AirvUoli aw iKiamjaillbinl I JL DRA ATIO AND' BUSIOAli of Inventow for whioh taa new atttefprUn liberal rfM The following list ft POLICE WIRES. ij5 The Wtr ig of th Polios Telegrl? urea'Cti Superintendent Plaoley Report for the Vesr, Some'Tlmol In the abstract of the police report of tho published a few days ago In the Eaoe, tbo tele graph bureau, one of tho most important branobaa oi deDartment. vu nvprlnnVorl. The rirmit (a 1 bureau ombrocea Superintendent Flanloy, Operators McKolway, Qoau, Williams, CoraoU and Koenauand Linemen M.nee and McOonnelL Not only does Flanloy and his offlolal assoolatas receive, and transmit massages, but also a full record of the arrests mad awry precinct ia caroiuny complied iromaay; to Tbo offlca la not cloaod lor a single ralnulo' during the year, and without a gmootb worklrig of tha telegraph machinory thore would bo an Immediate to tha good pollco work. Af at present managod i no branch of the department which morlta unqualified commendation.

IN HIS LATE 'BESOM Flanley gava tho followto details Inasmuch as tho business od thls oBlce requires being open during the whole twoDty fonr hour vry day in the year, I bave arranged tbs tours of duty ot the operators so tbattboy alternate to night and weekly, tw0 operators bolbg roquirod on duty daring the aw lrom a A. to and to immediately meet any troublo liable to occur to tbe outsida lines. I require one or the linemen to bo on duty day aud nl ht. My rosidanca ts tn dlreot eopimunloatlon with this office ao tbat any aAiarrangsr ont of the llaia instruments during tba night tima am immediately notified of. During tbe or.scnt year a large portion or our oola lines having bean impaired from long earvios, I bay obtaluod permission from tolegrapb companies having; tho right of way through our city to placa our wires their notes.

Tho changes so made bars uot only given UB'boltor facilities of doing business, bat have also greatly reduced tbs axpsases of this bureau of tba, aepartmont. as it has obviated mo necessity oi rebuilding our worn out lines. EECOMMENDATI0N8. That tolephonlc connection be mado with the District Attorney's office and all police courts. A great saving time could thus be secured, a.

members of the department required at court oould be notified whan wanted, as well as complainants or witnesses; atprcn cut tbey frequeutly tako prisoners to court to find on their arrival there that tha oourt Is adjourned or tho Justices are abient, etc. Tbat connection bo made betweon all forrloa and tha Central ofllea by telephone, ob officers stationed there could call for the ambulance, sond out alarms of fire, and wo should be enabled to promptly notify them to be on the lookout for thieves leaving the city with proceeds of robberies when we have beeu apprized of auolx things ocourrlnfr In tha outlying preclnots. And In tbo event of the establishment of a rivor pollco, they could bo used to transmit orders, and placa us In a positiou to bo iu almost constant oommunioattou with tht rlvor patrol. I would also reeommand that TELEPHONIC STATIONS be established on certalu posts in preclnota wharafald posts covor a large extont of territory and ara remotely located from tho atatton house. In order that patroli toon could, If necessary, uaa the telophoues to summon, assistance or report fires and other occurencas raqulr fng prompt action, which, at present, necessitates tha loavluR of such posts uncovered for long Intervals whllo he goes personally to his station on business uf this kind, It could bo arranged so that offiora and pa trolmon when on patrol duty could call up their reapae tivo stations at any time ond receive instructions or make reports.

Tho locatlona for eueh stations to tw selected by tho Commissioner ot Pollco. TBE PEKSE of connecting tho various courts and ferries with thla office would be For construction of lino, about $73v; leose or telephones and transmitters, about $320. Tha exponso of maintaining tbeso oonnsotions, after tba first year, would be, for rent of telephone and trans nutters, about $320 per annum. I would respectfully state that my annual report tnA ing with tha year 1881, will show AN IgOBEASE 07 BUSINESS over that of any previous year. In tbat report I will oadeavor to, so far as possible, elasally the message.

