that bathing is impossible and that the
people of New Utrecht propose to mount
cannon and sink the garbage scows. We
are inclined to approve the New Utrecht
proposition. Coney Island is one of the
features of New York. 1t is not fashion
able place. 1t lacks the splendor of other
resorts. There are many clam saloons, and
now and then we hear of rowdyism. But
Coney Island is blessing to thousands of
the poor, who find on its beach their only
bathing ground. 1t is within an hour of the
City Hall. 1t may be reached at all times,
and although it does not grow into fashion
able Importance it does grow in popularity.
AS our government is for the poor as well as
for the rich it should take hold of Coney
Island and put an end to this garbage
dumping business. If the authorities fail
then let our New Utrecht friends bring out
their cannon. In such cause Providence
will take sides with the artillery.

Senator to rise and ask, in the name of the
republican organization. "What has a repub-
lican as honored as Mr. Jewell done that he
should be subjected to a gross indignity?"
The Senate quietly confirms Tyner. Jewell
takes his kicking without a murmur and
Grant goes along in his work. He says he
will have 'none but friends about him"
The party is nothing, the administration is
nothing, the public service is nothing, the
self-respect of eminent republicans is moth
ing-all that is to be considered is the Presi-
dents own inscrutable will This is not
republican, and it pains every patriot to see
it under republican form of government.
1t shows that there is no power higher than
the will of the President-that our govern
ment has fallen into much the same position
as Abdul-Aziz and his eunuchs before the
recent Turkish revolution, who did as they
pleased, ignored the people, and gave their
lives to buying parrots and tigers and playing
with the marionettes.
1t is against this anti-republican admins
tration that the anger of the country is
slowly rising. 1t is we'll enough to say that
Hayes is not responsible for Grants acts I;
that Hayes took pains to ignore Grant in his
letter; that the canvass should have no
relation to the administration. The country
will not think SO when it sees Cameron,
Conkling, Morton and the chiefs of the
party surrounding the President and sus-
tanning him in his arrogant assumption of
power. The country will say, and truly,
What confidence can we have in party
whose leaders have no more influence over
the President than harem eunuchs over a
Sultan? They see that the President has
laden these Senators with honors, given
them large share Of patronage, and because
of this they are dumb. All this time the
fair canvass of Hayes and Wheeler darkens.
Mutteiings are heard on all sides. The mass
meeting in New York was conspicuous for
the absence Of the men who give strength to
republicanism in this city. The country
shows o profound dissatisfaction, not with
Grant alone, but with the republican
party, and more especially with the Senate.
1t is well enough for Grant to treat the
party MS sucked orange, but why should
the republican leaders permit it? That is
the astonishing question. If the Senate were
to say "check' to Grant tomorrow, his
game of Cesarism would stop. But no one
has the courage to do So Unless it is
stopped, and the Washington government
shows some respect for the rights of the
people-unless we have IN end of this per-
sonal government-Hayes and Wheeler will
be defeated by as large q majority as Scott
and Graham or Greeley and Brown.

ToMpK1Ss SQUARE is in such terrible con.
dition that the only wonder is that it does
not breed pestilence these hot summer days.
1t has been in this condition long time,
and still there is no telling when this once
beautiful pleasure ground will be re-
stored to the people. The story which
we print in relation to it almost
exceeds belief, and yet the Park Commits
sioners allow the park to remain week after
week and month after month in a condition
which attests their own incompetency fol
their positions. The park is now an eye-
sore and nuisance, and must not be al.
lowed to remain in its present condition
much longer.

BELMONT IN REPLY TO SroUcHroN
print spirited and sarcastic letter from Mr..
August Belmont, provoked by passage in
Mr.. Stoughton's recent speech at the repub-
lican ratification meeting The banker
seems TO have the advantage of the lawyer,
at least in this case, although the profession
of the latter, in which he is so eminent. has
given him long training as a controversialist
Mr.. Stoughton incautiously ascribcd to Mr..
Belmont language respecting Governor Til
den that he had never used, which not only
iustifies Mr.. Belmont in publishing MS tart
contradiction, but furnishes him an occasion
to declare his support of Tilden and ex-
press his strong admiration of the St. Louis
platform. If Mr.. Stoughton should make
another political speech he will probably be
more wary and act on the accepted maxim
OF his profession, that 'hearsay is not evi-
dencc"

