THERE is or should be an ecu ity in
the conduct of public business. Some
OF the owners of land adjacent to the
Almshouse, hope to make money by
Its removal through the rise In the price
But they do not remember that this
would be putting twenty-five acres OF
lots in the market to compete with the
price OF other peoples lots who are not
in favor OF removal. Those twenty two
acres will reduce the price OF every lot
that is for sale on either side Of them
twenty per cent, and keep the price
down for five years TO come because
twenty two acres is as great an area of
land as is covered with buildings in the
city for five and sometime ten years.
To be sure it may raise the price of the
few acres around Mr.. Bush's brick ward:
but 10 one supposes that he would
favor the removal for this reason. Not
at all. he Is entirely disinterested
We believe the county has enough on
its hands just now, and should not run
any farther into debt; and we would not
be honest if we did not say so.

VANDEvER AVENUE AND THE p.
w. & B.-The excellent spirit of the
remarks of Mr.. Sharpley in the City
Council ought to go far to prove thai
that body was conservative in its de
sires, and ready to do all that wal
reasonable and right for the public
good. .'
Now, we have no fault to find with
the opponents to granting the railroad
the use of Vandever avenue. They
hold their objections fairly on busi
ness principles. They apprehend dan
ger to public travel should the loco
motive be allowed upon that avenue.
This is a reasonable objection. But
then we find locomotives running
through the city on the east and south,
and they run through the streets of
Philadelphia, Baltimore and New
York, and every city south of the lat
ter. Now if the City Council can get
an agreement from the Railroad Com
pany to pave and curb the avenue and
keep it in repair just as Philadelphia
requires of the city railways, we think
the company should be granted the
right to pass over the Avenue.

Mr.. Seymour adds in a note:-
while our numbers are the largest, it
must be borne in mind that our great
cities, and most of those of a smaller
size, are situated in the Northern
half of the Union, where the winters
are very cold and the summers very
hot, and that they are supported by
States whose united population are
not equal to those of the above named
European countries. Great Britain
is not brought into this statement, as
no city can compare with London.
Leaving that and New York out of
view, our cities are larger and more
numerous than those of the United
Kingdom. Their growth is so much
more rapid than that of towns else
where that the census made this wear
will show that the number with more
than thirty thousand people should be
much larger than l have stated in the
foregoing table,"

THE Nesos is certainly entitled to
the credit it claims for service rem
dered in routing out the gambling
policy shops. But SO far as we can
hear and see from the police reports
this extends to the dens of negroes.
The Mayor very properly had the edi-
tors and reporters Of that paper sum-
moned to testify at the trial of these
negroes, supposing that as they bad
pointed out the negro dens they had
some evidence by which they could
prove their c. argos. But it appeared
that they either knew nothing or re-
fused to testify against their allies.
However, the police had arrested
enough negroes in Lewis gambling
den to furnish sufficient evidence to
prove the kind of house he kept and
business he followed, and he was ac-
cordingly punished by fine and i'm
prisonment, from which we are told
in the Republican he has been re-
leased on bail. Now, had a Demo-
cratic gentleman or newspaper in
formed ON this negro den the accusa
tion would have been made that
prejudice caused it. We don't know
that IT, Netos can do better service
to the negro allies of it's party than
to point out the various negro shops
where liquor is sold without license
just as it has done with the negro
policy shops. The GAZETTE did not
know that negro policy shop existed
In the city. But if it had and pointed
it out the Republican would have de-
nounced the police for raiding it, Just
because it knew the negroes were Re
publicans, and the white policemen
were Democrats. So the Neus has
rendered this one service at least for
which it was entitled to 'blow" to the
extent of half column yesterday.
