The public will await with considerable
interest the issue Of the struggle between
the Recorder and the Aldermen. In IN
address to the Grand Jury yesterday Judge
Hackett declared that he would lay before
that body the proof that the Aldermen had
violated tho city charter in granting per-
mits for street booths, and il was his inten-
ton to teach them q ''lesson." The lesson
to which no refers of course means an in
dictmcnt, and if they are convicted before
him the imposition of the full penalty pre-
scribcd by the law for its violation. This
determined action upon his part will be
commended by the great majority of our
citizens. and IL his "lesson" shall be effect
i've in making the Aldermen and their sue
cessors do better in the future they will be
oil the moro pleased. The Recorder has
already taken the Board Of Health in hand.
II it would not be imposing too much labor
upon him and the Grand Jury we wish he
would cast his eye upon the so-called Street
Cleaning Bureau and SEQ what he can do
with that exemplary body. But, after oil,
one at time is sufficient. and when the
Aldermen and the Health Board are dis
posed Of the other gentlemen will be in
order. According to the present outlook

In the number of our societies for mind

the Prevention Of Cruelty to Children may
be named as honorably distinguished for
the good it has done. But it appears to be
not without disposition that is tho common
weakness Of these instruments Of miscol-
laneous benovolence. This is excessive

not, that are nominally for general benefit
and for private charity are administered by
men who, when honest, are OF an enthusiastic

tho laws on which they act by extreme in

have little or no relation with their proper

Failure or the silver Bill

Statistics of the deepest interest to
communities who aspire to be relieved by
legislation, have just been published show
ing that all the sections Of this country
which most DANGEROUSLY demanded the pas
sage Of the Silver bill have, since its pas
sage, received less silver than those parts
which not only did not want the bill, but
opposed its passage. AS the reporters put
this case, the sections that clamored for
silver legislation do not want silver coin,
but have finally concluded that green
backs arc good enough for them.
But that view misrepresents the people.
the passage of the bill had less money
than the other sections before, and they
have less money than the other sections
now. This proves the bill to be failure,
for the people intended that it should over
come all inequalities in this respect What
is the use of Silver bill that does not make
it easy for the people to have q pocket full
Of silver. On the old-fashioned money sys-
TENS it was always understood that whether
the money was silver or gold or paper a
man could not get hold OF any considerable
quantity Of it unless he had some valuable
commodity to be exchanged for it. It was
intended to abolish oil that by tho Bland
bill, and here those fellows in Washin gton
have after oil gone and made a law that
does not in the least improve the condition
of the poorer sections Of the country. This
IS heartrending, and Congress should be
burned-in effigy.

ture, and an educated Italian, however
poor, ought not to be condemned unheard
as a person of brutal instincts. His wife Is
a French woman, and if possessed OF the
energetic temper Of her race is also appar-
emily possessed of it's sympathetic nature.
The home of these poor people teens with
pets, and it is not rational to suppose that
people who have parrots, monkeys and
chickens in their apartments and keep
them clean with all that can be wanting
in kindness or disciplinary supervision OF
their children. 1t is straining of the law
to apply to case like this the statute CIV

dren Of these poor people. They have not
violated that law. II the father has violated
a statute against mendicancy punish him
for that. But to proceed as has been done
is to punish the misdemeanor Of begging in
the streets by depriving people like these OF
almost the only happiness they have in the
world-the delight of the society of their
children. This is to be barbarous and saw
age out of very tenderness of heart.

The agreement among the democrats in
Congress to order an investigation of the
fraud question is merely decision by the
wiser and cooler heads Of the party to keep
this matter under their own control. They
are willing enough to use this subject for
electioneering purposes, but do not intend
that the country shall be disturbed and the
democratic party weakened by revolution
ary attempt to dispossess Mr.. Hayes and
inaugurate Mr.. Tilden. If it shall appear
in the course Of the investigation that Mr..
Noyes. our Minister to France, or any other
civil officer Of the United States was party
to the frauds, such officer or officers will be
impeached. and impeachment trials, rest
ing on strong grounds of evidence, would

tai Unless as q basis for impeachment

is disagreeable to many of the republican
leaders to give up the Southern question,
about which they have SO long battled
their old speeches. But the country is tired
of thrashing straw; it is wearied of hearing
questions discussed which every business
man knows to be dead and which every
business interest wishes to remain in their
graves. The republicans who wish to place
their party on a new and national policy are
wise. They have not much time to lose; but
if they seize their opportunity and use it
we'll they may yet rescue themselves from
the demoralizing defeat which has threat
ened them.

An Explorer 10 the Rescue.

DR.. Isaac l. Hayes comes in at the
eleventh hour with an excise bill which, if
it should become a law, would afford some
little relief to the cities of the State, and es-
pecially to New York. The bill, which was
introduced in the Assembly yesterday by
DR.. Hayes and in the Senate by Mr. Ecclc-
sine, permits licenses for the sale Of spir-
itous liquors, wines and beer ito be drunk
on the premises" to be granted to the keep
ers Of restaurants and dining rooms in the
cities of the State. Two provisos are en-
braced in tho bill; the restaurant people
are required to be moral and the
meals to be warm. Wicked proprietors
and cold cuts are excluded from
the benefit Of the law. Oyster stews and
hash would legalize license, while half a
dozen raw or pork and beans would be re-
jected rs lawful qualification. The bill is
q good one as far as it goes. Under the
present absurd and imperative law such
places as Demonico's downtown restaurants
are not entitled to q license, md if the law
were to be strictly enforced the people
would be deprived Of the accommodation Of
the best eating houses in the city. The
Hayes bill authorizes tho licensing of such
places, and, while it is only q slight I'M
provement on tho present law, the people
will think themselves fortunate to receive it
from Legislature that has not manifested
any great respect for the wishes and inter-
ests Of the city of New York

They are variable in the Middle and New Eng
