CORRUPT TAMMANY.
Arrest of One Thief.
New YORK, Oct. 81.

New YORK, Oct. 81.
REPORT OF CTTIRENs' COMMITTEE.
The committee of citizens ap-
pointed by the Board Of Supervi
sors, who have been engaged many
weeks in examining frauds
in the city accounts, to-day submit
ted a report as to their labors, such
as summary Of facts and figures.
This report is, first, authentic in
formation on the subject of what
has been furnished. The amount
charged as the cost ofthe new court
House still unfinished, county courts
offices, their repairs, furniture, ETC.,
is in all $13, ,416,9 1929. The whole
cost Of the completed building
could not fairly exceed 100000.
The increased sum is made up to $S,-
134, ,703.19 directly charged to the
Court House building and its furni-
ture. SS2, ,229.10 is charged to the
county offices, nearly all Of which
are in the same buildings. For re-
pairs and furniture, the following
items are included. $641, ,900.49
was paid for $17,S76.90 worth of
carpets, 1850, 1sS.01 was paid for
30S,551.50 worth of furniture,
1914, ,33o.65 was paid $73,752 worth
of plumbing, 81 ,937, ,545, "a was paid
for $70,050 worth of plastering.
The sum of $7,16S,2l2.23 was
charged for advertising, printing,
blank books and stationery, since
the 1st of January. 1866. The
whole account shows that twenty
four millions and a quarter were
paid as expenditures for what really
is worth but four millions and three
quarters, giving "a loss tothe city OF
nineteen millions and half. This
is the amount stolen and divided
among the ring thieves since Janu-
ary, 1869. This report concludes
the businesss of the Committee.
The Committee assert that within
two years and eight months, one
half of the entire revenues of the
city and county have been abstract
ed-much more than the entire city
and county tax levy. The exhibit
thus made creates sensation among
the honest taxpayers of the city.
THE ALL-ABsoRBING TOPIC.
The arrest of Tweed is talked
about all over the city. The re-
formers begin to think that the
work has been practically commenc-
ed to secure a change in the city
government,and give justice its dues
The Tweed political organizations,
which are very numerous, feel dis
appointed at to-day's action. There
is much interest awakened as facts
are developed. Further proceedings
from day to day will be exciting, es-
pecially to the politicians of all par
ties. Tweed's bail, fixed at two
millions, was promptly furnished.
His bondsmen were carefully exam
ined by the Sheriff. They are jay
Gould, President of the Erie Rail
way, who qualified for $1,00O,-
900; Benjamin Fairchild, Tam
many auctioneer, qualifying for
$500, 900; Terrence Farley and Ber
nard Kelly, Tammany politicians,
each qualifying for 100000; Hugh
S. Hastings,o of the Commercial Ad-
certiser.

STAMPS.

Stamps are avery necessary article
and seldom possessed by the printer.
We do not like to dun our patrons,
but we cannot help ourselves. We
have our obligations to meet, and
the only way for us to do so is for
every subscriber to pay his SUBJ
scription in advance. 1t is with you
but a matter of two dollars, but
these two dollars scattered all over
the country, when paid in to the
printer, is what keeps the press 60
ing and pays for the hands and ma
terial used. Few people have any
idea of the expense Of running a
newspaper, for, if they had, the two
dollars would be promptly forthcom-
ing and advertisers would be willing
to pay a reasonable price for print
er's ink.
We went to q great expense in fit
ting up our office, part of which is
yet unpaid, and we ask every sub
scriber, who has not already done
so, to pay us the two dollars and al
so assist us in securing new cash
subscribers. You can do it with
out much trouble, and you will aid
us very much. Our hands, our pa
per, and hundreds of other things
must be paid for. PrintersARnnot
afford to borrow money and trust.
We do not want to lose a single sub
scriber, and therefore respectfully
ask all to assist us by sending in
their two dollars and by getting
new subscribers.

THE ALDINE, while issued with ,all the
regularity, has none of the temporary or time
Ly interest characteristic of ordinary periodic
ais. 1t is an elegant miscellany ofpure. light,
and graceful literature, and collection of
pictures, the rarest specimens of artistic skill,
in black and white. Although each succeed
friends, the real value and beauty of THE
ALDINE will be most appreciated after it has
been bound up at the close of the year.
The labor of getting THE ALDINE ready on
the press is so great that reprintiRg is ont of
the question. With the exception of a small
number specially reserved for binding, the
addition of 1871, is already exhausted, and it is
now a scarce as well as available book.

LITERARY Department.

Where so much attention is paid to iHustra-
tion and get up of the work, too much depend
ence on dppedrdnces may very naturally be
feared. To anticipate such misgiviags, it is
necessary to state, that, the editorial manage
ment of THE ALDINE has been intrusted to
Mr.. RICHARD HENRY STODDARD, who
has received assurances of assistance from
host of the popular writers and poets of the
