GoYERNok HILLS EXTRA SESSION.

Governor Hills extraordinary course con-
corning the State Census will not ada
anything to his chances of again becoming
Governor of this State. The Constitution
provides that census shall be taken
every ten years @under direction OF the
Legislature" Existing statutes which have
been in force for forty years provide how the
census shall be taken, and that the Secretary OF
State shall appoint the enumerators. Cover
nor Hill, who has a keen scent for patronage,
asked the Legislature to change the law, so as
to give the appointment of enumeratOrs to the
various County Clerks. The only reason Tor
such a change, diffusing responsibility among
sixty persons, instead of having one head, was
TO enable the Democratic County Clerks III
New York, Kings and other counties to provide
places for their party friends. The Legislature
sensibly ignored this preposterCus recon-
mendatiOn.
The Governor then thought to gain point by
compelling the enumerators, who serve for
few days only, to undergo Civil Service ex-
aminations. The Secretary of State agreed
with him i'll that respect and the Civil Service
Commission, by the Governors orders included
the enumeratOrs in the nOn-cOmpetuye
schedule After time the Governor changed
his mind again, and contrary to the advice OF
the Civil Service Commission, he ordered that
the 'enumerators should undergo competitive
examinations. This would entail a useless ex-
pense of 81 900. He sought also to compel
the Legislature to pass a law to provide for
mere enumeration of the inhabitants, without
at the same time gathering certain essential
statistics of industrial growth, as has been done
81 Job 'nnui artn ~
that the United States Government had agreed
to pay over 100000, over half the expense of
gathering such useful statistics, the Legislature
wisely paid no heed to such recommendation.
1t passed a Census Appropriation bill pre-
cisely similar to that adopted by the Demo-
cratic Assembly of 1875, and which was APP
proved by Governor Tilden, and under which
the Democratic Secretary of State took the
census in that year. The existing law was
modified, however, so as to simplify the
schedules and largely to reduce the cost of the
census. Governor Hill assuming greater
wisdom than Governor Tilden and his prede-
cessors who had approved similar bills, vetoed
the one passed this year. In doing so he en-
deavored to usurp legislative functions by COM
polling the Legislature to follow his narrow
ideas instead of acting on those approved by
Governor Tilden and his predecessors. Gov
ernor Hill has now taken the extraordinary
course of adding many thousands of dollars to
the public burdens by converting the Legisla-
ture in extra session. As his course in vetoing
the Census bill was entirely indefehsble, the
Republicans can do no more than pass the same
bill over again and adjourn. That will afford
the Governor an opportunity to crawl out OF
the exceedingly small hole into which he has
got himself and it is probable that by this time
he has acquired sufficient wisdom to ask for
nothing mOIe.

THE CAPTURE OF REL.

The capture of Riel presumably marks the
collonse of the half-breed rebellion in the
Northwest. and shows that the rebels were
comnletely disheartened by the four days
fighting at Batouche According to the latest
DISPATCHES Riel's force has scattered, and while
numbers of the half-breeds have already come
in and surrendered, those who still hold out
have no longer organization, leaders or plans.
Gabriel Dumont, Riel's most active and capable
lieutenant, is yet at liberty, but 1t Is Deleveu
that he is in hiding and that he has no force
with him. The Indians of POundmakers re-
serve will probably abandon the contest as soon
as they learn that the half-breed rising Is put
down, and that they themselves, therefore, VIII
have to withstand the whole forces OF the Do
minion. But the capture of Riel opens up
fresh difficulty for the Government according
to part of the Canadian press.
A Winnipeg dispatch observes that RiePs
capture will seriously embarrass the Domln-
ion Government that "they can not
chang or shoot him, on account of the sympathy
q felt for him by the French in Quebec, and they
- can not let him go without raising storm
u in the rest of Canada" If this is correct
representation it indicates n serious condition
of affairs In the Dominion. or course the only
ouestion should be as to RePs guilt. III that is
established, there ought to be no room for hest
tation rs to the inhiction of the punishment
assigned to his crime. But if the Government
dare not punish rebel taken in arms because
of the sympathy felt for him by an important
part of the Canadian people, the inference must
be that British rule in the Dominion is much
less firmly established than has been supposed,
and that the Government apprehends much
more formidable outbreak than that of the half
breeds and Indians.
Nor does it seem a case in which any Govern
ment can we'll afford to temporize. The present
rebellion is believed by many to be direct out
come of the clemency extended to kiel after
the Red River rising. His escape then certainly
must have strengthened the suspicion that the
Government was afraid of him, and if he were
allowed or assisted to escape now he would be
given prestige constituting direct Indictment
to further Instruction.

