The City Reports.
THE STREET DEPARTMENT

During the last eight months alone OF
1873 the expenses Of the Street Department
of our city government amounted to the
stately sum of S33 ,62s. SO; in the year 1874,
SCI, 42S. 10; in 1875, $4,000, in 1876.
$50 S47 (of which sum 81. 1872 was refund
ed by property-own on sewer account.
and s. 200 was debt incurred by the pre-
ceeding administration and in 1877, SILL
74S 90. This is comparison of figures every
one of our tax payers should carefully note.
Tho work of the Department embraces the
Church street Improvements, which cost
S4, 1853 30, the North Avenue improvements,
SSO5. 35-these being the principal outlays
for permanent improvements. The ma
cadamizirg of Church street has proved an
entirely successful experiment. from every
point of view, and its costly cents per
square foot-wonderfull small Of the
policy and utility of this work there is now
no question. North Avenue was graded
and grayelled from North street to Man
yell's, one thousand tons oil gravel being
used making it the best drive in town. The
roadway Is very durable, too. and will require
little or no expenditure upon 1t Tor years
to come. The minor operations oil the Depart
ment have been the improvement OF parts oil
Pearl. College and Main streets. to the ex-
tent of fifty-two tons OF gravel; the build
ING of eight street basins and the general
rare and repair of the streets.
TIRE WATER DEPARTMENT.
The total expenses of the Water Depart
ment. during the year 1877, were Ss,o1S'sl'
divided as follows: Current expenses (othee
expenses, salary. pay-roils for labor. etc.,,
s., SIG to: pumping, S5,o5O.33; construe-
ton, 81 ,2i6.92 The interest on the bonded
debt was SI4,694, and the total expense oil
maintaining the water works g., 32o's9'
Deductiug from this sum the water rate
collections (S2O, $3.50 and the value oil
difference of coal (S777), and we find de-
fciency of S2,6Oi ga smaller one than
for wears. In 1876, with expenses OF Sls,-
1913, the deficiency was S5.043; in 1875 the
expenses were SIC, 3s2 and the deficiency
sll .OsO; in 1874. expenses ST., 1850. deh-
cheney S6.O47; and in 1873 the deficiency
was S4,270.
In Main street, 500 feet OF ten-inch cast
iron pipe was laid, at an expense OF Sl,l1a.
Various improvements lat an expense oil
only $780, we're made at the pump house,
by which the pumping power of one pound
of coal was raised from 1873 to l63 gallons
The total length of main pipe IS now almost
25 miles. The quantity Of water pumped
from year to year shows some curious
variations, and, at the risk Of overburden-
ing our readers with figures, We give briei
comparative statement for the last few
wears Previous to 1871 Mr.. Linsiey $
contract was to pump 100000 gallons
day. In 1871 there were pumped 1904 97,-
400 gallons in 1872 the Superintendent

tant particulars in 1873. 65.OOO,Vo T;
