case of Ellis tho Asbury Park burglar, who had
been looting u large number of houses In that

The reproof which the Governor undertook
to administer to the Senate yesterday, lor
failing to act on the nomination of Mr. Murtha
as Emigration Commissioner, is a case OF the
pot calling the kettle black. There IS no
excuse, of course, for the Senate's refusal
TO consider the nomination. 1t should have
been rejected promptly. But why, In the
first place. did the Governor send in the name
of such a man as Murthaf The nominee is
Mclaughlin Democrat in everything that the
term implies. In his hands Castle Garden wouid
have been used for all it was worth 10 inc

much quarrelling as at present, but there
would have been just as much Jobbery ior

The most important development in the
closing hours of the session of the Legislature
was the quarrel between the Governor and
the Tammany Senators. Through the votes
of the latter, the last nominations sent in were
shung up'-that is, were referred to commit
tees, from which they did not emerge. Mr..
Grady charged that in nominating Mr.. Muir
tina for Emigration Commissioner the Gov
ernor was irving to pay OF political debt &c
Senator Jacobs, at the expense Of other more
deserving party Misunderstanding Tammany
of course. Granting that Mr.. Grady's point
Of view is correct, his wrath is natural enough.

The Citizens Temperance Committee was
able to make an eminently satisfactory report
last night at the Steinway Hall meeting. Since
it was appointed, on February 26, it has
stirred up some of the municipal authorities IN
a way that has brought about excellent results.
The excise and kindred laws have been en-
forced in New-York City recently as they had
not been before in years, and one Of the most
powerful influences to this end has been the
Citizens Committee The decision to persist
in their efforts for the suppression of crime and
vice Will give widespread satisfaction among
all reputable people. The line they have laid
down to folow-agitation in behalf of a new
excise law-has the right direction.

If the Police Commissioners wish to defend
Captain Williams and Captain Allaire against
the presentment Of the Grand Jury, it is their
privilege but all the " firm belief that the
officers have done their duty" which they ex-
press does not alter the fact that we'll known
gambling houses and other disorderly places
flourish in the precincts of these captains, and
that when they are suppressed it is generally
by private societies or private detectives work
ing without the knowledge of the police.
When the captains do their duty so well that
the Society for the Suppression OF Vice and the
Society for the Prevention of Crime have no
reason for being, then it win be time for them
70 abuse Mr. Counstock and Mr.. Whitney per-
,haps but not until then.

If the Democrats had lived up to their plat
form pledges in the Legislature, the passage of
a Civil Service bill by them would not haye
seemed so incongruous. The measure, so far
as it goes, is well enough; but when we look
first On the record of the Assembly and tho
Senate ana then on this poor little bill rushed
through Just before the adjournment, it is inn
possible not to conclude that the act is only
sop thrown to respectable Democrats and in
tended to be used as party capital in the next
canvass But it will not work; itwould require
more than this one Civil Service measure to
Offset the legislation of the session. most of
which has been based on exactly opposite prip-
ciples. Messrs. Andrew ID. White, Augustus
Schoonnaker and Henry A. Richmond have
been confirmed as Commissioners under the

A QUIET MARRIAGE.

mr. BerEling nnd Miss johnson, Who
Failed 10 Appear When the Day Was
Set for Their Union In May, Are Quietly
Married and start on n Bridal Tour.
Miss Ida johnson is the daughter of pros
porous butcher living at the corner Of Fourth
and streets northeast. She is very pretty
blonde and has made many friends by her
charming manners. Among her many ad-
mirers was a young man of good address
named Henry Bergling. They had known
each other since childhood, and when they
approached the age when their minds took u
love turn they plighted their troth, Miss
johnson is by faith Lutheran, while Mr..
Bergling is Catholic
They had arranged to be married on tho
twenty-ninth of May last and accordingly
invitations were sent out to their friends to
the number of 400. Dr. Domer, the pastor of
the Reformed Lutheran church, was selected
TO perform the ceremony, and ON the night
named the church was filled to its utmost ca
pacity. The reverend doctor was ready to
perform the marriage ceremony, and o'clock
was set rs the hour but although the guests
waited the coming of the couple until after 8
o'clock they failed to put in their ap-
pearance. Inquiry at the homes Of the
pair revealed the fact that n conflict Of
faiths had prevented the ceremony, Mr..
Bergling refusing to be married in the Lu-
theran church, while Miss johnson would not
consent to be married by priest The
parents of Miss Johnson were justly indig-
nant at the treatment their daughter had
received from Mr.. Bergling, and refused to
allow n reconciliation, although both young
people desired it.
Not satisfied, however, with the turn of
affairs, and believing as lovers do that they
were made for each other, the young people
set about making explanations and arranged
for clandestine meeting. Everything must
have turned out all right, for a marriage IL
cense was issued yesterday to Mr.. Bergling
and Miss johnson, and at IL o'clock yesterday
morning Miss johnson changed her name TO
that of Bergling. The d:30 train carried Mr..
and Mrs. Bergling 10 the sea shore on their
honeymoon. They We're married at the Me-
mortal church by the Rev. DIR. Butler. When
reporter called at the residence of Miss
Johnsons parents last night he found the
folks smiling, and declaring that they did
not know how the young people managed Ia
arrange their differences, but that they evi
