REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF BUILDINGS, SASSI te spvanetaon bec aise Shoroegty, roof against the attacks of fire. A magnificent buil has been erected on the southeasterly corner of Madison avenue and Twenty-sixth street for the use of the ‘American Jockey Clab, Its dimensions are 50 feet in width, 76 fect in depth and 5 stories in height; the walls are and 16 inches in thickness, and the front is of white OF MUSIC, ‘ist day of May, 1866, the building known as th paces on the northeast corner -of Fourteenth street and Irving place, was destroyed by fire. It baving been made known. to me that the trus- ‘tees of the tended to rebuild on the old ‘mises | proceeded to hold a survey upon the walls then standing, in order that I micht determine what walls or portions of the same were in condition to be built mi of the Academy, and the con- -demned portions of the walls were taken down. In plans and specifications for portions of a new utldins were submitted to me and approved. On the day of December, when the building was nearly com- pleted, bis Honor Recorder Hackett called the attention of the Grand Jury to its insecurity; @ copy of «tence had upon the subject, together with a copy ortue report of the survey held upon the walls, was im- mediately forwarded to the Grand Jury, with an offer to render apy asgistance in my power to enable them to reach an intelligent conclusion in the matter. I received no answer as to what was done by them. I officially informed. It was reported, how pablic newspapers that an examination the building, and the roof declared faulty and insecure— in what particular wag not staed—I endeavored to ascer- tain, but have been unable to succeed. I, together with several architects of undisputed ability and repu- tation, have since made a thorough examination of the roof, and they agree with me in reporting the roof to be well constru § excitement caused having doubts throwo upon ‘the seourity of a buildiny to be used for purposes of pub- ‘ic amussment by so high a judicial officer, and the con- lemnation at random induced me *o hold a ion of in company ‘with the gentlemen associated with me in the first aur- vey.

Throughout the progress of its construction it bas been inspecied almost Aaily by an officer of this department, anid <uch improve- meats us I could suggest have been cheerfully made, and, in my opinion, the public need have no apprehen- sions of lents or danger. OLD BUILDINGS, APPLICATIONS FOR PERMITS TO ALTER AND REAM. The number of old buildings that have been altered during tho year, as will be seeu im Exhibit H, was 625, as against 551 during the year 1865. For the location and classification I refer you to Exhibit B. No building can be rai altered or built upon unp! an application has been first-made to this departinent, and the premises examined, and a permit granted allowing the owners to with the work. Ot this class of applications 623 were received and acted upon during the year, on which permits were granted in 550 cases, ax the buildings, upon examination, were found to be ina good and safe condition for the pi aiterations, and ons denied in 73 cases where tho alterations, as posed, would not be in conformity with the law.

The matter of tenement houses bas lately very prop- erly elicited much attention from the public, and severe criticiam from the press. The recent calamities by which so many lives were destroyed have awakened both to the dangers that surround the people who live in these houses, and when it is considered that nearly 600,000 human beings make their homes in them their safety should certainly excite a reasonable degree of fossnn These rs so loudly complained of and so severely condem! have not g up in our com- riod; they have existed for many years, and if the when human life ublic hotice is attracted to them only sacrificed it is not the fault of those officers whose duty it is to report on such matters, but vather from a want of sufficient authority vested in the department, Tho attention of this department sinco I Dest. to ect the ives of persons residing in them, and it will be seen Py my previous baer that I have calied the attention the jorities to the insecurity of life in these di ings. But owing to a want of appreciation of ie feat ne areal i etd ose int this kin: Property, bat hittle has been made and the methods of in cases of fire are by no means what they should be. It was got until the year 1960, that fire escapes were directed to be placed upon tenement buildii and then only upon such buildings as were to be erect after the of the act and built to contain more than eight families. In 1861 the act was amended so as to embrace all buildings which contained more than eight families, but this much odeded amendment failed the Governor.

