yer Charlick and Hugh Gardner had re-
signed, and that George II. Matzell, the

Tammany Prefers Charges Against Mayor
Havemeyer.
A delegation representing the Tammany
Hall council Of political reform, composed
of eminent lawyers and citizens, called upon
Governor Dix to-day at his residence on
Long Island, and preferred charges against
Mayor Havemeyer OF maladministration,
and submitted documents in support of the
charges.
The Governor took the papers, promising g
he would give the matter immediate atten.
ton, and assuring the delegation that they
might rely upon prompt action. He stated
that the law required him to furnish the
mayor with copies of the charges, after
which the latter must put in his answer,
and an opportunity will be given him to be
be heard in his own defense. e
The delegation requested the Governor
to suspend the mayor from his Office pend.
| ing the investigation, but received reply
| that he would act with prOmptness and eth
cheney.
One of the memorials rehearses, in a very
compact form, the conviction Of Police
| Commissioners Charlick and Gardner, and
urges that their reappOintment by the
mayor iustiies his removal by the Cover
nor.
| The other memorial recites the report Of
| the Assembly committee on the abuses IN
the street cleaning bureau, and the evi
dence of Irregularities on election day
| taken in the Supreme Court, before Judge
| Donahue; recalls the demand twice made
by the board of aldermen for the re0rgan
ization oflthe police board, and the mayor
promised investigation, and finally refers
| to the conviction and reappOintment OF the
police commissioners.

ness and forgetfulness are also matters of
palliation, not of excuse.
1T is deemed unnecessary to pursue
this train of illustration at greater
length, inasmuch as the facts fully set forth
in this report, in connection with the rules
Of the law governing them are not deemed
to call for further comment.
''It is to be observed, in conclusion. that
with whatever indulgence or commenda-
tion the prevailing spirit which character
lied General Howard's performance Of his
arduous and responsible duties may be re-
garded, it is believed that, in the express
sion of such indulgence or cOmmendstion,
care should be taken to give no sanction,
express or implied, to the manifest viola
tions OF law which this investigation has
brought to light, and which have herein
before been fully commented upon

Communicated

Another Richmond-The Liberal Party.
The White Leaguers and others of that
ilk who desire to stir up storm in the
politics of the State with q view OF seizing
something in the wreck they hope it will
cause are likely to meet with powerful
opponent to their schemes of disorder.
Not only will they have to contend with
the Republican army, but q force which ct
one time in the campaign of 1872 had fair
into the field. Its banners will have no
narrow-mindedl legend indicative of bigotry,
prejudice and hate inscribed upon them,
but its motto will present an invitation to
all the better portion of the opposition to
enlist under them.
Most Of the opponents of the Liberal
party Of 1872 have longed to lay the fat
tering JUNCTION to their souls that it had
died, and even many OF its friends mourned
it's demise. But its long silence was not
that of death, nor even mis- sister sleep, for
the organization has beer kept perfect from
the central committee down. Regular meet
ings have been held and preparations made
to enter in the campaign of 1874 with re-
newed strength and fair hopes.
1t will invite all who are desirous of
securing in the administration of the affairs
of State the services OF honest and able
men, who wish to see a good and econo-
mical government, who desire the unity Of
the best citizens for the common good,
regardless Of former political affiliations or
of race or color, to Join them in securing
such nominations as will secure such re-
suits.
They do not believe that State or national
governments should be in the interest Of
any one class or set of men, to the ex
clusion of all others from it's benefits.
They propose to disturb none of the
questions that have been settled by the
war or by the voice of the majority of the
people of the Union. Equal rights and
equal protection before the law, and &C.
the issues on which they desire to 60 before
the people.
1t will be plainly seen that this estab-
fishes platform broad enough to receive
all who love their State and country, and
strong enough to support them. The De-
mocracy, with its faint of White League.
ism, and other false and ruinous prlnci-
Piles, frightening the people of the country
with its wild canards of false prophets,
has reason to tremble at this sturdy Rich
mond who contronts it. Already the
planters, suffering under the injury the
false Democracy is doing them, are seek
ing relief from the other leaders. Com.
plants of demoralized labor are frequent,
and adhesion Of prominent men is daily
rendered to the Liberal party. NB0m all
sides it is gathering strength, and soon
will be prepared for action.
About the end of the month a call will
issue officially from the central committee
calling on the subordinate organizations to
reassemble and prepare for the election Of
liberal convention.
The party will come to the front as a
party OF progress witd the electricity offree
principles for its artillery and reliance or
its honesty of purpose to secure the suppor,
of the people. Its first flourish of trumpetf
will be the death knell OF the White League

ness gone through with. Following is the

From the well known views of the fore
man Of that jury, and also Of several mem
0ers views, it looks as though the crusa-
ders might be encouraged to renew their
warfare The jury will do well to remem-
Der that the crusade warfare in Henry
county, at the last term there, cost the
people between $4,000 and $40OO--aud no
body was punished! The people Of this
county will not submit to have that game
played here without vigorous protest
against the action Of those who cause the
increase OF taxation without any correspon-
ding benefits.

Society comes out some $500 behind, this

House.
"A new telegraph Office of the Atlantic
4 Pacific company is being established in
this city, in Mitchell & Lynde's block, in
the room formerly occupied by the dead
Pacific Il Atlantic company. A competing
line was much needed here, and we hope
it will be permanent.

" errors in the council proceedings, as pub
lished in the Union this morning. The
proceedings will be found correct in The

man Dunn, named in the Unions report
Have we new alderman among us?
Henry Kroeger. of Davenport, has
been arrested charged with forging bond
which was necessary to secure an agency
of the Grover e. Baker Sewing Machine
Company. He was so overcome by "a sense
of his disgrace, when taken, that he tried
to cut his throat and thus end his lite-but
the knife was taken from him and he was
taken to JAIL
Mr. Charles W. Chopper has resigned
his position as government telegrapher at
K. l. Arsenal, and Mr.. Charles A. Plum
mer, son of Mr.. Thos. Plummer, has been
appointed in his place. Mr.. Cropper left
last evening for New York city, to attend
a course Of medical lectures at Bellevue
| Hospital DR.. Charles Carter, son Of Eli
| jah Carter, will attend the same course.
Frank Brady didn' drive very straight
to-day. He locked one wheel OF his dray
upon the hind wheel of Dr. Truesdale's
buggy, in front of Bengstons drug store
A doctors buggy was of no account to
Frank, and he was going right through it,
and would, had not the DIR. seized Frank S
horse and stopped it. 1t will cost Frank a
new wheel, and perhaps more. Frank s
eyesight is getting poor.
Meyer Wurdeburg, of Davenport, sat
down in front Of |. Dambergers clothing
4 store, yesterday forenoon, faint and sick.
The store contributed dollar to send him
home About o'clock in the evening he
was found in front of kanes stove store
and quite crowd gathered around the
suffering man. Dr. Plummer came along
and pronouncedit bad case of typhoid te-
yer, Overseer of the Poor krell sent him
home in carriage to Davenport.
Our coroner is notorious for never
finding out anything. 1t is past belief
that, with vigorous measures he could not
have arrested and confined and compelled
! to testify, some 90 or 80 men who were
present in Nichols's saloon when the sa-
loon was cleared, and thus learned who
were having hard wor Is on the sidewalk
after they were turned out. The inques,
was, like most others in this county, a
farce. The verdict was that the man came
to his death from being stabbed by some
body-thcy don't know who.
