A Wnverly paper says J. P. KutitY and J.

OJEOKBE ENNIS, the polite clerk at the
Ward House, complains that the REVIEW is

sparkling little cotemporary on Chestnut st.,
which has failed to reach us of late.
An Irishman and two protectant divines
were once journeying together in a stage
coach, when in the course of a heated theo
logical discussion, one of the dominies said,
'• Pat, if the devil should send one of his an
gels for one of ns, which do you suppose he
would take?'' "O, .in, of eoorse," wai the
ready answer of Pat, " What makes you
think so?'' " I), because lie's sure of von any

Supplementary statement of the financial
condition of the borough ef Tovranda on the
10th day of February, 1881:
Oordera outstanding Apr. 1, 18S0, $4,050 08
Orders issued to this date, 4,457 00
Total orders, $8,487 14
Orders redeemed during the time. 6,650 C 3
Total indebtedness, $1,027 61
ASSKTTS
Due on Dup. for 'BO, $1,74:1 88
" Land returned, 293 53
44 Switch rent, SO 00
Cadi in Treasury, 797 32
$2,864 73
Of the above indebtednrsa, SI,OOO in in one order,
due
have it redeemed until due.
In addition to the above assets, there is
$591 sl dup from citizens for side walks put
down by the Borough. not all collectible.
It will be seen by the foregoing statement,
that notwithstanding the Borough tax was
reduced one half in 1878, and only 12 mills
assessed for 1880, the debt has been steadily
reduced and the collectible assets are suffi
cient to pay the further necessary e.xpendi"
tures for the balance of the year, ending
March 31st, 1881. leuving the Borough entire
ly out of debt. This happy state of things is
the result of great care by the Council, in
counting the cost, of proposed new work,
not ahsolutly necessary for the public good,
and rigidly enforcing the collection of all
taxes on exhibitions, peddlers, Ac.
The tax of five mills assessed for the sup
port of the I'oor, for the year ending March
31, is sufficient and will cover all out
standing indebtedness, and should the com
missioners he ready to take the charge on the
Ist of April next, no further assessments of
taxes by the borough for that purpose will be
necessary.
The tibial detailed statement of the receipts
and expenditures for Borough and Poor pur
poses will be published at the proper time.
As frequent inquiry is made of the Bor
ough Treasures as to the public school debt,
may lie proper fr me to add that the Bor
ough government has no jurisdiction or con
trol over the department of Pubic Schools.
