dubbed Mr. Blake when there was no noces-
sity, and no decent prOvocation even, for
such heavy punishment. Yet this charge Is
dismissed. and with it the accusation That
Captain Williams did not suppress gambling
houses in his precinct. If two negatives make
an affirmative. the Board of Police sOlemnly
declares that Captain Williams has suppressed
the gamblng-houses in his pTecinct-whlch
will be news to Captain Williams. 1t Is dlf-
fcut to conceive of anything which would
tend more directly to demOralize the police
force than such action as this on the part OF
the Commissioners, taken in defiance of facts
and for some motive which is not allowed to
appear This man Williams is a disgrace to
the force, and it is amazing TO find the Com
miSSioncrs, whose chief concern it should he
to preserve discipline actually "vindicating
him. If they should repent themselves ot
THEN doings and wish new ground on which
to indict HIM. they could find it in his coarse
threats, uttered on Monday III the presence OF
a half-dOzcn witnesses, against n clerk OF tie
department who had merely obeyed the or
ders of his superior in collecting evidence
against Captain Williams. The Commission
ers have virtually decided that 10 club cltl-
zen without prOvOcation and to tolerate gam
bing-hOusts Is not conduct "unbecomng an
"oflicer." If they would now add decision
on the public use of ruilian-like threats by
a police captain, we would at last know what
their idea of good officer is.

TIE BRITISH VARS.

The British arms have been crowned with
success in South Africa. While the centre has
remained behind its intrrnchmeDts at Rorke's
Drift since the massacre Of Isandula, there
has been hard fighting on the Transvaal
frontier and toward the coast. In the north
the Zulus have met with a disastrous repulse
after surprising Colonel Woods camp and in
ficting heavy loss. In tho south they have
fallen back, after making desperate effort TO
overvhelm the column which had set ont
from the mouth of the Tugela to relieve
Colonel Pearson. The beleaguerc1 garrison
has been rescued, and the troops are now
returning to their base of operations.

Every wcll-reeulated Irish and Scottish fam
ily III the old cDuntry possesses, We believe,
a spirit called Banehec uncomfortable to have
around, but satisfactory as an evidence OF
ancient and distinguished lineage. In pros
porous and happy times the Ban>hee is inyis-
! ibc; hut when disaster ImpendS, this form
prophetic of evil suddenly appears in the
house. and its warning voice is heard In the
midst of the family revels or in the silent
watches Of tie night. II was entirely proper,
of course, that the Democracy of Newly ork.
descended as il is from all the kings of Ire
land, should have a Ban,hee. We have no
reason to he surprised, therefore, if in its
seasons of trouble portentOus figure makes
a sudden appearance in the council-room,
mixes uniuvited with the domestic assembly,
hoyers while over the incpicnt rumpus, and
then yanishes mysteriOusly, as It came.
1t is Mr. Smith VI. Weed who seems to act
the part Of Banshee to our Democratic neigh
bOrs. They were making merry over a sup
posed victory III November 1876, when one
night Mr.. Smith Weed coming no one knew
whence and at nobody's call, silently aoated
into view at the Everett House headquarters.
Before morning there was waiing in the
party. The news of disaster came thick and
fast But the Banshee was already gone.
Nobody sent him away. Nobody saw him go.
Nobody in particular knew whittier he went
He foated southward, the herald of misfor-
tune. Invisible to every one at Columbia eX-
cept the immediate family, his warning voice,
audible only by them, made timely forecast OF
the loss OF the State. lie appeared to Colonel
Peiton and Handy Solomon at Baltimore just
before the collapse of the great $4,000
scheme. lie was visible at the Everett House
on several occasions previous to the awful
cataclysm of December when he foreshad-
owed the defeat of the Marble operations in
Florida, the failure of the second conspiracy
at Columbia, the loss OF the Oregon vote, and
the breakdown of the revolution in the House
of Representatives, When the fatal outbuist
OF faction quarrels upset the last Democratic
State Convention, this gTewsome apparitiOn
developed itself in the centre of the uproar,
seeming to speak, yet wholly inaudible. The
catastrophe which overlook the Warden Of the
Auburn State Prison was prefgured by the
appearance of the Banshee to Superintendent
Pilsbury The overthrow of the Police Com
mission was fOretOld by a similar vision at
Albany. And now, when another Democratic
crisis seems to be approaching, we are told
that the usual portent has been materialized
in New-YOrk.
1t is to be noticed that the Banshee has no
direct visible agency in producing the misior-
tunes that follow HIM. Mr. Weed is entirely
innocent of all the disastrous transactions
which tread so close upon the manifestation
of bis presence; for he himself has said it,
and it's greatly to his credit. But his appear
ance is portent of mischief which the polit-
ical observer will not overlook and now that
he has been seen again in the thick of party
activity. Tammany and Anti-Tammany may
both wonder anxiously what is coming. Smith
Weed is a prophecy never falsiGed.

nOCTORS or ROG EESi

Concerning differences and disputes and
what comes Of them there are proverbs in endless
variety. "Whcn doctors disagree, who shall
"decldeT says one. "When rogues fall out
"bonest men get their dues" saws another.
Whether the prevailing contention between the
two factions of the Democratic party in this
city is a difference among doctors or a falling
out among rOgues, is a question upon which
opinions also differ. Those of us who have
watched the course of the party and are fam
iliar with its history, who know with what
diligence It's leaders have prosecuted the study
of the science OF government, what learning
and zeal they have brought to the solution of
great political problems, with what philos0-
phic temper they have always discussed the
questions Of current politics, and with what
profound intelligence and large forecast they
have settled them, would fain believe that
this is a dispute of doctors, scholars, men so
saturated with political science, so brimful of
political philosophy. so crammed with all
knowledge that there can be 40 bench above
them, no tribunal in which the authority re-
sides TO pass judgment on the questions they
raise. Those who know the schools in which
they were trained the clOisters where they
devoted themselves to favOritc pursuits,
the vigils they kept and keep, the
pore over, and the very glasses through
which they contemplate the future of free in
sttutions, will cling to the belief that these
are the differences of statesmen, and not those
which arise from the falling out of rogues.

Mr.. Gardeld's bill appropratng $4,000 to fur
nish tents and rations to destitute colored emf
grants in Kansas has q principle of justice to rest
upon These poor negroes left their homes because
they were deprived of rights guaranteed them by
the Government in the solemn declarations OF the
Constitution, and if the Government can relieve
their pressing need of food and shelter, II certainly
ought to do so The people OF Kansas are making
noble exertions to provide for the wanderers, but
the resources of the towns where they have landed
from the steamboats, are greatly overtaXed. There
i~ of course, little ground for hoping that a Demo
cratic Congress will aid the victims of Democratic
oppression, and private charity ought not to with
hold its helping hant for moment because OF this
proposition for Government action.

One Of the greatest bugbears OF tho day has

The Tammany Aldermen, who spent two hours
Yesterday in claiming for the Board the title
of "the Honorable might pIOftably spend
two homs at some time in trying to earn the

their disregard Of official decOrum have been
peculiarly offensive of late, and discussions
