Compromise with creditors and an extension
of time for payments are urged as preferable
to a receivers management for the Long Island
Savings Bank. Such arrangements are common
enough where commercial enterprises fail and
are threatened with bankruptcy, but nothing
of the sort is contemplated for broken savings
banks, under the statutes. Perhaps if the con-
sent of all the depos.tors could be obtained,
the Acknowledgement and the Bank Depart
ment would not refuse to allow the settlement
proposed. But it will probably prove diff
cult matter to get the consent Of all depositors
especially of those who have small accounts
although it can be easily shown that there is
more hope for them in this way than through
the tedious processes of receiver If the
small accounts could be paid promptly, there
would be less difficulty in compromising with
the residue.

The LONDON Tines, which isnot the highest author
ity on what happens at the Vatican, has made much
of the rlmored designation Of Cardinal Pecci as
Chancellor (camerlengo of the Roman Church, whose
function it is to "hold the keys" during the vacancy
of the Holy See between the death of the Pope and
the election of his successors and it is alleged that
the appointment was suspended because the Pope
and the Cardinals could not agree upon the measures
TO he adopted for the next conclave. The nominal
ton of Cardinal Pecc as camerlmgo, announced in
the dispatches on Saturday, is supposed to indicate
that these disputes have been composed. But
since the Pope alone, without consulting the
Cardinals has full power to make provision for the
concave it is not easy to understand why there
should have been any dispute moreover the Office
Of Chancellor of the Roman Church, having to do
very largely with the temporal government, is of
much less importance nowadays than is imagined ;
and. finally according to the telegraph, Cardinal
Peccl has been appointed, not Chancellor of the
Roman Church, but Chancellor of the Sacred Col
ege post which relates to the property of the Car
dinals and has no connection with the government
of the Roman See during vacancy.
Mr. Max Maretzek lamenting to a Baltimore re-
porter the corrupting influence upon art OF the
sLoddy aristocracY, whose bad taste and vulgar ig
norance havo blighted audiences, actors and man
tons upon the future of music now that Mr.. Fryer
has had the happy thought of uniting Wagner and
Meyerbeer in grand "opera-fest," and leading
them through the country like pair OF musical
German twins, with Mr. Maretzek for Snowman. 1t
is needless to say that veteran impresaro anic-
mates the brightest results from this for
tunate conjunction. and yet he does not
commit himself far as to pronounce Wag-
ner the leading composer Of the day, while
Gounod and Verdi distract his preferences Still lie
admits that Wagner has done much good work-in
the field opened by Meyerbeer. So has Ohenbach
done considerable-he has been most happy in his
work :" while the trivialites of Rossn and Bellini
hardly deserve to be called operas at oil. Some Of
these views are a little unexpected, but unexpected
ness is the of humor To all victims of the
interviewing system who get out of their depth, we
commend bit of dialogue which followed these
marks: Rep.-"Will opera bouife retain its hold

Variations in the amount OF annual rainfall may
become of direct interest to our citizens when as
was the case last year. they great as to excite
fears for the supply OF Croton The subject Is as
cussed with much ability IN tho last report OF the
Meteorological Observatory at Central Park. Inc
statistics there collected are shown by means OF
diagrams and the reports Of rainfall at Providence,
Philadelphia and Washington are similarly trea'ed
for the purpose Of comparison. These diagrams IN
dictate that there successive cycles OF excess ana
dimnuion of rainfall. From 1886 to 1902 the ram
fall WIS below the average each year except IN lor
instances From 1852 to 500 it was above, except
in three instances Since 1859 IL is again mostly
below the average Similar, though not coincdent'
results are obtained for the other cites named
These calculations may not aid the theory that con-
meets the amount of rainfall with the snnspot
periods. but il will comfort New-Yorkers with the
hope that the deficient rainfall Of last year was not
a permanent condition, nor consequence OF clear

The " DcllgeIenJ uOn-COllDdldutS WHO are

The war ended some twelve or thirteen years
ago, and it is time the young men who took
no part in it found that out.
While il is not certain that Ohio will 60 as
Hamilton County goes, Republican prospects
in that county seem to have been greatly i'm
proved by Democratic discussions. In the in
tetior of the State, also, they have been i'm
proved by Democratic ignorance or chuIlish-
ness in refusing to comply with the new regis
tration law. Ohio will do its best to stay in
the Republican column.
The readiness with which Gambetta's SEN
tence has been confirmed, renders still clearer
fine shackled condition of the French press,
despite the valiant efforts which Theirs, Favre,
Simon, and others, made in their day to estab
lish freedom of discussion. 1t is expected that
the Court of Cessation, to which Gambetta
now appeals, viii show more independence
than the lower tribunal. Whatever may be its
decision. it is high time TO demand for jour
nalists the jury trial accorded to criminals.
Gen. McClelan's nomination has changed the
face of the canvass in NewJersey for both
parties. Although his nomination has been
received with so much favor by reason of
its strong contrast to the choice which
seemed possible at one time, yet there are
grounds on which the Republicans may well
question the propriety Of electing him to the
Office, and some of these are plainly stated in
q letter given elsewhere. Some considerations
are also presented which the Republican Con-
yention at Trenton is likely to heed.

versal smile. and all the Offices are to drop into
the mouth of the Solid South. Mr.. Wallace
betrays some nervousness as to the ofice-seek-

SO inconsiderate as to seek his.