THE INDIANS AND THE INDIAN RING.-The
country will be profoundly dissatisfied if
Congress adjourns without determining
some definite policy in reference to the In
dians. The Indian Department is sink of
corruption. 1t generates and supports
dangerous and shameless ring. There is no
reason why the whole Indian question
should not go into the hands of the army.
There is sense of honor in the army that
we have yet to find in the rings about WASH
ington. Such n change would mean the
transfer of the Indians to the care of Sher-
man, Sheridan, Hancock, and men Of that
calibre-msn above the mutations and
temptations of politics, who know the In
diem question thoroughly, who handle it
practically when no stealing is possible and
who would see that justice was done to
white men and red. Let this Congress crush
tho Indian Ring, and we shall feel that even
Custer has not died altogether in vain.

"CUsTEI AND Hrs Many corre-
spondents are under the impression that the
proposed monument to Custer means that
it will do honor to him alone This il a
wrong impression. Our idea is that the
monument shall celebrate the heroism of
every one in that noble band, from the
colonel who commanded down to the hum
blest private in the ranks. They all alike
shared the fate of Custer, and they will share
his glory and his fame.

A SUBSCRIPTION PROM LAWRENCE BARRErT-
We have received an eloquent and manly
letter, which we elsewhere print, from Law
renee Barrett, the distinguished trage2ian.
enclosing subscription of two hundred
and fifty dollars tor q monument to
Custer and his men, and proposing to
play at one of our theatres tor the benefit
Of the fund. This is good suggestion, and
,ne that does credit to the heart and head of
ar. Barrett. There is no office the trage-
dian more gladly performs than that which
makes him the representative of valor, duty
and self-denial. The suggestion of this fine
actor, that the profession should unite in
doing honor to one whose life and death
we're embodiments of valor. duty and self
asuial, is worthy of all praise

The Fifth Avenue Conference.

The democratic newspapers are vexed
whenever any member of the famous Fifth
Avenue Conference declines to vote for Til
den. Thus, when Carl Schurz said he pre-
ferred the financial record of Hayes to that of
Hendricks, there was roar. He was told that
he had been at the Conference and to vote
for Hayes was to be renegade. Now comes
Horace White taking the same ground, and
we presume we shall have the same censure
The Fifth Avenue Conference was, as we
understand it, a protest of certain republ-
cans against the nomination of Mr.. Conk-
ling, Mr.. Blaine or Mr.. Morton. It was
really republican movement. If the Con-
vention satisfied its demands it had no mo-
tive to 60 elsewhere Mr. Schurz felt that
the Convention did all ne could expect II
did not nominate any Objectionable men to
office; it made the platform clear on finance
its candidate took high ground on civil
service and one term. There was no ground
upon which the Conference could stand in
opposition to Hayes, unless it assumed the
preposterous theory that man who had
served through the war as general, who
had been in Congress and three times as
Governor, was kind of dishcloth, to be
soaked and squeezed by the machine men
Of the party.

Tn. German 4. Politics.

Every now and then, especially in the
heat of national canvass, we hear about
the influence Of the German vote in our
politics. Not long since Judge Goepp, Of
the Marine Court, made formal transfer Of
his allegiance from the republicans to
Tilden, and at once Judge Dittenhoefer re-
piled that the Germans did not mean to fol-
low Goepp, but would give themselves to
Schurz. There is scarcely canvass in
which the German does not become promi-
nent actor In every convention we have
Heinrich or Fritz demanding recognition"
In every ticket we find certain fraction Of
German names As Mr.. Justice Quinn, one
of the wisest of our local Statesmen, well
remarked, on memorable occasion, II view
with alarm the increase of the German ele-
ment in this country of ours"
We are disposed to concur with Mr.. JUS
tice Quinn, at least so far as to deplore any
bringing of nationality into our politics
The most distressing creature is the profes
sional Irishman and the professional Gen
man, the professional Catholic and the pro
fessional Orangeman By this we mean
representative of that class, who only
prefers a certain faith and AYERS a certain
nationality for political ends. Whenever
we hear a man asking Office because he is
German or Catholic, or opposing the cleo.
tion of some other candidate because he il
an Irishman or an Orangeman, we feel that
it is ON impertinence. In this country we
are all Americans. Let our race be what il
may, let MS worship God as we please, we are
American in our citizenship, and only Ameri.
cans We do not elect men to Office because
they are German or Irish, but because they
are honest, capable men. This business.
which comes with every canvass, of schem-
ing politicians arranging to transfer the
Irish or the German vote, is an offence to all
honest Germans or Irishmen. It supposea
that they are like cattle, to be driven and
bought and sold, and not conscientious, re-
flecting citizens. The whole business il
quackery. The German vote and Irish vote
will Co. like the American vote, wherever
the wisdom of the voter wills it. Whoever
claims to deal with it by wholesale, to de-
liver it to one candidate or withdraw it from
another, is an impostor. Let us therefore
hear no more of the ''Irish vote" or the
German vote"

