We have the right to congratulate ourselves
and our readers upon having received, Tor yes
terday's issue of THE TRIBUNE, the first COM
plete and well-considered account OF the open
ing Of the Vienna Exhibition which has come
to America. We present, this morning, an
other valuable installment of the same CORE
spondence. Our letters must be relied upon
as the most faithful and the fullest narration
of the incidents of this great international
festival which has been or which will be pub
lished in this country. Our agents in Vienna
are equally distinguished as skillful and prac-
ticed journalists, and as writers whose names
are as well and widely known as any IN
American literature. They will continue TO
furnish, in advance of all competition, the
best and the most timely accounts of every
thing worth recording at the Austrian capital
while the Exhibition lasts. In this, as IN
every other field of correspondence, in Europe
and elsewhere, we purpose to retain the pre-
eminence which THE TRIBUNE long ago cstab-
lished, of furnishing the earliest the best
written, and the most accurate intelligence Of
all passing events.

The combination formed by the rebellious
Aldermen was in reality only rope of sand.
As the readers of THE TRIBUNE were pre-
pared to expect, it has already given way, and
Alderman Kehr has, with seven others, signed
the request for special meeting of the Board
of Aldermen. In pursuance of this, the meet
ing will be held this afternoon. The nomina-
tons already presented will be considered,
and several others will probably be sent in.
The Mayor, with that discretion which has
already contributed so much to his success,
reserves the expression of his intentions until
the time for action arrives. If he persists in
his present firm yet temperate course it will
be difficult if not impossible for any cor
rupt or interested combination to make head
against him.

The war against liquor sellers which has just COM
menced in Massachusetts, is at its hight in New
Hampshire The gentlemen who dispense stimu-
lants there are rather inscriptions in their line OF
defense. They grdle the trees of prominent tenn
perance men; paint their doors black; and in
Plymouth they ruined 5000 worth of marble monu-
ments belonging to temperance tradesman by
smearing them with black paint. A pleasant state
of things according to the local newspaper, exists
in that sequestered hamlet, where elimination and
recrimination reports false and true, Christian and
unchrisian have been batted from one to tho other
without much respect for age or SEX or previous
reputation or condition." The trouble in Massa-
chusetts will probably Re still more intense. The
State authorities have determined vigorously and
vigorously to enforce the law The Temperance men
feel that this is the last chance and that the law II
it fails now, will probably fail forever. The ac-
cumuation of penalties may be continued, but there
always comes time when this sort of medicine
loses its potency If the penalty of selling rum
were death, there would sull be men who would
run the risk, and sell. The experiment is to be
tried in Massachusetts under the most favorable
conditions. What will come of it, we shall see.

1t is understood that the vacant chair of the
Chief-Justice of the Supreme Court is at the
disposition of the Hon. Roscoe COnklng. But
the Senator, influenced by the advice of friends,
hesitates about accepting a position which,
exalted as it is, has the disadvantage of being
generally regarded as fnality. His accept
ance of this position now would seem to many
of his friends an injudiciOus sacrifice Of more
conspicuous chances three years hence.

One of the most distinguished and popular
pulpit orators of the Presbyterian Church
elucidates, in the letter elsewhere printed this
morning, the business coming before the Cen
eral Assembly of that great and peculiarly
useful organization, which embraces 80 much
of the intelligence and Christian zeal of the
country. No man could discuss the subject to
whom New-YOTk would give reader ear

Lord Lytton gives in Kenelm Chlingly' piece
of advice of epigrammatc wisdom. If you want
to keep young" he says through Mr. Mivers, live
IN a metropolis; never stay above q few weeks at a
time in the country" This is complete reversal of
the established order of aphorism-but we are in
cned to think that there is something in it, for the
man of leisure at least. 1t is the fashion to think
that the quiet and simplicity of the country keep
people young. 1t is more reasonable to acknowledge
that if they keep the frame young they very soon
manage to rust and relax tho mind. And for this
sentence we beg pardon of COrydon and Chloe.

AS we were confident would be the case,
Mr. Ezra Cornell, whose management of the
College Land Scrip has been severely criti-
cised, demands rigid examination of his
transactions. This is due him, unless the
assumptions made in the Assembly are in
stantly abandoned.

We find in The Wdrsdw Ull.) Bulletin an account Of
a discussion between citizen of Warsaw and one
of Alexandria. both perfect gentlemen" which Is
full of certain unconscious Homeric quality.
After recounting thu direfu spring Of the difficulty,
he says the Alexandrian very injudiciousy called

lightning that hunts its mOmentary way athwart
the cloudbanked sky, the four osseous hills on the
back of the Warsawites hand were laid the eleva
ton in the center of the physiognOmy of the Alex
andran. Like poor skater, his heels slid from un-
der him, and as he sat down he wondered where all
the stars came from that waltzed before his eyes,
and the conclusion caused the fluid of life to
effervesce like freshly tapped beerkeg" At sub
sequent stage of the proceedings. says the chronl-
cler, "the nervous fingers Of the Warsaw warriors
left hand tangled in the flowing ringets of his OPP
ponent, and with the other he kept feeling all over

Bacchius fought better, and their exploits

The strikers in Rhode Island are advised by their
leaders to do a very foolish thing-to withdraw all
their money from the savings banks. At Dyeryille,
the other night, Jonathan Biltce, who is II years
old, and therefore ought to know better, got q
resolution unanimously passed approving of this
sort of strategy. OF course. if the money is with
drawn it will be spent, and after it is spent, how
much better off will the strikers be- Some Of the
funds will be expended wisely or unwisely, and a
portion will go into the pockets of Biltcliffe and
other leaders Here will be not the least melancholy
result of the strike. The game would hurt the
operatives far more than the capitalists.

