PROPOSED SALE OF REAL EsTATE.-The
committee of the city government on the sale of
unproductive real estate held meeting last
evening at the Aldermen's room. The chair
man of the committee, Alderman Haseltine
laid before the committee u carefully drawn
map of the Poor Farm, st. John street and
other places in the vicinity, which was pre-
pared in the Civil Engineers Office. This map
shows considerable quantity of unproductive
real estate belonging to the city, and the COM
mittee are of the opinion that they can furnish
good house lots to parties who want to build
as cheaply as they can be procured in
Deering To do this it is proposed to run
new street from Portland street through the
city farm parallel with st. John street. The
lots on the last named street have been in good
demand of late years and the proposed street is
equally attractive. The land through which
this street would pass is now of very little use
to the city. and if it can be sold to persons who
will turn it into good taxable property the in
vestment cannot fail to be profitable one for
the city. This proposed reduction of the city
farm will not ipjure it for the purpose for
which it is used. The Aims House will still be
surrounded by large tract of land for tillage,
while the the hay lot in another direction is
undisturbed. The project seems to be wise
one and the city council will No doubt endorse
the committees report on the subject when it
