elected and falsely counted out their rights
shall be secured TO them. This looks like
business, and with a republican two-thirds
vote secured in both branches of our new
Legislature we cannot doubt that the Boosting
remark Of Boss Mclaughlin" that tive elect
all our men" will soon, with the Boss him
self. be knocked in the head in Brooklyn. The
great lawyer of the people in our cause ofcity
reform, Mr.. Charles O'Conor, said substan-
TALLY, few days before our late glorious
election, That, with thoroughgoing reform
Legislature you can do everything, while
without it you can do little or nothing" The
Legislature elect has the power and the will
to do the work before it thoroughly, with or
without the aid Of the Governor, by legislation
and by impeachment and Brooklyn, though
failing in her duty in the election, will not
be overlooked in this legislative work of mu-
nicipal publication and reconstruction.
Let Mr.. Backhouse and his Committee of
Fifty work up their schedules of Brooklyn
Corporation spoils and plumber appropriated
by ''the Ring, and ure the vouchers; and
Aos sAo VV-oPOA"Uu8 OoAAhaiSsCO on A1AVSeAVh
Frauds carefully sift these alleged ballot stuff
ings, repeatings and false countings, whereby
men elected have been counted out and men
rejected by the people have been counted In,
and let these committees submit their COM
plants and their testimony to the Legislature,
and before the end Of the winter the honest
voters and taxpayers of Brooklyn may rejoice
over their beautiful city rescued from the
brink Of destruction. "As the old cock crows
the young one learns" and so the Brooklyn
Ring democracy have learned the wicked ways
of Tammany, and the city is disgraced and
its saints are scandalized thereby. But let
the honest men Of Brooklyn stand erect and
let her guilty public servants tremble. The
people of New York city and State have risen
in their strength and majesty, and we are in
the midst of glorious revolution; and Brook
Ign, though neglecting to fry her own fish in
the late election, will surely be released from
her sackcloth and ashes. General Grant has
been doing good thing for her in roofing
out her illicit whiskey dstilleries; but in root
ing out her ballot suffers and ring robbers a
greater work will surely be done for Brooklyn
this winter at Albany. Give thanks, oh ye
people, soon to be delivered from the Brooklyn
Ring, and forget not that Thanksgiving Day is
the 3Oth of November.

FRENCH DEMOCRACY AND TURKISH I'M
PERIALIsM. French republican govern
ment appears determined to limit the system
Of Imperialism In the Old World to the pre-
sent representatives of the existing royalties
until democracy becomes sufficiently powerful
to render the system of popular rule dinusive.
This fact is made patent by our special cable
telegram report from Constantinople, pub
lished to-day, In which we are assured that
the French Ambassador In the Turkish CAPT.
tai has protested to the Sultan against
His Majesty's 6rman according hereditary
sovereignty to the Bey Of Tuns. This diplo-
matte action betokens again the existence of q
full-blooded and almost ull-fedged democracy
in France. 1t shows forth the French people
talking to the most imperialistic throne, I'M
awed by fear Of death in ''sack" and then to
the Bosphorus as of old.

MORE REGISTRATIONS OF PUBLIC OFFICERS
Judge Hilton yesterday resigned his Office as
one Of the Commissioners of Public Parks-a
position in which he has labored diligently
and faithfully for the interests of the city.
The reason assigned is that the business of the
department is blocked for the want of funds,
which Deputy Comptroller Green neglects to
furnish, despite repeated acquisitions made
upon him. Mr.. Isaac Bell also sends to Mayor
Hall his resignation as Commissioner of the
Department of Education, stating that his
duties as Commissioner Of the Department
of Charities and Correction are sufficiently
arduous to occupy all his time and attention.

'JM" IRVING was indicted by the Grand
Jury yesterday for an alleged assault upon
Deputy United States Marshal Dowley, thus
taking the case out Of Judge Woodruffs hands,
before whom it was to have been heard yes
terday ON writ Of habeas corpus. 1t came
up regularly before him, however, and, Mr..
Irving having pleaded not guilty, and the
Deputy Marshal being reported as not very seri-
ously injured, he was released on giving ten
thousand dollars bail, Chamberlain Bradley
and Mr.. Forbes Holland qualifying in that
amount.

The CHICAGO GERMANS express themselves
disgusted at the niggardly gifts Of Emperor
William and the Crown Prince to the sufferers
by the great fire, and Indignantly fing them
back in their faces with . small dona-
ton of their own thereunto appended
for distribution TO the MANNED German
soldiers Of the Franco-Prusslan war. Look
ing a gift horse In the mouth is another
Chicago popularity; but In this case, consid-
erng that Chicago furnished pretty generous
sum to the German sick and wounded during
the war, and that one thousand thalers from
the Kaiser and five hundred from the Crown
Prince are all their returns for the same, We
don't doubt that they are righteous In their In
dignation.

