Aggregate debt

We were satisfied, from the care taken to
keep the truth from the public, that the City
Debt had largely increased, but were certainly
not prepared for such stunning blow. Con-
troller Haws, at the close of 1863, handed over
to his successor Matthew Il. Brennan, an ag-
gregate debt of ,724. This included
nearly all the extra loans in consequence of
the War. That debt has been raised under
Messrs. Brennan and Connolly TO the figure
above given-over s76,OOOOOO, an increase of
sS3, ,423,775 "a in less than seven years; or, to
be precise, six years, nine months, and five
days. This is an increase Of debt mot
counting street assessments and other heavy
burdens) of Thirteen thousand Fire Hundred
and Ihiriy-seren dollars and Thirty-seren cents
per day for the entire period of Tammany
administration of the city's finances The
aggregate debt is $s2 per head for the entire
population, and $535 for each voter lust
registered. The rate Of tax this year is sos
per head for the entire population of the city !;
the public debt is rising at the rate
of 1854 an hour. Ii it any wonder
that the Controller has stopped giving the
public annual reportsf Yet these plunderers
make the welkin ring with dehunciatiOns Of
the Federal Administration for heavy taxation
| and o1travagance. The city is rapidly increas.
New-York tribune., 1870-11-07

Republicans of old WEsTCHEsTER you
never had farer opportunity to carry your
County than now! The people have been
plundered by the Boulevard Ring till they are
sick and sore beyond endurance. They know
that the men who have skinned themsalive are
bawling for Hoffman & Co., and they do MT
want any more of that crowd. Hence they
gave One Thousand Majority for the Republi-
can Assemblymen last year, and elected two
of them, though one was counted ont. Now,
you can elect all three if you WILL j. HILTON
SCRIBNER in the lower district has sure
thing if you all come out, there being two
Democrats in the field, each claiming to be
regular, and neither disposed to give way. 1t
will be your own fault if Mr.. Scribner is
beaten. In the middle district, Howard C..
Cady was elected last year, but counted out;
JOHN j. HILL can be elected now
and the present Board of Supervisors will re-
turn him if he has most votes. In the upper
district JAMES w. Hustled will of course be
reelected by an overwhelming majority. Your
County Ticket Is popular, and has a good
chance of success, especially your wide-awake
candidate for Sheriff, WALTER II. HAIGHT
We entreat you to complete arrangements this
day for bringing every Republican voter to
the polls, and for pledging every one not to
come to the City tomorrow until he shall have
voted. Make everything sure to-day,

The tanner ballet troupe has not been as
evenly successful as it was natural to anticipate
it would be, on account of the illness of Madame
Lanner herself. That lady had been working
extremely hard, experimenting rehearsals, and
taking laborious share in everything in which
her own reputation and ambition were concerned,
and broke down under the trials of a new
climate. Her illness has lasted but day or so
but it materially interfered with the pecuniary
interests of the management. Mr.. Gaylers play
of Fritz, written to order, like machine poetry,
attracts pretty good houses at Wallacks.
