THE NEW OHIEF OF POLICE.

The election of Capt. VIM. F. Loan to the
important position of Superintendent of Po-
lice, v;ce Gen. A. S. Badger, resigned, has
created very little comment, as it has been
pretty generally understood in official circles
that he would be the successful applicant.
Inasmuch as the Governor was, no doubt,
determined to select Republican for this
Office, Capt Loan is as good selection
as we could have hoped for, as, SO far as we
know, his personal record is good, and while
partisan he is not violent or unreasonable
one.
He has it at least now in his power to make
good record for himself, and by his own acts
must he stand or fall We shall judge him
fairly, willing to concede him at the outset
honesty of purpose and determination to
make the police force what it should be, a
protection for the life and property Of citizens.
instead of what it has been, menace to our
liberties and an intolerable incubus.
Let Capt. Loan exhibit zeal and indie
pendence; let him see that the police are
used for legitimate police duty only; let him
in short do his duty. and he will find that the
BULLETIN, though opposed to him politically,
will, at all times, accord him justice and
praise.

The Supplemental Funding Bill.
Why Is It Not Signed

The Governor in his message to the Legis-
lature at its extra session recommended ''that
the funding law be amended in such manner
as will enable the officers Of the State and all
taxpayers and creditors of the State to resist
the funding of any illegal evidences of debt by
adducing evidence to establish their invalid
character"
The Legislature accepted the recommends
ton and passed bill in accordance there
with. The act was duly enrolled and for
warded to the Governor day or two after
adjournment, and it has been in his possess
sion ever since. He has not as yet signed it.
He is considering it. bill of this kind re-
quires consideration, and the Governor is
determined to give it all it requires.
Seriously, this bill ought to be signed at
once, as, until it is, there will undoubtedly be
an effort to fund questionable securities.

EFT TU BRUTE.

"There is tide in the affairs of men"-
even though perchance they be distillers,
and now, judging from the late Washington
dispatches, Cincinnati has failed to take hers
at the food. It is but few short months
ago, when, under cover of the night valiant
band of Internal Revenue officers stole
stealthily down upon some four or five of the
principal distilleries in the neighborhood OF
our city, and, to the surprise of the owners as
we'll as the general community, summarily
seized and closed their doors.
The facts of this midnight adventure must
still be fresh in the memory Of our readers,
and it was generally thought that the whole
movement was ruse de guerre on the part OF
Cincinnati distillers to raise the price OF their
manufactures, and as it had the intended
effect, it is probable the surmise was correct.
The establishments here have been closed
since their seizure and our Western friends
have had the field to themselves. Now, how
ever, owing either to the cupidity of some
government official greedy for proffered re-
ward, or the treachery of a manufacturer, who
would not be satisfied with ordinary profits
but went in for government porridge, their
game has been exposed.
The old pastoral adage "that it's long
lane that knows no turning is fully verified
in the late whisky crusade on the part of In
ternal Revenue officials against the Western
distillers. Their keen enjoyment Of the
cessation of business here has been turned to
sour melancholy, and they are now realizing
what it is to be toyed with by the detectives
of our great country. Hsc dim maenainisst

Metropolis arrived at Ductchesland Harbor,
Narragansett Bay, at 8 o'clock this morning.

schooner Harriet s. Brooks, which supplied
her with provisions and towed her in.
Capt. Ellis reports that on the 26.h ult he

rienced o succession of heavy northwest
gales, and since that time has been driven

A Cool PLAcE.-With desire to render his
theater as comfortable as possible during this
warm season, Mr.. Bidwell, the proprietor of
the AGA lemy of Music, has erected q large
fountain in the center of the parquette, which
will be kept constantly playing during the
entire performance. Not only will this be a
beautiful sight, but the cool, invigorating
freshness it will impart will be decided
pleasure to the patrons of the theater. This
improvement was inaugurated last night, on
the first appearance of Aymar's South Ameri-
can Circus troupe. The large steam fan Of
the tn alter was also put in operation last
night, keeping up a continuous current of
cool air. This, together with the fountain,
will make the Academy one OF the coolest re-
treats in the city.

