The EMPEROR OF BRAZIL AS A MEDIA
ToR.-The correspondent Of the Pail Mall
Gazette in Rome relates that during the stay
Of the Emperor Of Brazil In the Eternal City
he had number Of audiences with the Holy
Father. At one Of these, it Is stated, he ap-
preached Pic Mono on the subject of recon-
ciliation between him and the King Of Italy.
His Holiness affected surprise at the position
taken by the Brazilian monarch and appeared
very much irritated when the latter promised
to bring Victor Emmanuel to the Vatican
privately in order that he might have an audi
euce with the venerable Pontif. As might
have been expected, the attempted mediation
ended In failure. Pic Mono still maintains
his opposition to Italy's King, and the breach

THE FILTHY STREET CARS of this city are
a disgrace to the public that tolerates them as
well as to the authorities that permit such
conveyances to circulate without any
attempt being made to enforce cleanli-
ness. The Brooklyn city government have
taken step in the right direction on
this matter, and why should not our
reforming City Fathers follow their example !?
The vermin-infested vehicles should be over
hauled, and If there is no help for our being
obliged to hang on by the straps for an hour
at time, why should those straps be the
greasy strips of leather that deflle the fingers
and elude the grasp? In our present posi-
ton, at the mercy Of grasping corporations
and brutal conductors, we are almost afraid to
protest against overcrowding.

Mr.. Mackay, of New York, has introduced
a proposition in the Assembly for q charter
to be composed of three delegates
from each Assembly district In New York,
numbering sixty-three in all, whose duty it
shall be to frame charter for the city, to be
submitted to the Legislature for approval and
enactment. 1t has been said that In multi
tude Of councillors there is wisdom, but
we question whether Assemblyman
Mackay would find this to be true in the
case of his proposed convention. Just
imagine what intelligent and disinterested
delegates would be returned from some of
the districts famous for their Tweed majorI-
ties, and what brilliant ideas would be
advanced in the remarkable body on the priu-
ciples Of corporate government The Com
mittee Of Seventy, with oil its intelligence,
honesty and business capacity, proved itself
but little better than a debating club and
utterly failed in the labor of drafting q
practical charter for the city. What,
then, could be expected of bear
garden of sixty-three elected by the
characters that figure most prominently
in our political prim aries. The fact is, there
would be no difficulty in drafting desirable
city charter, provided those who set about
the work would discard from their minds all
political considerations, all complications and
tinkerings to secure party advantage in this
or that direction, and concentrate their atten-
ton upon the best interests Of the people and
the splendid future Of the metropolis. Half a
dozen intelligent men might perfect such a
law better than hundred. The Committees on
Cities and the Judiciary might each delegate
two of their members for this special duty,
and we have no doubt it would be we'll and
honestly performed. Mr.. Mackay's idea is
simply another of the many impracticable,
tinkering notions to which our recent city
complications have given birth, and should be
treated accordingly. Let the charter be pre-.
pared by the Assembly Committee on Cities,
or by such joint committee as we have sug.
gested, and we have no doubt that we shall
secure good and permanent law under which
to live for the next twenty five years but the
less meddling and muddling we have from
unwieldy volunteer committees and mixed
conventions the better and the m ore promptly
the work will be done.

The Reported Rothschild, Cooke and M
Culloch Loan.

The Reported Rothschild, Cooke and Nc.
Culloch Loan.
There seems to bs little doubt now that q
proposition has been made to the government
by Jay Cooke, McCulloch & Co., In which the
name Of the Rothschilds has been mentioned,
to take six hundred millions of the United
States new four and half per cent securities.
There was an impression that this report was
something of an advertising dodge, and was
put out also as q feeler to ascertain how good
a bargain could be made with the Treasury
Department. 1t appears, however. that Mr..
Boutwell, has been approached by the old
Syndicate, or by new one with some Of tho
old Syndicate connected with it. Still, weS
have yet to learn how far the Rothsohilds
have moved in the matter, and what the con-
ditions of the proposition are. It seems
little strange, too, that if these
famous Rothschild capitalists are dis.
posed to take six hundred millions
OF our securities, they should use any
intermediate agency. Vast AZ tho sum Of the
proposed loan is the Rothschilds are able, no
doubt, to take it 1; but why they should not
act directly with our government and without
the aid Of others we do not we'll understand.
1t is very important proposition and will be
carefully considered, doubtless, by the admin
istration and Congress. 1t is said that one of
the conditions is to have the interest on
portion Of the securities, at least, paid In
Europe. To pay the whole of the interest
abroad might be inconvsnient, as that would
cause q great and constant drain of specie
from this country. In the event Of returning
to specie payments this might place us at the
mercy of foreign capitalists Still, it is
question If a portion Of the interest could not
safely be paid abroad. The saving of six or
seven millions year in interest on the debt is
great temptation to accept such proposal
Then, again, we have to consider, in view of
our improving credit abroad, the prospect of
making q better bargain In the course of
year or two. Above all, let us have no more
Syndicate jobs by which many millions would
be given as a bonus to mere agents. When
we know all the conditions of the proposed
loan we can judge better whether they are &C.
ceptable or not

THE CLOSING OF TAMMANY HALL against
the newly elected Democratic General Com
mittee will recall forcibly the time, two years
ago, when by bold flank movement the
'Boss" succeeded in crushing the Young
Democracy. Tammany Hall was filed

Tiger lay stiHed for time on the steps Of the
Wigwam. There is not 1.-THE of the strength

on which the new General Committee
is repudiated appears very childish, and since

there were 1918 officers required to Oil
vacancies; at the close Of 1870 the deficiency

November, 1871, these figures were swelled to
1853. Unjust be remembered, however, that
during the time specified the Russian army has
been largely increased aud recruiting has been

ton fof Che nomination Of Presidental
ticket, and the democracy, in their new
armor, may make q splendid national fight
next November. The downfall of Tammany,
with the loss of New York, has thrown the
party upon its beam ends. Its stronghold,
with It's citadel, and It's base Of operations, is
In the enemy's hands. A general reorganiza-
oon then, is the first necessity to the bewil-
dered democracy and, dispossessed of their
power in the East they are called upon for
reconstruction which will command the float

will meet the case but that of an early re-

THE TRIAL OF THE FRENCH HOSTAGES. =
The trial of the French hostages for the muir
der of German soldiers in the occupied dis
tricts of France has commenced. That crime
has been committed by French desperadoes
and fanatics is, no doubt, true, but the arrest
of innocent people as hostages is no less o
crime because it is done in what appears to be
legal form. No good will come Of it. The
example of the Paris Commune is hardly
fitting one to be followed by the empire Of Ger
many. 1t will only help to intensity the bitter
feeling already existing between the French
people and their conquerors. Let the guilty
be punished but for the sake Of justice and
humanity let us not have, even at the hands Of
80 great man as Prince Bismarck, indiscrm-
mate punishment.
