QUICK TRANSIT.

The sorcst need of our City to-day is Rapid
Transit to her suburbs. We are n community
of Two Millions, whereof half live on this
island and the rest, working here throughout
the day. have their homes and spend their
nights along the railroads which radiate from
our stores, Offices, and workshops, like spOkes
from hub. If we could be carried ten miles
from the City Hall in twenty to thirty minutes,
our average comfort and prosperity would
be signally increased. We urgently need a
Bridge over the East River, ultimately, more
than one) a Tunnel under the Hudson, and
Rapid Transit by rail and steam to Harlem
and Westchcster County. And such Transit
is only possible by some tunnel bored under
or viaduct carried over our streets. Expert
ence has abundantly proved that an iron track
along the surface cannot be traversed with
safety, if carried along and across crowded
streets at any such speed as is Indispensable
The Viaduct has had fair trial. The last
Legislature passed the required Charter; the
City was to supply half the funds; strong
directory was organized; but the stock was not
taken. There was no serious opposition to the
project but nobody wanted to invest money
in it. The general verdict was, 1t will not pay.
The Beach Pneumatic, the Swain Three-Tier,
and the Central Underground are rival pro-
jects before the present Legislature. and there
are two or three others. These are old friends
with washed (or bleacled) faces. We wish
they did not clash, for we should be heartily
glad TO see any or all of them in operation.
But they uiH get into each others way, and
there is danger that, if all are endowed with
the privileges they seek, none of them will
be built We look with most favor on the
Central Underground, because there seems to
be most cash and most resolution behind it.
We bolieve the men who ask for il have tho

The letter of certain New York Republicans
to Col. Grosvenor, herewith printed, is the
first unequivocal response from the East to
the overture of the Liberal Republicans of
the West for consultation at Cincinnati on
Wednesday, May 1. Others will soon follow.
There is no longer excuse for doubt that the
Convention will be held, and that it will be
inhuentially attended.
We presume that, should any important ac-
ton be taken at Cincinnati, those present from
each State would designate a portion of their
number to cast the vote of that State in the
Convention. But no one is excluded from at
tending and the invitation is so broad that
many will doubtless be present who have not
been delegated. Cincinnati proffers to all a
generous welcome.
Whether the Convention will determine to
put forth declaration of principles, to present
National candidates, or adopt some other form
Of appeal to the country, no one is entitled to
forecast. Whatever it shall do or PROFOUND
will necessarily derive all its force from its
accord with public sentiment. This COnven-
ton speaks with no authority, claims no power
but that which may be accorded to the in
trinsic worth of its acts and its declarations

NERLC1N HLBRELUING.

A mOrtifying expose of our national lack OF
good breeding was offered, We learn, at the
reception lately given by the japanese En-
bassy in Washington. Who the mob were
who were invited, it is difficult TO say; they
certainly bore the names of the leaders Of
Washington society; yet, before half Of the
guests had been presented to their stately en-
tertaincrs, these so-called ladies and gentle
men rushed into the suppcr-roOm, and not
only greedily began to devOur all before
them, as though half-starving, but tore down
the floral and other decorations, until when
their hosts arrived the scene was one OF as
general havoc as though the swine OF Gree
had been let loose in the hall. "One OF the
Embassy" we are told Preaching for a small
"Japanesc flag on the chandelier, to present
L" to a lady on his arm, L. s. officer showed
him aside, and taking out his sword, hacked
"and hewed at it to bring it down for him
"self, until the lamp shades were shattered
cover the table" Meanwhile, our uncivilized
guests concealed their disgust at the scene
under their usual grave courtesy.
With every fresh embassy from Il foreign
country, it would seem that our fashionable
society devised some new vulgarity as speci-
might be mortified by the report abroad.
When Alexis was here, our ladies, in their
subseryient anxiety to please, cOmp0rted them
selves toward him in every public place with
the demeanor Of waitng-maids rather than
wcll-brcd women. Young girls waited eagerly,
trembling for him to choose them as partners
in the dance, and il ncigllbOrinS city, where
q private suppcr-rOOm was furnished tor HIM
self and suite, at ball, the men took their
places first, and the ladies were huddled In
afterward, blushing under the honor.
In the present case, the Washington leaders
OF bon ton seem to have looked upon their
hosts as savages, and gladly embraced the
chance to return to their original nature.
Some explanation for this almost incredible
vulgarity may be found in the fact that our
society is so largely under the control OF boys
and girls, wholly immature in knowledge, good
sense, or good breeding. But the herd OF ad-
mirers who painted after Alexis, and the
hungry crowd who tore to pieces the japanese
supper-tablc, comprised q gOOdly number OF
matrons. Can it be that our women, in claim
ing Independent standing ground beside TIE
men, have not perceived that the grave self
respect and courtesy of gentleman wins
its way further than the boorshness of the
ruilian Must they begin at the lowest grade
of manhood to work their way up? Outside
of the limits of tawdry fashionable life, our
ladies retain, as we believe, the dignity and
reserve which is the brthright of every we'll
bred woman. But, unfortunately, neither
Japanese nor Russians penetrate into the
arcana Of American hOme-lile.