GRANT AND BR1sTow. Grants
letter to ex-Secretary Bristow, releasing
him from obligations of confidence in re-
lation to Cabinet consultations, is model
of correct taste, good temper and right
feeling He approves the position taken
by Mr. Bristow before the House COM
mittee, that what occurred in Cabinet or be-
tween o member of the Cabinet and the Ex-
ecutive is privileged, and that a committee of
Congress has no right to demand an answer.
Only the President himself can rightfully
break the seal of confidence in such cases,
and President Grant acts in the spirit of an
officer who feels strong in conscious inno-
cence in informing Mr.. Bristow that he is at
full liberty to tell all he knows, and extend
ing the same permission to all other members
or ex-members of the Cabinet who possess
any knowledge of what the President has said
or done in relation to the whiskey trials. We
are glad of an opportunity to commend
President Grant for having done a right
thing in prompt, manly way.

The Monument to Custer.

We printed yesterday letter from the dis
tinguished General Averill defending Major
Reno from some of the criticisms passed
upon him by the press. and especially by
General Rosser. General Averill thinks
that Major Reno did his duty, which we
sincerely trust will prove to be the case.
But there is point in the Generals letter
which has significance. Advocate" says
General Averill, ''the passage of an act by
Congress which will secure to the widow of
every officer of the army and navy who falls
in battle at least one-half Of her husbands
pay during her widowhood." 'Let us, he
says in conclusion, commemorate the
splendor of Clusters career and death, but
let us not forget his widow and the widows
of those noble officers who formed with him
and his men an unbroken skirmish line of
dead heroes"
The passage of such an act as General
Averill recommends would be really re-
vision of our whole pension laws. No Con-
gress would give the widows of officers so
large pension without applying the same
rule to the widows of private soldiers. We
the subject at this time; but nothing would
be more appropriate than for Congress to
give special pensions to the widows and
children of the brave men who fell under
Custer. The death Of Custer was excep-
tional in all of its surroundings. 1t was the
fall of brave, good, self-sacrifcing soldier
doing his duty. 1t was deed which will
add honor to our race and generation, and
for this reason it would be appropriate for
Congress to Take hold of the subject and
vote special pension to the widows of the
noble officers and men who fell before
Sitting Bull.
But while this is duty that cannot be too
earnestly urged upon Congress, let us, as
people, do our share to, in the words Of
General Averill, commemorate the splen-
dor Of General Clusters career and death"
That can be done by raising such monu-
ment to the memory of these heroes MS has
been proposed by the HERALD and toward
which we have already received subscrip-
tions amounting to S2,654 rs. Let Cen
eral Averill and the brave men who served
with him go into this work. Let o sum be
raised large enough to commemorate forever
the splendor and heroism of Clusters ca
reer. Let Custer monument associations be
formed all over the country-like those
formed in Washington and Monroe, Mich
one in each city and State. This is a work
in which the humblest can join, for no one
is SO poor that he cannot do homage to valor
and self-sacrifce.

THE PLACE FOR CASTLE GARDEN.
trust our authorities will remove Castle Gar.
den from the Battery. There are a hundred
reasons why the emigrant should not land
here. The city is overcrowded. There are poor
accommodations The emigrant is sure to
fall in with sharks. We need the Battery e
a pleasure ground. The surroundings of the
Battery are unfavorable to the freshly ar
rived emigrants. AS the city grows the Bat
terry will become more and more incommo-
dious, while the temptations awaiting the
newly landed stranger will increase. We
should build the new Castle Garden at Bay
Ridge or on Staten Island, where there ID
room and ready access. Or we might induce
Uncle Sam to give us Governors Island,
and make that grand emigrant depot. But
we do not wish any more emigrants to land
on the Battery. 1t is the worst place on all
the island for such purpose, and grows
worse and worse every year.
