CHARTER Observation-Disclosures Coe has in
troduced bill in the State Senate restoring
certain provisions in the Brooklyn city char
ter that were abolished in the interest Of
honest government. The fight of the people
of Brooklyn against the municipal ring was
only second in Importance to the fight of the
people of New York against the Tweed regime,
and the victory won on the other side Of the
river was mainly due to the triumph of reform
on this side. The Brooklyn "boss' would
never have fallen If the greater "boss"
in New York had not fallen first The
present Brooklyn city charter was the result
of the success of the reformers. 1t is now
sought to undo the work of reform and to re-
store those provisions of law that gave the
city over to plumber. 1t is said that this "tink-
ering' with the Brooklyn charter is favored
by the very politicians who cry out so Justify
against "charter tinkering'' in the case Of New
| York

"Constitut1onnl Government'' in Spain.
Some time since we had despatch an
nouncing that the new government had d.
rected the Punishment of SeiIor Gorilla, the
Prime Minister of Amadeus. correspondent
of the London Times gives us full particulars
of this event. A picket of constables went to
the house of the ex-Minister, placed him in
arrest and sent him out Of the country ''with-
out the least form of accusation or trial" His
offence was that he had endeavored to
organize the radicals or the old constitu-
tional monarchists and the republicans into q
party of opposition. He made overtures to
Seiior CASTELAR,, who feared that while the
country was in o state Of siege political action
would be unwise, and as for himself, he would
leave Spain. Other statesmen were approached
but with indifferent success Senior Martos
another Minister of Amadeus, shared the
opinions Of CASTELAR,. The government learned
of this movement, arrested Sefior Gorilla aud
ordered him to leave Spain. Senor CASTELAR, will
follow him; and there will be no opposition
to the new reign, simply because opposition
will not be tolerated. Senor Gorilla was never
o republican. We do not understand that he
now belongs to that party. He was men,
Der of what is called the radical" party, who
believed in constitutional monarchy and
was the Minister of Amadeus at the time of the
abdication. When the Republic came into
power he left Spain for Portugal. Any poIti-
cal movement that he would lead would look
not to republic, but to constitutional mon
archy.
The fact that statesman so eminent and
with principles so much in harmony with
those expressed by the young King in Paris
should be driven out of the country shows
that the leaders of this new usurpation mean
to hold Spain by force. When the Republic
was in power, although it was ignored by
ment it had strength enough to invite every
Spaniard to Spain. 1t recalled even as un-
scrupulous politician as Serrano. In doing
this it is feared that 1t brought upon itself its
dissolution, that those who accepted its cour-
tesy fastened to strike it down. We cannot
believe that any government really represents
the best interests of the people which is not
strong enough to allow constitutional opposi-
ton. If Alfonso is King of Spain by the will
of the Spanish people he can invite Gorilla
and his monarchists, CASTELAR, and his
republicans to unite in any party
organization they please. But the ban
ishment of Senior Gorilla and the probable
Punishment of all who took part in the recent
Republic show the innate weakness of this
monarchy and confirm the judgment we
have always expressed that the accession OF
Prince Alfonso did not mean peace, but a
is that when Spain again enters upon another
revolution the leaders of the movement will
be controlled by purposes as humane and pa
triotic as those OF Salmeron, Figueras and
CASTELAR,.

THE TRANSIT OF VENUS. Young's
account of the observations made by the
American party at Pekin is more favorable
than was at first anticipated. The appearance
of finger shadows between the planets rims,
and the visibility of Venus before the first
contact, as predicted in the HERALD, are
novel features in transit phenomena, although
they may be accounted for by the action of
Venus atmosphere.

of Cuba and returned to Spain. He informs
the inhabitants that the instruction has inter-

fortunes to restore peace, pay the public debt
and maintain the army and navy in an eff
cient condition. This is not pleasant pros

