Mr. W. E, Hale has rented the store, 40x150, Nos. "9 and 81 State street. for $6,000. It was unrent- able last year. As indicating the tendency of rents in the ry quarter may be cived tho case of the McKay Building, which stands on tho northeast corner of Wabush avenue and Ran- dolph street.” Early in December last it was leased by W.'T.

Commissioner Waller has bought HALF A MILLION BRICK for the new City-Hall._ T. & J.D. Tilley, Thomas Moulding, and Lil & Morrison are to furnish 10,000 each, the former at $8.50 per 1,000, and the latter two at $7.50 per 1,000; and Hoyt & Alsip ure to supply 200,000 at $8.50 per 1,00._‘The con- tractor hus contracted for the remainder of the brick he will nced at $6 per 1,000, to be delivered when the new brick comes into market, and he promises to finish his contract by the middle of October, which will.be ahead of time. Mayor Harrison is opposed to the extension of the Washington-street boulevard THROUGH UNION PABK, which can be properly used only as a park, and would be made dangerous for children and oth- £ frequenters if fast driving were enco: in it, a : 3ACKSON-STREET BOULEVARD. ‘The residents of this street intend ‘turning. it over to the West Park Bonrd, nominally as a boulevard to Douglass Park. Ordinances have ‘Deen passed and assessments made for paving it between Canal and Rockwell street; aiso for Cullfornia avenue, between Madison and Twelfth streets. Anordinance is to be introduced to gravel the two blocks between Rockwell street and California avenue. ‘The public will then have a straight drive from the head of Michi- gun-avenue boulevard (which starts at Jack~ son street) three ‘and three-fourths miles to California avenue, thence’ south, passing the Fair Grounds, to Dourtas Park; or, north to the Washington boulevard; .or, west to Central Park and the race-course. A graceful curve will be given it at Horne avenue by condemning the Yacunt lot on the southwest corner. ‘When under the control of the Park Board, heavy teuming and the moving of houses upon it (for any distance) will be prevented. A large number of elegant residences will be erected pon the street the coming scason. BOULEVARDS. owners of three miles of frontage on first street have protested to the South Park Board against granting permission to the Chicago & Western Indiana Railroad to cross on Fifty-first street to Western avenue, crossing the end of the park in eodoing. The name of South Grove parkway has been changed to Drexel boulevard. The West Chicago Park Com- missioners having received a petition, with sig- matures representing 13,000 rcet of frontage, 2,000 feet more than were needed, in favor of the West Washington-strect boulevard, have ap- proved and concurred in it, - At the last mecting of the South Park Board & motion that the plans for * NEW WATER-WORKS to be built by the Park be adopted was voted down, and a commitiee was appointed to ascer- tain the terms on which Hyde Park will supply the South Park with water. THE LAKE VIEW ‘Trustees have refused the spplication of the North Chicago City Railway Company to be al- lowed to put in a sewer from their proposed new barn on Clark, near Diversy street, to con- nect with the Walsb street sewer, owing to the strong objection raised to such drainage bei emptied in the lake. In Lake View, the B of stees of the German Catholic Orphan Asylum have decided to erect A NEW ASYLUM da place of the one burnt last fall. at a cost of $25,000, on the site of the old building on the north line of the town, and the congregation of St. Henry's Church, adjoining, have decided on beautifying and Improving, the cemetery adjoin- ing the church, and, also, the erection of a new residence for the priest south of the church, on the Bridge road. PUBLIC SURVEYS. iy In 1485 the first act was “passed directing a survey of the public lands, fixing the price at $1 per acre, and providing the mode and form of ] conveyance, and providing also for bestowing bounties upon the officers and soldiers of the United States. : In 1796 (May 18) an act was passed providini for the appointment of a Surveyor-General, ant his employment of a sufliclent number 0} deputies, who should survey and mark the un- ascertained outline of the lands lying northwest of the River Ohio and above the’ mouth of the River Kentucky, and divide the same in the manner pointed out in the act. The system adopted at the start was the RECTANGULAR SYSTEM, and provided for dividing all the lands by north- and-south lines, run accordingto the true merid- jan. and by others crossing them at right angles so as to form townships six miles square. ‘April $5, 1612, an act of Congress was, passed establishing in the Department of the Treasury an office to be denominated the General Land- Office, the chief officer of which was to