Bent and received during the year. Tho total number of tho.e mossagos will oxceed 108,000. During tho present year I have placed telephone In several of the station houses which I have used In conjunction with our dial Instruments. Tba resulta attained from theso additional connections aro highly satiafaotory, particularly ao In the receiving of elaotion returns ou the night of Novombor 8, a. wa were rrniuh tha nrm of onr'cltv with tboreturng ao promptly that.they publisbod tho result of the elOr Hon In advance of any city in tho State.

Does tke Elevated Railroad Srstem UXoct the Gone? sior or the Brooklyn Ewlo: Wl 1 mi 1 P.yi'f8 speaic of rapid transit it seems h('r systems exist but the two Lro'okti OlS.

light, ohstruoting tne street and tnlunna i nnni mill hv nrnnratlon whini, property, amo'numeitof inJustlceVod the murderous surf ace road ot AtlaX avenue which Mike Flnnegan calling bis gi "hSui signs over wooden steps informing tho publlo thai thu a "rapia irauait aianou. But there are othor means of affording rapid tranBl elsewhere employed to tbe satisfaction of all. I refer tho underground road, so ia London, and what may bo called the "'cross block" roads' in London and Philadelphia. Both are unobjectionable to moat people, ana a comuinauou mo mu uum JUBt suit tho topograpny OS rooaijr. j.uv uuuw ground neods no doseription.

The "cross blook" has lonn boon in uso In London. I rode on ono In 1856 from East India docks to Fenchurch elroet, if iTomem ar right. It ran ovor houses, between uousos, mrougn hmiRAn and atroftta on arches, but never going along a stroet. A more recont ono, that from Charing Cross to London Bridge, I rodo on in 1865. It is built the same prlnolpie, supported on substantial ma Bonry and provided with a gravel road thus avoiding noise.

Were it not for tbe chimneys of houses you would tulnK you wero on a sun boo roau. This system, I think, is still bettor adapted tothe regular square blocks of American cities than to the Irregular stroets of London. In Brooklyn, for in etance, aftor tunnelling undor the high ground near the river, instead of defacing Myrtlo or Fulton avonue with homely hardware, would It not be better lo build the road in the middle of the blook next to either sldo the avenues, simply spanning too oross streets 1 This would supply rapid transit. Evory ono will admit that a railroad forty feet from one's rear windows Is les. objoctionoblo than one wlj.htu aim's length of tha front.

Then there would bo ercuuo for building stations ou the strcots, liko those on the Socond avenue road between Division and Third streets. Thoro would 110 obstruction of thoroughfares; no obscuring of lieht: do dronplDff of aBhes. crease, bolts, on pass ers by; no miles ot empty cars standing over tbe street, etc. Thoro is, however, a great objection, 1 admit. 11 is that the companies would havo to pay for tho right of wav.

This is precisely what I had in mind when 1 said that such roads would bo unobjectionable to most peo ple. It Is much cheaper to stoal watch tuan to ouy one; much cheaper as railroad mon kuow to Bteal a highway or a street man to pay lor private proporty. In the counties of Now York aud' Rings some of tbeso men bave bad their choice, and we all know wbft It has been. Lot thom now be oompelled to pay for the watoh or da without It, and you will see that they will pay here as they have done elsewhere. The waterod oapltal of the Now York "LV roads would have beeu twice more than onough to build an honest road, and a permanent one, while it la neither the one nor the other.

A Taxpaveh. Has Property on Stxtb Avenue, New Torb, Increnacd lu Value To the Editor of tht Brooklyn Eagle If the benefits derived from tho elevated roads In New York outweigh tbo damage they came, it does not follow that It would bs bo In Brooklyn, Tho cases ara wholly dissimilar. One of the counsel for the roads hero, tn his argument before tho Mayor, la reported as saying tbat the value of property on tha Sixth and Third avenues ia New York, had advancod nine millions by rapid transit. If this is true it is only a part of the wholo truth and ia misleading, and if so intended is oreditable to the astuteness and professional shrewdnosB of the ablo counsel iu behalf of hie clients. What are tho facts We Ond that at the genesis of the elevated roads in Now York, the stagnation or business and depression of prices owing to the monoy panio wero BncU that the vacant Btoree, even ou Broadway, could be counted by tbo hundred.

