LILLE SPRING MOTING.

The annual shifting of the population OF the me-
tropolis and its suburbs seems likely to be more
general this Spring than ever before. Although the
influence of tho elevated railroads in equallzing
house rents will be, no doubt, more felt year later
than now the facilities they afford for
speedv and comfortable transit act a strong
inducement 70 thousands of people to
change their habtatIOus. a large influx 10

owners are making preparations for this movement

Park with rows of the stereotypod brOwn-stOne.
high-stOop houses in which the average
New-Yorl architect most delights. This i'm
pulse is not likely, however, to work to
the serious detriment of the outlying
towns. for it will DO largely counterbalanced by Il
movenentin the opposite direction. The places of
the people who are about to leave these towns to
find new homes in the upper wards OF NeW-IOrk
impelled TO the change by the immunity they can
now ENJOY from the miseries Of crowded and
tardy street cars. will be taken by Others
who will go where rents are low aud
whole houses attainable to families of
moderate means now that transit from the
ferries to uptown theatres aud stores costs so
little time and fatigue. Thus, while many VIII
continue to put up with the discomfJrts OF French
flats. boardng-houses and other forms OF partner

greater seclusion. The incentive with both classes

The suburban cities arc not, therefore, likely 10
snstain any important losses Of population, but
then growth will probably be checked for a time.
The natural increase of metropolitan population
will not overflow into Gcw-Jersey and Long Island,
SO long Us there is upon tho upper portions OF
Manhattan Island for hundreds Of thousands Of
additional inhabitants. In former times fifteen

elevated railway cars and entertained with their
newspapers whether they ride three miles or FIVE.
Thus, so far as getting back and forth from stores
and Offices aud places Of amusement Is concerned.
1t is Just as well TO live in Observation-Disclosures as in
FlftIeth.
Ii is impossible to say to what extent the new
rapd transit lines viii affect rents in the middle
belt of the city, above Fourteenth-st., which has
heretofore bean considered the most desira bic resi-
dence section, until the Spring renting season
il further advanced. An unusually large num-
ber of houses are placarded "To Let" but
snch bills often represent minor differences be-
tween landlord and tenant, which are settled
before the 1st OF May instead OF actual prospect
of the houses coming upon the market.

No COMPROMISE.

The Republican members Of Congress have
decided upon line of action in defence of
the election laws, in which they will be sup
ported by the best opinion of the country.
They will resist every Democratic attempt
to break down the barriers TO fraud in
elections, earnestly and in solid phaanx; they
will make no pairs with Democrats, and
will demand am;:1e time for debate. On the
other hand, they will not waste the money of
the country and prolOng a vexatiOus session
of Congress by stubborn opposition, after all
opposition is seen TO be useless. There will
be no fillbustering, but when the case of hon
est voting VS.. fraudulent voting has been
fully argued, the minority will let it go to the
President and TO the country.
The Republican party has thus taken brave
stand on this question. Tie decision of its
representatives in Congress will be approved
by honest sentiment throughout the Union.
They are infexiby opposed to breaking down
the safeguards of elections. They believe
absolutely in the wisdom of the Republi-
cans in the last Congress who prevented
the passage of appropriation bills which
carried with them this obnoxious legisla-
ton. They recognize this as the ground
ON which the battle Of this session must be
fought, the ground on which there can be
no compromise, from which there must be
no retreat. The issue involves the purity of

MISSOURI AND REPCDfATION

The State of Missouri seems to be emulous
of the fame of South Carolina as the leading
State for notification. For some years after
the war. under a Republican administration
and constitution, the State gained rapidly in
population and in wealth by immigration from
Northern States and seemed on the high road
to prosperity. The political revolution which
overturned the Constitution of 1865, and
which gave absolute power to ths reaetionary
element. has already had marked effect
upon the growth of the State both in wealth
and in population. immigration from
the North has been almost arrested for
years 1t was remarked by one of the di-

Even that portion of the public which was
expected to be profoundly moved by the pros
pect of women's walking match has received
the exhibition now in progress at Oll-
more's Garden with most impressive apathy.
The display of feminine beauty Is NOT
dazzling. and the record of miles walked
is not of . the least consequence. IN
deed, if the statements OF dlsgus.eo
contestant made elsewhere, are true, the
women's walking match is fraud in this re-
spcct, as well as a farce in this and all others
Gilmore's Garden is not a temple OF the arts
exactly, and the proclamation OF its haiiowed
precincts by a variety show of this sort
will be calmly submitted to, no doubt
by the public; but still it is a respect
able place, and is situated IN highly
respectable quarter of the city. Madison
Square is not the region for an exhibition ike
this, and the speculator who has organized
it might earn one good opinion, at least by
taking himself off, at once, with the whole OF
his miserable crew.

The action taken by the directors OF the
New York Elevated Road in view OF the accl-
dent of Tuesday is a wise one, and Is
prompter recognition of the inevitable than
railroad corporations have been in the habit
of making. To obtain safe transit we can well
afford to sacrifice little of its speed, and the
only way to be sure of safe transit on
the East Side road, it seems, is to run
all branches as independent roads connecting
with the main road, and thus to remove all
necessity for crossings. The bulk OF the
traffic on this road is undoubtedly on the
main line, passing by both the FOrty-second-
st. and the City Hall branches, and the
passengers on these short roads must
nav for the added convenience by the
slight loss of time which the change
of cars will cause. The company can
reduce the interval, however, to a very
few seconds by having immediate connections
made. This order disposes of the only serious
danger I'm connection with travel on the East
Side, except at the proposed crossing OF the
two elevated roads in Chatham-squale. A
careless employ6 at. that point might some
day blunder into fearful catastrophe. What

these funds should be diverted to the
use of "an institution in which neither the in-
habltants nor the dogs of Quincy have any per-
ceptible interest, except of the most remote and
general character" All the, new books of the
Quincy Library are paid for by the dogs, or by the
dogs owners at least, and the proposed change
would have bad effect upon the literary acquis-
tons of the old town. In what way dogs could be
made to do good it Is not easy to see and the
sympathies of all lovers of books will be with Mr.
