It affords your committee much pleasure
to state that theNpaper Of the Cor
poration h4k at no time during, the past
yeaI--nor indeed for sevefil years past,
been below pr: This favorable condition
Of the Treasury has enabled the committees
having charge Of the public works, to have
every thing done at the lowest cash prices.
Your committee would recommend that
the same rate Of takes be continued, a. those
levied for last year !; that i to say, one half
OF one per cent; On the assessed value Of
property, and special taxes the same as is
fixed in the several ordinances on the sub
ject now in force, with The exception Of the
taxes on Livery Stables, which we would
recommend To be fixed at $25 instead of the
present rate o. IS on each yehecle, and
with reference to the flat. boat landing,
we would offer the following ordinance,
for consideration and recommend its adep-
ton:
Be Il ordaised, @r. That from and after
the passage of this ordinance, ~ Aatboats
or other watercrafts bringing country pro-
duce, shall be allowed 10 SAY at the fat-
boat landing in the city of Baton RDuge,
four day. on the payment Of one dollar, after
which, they shall pay .gsy, ce~ts per day
while selling of the sfiginal cargo brought
BY said boat; and all boats tIading or abuy-.
ing and selling at the landing, shall, besides
the said Gfty eesss per dsy, pay the same tax
as Is paid BY stores on shore. fgiSai VI