Yi'o bad reached bottom prices for everything. Since thot gloomy timo tho marvelous volume oi prosperous uuBiness tnat uas followed tho bard timeB, ha. carried up valuos generally, norhans. to tbo othor extreme. Tbo proportion of this" advance in values fairly applicable to tbo property oa tbe Third and tjiitti avouuoa is immensely in uxoob.

of this estimated ulue millions. The robots from tho truo advance of value is tho amount of dam ago to the abutting property ou those aveuuee and reduces the veal Increase In value to the nine millions, which 1b no doubt au overestimate, Again, tbo samo counsel says "The interest of tbe publlo at large should not yield to tbat of the Now, the owners and occupauts of property on Fulton street, Myrtle avenuo and other streetB, opposed to these roads running iu front of and depreciating tha value of mllea of Btores, dwellings, churches, etc, are not few In number, and to theso 1 am Bur. can be added a good, many 8 who mm lorego any prooooi, par. oonvouioaC8 or benefit ratherjhfta a80I.y to the financial ruin of 6ny citizen. To call this multitude of per sons a few is to throw into confusion all our idoas of numbers.

Ownors of property should not relax their opposition in tho vain expectation of obtaining damages, unless guaranteed by the city, as proposed by tbe E.uile. If damages could be secured, thoy would necessarily bs partial. A proximate estimate might bo msde of a store in ulton street for inBtanoe, of the immediato depreciation of value by the erection of tbe road In its front but (hat danisge vyotild not compare ia matfni tjja with that of tbe falling off of trada and annual profits year after year Indefinitely. Ari3 finally, the scheme of running a highway through Brooklyn to Coney Island for the benefit of Nesr York, fairly interpreted, Is a plan to Injure tha fair name of our olty, to crush its retail trade, and to mako jubilant the proporty owners and the store keepers on Broadway, In New York. It ought to be resented as treating Brooklyn contemptuously, in fact, aa thn more scullery of tbe great metropolis.

We aro having quits too much of this. Tho measure finds favor with a junta of atook speculatora in collusion with bribed ofUolals. It is dishonest, scandalous and corrupt to tha core. Clean Hamds. WIIO SnAliL BE 8 PERIMTE DBST OF SIMOOM I To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle Brooklyn, as a leading city, has fostered and matured a system of freo schools fully cqna! to any othor.

Tho instructors employed in our great system of schools are, in many inatanooa, eminent iu their oalllng, aud tho election of any one of I hem to the super lntenuonoy would insure a proper administration of tbo offoirB and responsibilities of that moat important office. From so extond.d an educational field It would be to Bend to one smaller and mora limited for a superintendent. Iu St. Louis, Chicago, Buffalo, Washington, Baltimore and Now York City the chief auporlntendent and his assistanta are selected from among principals of schools who havo beeu tried and not found wanting aa progressive educators. To prouioto tho welfare or ilia soboolB, the most eligible of the available candldatea should for the highest offi.o in the department of instruction, without regard to pollticul or religious afllltationfl.

If one of the highest purposes of true education ia to unite and qualify the peoplo for usefulness to each other, it is certainly an humanitarian Interest no faction should dominate or oontrol. Among representative, who have lvou oharacter to the cducatloi i.h.1 "J9SJ fe29 to5u nu6 the elate, bv and constituents, as candidates for the supeilntenneucy, is mat oi uaivin I'attorson, one of the foremost principals of Brooklyn. Ha was formorly profossor of mathematics lu the Buffalo Normal School. About nlno years ago ho came to Brooklyn and waa ejected principal of School No. 13.

