THE County CANVASS COMPLETE The Board Of
County Canvsssers yesterday adjourned sine dis
having flushed the work required Of them bylaw.
This year the Boa'd has completed it's actual labor IN
six days but their stipgs were extended TO ten days
in consequence of the neglect of two Of the Al
dsrmen to attend to the footing up Of the returns
The Board is deserving of credit for the comparative
speed with which this canvass has been conducted
the usual tine berg twenty days or thcreabouss--
albeit il il undertood that for this ACTIVITY may
be ascribed to the dec'ination of Nj. Taylor, a
keeper of the City Hall, to supply the Aldermen sad
their friends with their dinner during their attendance
in the canvass It'll the 5000 or Whereabouts, said
have been run up last year in this manner BY the
Board should be lquids'ed which 1t has not been.
FOR under Mr. Flagg's administration Is u likely TO BE-
Having TO dine at their individual expense, the Alder
men have been particularly lax in their attendance
upon the Board, DslmoI 100 reapiog the benefit whsa
they have been on hand Daring the ssssoa Of
the Board there have seldom been more thsp
two or three members present with The Prs.
dent, who, having no one to Interfere, has huniAa
the canvass through TO a speedy coucIusi,n. TAs
bu,ipess Of the Board corcluded BY the adoption
Of resolution to print the official canvass in eleven Of
the principal daily papers.
1t is proper to state that the actual work done vas
performed by Richard b. Connolly, the County C'srk'
ard David A. Fowler and Theodore N. Sq1ires, biz
assistants, who present one or other througoow
the whole canvass. The "BosTd OF Caavas,erS
generally get the credit of doing the work. where's,
in reality it tie County Clerk and his deputies who
bear the great burden Of it.
The Court Of Common Pleas has been busy during
the last two months in ns'uralzipg aliens. Yesterday
fri he'd its abors in this respect for the present
season. Election draws nigh, and there is proyiGoa
which forbds naturalization within the ten days pre-
vious Since the State election 800 voters have bees
made by ibis Court who will exercise the right Of suf
rage for the first time on Dec |.

the Controller smes corruption in the getting up OF

street and Maiden Lane, from river 10 river, was
awarded to Chas. Gusdet by the Csumissioosr Of
Repair. and Supplies, about year ago. ssd confirmed
by the q mmon Council it was subsequently ss'igs-
ed to Cbas. Devlin and again TO John Fnzps'rick.
The price agreed to be paid s. 50 per square yS,
which afterw erds increased TO 81 80 by resJuoa
of the Common Council, without, however, sny reason
being assigned. The weight Of the pavement ia use
