that tax, amounting to about ten million dol
lars for the County of New-YOrk. only the
sum of one million and a half has yet been
paid though the whole amount was due four
months ago. Another feature OF this DIS
graceful twenty-seven million dollars tax
levy is that only six and half millions are
provided to pay interest on the debt whlle
the sum required is about nine millions. In
making this criticism we do not overlook the
existence of tho Sinking Fund for the
payment of Interest on the City Debt.
Controller Green, in his letter to the
Mayor of June q, most certainly includes the
income of that fund (from water rents, &c.)
in the three millions which he deducts from
the estimates for the miscellaneous revenues
of the city. The law which authorizes the
building of new City Prison expressly re-
duires that one-fifth the estimated cost be
included in this years tax levy. This pro-
vision is very coOly disrcgarded by the Board
of .Apportionment
We are happy to recognize great improve
ment in the administration of the City Gov
eminent, but we cannot disguise our opinion
that the financial policy of the last five years.
if much longer persisted in, will end In the
total destruction of the credit of the City and
County.