A specimen case Of the effects of Ring rule
in the markets is exhibited in the curious
complication of Sexton agt. West and Mckay,
elsewhere reported in this paper. Here was a
case where Ring official Zone Mckay was able
to Dust a tenant from his proper leasehold in
Clinton Market and compel him to take refuge
in a shed, to his great loss and expense. The
curious part of the affair is that the elected
tenant gave diamond pin to his powerful
enemy, who alleges that the brilliant was a
token of gratitude. The giver, on the other
hand, declares that it was q sort of blackmail
to secure "protection" from his prosecutor.
Verdict for Sexton.

1t seems well-nigh impossible to reconcile
the conflicting interests involved in the pas
sage of the New-York Local Improvement
bill. The two gentlemen who appear for the
different sides of the controversy fatty con-
tradict each other on the main questions at
issue. Mr. Strahan, who appears for the bill,
has all along contended that the bill could
not possibly be objected to by any intelligent
official the impression was gwen that the
Mayor and Controller approved it. Now Mr..
Hawkins, who represents the Mayor and Con-
troler, argues that the bill has been radi-
cally changed since those gentlemen gave it
their assent. lie further says that the Commits
sioner of Public Works is by it endowed with
extraordinary powers aud duties, and that he
Will be able to peTpetuate many of the abuses
of the corrupt Tweed rule. 1t is a curious
illustration of the complicated system of gov
eminent under which we live that the much
discussed bill, plain as it is declared to be. is
really a network of mystery.

Still another troublesome oversight mas oecn
discovered in the new City Charter. 90 hiu,n
attention seems to have been directed 10 .no
famous section which provided for the DIVISION
of the appointing power that many important
errors were undoubtedly made IN other par
ticuars. The latest controversy arises o'ci
the alleged omission of the Legislature 70
harmonic the new Charter with the law 0,
1870 relating to the constitution OF the Doaru
of Supervisors. The new law simply provinces
that "the Aldermen" shall be Supervisors OIL
this county; the statute of 1870 constituted tne
Mayor, Recorder, and Aldermen into the Boaru
of Supervisors. Now as the new Charter docs
not expressly say that all acts and parts Oh
acts inconsistent with this new provision are
hereby repealed, it is argued that the Mayor
is still a member and tho presiding officer OF
the Board of Supervisors. Is he, or Is he not
1t is vexatious that matter that could anu
should be clearly and distinctly settled Is
clouded with doubt. The wording OF the new
law is so loose that it is most likely legal
opinion will be needed formally to unraVei
this new complication.

The Bartlett Lamp was introduced only a
little while ago as an experiment in the pub
lie streets and in the public parks. 1t was
under the Ring management. There are a
great many complaints against it, and it APP

lamps previously in use. Before MIR. Van
Mort renews or extends any contract to supply
other streets with this lamp, won't he please
consult with taxpayers or investigate the
value of these globesi How much this job
has already cost the city we are unable to
learn, careful search through the Commits

of the Board was not so much prompted by

One would suppose that, after tolerably
active campaign of more than two months
the ModOcs would begin to lack for ammunl-
ton. The latest dispatches from the scene of
hostilities indicate that this crisis in their

that these beleaguered vagabonds should be
able to command war material enough to
keep at bay large and well-discplined force

vide for the correction of juvenile delinquents.

mission which shall have charge of this

It is satisfactory to find that the Silk Asso-
citation of America, which had its annual meet
ing and dinner yesterday, seems now firmly
established and commanding the support of the
leading manufacturers. The election of Mr..
Ward Cheney as President YVES a specially tit
act. The enterprise which the firm he repre-
scnts has displayed, and the excellence of the
American silks it produces, render it apprOpri-
ate that he should be at the head of an
association designed to secure the prosperity
of the silk industry, now ranking among the
many important manufactures which the
country owes to Industrial Protection.

If the Legislature should pass the bill for
the enlargement of the Champlain Canal, pro-
vision would be made for ship navigation
directly from the st. Lawrence to this port.
The Assembly has passed the bill, much to
the surprise of most people. AS the Senate is
understood to be unfavorably disposed toward
this measure, it is quite likely that some of the
Assemblymcn who voted for tho bill were
willing to risk its final defeat in the other
branch OF the Legislature.

Great pressure is brought to bear on Gov.
Dix by the friends of the Local Option bill,
now unsigned in his hands. 1t is urged with
great force that the party which elected the
Governor is emphatically and irrevocably
committed to this Temperance measure. OPP
ponents of the bill, on the other hand, say
that the insertion of the cider and lager-beer
clause was never contemplated by the original
advocates of the refOrmatOry provision. How
ever this may be, it is pretty clear that The
Republican party is finding out that it viii
not do to promise conspicuous reform and
then throw the responsibility of its defeat on
the Governor.