We had the pleasure yesterday of call
from Capt. James B. Eads, who was accom-
panied by our fellow-townsman, G. W. R.
Bsyley, Esq, We found the great contractor
and civil engineer, whose name, like the first
gun fred at Lexington, has been heard round
the world, modest, unassuming, but thor
oughly earnest man, who not only means to
build the jetties, but intends to succeed in
giving us deep water.
In his vocabulary there is evidently emo
such word as fail" and we confess that few
moments conversation with him has done
more to convert us to belief in the praeti-
cability of his theories than any amount of
writing and talking with other people could
have done.
To the mind of this indefatigable worker
and thinker the problem of removing the bar
from the mouth of the Mississippi problem
which has staggered the brightest minds and
most able engineers for more than half GEN.
tury-is as simple as childs sum in arith-
metic, and it must be admitted by even the
most pronounced advocates Of the canal pro-
ject that his explanations are not only very
lucid but quite incontrovertible.
So far as we are concerned we cheerfully
enroll ourselves among the enthusiastic ad.
vocates of the jetties. We have always be-
lieved in their superiority over the canal, if
they could be made success; we..now be-
heve that they will be made success, and
that to Capt Eads, not only New Orleans,
but all the great and growing valley washed
by our inland sea, and all the vast country
tributary thereto, will owe q debt Of lasting
gratitude.
When we consider how many years we
have borne with this seemingly insurmount-
able and really blighting obstacle to our
commerce; when we reflect that but for this
obstruction at the mouth of the river, New
Orleans would have, We'd with New York in
commercial prosperity and importance; and
when we consider, too. that while We have
been dormant-content to groan and sweat
under our infliction - that other countries
have been overcoming precisely similar
difficulties by this very jetty system; it almost
seems that we have been under spell such
~ tied up the faculties of old Rip Van Wrinkle,
and that we have but just awakened from q
perturbed dream. Our sleep has cost US un-
told millions-let us now be up and doing.
let us give all possible aid to Capt Eads, and
at the same time push forward a railroad to
Texas or Shreveport.
The end of bad government is at hand, and
the tide of prosperity is about to set in. Let
us be careful to take it at its flood, SO that we
may be borne rapidly on to that fortune,
which. like an ignas .fat,ras, has SO persistently
eluded us in the near past.

THE CENSUS.

We learn with sincere regret that some OF
our people are not only very Negligent IN
making up their returns for the census-takera,
but are endeavoring, by all means in their
power, to impede the progress OF the work.
This We deem very improper. Just or I'M
Just, it is now fixed fact that the census is
10 be taken, and it behooves us, in justice to
ourselves, to render as speedy and complete
returns as possible.
The result of this census is Of vital impor-
lance to u.s. as it will be the one by which the
next election will be conducted; and if we
fail to give it that earnest and Jealous atten-
ton it is so worthy of, we must abide the
consequences of our own carelessness.
There is no hidden design in this law, it is
not for the purpose Of obtaining true list
Of taxpayers and their taxable property, nor
il it with view of obtaining future jury lists;
It is simply and solely what it purports to be-
Q census.
If we, the white people of the State, in
lieu of making full and correct returns, make
none at al, or at best butimperfect and vague
ones; if we fail to extend that assistance and
courtesy to the officers of the law which we
should do, the result, if it be detrimental to
US. is clearly chargeable to us alone, and the
burden of the fault must be borne by those
who failed to promptly comply with the pro-
visions of law which can, by their aid, be
made Of equal value to them as to their politi-
cal opponents.
The voters of the Radical party will of q
surety lose no time in enrolling in their ranks
MI whose credentials are properly certified,
and shall we rather seek to diminish our own
power by futile protests than labor to increase
it by the prompt enlistment of all our force
The requirements are but small-a blank list
is lett at our homes, with the request that we
ill it as required as soon as we can, and rem
der as clear an account under it as we can in
Justice do. This done the labor is all accom-
plished.
The result is, in a measure, in our hands,
and let us hasten favorable ending by all
honest means at our command. If we fail by
our own negligence, we shall deserve all the
evil results which must perforce follow. Then
Let us aid as best we can the officers Of the
Law in accomplishing their labors, and the
end will certaily be OF more advantage to us
than if we remain supinely idle, while our
opponents reap the full benefit Of the law.
In this connection we deem it proper to
advise the census-takers to be as active as
they can in getting in their returns. We
know instances where blanks were left at
houses several weeks ago, and have not yet
been called for. The officers should lose no
time in collecting these returns, and after
allowing reasonable time should not fail to
call for the completed lists.

EXTRAORDINARY ENDURANCE OF STEAM
SHIP.

PROVIDENCE, R. l., May 12.-Oapt. Ellis, of
the steamship Metropolis, reports that when
q few days out from Bermuda the coal gave
out, and the rolling of the steamer broke
some of her steampipes and started bolts.
The steamer could not carry sail enough to
give her good steerage, and in this unman-
ageable condition she drifted about in the
toughest sea that Capt. Ellis ever saw
She was driven across the Gulf Stream and
passed through hail storm of almost unpre-
cedented violence. The steamer sprung no
leak, and is sound and seaworthy in spite of
her rough usage. The supply Of meat gave
out about ten days ago, and since that tho
bill of fare has consisted mainly Of potatoes
and oniOna
