That Mr. Havemeyer will try to give us an
honest, efficient City rule, no one doubts,
though he may have earnestly desired the
election of Mr.. Lawrence as more capable and
nearer the prime Of life. That be will be eff
ciently seconded by Controller Green is also
beyond question. If the Charter is defective
the new Legislature will readily amend 1t; if
any head of department blocks the way, he
will be- constrained to move on.
Then what shall hinder tho desired consum-
mationR
The defects of our present Charter are
mainly these:
/. Divided responsibility. The Commissioner
of Public Works, the Police Commissioners,
Tax Commissioners, &C., are independent of
each other and of the Mayor also. The first
step in the good work is concentration of
authority. .
2. Needless multiplication of functionaries
There are twice as many persons above the
grade of PatIolmen and Firemen drawing
their sustenance from the City's treasury as
there should be. ............
8. OVERRIDING. The City has immense pnb-
tic interests which she must manage and direct
through her municipality. Water, Fire,
Streets, Parks, &C., she must hold in the boil
low of her hand. But she very properly in
trusts to private enterprise The running of her
Ferries, though the conduct of these is essen
tial to her well-being So of the Railroads
and Steamboats, which connect her with the
country. She realizes that these arc better
managed by private enterprise than they.
would or could be if she owned and ran them.
Then why not extend the application OF This
maxim to Markets, Wharves, Piers. &c.f 1t
seems to us that great advantages and econo-
mics would result from such extension.
Let those construct Markets who want TO sell
fresh Vegetables, Meats, &C., or to rent stalls
to those who do; but let the City merely in
spoct them daily to take care that no infec-
tioa or oontagion B generated, and that
New-York tribune., 1872-11-08

rotLiuc ia sold therein which Ia unfit for hu-
man food. Sell or lease our present Markets,
but not without stpulations that each shall
speedily be made exactly what n market should
be. Thenceforth, trust to private enterprise
TO erect and maintain Markets just where
they should be, and to competition to regulate
their respective rents and prices.
As TO Wharves Piers and Docks, the ease ~
not so plain; but the principle is the same
We have surveyed and planned TO surfelt :;
now let individuals be invited to compete as
bidders for the privilege of reconstructins
Pier 1, 2, 3, &c, in perfect accord with the
plan of the Dock Commission, and to charge
stipulated rates for the use thereof Or rather
give the job to whOmsoever will contract TO
afford the required accommodation on inc
terms most favorable to the public.
This is but a rude outline, to be modified as
circumstances shall dictate. The principle Oh
remitting TO private enterprise whatever pub
lie service can thus be more cheaply ana
efficiently secured, is as applicable to Docks
and Wharves az TO the work done by EX-
press Companies or by Electric Telegraphs.
And in this circumscription OF the sphere OF
Municipal service is to be found one OF the
fields of greatest promise for Municipal Re

science has TEshed its way 10 foremost
place; IN some>R thorough practical scicn-
tifc education is given in others it ia
not only thorough but gratuitous Such
thorough training is in fact rendered so prac-
ticcable among us that Professor Pepper re-
Gently expressed his intention Of leaving his
son in this country to be educated, not only
the instruction but the appliances for teaching
being superior TO those which he could find at
home another proof that the American, once
convinced of his need of anything to help him
IN his progress, whether it be the education
or the machinery for education, will not STINT
himself therein. Professor Tyndall's welcome
is but the sign of a change in our whole edn-
cational system: a change which, whatever
are our prejudices in favor Of the older
method we must grant is founded OIL present
exigencies and on common sense.

Did Lord Brougham write the novel recently pub
llshed as his, called ALBERT Lunel'' THIS Is n
question which is exciting no little discussion in the
literary circles of England. The evidence pro and
cor his authorship may he stated briefly follows
The publisher says that he bought the book OF Mr.
Thomas Millard, who in his turn, had bought 1t of
the present Lord Blougham, who has entered into
an undertaking TO make no claim in respect or
copyright This is positively all the direct evidence
there il that Lord Brougham is the author; and
really one is tempted to say that it is no evidence
at all The book was printed in 1874 and
suppressed, what appears 10 be new pup
lcation being. in fact, the old sheets WIN
u now title-page. The author speaks Oh
himself in the preface having no name at all -
but this may have been bit of mystiiication' Tho
internal evidence of the book itself is said to DO
against tho presumption of Brougham's authorship
as the plot Is commonplace, the construction mar
tstic the style sloyenly-the whole trash, IN fact
Our readers after this will be asounded TO b. told

Texas has a State Prison located at Huntsville

steadily and rapidly increasing. The cost OF running
it. when its population was six hundred was
100000 per annum; and even that was cheap as
State Prisons 90.
Some FIVE or six years ago, enterprising part
nershp offered $175 900 per annum for the work they
could get out Of the conyicts and the offer was ao-
cepted. The prisoners have been working under ths
contract ever since, to the eminent satisfaction al
the contractors. We are not sure as 10 tho IrS-

Indian matters in Arizona, according to
Gen. Howard's latest report, are in an uncom-
monty hopeful condition The selection OF .
reservation for Cochisc and his band impbc5
that this sanguinaIy ohieftain's raiders are to
be kept ON the tract thus chosen for them.
Cochise promises fairly, and we may almost
expect an aboriginal millennium when we hear
of his being delighted with the idea OF
railway line through his country as means
of communication with his friends in thc
North. When Indians welcome railroad traVei-
ing facilities, their night of barbarism is pretty
much over. There is naturally enough another
side to this rosy picture. Gen. Howard recon-
mends vigorous campaign against all rowing
bands of Apaches. He thinks that Gen. Crook
has not been properly sustained, and that he
should forthwith be supplied with moro
effective force. This is exactly what THE
TRIBUNE has frequently suggested. Gen. Crook
has been interfercd with when he might, II
left alone, have accomplished much in the in
terest of peace then, when the Peace Com
missioners were negotiating, warlike operations
were not always fully suspended. People who
know Cochise Will distrust his good words J;
but let him and his have a fair trial. Mean
time, it is good sign that Gen. Howard
believes in Gen. Crooks policy.