Mopar, Jan. 21—6 P. Mf. ‘Tiris has been a duil day in Wall street, the inclemency of the weather having aggravated the prevailing indis- Position to extend operationa. On the Stock Exchange the transactions were smaller than usual, even {n periods of the greatest stagnation, and a sort of letharzy avemod to creep over business of all kinds. There was an ab- sence of pressure éither to sell or to buy, except ta a moderate extent, and hence prices fluctuatéd very slightly. ‘The gold market was very firm, and, after opening at 196%, advanced to 137. Subsequently it reacted to 1363¢ and then recovered to 136%, the closing quotation. Loans were made without interest and at 3 a 7 per cent for carrying. A telegram from Washington this afternoon announces the passage by the House of Representatives of s bill providing for the public sale of gold aftor not less than six day uotice. The bill, as reported by the Ways and Means Committee, provided, it is stated, that only four day's notice shou!d be given, the amount and time of the salen being left to the discretion of the secretary of the Treasury. It will strike any practical mind, however, that six days’ no- tice is too short, and that the time of solling and the ‘amount to be sold should be strictly defined in the act. ‘The notice should be published at least fifteen days in advance of the sale, and the amount to be sold at any ‘one time should be limited to five millions, Other- wise it is easy to see that speculators may profit by secret information, and that the public ‘will be constantly in doubt as to how much gold the ‘Treasury is going to sell and the time of its sale. The money market, too, will be liable to perturbations if the Secretary is not limited as to amount, and the mere offi- cial announcement of a sale of a large amount within six days would be sufficient to create a flurry on the Stock Exchange. The Senate should therefore amend the Dill as it stands, and pay no heed to the wishes of the Secretary of the Treasury in this important matter. Our legislators will at the same time do well to remem- ber that there is more danger in selling than in hoarding the Tressury gold, and that neither the customs nor in- ternal revenue receipts will be neorly as large in the future as they have been in the past, The present act should be so amended as to leave the sur- plus above at least a hundred millions only available for sale. Gold is the cheapest commodity at present purchasable with greenbacks in the United States, and the government will consult its interest best by holding as much of it as possible. By the text of the bill, which is as follows, it will be seen that compound interest notes are to be received, with the accrued interest added, in payment for the coin sold, an excellent provision for preventing monetary stringency arising from the sales :— Bo it enacted, That after the passage of this act, when- ever any sale shall be made of coin from the Treasury of the United States, public notice of not less than six davs shall be given by advertisement in one daily newspaper in each of the cities of Washington and New York, dcsig- nating the amount to be offered, inviting proposals for any ee thereof, naming the place and the hour up to which such sealed proposals wil! be received, the terms of payment, and when and where such proposals shall be opened.’ Such proposals shall be addressed to the Assistant at New York, and shall be opened by him in the mee of such as may choose to attend, at the time designated in the and no it considered unless ac- ; and im case of different bids at the same ‘ids shall be accepted pro rata, discount line remained inactive at 7 a 8 per cent for the best grade of commercial paper, The statement of the associated banks for the week ending on the 19th inst. shows thet they are about two millions stronger in their reserve against deposits'and circulation than they were last week, the deposits having decreased $1,317,493, white the specie has increased $751,730. ‘There is an increase in circulation to the trifling extent of $20,825, and a decrease in legal tender notes of $10,984. The loans show the most important change, ++ 26,001,316 23,650,414 ‘Thé action of Congress upon the currency question is ‘stil awaited with great interest and anxiety by the financial and commercial community, and business is mapended to a great extent in consequence, Yet the bankers and merchants of the country take no action themselves to force the subject upon the attention of Congress, and the dutlards in both houses are oblivious to the urgent necessities of the nation. The leading financial and commercial men of this city should there- fore take the initiative in the matter by calling a public meeting at the Chamber of Commerc? or elsewhere, and adopting resolutions embodying their views as to the course Congress should pursue. The necessity of stopping a farther contraction of the currency, includ- ing compound interest notes, except to a nominal amoupt per annum as they mature, should be urged, and a reduction of taxation demanded. The expression of opinion on this subject should be sufficiently decided and empbatic to indicate the sentiment of the people at large, and the dangers arising from a perseverance jn the present fiscal policy of the country should be dis- tinctly pomted out. If they neglect to do ‘this they will fail to perform a duty which they owe to themaelvea, At the early session of the publie stock board the mar- ket opened with a rather firm tone, and owing to the setclement of the difficulty between the New York Cen- tral and Hudson River railways the former advanced to 1094; and the latter to 130.
