’ Sook 10 ‘MME STATE ‘CAPITAL BOSS TWEED'S NEW JOB A Most Magnificent Proposition for a Ring Monopoly of the City Funds, The New City Tax Levy to be Directly Andited by the Boss Himself. The Most Unblushing “Nigger” of All in the Fence. A Proposed Monopoly of City Transit. THE RIGHTS OF MINORS. ALBANY, Jan. 17, 1871. | THE TAX The dill to change the mode of making up the | New York tax Jevy, full @ptails of which I gave you | in a letter two weeks ago, was introduced in the Senate to-day by Mr. Tweed. It nas been consider- ably modified in many particnlars since it was first drawn up. Its principal feature is that it desig- mates the Mayor, Comptroller, the President of the Department of Public Works and the President oi the Park Department a Board of Appraisement, The amounts to be raised by taxes im 1871 and 1872 must not, according to the bill, exceed two per cent upon the valuation of estate, real and personal, which has already been fixed forthe ensuing year. The Board, however, to make valid their apportionment of the sums which they may deem suficient for each depart- ment of the city and county governments, must have the “concurring votes of the majority of the members” of each board. Each is authorized to transfer whatever amounts may be in excess of its own wants to other boards. Probably the most important section of the bill is that which declares that no one de- partment can lawfully meur any expense over and above its fixed appropriation, and that no bills 80 incurred will be recognized by the city or county governments, and that all uctions in which the Mayor, Aldermen and Commonalty are plaintiffs or deiendants shall have a preference on the calendar, and “may be moved out of their order on the calendar.” This latter feature will be of incal- culable benefit to the city as well as to parties who have claims against it. A great deal of unnecessary expense and trouble are occ: pee | stand in this parucul: on mportant ac- interest, being buried a Mon. eéaiendars beneath a heap of small cases from One year’s end to the other. The following 1s the bill in full:— Skcrion 1 declares that the amount to be raised Dy taxes upon the estates, real and personal, sub- a to taxation in the city and county of New York In the years 1871 and 1872 shall not exceed in the aggregate in each «f said years a sum equal to two r centupon the valuation of such estates now ed for the year 1871 by the Commissioners of Taxes and Assignments, SEC. 2 provides that from the sum so raised shall be paid ull the expenses of the city and county governments for all their departments and pur- poses for each of said years, and also the interest on the city and county debts,’ the principal of such debts failing due, and the proportion of State tax Payable by sald city and county in each of Said years respectively, and no liabilities shall be in- curred for any purpose in either of said years, which shall, with the State tax for such years and the prin- cipal and interest of the city and county debts pay- able in such years, make the aggregate of the ex- penses of the city and county governments together, for each of said years, amount to more than ten per ent upon the valuation aforesaid. Sec. 3. Declares that within twenty days after the ist of June, 1872, the following persons—viz., the Mayor, Comptroller, Commissioner of Public Works and the President of Parks—shall meet as a board of appraisement, and, after setting apart so much of said sum as may be necessary for the payment of the interest on the bonds and ‘stocks of said city and county which shall become due and payabie from taxation 1n 1872, mite ope of the ‘through the legislative Gecewats Exve Yhrough he will be able, like the man whom to his head through without a hair, Tt relates to the better Ly minors, Tt must yet be ‘fresh in the recollection of a great crang peteans what 9 sarciio bone ao) Wan ae @ few years lew apout sudd ‘appearance of several children who had been com- mitted to the watchful care of straightlaced con- fraternit who make ita pious point issue to the world at large eo for hard cash to help them to get along in the croo! ways they generally manage to go, OABH OR NO CASH. A clergyman who does not ke of Sabine prin- ciples very ireely took hold of the question ares, I believe. He shook the di 80 badly that ir piety delicately reared on silk cushions and thadod profane daylght by damask curtains purchased with charitable