WHIr IS TIE CENTRAL PARK GOOD FoR1

WHIT IS TIE CENTRIL PARK GOOD FoR?
It has cost us somewhere near $l5, 5,000,000
And now what is it good for!
FiIst, and most plainly, it viii preserve a
large space in the midst OF the city free from
Buildings. 1t offers its people for all time to
come an opportunity to escape from buildings
into something like the open country. This is so
we'll understood tbat there is nothing III the bis
tory Of the undertaking winch IS now more
generally regretted or more frequently con-
denim / than the yielding of sites upon it for
the Museum Of Art and the Museum Of Ma
tural History. There is nothing upon which
the will OF the people is clearer than that no
further grants shall be made Of It's too con-
tracted area for buildings, whatever purpose
thcv may be wanted for. The chief defect OF
The park is that its open ycrdant spaces are too
few and TOO small. We have spent our money
L.yishly tomakc them as large a practicable, to
secure a certain degree Of rural cYpansc, ard
all else that has been done has been in wise
silLordination to this end. The roads the
walks. the rldes and tie sGbWays Tor crossing
the Park have been especially formed with
res5rd to tins object, and the use OF the sur
face ways lies in the opportunity Offered to
those who pass up0n them Of enjoying the
scenery. OF which the few limited open Ycrdant
spaceS are the most essential element.
What theu can be The sense Of the areu-
meut which has been addressed to the public
il faYor Of a proposition, said to come from
preliminary committee upon the proposed
Worlds Fair in this city, to build upon the
Park an extended series OF building, designed
for a great variety Of purposes, some OF vast
.izo. and many of which are deliberately pro-
pos.d at the outset to be permanent The
argument il that they would not "in tn"
.sli,htcst degree interfere with the public
walks and drives or deprive the citizens OF
.Ncw-YOrk Of an atom Of their present en-
"joyment"
No one can attempt TO forecast what wonld
result from the adoption of this proposition
without coming quickly to the conviction that
Tie ruin Of the Park for the purposes by re-
gard to which nearly all the expenditure
and all tho wise expenditure, upon 1t
mas been thus far directed, would be GER

THE Old cOyFEDERAJE LEADER.

Mr. Jefferson Davis has been good enough to
sure correspondent of The Boston HTGld-the as
surancc being made specially for the benefit OF the
Northern peOple-that che is not the devil they
have painted him that he has neither horns nor
hoOfs tuat Il they knew him they would find him
very mnch like ono of themselves" Mr.. Davis is
welcome TO his figures of speech; in them
selves, they are less Objectionable than
what he puts forward his facts. lie
seems to wish il to be understood that he
had no more to do with the Rebellion than thous-
anls of Others He also seems to think it an ex-
tcnuation Of his course that Z" the war would have
taken place without him rs inevitably rs it did
with him. II ~ difficult to see the forco Of this
extenuation which is like the plea of a
thief that if he had not stolen the
watch somebody else would have done 1t. Mr
Davis now finds modc5ty convenient and Is pleased
toundefrate his own abilities The war might have
taken place without him. but he gave to it the force
of his own abilities, the weight Of his Old official
positions the all and comfort of one known 70 the
whole country; and unless he has been
grossly slandcrcd he fully in the secrets
of the conspirator3 while still member of the Gov
ernment of the United States. He was solemDly
sworn to maintain the Constitution. lie was one
of its official guardians. To say that he might have
stoned the whole ncfarious business, might
have saved thousands of lives and millions
of treasure, might have Thought back the
seeding States to their senses, may be to
say too much; but we think that he,
with the aid Of two or three other men whom he
might have Influenced. was in a position to make
secession a mere episode. He was, at any rate, I'M
portant enough to be elected at and BY a SOFT
of accamation the first President OF the treason
hatcned Coufederacy.