be cated the Commissioner of the General Land-Oftice. The first Government surveying was done in the State of Ohio in 1796, The seven ranges as they were called, being the first seven tiers of townships, west of the Ohio, were first surveyed. ‘These townships on these ranges commence re- epectively with number one on the ‘iver and number north. The present mode of reckoning TOWNSHIPS AND RANGES re: was not adopted untila later period. This survey ras made under Albert Gallatin, at that time Seerctary of the Treasury, and the work executed under the immediate supervision of Rufus Putnam, the first Surveyor-General. The public lands of the United States are primarily surveyed {nto uniform rectangular tracts six miles square, called townships, founded by lines conforming to the cardinal points, and contain- ing nearly as may be 23,040 acres. The town- ships are subdivided into thirty-six tracts, are one mile square, called sections (640 acres), which are numbered from one to thirty-six, beginning at the northeast corner of the town- Pein T gumbering west with. tho north tler of sections, thence ‘east with the second tier, west with the third tier. and $0 on to the thirty-sixth section in the southeast angle of the township. SECTIONS ARE. DIVISIBLE j into four equal parts of 160 acres each, called quarter-sections, ben each quarter-section into two half-quarter-sections of cighty ucres, or four quarter-quarters, containing forty acres each. These arc called * lezal subdivisions.’ Prior to the survey of all townships, a north- and-south line is established, called principal meridian, and an east-and-west line styleda base-line. Any number or series of townships ina tier north and south are denominated a range. ‘The ranges are designated by numbers east or west, ns the case may be, from the gov- erning meridian. The townships in each range are aisonumbered north or south from estab- lished base-lines. Correction-lincs, or standard parallels, are scen every five townships or thirty miles north and south of the base-lines, an¢ their object is to keep the townships, etc., square, because the meridians keep converging as they approach the poles, and would, if continued far ‘enough, meet, and the townships would not be are. rere are now inthis country, according to Hawes, SIX PRINCIPAL MERIDIANS, which govern tho surveys west of Ohio, besides several independent ones hereafter mentioned. ‘The first runs north from the mouth of the GreatMiama, between the States of Ohioand In- diana, to the South boundary of Michigan. ‘The second runs north from the raouth of the Little Blue through the centre of the State of Indiana to ite northern boundary. The third runs from the mouth of the Ohio River through the centre of the State of Illinois to its northern boundary. ‘The fourth runs north from the Illinois River, through the western part of Hlinois and the centre of Wisconsin, to Lake Superior. The fifthruns north from the coniluence of the Arkansas and Mississippi Rivers, through the eastern portions of Arkansas, Missouri. and Yows, and governs the surveys in Minnesota lying west of the Mississippi! and Dakota lying east o ‘The sixth commences on the Arkansas River in the State of Kansas and runs north through the eastern part of Kansas and Nebraska, ter- minating on the Missouri River. In addition to these six principal meridians a number of independent meridians have been established: “In New Mexico the surveys are reckoned from the independent meridian of New Mexico. In Utah from the “Salt Lake meridian.” In Oregon and Washington Territories from the Willamette meridian. In California there are three independent meridians, called the “Humboldt,” “Bt. Diablo,” and “St. Bernardino” meridians, etal The surveys in Nevada are numbered from Mt. Diablo meridian in California. There had been established up to 1870, asshown by the report of the Commissioner of the Land- Oltice, twenty principal bases and twenty-three principal meridians. THE LATEST ESTABLISHED Puinel al base and meridian lines are, we be- jeve, in Montana. which regulate the surveys in that Territory. The Surveyor-General reports eed “on the summit of a limestone hill about feet high and about twelve miles southwest of the junction of the three forks of the Missouri River.” ‘The method of perpetuating corners of town- “ships, sections, and quarter-sections, and the meandering of streams, etc.,. will be explained atanother time. 2 PAY AS YOU GO FOR MUNICIPALITIES. ‘When the Constitution of this State wns formed it was deemed necessary, in order to prevent municipalities from recklesly incurring debts and then raising the valuation of the property in order to provide taxes sufficient to meet the interest and pay the principal, to de- clare: J. That no county, city, township, school