others, upon the p1an of new search for Sir
John Franklin, which be has conceived and
is about to put into execution, with the aid of
Mr. Grinnell and Mr. Peabody, and the concur.
renee Of the Secretary Of the Navy. The ad-
dress was interesting not alone from its topic,
but from the perfect cearness and the modest
manlness with which the distinguished and
heroic speaker set forth the details of his
scheme, with the reason for preferring il to
others; and appealed for aid to render its
means of scientific exploration as complete as
possible. We trust that the Geographical So
ciety may be enabled to furnish the expedition
with whatever is necessary to its thorough out
fit in this respect. Surely there are gentle
men enough in the City who are able and Will.
ing to join in contributing the comparatively
small amount of money requisite for this pur-
pose.

ument of remarkable interest. II more than
iustifes all that we have predicted in regard
to the wasteful extravaganza Of the present
Common Council. The levy for this year was
deemed enormous and all manner OF epithets
(some of them richly deserved) were heaped
upon the Wing Council, who were charged
with robbing the Treasury and wasting the
plumber. Under the excitement against this
body, the people came TO the polls year ago
last month and elected Democratic Re-
form Common Council" The reforms
accomplished by this Board are well known
to the people; the fruit Of their work is
just ripened, and now We have it in the
form of Tax Levy for the year 1853 of
S5.171.8O2 ~! being an INCREASE over
the levy of 1852 of 1871, 23l IA This is
an increase of fifty per cent. on this years
taxes. The deficiency for this year is $742,.
156 81; in reality it is more than 100000,
but reduction of the State Mill Taxes makes
it low figure. The levy on account of City
Government or that which is within the con-
troll of the Common Council, is to be $3,479,-
93S; the estimate for this year was S2,436,65O;
increase by the present Common Council in
one year, $l,043, 288, or nearly forty per
cent. in twelve months If they increase at
these rates-and there is fair promise of
their doing 1.-THE Tax Levy for 1854 will
touch the magnificent figure of Seven Millions
of Dollars. To the people who are to pay
these enormous sums, we commend the facts
and figures.
