WASHINGTON, D. G., May 20, 1854
Much CONSERVATION prevails among mes
sengers. watchmen, laborers and other
departmental employees not under the
protection of the Civil Service law. The
demands by the place hunters are SO per-
sistent that the heads of the departments
have been forced to call upon the respec,,
employees who are not in the classified
service. The call for such list was made
last week and many of those who have in
fiuence with the administration have
temporarily abandoned the White House

THE SMITH TRACT.
The fourth of the tracts mentioned in
in the report of the Commissioners is
what is called the Smith tract. Its lines
have never been definitely stated, and in
treating of the Iquestion of prices in Sat
urday's edition of THE JERSEY CRY NEWS.
the only thing possible was to quote the
prices of property in its vicinity. 1t was
learned, by enquiry of the Commissioners
this morning, that the site embraces 116
acres of beautiful upland, bounded by
Bergen and West Side avenues and Grant
and Cedar avenues.
4 The Commissioners estimate that it can
be purchased for S243,716. At City Col
lector Loves office this morning, it was
learned that the whole tract, exclusive of
line of dwelling houses on Cedar ave-
nue., is assessed trifie under $147, ,000
The assessment probably represents sixty
six per cent. of its market value. So that
Its actual value cannot exceed $220, 600.
The cost of Improvement, according to
Engineer Brush's estimate, will be $240,-
0OO
For easy reference by those who are in
terested in the subject the figures of cost
OF land and cost of improvement and area
may be thus summarized

the estimated cost of Improvement en-
braces that only of improving the upland.