The energy of the opposition made 10 Mr
Clarence Kings confirmation az Director Of
the Gcouaphical Survey shows how men OF
science WI! sometimes borrow the bitterness
of the politicians, and are not always above
using their weapons. \ Washington dispatch
takes up one Of the attacks, which Wds in fact
an assault upon Mr.. Kings moral character
and proves that it was entirely without founda-
tiOn.
With 10000 armed Bulgarians in Eastern

that the Province can be kept permanently

stand is crcditable to the nation which helped

would interrupt the pleasing spectacle OF a
Police Commissioner actually engaged III III

to add that he has been added to the Street

The position Of the English workman IS be-

reductions by which the employers gradually
force him down to the lowest living wages,
but with half the operatives of that town
starving he has no option but sullen submis-

Tomorrow, December 18th, will be
the anniversary Of the birth of Jesus
Christ, the founder of the Christian re-
ligion.s Though there is some doubt as
to the day and even the year of Christ's
birth, the 18th day of December is rec
oguized at present throughout the civ
ilized world as the day, and as such is
a legal holiday in all Christian conn
tries. As printers, as a class, believe
in complying with the laws and follow

morrow. Meantime the THE SILVER

Count Lobanoff, the new Russian
Ambassador to London, and successor
to Count Schouvaloff, who leaves Eng
land with the brilliant repute of being
the most fascinating foreigner seen in it
for a generation, is man of great
wealth, having inherited good deal of
the famous Potemkin property. His
carriage horses are grand animals, Tar
tars of the Ukraine breed" and he has
half dozen pages, sons OF chieftains OF
the Caucasus, intelligent and handsome
lads, dressed in their national costume.
His servants are all liveried in the cos
tune worn by the meuial kind in Che
time of Catherine the Great, but his
coachmen and footmen wear the mill
tary garb which was the vogue at the
Court of the first Alexander. This
half European, half Oriental state

The political millennium is at hand.
Intimidation of colored voters has
ceased in the South, and many of the
prosecuted, despised and down trodden
race OF few years ago have been elect-
ed by Democratic votes to responsible
offices in the Southern States. Maine
has followed the example OF Louisiana
in counting in those whom the Return
ing Boards wanted in office, not those
elected by the people, thus making the
extremes of the Union, the Pine Tree
and Pelican States exactly alike. Tam
many and the Republicans in New FORK
Mayor Cooper of that city, who is
known as Tilden Democrat, is APP
pointing Republicans to the highest
office in his gift. Grant, who CON-
smanded the armies which suppressed
the rebellion, is the choice for Presiden.
of Alexander FL. Stephens, who was Vice
President OF the Confederacy at the
: time it collapsed Grant is also said to
have strong following throughout the
South, and on the day of his reception
at Louisville, Kentucky, the Courier
Journal, the leading Democratic pa
!, per of the States South of the Ohio
river, had the following to- say of
him: "The man who became the
instrument of Providence for the
overthrow of the South in the
great war of the sections, and, there
after, the Executive appointed by the
North to carry out the system of recon-
struction ordered into being by the Re-
publican party, is, to-day, the guest of
acity, which is not merely the metrop-
oils Of the South, but in its politics
thoroughly Democratic, and in full
sympathy with the Southern view of
public affairs. Already the town rs
decked in his honor and presently,
multitudes of excited people, pleased
with themselves, and their enthusiasm,
will throng the streets to welcome him.
Truth, indeed, is stranger than fiction.
If ever was man bore to destiny, this
man surely was to play the part in
fairy tale (; to pass through vicissitudes
of fortune known only to fable-lan
and fable; to have honors thrust upon
him to be a defiance to all custom,
precedent and rule history unto
himself. We meet General Grant as
an American. We greet him as an
American. Putting aside those things
that have been, and reaching forth INTO
those things that are to come, standing
under our own vine and fig tree, with
the olive branch in one hand and the
flag of our country in the other, we
Join this warrior who has triumphed
over us in his hope that sectional bit

prosperity, the peace and honor of all

Miss Susan B. Anthony tells Chi
cago Tribune reporter that the woman $
suffrage cause is constantly getting slices
OF the loaf, and will eventually have all
of it. As to the present situation she
says; '.While the public agitation or
excitement in the movement seems to
be less than it was, the general public
sentiment is growing very rapidly in it's
favor. We have not gained suffrage
per Sc anywhere, but we have gained a
great many little points of considerable
Importance. The fact that six Legisla-
lures have granted the school suffrage
TO women shows the advance of public
sentiment, and the many women's be-
nevolent organizations are the results
of the education accomplished by the
woman suffragists, The women have

been taught to believe that woman
must do something for the elevation of
humanity, and not to be afraid to do
it. You may add to all this, too, the
opening Of all colleges, trades, and pro-
LESSONS to women as additional results
of our agitation"
