A few years ago the very expression, ''steam
lanes, was unknown. 1t has now passed into
maritime parlance, and steam lanes are
reality. Yet there is no stringent police of
the SEAS no absolute law which requires
steamer to follow an accurately defined track,
as the railway locomotive keeps always to
its rail-that is, when the engineer is not too
enterprising. What we demand is that there
should be more rigorous police of the seas,
and that they should no longer constitute
''the trackless ocean," but that an interna-
tional marine empire should be founded, in
which routes Of travel should be as closely fol-
lowed as on the land England, France Hol-
land, Germany and the United States could
establish steam lanes by little patient and
humane effort. Now is the proper season to
take the initiative The British Parliament
is in session, Congress is in session and
the interchanging streams of transatlantic
travel are beginning to drain either continent
of valuable lives. The charts Of Maury, the
logbooks of the different steamship lines and
the activity and intelligence Of the Signal Ser
vice Bureau could easily indicate the exact
course that would be at once safe and free from
violent cyclones and to southwark of the ice
bergs. 1t is estimated that one hundred thou
sand Americans visit Europe annually.
Among them are thousands OF tmid women
and children. II this large class could
know that there is law which compels a
steamship to keep to definite course, pro-
hibiting it from diverging therefrom in ODE
dlence to mercenary or other considerations,
travel would undoubtedly increase and safety on
the sea would be rendered almost certainty.
We thank those lines that have already adopted
our suggestions, and we hope that legislation
and negotiation will at no distant day render
steam lanes obligatory.

The Lenten Season or Music,

The season which, in q religious point of
view, is supposed to be especially devoted to
penitential exercises, has this year been un-
usually prolific of music. We have had opera
in every shape and language, from the fash
ionable loges of the Academy to the dingy pre-
cincts of the Stadt. In Italian opera the
metropolitan public has enjoyed the most
brilliant performances ever known in this
city, with Mme Christine Nilsson, Signor
Campanlni and the other artists of the
Strakosch troupe, and in the production Of
'Lohengrin'' the climax Of success was
reached, so far as the management is con-
cerned. This week new feature will be
added to this company in the person of Nine.
Pauline Lucca, who makes her first appear
ance this evening in her best r6le, Leonora, in
'Ia Favorita." Notwithstanding the mani
fold attractions of the Italian OPERA the Sc

The OLD STORY AT ALBANY-The Supply
bill is before the State Legislature, and the
usual amount of picking and stealing ap-
pears to be in order. Messengers who have
been hanging about the houses without
authority step forward and request pay for
their services lazy doorkeepers ask for in
creased remuneration the leeches who suck
the blood of the State, session after session,
are all busily at work, and, Of course, they
find some kind-hearted member who is liberal
with the public money to advocate their i'm
pudent demands At the same time holder
attempts at stealing are not lacking, and it
appears probable that the Supply bill Of this
year will be fully as prodigal and corrupt as
any of its predecessors.

Street Distractions and tho Permit
Bureau,

The Board of Aldermen recently passed on
ordinance which abolishes the"Permit' Bureau
in the Mayors Office, repeats ''all ordinances
or parts of ordinances which impose penalty
or penalties for obstructing the streets and
sidewalks, and discontinues all proceedings in
relation to such penalties. But the Commits
sioner of Public Works is authorized and di-
rected to prevent any obstruction OF the said
streets and sidewalks. The Permit Bureau is,
no doubt, nuisance and capable of being
made a corrupt one as WELL 1t should be
abolished and what the law pronounces an
obstruction" should not be permitted by the
license of the Mayor or of any other authority
The rights of owners and occupants and of the
public are clearly defined and easily under
stood. Every owner or occupant has q
right to receive and deliver goods from the
road across the sidewalk into his store and to
use the road and sidewalk for that purpose in
a reasonable manner. The public, however,
has right to free and unobstructed travel,
and hence no unreasonable use can be made
of the streets by individuals to the obstruction
of travel. The Aldermen, by repeating all
penalties for unduly obstructing the streets,
in fact remove all restrictions and allow the
streets to be INSTRUCTED with impunity. To
be sure they say that the Commissioner Of
Public Works, who already has quite enough
on his hands, shall prevent such obstruc-
tons, but how is he to do it? 1t is like abol-
ishing all punishment for stealing, but de-
claring that the police may prevent rob-
berry. Besides, to authorize the Public Works
Department. or any other department., to
prevent distractions without any law or
ordinance to define in what manner it is to
be done, would be to give the department an
unlimited and discretionary power, and would
compel the organization of force as large
as that of the police.
The Assistant Aldermen seem disposed to
exercise common sense in this matter. They
have referred the ordinance to committee,
and will, no doubt, either reject it or consider
ably alter its provisions. Let them abolish the
Permit Bureau if they will; but the present
penalties for obstructing the sidewalks wilfully
and needlessly should not be repealed. Every
business man or storekeeper charged with OBJ
structing the street has now fair trial, and
the courts do not decide harshly on such
cases. Remove these restrictions and penalties,
and the roads and sidewalks would soon be-
come impossible The people are enough
troubled with distractions as it is

The STORM OF YESTERDAY. Yesterday morn
ing's weather predictions notified US to ex-
pect snow and rain in this section of the
country, and they duly put in tLeir appear
ance, This squirt of snow is one of those
exceptional freaks of the weather which
is wont to spring upon us, especially
during the rapid equinoctial changes. The
storm appears to have been widespread and
the rainfall to have covered all the Western
States bordering on the Ohio and Mississippi
rivers. This watering of the country will
doubtless be appreciated by the agricultural
interests, which are benefited by it. The
cold which attended it has been too early to
hurt the fruit trees, which have not vet been
sufficiently developed by the season to suffer,
and the effect will be beneficial to them
by retarding their blossoning The storm.

