all municipal ohaces from the LIST ol
February and either leave tho President
Of the new Board OF Aldermen to discharge
the duties Of Mayor until tho spring OF 1873
or give to that Board the appointment Of q
Mayor until the next charter election. If the
newly elected Aldermen select John Cochrane
as their President the city will, In the former
case, secure an acting Mayor who thoroughly
understands the whole machinery Of the New
York government whose honesty, in
tegrity and capacity win be admitted
by all, and whose intimate acquaint-
ance with our public men would enable
him to make excellent selections for the seve-
raj departments, should the appointing power
be left in his hands, The reformers could not
probably adopt a better programme, or one
that would give us more speedily or more
effectually sound reorganization of our muni-
cipal government. The work of cnacting
new charter, to take effect in 1878, could
then be proceeded with deliberately, and sufi-
cien+ time could be expended on it 10 insure
have rendered their verdict emphatica,ly
enough this month, aad would willingly be
spared the excitement and trouble OF an elec-
tion in the spring. They have signifed their
faith in the reform movement, and hence will
accept the action of The Legislature cheer
fully, and give their support to any municipal
government it may provide for us, so long as
the character Of the officers chosen to conduct it
is such as to warrant public confidence. John
Cochrane would make an efficient, honest and
popular Chief Magistrate, and there should be
no opposition to his selection as President Of
the new Board Of Aldermen in view of the
probable action Of the Legislature. The GER
tainty of the coming change in the city admin
istration does not, however, render 1t
to Gil the vacancies existing in the depart
ments with competent and acceptable officers.
With Greeley, Tilden and Stewart in the De-
partments Of Parks and Public WORKS the
reformation of the city government would be
already commenced, and under such Mayor
as John Cochraue no unnecessary changes
would be made. The people look
to the reform party for the regeneration
of the city, but they also expect Mayor Hall
to perform his duty faithfully so long as he
remains their chief executive officer. The
time has gone by for political strategy. What
we want now is reformed government, inde-
pendent of party, and the sooner the work is
commenced the better.

Tho Chief Jussice OF Ireland aud ~
Irish Editor.
The HERALD special telegram from Dublin
that Ireland is becoming really excited over
the consequences of the jury verdict which
acquitted the man Kelly of the charge Of muir
der of Head Constable Tallot. The Lord
Chief Justice Of the Court Of Queens Bench
partakes of the agitation. He has seen fit to
put aside the ermine and enter the lists for
criminal argument and recrimination with q
newspaper writer. The editor of q Dublin
journal has been arrested and sentenced to
imprisonment for some months in the common
Jail for the crime of libelling his Lordship in
connection with his remarks on the judicial
conduct of Kclly's trial during the period Of
that investigation. This appears to be very
poor business for the ''right trusty and
well-beloved cousin ard Counsellor" Of
the Queen Of England, as his Lordship
is styled officially Curran instructed for
mer Justice of Ireland as to the danger Of de-
scending from the bench in order to fight per-
sonal battles, for the reason that If the digni-
tary is defeated he may fad it difficult to hide
his disgrace by again mufll'ng himself in his
robe of Office Smolleit tells that when Rode
rick Random's man Strap threw of his coat
that he might enter into pugilistic encounter
in the streets of London and got we'll beaten
by his adversary he found that his coat had
been stolen by one Of the persons In the crowd,
leaving him sore in body and half naked. 1t
may be 80 again, even with His Lordship the
Chief Justice, for this man Pigott appears to
be fassy parsonage who delights in tho
troubles of agitation.
In the meantime the people of the South Of
Ireland remain jubilant over the popular ver-
dict 10 Kelly's case, 80 that the Green Island
home still remains divided house.

Cuba. The Spanards are becoming more
vindictive. Colonel Estrada, Of the insurgent

DISASTROUS FIRE IN GENEVA, SwITzER-
LAND.-ln HERALD special telegram report
by cable from London our correspondent in
the British capital announces that an extensive
and most seriously alarming fire broke out in
the city of Geneva, Switzerland, some time
yesterday morning, and ragged with most dis
astrous violence during the day. The flames
had not been subdued at the date Of our
latest despatch in the evening, so that the
fire fiend was having his wicked way amid
the ancient buildings and ,ntral hives of busy
industry in the old Swiss town almost as COM
pletely as it was enjoyed by the demon In the
granaries, warehouses and private residences
Of modern Chicago in America. Geneva is
endeared TO the world for its treasures
of art, science and manufacture, but more
particularly on account of its having shell
tered the great lights Of the Protestant
Reformation, Calvin and Cranmer, and
afforded a residence to John Knox. Other
men of great renown have had their birth
within its walls, so that people will receive
the news Of its destruction by fire, should such
a mournful event occur, with feelings of pain
and dismay.

ANTl-GRANT MOVEMENTS Fond du
Lac (Mo.) North,oestern Courier is in favor of
an alliance of democrats and liberal republic
cans for the specific object of defeating Gene
raj Grant. The Cincinnati Volksb,at, the St.
Louis Dispatch, the Sacramento Reporter, are
among our recent exchanges that endorse the
same policy, which is hardly that Of the pas
sive or no. nomination policy of the st. Louis
Republican. There may be considerable
change ia the views of these democratic expo
nents before the time for calling convention
or deciding upon making nomination arrives.
THE EVANSVILLE (Ohio) Courier thinks it a
remarkable coincidence that two such able
democratic papers as the Washington Patriot.
the organ of the Democratic Congressional
Committee, and the GAINESVILLE Signah the
organ Of the Muskingum County Ring, should
come out the same day in favor of the Spas

Tho Whaling Fleet Wrecks nnd Other
/. nfariuo Disasters.


