon
be heard again on the battle field in strug-
gle before whose terrible proportions the con-
ficts Of the last war will appear Insignificant,
and whose results will completely change the
political division Of Europe.

The Department Of Parks-HOrace Greeley
for the New Comnissionsrs
1t is very important that the Department of
Public Parks should be reorganized without
delay The work under its control is of too
important character to be neglected or car
ried on at haphazard, as the recent closing Of
the Macomb's Dam bridge viii testify.
The President and Treasurer of
the department have both resigned,
and another of the Commissioners is now dis
charging the duties Of Comptroller position
which must occupy all Of his time. If the
recent election had not effectuaIly destroyed
former political organizations there would
still be no occasion to consider party in the
appointment of new Commissioners, and
Mayor Hall, in filing the vacancies should
study only the honesty and competency
Of the persons he selects. He can
not therefore, do better than to tender
the Office from which Mr.. Sweeuy retires to
Horace Greeley. Mr.. Greeley would make an
excellent Park Commissioner. He knows the
city thoroughly; has broad, intelligent views
Of the importance of the great plan Of develop
ment and Improvement initiated by the pre-
sent Board, and is scrupulously honest. His
appointment would be popular one, and
would do much to re-establish confidence in
the city government. What says Mayor
Hall2 Will he give the citizens Of New York
an honest, competent and popular Park Com
missioner in the person of Horace Greeley?

the Danube would give. The interests OF
South German commerce also demand that
this important outlet should be In keeping
Of friendly Power. Prussia would, on the
other hand, seek compensation for the loss Of
Posen by extending her boundaries on the
west to the German Ocean, swallowing up Hol-
land and perhaps Belgium territories, which
German statesmen pretend to be necessary to
the full development Of German commerce.
The scheme Of remodelling the map Of Europe
Is Titanic; but in view OF what Bismarck and
Moltke have already accomplished, II would
be rash TO pronounce 1t impossible. One
thing is certain-that the stability Of the new
German empire depends upon the crushing Of
Russia before France can recuperate and
most Of the European nations share the Ger
man distrust of Russian ambitious pro-
jects. The interposition Of the Austrian
empire 40 barrier TO the further
advance Of Russia southwark would prob
ably be accepted by the rest Of Europe a.

tion. Statesmen might then sleep without
fear OF swaking TO learn that the Muscovite
had possessed himself Of the Golden Horn.
England would certainly object to the an
nexation Of Holland and Belgium; but hel
protests would be powerless In case Of the de-
| feat OF France and Russia. If the German