district, or other municipal corporation, shall be allowed to become indebted in any man- ner or for any purpose to an amount, including existing indebtedness, in the aggregate EXCEEDING FIVE PER CENT onthe value of the taxable property therein. Such valuation to be ascertained by the last as- sessment for State and county taxes previous to the incurring of such indebtedness. In addition to these restrictions, it was further provided that “any county, city, School district, or other municipal corporation incurring any indebtedness as aforesaid, shall before or at the time of doing'so provide for the collection of a direct annual tax suflicient to pay the interest on such debt as it falls due, and also topay and discharge the principal thereof within twenty years from the time of contructing the same.” ‘This system of administration in the affairs of municipalities is, as our Supreme Court has de- clared, “the pay-as-you-go system,” and the only correct theory to be adopted both for INDIVIDUALS AND MUNICIPALITIES. In a case which came before the Supreme Court a short timo since the Court used this languages “It is much easier to make public improvements on credit than with ready money; to throw the expense of them upon others, who are to come after. than to pxy far them at the time. The credit system tempts to the making of lavisn and unnecessary expenditures. The contrary one leads to the making of such only as are needful and judicious, and tends to insure economy in the making of them. Instances are not wanting in the experience of the State where municipalities have gone on making improve- ments under A VICIOUS CREDIT SYSTEM, causing depreciation of their credit and thelr evidences of indebtedness to be hawked about at large discounts, whereby they were compelicd to pay greatly enhanced prices for whatever they yt done, resulting in the accumulation of bur- eas of debt weighing them down in bank- ruptey.” « Ly Sec. 919, Art. VIL, of the General Incor- porution law of cities, it is provided that “no contract shall be herenfter made by the City Council or Board of Trustees or any committee or member thereof, and no expense shall be in- curred by any of the officers or departments of the corporation, whether the object of the cx- enditure shall have been ordered by the City nincil or Board of Trustees or not, unless an appropriation shall have been previously made concerning such expense, except as herein oth- erwise expressly provided.” The Crimina] Code of this State (sce Sec.- 208) provides that every person holding any public office Qvhether State, county,.or municipal, trust, or employment, who shail be guilty of diverting any public money from the use or purpose for which it was appropriated, or who shall be guilty of contracting directly or indirectly for the ex- pentiture of a greater sum or amount of money than may have been at the time of making the contract Sppeepe ated, or set apart by Jaw or authorized by law to be contracted for or ex- pended upon the subject-matter of the contrict, shall be fined a sum not exceeding $10,000, and nay be removed from office.” e These provisions of the Constitution and of the statutes are all based upon the prudent maxim NO DEDTS SHOULD BE INCURRED nor contracts made without providing the means topay them. We are upon the eveof great prosperity, but the city authorities should go slow, and not run -recklesly into debt, but pay as they go. Give the eee time to breathe and recuperate. The ea lic debt of the city should be reduced, and when any liability is in- curred provision should be promptly made to meet it, in accordance with the Constitution and jaws of the State. Proper regard shouid be had to taxation, for every increase of taxes falls upon real estate. It would be wellfor the Al- dermen of the city to read over a chapter of the Constitution of this State every time before zo- ing to a mect of the City Council. In the revision of the lnws and ordinances now sup- posed tobe going on. under the supervision of the ration, the Constitutiqn of this State ought to be placed on the opening page. THE HARDOR OF CHICAGO. To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune. CxrcaGo, Feb. 21.