THE RUSSIAN DEMANDS.

Russia is higgling for little more territory.
The frontier conceded by England was practc-
ally identical with NJ. Lessars line Penjdeh
was surrendered TO those who had won il by
treachery and dishonesty; Chaman-i-Bald was
made the dividing line on the kushk; and
Zulfkar Pass was agreed upon as the western
landmark near the Persian frontier. Russia,
after gaining everything which NJ. Lessar had
ventured to appropriate when he altered
General Skobeleff's map of Central Asia, now
asks for more territory at one end of the line
and for stronger position in the direction Of
Maimena. Having succeeded III caving in the
frontier from the Sarakhs line and in securing
all the commanding positions in the three val
leys leading to Herat, the war party now de-
liberately proposes further territorial encroach-
ments from Penjdeh eastward to the Oxrrs at
Khoia Saleh. This is the version which our
London correspondent gives of the new Russian
demands. If 1t be true that the main point at
issue is neither the precise extent OF the
PenJdeh district nor the occupation of the en-
frances to Zullikar Pass, but new line of in
vasion meDacng Cabul, it is not strange that
Mr.. Gladstone is reticent and the Government
are in sore perplexity.
These new demands, irritating as they must
be to Lord Granville and CALLING to British
pride, are not of sufficient Importance TO i'm
peril the peace negotiations. The rectiiicatiOn
of NJ Lessars line and even its extension
to the Oxus may require repeated con-
ferences at the London Foreign Ohce and may
swell the budget of diplomatic correspondence,
but the result is not open to doubt The
Russians will succeed in securing complete con-
troll of the Southern as well as the northern
entrance of ZulGkar Pass, if they persist in their
demands and the outlying villages of the
Penideh district will also be included in the
settlement if NJ dc Gers asks for them and
in like manner the line from Penjdeh TO Khoja
Saleh may be bent back toward Cabul. The
Ameer having expressed unwillingness to be
drawn into campaign for the recovery of
Penjdeh, and having assented in advance to a
boundary running through Zulfikar, Acrobat
and Maruchak, will not change his policy for
the sake of few paltry villages or superior
strategical position in so open and defenceless q
country as Western Afghanistan.
England is in tho awkward position Of having
an ally who is willing to concede every demand
that is made by its aggressive rival. The
Ameer prefers to surrender territory from
which he derives only scanty revenue rather
than give the signal for a devastating war in
his dominons and take the risks OF rising of
dsahected clans against British army. Under
the circumstances England has either TO COM

Mr.. Gladstone's decision respecting irish
legislation is greatly to be regretted. Inc
Crimes act is to be renewed with all the pro-
visions which have been of real utility in re-
storing the supremacy of British law carefully
retained The rejection of many features
which were originally denounced by the lrlsh
members will not conciliate them now. 1t VIII
remain a stringent measure of coercion and VIII
encounter opposition every whit as bitter as the
old act aroused. The abandonment OF the
Local Government and Land Purchase Diils
will enable Mr.. Parnell to 60 before the irish
constituencies with the plea that remedial legls-
lation is at an end and that nothing but coercion
and force bills can be expected even IRON
Liberal Government. The visit OF the Prince
of Wales following period of profound tram
quillity in the island gave the Ministry an OPP
portunity for timely concessions that would have
been we'll received. Unfortunately the Crimes
act alone is in reserve.