Under bis oliargo this school Eas proSpered (jnd IJ.B0W ono of tbe largest la the olty. Mr. Patterson wasior several years principal qf tbo evening high school. In the positions be has hold he has tghown great executive ability, practical knowledge and organizing power. Ho is aninparativdy a young man and conceded to be possessed of rare abilities aud attainments.

James Crtilkabani, principal of Public School No. 12, Is well knowo, not only in this city but throughout the Stote, in connection with the founding and development of our great State and municipal school interests. Connectod with the Stato Department of Kdncatlon at Albany for somo years, though uot a politician, bo draftod laws now on the Btatute books, which in the interest of sohools and instructors have proved to bo wlssly framed. The school blanks iiBed In the Now York City and Brooklyn schools were devised by blm. Soma of the State papers proparod by Mr.

Crulksbonk, and issued from tbe Department ot Education havo been liberally quoted in other States as.an authority in connection with school legislation, Tbe enrollment of nearly 800 students tn tho Evening Central High School, tblspait month, speaks well for Mr. Cruikshank'e management Large experience and natural and well trained abilities of a high order are In bis caae fully Bxempllfled. Mr Leonard Dunkley, who Is also named as a man In every way wall fitted to grace the ofllce of city superintendent ot sohools, Is tbs popular and officiant principal of Public Sobool No. 16. The reputation of this sobool ia woll known.

It is quoted trom one and or tho country to tho other as a modol school, not only in appointments but In Intelligent methods of Instruction, syBtematio organization, and tbo tnoronghess of tha work. For twenty Jour years Mr. Dunkley Uaa been recognized as one of the leading educators of Brooklyn. Mr. Jacobson, principal or Publlo School No.

15, is a gentleman of rare scholarship, broad oulture and great earnestness. No. 16, under Tils management, is a model institution of learning. These, with a dozen more of tbe prinoipala of Brooklyn who might be named, ara praotical, thorough oducators. mon of exeoutlva ability and enthusiasm in their profession, who comprehend tbo defeoto in our school system, and who would work persistently and Intelligently to ralso tbe scboole to tha highest standard of excellence, and make them tha pride of our olty and tbe models of tba oouutry.

P. COLONEL MC LEER, OSTHASTBR. I'd the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle Mr. John A. Nichols, who is himself au officeholder, Is reported in yonr columns of Wednesday ovening as saying.

In regard to tbo reappointment of Colonel McLeor tbat "So would not deny that ho was opposed to his rstentton in office, hla oppoeltion being based on purely political grounds," This, bear In mind, ia tho utterance of a Republican olUoi.l who has token up hi. auoae in nrouaiyu iuuk muuu mo umu when Colonel MoLeer, when only a boy, wont forth twenty years ago to battle for his country'a life. Tha time will coma when Mr. Niohols will wlBh that ha oould get awny from tho memory of this utterance. TblB spirit of party factionalism was pretty soveroly rebuked in tho eleotlon of Mr.

Seth Low, as Mayor. If Colonel McLoer wero a Democrat, with blB war record and his empty coat sleeve, he would dcBerve retoDtiou at the bonds of President Arthur, and I believe bo would get it, too. Lot Colonet lcLoor return to Brooklyn, aud let all politicians wboArs oppo.ed to him, for tuo roason givon by Mr. Niohols, start at onco. for Washington, lay siege to tho President, and "joy wl 1 conaeBoeuu to gracions.y porioriu t' will bo sent baok by tbo PreBidout with Colonel Mc Leor's commission In their keoning for aofe dellvcr auca.

The opera season in Brooklyn has, so far, boon entirely successful, and ha. given the utmost nleaaure to thousands of our most cultivated citizens. It is, therefore, with a feeling of keen regrot that they will learn that, with the performance or "Los Hugue nots," Meyerbaar'a masterpiece, on Thursday evening, tho sea.on of opera for 1881 will end. A sooonu aoasou will probably bogiu in Maroh, but, for many weeks to come, Brooklyn must be content to do without its fa vorite entertainment. Colonel Mapleson and tho local manager, Mr.

