souri, Pacific railway was wrecked at 4
o'clock yesterday morning between

the city 10 some point not on

TO be practicable and is certainly captivating

the eminent sanitariau, whose professional

plan might be devised b. whlcbthe sewage
and drainage question might be solved. A
plan has BEEN submitted, but unfortunately
the means of the city are not adequate TO the
enterprise.
THE RIVER AND HARBOR IMPROVEMENTS
The general government has continued the
work Of improving the channel Of the SaYan-
nah river. The operations have extended as
Tar rs Oyster Bed Shoals, opposite Cockspuf
Island, but the work has not been completed.
Many circumstances have combined 10 felaru
the work, some OF them providential. Inc
severe storms of last summer coming upon
the dam near Fort Pulaski. then in course
OF construction and uncOmpleted did much
damage. Much OF the work already done,
ana Tor which payment had been made out OF
the appropriation made by Congress for this
harbor. was destroyed or made useless, ana
viii have to he done over again.
IL Is a matter Of regret that sufficient APP
preparations to accom- pllsh the projected
work are not made in such timely
manner as to allow the same to
DE ntinued without interruption until It's
tohipittluu. AS IL is ana mas Detn ever elhCC
II was begun the work has been so
0esultory that very much OF what is accom-
pished at one season is lost before IL can be
resumed again. Thus the eventual cost must
pc very largely increased or the work abau-
doned in an unfinished condition.
This manner OF working is certainly
poor economy. TO say the least OF II. II the
appropriations were sufficient and timely he
result would be much more satisfactory.
Nevertheless, what has been done has doubt
less been of great service, and has gone far in
producing the effects originally planned.
Gen. Gilmore has kindly furnished me with
summary of the work done since June 20,
1854, which append hereto for information.
CONCLUSION.
The year has passed without any striking
incident In the city affairs a far reasonable
conservatism in all affairs has prevailed
Providence has been kind TO us; the health of
the ciIy has been remarkably good; the popu-
letion and the wealth have increased in a
large degree; all business has been compare
lively good; and, If people who accumulate
wealth here, would take pains to invest It
where it properly belongs, Savannah would
soon be city Of great proportions and Of i'm
mense Importance. Respectfully submitted.

ltwill be observed that SiO5,e62 80 of the
taxes Of 1854 were collected during the pres
ent year, and it may be asked, why these
taxes were not collected in 1882 The eXpla-
nation is that taxes on property. although as
sessed for the year, are by the ordinances
made payable quarterly with 10 days grace.
The last quarter OF the year does not become
pay able until 10 days after JAN after the close
Of the fiscal year. This accounts in a large
