MESSAGE FROM HIS HONOR THE MAYOR. The following message was receiving from his

Honor the Mayor: MAYOR'S OFFICE, }

New York, October 6, 1873. j To the Honorable the Common Council:

GENTLEMEN—The Evangelical Alliance, com-posed of delegates from various Christian bodies throughout the world, is now holding a con-ference in this city.

The assembly includes gentlemen from Can-ada, Europe, and other foreign countries, who occupy positions of honor and responsibility, and are eminent at home and abroad for learning, piety and active benevolence.

Among the subjects in which they will natur-ally feel a deep interest, and which will occupy their attention, is our method of dealing with the large class of the unfortunate and the crimi-nal among us, and as many of these gentlemen visit our city for the first, and perhaps for the last time, it seems proper that tne people of this city, through their representatives, should extend to them an invitation to visit our justly celebrated public institutes, and acquaint themselves as far as possible with their practical operations. As many of these delegates come from national-ities in which a large proportion of our own citi-zens were reared, it is much to be desired that they should not return to their firesides with any existing prejudices against our form of govern-ment, but with pleasant memories and increased respect and esteem for the land which is now the home of their fellow countryman, and with which the portion of the word they represent, is so closely identified by social and commercial ties.

Among the subjects in which they will naturally feel a deep interest, and which will occupy their attention, is our method with deal-ing with the large class of the unfortunate and the criminal among us; and, as many of these gentlemen visit our city for the first, and, per-haps, the last time, it seems proper that the people of this city, through their representatives, should extend to them an invitation to visit our justly celebrated public institutions, and acquaint themselves, as far as possible, with their prac-tical operations. As many .of these delegates come from nationalities in which a large propor-tion of our own citizens were reared, it is much to be desired that they should not return to their firesides with any existing prejudices against our form of government, but with pleasant memo-ries and increased respect and esteem for the land which is now the home of their fellow-countrymen, and with which the portion of the world they represent is so closely identified by social and commercial ties.

To Board of Assistant Aldermen: Weekly statement, showing the appropriations

made under the authority contained in chapter 758, Laws of 1873, for carrying on the Legis-lative Department, from January I to December 3*» 1873, both days inclusive, and of the pay-ments made up to and including the date hereof for and on account of each appropriation : Tide of Appropriation«. ^ ¡ ¿ ¿ ^ Payments.

by and derives its powers from an act of the Legislature of the State of New York, entitled 44An act to incorporate the New York Bridge Company, for the purpose of constructing and maintaining a Bridge over the East River, be-tween the cities of New York and Brooklyn." This act was passed on the 16th day of April, 1867. See Chap. 399, page 593 of the laws of 1867.

The 12th section of said act is as follows : 41 The cities of New York and Brooklyn, or

either of them, are authorized to subscribe to the capital stock of said company such an amount as two-thirds of their Common Coun-cils, respectively, shall determine, and to issue bonds in payment of such subscriptions, payable in not less than thirty years, or may guarantee the payment of the principal and interest of the Bonds of the Company in such amonnts as the Common Council shall respectively determine."

It is clear, therefore, that the city of New York had the right to subscribe for the capital stock of the company in question.

On the 31st day of December, 1868, the Com-mon Council of the city of New York, by a two-thirds vote, passed an ordinance in relation to this subject, of which the following is an ex-tract :

44 SECTION I . The sum of one million five hundred thousand dollars is hereby subscribed on bei alf of the Mayor, Aldermen and Com-monalty of the city of New York, to the capital stock of the New York Bridge Company; pro-vided nevertheless that the said charier of said

the Corporation in answer to a resolution of this Board.

LAW DEPARTMENT, OFFICE OF THE COUNSEL TO THE CORPORATION,

NEW YORK, Sept. 27, 1873, To the Honorable the Board of Assistant Al-

dermen : GENTLEMEN : A copy of the resolution of

your Board requesting the references to the laws relating to and the opinion of this department on the matter of the recent appropriation of the sum of $150,000, by the Board of Apportion-ment to the New York Bridge Company, was duly received.

In reply, I inform your honorable body that the 44New York Bridge Company" was created

company shall be so amended that the Mayor, Comptroller and President of the Board of Al-dermen be ex officio directors of said company, and that such city officers shall represent the in-terests of the corporation in said company."

The second section of said ordinance author-izes the Comptroller to issue bonds to the amount of $1,500,000 to pay said subscription.

See proceedings of the Board of Aldermen and Councilmen, vol. 36, page 344.

The law relating to the New York Bridge Company was amended to conform to the pro-viso of the ordinance first above cited, by an act of t e Legislature of the State of New York en-titled "An act to amend an act to incorporate the New York Bridge Company," &c.

By section I of the Act it is provided that the Mayor, Aldermen and Commonalty of the City of New York shall be represented in the Board of Directors of the New York Bridge Company by the Mayor, Comptroller and President of the Board of Aldermen by virtue of their respective offices. This law was passed on the 20th day of February, 1869. See vol. I, chapter 20, page 45 of the laws of 1869.

