the Land Leagues, have caused the sympathles
of the American people to go out largely to
the English leaders, who are honestly Jealous
to reform the abuses of the Irish land system,
but who are determined that the laws shall
first be enforced. This is side issue, how
ever. The simple fact is that the condition
of affairs between England and Ireland, were
it much worse than it is, is not such
that the United States can or should
AXE any official cognizance of it, least of all
such as to justify expressions OF opinion on
the part of State Legislature. The resolu-
ton adopted last night is impertinent and
foolish, and an offence to the dignity of the
State of New York. Mr.. AlvOrd talked an
amount OF PLAIN sense on the subject. which
the Assembly was clearly incapable of digest
ing. We congratulate him on being one OF ten
sensible members in last nights House.

TIE NATURALIZfTION FRIUDS or 1868.
Certain testimony that was taken before
United States Commissioner Lyman, in this
city on Saturday, calls to mind things that,
though they happened two years ago. seem
now like ancient history. The testimony
came in in course of the investigation
of the charges against John !. Davenport,
Chief Supervisor of Elections. 1t may DO re-
membercd that little less than two years
ago, when the present Congress bounced into
existence with hungry howl, one of the two
or three cardinal doctrines to which the creed
of Democracy had been reduced was
that John /. Davenport WAS a despot
whose principal business it was to
keep honest Democrats from the excr-
else Of their rights Mt tie polls. A Demo-
Cratic House had already pronounced him a
foe to free institutions, and made his tyranny
the subject of Onc of It's many Investigations.
But in this rs in other cases it had found out
more than it wanted to, and with its curiosity
somewhat appeased, dropped the inouiry.
In the Senate the Democrats now found
themselves. for the first time in twenty years.
in majority, aud FASTENED TO distinguish
themselves by pushing tho inquiry. Senators
Wallace and Eaton, both Of whom are on tho
point of retiring from public life, were ex-
ceedingly anxious to investigate Davenport
and show him to the country ms Dol bad man,
who was doing great mischief in Obstructine
Democrats on their way to the polls. Mr..
Wallace, as chairman Of the Select Committee
on Election Frauds. started out on Davenport's
trail with the greatest enthusiasm. All tbe
Democratic Senators were very much in
earnest about it and great things were ex-
pccted from it.
But somehow they seemed to lose their in
tercst in it after a short pursuit. What has
become of their investigation or its results we
do not know. The present hearing is on
charges that were brought at the instance of
New-York City Democrats, we believe, to pro-
cure Davcnport's removal from office, and
the testimony to which we refer is in the
course of that proceeding. 1t is the testimony
OF Mr. Patrick Goff. aud relates TO the charac-
ter of Davenpor's tyranny and the
class of honest Democrats whom he

get prompt information to keepers or faro
banks and policy shops when warrants are
issued DIR. Crosby is not the first who has
suspected this Whoever does this duty does
it well. In fact it is done more
promptly and efficiently than almost anything
else about the Police Courts. For such services
as these perhaps respectable citizens may not
think Police Court salaries too high But then
it should be remembered that gamblers and
other swindlers who escape arrest are not I'M
grateful, and even if the salaries were cut
down, court assistants and attendants might
still be n little way above want. At the
present rate of pay even O subpena-server
gets more than State Senator or Assembly,
man. And yet there seems to be no universal
outcry for the raising of Legislative salaries.
The fact is that in extravaganza, waste, ir-
efficiency and, it may be feared, to some ex-
tent corruption, our Police Court system Is
relic of the Tweed times. The Police Courts
were then stronghOds of the Ring. SInecure
was piled on snecure, extravaganza on eX-
travagance, and the tools of Tweed and Con-
molly grew rich on the spOils. In those
days these Courts were used with the
utmost freedom TO shield criminals VINO
could be useful to the Ring, and to crush
men who were hostile to it. Of course there
has been Improvement since then. But there
is room for much more. The expenses should
be LARGELY reduced, the character of the bench
should be exalted, the friends of faro banks,
lotteries and RrOggeres should be weeded out,
and partisan influence i'll favor of violatOrs
of the law should be suppressed.

The House has cut down the appropriation for
printing the consular reports, under the
system devised by Secretary Evarts, from
$22, 1000, the sum desired, to $1,000. The
Senate Committee is considering the wisdom
of putting it back at the original figure. 1t
should be done. The value of these reports
Is such that Congress ought not to be allowed
to impair it by stingy appropriation.

Public school officers who are ambitious to
prescribe for the young persons under their
Jurisdiction O course of study which shall
cover the entire range of human knowledge,
would do. well to reflect that pupils who
graduate at the age of thirteen years are not
sufficiently mature to acquire truly eucyclo-
pedic education. New-Jersey has well-ad-
ministered system of public instruction but
from some statistics elsewhere given it will
be seen that although the schools are free,

their teens. IL the average American school
boy rlishes over his course as rapidly as his
New-Jersey brother. committeeman, super1n-
tendents and teachers the country over should
bear this fact in mind when laying out the
common school curriculum.
It is somewhat Illuminating to be compelled
to announce that the Assembly of this State
passed last night. by vote of 81 to 10,
resolution expressing sympathy with Ireland
" in her present struggle with England" This
was ip thin house, but the overwhelming
vote leaves no reason to hope that there might
have been a different showing If there had
been full attendance. Indeed, the resolution

TO be hoped that the demagogues who
