SOMEBODY.

Brooklyn Reformers learned yesterday with
pleasure that Gov. Dix, having been unde-
ceiyed about the Britton investigation, had
refused any further delay, and had set down
the hearing peremptorily for Wednesday
morning at 10 o'clock. They ask only prompt
decision on the record a. presented and approved
by Commissioner Spier,-are willing indeed
to submit the whole matter on his report of
the facts there presented, without argument
On the other hand, Britton labors only for
DELAY in the vain hope that change of ad-
ministration in the Attorney Generals office
will afford opportunity for political intrigue,
which may procrastinate the matter until his
term is out.
While the RefOrmers are content to submit
the record alone and their counsel will doubt
less contine themselves to q statement of the
facts presented therein, there are considera
tons which ought properly to be urged on
the Governor as valid reasons why be
should remove Mr. Brtton from the
District Attorneyship. We ha before
asserted as o new indictment of Mr.. Britton,
that be obstructs reform in city whose best
men have been laboring for two years to
secure relief from misrule, and have declared
that this fact alone warrants the Governor in
the exercise of his power of removal. Let us
name case or two which will illustrate our
meaning.
At the election in November. 1871, at which
Mr.. BrittOn WAS returned AZ District Attorney,
and by the same fraudulent vote that he re-
ceived, c. A. Sprague was chosen City Treas
urer. Two weeks after he went into
office, - q careful report Of William
K. Warren. public accountant, clearly

with a chivalrous resolution he went back to
his duty-and that is all we know Of his fate.
An experienced traveller, man Of quiet de-
meanor and scrupulously correct life, he was
not one to invite attack or to expose himself
rashly to accident How he disappeared from
the steamer upon which he embarked for Ia-
vana is secret which will probably never be
known till the sea gives up its dead and the
hearts of men are Land open.
We shall not rashly infer that Ralph Keller
came to his end through foul play, merely be-
cause we know not how else to account for
his disappearance. But it is certain that he
saw reason to apprehend violence that he
had learned to dstrust the evilminded and
rufianly vagabonds who are the curse of Cuban
cities and that all his recent letters were
written under the dread that he might not be
alive to dispatch them. Another correspondent,
whose lonely ride along the coast from Havana
to Bahia Honda we chroniced the other day,
sought refuge from unfriendly villagers by
going on board Spanish vessel Of war 1t
is clear that a foreigner who travels in Cuba
at this time, though he may meet with courtesy,
must face danger and a correspondent who
asks questions, and prizes into secrets, and
treads upon delicate ground at every step is
of all men the most exposed TO mOlestaton.

Caroline Rchngs Bernard has recently organized. made
it's rst appearance In New York last night stenwsy
Hall. Ii consists OF 26 persons including pianist
performer the cabinet-organ, and q performer on
that little known and not very agreeable instrument,
the ssXophonc. All appear in ancient costum OF the
most pronounced and vsriegated character, with
powdered wigs and mammoth fans. and snuf boxes and
other amusing properties, and Mr.. Pierre Bernard
especially who oliciates conductor Is arrayed in
rig which defes rivalry and battles description. The
musical exercises are interspersed and accompanied
with an abundance Of more or less comical by-play
which verges too far upon broad burlesque perhaps
TO satisfy an eIscting tasts, but seemed ct
any rate last night to afford the audience
great deal OF entertainment. The singing with

THE SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT

The idle reader who amuses himself for an
hour or two over tho pages OF his newspaper,
or the hurried man Of business who runs his
eve ND and down the crowded columns while
he ia waiting for his breakfast, little thinks
of the pains and cost and sometimes deadly
risk with which the journalist collects his
daily budget of intelligence. Not only in
every ward of the great city, in every town
of the United States, but in all the countries
of Europe, in trackless deserts, on vexed seas,
and among inhosp itable strangers. the CORE
spondent and the reporter pursue from day to
day their difficult duty. They are found in
the heat of the battlefield; they sail with
discovery ships into tho frozen Arctic; they
follow the police into the haunts of crime and
scenes of violence; they travel in disguise
through hostile cities. At this moment our
special correspondents are marching with o
British army through the African bush, toss
ing with the American navy on the waters of
the Gulf, listening in Cuban cafes to threats
against Americans and menaces OF death TO
the "spies" of the New-York press, and trav-
cling through that disturbed island where at
every step they take their lives in their hands.
We have grown used to such stories of dan
yerOuS adventure, buU tuo JV"'""hos now
a-days takes no more thought OF risk than the
soldier.
How koenly have we been reminded of the
duties of our profession by the mysterious loss
of ono Of the most accomplished and con-
scientious of tho correspondents who have
served us during these last anxious weeks in
the island of Cuba. Mr.. Keller was we'll
aware, when he left Newly York. of the nature
of the mission for which he had volunteered.
He appreciated, better even than we did, its
difficulties and its dangers. He was not q
man, however, to shrink from duty which
he had once assumed. Having UNDER
taken tho task, it was point of honor
with him to perform it as perfectly
az his abilities would permit. At San
tiago he became conscious OF spies logging
his footsteps, and suspicious and unfriendly
eyes watching all his actions. He passed two
nights on board tho Juniata, under the pro-
lection of the United States flag. He might
have remained with the ship and come home
in her. But this seemed to him like desertion
while his Y0Ik in Cuba was unfinished q