The investigation of Mr. Green began
yesterday before the Law Committee of the
Board of Aldermen. Mayor Hall gave some
miscellaneous testimony, and among other
things was examined as to the nature OF the
HERALD claims, about which Mr.. Green made
so emphatic point in his recent manifesto.
Upon this we have nothing to say, except
that we never discuss our business affairs in
public, and that when Mr.. Green seriously
alleges that the HERALD has one rule
for dealing with the city and another
for dealing with private persons, he shows his
utter ignorance and unftness for his place or
for any place outside of country grocery
store. We shall not discuss our business
rules with Mr.. Green, and so far as his assaults
upon US are concerned we have no feeling but
silent contempt. Mr.. Wales testified that Mr..
Green want Of business and financial train
ing makes him on obstacle to the city's
growth and the good working Of the city
government. Mr.. Wheeler, President of the
Bureau of Taxes, criticised Mr.. Green's man
elaborate charge against the Comptroller,
showing in detail his Encouragement and
folly.
Mr.. Hasldns' concluding charge is worthy
of attention.: -'That the said Andrew II.
Green, by reason of his brusque and vulgar
manners, obstinate, domineering and despotic
character, lack of the instincts Of the gentle
man, total want ofrespect for his equals and
superiors in official station, and his thorough
unftness in financial experience and ability, is
wholly incapacitated as and for the first
financial officer of this great CITY," Mr..
Haskins presents one of the strongest points
made against Mr. Green in the course of this
whole inquiry. The value of the resignation
of Mr.. Van Mort was his refusal to remain in
an Office which placed him in an attitude of
controversy and dissent Mr. Van Mort pre-
I ferred to be gentleman rather than an I'M
| welcome officer. It would be well for Mr.
| Green to follow his example.

The CASE of Coroner Croker against James
o Brien was called in the Tombs Police Court
yesterday? Neither the Coroner nor the ex-
Senator appeared, and the case was dismissed.
Does this mean that there has been an ar
rangement, and that we are 10 hear no more
of the indictment against Croker? Are the
people to understand that citizen can be
killed in broad daylight and no one called
upon TO answer for the crime?

The BEEcHEE case opened new chapter
yesterday. Mr.. Ovington, a leading Brooklyn
merchant, was examined for the defence, as
.he FIRST witness. He told his story simply
enough and was much bothered by the coun-
sci for the plaintiff on cross-examination Mr.
Ovington was neither an able witness like
Mo1lton, nor an eloquent witness Like Tilton.

"a good a quality on the witness stand as eio-

The energy shown by Germany and Eng
land in fitting out expeditions for the North
Pole, and the deep interest taken in the sub
ject by scientific men throughout the world
have not been lost upon the United States
Mr. Disraeli is enough of sentimentalist
in politics to know the value Of
such an achievement If he can point
to his administration and say that he
extended the greatness of England, added
to her renown and her empire, ne will
feel that he has won new title TO the affec-
tions of his countrymen and to enduring
fame. Prince Bismarck naturally wishes
to show the world that the energies
of Germany can be directed to other
things than to preparing for war and
quarrelling with the Pope. At the close
of the Seven Years. War Frederick the Great
began to build new palace. When he was
demonstrated with for spending the money of
an almost exhausted treasury for work OF
luxury he answered that he wished to show
his brother kings that Prussia was not de-
stroyed by the exertions of so many cam
paigns, and that he built his palace as much
for the moral effect on the minds of other
nations as for his own qualification. A senti-
ment of this kind may animate Prince Bis
North Pole as the field for new discoveries
and the advancement OF the German name.
America by the courage and the enterprise
of her sons, has done too much in the North
to sit quietly by while other nations come in
and reap the glory Of her achievements Nat
urally, we feel that if any discoveries are to
be made in America Americans should make
them. This is our continent, and somehow
we feel that it is almost an intrusion for other
nations to quietly plan how they shall dis
cover and annex a portion of it. But if we
stand idly by and spend our time quarrelling
over the "Force bill'' and Louisiana scandals,
the summer will come the other expeditions
Will sail, and when the results are attained
there will be feeling of regret that the glories
won by England and Germany had not been
attained by the United States.
It is due to the administration to say
that the President is anxious to share in the
attempt to discover the North Pole Secretary

