The population In the Fifth, Sixth and
Eighth Wards In 1878 was 10000. Accord
Ing 10 the returns made by Mr.. Cummings
the total population In these Wards snow
~, 479, showing an increase OF 10 during
the past year.
Prof. Hervey, who was selected to take
the enumeration for the First District,
comprisinRthe First, Second, Thlrd, Fourth
and Seventh Wards, has completed but one
Ward, the Seventh. The Professors du.
ties as Superintendent OF Schools occupy
a portion Of his time, preventing him from
progressing as rapidly with the work OF
taking the census as he might otherwise.
According to his figures the Seventh Ward
now has total population Of 1855. Last
year the population was 2,54l. There Is o
gain therefore Of IA In this Ward alone.
In 1878 there were S47 youth between six
and twenty.one years Of age reported for
this Ward, while this years figures are
9S2, an increase Of IS, II Is probable that
Messrs. Cummings and Hervey will sub

The Dishonest Mayor.

We have not only very shallow and in
competent man in the Office Of Mayor, but
also a man of the most unfair and dishonest
character. EDWARD COOPER has not been
generally known and understood hereto
fore. He is n charlatan-a prctcndcr 10 De-
mocracy-w without one drop of Democratic
blood in his veins or the element OF or
binary truthfulnces in his character.
The lctter addressed 10y Mr.. COOPER to the
Governor, and accompanying his certificate
of the removal OF three Of the Police Com
missioncrs, sinks him still lower than his
previous impotcnt but despotic acts.
without delaying to criticise that extra
ordinary document in detail to-day, let us
call attention to the patent insinccrity and
fragrant dishonesty Of its closing paragraph,
which is in the following words:
81 have. therefore. considered it duty to remove
JoEL u. EEiARnr. SIDNEY r. Nicnots. and WILLIAM p
from office believe that II neglected So to do
should my self be responsible for the continuance OF the
present condition Of the city and OF the abuses which
exist in the Police Department.
Now If, as Mr.. EDWARD COOPER says it is
from sense of duty that he removes these
three Commissioners, why does not the
same sense Of duty compel him to remove
"
CLINTON WHEELER Mr.. WHEELER is n
pleasant, good-naturcd man; but we think
no unparalleled person will say that
he Is better qualified than any other
Of the Police Commissioners I'm the
Board. Dirty streets have no effect
upon him. IT, as he alleges. the Mayor
were acting from sense Of duty, he would
feel quite as much bound to remove Mr..
WHEELER as any of the others. II he tells
the truth in reference to the others. then
he Is violating his oath OF Office In not re-
moving Mr. WHEELER.
But the Mayor is not telling the truth. II
Is not his conscience and his oath of Office he
is obeying, but his selfish political ambition
and his party masters.
In the name of the whole people we enter
a solemn protest against the despotic con-
duct OF the Mayor.
The Governor has appointed Wednesday
morning for the hearing before him.
The rights OF the Commissioners are the
rights Of all the people Of the state. For, II
the Commissioners are not entitled to fair
trial, according to law, then no person is ;
and If they can be condemned and punished
in q tyrannical manner SO also may any
other person In the State.
II EDWARD COOPER would like TO know
| how he stands in the estimation Of the cit
| liens Of New York, we wish he might run,
tomorrow against Major-Gen. WILLIAM f.
SMITH for the Office OF Mayor He would be
outstrippcd in the race by the brave and
renowned General, as the owl by the eagle.

The story of the Poncns.