To those whose good fortune it was to lis ten to tbo second concert of the riiilharmouio Socloty at the Academy last evening and thoy wero many, the house being crowded a moat delightful aud, In every way, thoroughly onjoyable performance was vouchsafed. The programme has so recently been considered in detail in this column that othor than a reforonce to lta beauties is uncallod for at this writing. No more complete and pleasurablo porformance of the "Ilhenieb Symphony" of Schumann, the first number of the selection, could be asked, marked ai It waa by all tha grace aud finish which is characteristic of the Inenmnarable orchestra of the Tho from Gluck's "Alceste," In which Signor Oalassl, MIsssb Schell and Winant and the Philharmonic cho.

ms took part, introduced tho latter most happily to a concert audience for tbe first time this Reason. Its performance showed marked Improvement over the rehearsal of tbe prevloui aftornoon, precision of attack having given place to the aomewhat nervous hesitancy of tho forinor occasion, and the niolo volcoi having been roiulorced In number, the parts were tnoro evenly balanced. Both In this number and the intensely trying festival music of the "(juoen of Sheba" selection, which concluded the ooncert, the chorus commended Itself to critical appreciation. Signor Ga iassl's noble voice was heard to excellent ad vantage in the aria, Die Frist latj um, from Wagner's Flying Dutchman," which he delivered with a vigor and spirit which awakened the utmost enthusiasm. The gem of the concert, however, after the delioious string Quartet of Beethoven, to which we have before alluded, and which was delightfully played by the oroheitra, was tho "Btatrlce and Benedick" duo of Berlioz, tflven by Ml.s Bcholl and Miss Win.nt.wlth a giaoe of expression and delicacy of nbraslnit.

ha "thee and thou" Btyle of Bpeech of our ancestors required, as our "you" style doos to day, that the nominative should govern the verb.

Pity the man who, with wife and fnnil and Are.

ho uuablo procure either, enmmouiiig up tho little apark of courage remaining (aud it requires courage), pulling thin collar his threadbare ooat up round his taco, fearing to be seen by any who once knew blm. Willi a "Wife, darling, bear up uutil I return," leaving poor dwelling in search of aid for his loved eaaks the neighborhood of the brown stone homoB the wealthy, church going, inorol lecture attending members of the community, whoro surely charity must dwell. After many attompts to bring himself to ring, and with a gulp to keop down his quick beating, but Btill proud heart, he timidly approaches the door and low and bashful tones, and with averted face 1m nloies tho help ho BO much needB. If his fortune has him to tho homo of one of those who belong to the "eoctoty or one who has been infiuoncod by their peculiar notion, of charity, ho will hoar "My good man, yon ebould not soek assistance, you. should work, rather than bog I would put in coal, split wood, do auvthlnc there should bo no paupers iu thla eonntry It must bo your own fault you aro so nuieb reduced.

"Well, If what you say Ib true it i a sad case I sympathize with you really the ways of Providence are mys terious," "your who very iu nut i vmi hilt ulio needs food more wilt euuu uu, than medicine of course, a. usual.

Can ho havo any feelings of love to bis fellow man, who, knowing his dire distress and having tnomeani nw i fT aert a rocord of his past life, or oertifloate of charao.

ter? No. The want was immodiata aud so was the assistance glvou. Lot these managers try and put Ibemaelvos in the poor man'B place. It them suppose (but bow o.n i they) having fallen Into poverty, with loving and suffering wlfo aud children dying before their oyes, no friends to help: no human aid or kindly voice to oheer, forsaken and alone. How would they fool if, having subduod the heart to bog, thoy would bo referred to a publlo eharlty.

Do not refuse tbe cry of the sufferer nor put him off till a more convenient season. Holp tho man (and with a kind word, too,) when be hungers, that he can turn to God and thank Him, and feol that even he, poor as ho is, is not forgotten by the all seeing ono. Better be deceived many tlmon than that one deserving one flhould suffer. Remember that those to wnonimucn, is glvon much will bo required.