THE JUDGES IND THE CRIMINALS.

THE JUDGES And TIE CRIMINALS
IL has been urged by the few Journals
friendly, for personal or political reasons, to
the accused Judges Barnard and CardOzo, that
il was incumbent on the aCcusers to establish
colusion in money matters between the Judges
and their Crates and with litigants. We have
held this was neither necessary nor important,
because we have felt that this kind of corrup-
ton was the least of the Ohcnses charged.
Something, however, has been done in this
direction which, if not conclusive, is at least
suggestive and very suspicious. Valuable fur
niture and at least one check OF $1,000, have
been pretty clearly traced from the Erie Ring
to Judge Barnard. The financial relations
which existed between Judge CardozO and his
nephew ratz, Mr.. Nathan, have not yet been
cOnclusivcly proven to be corrupt; but we are
much mistaken if they are not fully shown to
be Infamous before the session of Monday next
shall have been closed
But all this is as nothing compared to the
gross corruption which has followed the abuse
of the systems of References and Receiver
ships to which We have before alluded. We
can afford to lose all the filthy money which
these poor lawyers may have gotten, i'll or
otherwise; but the interests driven from New
York by the malpractice which the accused
have encouraged can never be restored it
will require years to cure the corruption of the
legal profession thereby cngendcred and the
gross injustice done litigants can never be un-
done and reparation made. These are among
the direct evil fruits of the Judicial corruption
of which these men are undoubtedly guilty,
and for which public safety requires that they
shall be punished by being divestcd of the
power to repeat the onenses.
Their removal would 10 warranted, indeed.

by the testimony. Of which we give q synopsis
elsewhere, showing them to have been guilty OF
30 perverting justice that notorious criminals,
regularly committed for proved crimes, have
been turned loose TO prey on society, without
inquiry or examination or any regular ana
legal proceedings. They have converted the
sacred writ of HaJcas Corpus itself into an
instrument of Injustice. No longer the safe
guard of honesty, they have made 1t the loop
hole by which notorious criminals escape. In
the list of one hundred and eighty-elght crlml-
nails let loose by Barnard and Card0zo, which
we publish elsewhere, are the dhds OF many
of the worst characters in the city, lnciudlng
such desperate fellows as "Reddy the Dlack
smith, Dutch Henrichs," David tho DOnd
robber, and such depraved creatures as Ade-
Iaide Beaumont and other less notorious women
of the town. Who cares or asks whether or not
the two Judges granting the Hdbeds Corpus
wrts and signing the discharges which inflicted
these characters on the community shared
with the lawyers the fees which they exacted I
Though the Bar Association have not aban-
doned hope of proving even this much, IL Is
of little consequence. What is proven Is the
more serious accusation that without law OF
the forms of justice, without inquiry as to the
facts in each case, and even without seeing
the prisoners, Barnard and CardozO have
granted these releases. They have thereby
encouraged and fostered crime on the one
hand. and on the other have demoralizcd the
police, whose duty it was TO prosecute such
persons, but have been naturally dlsheartened
by the evidences Of the thieves influence with
the Judges. These are Oifenses OF magni-
tudo not to be calculated and not to be con-
doned with light punishment.
Tho important fact was developed on
| Thursday before the Committee that in 1868,
when the Erie Ring was banished in Jersey
by Barnard's adverse decisions, Mr.. David
Dudley Field, as the Ring lawyer, threatened
Barnard with impeachment. lie went so tar
as to prepare q memorial to the Legislature.
1t was at the same time that Thomas u. Shear
man prepared his philippe against the same
Judge. In a few weeks thereafter the Judge
and his two assailants were the best OF
| friends. The Bar Association was in FAR
way to develop what were the facts in this
memorial which thus affected Barnard, when
the Committee strangely enough sustained
| Mr. Fields refusal to produce the document,
or to give the name Of his client who fur
nished the facts, that he might he subpenaed.

THE WINTERS LESSON.

At length, we hear from Texas that our long,
cold Winter has been hard on her vast herds
as well as those farther north. The season
has been dry as well as cold; the praircs are
bare of grass; and the cattle are dying by tens
of thousands. Whoever would buy hides cheap
will doubtless find them in Texas about these
days. We estimate the total loss at one mil
lion, while those that survive will be gaunt
and feeble, with their calves barely able to
stand up.
Henry Bersh is needed in all our great
Western pasture-ground. This covering the
land with herds that are never fed, letting
them take their chance of living or dying
whenever feed is short, is at once wasteful
and cruel. Any great cattle-grower might
have fenced (by ditching, if not Otherwise)
few hundred acres II year ago, moved and
stacked the wild hay, and saved Herewith
thousands of the cattle that have since starved
