! CRY IMPROVEMENTS AND Cry TAxEs.-Some
of our newspapers are crying out for more
Improvements, more taxes, more expenditures,
more Jobs more debt. They revel in everything
like spos and fat BY great effort and much ras-
cality, the taxes of this city, under the corrupt
system of both parties, for the last few years, have
reached three millions Of dollars per annum. One
would think that this immense sum contributed by
our property holders, tax payers and daily aborers
Qor all have ultimately to pay taxes), would be
enough to satisfy the appetite of the greedest cor
morant but it seems that it is not considered sufi
cient. The cry now is, TO add two new streets to
the west side of the city, by taking them from the
North River to double the extent of the Battery
and fill 1t up all around to build extensive slaugh-
ter houses beyond Murray Hill, or anywhere else
to fill the public walks with statues of warriors
and small politicians; to hang up portraits and
paintings by pupils of the academy, in all the pub
lie rooms about town, and in every poor house on
the island, including the Tombs and the cells of
the felons.
To accomplish this vast work will require our
taxes to be increased to five millions of dollars, or,
perhaps, six or seven, besides making vast adj
diton to the city debt. Well, we are not sure
but that it is best to 60 the whole figure at once
W euPPoit an Wosc improvements, 10 encourage
those vast expenditures, to indulge in every piece
of extravaganza, to increase the taxes-so as to
bring men to their senses by some practical phi
losophy touching their pockets. The new Corpo-
ration will soon be in power, and they will be
watched with a most vigilant eye. We do not ex-
pect great deal from them. We doubt whether
they will touch reform at all. We rather think
they will endeavor to make the last grab at the
public purse, and follow the policy of those who
run away from broken bank and ruined building
fill their pockets with all that is valuable, and
then decamp as soon as possible. With these views,
we think that the proceedings of the Common
Council, from the first of next month to the first of
January next, will present some of the most extra
ordinary pieces of robbery, depreciation, and plum
der that have been exhibited in this country since
the time of the old United States Bank down to
the recent explosion of the Canal Bank in ALBANY.
under the patronage of the expert inanciers Cros-
we'll and his associates the old leaders of the de-
mocratic party. The wings are in power in the
Corporation. 1t is the last chance, under the old
system that they will have, and they ought to make
good use of the little time before them. Let them
increase the taxes fill in the Battery invade the
North River, and make two streets of warehouses
and docks in that region, pave the streets, build
slaughterhouses, increase the city debt to twenty
millions, and it is certain that when they go out of
power they will do so with full pockets.
