TIE PRESLDENTS MEsSAGE.

We have from Washington some semi-Ofli-
cial hints as to the Presidents forthcoming
Message. He does not propose to say any
thing more friendly toward the South, be-
lieving it unnecessary, He is not GER
tain that he will recommend Am
nesty. He will ask for legislation about
form, the President believes in it, but not to
the extent of treating friends and enemies of
the Administration alike. Something less pos
tive, but in the same direction, was said by Mr..
Greeley, at Portland. 1t was then received
with O storm of denunciation. Is will now
evoke from the same sources for the most
part praise, though to few it may be given
TO perceive that silence is more fit.
Presidents Messages are sometimes regarded
as giving survey of the progress and politi-
cal condition of the country. In the forth
coming document, however, we are not likely
to have set forth one or two points
in such survey, in which, never
theless, we think Republican Admin
istratiOn has reason to rejoice. For the
first time in generation, Congress will
represent nation, whereof the South is not
compact, political body, having all its
tiOnal questions, aud throwing its weight
almost solidly into one scale. No greater gain
for the safety of the country could be Sc
cured. 1t is an ill-omen to the Republic when
its political parties divide along lines Of
latitude and, since Gen. Grant was to be re-
elected, it is better for the whole country
that the solid South is not arrayed against
him. At the North our people have hereto
fore divided among themselves on national
as well as other topics; at the South the
whites have stood together against a
leading party at tho North, and sub
ordinated all other politics to that
sectional opposition. Henceforth there is an
end of dealing with tho old Southern people
as a unit, any more than with the Northern OF
the Western people; and we count that a
great gain for the country, and for the South
Not less is the gain in tho division of the
negro vote. Men now generally know that
the Georgia majority was swelled by many
negroes who chose for tho first time to unite
with their old masters in political action. To
true IN several of the other States. The
movement thus begun is sure to continue
Already the negroes in South Carolina
have shrewd idea of the robbery that has
been carried on by their favorites and there
are signs there of negro reform movement
that may grow to something. So at the
North, the Irish and tho German vote have
both been divided. There has been less
following Of caucuses and more indie
pendent voting by men heretofore counted
as the surest subjects Of the caucus rule than
ever before. In word, lines of race and
color, like lines Of latitude, have ceased to DO
fixed lines of political division. And we count
gat o great gsia fox tho country.

society cannot rest its security on tho candOr
and sense of justice of its better members IL
must go back 90 the primeval conditions OF
mankind and each one redress his own wrong
Possibly even the pardoning power (wiscly aud
sparingly exercised of late) should be extin-
guished leaving only to the court of final juiis-
diction power to enlarge the criminal whom
the inferior tribunals have found guilty.
With some such corrections of the errors of
our system we may hope that life may be rem
dered as secure in New-YOrk as it * in Paris.
London, or Berlin. Without them there will be
murders in ever increasing number until the
community, in self-defense, rises up, and,
sweeping away the false and Elusive safe
guards of juries and tribunals, redresses in an
hour the accumulated injuries of a decade.
Let no fool imagine that we counsel this
alternative We but forebode and preiigure it.

pTNISHLNG MURDERERS.

Twenty one persons are confined in the
TOmbs each one of whom is believed to have
destroyed the life of a fellow creature. In
the case of most of them the evidence of their
crime amounts to certainty Some have been
convicted and sentenced; some tried before
iuries, which agreed as to the crime, but diff
fered as to its degree; few remain untried.
Only one person has been hanged for murder
in this city for the last twelve months. The
murders which have been wrought in that in-
terval exceed thirty. Is there not something
wrong in our system of ascertaining crime and
administering tustice9 How long will i'm
periled society abide this appalling condition 7
Is the fault with the ju1esl Are judgments
practically reversed by the imbecility or cor
ruptiOn of single one of their number2 Is
it with the Judges Do they or some of them
ignorantly OF corruptly grant respite and re-
newed trial to murderers fairly cOnvictedl Is
there something rotten and Ubiquitous in the
law which permits an executive officer to

