The Glory OF New York.

II is the glory Of this city that the peace
has been preserved here. Let not this glory
depart from us. Every ounce OF blood shed
now would tell more against labor than
against capital
A free meeting, in the most excited times,
and under leaders including the most in
flammatory has been held in safety. II has
been demonstrated that the largest liberty
IL not Incompatible with the most perfect
order. The practicablity of free institu-
tions has received new and most impress
sive illustration.
Labor, in n republican country, has every
opportunity to obtain It's just compensation.
Meanwhile let us be careful To preserve
those free and equal institutions which arc
no less the inheritance of the poor than of
the rich.
Peace Is tho present and tho lasting glory
OF New York. Let peace be preserved

Wild Propositions.

Tho present disturbed state Of tho public
mind is not fitted for discussion of the qucs-
tons which undcrlio the labor agitation.
That must be postponed until the normal
condition Of things Is restored, and peace
Is no longer impcrllcd by violence. Then
both sides can be heard fairly, and salts
factory basis may be established, by which
the recurrence of similar calamity may
be avoided in future. The first duty now is
70 put an end to the existing strife. SO that
reason may resume its sway without men
ace or prejudice.
Suggestions have been made, however, in
the heat Of passionate feeling, which de-
servo to be discountcnanced in the strongest
terms. First, it is claimed that the hands
OF the Federal Executive ought 10 be
strengthened by additional lcgislation and
sccondly, that the regular army ought to
b. increased and made large and powerful.
Tho two propositions cover substantially
hut one idea, which, Invested of its external
nature and constitution of our Government.
A sudden exigcncy produced by extreme
causes, which have been slowly operating
for years and have eliminated in a crisis
when endurance could bear no more, is
seized upon as Offering the necessity which
ali dcspots urge as reason for aggran-
dlzing their power.
Mr.. HAYES and his con'cderates, EvARrs.
ScHuRz, and the others, who are in office by
the greatest fraud in modern history, desire
OF course to oblterate State lines abolish the
fundamental features OF the Constitution,
which separate Federal from State authori-
~. and fortify themselves by a large army
IL enforce their DEGREES. This is what they
call strong Government, and 1t would be
strong If the arrogance Of those who seek it
and those who second the aspiration could
possibly succeed.
Timid men who have lost their heads and
fear they may lose their wealth, readily
jump at any plan which ostensibly gives
them and their money additional security.
They do not stop to consider where such
changes might lead them, and what penal
ties would be inflicted on their children here
after. On the other hand, the military chiefs
and the parasites of the army seem to re-
ioice that an occasion has occurred which
may promise, by proper manipulation, to
arrest tho proposed and necessary retrench-
ment which was inaugurated at the last
session Of Congress and stopped by the SEN
Rte.
Whenever the day comes when the SUI
prcmacy of law and the protection Of society
depend upon the regular army and when
it orders may be dictated by the partisan
o. personal motives OF Fraudulent Presi-
dent, there Will be nothing left Of free gov
ernment but a mockcry of form, not worth
defending. As we have driltcd away from
the old mornings Of tho Constitution,
through period Of reckless extravaganza,
corruption, and fraud, these propositions
h. destroy every vcstlge Of the work Of tho
fathers and TO build upon its ruins n mill
tary dcspotlsm, sound like the last rawlings
OF those who have rcvelled in power and
patronage and are not willing to return
t. tho old anchorage Of restraint and
stability.

Besides these, this city contains thousands
OF laboring men who can get no work, many
OF whom arc very poor, and some Of whom.
with their wives and children, suffer for lack
of the ncccssaries OF life. Nobody disputes
that on election days the large majority of
the voters of these various classes support
the Democratic party. And yet, amid tho
trials and temptations OF this emergency,
New York Is the most quiet OF all the great
Northern cities that stand between the Con-
nocticut river and the Pacific ocean. Should
not such facts silence these brawliDg IScpub-
lican dcmagogucsl
Tho simple truth is that party politics
have nothing whatever TO do with these
strikes and riots, except In go far az the
Electoral Conspiracy Of the Republicans
has indirectly caused and promoted them.

ArCuINsvN.s VOTE.

The action OF Assemblyman Atchin-
son, in denouncing the mean by which
his vote was obtained on the Warden
bill. seems to have made quite a stir,
Judging from the tone of our Carson
dispatches. Those acquainted with
Mr.. Atkinson will not doubt that he
considered his action justified by the
events. "Thrice is he armed that hath
his quarrel just" ana the Mineral Hill
bill vas an equitable measure that
needed no trading nor bolstering. Un-
fortunately, that system of legislation
largely obtains, and it is almost an
impossibility for a local measure,
whatever may be its merits, to run the
gauntlet without its advocates in
dorsement Of other members pet
schemes, and much ill.advised legis.
lation Is the result. The overwhelm-
ing majority given to the Mineral Hill
bill In both Houses could not have
been obtained by such means, and
we are inclined to believe that the
Warden bill did not figure to any ex-
tent in its passage.

OF REWARDS.

In view of the frequent stage rob
berries occurring in this State, we are
inclined to believe that some such bill
rs the following Is a necessity. It's OBJ.
ject Is to stimulate officers and citizens
to more vigorous efforts In the pursuit
and capture Of highwaymen, which
. combined reward will do in many
instances, where the one offered by in
dividuals would have no effect. We
think 1t is . good bill and hope it will
pass:
AN ACr TO AUTHORIZE AND REQUIRE
THE PAYMENT OF REWARDS IN GER
TAIN CASES.
SECTION /. The Governor shall offer
. standing reward of three hundred
dollars for the arrest of each person
engaged In the robbery of, or ia the at
tempt to rob any person or persons,
upon, or having in charge, IN whole or
road train, or other cOnveyances En-
gagged 1T the time in carrying passen.
gers, or any private conveyance. within
this State, and for the arrest OF each
person engaged In the robbery OF, or
In the attempt to rob sny person OF
persons upon any highway in the
State Of Nevada; the reward to be paid
to the person or persons making the
arrest, Immediately upon tho cOnvic
ton of the person Or persons SO ar.
rested; but no reward shall be paid
except after such con victicn.
