    THE CITY OF PIULADETPIIIA.
ANNUAL MESSAGE OF- MAYOR HENRY.
[Concluded frcm yesterday .]
The receipts of the Girard Estate Tor the year
18(53 were, $171,523 09, and the disbursements,
$171,501 94, - or which the sum of $83,580 09 was
spent for the maintenance of the College for Or
phans.
One honored pupils have been added to thq pre
vious numbero! its inmates, and the buildings of
the Institution ore filled to their reasonable capa
city. Th* greatly enuanced prices of most articles
of food and clothing will materially increase the
cost of supporting each pupil, and as the generous
founder of the College designed, rather to promote
the libeial welfare of a limited number than to
diffuse more scanty benefactions among the many,
a prudent and ju*t policy must restrain the Direc
tors* fr* m an/ effort to extend- its advantages be
yond the present numbej of recipients.
The rich coal lands belonging to this estate, after
many years’ delay, promise an important income
ir- m their leases. The disposal of taese valuable
mining right: should only take place after fair and
open competition, and to prelude ail nndue in
fluence in obtaining preference for their leasing,
the privilege of occupancy should be soldatauc
tion in this ci r y after lull advertisement.
The sui - brought by the heirs of Stephen Girard
a ?*v • city for the recovery of a large portion
oi these lands, af.er a decision in their favor by the
common Pleas of Schuylkill County, was argued
in May last, before the Supreme Court of the
htaie, and the judgment of the inferior tribunal
wafe xevtrstd, ihus securing this property from
ht-iug diverted from the purpose for which it was
devised to the City.
The maintenance of the Blockley Almshouse
With its average population of 2,490 iumates has
r* quired an increase of expenditure equivalent to
21# cents for their individual support each week,
or, the aiffereuce between $1 22# for each ihmate
in J&62, and $! 44 during the present year. The
expenses of the institution were $24 ,088 75, inad
oitioa to its revenue of $15,203 97, derived chiefly
from paj ments of fines and emigrant tax.
The imposition of head-money upon the arrival
of emigrants at this port has been ihe subject of
much complaint by ship owners, and is, doubt
less, impolitic in its tendency, yieldiog but tri
fling income to the city; (the emigrant tax for 1863
amounted to $3,159 00, and was but $1,316 00 in
the previous year,) and probably preventing many
lrom being landed in the city who wouldother
wise make it their destination. Should a line o
steamship. l be established between this city and
European ports, the propriety of abolishing this
tax w ould be more apparent than from it» present
comparative insigniacance.
Tbe average population of the Almshouse was
sixty less than in 18G2. The children's depart
ment has one hundred inmates, and the advan
tages ot its treatment have been marked.
The Lunatic Asylum has-had 859 cases under its
care, of whom 534 remained uncured at the close
of the year.
The statistics furnished by the Board of Health,
as compared with those ot its preceding annual
report, show bnt little change in the average rate
of mortality-within the city. The interments were
15,768, being 691 more than the retnrns for 186-2, but
deducting from the registries of both years, the
number oi still-born, and also of persons who died
ont of the city limits, the difference between the
two periods in the ratio of deaths to the population
is hardly appreciable. The mortality in 1863 being
10 to 435 inhabitants, and 10 to 432 in the yearpre
ceding. This estimate is, in the latter instance,
based upon the census of 1660,'bnt the other com
putation includes the sopposedpopulation of Phila
delphia during the year just closed.
The registered birtns were 15,293, showing an
increase ot 552, and the marriages that were re
cflrded numbered 5,474, or, 812 mere than the pre
vious annual statement.
There was no epidemic or other Occasion re
quiring quarantine regulations during the past
season other than a formal inspection, although
the arrival of foreign passengers greatly exceeded
the emigration in 1662, as did the number of vessels
that were visited.
fiMany or the quarantine laws now upon the
tatute Book have becomeobsolete, while others of
them are ill acapted to existing usages, and it is
theiefore recommended that such modiacat on of
ti eir enactments as experience proves to be desira
ble, should be sought during the present session of
the Legislature.