These are questions which agitate society.
1t is manifest that society has a right to pro-
tect itself. But what right That of violently
recovering to itself the function of justice and
hanging in day and on one gallows the twenty
one murderers at present assembled in cor
ridor of the TOmbsf Such an act would,
doubtless, for time enhance the security of
the citizen. But expedients promising this
transitory relief are of course impracticable,
and would be without permanent avail. Bnt
lawful and sufficient methods of relief are
within the reach of the community. 1t must
tolerate on the bench no judge of any legal
tribunal who can possibly be suspected Of L.
Incapacity; 2. Corruption; 3. Sympathy with
any allies of the criminal classes 1t must de-
mand and enforce change in the judge
making power. Baxter-st., the Sixth Ward,
Cow Bay, the various haunts of rufRanism and
disorder, must no longer elect the magistrates
before whom their crimes are to be tried. A
change must be wrought in the law regulating
the impaneIing of juries. Responsibility, in
telligence, and freedom from personal bias,
are the qualities which must be exacted. No
person possessing these should be arbitrarily
put aside; none Without them sGseRted II

The Commissioners of Charities and Cor
rection on Monday gracefully abandoned the
absurd position which they had some time
previously held. in common with others, as to
their right to audit and pay their own ac-
counts through their own treasurer and with
out the supervision of the Controller Two
other departments still maintain this untenable
position. 1t is incompatible with safe and re-
sponsible administration of the Finances. The
people of this city hold Andrew H. Green re-
sponsible, as Controller, for the auditing and
payment of all claims whatsoever; they have
put him in the breach between themselves
and the public plunderers, and they will some
day call him to a strict accountability, which
he need not fear if he continues as now to
guard the Treasury at every point. In the
beginning Mr.. Green made the error OF
placing funds to the credit of the treasurers
of the various departments. 1t was unauthor-
lied by law, and on discovering as much he
very sensibly gave notice that the bad prece-
dent he had set would not be considered
binding on himself. This was a wise decision,
| in which the two recalcitrant Fire and Dock
| Departments had better acquiesce without
| longer delay.

FpoUDF no THE FRONT AGAIN.

The final lecture of Mr.. Burke on Irish his
tory and Mr. Froude's views thereon, spirited
ly rounded off the course last night. The
orator did not confne himself to any special
point in controversy, but reviewed the whole
field over which the debate has passed. Sew
eral important points in dispute, however
were dwelt upon with force and vehemence,
and the learned gentleman, with a flight of
Parthian arrows. but great good nature
withal, summed up his case.

various critics in detail His lecture at Associa-
ton Hall next Saturday night, it is understood,
will be specially devoted to review of the at
tacks of Messrs. Meline and Burke and of The
Saturday Rcrie0. The frank, straightforward
manner of Mr.. Froude. his familiarity with his
subjects and his earnestness, will be sure to
make his reply one of absorbing interest, to
say nothing of the attractiveness which it will
have to those who have followed the drift of
this remarkable controversy.

Another illustration of the advantage or
having at least one member of the Board OF
Audit who will examine bills before paying
them viii he found in the abstract which we
publish of the report on the Gas Companies
charges. This is something new and of great
interest to taxpayers. The refusal of Con
troller Green to pay the exorbitant charges
hos resulted in saving of $4,000 of over
cboroes for 1871 alone. Gas was charged for
upder the Ring at the rate of $53 per lamp
whereas careful examination has shown
that ei9 was q liberal allowance. There is
hardly "a question that this Over-charge went
10 tine thieves; that the Gas Companies were
compelled, precisely as Garvey and Keyser
were, to make fraudulent charges in order to
get what was due them and at the same time
allow commissions TO those who pretended to
secure approval of the bills. We have before
limited that among those who largely profted
hv this fraud were Hugh Smith and Controller
Connolly. We trust steps will be taken to
compel the companies to dvulge to an invest-
eating committee what others shared in this
enormous plumber and that then all the proved
rogues viii be forced to disgOrge.

Il SONCHITIS.

This is an irritation or Inflammation of the
bronchial tubes which carry the air we
breathe into the lungs. 1t arises from a cold
settled in the throat, from Catarrh extending
to these parts, from scrofulous affections, and
from severe use Of the voice. The irritation
from this latter cause commences in the lar
yar and glotis, which are the organs of the
voice, and, extending downwards, produces
hoarseness, coughing, and spittin: mucous
matter, sometimes mixed with blood 1t is
chiefly dtngerous from its tendency to spread
into the lungs, and terminate in consumption.
