DEATH OF AN OLD MERCHANT. I ' - ' y THE PRESIDENT'S PROCLAMATION RESTORING THE WRIT OF II A . BE AS CORPUS. Etc., Etc., Etc. New York, December 4, 1SC5. Jltssrs. Editors: Our approaching municipal elections are giving ample opportunities to our city journalists to write very interesting biogra phies. Men who have lived among us for many years, and upon whose high character there has never been the semblance of a stain, are now op posed and maligned, and attempts made to blacken their fair fame with a zeal worthy a better cause all this because they are candidates for office; and for the purpose of gaining a petty victory over a political prgunization with which the revilers are at variance. There are four candidates in the field for the important office of Mayor, who, with other nominees for municipal honors, are now passing through the fiery ordeal of editorial party vituperation. In the present canvass the anti podes have met together harmoniously. Horace Greeley and Fernakoo Wood support the "Re form," or Citizen's Association candidate, John Hecker, for Mayor; and according to H. G.'s present opinion of F. W., all the abuse formerly heaped upon the latter gentleman by Editor Greeley may be taken in a Pickwickian senses The Times is not satisfied with this nomination, and warmly espouses the cause of Marshall. O. Roberts, the nominee of the Republican party. John T. Hoffman, the present Recorder, is the Tammany Hall nominee. His : honorable career as Recorder, and his past blameless life, are of no avail ; he is now represented by the Tribune as a petty public peculator. C. Godfrey Guntiier, the present Mayor, his former supporters say, has been " weighed in the balance and found wanting." Mr. Gustuer, during his term of office, has vetoed too many bills to please the "ring." Hence the opposition to him by that illustrious body. That municipal reform is "a consummation devoutly to be wished," admits of no doubt, and every good citizen hopes it may, be accomplished. In conducting a political canvass, and advocating " reform," perhaps it would be desirable. for some of our editjors to begin "re form" at home. Slander is always dishonorable. A meeting to ratify the nomination of C. God frey Gunther for Mayor, washeld at the Cooper Institute on Saturday evening last, which was largely attended. In the course of his remarks Mr. T. A.. Tomuxson, one of the speakers, made allusion to the great Captain of the South, Gene ral Lee, which was received with hearty applause. The gifted soldier has many -warm admirers in this latitude. An extensive storage warehouse at No. 15 State street, with its contents, consisting principally of tobacco and cotton, was entirely destroyed by fire on Saturday morning. One man' was killed and several others severely hurt by the falling of the walls. The loss is ' estimated at over half a million of dollars. : Two hundred and fifty thou sand dollars worth of the merchandise destroyed belonged to the government and was not insured. Myndert Van Schaick,. an old merchant, and for several years President of the Croton Aque duct Department, died in this'city on Friday last, at the advanced age of eighty-three years. He belonged to one of the oldes,t Knickerbocker families. : ' ; The third person supposed to be concerned iu the murder of Senor Otero, in Brooklyn, was caught at Carlisle, Pcnn., oil Saturday last, by two police detectives from this' city. The trial ol the supposed murderers will - take place in the second week in January. ' The President's proclamation restoring the writ of habeas corpus in part of our country, indicates a leaning toward the fanatical policy of the radi cals, which is painful to contemplate. After all the sacrifices made, and the sufferings endured by the Southern States ; after their prompt obedience to Federal dictation in acknowledging the extinc tion of slavery, and repudiating the f rebel debt, why should their energies, their rights, their hopes, be longer held within the iron grasp of military despotism ? Has the manly and generous policy of the President towards the Southern people come, to an end ? When the government organs of public opinion declared during the con test that the only object of the war was the " res-' toration of the Union," were they in earnest? or were those declarations inadc only to deceive? Are the ample folds of the Stars and Stripes, as heretofore, to wave over a nation-of free men and brethren ? or is the Starry flag- to be the emblem of the conqueror and the oppressor ? Until the Southern States are fully , restored 4 to all the rights and privileges contemplated by a " repub lican form of government," and resume their places in the Union as equals of the other States, a loss to the industrial interests of the whole country will ensue, and increased taxation will be our lot. . . ! 1 M. .
