A Note OF Warning.

The enemies Of Tammany industriously
spread abroad the charge that John Kelly
desires to pack the criminal, prosecuting
and judicial Offices in the city with his own
favorites for some Interior object. No one
pretends that Mr. Kelly is likely to commit
an offence that will bring him within the
reach Of district attorney, recorder or police
magistrate but it is alleged that he desires
to control the machinery of justice for the
purpose of increasing his political power,
and such an ambition is inconsistent with
the public good.
If Mr.. Kelly should refuse to renominate
Recorder Hackett for the judicial position
he has filled so satisfactorily he will give
color and warrant to this damaging accusa-
ton. The democrats have perfect right to
nominate q District Attorney from their own
ranks in place Of the incumbent of that
Office, because Mr. Phelps is republican,
and if the democratic nominee is an accept
able man he will be entitled to the support
Of his party. But they have no right to
throw Recorder Hackett overheard, because
he is democrat and has won honors for
himself and has reflected credit on his party
by the manner in which he has discharged
the duties of his Office. The question is not
whether the person nominated on the demo-
cratic ticket in place OF Judge Hackett would
or would not make a good Recorder. A re-
form democracy has no right to drive from
the Bench Judge Of proved fearlessness and
integrity, especially at time when crime
is as rampant as it now is. Such an act
would be full Of evil consequences, both in
its dispiriting effect on the Judiciary and the
encouragement it would give to the criminal
classes AS a party movement it would be
fatal for it would confirm the story that
the criminal courts are hereafter to be used
as political power by the Tammany leaders,
and would arouse the people Of New York
to the defeat Of the Tammany nominee.

1t seems to be taken for granted among the
evangelical clergymen Of this vicinity that
the coming abors Of Mr.. Moody and his CO
adjutor, Mr. Sankey, in this country are to
be followed by generous outpouring of the
Holy Spirit, through the influence Of which
sinners are to be brought out from the dark
ness Of the byways and hedges into the glori-
Gus light Of the Gospel highway. The pulsa-
ton Of quiet yet eager expectation is every
where perceptible, and many Of the more
prominent clerymen are preparing the minds
and hearts of their hearers for a participa-
ton in the great work. 1t is q hopeful
sign that the pastors Of the regular
churches are realizing that there cannot be
too many instrumentalities at work for the
spread Of the Christ spirit among men, and
that instead Of the cold, captious spirit with
which the evangelist or reyiyalist has here
tofore been met among the more cultured,
the true meaning and end Of his work is 50
much better understood that he now meets
with q hearty godspeed upon almost every
hand. Among the more prominent Of these
pastors who discoursed upon this theme yes
terday were President Porter, Of Yale Col
lege, and Mr.. Beecher, who treated the sub
ject much in the same spirit, encouraging the
movement and answering the arguments Of
its opponents.
Mr.. Moody himself preached one Of his
characteristic sermons at Mortified, where
his labors seem to have been abundantly
blessed. Already his influence is felt
throughout the land, and everywhere CO.
laborers are springing up to aid
him in his great work The latest
example Of this is found in an
apostle to the railroad men, whose &C.
cupation is such as shuts them off from the
means Of grace to large extent He adj
dresses them in their own vernacular, and,
while we do not wish to reflect on them as a
class, it is to be presumed little reforma-
ton among them would do no particular
harm.
Mr. Moody, it seems has not yet decided
where will be the scene Of his next labors.
1t will, however, DO in Brooklyn or Phila-
delphia, both Of which cities arc laying
4 claim to his immediate services.

wlrfeh attracted 50 much attention in our
pulpits yesterday the subjects discussed

think was a revival Of the eyangeii-
cal sort At ST. Andrews church DIR.
Curan preached on @The ImmntabilIty
of the Catholic Church, which, as he stated,
relates to the doctrines taught by Christ and
handed down by His apostles. Father Hayes

A Serious Blunder.

Judge Pershing, of Pennsylvania, is un-'
ming for Governor as ''reformer." If b is
elected it will be on the theory that the gov
eminent of Pennsylvania is so corrupt that'
it needs an honest man to reorganize it, YET
Judge Pershing, although candidate for o.
political Office now holds high judicial
station. In response to the natural inquiry
of a reporter, published i'll another journal,
as to whether he thought of resigning his
place on the Bench, the Judge said that he
would not do so unless it was necessary to
defend his character from assault" Now,
in our easy manner of conducting affairs in
America, we have been careless about the
Bench. In New York it has been
proper for judges to take part i'll
political conventions, to preside over
primary meetings, to 90 great many
things which are inconsistent with a careful
administration of justice, Judge Pershing.
by remaining upon the Bench, may plead
hundred presidents, but the whole matter is
wrong. If he were a conscientious reformer
hewould have shown his fidelity by throwing
up his commission as Judge when he ac-
cepted the nomination as Governor. 1t
would be much better plan if our judges
were to adopt the rule that they would under
no circumstances run for any Office while
they sit on the Bench Since Judge Per-
shing did not take that supreme and noble
step let him do what is next best-resign his
position as Judge, and not drag the ermine
through the mire Of political canvass.

The Time for Action.

The Board Of Apportionmont will soon be
called upon to fix the amounts necessary for
the expenses Of conducting the various depart
monts Of the city government for the ensuing
year There has been a large and apparently
an uniustifable increase in the expenditures
Of some Of the departments within the last
fifteen years. The Comptroller's Office in
especial has grown to be enormously OK
travapant In 1860, under Mr. Ia Yves as
Comptroller, the Finance Department cost
under ninety-four thousand dollars. In
1864, under Mr.. Brennan, it cost one hun
drcd and forty-eight thousand dollars. In
1868, under Connolly, it cost two hundred
and seven thousand dollars. In 1870 1t cost
about the same, and in 1874, under Mr..
Green, it cost three hundred and six thou
sand dollars Thus in fourteen years the
expense Of keeping tho city accounts has
more than trebled, or hes increased by The
amount of two hundred and twelve thou
sand dollars Other departments are open
to similar criticism. The Board Of Appor-
tionment should apply the pruning knife at
once and with frmness. The estimates Of
the departments should be cut down one
half from thobe Of last year, and the city gov
eminent should be compelled 70 exercise the
same econom1 in the management Of its
business as is ptactised by q business man,.

TIE CHIEF INFLAT1oN ORGAN in Ohio the
Cincinnati Enquirer, has within . few days,
renounced its aggressive indationism and
declared that ''too much money would be
almost as great on evil as too little" This
sudden change Of front is 50 remarkable that
we insert the passage:-
"Uuimited imitation" IS the term poScd al the demo
Gratis OF Ohio when .repudatiun fails to scare sum
GENTLY Nobody proposes unlimited imitation. Too
much money would be almost great m evil too
little The main thing Is to stop forced specie rcsump-
ton and Contraction and do away with the national
bank monopoly A vote for william Allen means
precisely this.
Full discussion having produced this great
change in the very citadel Of imitation, we
think the result Of the Ohio craze will be
healthful and salutary. Besides forcing the
republican party to renounce and oppose in
faton, it has drawn out such declarations
from the democracy Of other States as render
il impossible for the democratic party to be
united on tho Ohio platform, and constrains
the Ohio democrats themselves to make q
change Of base on the eve Of the
election.