The proviso in the ordinance above referred to was thus complied with.

Section 112 as amended by section 20, chap-ter 757, laws of 1873, of the present charter of the city of New York, provides, among other things, as follows:

" The said Board of Apportionment may from tsme to time, by the affirmative vote of three members, authorize the issue of the whole or any portion of any stock or bonds which are now by law authorized to be issued upon compliance with the provisions of law authorizing them."

It appears that the total amount authorized to be issued by the ordinance of the Common Council was $1,500,000. Of this sum, I am in-formed by the Comptroller, nine instalments ot $150,000 each have been called for by the com-pany, amounting to $1,350,000. There have been issued to them $1,148,000; $202,000 having Ijeen held in reserve to secure payment for l a n i taken for piers in New York and Brooklyn. It appears from the above statement of the Comp-troller that the Bridge Company is entitled to call for another installment of $150,000, and I am of the opinion that the act of the Board of Apportionment in appropriating the said sum of $150,000 was a lawful exercise of the power vested in that Board.

I am, gentlemen, Very respectfully yours,

E . DELAFIELD SMITH, Counsel to the Corporation.

of Public Works; but not as a means of emolument to the contractor for the printing of the paper.

L A W DEPARTMENT, OFFICE OF THE COUNSEL TO THE CORPORATION,

NEW YORK, September 29, 1873. The Honorable William F. Havemeyer, Mayor

of the City of New York, SIR :—At a meeting of the Mayor, Counsel to

the Corporation, and Commissioner of Public Works, a communication from Mr. P. W. Rhodes, the contractor for the printing of the CITY RECORD was referred to me for my opinion upon the true construction of the statutes referred to by him.

The substance of the communication, is a re-quest to be permitted to publish in the RECORD what are called legal notices, and to receive therefor, to his own use, such sums as persons de-siring the publications in question might pay for their insertion.

By Section 3 of Chapter 758 of the Laws of 1873, the Mayor, the Counsel to the Corporation, and the Commissioner of Public Works may by a con-current vote allow the publication of legal ad-vertisements in the CITY RECORD. There is there-fore no doubt of the power of those three officers to permit the publication of such legal notices as Mr. Rhodes enumerates. The difficulty is that the statute just cited does not give to the contractor for the printing of the RECORD a right to appropriate to himself the emoluments which might arise from such publication.

By section 111 of chapter 335, of the Laws of 1873, the journal known as THE CITY RECORD is established. The Mayor, Counsel to the Cor-poration, and Commisioner of Public Works are therein authorized to appoint a proper person, to-gether with such assistants as may be required, to supervise the preparation and publication of the paper, and fix the compensation of the supervisor and assistants. All the expenses connected with the publication and distribution of the paper, ex-cept the salary of the person appointed to super-vise the same, and except also the salaries of his assistants, are to be covered by a contract for printing, to be made in the same manner as other contracts. The Board of Estimate and Appor-tionment is required to provide for all the neces-sary expenses of establishing and conducting THE CITY RECORD. By the act which I have last cited, nothing is to be inserted in the paper ex-cept such official matters as are in this act ex-pressly authorized.

The legal notices referred to by Mr. Rhodes

have quoted shall apply to any printing or sup-plies of stationery for any department where, b/ the concurrent vote of the Mayor, Commissioner ol Public Works, and Corporation Counsel, it shall be decided to have such printing done or such stationery furnished without contract; but in such cases such printing and stationery shall be procured in such manner and on such terms and conditions as the said three officers shall deem for the best interests of the city ; and Secondly, As I have already stated, section 3 of Chapter 758 of the Laws of 1873 empowers the three officers named, by a concurrent vote, to allow certain advertising in THE CITY RECORD, but not to the use or benefit of the contractor.

It is obvious that the whole scope of legisla-tion in relation to THE CITY RECORD establishes a paper to be supervised, printed, published and sold by the city through its agents em-ployed for that specific purpose; and that there is nothing in * the original act nor in the amendments, permitting the con-tractor for the printing to realize a profit, either from the city or from individuals, for the inser-tion of matter of any kind in the paper. The city itself is the proprietor of THE CITY RECORD, and no individual connected with it can be per-mitted, as the law now stands, to make its publi-cation a matter of profit to himself, except to the extent of the salaries allowed to the supervisor and his assistants, and the amount to be received by the contractor for the printing and publica-tion.

These views, substantially expressed by your Honor, by the Commissioner of Public Works, and by myself, when the matter was under dis-cussion in the Board, are confirmed by the care-ful examination which I have given to the statutes bearing upon the subject.

I am, sir, With great respect,

Your obedient servant, E . DELAFIELD SMITH,

Counsel to the Corporation.

The Commissioner of Public Works is empowered by law to take proceedings to acquire Lakes Mahopac and Kirk, for the purpose of furnishing to the City of New York a " further and inexhaustible supply of pure and wholesome water."
