NJ. Ferry perceive as Mr.. Smaey has report

assert that Franco is itself largely to blame
for English supremacy on the lower Nile.
Certainly il was not through any fault OF Eng

POSSIBLE NE II YORK.

What great city Ncw-YoIll might be made
if its rulers werc wise and far-sccng. Its
natural advantages arc absolutely unrivallcd
Not another great city on tho globe has such
natural facilities for shipping, for drainage and
health. for economy in manufacture or for
swift dispatch Of business. I'm spite OF all the
dismal mistakes made in past years. in spite of
the neglect Of many golden opportunities and
tho waste Of franchises which may now in
vove a cost of millions TO the people, this
splendid city yet has within its reach imperial
and marvellous possibilities.
A political society has absolute control Of
Ncw-York. II is here, and it rules whether
we like its principles or not. For years to
come, in all probability the future of New
York will depend upon the action OF that or
ganzaton. It's leaders are not dull or foolish
men; If they were, the power they now hold
would not be in their hands. Some of them
arc substantial citizens who have property and
extensive business interests. and private as well
as public motives would naturally prompt them
to do what they could TO realize the magniG-
cent possibilities of Ncw-York If they only
take large views, and look beyond the day and
its passions and pejudices 10 the long future
they can make for themselves name which
will live and for the city 4 measure Of pros
perity such a. few imagine The political or
ganzation which controls Ncw-Yorl, has its
natural aspirations for influence in National
affairs. Heretofore it has been greatly en-
barrassed by the fact that in times past things
have been DONE in the namc and through the
power of Tammany Hall, which would not bear
criticism. The men Of to-day have an oppor-
tunity 10 make for the organization a record
which will blot out from the memory OF men
all past errors or shortcomings. If they do
what is within their power to do for this city,
they will accomplish more for the political in
fucnce OF their organization in the State and
in the Nation than any one Of them imaeincs
New-York wants much and is abundantly
able to pay for all it wants. If hundred
millions should be spent in making this the
most convenient. prosperous and beautiful city
in the world. the mere increase in value Of
properly would pay all the cos; without addi-
tiona burden to anybody. Not real estate
owner IN the city, not a merchant doing bust
ness here not manufacturer within the limits
OF New ork not capitalist who uses the
facilities Of This great financial centre wouId
fail to share in the benefits resulting. or would
hesitate to pay his full proportion of all the
cost il only New-York could be made what
it ought to be-the one unrivalled and unap-
proachable city in the world. Mr. Croker aud

expected to be dropped. But Gleason has tho
archives, and so long as he retains them tho
triumph OF Sanford will not be complete
But though Gleason dies hard we cannot
truhfully say that he dies majcSticllly. When
the popuacc burst into his presence Yesterday
morning he distinctly ANNOUNCED that he was
about TO kill somebody but the moment that
squad of traitors in police uniform appeared
upon the scene, with orders 10 set him ont on

French susceptibility respecting English su-
prcmacy in Egypt is something more than a
pan oXysmal freak of jealousy. Priority of claim
ought naturally to be recognized in interna-
tional disputes, and in this respect the English
have no case We do not refer to the first
invasion and conquest of Egypt by Napoleon.
That was bold, strategic play in game Of
universal conquest 1t carried with it no
sequence OF moral obligation on the part OF
European states 10 recognize the right OF the
French people to control the course of cviliza-
ton on the lower Nile. There are. however,
valid historic claims. II was France that was
intimately associated with the cause Of Egyptian
independence and with Mehemet Ais European
reforms. For fifty years French genius left its
impress upon the civil service and the public
works of Egypt. The Suez Canal was eX
clusively a French work undertaken and car
RED to completion in the face Of English crit
cism and opposition. If French remains after
decade of British supremacy the official Ian
ruage of the Government it is a witness to
priority of claim on the part of one of the
Western rivals to direct the march OF progress
on tho Nile.
In these circumstances the French would be
more than human il they could regard without
resentment Engands encroachment upon what
was their own domain. Supremacy in Egypt
was once theirs 1t is now England that holds
the first place and is determined not to sur
render it, although her Ministers when they
acquired il were loud in their prOtestations
of dsinterestedness. II would be unrcason-
able to expect Frenchmen to reconcile them
selves to accomplished facts 80 distayteful to
