We notice that parties are engaged in
scraping up the mud on Main street in
this place, and carting it away. We also
notice that portions of this street are be-
ing again covered with cinder. We had
hoped that no more cinder would ever
be put upon our streets. 1t is a most
disagreeable nuisance. When dry, it is
fine dust, and when the wind blows it
enters the eyes and lungs, and is almost
as dangerous as powdered glass. causing
inflammation of the eyes, and inducing
consumption. When it rains, this pow
dered cinder becomes a nasty black mud.
Why not cover our streets with gravel or
pounded limestone We believe gravel
could be procured by the Narrow-Gauge
railroad at a fair rate. Do try it.

BE Slow TO Condemn.

The Rev. FRANK L. SMITH, OF the Ply
mouth Bethel, should not be condemned
without more conclusive evidence than any
which has yet been adduccd against him. The
strong presumption OF innocence which n
man of his previous standing is entitled to
in his favor does not seem to us to have
been as yet overcome. A woman who pro-
claims her own shame IL always to be re-
garded with good deal OF distrust.
An important circumstance In support Of
the theory of Mr.. SMITHS innocence is that
not a line incompatible with this theory is
To be found In the letters which are brought
forward to bolster up the charge. The let
tors may be genuine-we know nothing
about that-but il they are they contain no
positive proof Of guilt whatever. 1t is evil
dent from them that there were some
secrets between the parties corresponding /;
but these secrets may have been OF the most
trivial character, and IL would be wholly UNI
justiiiable to assume from anything that
appears that they were criminal In their
nature.
The disposition TO condemn clcrgymen on
the first breath Of suspicion or accusation
is too prevalent Taking the whole great
flock together, there is only one black sheep
to n thousand white ones after all.
Some people think good deal Of the doc
trine of chances, and they would maintain
that 50 many ministers having been proved
to have gone astray, taking the lowest pos
sihle estimate Of the profession, it is impos-
sible that any more Of those accused al pres
ent can Ice guilty.
But apart from any such reasoning as
this-to which indeed We attach no weight
the public should be SLOW to condemn n man
who has always maintained II fair rcputa-
ton, and it should never be done save upon
the most conclusive proof.

Close the Door. for work in Earnest

Gen. buffers opinion that the work of
the POTTER Investigating Committee can
best be done in private sessions is undoubt-
edly judcious. The reasons against pub
LEFTY which apply to the proceedings of
Grand Jury are reasons for closing the doors
Of this investigation until the committee Is
ready to lay Its report before the people.
The talk Of some Of our Republican con-
temporarics about star Chamber pro-
cccding is entirely seusclcss. This Is not
Il court to decide whether Florida and
Louisiana voted for HAYES or for TILDEN.
Eleven men. some Of them Democrats and
some Republicans, have been instructed by
Congress 10 procure evidence that Will en-
able Congress and the country to determine
whether HAYES was honestly elected or
whetLs. he holds Office through Fraud.
We SUPPOSE that every member ~ the COM
mittcc intends to do all in his power To make
the work thorough and the results concm-
siyc. Having gathered all the evidence that
bears upon the object Of the investigation.
and having submitted such evidence to the
House Of Representatives, the functions OF
the committee will be- at ali end. The Qucs-
ton Of open or secret sessions Is only
question of the more Practicable method of
getting at the mole truth.
Ieu tho truth be reached more surely and
speedily by taking the testimony in private,
protecting the witnesses from intimidation
and abuse, and cOniining the investigation
to the object for which it was ordered, or by
opening the doors to outside influence and
compicating the work at every step by the
published dcnials and counter statements
Of parties implicated Gen. BUTLER is an
investigator OF considerable experience and
not little sagacity; and he knows that if
the york is 10 be done in earnest, it ought TO
be donc in private. Furthermore, he prob
ably has enough confidence in his own
watchfulnes5 and in the shrewdncss Of his
Republican colleagues to assure him that
Republican interests will be as safe in one
way as IN the other.
Let the country wait patiently until the
POTTER Committee has finished its work (;
and then let the whole truth be known,

part and credltable; but, however ready the
Commissioners may be 10 meet the charges,
the manner In which the Grand Jury was
induced To make them cannot be approved.
The reports generally agree that when
the Grand Jury came before the Recorder
last Thursday they had voted upon the
complaint against the members Of the
Board of Health and had voted not to in
dict. The Recorder then took them to task
in severe language for having examined
witnesses in behalf OF the board-though
their right to examine such witnesses Ia
sustained by the weight OF legal authority
and went ON TO say: You arc TO Judge
whether these men have committed u wrong,
upon evidence that shall be submitted TO
you. Do you suppose that these men
are going TO say, when they have suffered
this state OF things to exist for year and Il
half or two years In this city, within the
knowledge Of half q million " people, that
they will not try to excuse themselves p
Since these remarks, the indictment OF all
the members Of the board has been an
nounced. The result can scarcely be Won
dorcd at. II q Judge tells Grand Jury
that certain defendants whose case is before
them are guilty Of a wrong, and that half q
million of people know IL, the prospect Of an
indictment is tolerably well assured. The
question Is whether n Judge ought to do
this. That question arises wholly irrospoc-
tive OF the person accused. Juries and not
Judges are to pass upon the allegation Of
guilt In criminal cases. The question OF
probable guilt belongs TO the Grand Jury;
the final determination to a petit jury.
Both In our opinion, should be allowed to
do their work uninfiuencod by Judges, save
as to the law applicable TO the particular
case before them. Any judicial attempt TO
control the action of Grand Jury upon n
question Of fact seems to us dangerous to
liberty, and we do not believe that any pub
lie cxigency, fanced or real, can justify it,

A Dangerous Precedent.

We are assured that the Board of Health
is prepared to meet the issue presented by
its accusers-and we have no doubt it
will meet it successfully. There can be little
doubt we suppose, that the Offensive odors
Of which so much complaint is made proceed
largely from the vicinity Of Newtown creek,
the boundary between Kings county and
Queens county For three years the New
York Board Of Health has endeavored to Sc
cure legislation which would enable it to
deal with such nulsances; but the attempt
has been thwarted by opposition from
Brooklyn and Long Island City. At last the
board ventured to institute proceedings
against the owner Of one factory near the
creek, under an old statute OF doubtful ap-
plicablity. Tho result has been convic-
tlon, showing that the jury thought the
noxious odor came from the Greenpolnt
region; but the question as to whether the
Judgment can be sustained Is SO grave that
1t ought to bc passed upon by the Court of
Appeals before there are any more trials
under the same law
As the Board of Health, therefore, pro-
poses to maintain that it has done all that
II could safely and prudcntly do to suppress

ancestors had handed down valuable estate
until it reached him. died leaving all his
property to the wife he took to him after he was
fifty years old, and Of how all his near relatives
united to crush the will. Perhaps the most
unique argument made before the Surrogate
was the assertion that the woman married him
not for love but for money: and that as love
should be the motive for marriage. she was not
entitled TO the property. This did not convince
the Surrogate. He sustained the will. aud tho
