influences which can force upon the party
leaders two Objectionable and improper NOM
nations out of ten can be dangerously ex-
erted to sway the administration of justice.
| There are, it is true, good men on both party
tickets. Mr.. Charles F. Sanford, on the
opposition side, studied law with MIR.
William nj. Evarts, who by professional
standing and judicial temperament is
fitted to adorn the bench. On the
Tammany side, Judges Loew and
Spencer have already done honor to the ju-
dietary and proved their capacity and fidelity
while Mr.. Peter b. Olney, who enjoys the
friendship and confidence of Charles OConor
possesses every qualification necessary for
an efficient and useful District Attorney
But Tammany is admittedly a powerful and
growing monopoly over whom it will soon
be difficult for the people to hold check.
The recklessness of the old leaders alone
caused their overthrow. Had they been
more shrewd and cautious they would have
escaped detection and ruled the city with an
iron hand to-day. The mistakes of the
present ruler of the organization may
cause his downfall and that of his sub
ordinate chiefs. His self-will and obstinacy
have damaged Mayor Wickhams administra-
ton, when it might have been
success if left wholly under the Mayors
control. The same qualities which prompted
the attempt to drive Recorder Hackett
from the Bench have rendered highly prob
able the defeat of the Tammany judicial
ticket. But when John Kelly falls, which we
suppose will be in about three years. another
and it may be more dangerous leader will
rise up in his place. Under cautious, cum
ming and unscrupulous Tammany ruler
the New York city government may become
in the future as much an imperial despotism
as was the Paris government under Napoleon
and Haussmann. Our public works are at
present stagnant. The new Court House
is built although without dome
No great undertakings at present
yield large profit and can be used
as a mighty political power by bold leader.
But in few years we shall have our boule-
wards to extend, our old streets to widen,
our new public buildings to erect, our new
parks to lay out our new bridges to build,
and then we shall again be under the heels
of more prudent and calculating Tammany
Tweeds. 1t may be just as well to give this
overshadowing political organization a check
at this time, and this is the sentiment by
which large majority of the citizens appear
now to be moved

Murder IN Canada.

Canada seems likely to set at Toronto an
example that the world will be more likely
to praise with imitation than the one that
has made 50 much noise at Montreal. In
the former city there recently occurred one
of those cases Of murder that are called
malpractice apparently because they are
supposed to have some relation with sur
gery-and the authorities there actually pro-
pose to hang the man and woman to whom
the offence has been brought home. 1t is to
be hoped that the authorities will not change
their minds, and that none Of the myriad
bubbles Of the law will come between them
and their purpose; for even two executions
in cases of this sort will be salutary. 1t ia
safe to predict that if these Toronto criminals
are actually executed there will not be many
more cases Of this sort Of malpractice in that
city; and this is, of course, the result aimed
at. This is result that the authorities OF
many other cities might well desire TO se-
cure. In this neighborhood the criminal
authorities have often had e. deal with this

Governor Tilden's Letter.

We do not quite understand the necessity
of the letter which Governor Tilden has just
addressed to all the district attorneys of the
State, threatening them with removal if they
fail to prosecute persons who may make an
illegal use Of money in the coming election.
There is no law clothing the district attor-
neys with preventive powers. They cannot
prosecute until after offences have been COM
mitted. The constitution, as amended last
year, subjects district attorneys to removal
if they fail to prosecute any case Of bribsry
which may come to their knowledge but
that article relates only to bribery of Off
GERS, not to the use of money in elections.
The amended constitution has indeed some
excellent provisions on the subject Of Civ
ing and taking money in elections but the
application of remedies does not require anv
action of the district attorneys previous to
the election. A person who has either offered
or received money is subject to challenge at
the polls, and when challenged he is
required to swear to his innocence before his
vote can be received. If he swears falsely he
Is liable to indictment for perjury, but the
District Attorney has nothing to do with the
offence until it has been committed. Another
still better provision is that which requires
officers to swear, before entering on their
duties, that they have neither directly nor
indirectly paid or promised money to infu-
ence voters. A false oath by officers is also

the Fourn Hand Club makes II imperative that each
member shall drive his own team and although there
not quite much skill displayed in the manage
ment OF the leaders as may have been with the

been as much in the leaders as the drivers.

ExpeditiOn.

We have received communication from
the proprietor of the London Teleqraph ex-
planning the circumstances under which a
premature publication of the substance of
Mr. Stanley's African letters was made in an
editorial in that paper in violation
of its agreement with the HERALD
The editorial in question, we are informed
was written and published in the absence of
the proprietor and through misunderstand-
ing ON the part of the writer. In matter
of so much importance as the African expe-
dition, involving joint interests and from
which intelligence might be received
at any moment, we had q right to
expect that the possibility of such an occur
renee would have been carefully and effect
ually guarded against. We are not sur
prised, therefore, that the propri-
etor OF the Telegraph while expressing
his regret at the unfortunate over
sight, should fully justify the comments
made by the HERALD on the appearance Of

explanation as satisfactory and acquit him of

LONDON, September l6.-A Madrid
correspondent Of the Times summaries
the circular Of the Papal Nuncio to the
Bishops, as follows: The NunciO claims
the iilGllment Of the COncordat, which
forbids the exercise OF any nOn.CatholiC
creed; requires the transfer Of the super
intendence over education to the clergy,
and pledges the cooperation Of the sec.
ular power In suppressing heretical teach
ing and literature. lie says: one Of the
causes Of civil war Is the way IN which
religious unity has been misunderstood
by previous governments. For these
reasons, In view Of these consequences,
the Holy See believes itself strictly Oblig.
ed to present these observations to the
Government.
The Times correspondent adds;
mo doubt the presentation Of this au.
daciOus claim, at a time when q liberal
Cabinet has Just been installed, implies q
threat that If the Government reject, the
blessing Of the Church will be definitely
transferred 10 Don Carlos, and peace re.