The subject of burialß within the densely peo
pled ponions ol the city has been repeatediy pre
sented by me lor the consideration and action of
Councils, but X cannot refrain from agatn urging
the prohibition of such practice as a measure of
great Eanitarj value, and 100 well attested by the
results ol s ientiflc research to admit any question
as to its expediency.
The benefits of vaccination have been afforded to
4,028 persons in accordance with the ordinance
making provision for it by public expense.
The Commissioners charged with the erection
and management of a Municipal Hospital, have
selected for its site premises on Hart Lane, in the
Twenty-first Ward, belonging to! the citv, and
have effected such exchange of property with the
owners of adjacent land as will secure to the In
stitution an entire square of ground. A contract
has been made 'or putting up the necessary ac
comodations for patients with contagious diseases,
and the buildings will be completed duiing the
present year. Appropriations amounting to ?50,-
UOU have been made to the commission, of which
$523 62 were expended for incidental purposes.
The payments from the treasury towards the
expenses of the Fire Department, have amounted
to 568,069 19, which were mostly disbursed in the
maintenance ol 36 steam fire engines, 33 hand en
gines, 117 hose carriages, and 10 hook and ladder
trucks. The ambulances, 33 iu nnmber, belong,
ing to several companies, have continued to ren
der valuable and humane assistance in carrying
sick, and wounded soldiers upon their
arrival in the - city, to their destination.
The ability and piomptness of the Depart
ment in extinguishing fires and preventing
Wide-spread con llegrations have been made
repeatedly apparent, and have sustained its repu
tation for efficiency. The force of the Department
has been increased by 9 steam fire-engines, adding,
according to the present rate of appropria’iou,
eighteen thousand dollars to its yearly expense.
The opinion expressed in former messages, that the
steam engines in service far exceed those required
for the public security, is still entertained, .and the
long continuance of the present system will in a
great me,sure depend upon the exclusion of other
companies applying to be located with steam ap
paratus, and thus adding to the already onerous
ccst of the Department.
The commitments to the County Prison were
17,219, being 2,563 more numerous than those in
the preceding year, of which Increase the propor
tion of female prisoners largely preponderated.
The 1 cost of the institution wasS52,U4B 81, showing
the economy which continues to rule its present
management. The revenue ‘amounted to
51C,322 37, from the proceeds of labor,and from the
keep*of prisoners held under federal authority.
Tiie amount expended for the Police Depart
ment, was $433,226 20, being 51,933 62 less than its
cost for the preceding year Ho addition nas b'ea
made to the corps, although the steady extension
ol population and improvement, particularly in
the First, Fifteenth, Twenty-first, Twenty.second
and Twenty-fifth Wards, demands a police super
vision that is wholly impracticable to afford
unless by withdrawing the patrol from their usual
duties in the of the city. Since the
reduction of the force in 1956, mope than 17,25) new
buildings have, been put up within the mu
nicipal hounds, but only twenty-one additional
policemen have beeif authorized, and that specially
lor new seryice in the harbor or ia the parks. The
drill and discipline ot the force have made it com
petent and reliable in any emergency where its'
co-operative power shall be needed, but its num
bers must be increased to enable its officers in their
patrol capacity to offer reasonable protection to
peiscns and property in the districts lately built
up, and I, therefore, recommend that authority bs
given to appoint, at least one hundred additional
policemen, believing such measure to be demanded
by every prudentand really economical considera
tion of the public welfare.
The construction of a new station in the'Seventh
Police District was postponed In consequence ot
the insufficiency of tte appropriation to meet the
iB creased expense of building, but it is believed
that more favorable arrangements will be made to
accomplish that purpose.
The arrests reported by the several Lieutenants
numbered 34,059, which with 596 mads by the
officers charged with the repression of vagrancy,
and 551 by the Detectives, give the aggregate of
35,197, or 7,062 more than were made in the pre
ceding year: -

