body of about score would be re-
versed, but the Republicans have outdone
prophecy, gaining majority of nearly sixty
in the Chamber. It may not come amiss 10
some of our readers to remind them that
one-third of the 225 elected members OF the
French Senate retire every three years, ana
that this election was to choose the successors
of one such retiring section. In all, there
were 50 retiring Senators, and more
than three -fourths were Conservatives'-oniy
nineteen being Republicans. The election mas
almost exactly reversed these figures. So far
AZ heard from, GA Republicans have been
elected, and Is Conservatives, with second
ballots necessary in several districts. This
secures the splendid majority in the Cham-
ber already mentioned, and gives over
whelmng assurance, not only OF tle
wonderful vitality of the Republican party
but of the stability of the Republic ltseif.
The dispatches afford some striking proofs OF
the growth of Republican sentiment in France,
in spite of the intrigues of the MOnarchists'
Taking the aggregate of number oil
departmeuts. where Sc Conservative can
didates received more than $4,000 votes
in 1876, this year the candidates of the
same party pOlled but little more
than 5000. The returns already re-
ceived Indicate what amounts to quiet revo-
luton in the sentiment of the country, and
it strengthens the Republican idea everywhere
to have it proved again that the people OF
France have learned to make their revolu-
tions in this way.

4 FREE CANAL.

The Legislature of 1879, as Auditor Schuy-
Ter suggests in his report has it in its power
TO take the first step toward making the canals
of the State free in 1881. A refusal to pass
the constitutional amendment which he urges
will delay the frultiOn of this idea until 1888,
npder the constitutional provision requiring
amendments to be passed upon the second
time by Legislature containing u new Sen
ate. Certainly the arguments which Mr..
Schuyler advances deserve the serious cOnsid-
Grafton of members who have it in their hands
TO hasten or retard a step which may be of
vital Importance TO the commercial supremacy
OF New York.
When provision was incorporated into the
Constitution directing that the surplus rev.
enues of the canals should pay the principal
and interest of the canal debt, the legislative
wisdom of that day did not foresee the vast
and intricate development OF the rail-
way system which Is visible to-day,
and did not, as a consequence, perceive the
future importance of waterways to the
State, not ~ the means OF producing petty
revenue, but as instruments TO protect COM
merce against cOnspiracies of greedy corpora
tions. This function of canals is becoming
more plainly manifest every day, in other
countries as well as in this, and the time
seems now to have arrived when this
great State must say whether 1t will
make its great waterway powerful
factor for tho general good or will leave it
hampered with antiQuated restrictions which
choke the tides Of trade. For the canals seem
now to haye reached n poipt which may be

THE CROIKERS SULKTyG.

1t was not strange that the Democrats and
Nationals in the Maine House of Representa-
tiyes should refuse to concur with the Senate
in the passage of resolutions congratulatng the
country upon the resumption of specie pay
ments and pledging themselves to oppose any
action against the maintenance of the same.
For these two parties, the Democrats as well
as the Nationals, had risked everything upon
the venture that resumption Mt this date was
New-York tribune., 1879-01-06

While the important movement to remove the
Sheriff, County Clerk, and Register of this County
is eminently commendable it is useless to conceal,
as some OF the more active members of the Bar
Committee attempt to do. that it originated in a
partisan and personal design in the interests
of Mr. TIlden and the anti rammany Demo-
Gratis But however ignobe the motive and
selfish the orioin of this reform measure it is one
which unselsh and genuine refOrmers Of all parties
ought to aid. There IS question that these cor
rupted Offices ought to be reorganIzed for the gen.
rral good 1t will be the fault of the general public
and of the independent press if Mr.. Tden and the
"Outs" of the Democratic party fill the places
without regard TO the general welfare. First let
get out the bad officers; then public opinion will
force the Governor 90 til their places with good
men without regard to individual or factious inter-
ests.

If the betting men of Raleigh are shrewd In
their predictions, North Carolina will disclose
the awful solidity of her Democracy by send
ing zebulon B. Vance to the United States
Senate. There are few men so typical of the
Solid South as Governor Vance, and it is,
on the whole, straightforward of North Caro-
lima to say just what she thinks.

II is hardly necessary to say that the cold weather
inAicts great suffering upon the homeless poor.
The number of persons gratuitOusly lodged III the
station houses of this city always becomes large as
the temperature becomes low-nearly 400 were ac-
commodated last Friday night, and about half OF
these were 1t is of no Use 10 mOraliZe with
a person who is freezing to death about his prodi-
gality and dissipation. Whether he is deserving
not, he must first be taken in and warmed. Again,
the number of persons pershing by cold in differ
ent parts of the country during the last few days
is a melancholy One-perhaps not less so because
good part of them under the influence of IN
toxicating liquors. The prejudice against tramps
has become so great, that possibly really de-
serving of relief may be neglected. With the ther-
mometer at zero, common humanity demands that
every human being exposed should be sheltered;
and public receptacles, of course, are the best.
II is surprising how long joke can be made to do
duty The wittlcsm about rum and missionaries
going to Africa in the same vessel is one of the most
venerable of the kind extant. Lately it has come
up as fresh as ever and is travelling through the
newspapers. In this case the particulars are care
fully given-there is one missionary and there are
500 900 gallons of rum. But what is singular Is that
we are not given the name either of the missionary
nor of the ship, yet of the port from which she
destined. 1t is observed i'll quite despOndeut way
that this is not a very good method of making
Africa religious but 1t may lsO be suggested that
it is better than the expectation Of 100000 gallons
OF rum and no missionary at ALL
General Grants reception at Dublin was n notable
one. The warm heart of Ireland extended to him
an earnest welcome, and his presence ex-

the story, but if so it has made no indelble I'M
preston upon the popular memory here.
The appointment of court officers by Judge Cow

The clerk of the weather has usurped the
functions of the Clerk OF the Assembly, and
declines to allow that body to organize after
its accustomed fashion. So many members are
blOckaded in the western part of the State by
the snow storms that hardly more than half Of
the Republicans of the Assembly have reached
Albany Ii Is considered hardly possible that
the Republican caucus can be held this even
ing. and it is even thought that it may be
necessary to infringe upon custom SO far rs to
adjourn the Assembly over one day without
electing a Speaker. Predictions as to the result
of the contest would be unseemly in the pres
ence of such highly supplementary conduct
ON the part of the weather, but one pleasant
fact is nOticeable-that the contest for the Re-
publican nomination does not take its tempera-
ture from the thermometer. 1t Is conducted
with the utmost cordiality. and no subsequent
thaying out of grudges will be necessary.
A Republican victory was looked for III the
elections for the French Senate which took
place yesterday, but not the splendid triumph
that has been achieved. Ii was expected that
