A large gathering of the New Hampshire
democracy was held at Concord, Monday
night, to consult upon measures affecting the
well being of the party.
The President expresses himself reluctant
to veto a finance bill, after repeatedly urging
upon Congress the necessity for some action
on the question. He thinks, however, that
the country never will be prosperous until
the currency is placed upon a specie basin.
In the Senate, Wednesday, the territorial
bill was read and discussed briefly, but the

The City kepOrts.-An inquiry.

Mr.. EDITOR: 1t is now a month or more
since the reports Of the several departments
of the city government for 1874 were made
and ordered printed 'for the use of the city
council and for general distribution" l I'M
derstand they have not yet been placed in the
hands of any printer, and that the prospect of
their being issued at any early day is not
good. New, if it is of any use at all to print
these reports-so that the citizens may know
the actual condition of things and what their
servants have done-let us have them sea-
sonably. 1t is simply absurd to wait three,
four, five, six or seven weeks before the priv
ilege of examining these important documents,
is accorded MS. 1t has been suggested that
the report of the Auditor is not yet completed
and that the hardness of this officer delays
the publishing of all the reports. If this is
true, then why may not the Auditors report
be issued separately, in the form of last
years almanac, and allow the several DEPART
ment reports-those Of schools, highways, the
poor etc, to be printed and distributed to our
citizens near the beginning Of the municipal
year:
But why this delay in the auditors re-
port? The city ordinance concerning that
officer says it shall be his duty "to examine
and audit the accounts of the several depart
ments of the city government and report the
same to the city council prior to the third
Monday of March annually" am told that
a brief, unimportant report was made this
year on or before the date prescribed, and that
more time" was asked by the accomplished
and efficient Auditor, and that it was granted.
But how much ''more tune" pray, are We
to be obliged to wait before we can get some
OF the reports for the last municipal year?