—If the proposition was made to the City Council, to establish a boulevard or a half-dozen of them side by side in the city the subject would receive the greatest attention, pat nen it comes to cur have facilities every- eems struck with paralysis. We think that Ald. Ballard's proposition to open up to public use the outer harbor. as far south as Monroe street is one of great merit, and should be caretully considered by every man who has the future interests of Chicago at heart, e that there was a beginning made in ts io ae ‘and we wonder. that the Board of ‘rade and Chamber of Commerce do not take zome action in regard to it. Is there any public spirit left in them, anyhow? The objections ‘hich bave been made to the feasibility of.using the outer harbor are unsound in every particu- Jar. The Illinois Central Railroad’ has no right whatever to control the outer harbor by reason of their right of way into the city, which is a Snere casement’ at best, and if that harbor is never to be used, then it is an ina-' position upon the’ United States Gov. Tnment. to ask them to expend another dollar upon it. The people of the City of Chicago seem to have got parks and boulc- yards upon the brain, and seem to think thatthe use of the Lake Park for busc-ball grounds or a Joafing place is of more importance to the city than the accommodation of the entire commerco of the lakes. The riparian right to all of the land along the Lake-Front Park belongs to the the City of Chicago, and an outer har- bor should be opened there at, once. What use is the Lake Park north of Dfonroe street to any one at present? It is true that the Epace occupied by the Exposition Building re- dounds to our benefit,—but how is it wit the bnse-ball grounds and the rest of the space ad- joining it? What intelligence and foresight characterizes the great commercial metropolis of tho Northwest? What attention do we pay to the demands of commerce? What right have we toask of the General Gevernment to con- tinue the work on our barbor if it is never to be used? We can expend $12,000,000 upon parks and boulevards. and ruin thousands of Our people in. so doing, but we cannot lift a ‘inger or spend a dollar to furnish fucilities for 4 commerce which throws into insignificance half the nations of the globe. x. SOUTH-PARK TAXES. To the Edttor of The Chicago Tribune. Crrcaao, Feb. 21.—You spoke last week of the uproar that was kept up over which paid the most park -taxes,—Chicago, Hyde Park, or Lake. ‘The uproar is created De certain candidates for Park Commissioner. Vhile Chicago is paying more taxes now owing to its greater amount of assessable property, it has never paid its fair proportion for the park. The first assessment Taade upon Hyde Park was $1,800.00; Lake, $7,000: and South Chicago about $500, and ever since that time the Property-obrn rs in tho Town of Hyde Park and Lake have paid just exactly as much in proportion on the value of the property as the property-owners in the Town of South Chicago, the rate per cent being the same. There never was such injustice done 23 there was in the levy of the special assessment by the South Park. Commissioners on the property in Hyde Park. For in- stance, take . property at equal distance from the parks in South Chicago and Hyde Lark. We ean give instances where property in South Chicago worth $75,000 was assessed $4.73 per year, and where acre property*in Hyde Park, perfectly unavailable for any purpose, and not worth one-quarter of the South Town ‘property, was assessed from $30 to $200 per year. This inequality pervades the entjre assessment. In fact, that assessment w: he most gigantic d, and,yet there is 2 cer- tain candidate going around tho town, making Qn uproar, and gett inserted in apy paper that he can get access to the statement that Chicago now pays the greatest amount of the park tnxes, and, therefore, ought to have all of the Park Commissioners. B. SOUTH PARK WATER-WORKS. ‘To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune. Cricaco; Feb. 21.—The taxpayers and thoso interested in the completion of the parks are still wondering what the South Park Commis- sioners meant when they resolved to Pe, all further improvements on the parks, and, within twenty days thereafter commenced the agita- tion of the question of erecting independent water-works, to cost from $100,000 to $200,000. ‘Mr. Price seems to be the leader in this move- ment. and is making the most strenuous efforts tocarry this thing through. The water-muins of the Village of Hyde Park now cross the park grounds, and they can supply all the water that the ‘park will require for years to come at a cost not execeding $3,000 or $4,000 ayear. The public are interested in the early completion of the parks and boulevards, and we think that before any water-works aro erected all of tho boulevards and streets connecting with them and leading to the parks over which the Park Board have jurisdiction shouldbe completed so that people can get at em. The Price family ‘seem to be getting very numerous in park matters, and are: drawing more moncy to-day from the Park funds than any other houschola. Commissioner Price is now getting $3,000a year for auditing bills while his two sons are making them. During all this entire winter, while all the teams—which should have been employed in drawing crushed stone and material for the drives—were thrown out of employment, the