City-A Sharp Triangular Contest.
70 THE NEW YORK HERALD.


DUBLIN, Nov. "a, 1872.
Mr. Lewis, a conservative, has been returned to
Parliament from Londonderry.
THE CANDIDATES AND PLATFORMS
The contest was OF a very exciting character, Mr..
Lewis having to contend with the interests OF Mr..
Bigger, o home ruler; Of Mr.. Palles q. c., who
had the support OF the Roman Catholics, and Of
Mr.. McCorkill, wealthy shipowner OF the city, q
Presbyterian, and OF the same scale ofconservat
ism as himself.
Mr.. Lewis is an Englishman. He has been repre-
sented as an Anglican high churchman, but the
statement Is said to be unfounded the fact being
his friends declare that he lett the Anglican Church
because he disapproved It's practices, and joined
the Prcsbyterians. He delivered effective speeches
In reference to the claims OF his opponents. He
quoted resolutions passed at meeting oil Roman
Catholics at Marlborough street cathedral on the
education question, to show that Mr.. Palles, who
was present, supported the demands Of the Roman
Catholic bishops He also read an address OF toe
learned gentleman to the electors OF Meath, after
the death OF Mr. CORDIALLY, In which he denounced
the s'usurpaton Of Victor Emmanuel promised
tnat no efforts of his should be wanting ia order TO
restore the Pope to his dominions, e.nd also de-
cIared himself IN favor OF denominstl educa-
ton.

Art In the Scudios.

The visits of patrons to the studios Of our
years. This is a result that could scarcely be
expected, in view of the increased interest
taken in art by the general public and the
large sums which are expended in the pur-
chase of works of art. The tendency seems
to be to look at pictures only in the well
other species of merchandise is bought. 1t is
to be hoped that this departure from the older
and healthier custom of visiting the studios
will be checked in time before the artist is
cut off from all communication with the pub
lie. This has been done to such an extent in
chase work, even in the studio, without pay
ing the dealer his regular percentage Like
most other evils, this one is nct with
out its advantages but as a matter of
taste we have no desire to see the system estab-
lished in its entirety among us. The dealer
has his legitimate position in the world of art,
and we have no desire to see him driven from
it; but we should look upon it as great mis-
fortune if the public were completely to cut
themselves off from the creators Of the things
they pay so much to enjoy. Under the infu-
ence of commercial contact art is too liable to
degenerate into trade where men manufac-
ture to suit regular demand, as in other bust
ness. 1t is certain that the best work has been
done in those periods when the artist and the
patron were united in close sympathy, and
when there was something more than mere
question of cash between them. It is not we'll
that while immense sums are being expended
on foreign art native art should be allowed to
decay for want of generous support

John Hmox-Thc Tercentenary Cele.
bratiOn.

bratiOn.
Yesterday. three hundred years ago. in his
own house in the High street of Edinburgh,
died John Knox. in the sixty-seventh year of
his age. During the course of the last week
the tercentenary of the great reformer was
celebrated in various parts of the United
States and in the New Dominion. as well as in
Scotland, England and Ireland. 1t is not
unfair to say that John Knox was the father
of the Scottish Reformation and the founder of
the Presbyterian Church. His name is and
ought to be dear to Scotland; and Presby
terians, wherever found, are in duty bound to
honor his memory. In some respects Knox was
a hard man. He was man of strong will and of
unfiinching purpose. An iconoclast in the
true sense he most unquestionably was. It
must at the same time be admitted that if he
destroyed it was not because he loved destruc-
ton, but because he wished to build a nobler
edifce on surer foundations Luther, Melanc-
thOn. Calvin, Latimer and others must be
remembered in connection with the Reforma-
ton fight in the sixteenth century. They all
did good work, and their work remains behind
connection with the Reformation in Scotland
and in connection with the history Of the
Presbyterian Church, and that name is John
Knox. How far Presbytery is a good thing
and how much Scotsmen are of value in
the modern world are open questions. If,
however, there be anything grand in Presby-
terianlsm or anything good in Scotsmen, the
praise and the glory must be given to John
Knox more than to any other man, He Sc
cured for his country religious liberty, and,
dying, he left it as a precious legacy to his
countrymen. He gave Scotland also the
parish church and the parish school. The
church and the school, what have they not
done for Scotland? Scotland is the native
home of Presbytery. and the Presbyterian
churches on this Continent honor themselves
by honoring the memory of the Scottish Re-
former, the founder of Presbyterianism.
After Luther Knox is the grandest name Of
the Reformation.

The City Improvemcnts-Tho Ncccs-
sity for .. Progressive Policy.

IOr - Progressive FOl1cys
The offences Of the old Tammany Ring are
familiar to the wond. 1t would be equally as
useless to enlarge upon them as to endeavor
to pallate them. At the same time it is I'M
deniable that undr the Tammany rule great
works Of public Improvement were undertaken
and pushed vigorously forward, by which the
value Of property WIS largely enhanced, the city
beautifed and the comfort and conveniences
of the people inoeased. The public parks
present daily evidence of these facts, and the
dock improvements al the lower end Of the
city and the magnificent boulevards Mt the
upper end bear witness of the enterprise of
their projectors. The members of the Ring
were magnificent plunderers, but they were
also Napoleonic in their ideas, and if they had
been honest would have made New York in a
few years the wonder and admiration of the
world. We should have had viaduct rail
road to Harlem now we'll under way and
splendid system of roads completed in the
upper part of the island.
1t is a fortunate thing for the people that
the Ring is dead, so far as the cause Of honest
government is concerned. But there is no
reason why the works they projected and com
menced should be left unfinished. The repub-
ican Legislature has now the opportunity to
place these splendid Improvements on the high
road to completion, and it is very desirable that
in this important matter they should act har-
moniously with Mayor Havemeyer and the
rest of the municipal authorities. The dock
improvements, the Improvement of the Harlem
River, the opening up Of the splendid
country beyond the river in Westches-
ter county-an these works should be
renewed without delay and pushed with
vigor At present we have fine broad roads on
the maps in the upper part of the island and
in Westchester county, but narrow, crooked,
barbarous roads on the ground. The boule-
wards that have been laid out now for years
should be completed with as little delay
as possible, SO that the present generation
may be benefited by the improvements on
which they have already invested considerable
money. New York now requires broad,
liberal, generous policy; and unless the re-
formed government gives us this it will be
detriment instead of an advantage to the city.