subscriptions for the and needy rolled its ¢@ in fholy horror and cried out so piteously that people who have an idea that broadolotn and white neckties do net always indicate a soul without stain got inquisitive and wanted to know what was the matter, Well, when white neckties rule the roast, of course profane people generally nave to take a back seat, but somebody who must have dyed his tue black’ for the oceasion got the better of tre usual ran of things in the end, and boges piety, that leoked ont for the needy ones for its own luxurious comfort, was taken by the throat and choked into giving a few squeaks of what some uncivilized people call truth, They do sa) wu Mike Norton joined bands with the aforesais man to make the SQUEAKS LOUD AND SHRILL, but further the deponent saith not. Atany rate, the Dilil reier to ts the semmum bonum of the whole rum- pus, A Governor saw tit once to set his face against it, but the measure has been so fenced about this time with strong arguments in its favor that it is certain of success, and as certain to lay hypocritical ple in the dust, its cmef feature is that it regards, wonderful to relate, every father and mother as the lawful parents of their own children | ‘This beimg a broad principle, it has outshoots ac- cordingly, one of which is, that when the philan- thropic folks of a certain ik get hold of a culid, and they cannot send it “out West” to a “comfortable home” without recording its real name on thetr books, its age and its parents’ condition and religion. The latter point, religion, is one of the hard shells in the measure which legislation has heretofore mashed to atoms; bul the bill explicitly declares that if the pave thropists presume on their own responsibility to make a child they seize upon disregard the religious faith it may have been brought up to believe in by its parents they must take 7 A FREE RIDE TO SING SING and spend a few years in that delightful (resort for the conversion of their own miserable souls. In fact, the bill slaps forced conversions and religious kidnapping sharply In the face and bids the f ouls of bigotry to shrink into their dens abasned, It con- siders that if a child 1s to be taken care of by the philanthropists of any class at an age when it ought to know, if it does net, the difference between Jo! the Baptist, who was, and John the Methodist, who Was uever heard tell of, it cannot be forced to be- Neve that A BIBLE WITHOUT A CROSS on itis better than one with across, or the other thing. “Pon me sowl, Mrs. Mulligan, I had a phoine bhoy onct be the name of Patsey Ratferty, but ne Was sint Wist by the clargy, and whin I heard of ‘im nixt, be chanst it was, hees name waas Ezekial Jones, and that same Ezekial was a haithen, God have mercy on hees sowl.” This was the coumplamt of a poor woman, one whose child the philantropists took care of and hid away for years under an assumed name. The bill pulls the prop from wnhder an outrage which gave use to many complaints like it. True philantliropy will have no cause to weep if the bill becomes a law. TOLLING THE KNELL OF TOLLS, Jimmy Irving is again after people who persist in making money out.of other people who take it into 1ueir heads, once in a walle, to enjoy a carriage ride ~evar-the toil roacc mm the counties of Kings and Queens, Be sented a bill to-day which, if carried through, wii abolish all tolls ime these counties and give everybody who can afford to drive ata good gait behind either a fast or slow nag as good a right of Way as railroad cars. ‘‘Dy’e see,” said Jimmy, in explanation of his bill, “what that will dot Why, Af you want to take yourself riding to Flushing and have your own horses, even, it’ll cost you seventy- eight cents, not including drinks, mind you. Yet you, can take the cars and go it for forty-eight cen! “How about the penny bridge?’ asked a New York member, who loves to go Ww every funeral "he can get invited to. “What apout 1tr?” “Them fellers charged me twenty-four cents for & crowd Oi us and our Myers anct, and because we didn’t hev but TWENTY-THREE CENTS IN CHANGE, they broke me a twenty dollar bill ior the extra cent, 80 they did.’? “Lev’s see,” sald Jummy, scratching his head to Fe Ee reflecting mved, “that bridge is in King’s 3 ¥ - “Blamed if | know.” “Well, we’llseach It in.commiltee, anyhow." It will thus be seen that toll, whether maae for funeral Knell or not, will ve looked after if somebody don’t look after the committee.