The Trenton G0sette-republican organ
commenting upon the election of Joel Parker,
democratic candidate for Governor of New Jer-
sey, by such a large majority, while the State
went so heavily republican for members Of
the Legislature, expresses the opinion that
his astonishing success places 'sthat gentle
man at the very head and front of the demo-
cratic politicians Of the country as an available
Presidential candidate next year," and says it
would not be greatly surprised eff Mr.. Parker
should head the democratic national ticket next
year." This Is not bad suggestion; for as
the defeat of the democrats in Connecticut
laid out Governor English as candidate for
the democratic nomination, SO has their defeat
in Pennsylvania shelved Hancock, in Ohio
laid out Pendleton, in Indiana squelched
Hendricks, and in New York put quietus,
for the present at least, upon the Presi-
Dental aspirations of Governor Hoffman.
Besides, little Jersey has never enjoyed the
honor Of having hand in any Presidential
race, with the exception Of the time when
Frelinghuysen ran for Vice President on the
Henry Clay ticket, and therefore is entitled to
some consideration. She ought to be allowed
to set up candidate next year, If only to be
knocked down by General Grant, aud Gov
ernor Parker would make as good head pin as
any other man.

THE ALDERMANIo QUEsTIoN.-It appears
from the statements of1Mayor Hall, and of
such of the Aldermen as are willing to say
anything on the subject, that the old Board Of
Aldermen are determined to contest the right
Of the newly elected Board to the seats they
will claim as soon as the votes cast in the
recent election shall have been canvassed,
and that the Mayor will stand by the present
Board. The contest cannot, however, be pro-
longed much beyond the meeting of the next
State Legislature, which will promptly settle
all such matters and make an entire new de-
parture in our municipal affairs.

The Cundurango Hnmbng.

Our correspondence from Ecuador, South
America, published yesterday, throws good
deal of light on what may be now termed the
cundurango humbug. The writer travelled
over the region where the cundurango of diff
ferent varieties grows, and was particular in
his investigations in that part where specula-
tors were gathering the plant for expectation.
He found that the exaggerated accounts Of
wonderful cures Of cancer by this plant had
no foundation. There were doubtful reports
Of two or three cases of syphilis having been
cured years ago, but that the patients died
shortly after being cured. This cundurango
business has all the appearance Of being o
grand humbug and fraud, worked up by cum
ming spectators to make money. The parties
interested have, no doubt, adroitly deceived
the State Department at Washington, which
has given a sort of quasi endorsement to
the reported wonderful properties of cundu-
range. Before the government goes any fur
Their in advertising what we are inclined to
believe Is fraud it ought to ascertain from
competent men, chemists and physicians, who
could not be Influenced by the spectators, the
nature and properties of the plant, and if it
has any curative virtue. 1t is more incum-
bent on the government to do this, and to
prevent imposition and evils that might arise
from using cundurango, since it has been the
medium Of advertising the pretended curative
nature of the plant.

If the republicans had not carried two-thirda

voters and to hold sway over the pothouses.

EMINENT COUNSEL FOR THE Ku KLUx.-
The Baltimore american is advised that
Reverdy Johnson is to go to Columbia, s. c.,
to defend the Ku Klux prisoners to be tried
there at the November term Of the United
States Circuit Court. Mr.. Johnson Is .
gentleman Of eminent legal abilities aud pos
sesses profound knowledge of constitutional
law. In the conduct Of these Ku Klux cases
no better man could have been selected. This
is different matter from dining and hob

develop bis talents as an advocate and as an
exp under of the constitution.

Is Ireland Irreconcilable to Britains

A HERALD special cable telegram from
Dublin, dated yesterday, makes known
the fact that the Green Isle, from
the metropolis ''all round to the sea" was
in state of universal excitement, occa-
stoned by the jury acquittal Of a man named
Kelly, who had been indicted and tried on
charge Of having murdered a head constable
of police named Talbot. The occurrence took
place In Dublin in the month OF July, at which
time Talbot was killed and Constable Mullins
almost murdered in the street. Kelly was
arrested and held for the preparation Of
the crime against Talbot. The injured men,
both deceased and wounded, were accused by
tho people Of suborning informers to testify
falsely in the courts against persons charged
with political offences. Kelly, who was tried
by q special judicial commission in Dublin,
was escorted by military on his way to the
Court each day. He has now been acquitted.
The nation appears to have gone wild with
joy over the result. Does this jubilation spring
really from q love of justice-the people
knowing Kelly to be innocent-or Is it
prompted by that animus which has been
classed as urging to the wild justice Of re-
venge" in Ernp The exhibitions which took
place yesterday in Ireland must be demoraliz-
ing to the public mind, no matter whence their
source. They prompt reiteration of the
inquiry, Is Ireland irreconcilable TO Britain?

Brooklyn, our goodly city of Brooklyn,
day after the fair, is waking up from her leth-
argy. Plundered right and left by her rapa-
cious officials and cheated and outraged In 1a ar
elections, she has taken TO indignation mass
meetings, and there are hopes of her saliva
ton. There was q corrupt ''ring' of spoils-
men-a powerful, corrupt and desperate ring
but it is broken and scattered to the winds.
There was and there is shameless ring OF
corrupt spoilsmen across the East River,
known as the Brooklyn Ring, for 1t ''still
lives" Against the New York Ring Holy
Alliance was formed in the late election of the
solid and honest men Of both parties, repub-
licans and democrats and between these two
powerful forces, working together, the New
York, or Tammany Ring, was pulverized as
between the upper and the neither milestone.
In Brooklyn, on the other hand, the republic
cans had one ticket and the reform democrats
had another ticket and between these two
| armies, each fighting its own battle regardless
of the other, the compact army of the "Ring"
marched In and gained an easy victory. The
| figures of the Brooklyn election for Mayor tell
the story. In round numbers they may be
stated as follows -
For Powell ring candidate. $1,000
For Booth, republican. Observation-Disclosures. % 900
FOR Kalbnelsch, reform democrat. 10000