a corresponding increase. -~
The Beggar Detectives arrested 274 adults and
622 children: from the latterof whom sixty.two
boys and forty-one girls were placed in the' House

Durmg the year 1863, it is known that one bun
dled apd twenty-three persons out of he popula
tion of this city were fatally or seriously burned
by accidents from the careless use ot horning fluid,
matches. &c., besides many cases that have never
been publicly reported
The necessity is daily becoming er<.aler for the
passage o. an Act by the General Assembly of the
S ale, to protect properly in this city trom the
dangers attendant upon the storage and transpor
tation of petroleum. The desite, of inoi*iduaf
gain 6houid not be sufferei to jeopardize so emi
nently tht* interests of the community, and the re
str:c ions which lave been placed upon the hous
ing and ealeof gunpowder, 3 might with few altera
tions be advantageously and properly extended to
this new commodity of aimost equal risk m its
possession.
The Police and Fire Alarm Telegraph parsed

soon as a wise economy will permit.

- The projected establishment of a House of Cor
rection has from various causes been postponed
from season to stason, until its actual construction
appears hopeless, and yet its urgent necessity is
greater to-day tban it ever has been. The great
evil of the present time, that of intemperance only
excepted, so far as relates to the police adminis
tration of a large commui ity,is a want of parental
restraint oyer the children who fill the
streets and lanes, and who receive their first
lessons in lawlessness and contempt for all au
thority from iheir own homes. The experience of
the last three years, warrants the assertion that
more than one-half of the services of the police
force have been required to protect the community
from the petty depredations and mischievous pro
pensities or practices of boys under fifteen years of
age. For this class of young offenders, the disci
pline of a House of Correction, would present
wholesome terrors, while for that older and larger
class who would eat the bread of idleness,although
w r ell able to labor for their maintenance, such da
institution would make of them producers instead
of mere consumers
The depor mentand service of the police fo-ce
are constantly before their , fellow-citizecs, and
whilEt I deem it due to its members to express Kn
own entile confidence in their trustworthy and
efficient performance of the duties with which
they are charged, I willingly leave their repot i
tion asa body, to the appreciation of the com
mnnity whose property they have protected, and
whose peace they have preserved uninterrapted,
through scenes of imminent peril. I may not
however, refrain from stating that when in June
last a rebel invasion threatened an advance upon
the capitol of our State, it was with mnch effort
tnat by far the greater number of the police were
stayed from hastening to join those who were ta
arms tor the common defence. JUI who could
possibly be spared with dne regard to the imme
diate interests of the city, were permitted to volun
teer their services, and whilst absent, they re
flected credit upon their organization, bv their
discipline end conduct.
The Commission instituted m the month of
April, ISGI, to superintend the distribution of
pecuniary aid to the families of volunteers from
this city, has during the last year disbursed
56)1,923 91 for such purpose, including SJ 44)
io: the expenses incident to their trnst andhave
made 2L0,b94 payments to families entitled to the
relief piovided. The total amount distributed bv
the Commission from its creation in 1561 to.tbe end
'Of|lB63, has been 51.620'.?h6 40 requiring on the
part of ihoee who have shared in its labors, a
watchfulness, patience and zeal, that cannot’be
too highly estimate!.
In July-last Councils appropriated half a mil
lion of dollars toprovice lor the immediate defence
of this city. Of that sum. 83", 93225 was expeud-d
by the Mayor under lherequUuioneof the several
Generals who were sue cessively detailed bv the
Federal Government to superintend the erection of
necessary foriilicaiions an a earthworks. The dis
bursements were ctieily for the pay of laborers,
and for tbe materials reqnired in the construction
of-the defences, a part of the appr priation being
med to defray the cost of a carelul topographical
survey ol the ciiy and its vicinity
The expenditures tor this object shonid be re im
bnrsed to the City by the General Government;
and it is believed that wh-n presented with the
proper vouchers such payment will, in due time,
be made. The claims ot the owners of property
taken possession of for the sitesoi defensive works.
haTe not yet be*n settled, but have been deferred
in the expectation that the United States will as
sume the whole cost incurred.
The prompt offer by Prof. A. D. Bache, Super
in'enden’ of the United States Coast Survey, upon
the first alarm of danger to our City, of his own
services and those of-the corps under his charge,
and the zealous and untiring interest which he dis
played at great personal inconvenience without
remuneration, entitle him to the grat-ful remim
of the Councils and people of Philadelphia.
From the last named appropriation the sum ol
SGGjCMi was also paid in bounties, of 525 each, to
volunteers from this city for the defence of the
State, who did not receive an equivalent from at y
other fund. Since the commencement of this year
claims for 53,050 for this bounty have been proven
and paid. In December an ordinance was passed,
appropriating 51,250,rai, to enconrage the enlist!
n ent ol lecrnlts under the then recent call of the
President, by- payments of 8250 to each volunteer
who shonid be duly- credited to the quota of Phi
ladelphia. A commission of five gentlemen was
formed for the proper distribution of this fund
The pay ments made prior to the ctsse of the year
nmonh ed only to 556,000, bat under supplemen
tary appropriations the - disbursements which
hav e been made to the present date, increase that
amount to 53,262,246 33.
The report °f the Brigadier-General commanding
‘Home Guard.” gives an extended statement
or the incidents connected -with the rebel invasion
oi Pennsylvania, and their threatened approach to
this city m June last, and also of the numbers,
equipment*, and condition of the iniiitirv force
under his charge. J .
'Within the last three years, repeated efforts have
been made to induce the-citizens ol Philadelphia to
organize for the protection of their City and State
against the possible incursions of a desperate and
vindictive foe. These efforts hare been attended
with hut partial and spasmodic results; and, alter
two occasions of alarm, within successive years
this whole community has relapsed into the parai
ly zing-apathy of fancied security, perhaps to be
again aroused by dangers yet more startling than
any which have heretofore occurred.

The record of Philadelphia, from the beginning
of the war, that has for almost three years scourged
ibis land, may justly call forth the pride of iis
p-eople. From the first summons lor aid to sustain
the national honor, no other community has re
sponded with more alacrity to every appeal for
the services of its volunteers, or for the contribu

Tbe excitement of popular commotion has never

LA WRI N CE’ S METALLIC BROWN' PAINT
-n-PERCENT METALLIC BASE.
Ibe Meta.Hu- base of this- Paint is composed of
ib*- Protoxide at:d Peroxide of Iron. Its proper*
ties are su.b as to give iteuperiority overall others
in the market for the purpose for which it is re
commended. \- ✓ ' .
It has been proved by thorough exposure, and by
comparison with othe- paints, to be the only re
liable Paint to resist the action of salt water and
salt atmosphere.
It is therefore especially recommended for ship
bottoms, bulls, decks, boiler fronts, smoke stacks
and eu-am pipes, For iron railings, fences, cars,
railroad and other bridges, it is not excelled.
It adapted for _
_ . VtETAL ROOFS.’
It is not affected by acids of gases, and is a per
fect protector against rust on metals, and from
dampness on brick walls.
It mixes and blends readily with other paints,
and by comparison to the amonntof surface a given
weight will eor*»r, costs about one-half as much as
other Metallic Paints.
Wherever this Paint has been used, it has given.
extiss satisfaction, which is, we believe, more
than can be said of any other paint in the market.
