The City Inspector sent in report to the Com
mon Council yesterday, with regard to the street
cleaning, in which he claims to have shown BY facts
and figures the history of the embarrassments Of
this Department; the obstacles which have ope-
rated TO delay the success of its labOrs; that the
work has been done in an economical manner aod
that the streets are not only improved but that the
health of the city has been maintained and its trade
and prosperity consequently increased. Mr.. Eb'
ling, his Honor, Mayor Wood, and Mr.. William r.
REYNOLDS, who obtained permission" for the
cleaning of thirteen Wards, meet with no mercy at
Mr.. Morton's hands. We have no space for the
report 30 day.

this child, supporting it to have been real one, is
that II might be entitled to inherit.

this child supporiog it to have been real one, is,
that it might be entitled to inherit.
This is very fine shaving, to be sure; but we ap-
prehend that Mira. Cunningham cannot take any
advantage Of it. The supposittious child which she
has produced, abe has not produced in the charac-
ter of child upon whose Legitimacy the Surrogate
is called upon to pronounce. She does not produce
it merely as her child, nor merely as the child oil
herself and DR.. Burdell but she prOducesi it as the
issue Of a marriage between her and DR.. Burdel-
and as such, born of parents whose child would be
entitled to inherit; and by doing she appears to
bring herself clearly within the words Of the
statute. Whatever the Surrogate might say about
the marrisge-and the worst he could say would be
that it was not proved to his satsfactOn-it IL GER
tain that Mrs. Cunningham has, in tho very words
of the statue, "fraudulenty produced an infant,
falsely pretending it to have been born Of parents
"whOse child would be entitled to inherit, with
the intent of intercepting the inheritance from
"persOns lawfully entitled therefor" and even
though this scheme might have failed for lack OF
proof to satisfy the Courts Of an actual marriage
between her and DR.. Burdel the attempt at fraud
on her part, to the full extent described In The
statute would not be any the less complete.