The IRREpREssrBLE WHALLEY.-Chief JUS
tice Cockburn committed an unfortunate
blunder in arresting and ining Mr. Whalley
for contempt of court. But judges cannot al
ways control their temper, and the little of
that rare quality which Cockburn possessed
was overtaxed in the Tichborne case Had
the Judge to deal with less belicose person
than the unconquerable champion of civil and
religious liberty he might have wriggled out
Of the breach Of privilege which he
committed in sending member of
Parliament to prison. But Whalley
is not to be appeased; that doughty
champion has had his feelings outraged, and
nothing less than the scalp or wig Of the Chief
Justice will satisfy him. The lawyer endeav-
ored by a sharp device to have his action APP
proved by Parliament before Whalley could
open his civil and religious batteries on the
Bench, but the maneuvre failed, and the re-
doubtable Whalley has given notice that he
will bring his case before the House of Com
mons in person. A very nice point Of privi-
lege is involved, and Chief Justice may be
obliged to eat humble pie. But whatever the
issue may be the encounter will be full OF

prepared fer US Already in the first collision
OF interest or opinion the ultimate result seems
clear; but we shall be wise if we henceforth
view national politics with regard mainly to
the relations between the West and the old

selves, in whose interest solely hereafter it
would seem the laws are to be made

VOICES FROM HOME. The reports we print
elsewhere as to the condition of trade in New
York are only so many arguments against the
unfortunate spirit of imitation which seems to
pervade Congress. Although there is every rea-
son why there should be unusual activity in
trade, abundant demand in the markets and an
increase of industry and commerce, we see in
all directions the results Of imitation. There
is on uncertainty about all business interests
that makes any genuine business impossible.
What we see now only presages the evils to
come unless wisdom resumes her sway in
Congress and legislation becomes honest and
patriotic and expressive of the best interests
of the country.

The MASSACHUSETTS SENAToRsHIP. There
is some probability that the election of Sena-
tor for Massachusetts will be decided
by the democrats, as the hostile fac
tons among the republicans have de-
clared war to the knife. The sorehead
republicans and the democrats could
row decide the election by a coalition,
and there seems good reason to suppose that
such a fusion will take place on moderate
republican. The chances of the administra-
ton candidate are not promising. So far only
ninety-fve votes have declared for Dawes,
while one hundred and thirty-eight are neces-
sary for choice,

musical attractions. And Easter brings stilJ
greater promise in the announcement of the
first appearance of Mile lima di Muraka at
the Academy. New York has now become an
entrep6f Of lyric art and may claim equality
with, If not precedence of, any Of the boosted
operatic centres Of Europe. Certainly our
seasons programme is larger and of more
artistic value than anything that can be shown
on the other side of the Atlantic.

SERRANo AND THE CARLIsTs. The actions
before Bilbao have evidently not been SO fa-
vorable to the republican forces as was repre-
scented at Madrid. The Carlists still hold
their position before the town, and may defeat
all efforts TO relieve it. They have evil
IDENTIFY checked the advance Of Ser
ramos army, and unless reinforcements
are sent forward the effort to pierce
the lines may fail. Should the republican
army retreat the effect on the defenders Of
Bilbao would, in all probability, be SO de-
moralizing as to prevent further resistance.
The immediate effect Of surrender would be
extremely serious for Spain, and would lead
to the indefinite prolongation of the war.

Too Coed, we fear, to be True

l.. The New York Herald states that Il
rumor is ailoat in Washington that before
the laIsc Of many days, a Republican
member OF the House will-submit to that
body,a somewhat bold aud startling pro-
position for The relief of the Southern
States from their present disheartenipg
financial embarrussmcnts. This PROPOSE
tion it is said, will be to advance to the
Southern States several hundred millions
OF cash, or its equivalent, and partly in
consideration Of the heavy losses suffered
by the Southern States in the loss; ot their
slave property. This will not be very
dlsagrccable information to the Southern
planter who is contemplating the for
midable balance against him on the debit
side Of his factors account. The South
crn people were robbed of their slave
property, and it would be only justice TO
make good the losses sustained Ey reason
OF their spoliation. The Herald thinks
that "of course there is 10 hope Of the
success of any such scheme this side of
the Presidents election of 1S76,' but
evidently thinks there is something in
the movements, for il goes on to say:
But suppose you have an ambitious
Republican or two intent upon new
departure for 1876, you will proccive that
in gaining the good will Of the South,
through the proposition suggested, the
Republican leading oil in this movement
will secure some capital 10 build upon.
II seems to be understood here that n
powerful bolt from tic Administration
party is bound TO be made for the cam
pnign of 1876, and so if some leading
Republicans during this scss on of Con
grcss shall lead off i'll some movement for
The Southern vote not set down in the
Administration programme, You need
not he surprised"