To the category Of the Ncz Percis, the
Bannocks, tho Shoshoncs, tho Northern
Cheycnncs, and the other tribes whose sad
histories have disgraccd the HAYES Admin
istration, the Poncas must now be added.
1t is true that the sulerings of the Poncas
from the ignorance, neglect, and rapaclty Of
Government agents dates back al least to
the GPANT rf0ime In ls73and 1874, CHARLES
p BIRKETT had charge Of these Indians
lie asserts that he had to pay ont Of his
own pocket $50 900 10 keep them from starry
ing. In the Smdry Civil bill Of last year,
this and half dozen other old claims were
provided for by neutrality-suspicious., that
Of BIRKErr amounting 10 S3G,00l. Inspector
HAMMOND reported, however that BIRKErr
could not produce satisfactory evidence to
support his claim, and that the agent who
succeeded him had found the agency in n
most wrctchcd condition, with absolutely
nothing on hand.
This was n trivial detail in Ponca export
eucc. Shortly after HAYES came into power
IL was determined 30 move the Sioux upOn
the Ponca reservation, on the Missouri
River, in southern Dakota, and to scnd the
latter to the Indian Territory This was
done without regard to the wishes, mtcr-
ests, or rights Of tho Poncas. They had
learned, ON their reservation, TO cultivate
the soil, to 1.-Two in log cabins and frame
buildings; they had horses, cattle. mills,

The Death of Judge RObinsOn-John Van
Buren,.

Judge HAMILTON w. ROBINSON was gen.
orally esteemed as a careful, correct, and
crudite lawyer. His death brings to mind
one who, for many years, held n very con-
spicuous position in the public affairs Of the
state and the nation. We refer to Judge
RoBINsoNs former law partner, the late
JONI VAN buren,.
We believe no other man in the State was
ever born TO such advantages as JOIN VAN
BUREN's. His father, MARTIN VAN buren,,
though he attained TO the high Office Of
President of the United States, never eli
joycd that kind Of personal popularity which
always waited upon his favorte son. Tho
father was courteous, but cool and eau
tious. The son was free, social, and conv
vial. as well as audacious and full Of the old
Jacksonlan sentiment of ~ take the re-
sponsibility.'
When a young man, JOHN VAN buren, was
elected Attorpey-General OF the State and
distinguished himself in the prosecution Of
some Of the ant-renters He was man
whom the people delighted to honor, and at
that time no young man in the State seemed
10 have more brilliant prospects before him.
In 1s43 he canvassed several States In sup
port Of the Free Soil ticket MARTIN VAN
BURES for President. and CHARLES FRANCIS
ADAMS for Vice President. We consider the
speeches he made at that time as surpass-
ing in force and brillancy any other series
Of stump speeches ever made In the country
Had Mr.. VAN buren, adhered to the po-
litical principles he then avowed he might
not mprobably have become President But
he soon lapsed into IIunkerlsm without
bolng ablelto give any satisfactory reason
for his course; and the people reluctantly
came to tho conclusion that he was too
! little governed by conscientious convictions,
! in public affairs, although his personal in
| tegrity aud honor remained untamishcd.
When JOIN VAN buren, came to this city
and entered upon the practice OF his proIes-
sion, his father hoped he would devote him
seis to il and become the first lawyer Of his
\ time, But his natural taste for politics was
so strong that he gave little attention, com
paratiyoly, to the law, and left 1t TO his ami
able and industrious partner, HAMILTON W.
RoBINsoN, to do most Of the work in their
cases.
We hope that fitting eulogy on Judge

GOING TO ROME 10 DIE.
Gen. CHribaIdrs Visit 10 the Eternal CIty-A
Scene at the Depot.

LONDON, April THE correspondent Of
the TdueS at Rome says: Now that the wild
rumors as TO the object Of Gen. Garibaldi's visit
to Rome have proved groundless, it is asserted
that he has come to die in the city, to attain
which for italy all his striyings were directed.
His friends distinctly assert that politics Rro
wholly unconnected with his coming here. IIo

prcrH. and thought tho mineral springs near
Ciyta Necchln might benefit his govt. Carl
baldi, replying to the Syndic, who visited him
ON his arrival, said he did not himself know
the reason Of his visit. A more pathetic scene
than that on GnribNldi's arrival at the railroad
station has seldom beon bchcld. Shouts wcro
raised us the train entered tho station, but they
were speedily silenred 10y tho circulation of a
report that the General was ill., He was carried

hard to move tho General that at Clyita Ncechia
the side of the railroad saloon had to be cut to
