The CITY FiNANcEs.-The condition Of the
finances of the city, is source of great ankle
iy. A few weeks ago the accounts were thor
oughly examined at the instance of Mr.. Hayes,
when report was made showing the amount Of
Indebtedness, the amount of expenditures, &c.
Every one appeared TO be fully satisfied that
there hac been 10 misapplicati0n of funds, and
that the accounts were correct in every particll-
lar and we supposed that there was no occasion
for further inquiry in regard to the matter Such
however, seems TO have not been the fact, as at
the meeting of Council on Thursday evening
aiesolution offered by Mr.. Adams was adopted,
instructing the Finance Committee TO employ
an expert in accounts and bookkeeping to exam
ine all the treasury books and other papers from
January !, 1850 to December 81, 1873, period
offourteen years, and that he shall ascertain the
amount Of the indebtedness of the city ON
bonds, bills payable, open accounts or other
wise, the amount due on them respectively,
when created, when and 10 whom payable; shall
also ascertain the aggregate amount of each
series Of bonds, with the date OF issue; shall al
70 ascertain ehe amount due the city upon bond,
note, due-hill open account or otherwise, with
se4o hAihc hhu VI Gdlh dtulOI, anu iOl
what purpose the debt was created and whether
there has, al any time within the dates herein
named, been any informally whateverlln the
accounts of the city-whether funds have at
any time been drawn from the City Treasury
for other than city pulposes-and 10 all other
things in this connection which may be requir-
ed by said Finance committee or either member
thereof, and to close all accounts open on the
Treasurer's books by striking a balance; open
new accounts, when found necessary, and com
mence the next year with such hooks and &C.
counts as will show at glance the exact state
Of our financial affairs; and that lie shall make
up 0 correct balance sheet with the close OF the
year 1873, in detail, aud present the same to
the Financial Committee on or before the lst
day Of February, 1874
This Is certainly very praisworthy examine
ton, and the thousand dollars that it will cost
may prove very profitable investment. A
committee however consisting of Messrs. Adams,
Mclean, Pickles, Febiger, Hayes ard McIntire,
might have done the work equally satisfactory
without cost, as the practice OF economy is GER
tainly necessary, unless the accounts are actu-
ally In confusion, and the auditors have failed
In the discharge Of their duties. The men-
bers Of the Council should understand the ne
cessity for every movement prior 10 engaging in
II, and to this end there should always he . full
consultation and understanding with their col
leagues,

CONTRIBUTIONS TO A ScALP.-A young lady
who had her scalp torn off by an accident in
New Haven recently Is reported to be doing
finely The Journal and Courier says. 1.-THE
| physicians have found thirteen persons willing
TO part with small piece of their cuticle, and
the medical gentlemen have placed the con-
tributions on the head of the patient with
| gratifying result. As one after another volun-
ieers to let the doctor clip off piece of skin,
| the number of those willing to do likewise in
creases and it looks as ifthe girl would have q
scalp and head of hair again. The youn-
| ger physician attending first set the !audahle
example,"
The ladies Of st. Peters Church of New
Castle have purchased beautiful hunting cas- e
gold watch which they propose disposing of by
chance, at so cents each, hoping by this means
| to do what they eau towards raising funds suf-
| fcent to finish the new church. The object is
| a laudable one, and the chances for the watch
should be disposed Of soon.

The Home Sewing Machine.

We do not know in the whole history Of
science, any Of its branches that have made
more progress than that Of the sewing ma
chine. 1t has brought happiness into every
household wherever it has been introduced /;
and we are sure none has been more condu-
Give to this end than the famous HOME SEWING
MACHINE. Being one of the latest-if not
the latest -patented, it combines all the new
est and most useful improvements of the age
To those who desire to procure cheap, light
running, lock stitch machine, we would ad-
wise them to call At johnson, Clark 4 Co. s,
l57 State street, where they can be accommo-
dated upon any terms they want. The great
difficulty with many persons, and the chief
reason tChy they do not have one is, that they
cannot make the whole payment at one time
This obstacle johnson, Clark & Co. have re-
moved, as they sell their machines on MONTH
LY PAYMENTS, and 20 low that it places it
within the power Of the poorest to purchase
one. Go see them, and bay your own ma
chine instead of renting one.

THE TRADEs.-The various organizations
OF the city are keeping up their status The
membership of several Of them hare increased
during the summer months This is especi-
ally true Of the Stone Cutters, BricKlayers
and Tailors The demand for Bricklayers is
somewhat on the increase, ami advertise
ments are appearing in the daily newspapers,
which would indicate the scarcity Of men in
the city, but this IS not the case. Many Of
those who advertise for hands will not pay
the wages, and as meu can get better wages
ON country Jobs, they prefer them to city
work, while board is high and wages low.
The demand for Stone Cutters continues, but,
like the Bricklayers, the bosses are acting
cautiously. thinking that by holding out in
ducements they viii cause another migration
Of laborers to Chicago, which would enable
them to keep down the price Of labor The
Tailors are putting their house in order for
the Fall trade, aud mean to be ready for any
emergency that may arise The Carpenters,
except the Germans and Scandinavians. have
lost all life and energy, and there is little
hope Of their restoration. The Painters
have struck their colors. The Ship Carpen-
tiers and Caulkers have taken trip in the
Graphic Balloon they were engaged to caulk
the rent, and have not been heard from since.
The Machinists and Blacksmiths Union is
under the wing OF the Trades Assembly. and
as that body has not met for several months
there is no authority to speak for them. The
Moulders' Union is in splendid condition, and
its members mean to keep it so. The Brass
Finishers and Moulders is a sturdy little
band, all grit TO the back bone no white
feathers among them they are enjoying
brisk season, and entertain no fears Of
wolf this fall. What became Of the Gas
men among them!
The X. O. 5. c. are on the move. The de-
hnquent members, taking furtive glance at
the financial crisis, and the probable losses in
the Boot and Shoe trade, begin to fear they
will be called upon to make up the difference
III the counting room few cents less on the
pair would help the balance sheets. Look
out, boys, there are breakers ahead you
have more mercy to expect from your organI-
zation than the bosses The Printers had
very fine meeting on Wednesday night most
OF the boys were at their post, and a good
feeling prevailed. There are not many
" Banners ahoat just now The Coopers
give good reports of themselves. They have
good many slaves to whoop in at present.
They seem perfectly satisfied with their COP
dition at present.
