This increase In the estimated amount 10 be raised
in 1852 over the tax levy of 1851 is accounted for IN
the rapid growth of the City, which proporionately
increases the public expenditures ofthe City Govern
ment, and by the large additional amount required
to be raised by the Act of the Legislature passed at
It's last annual Session for Common Schools These
estimates are based upon the information received
from the Heads Of the several Departments. II has
been found necessary since the LIST OF May 1851, to
make additional appropriations for various accounts,
to the amount of $l62975, which have been paid
from the amount raised by tax and yet the def
cheney carried into the tax levy Of 1852, amounts to
Sl25,000.