We have complete reports Of the disas-
trous loss Of thirty-three whaling vessels in
the Arctic Ocean, accompanied by mar
rative Of the horrors which attended and fol-
lowed the wreck Of the American brig Shele-
hoff diring hurricane, when on voyage
from San Francisco for Callao, Peru. All
hands, crew and passengers, on board per-
ished, with the exception of the commander
Of the brir, Captain Hopkins. The names Of
the unfortunates are given by the writer.
The scenes which were Witnessed in the
Arctic Ocean during the ice and snow drift,
which attended, or caused, the disasters to
the whalers, were of an exceedingly exciting
character. Not many lives were lost, fortu-
nately, so far as is known at present The
commercial consequences Of this visitation to
the whalers will be very decided and depressing
to the interests of the many persons engaged
in the ventures. These events afford one more
sad proof of the fact that man, even with all his
skill and lusty energy, is very weak power
when he has to struggle with dread ocean, in
which "the Almighty's form glasses itself in
tempesss."

islators and officials are only too likely to in

tho Cholera Come.

The German steamer Franklin arrived In the
Lower Day yesterday from Stettin, Germany,
having put into Halifax on the roate for
supply Of coal. She has cholera on board,
forty-one deaths from that disease oc-
CURED during the voyage. The most
stringent restrictions of quarantine wcrs at
once brought to bear upon the unwelcome
visitor, and hopes are entertained that
the cool, frosty weather will modify it's con-
tagious character. Now that it is here, how
ever, we must relax no efforts at cleanliness
as to our streets and houses. Doctors disa-
gree as to its virulence in cold weather, and
the fact of it's sudden appearance npon the ves-
sci after she had been ten days at sea would tend
to confirm the opinion held by some ply sicians
that the cold weather does not affect the vru-
lence Of the contagion at all. But in addition
TO the new arrival the smallpox is on the in
crease here, and Judge Bosworth, of the
Board of Health, even intimates that that
Board is unable under present circumstances
to combat the disease with any success. We
must, therefore, be especially careful, and we
must urge upon our quarantine officials the
let not Perth Amboy aud the avaricc of some
of our shipping merchants step between us
and safety.
In the excitement Of watching for our royal
visitor, the Grand Duke, we had completely
forgotten this ghastly guest whom month or
two ago we were looking out for. Alexis
coming had chased away all the dismal appre-
pensions OF the cholera coming. We were
preparing to give our Russian guest joyful
reception, and to welcome him with banners
and bon6rcs and open arms, and it is most
dscomforting reflection that the other guest
whom We most dreaded, whom we are
disposed only to receive with strict quaran-
tine and closed doors, aud whose visit Is sc
likely to be attended with dcsolation and
mourning rather than with gladness and
rejoicing-that this dreary visitor has knocked
at our gayly decked doors first

THE FULTON FERRY ENoRoAoHMENr on the
Brooklyn city property in the erection of their
new ferry house was reported upoa by COM
mittee of the Brooklyn Common Council yes
terday. The report stated that the ferry
company wants to rent the property for mere
nominal sum, and had refused the proposition
of the Councilmen that the fare for foot pas :
sengers be reduced to one cent at all times
of day or night, in consideration Of permission
to retain the property. Thereupon the COM
mittee recommend that legal action be COM
menced against the company at once. The
report was laid on the table for two
weeks, aud will probably not be
heard Of again. But we would
urge it upon the Brooklyn authorities
to make an example and warning OF this
unruly corporation, not by compelling them to
take down their house, as that would occasion
great inconvenience to the people of that city,
but to make them pay good round sum for
the lease of the ground. They pay now, we
believe, one dollar to New York city for the
privilege Of running the ferry, out Of which
they make million or two yearly; and they
still have the impudence to insist upon mere
nominal rent for their latest encroachment.
Let Brooklyn make the ferry company pay a
handsome sum for their impudence in building
their house upon other peoples property.

in the municipal government through the
means of new charter or by amendments to
the present law. Several prominent officers
have already resigned their positions, and
the retirement Of Tweed Is only question Of
a few hours If Mayor Hall will read the lesson
Of the recent election Alright he may do much
to prepare the way for q non-partisan admins
tration by filing the existing vacancies with
good men without distinction of party.
Horace Greeley, with his practical good sense
and his sturdy honesty, would make an ex-
cellent Park Commissioner in place of
sweeny, while Judge Hilton's Office might be
well filed by Samuel J. Tiden, who has dis
tinguished himself in the cause of re-
form. The Department Of Public Works,
which has been SO grossly abused
by Tweed and his gangs, should be
placed by Mayor Hall at once in the hands Of
some practical and efficient man such as
Stewart, the well known builder. With such
appointments as these Mayor Hall would set
an example to the State Legislature that
might be useful TO the city, and would, more
over, prove his readiness to yield to the will
Of the people, SO plainly expressed at the
ballot box.
| The successful reformers will no doubt
effectuaIly perform the work for which they
have been chosen as soon after the meeting OF
the Legislature as practicable. 1t is proba-
BILE that they will at once take charge oi
