JOHANNES TAURUS.
The London Press on the Corruption Of
TammanY.
Downfall Of the Republic Predicted BY the
Telegraph"

NEW YOER, September 19.-The
London 7ele0rdDb Of the 9Th says, ed
| itoriaIly, in regard to the alleged
frauds In the New York city govern
ment: "We have been accustomed
to impute the greatest political and
social corruptiOns of Europe TO the
one-man rule governments OF Russia
and France, but neither Of these
old-World despOtisms can hold
candle as regards corruption
and dishonesty to the brawny young
republican giant across the
water. The strength Of Tam
many Hall and its champions
is so great that the chances of
their being brought to book and pun
ishment is extremely probiematical.
But the whole of municipal corruption
in America is directly traceable to the
one deep-seated ulcer that is
eating out the heart of the Ameri-
can body politic-that the fathers
of the constitution, as it is the custom
for our kinsmen to dub Washington,
Jefferson. Alexander Hamilton, and
their c0temporaries, were well aware
that if once the judiciary of the United
States became elective, or In
other words, corrupt, the es-
tsblishment of republican institu-
tious upon that noble continent
would prove a hideOus failure. The
terrible dishonesty Of American
municipalities could never exist If
Tammany Hall, the Erie swindle, las
Mr.. Adams terms it) and other rings,
had not judges in their pay.
The formidable and rapid growth
of the municipal indebtedness
OF New York will probably
force the tax payers into some
steps for their own protection. Mean
while, speaking in spirit Of good
will, we adjure them to cleanse the
ermine Of their judges, and thus get
rid OF the corruption, which, unless
speedily checked, will prove the ruin
Of the common wealth."
