1t is true, as we observe on more careful
reading of the Committee of Seventy's i'll
Judged action with reference to the rival
Twombly and Hawkins bills, at Albany that
they do not undertake directly to instruct the
legislators. What their resolution lacks in ex-
pIicit declaration here, however, it more than
makes up in its unwarranted attack upon tho
characters of Gen. Cochrane and Mr.. Van
Mort. This is the mere madness of defeated
faction. Gentlemen who could support Mr..
James O'Brien cut discredtable figure now
in undertaking to arraign the President of tho
Reform Board of Aldermen and the President
of the Board of Public Works. The Commit
tee of Seventy sprang from a patriotic union
of all parties for reform. Let it take care that
the schemers who now seem to control it do
not get arraycd in the interest of single
faction of one party against Reform.

WJSE MEN FROM THE EAST.

The most important Embassy that ever left
Asia for the West is that which has lately
landed from Japan the Pacific shore of this
Republic. 1t is made up Of men of high
rank in tho japanese Empire, and Off
cials who seem to have been selected with
especial reference to their qualifications as
active members of the different branches Of
their government. The Embassy consists of
five high functionaries, eight secretaries,
twenty-five observers from various depart
ments of public service, and an immense fol-
lowing, making in all over one hundred persons.
Iwakura, the chief ambassador, was formerly
Minister for Foreign Affairs, is now Premier
of the Empire, and is commissioned as Envoy
Extraordinary and Minister PlenipOtentiary
to the Treaty Powers He has heretofore
been at the head of the anti-foreign party, but
has wisely yielded to what appears mani
fest destiny in Japan, and is said to
be anxious that his country should
make the best possible use of the
changes which seem inevitable. He is de-
scribed as a man of extraordinary shrewdness
and decision of character. The second in rank
is KIDD, an official who has, as member of the
Mikado's Privy Council, been q confidential
u0Nl2cl W thpV potVutu'V' AhO VtuSA
who are also commissioned as ambassadors
are Okubo, Minister of Finance; Ito,
Assistant Minister Of Public Works ;
and Yama- Guchi, Assistant Minister Of For
eign Affairs. Ito has already visited the
United States, and speaks the English Ian
guage fuenty. He is probably one Of the
most progressive men of the Empire, and has
special predispositions in favor of the manu-
features and commerce of our own country.
The revision Of the treaties of Western ma
tons with Japan is to be begun in July next
This work gives ostensible excuse for the
sending forth of the Embassy, but, as the chief
ambassadors have already announced, their real
purpose Is to investigate the workings of the
various political systems of Europe and Amer
ica, observe the condition of tho people, and
above all, to see for themselves the mechani-
cal and manufacturing processes now in use
In the countries to which they are accredited,
examine domestic manufactures, and look into
the improvements which have been made in
coastwisc and inland transportation. We are

Now that the New Orleans efforts to provoke
riots, secure martial law, overturn the State
Government and the like, have been crushed,
it is pertinent to inquire how much longer the
National Government is to be disgraced by
such officers as Messrs. Casey and Packard.
1t is quite possible that in the hurry burly of
the late excitement they have been ac-
cuscd of some things of which they are not
guilty 1t is possible that in some other things
there have been Qualifications for their con-
duct. But enough is established, and is primd
tacie and PROFESSIONALLY inexcusable enough
to warrant the forwarding of their dismissal
by telegraph. Malicious enemies of the Presi-
dent will not be slow to say that such dismis-
sal is delayed because one of the offenders
is his brother-in-law. Will he not bring such
critics to confusion by prompt action

The game Of conspiracy and cabal still con-
hnues in France. The Orleanists are trying,
it seems, to patch up reconciliation with the
Comte de Chambord, not recognizing the fact
that they will run no faster in the race for
power, when that dead weight is fastened on
their shoulders. Prince Napoleon has been

Some of these days it is possible that one OF
these princes may strike the Republic muir
derous blow, and then we will hear loud

The brutal murder of an unofcnding and
peaceable gentleman, in Brooklyn street
car, will once more shock the public sense of
the security of life in large city. The crime
Is one of great enOrmity, the circumstances
are peculiarly aggravatine, and the interests
OF society demand that the murderer or muir
derers be found and punished Vigorously.