officers, have taken an active and prominent
part IN endeavoring to induce Congress to
consent to an expedition But few hours
are left in which anything can be DONE The
cost is small; we have ships and men ready.
A few thousand dollars--a sum General Gar
field would willingly vote for pictures-would
enable us to start on this errand of discovery
as soon as England and Germany. We have
men who have been to the Polar regions and
who are ready to go again. We have gallant
officers burning for an opportunity to dis
tingush themselves, and who would gladly
add the peaceful glores of Arctic dis
covery to the fiercer achievements of our civil
war. Let Congress, then, give the President
the means of fitting out this expedition. Let
it be under the control of the Secretary of the
Navy, and let him put at the head of the
scientific department DR.. Hayes, whose ex-
perience, courage and genius entitle him to
this recognition.

Keeping Bells on Sheen,

Dogs that are disposed to kill sheep know
better. Hence any unusual noise like the
ringing of bell when they are about to at
tack the sheep, frightens them SO that they
abandon their blood>thirsty project r. W.
Hathsson, of Connecticut, writes to the
Country Gentleman as follows:
"The effect of the bells in preventing dam
age to tho sheep by dogs has been we'll proven
in this vicinity the past season. OF fourteen
focks without bells but one escaped; in Eve
fscks with bells on each shoep no damage
was done. Dir. D. Fowler, of Middlefeld
had flock partially beled and lost'but one
sheep, which strayed into another lot,
without bell, and was killed Mr.. A. B.
Coe bought flock and pat it into lot ad-
joining the former, aud soon found two dogs
at work with the forty-ffth sheep. The dogs
belonged within a quarter of mile and
passed Mr. Fowler's sheep in getting into Mr..
Coe's flock. Dogs, after getting the taste of
blood of unbelled sheep, may attack sheep
with bells on !; yet, believe if all the sheep
we're belled troubles from dogs would be very
rare"

But q finer kitten will not be found;
And though it be true as poets sing,

But before could tall one paw from the other.
Somebody took me cut of tho hay,
Carried me miles aEd miles away,
Saying, coolly, II tEouRht that may be,
You'd like a kitten to please the baby"
Please the baby inst think of that
What q horrible fate for a cat!
Mean little wretch. what his mother can SEQ
Lovely in him is a wonder to mel b
BE clutchcd at my throat till gasped in despair,
He jerked at my whiskcrs and pulled at my hair,
He p0ked his fat fingers straight into my eyes,
Aud laughed with delight at my pitiful cries,
Once, when he dragged mo about by the tail,
And nobody came to my sorrowful wall,
gave him n scratch in his face 30 red
And what do you think his mother said -
Beat me. and called me an ugly old cat /!
Called him her lamb, and such nonsense as that.
Now Isheud really like to know,
II there's any reason that you can show,
Why baby, that can only creep aud cry, .fl
Has a hotter right in the world than L? IT,.
I've made up my mind that the case is clear, 90
That il nobody doesn't interfere,
And take me away from that horrible child,
My cruel fortunes will drive me wild
Somebodv surelv'Il find me lying,

Fray say: Here lies an unfortunate kitty,
Who might have lived to be known to fame.

SUGAR CURED HAMs.-A good recipe is
to rub the hams with fine salt and sugar and
lay them in dry place. After five or six
days rub again, putting en- some new salt, as
che old becomes dry and does not penetrate
at the end of eight or nine days apply the
salt again. Use sugar only at the first rub>
Ding Keep the salt on them until tho shank
looks white and the skin draws down tight !;
when this is the appearance the hams arc
ready to smoke.