The.memher for Sligo, not .to be outdone by his confrére, then, when he got the chance, rose ip his seat and handed to the Clerk a bill to make gas companies ‘act en the square,’’ whether they are of the Masonic order or not. Beiore the Clerk bad ume to read its full ttle, Denny again rose, and for payment of s0 much of the principal of said bonds and stocks as aa become due and payanle from taxation within sald year, shall apportion the remainder thereof ameng and set apart to the various departments and purposes of the city and county government by the concarring votes of the majoricy of the members of said board, and said board shail have the power to limit and transfer ap- Ppropriatiens which are find to bein excess of the amount required or deemed to be necessary to such other purpose as they shall fina te require the same SEc. 4 declares that no bonds or stucks of the city and county, except those authorized to be issued by direction of the commissioners of the sinking fund and revenue bonds issued in anticipation of the taxes of the current year, shall be issued except by the concurrence and authority of a ma- jority of the persons the third section of this act, and unless public notice has been given in five datly newspapers of New York of the time and place when the said per- sons mentioned will meet to consider the propriety of issuing the amount and kind of bonds and stocks; and unless a notice of the special purpose of the bonds and stocks to be issued has been first adver- used after such concurrence for ten days Sec. 5 declares that no Mability shall be in- curred by any department of the city or officers of the county exceeding in amount the appropriation made for such purpose, nor shall the city or county be held liable for any indebtedness so incurred, No judgment against tne city or county shall pe uid unless an appropriation has been made for_the same, ana no judgment shall be entered up hereafter against the city or county, ex- cept upon a verdict of a iy and all actions or pro- ceedings in which the Mayor, Aldermen and Commonalty of New York are pees or defend. ant shall bave a preference aid may be moved out of their order on the calendar. The act to take eflect immediately, mentioned in A AUGE MONOPOLY. By some means or other not yet made known a bill was handed to the “Boss’’ to-day for him to get threugh the Legislature if he could, but which even he will not dare, it 1s thought, to shoulder. At least, he says he willthink over it before he does. To give you an idea of what it might be I need only way that as drawn up it leaves a blank space on the first page for the insertion of the names of the future corporators, ‘The “Boss” before going up to the Capitol this morn- ing showed it to Genet and Bradjey, and tney both shrugged their shoulders over it, and then candidly declared that they wouldn’t like to have anything to do with it, which would go to show that, after all, there are still left in the Legislature a few men who know THE VALUE OF PUBLIC OPINION. The bill wh the unnamed corporators the right to run on their own hook cheap transit vehicles in the streets, to have a line of boats of their own, wharves at which to land them, rights of way in all sorts of places and rights to do a great many other things too nume- rous to mention. In fact, the bill would give the corporators or company @ monopoly of all the streets to drive their vehicles throtgh ana the power to buy up every kind of passenger Vehicle they took a notion , provided they could buy out the owners. Of course, If they saw fit to purchase @ stage line and run it on a five cent fare principle the thing would, indeed, be gratifying to many peopie who now grumble over the ten cert arrangement; but then they might, by little and little, get contro! of every means of city travel, aud then the screw conid pe put down in true earnest. I do not say the uni ma corporators would do so; but we all know that very strange things happen nowadays, A NEW CAPITOL. 4 Mr. Lord introduced” a bill to-day for the building of a new Capitel in New York city, and then trans- ferring the capital of the State to the metropolis, The provisions of the bul are so ridiculous thatthe Monroe Lord alone knows what kind or a huge joke tbe drawer up of the measnre wanted to perpetrate at the expense of his fellow members, Rome of the New Yorkers got sold about the thing, but will be careful not to talk too much on the subject when it comes out of the committee's hands, if it ever does. ‘There is @ bill now under consideration by one of the committees of the Senate which is destined to create considerabie of a sur in certain very philaataro- pic associations in New York which pretend to nave for their only aim the welfare, here and hereafter, ol agreat many youngsters who are foolish enough to be born in poverty, or who, after crawling from babyhood through the slums of the worst puriieus of The metropolis \o mischievous boyhood, become and, clearing bis wroat for pee ies upon the merite of the measure in lus us style of high- flown eloquence. Even the five young ladies in the galleries who sat in the first seats, the “observed of all observers,” and who had not, Pbreped heagd what the bill was about, could have sworn that it Was all about ‘gas’? while Denny was era 2 Now the bill may and may not be a