WILLIAM ALLEN.

We clip the following from the
New York. Herald:
a Coop AvERAGE.-The agcre-
gate city debt on the LIST of Junu-
airy last was one hundred and for.
ty-two million dollars. II we add
to this the floating debt, unpaid
judgments and claims in suit it
will reach one hundred and sixty
four millions. Then a deficiency
exists in the treasury, owing to IN
collected taxes and assessments of
about twelve millions, making our
real public Indebtedness about one
hundred and seyenty-six millions.
This on the basis of a million
population is a per caTitG of one
hundred and seventy-six dollars.
The years appropriations for the
expenses of the governments mount
to nearly thirty-eight million dol
lars. This is a PEI capita of thirty
eight dollars. Our united debt aud
taxation therefore averages two
hundred and fourteen dollars for
every man, woman and child in
the city. Who says we are not a
progressive people? ~ @". "
