| The nertlnac;ous Committeeman who are
still insisting that they must be allowed to
conGscate Central Park for the purposes OF
| an International Fair,wIll find several points for
reflection in the letter we print to-day from an
old Park Commissioner. Mr.. HOgg cites a num-
her of instances in which it was attempted
TO divert the parks from their original and
proper plan, and usually for some public oh
iect quite as laUdabe in its way as the Exhi-
| btion itself. In each case it was decided that,
| the property having been devoted to public
purpose il could not be diverted TO any other
| use without the consent of all the persons
| originally assessed for the COST or, in other
words, without the individual consent
| of every taxpayer in Ncw-GOrk. In
one case, where permission was asked
to hold a horticultural exhibition, it was
decided that no admission fee could be
charged within the parks which are wholly
| free to the people. The situation may be
stated thus: /. The Park Commissioners will
not give Genital Park for Fair; 2. II they
| should Weld it their action would doubtless
be held to be illegal; 3. If they should give
it and their action be sustained, 1t might
| still be held unlawful 80 charge an admission
fee within the Park. On the whole, wouldn't
it be well to drop the Park scheme at oncef
Oar Washington dispatches give some curl
Gus facts concerning the carclessness DIS
played in making up the electoral returns
even in 1876 wneu for four months the
Presidency hung trembling on the knife
! : oh
have been supposed that Electors would OBJ
serve the last letter and punctuation mark of
| the law, and would not endanger success by
permitting the slightest iniormallty But, on
! the contrary, there were many such mpcr-
! fections all of which cond have been avoided
by little study of the laws. From twelve
! States came returns which lacked the required
| Endorsement on the envelope. In other words,
they purportCd on the outside TO be
private letters TO the VicePIesident. On one
return there was not even Il legible postmark
to fix its origin, and it was traced back
| through the postal registry. In the returns
| from five States the certificate of appointment
| of the electoral messenger, winch is the Wee
Presidents guarantee that the packet handed
| HIM is authentic, was mclOsed within the
sealed envelope containing the returns, and
so could not be had until the returns were
| opened. There were various other irregulari-
| ties of the same sort. 1t may be SAID that
these are trihing and technical infOrmalities
which would never be allowed to defeat an
election But it should not be forgotten that
an objection to the vote of one Of the States
in 1876 was founded upon one of these same
trivial errors. While we have the electoral
system let us observe the last iota of the law.

A Washington dispatch announces that
Secretary Sherman will propose a common
sense way out of the silver dollar dilemma
He will ask that the coinage of the present
standard dollar te suspended and the huge
accumulations in the Treasury vaults be re-
coined into dollars containing sufficient silver
to make them equal in value to gold dollars
and keep the two coins i'll circulation to-
gether. The Secretary will show that this
can be done practically without expense to
the Government. The President will support
this sensible suggestion in his Message.
The Greek question is fast taking the place

is not quite ready to take part in another
demonstration. Italy will probably fol-