salaries of the Price family never ceased. ‘The Commercial Bulletin says there is a BOOM COMING IN BOSTON realestate. The fact that property in the Back Bay District of Boston has been sold recently at rices two or three times as high as could have en obtained for it a year ago, might not of it- self be taken as acriterion of the improved yulue of real estate in general. Commonwealth avenue ‘isa thoroughfaro sui generis.. But cn- couraging transactions in real estate have been by no means confined to its favored borders. ‘The holder of 2 couple of acres of unimproved marsh land near the new park was last week offered 50 centsa foot for it, although he had within twelve months or so expressed a willing- ness to sellfor30cents per foot, and had been unable to finda purchaser. But a still better “straw ” has oceurred on Summer street, where abusiness edifice that had been offered at pri- vate sale at $40,000 for over a year, brought So1,- 0530 at auction, The sale had been extensively advertised and was very well attended, and the bidding very spirited; and the price received was $2,050 above the Assessors’ valuation of the property, although real estate in Boston was supposed to be ussessed considerably above its actual value last year. vi The San Francisco Daily Bulletin is informed that there is some outside capital secking in- vestinent in real estate in that city. The record of sales Jast month was unusually good for the season. In only three Januarys during the past decade has the nmount been larger. These ex- ceptions were 1875, 1878, and 1877, when the ex- citement in’ stocks and the liberal dividends from the California and Consolidated Virginia mines were contributing causes. Real estate is improving rapidly IN THE SOUTH. * Commission merchants in New Orleans, Mobile, Charleston, and other cities, who took lands in the interior to secure bad debts, are now dis- posing of them without uny sacrifice, and, in some cases, with quite handsome gains. They have been to the merchants a heavy burden. SATURDAY'S TRANSFERS.

The Prince of Wales is retrenching his ex- penditure, which has been cut down one-half in each of his residences. The time. however, has come when the assistance of the Prince has come necessary, not in the serious administra- tion of the Government, but in the entertain- ment of those who govern. ‘The Queen has op- this assumption forthe last three years, Dut at length consents to deposit in his hands, if not the globe and sceptre, at all eventa the visiting list and Lord Chamberlain’s book.

Cultivate self-control until it becot toyou. Self-repression isn't self-control. One time I knew one of these men who are accus- tomed to self-repression.. He was a quiet, soft- spoken man, with the most ‘ungovernable tem- er that ever tore a human passion into rags. ut he rarely showed it. .One day in the autuinn he was trying to make a jointof ‘six-inch stove- pire fit into the end of a five and one-half inch length. And during the struggle he smote. his thumb, about midway between the nail and the joint, with 2 round-backed hammer. He arose With a sad, sweet smile, Inid the hammer down softly on the carpet. changed the lengths of pipe, fitted thom and put the pipe up, and never said word. But he was pale, and there was a glow- ing light in his eyes. And the next day, about3 o'clock in the afternoon, that man walked out of town, up. the B. & M. grade, and stood in the woods, and foamed at the mouth, and howled and raved about stovepipes and people who make them until he frightened a thirty-two-ton engine off the track. Self-repression isn’t self- eontrol,my son. . BOOTS, SHOES, Xc. CHAS, E. RADDIN & 60., Commission Merchants, 68 & 70 Wabash-av.

LING VIOLEIST, His technique is sranly. boundless, and equal to any emergency. In this respect he is the peer of any living player we have heard. He sweeps criticism and every sort of objection away. A man with the temperament of an iceberg might perbaps dissect his playing, but, unless he is of that degrce of frigidity, he can remember little else but the potent spell of the fascination which this great player weaves around him; the ex- isite colors, the dazzling brilliancy, and the absolute abandon of his work.—GEo.

In accomplishing technical effects he is certainly a prodigy, and no one can form any idea of what he can do with the violin, not even if they give full sway to their imagination, un- tilthey see him, bow and violin in band. Cer- tainly, he is one of those meteors which fiash at intervals across the sky.—GEO. ARMSTRONG, Inter-Occan, Feb. 5, 1879. In the power of expressing a certain order of emotions, we do not believe he has arival, In fire, brilliancy, and daring, he reminds us of the accounts that have been written of Paganini.— Hazzanp, New York Tribune.