geod one. Jf it was nol made as a certain gas bill was made laat year to Kill it, it 5 Gogood to wome peopl and bri ‘0 may do. som le ring the com, les to taeir senses with @ sharp turn. Those who advocate it solely on its merits claim that it will .be a blessing to New York city; but somehow or other legislative blessings for New York city are, as a general thing, such “blesaings in digguise’ that nobody can see them who is not behind the sceneg, and it might happen, by the merest chance, you knew, that this bill may turn out to be ope of them. It has been the habit of the companies, it is said, to cut off gas from houses wnese ‘vious occupants” went their unknowB ways \without settling up their bul, and that this fact has incensed, with- out incense, even the Sixth ward. For instance, Mr. Comldust lives in style in a brown stone house fora longtime. One fine day he resolves te move, forgetting purposely that he owes say lifty dollars oi .@ gas bull. Mr. Acorn moves in in his place, but can’t get any gas. Why? Becauge the gas companies ,have cut off the supp! y to the house. Why 60, againi Because they wan him to pay that fifty dollar debt of Mr. Coal- dust’s. Now, the bill takes les With Mr. Acorn and compeis the companies \to give him gas, no matter What the “previous occa'panv’’ has dene to “RILE THEIR SPIE‘ITS.’" So farso good. It then fixes ihe price of gas at $2 50 per 1,000 feet, when the qua nifty used exceeds 1,000,000 feet; but it doesn’t say wnat price shall be charged if it falls short of 1,000,060, “a fact which the companies will be cheittable enough to take profitable advantage of and no mistake. Another feature of it 1s that 1t compel thejcompanies to pay depositors interest at the riste of seven per cent on their deposits, ents to, be made once every three months. The bill wasireferred to the Committee on Affairs of Cities, who ‘will, doubtless, patiently await until the companies do. the right ‘thing to make ali hands good humoredl.

The ferryboats Delaware and Payonta, ranning from the foot of Chambers street, collided on Monday, damaging the former to such an extent as to necessitate her lying up for repairs. A petition isin circulation in Hudson county for a new ferry line to run between Jersey City and Fourteenth street, New York, Itisanid that New York capitalists are willing to furnish the entire sum needed. O B Bishop's shipyard, Greenpoint, is the scene of con- siderable activity. There are now building a steamboat, the frame of which is already set, and two fishing smacks, of about 50 feet in length, beside which extensive alterations are being made totwoyachts. + The largest clearance of cotton that has ever been known from New Orleans was made last week, the amount being, in the aggrogate, 22,74 bales, principally for Liverpool and other European porte, During Monday and up to noon yesterday there were 78 foreign entrances at this port, embracing vessels of every class and size. The intelhgence that the Thoroughfare (the railway ferry steamer) “is expected to be able to commence ner trips acroas the Bay of San Francisco by the time the next steamer arrives from China,” {s fraught with much interest and opens up improved shipping facilities that almost make us stop with wonder at the rate we are whirling along in this age. The news aboye tells that with the running of this ves- sel “cargoes can be reshipped at the rate of from 1,000 to 1,500 tons per day, and the freight time from Japan to Chi- cago will be reduced to 84 or 36 days, to New York to 37 or 40 days, and to England to 50 days." We hold our breath at the announcement and think of the time when our re- nowned clipper ships made the voyage from the far-off East in four months, and then in three months, and then still quicker, deeming it a great achievement. Then came other changes, and the Pacific Raflway sent the goods of China 4nd Japan to London in much less time than it took the fastest clippers in making the voyage to New York. That was sufficirnt to excite great surprise, but the Intest phase is more wonderful sill, and, while we think of the progress made in the few years back, ask, “What next?” So many Nova Scotia vessels are now engaged In the com- merce of the United States, and from this port in particular, the following, appertaining to the shipping of that province, will be of special interest. It is an abstract trom the Yat- mouth Herald of the Ist inst, referring to the registered shtp- ping of that port at the beginning of the year:~ Two steam- ers, measuring 682 tons each ; 94 ships, ranging from 626 to 1465 tons and aggregating 89,379 tons; 88 barks, from 250 to 828 tons, and measuring 48,816 tons; 81 brigs, of 5882 tons; 107 schooners, of 5119 tons—total, 262 vessels, measuring 90,668 tons. During the year just closed 14 vessels, measure ing 2505 tons, were lost; 9 vessel, of 2052 tons, were sold, and one of 710 tons was condemned. Increase of tonnage during the year as compared with the preceding twelve month, 8521 tons. There are now on the stocks or con+ tracted for 24 vessels, from 150 to 1200 tons, and measuring, in the aggregate, 17,400 tons. The recent improvement in freighta in the United States has given great impetus to ship- building in Nova Scotia, and lively times are anticipated there during the present year among shipwrights, Marine Disasters.