Gentlemen who may be SO unfortunate rs to
become involved hereafter i'll a personal dis
puto with savings-bank depositors, who declare
that Their money has been stolen, or who
NAV be dragged into a controversy with these
ouarrelsome courts, ought to bear in mind the
demeanor Of the President Of the Clairmont
SAVINGS Bank, when confronted with the min
ions of the law. Mr.. Broadwcll, who has been
too i'll during all the exciting disclosures of
the past week respecting lis bank to come
over to New-York, was walking down stairs
when the officers and the counsel Of the de
positore forced their way into the house. When
one of the former actually arrested Mr.. Broad
well, that gentleman went into an elaborate
series of swOons His swooning was p good
deal ike his banking. Ii was Overdone After
the first attack, lie said: " Go for bail - after
tbe next. " Go for the doctor" and, after the
third, "What does tlis mean 2" showing
that under this process his mind was
getting almost as badly mudded as bis
own accounts. There We're no more sWOons.
The sheriff was unsympaihetic, and all the
spectators seem to have thought the gentleman's
fainting somewhat below the average Of femin-
inc amateurs. But it is n valuable suggestion.
There can be no more graceful way Of vindi-
eating your character than by sinking back on

writing to the newspapers, and much easier

From the particulars now given in regard
to the method by which it is hoped that the
Universal Life Insurance Company may be re-
susctatcd, it appears that the plan proposed
by TIE TRIBUNE is to be essentially followed,
except in one particular. The exception is,
however important The proposition is to
make no change in the system by which the
former directors were appointod-a system
which would pepctuate them in Office,
since all vacancies in the board are TO be
flied by the votes of its members.
The simple fact that the company was
brought to its present plight while under
the management Of these directors, shoird be
a conclusive reason agaius. renewing thcir con-
troll AS we have already said, the SGucrin-
tendent of Insurance is the representative OF thc
pcicy-holdcrs. He stands between them and
the old, bad management. He can serve the
interests OF the polcy holders at once and fully,
by taking control of ills movement for rcsus-
citation, and having the proxies for elccting
new board sent to him directly. That would
carry out the wishes of the polcy-hodors, and
confer honor on the Superintendent.

A SPIRIT THAT FAILED TO APPEAR
There WAS during Irving's life a
story aaost concerning his intimacy
with a young Englishmau. sn invalid,
who agreed to appear after death if he
should be invoked. The invalid re-
ferred to was named Hall. and he and
Irving met in Spain. whittier the
former had gone for his health. Irv-
ing gave the following account of the
affair: One day they were talking
about ghosts. and Hall suddenly asked
bis friend ''if he should like to receive
. visit from him after death Z" Irving
replied that. as they bad always
been on good terms. he would not he
afraid to receive such visit if
/, were practicable Hall then
said he was serious in nis idea, and
added, Il wish you to say you will con-
sent" To this Irving agreed. and Hall
said: Irving it is . compact, and if l
can solve the mystery for you will do
it, Soon atterwsrd the invalid expired
and Irving was the only real mourner
at the funeral He wrote to the dead
mans friends tull description Of the
sad event, and, while oppressed with
the tender associations Of such mourn
ful scene, lac wandered out TO their for
mer haunts, and then recalled tho com.
pact. In obedience to his promise he
whispered an invocation. but no one sp-
peared; nor did Hall ever make him self
present to his last earthly friend. The
latter was wont to say that 1.-The ghosts
were not kind to him Troy ~. y

EsTIMATEs-The heads Of Depart
ments at Washington DO not intend that
any want Of money the Government
may experience shall be chargsble to
their psrsimony in making estimates.
On the contrary. estimates seem to be
made out on the principle some shop
keepers observe when . customer en-.
tiers their store; they ask enough and
take what they can get. The estimates
for the next year from January 80,
1877. to June 81. 1873, are &299. GIL ,67l.
The net expenditure for the year end
ing June 30. 1875, were $25S. 459, 797,
and the estimated expenditures
for the present year. which are based
upon the expenditure Of the first quar-
ter will be S237 ,62S. .53. The Depart
ment estimates for the coming year are
therefore $tl ,00O, 900 in excess of the
actual expenditures for the year end
ing June 30 1876. and $4,000 900 in
excess Of the probable expenditure Of
the current year Some Of the Depart
ment estimates will be ruthlessly cut
into-for instance. the secretary Of
wars demand for a.. .2lo, ,595. for mill
tary establishment. and the secretary
Of the nsvy's demand for $l9. 45o,0ls.
for naval establishments.
