THE secret sessions of the senate are not in acconlance with its demands for open corres- pondence on the part of the president; but there was never but one wholly consistent principle and that died six months before it was born. Tuere is a great deal of talk about an alder man who buys silver of burglars and sends it to the melting-pot; but we must remember that the weather during the past few weeks has been exceedingly changeable and disa- greeable, Pant of a prayer by a railroad director—'* It seems to me, oh Lord, that you ought to rear- the commandments so that I might sly make as much money on Sundays as on other days; and then there's the folly sometimes called the golden rule—it’s infer- nally singular that it wasn't abolished long pm Tue Jevoe is excessively pained to learn that a New York alderman has acted as afence for thieves; and the more so as the gentleman plays poker, and the better to do so melts down silver and puts that in both the legitimate and the improper pot. That is a depth of villainy that almost equals the capacity of his surrep- titious sleeve.

The investigation into the Pan-Electric busi ness can by no possibility show anything f the relief of the parties accused. Mr. land accepted stock for which he paid noth- ing, and the whole object of giving him stock was to secure his influence as a senator. If when he became the attorney-general he had returned his stock he would still have been avoided the scandal which has so weakened him, and the administration to which he be longs, in public estimation. His retention of it shows that, even if it were to be admitted that he is honest, he is unwise to the last degree and totally unfit for the position he holds; and it is one of the most curious things in the politics of the day that the president should not have sent him adrift immediately upon the discovery of his foolishness—if we may be permitted to use the most charitable of the terms that fit his case.

Compounding a felony ought to be quite as much a crime on the part of the authorities as on that of a tizen. How often this is done by the authorities of this city—how ‘ten, moreove minals of “high degree” are permitted by the authorities to wander abroad, like Sheriff Davidson and the Billy Malonies—the JUDGE c the present moment; but the d e the same records at thi that they had in the time of Tweed, and the voluntar: exiles—those who go abroad to save themselves from state prison—are almost as large in num ber as t i In the case of Alderman Jaehne there are some startling development Inspector Byrnes knew he had acted as a fence for thieves. The district attorney's office knew it. He had bought silver ware which he e dently kn had been stolen, and had sent it to the melting-pot after the manner of other fences. He paid hush money to the extent of over a thousand dollars and thereby escaped arrest. His crime is bad enough; but what shall be said of the crime of the authorities of the city, who receive large salaries to execute the law and who certainly have no right to be the confederates of fences? There is rot tenness here which the people will not over look, however the law may be made to com promise with the guilty parties who have its execution in charge. The JvpGE presents three hands which are conspicuous for dirt. They are three of kind, and it would be difficult to say which o' the three is least objectionable.
