As the year draws TO close, we find more than
the usual activity in the legislative branch OF our
City Government Daily sessions of both Boards
are held, and business is hurried along with rail.
road speed. Fortunately for the Treasury, the
MAYORS veto stands in the way Of the spollsmen,
and we hope he will examine carefully every bill
presented to him, remembering that eats OF unex-
ampled ferocity are often hidden under very inno'
cent t.looking heaps of mesl One of the schemes
now getting ready to be carried through, is the re-
organization of the City Inspectors Department.
In 1854 the salaries paid in this branch of the Gov
ernment amounted to S20,S66. BY the new ordi-
nance they are raised 70 S60,35O, while the only
addition to the business Of tae Department is the
care of the public markets, which in 1854 cost less
than $4,000. The enormous additions were
passed quietly through the Board of Councilmen;
but the Opposition members in the Aldermen are
manfuly striving to defeat the ssndle.
Another expensive job is the proposed paving OF
the Fifth avenue, for two mles, with Belgian

about eight and half million Of dollars. Tie

It has been supposed that the Cubans had quite
made no their mind. rather to bear the ills they
have, growing out Of their colonial position than
to fly to others easy to be anticipated as the natu
raj and inevitable results Of rebellion civil war aud
a romina dependence to BE- followed By i1i.
buster conquest, or at best. by annexation to this
Union. The telegraphic reporters, however, at
New. Orleans have esssyed to disturb the peace and
quiet of that island by reporting new rebellion as
on tbe point of breaking out, and the authorities
as driven to the extremity Of begging the nterven-
ton of France-news brought, it is pretended, by
the Phadeptls, which left Havana the 25th inst.
Mr.. Douglas, who has just returned from visit
to tie ever.fathful isle, does not appear to have
been in tho eas! aware of any such movement.
Somebody else, however, was. General L. s. he
lean-sn llIus,rous and Trustworthy individual,
doubtless, though We do not remember ever to
have heard of him befrre-is cited as authority for
the alleged appeal to France for assistance; while
a Cuban gentle man just flom the island name
not given, asserts that the people and part OF the
army are ready for revolution, and are only kept
still by +, ar Of European Intervention. Moreover,
that no ingredient for a rising may be wanting, it
is further stated that "a large number of Ameri-
"can gent. men are now In CuDa 70 aid the move
ment, and that if France can only be kept from
interfering, they are quite confident of success.
The telegraph, especially from New. Orleans, trans
nits, fiom time to time, many marvellous stories,
.ome of which are ultimately little docked down
by subsequent advices. This Cuban revolution,
We suspect is one Of that .or.. In fact, We have
not the least doubtth the story was manufactured
at New. Orleans out of the whole cloth. The
steamer Isabel at Charleston, which left Havans
the same day with the Philadelphia. brings not q
lisp of this wonderful news. Instead Of reporting
a revolution on foot, tie Isabel only reports a
great quietne,s in the Havana markets. Some
bt dy has MAJ e fool of the New Orleans telegraph
reporter. This is an accident, indeed, which hap
pens very often, and for which that gentleman
seems to take his revenge by doing the best he can
to make fools Of others.
