To THe HONORABLE THE Common CouNcuL: GxyTLEMey—I bave received from your honorable boty the accompanying resolution, directing the Croton Ajue- duct Board to advertise for proposals for tho paving of Wall street. between Broad and Nassau stroet, with “Lyon’s patent pavement, maio by bis patent stone split- ter and driller,” which J reepectfally return, with my ob- Jections to the same. It seems, from the realing of the reeolution in ques. tion, that the parties msking application to Iny the ax0ve named pavement claim a patent therefor. Such belog the case, there cannot, under an advertisement tor a con tact be such competition for bids as the charter and or- dinanses of the city contemplate It wouid, therefore, be unnecessary to go through with this formality, and might, if such ehould be done, only resalt in the Corporation having to pay more for the work than if an agreement could be made for the same directly with the patentee. There are, however, other obj which [ deem it my duty to state. Tae Corporation have experimented a namber of years in regard to pavements. Different plans of Isying and various kinds of pavement have been recom- mended and ordered to be laid for the purpose of ascer- tatping that which would be the best adapted for ths ne. chy, and for this purpose large sums have been expended. From these exporiments tho public mind seems to have settled on the Bal pive. ment as being, under all circumstances, as well with refe- Tence to its cost as ha great adap‘ability for travel and cleanliness, to be the suited for the pavement of our 1 accordingly, ip a resent communication to your he body, recommended the paving of all the streets of the city south of Chambers atreet with such pavement.

That part of street—passes along the centre of the Eleventh avenue; and at the time of the construction of the road this avenue was not opened, but the company purchased from the owners of the adjoining lots the lands occupied ‘by their rails, and filled up and graded the avonue ab own expense, Besides, the construction of the road from Chambers street to the point indicated In your roeolution, required a Jorge expenditure on the part of the Hudson Kiver Road, ana the areoiute contro! of the eame without interference or use by avy other company, is imperatively necessary for them, #0 as ly to regulate and control the ran ning of their cars the city to the interior.
