PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 27, 1832. To J. R. Ingersoll, Esq. President of the Select Council. Esteemed Friend―The depression in business in the last year, makes it proper to appeal to Hon'ble Councils like others for a reduction of rent. I am well pleas ed with the premises I occupy, and shall continue to take special care of them; but I would respectfully ask such reduction of rent as Councils may please to grant, until the times may warrant a rise, when I will cheerful. ly advance with others. Very respectfully, SAMUEL COMLY. The annexed communication from Mr. Jacob S. Waln, was received, and was referred to the Paving Commit I at the same time take leave to suggest the necessity of an appropriation of two thousand dollars, to meet the bills already incurred by the different Sanatory Hospitals.

"The Sisters of Charity' beg leave to submit respectfully to the city authorities that it would be at variance with the spirit of their institution, and contrary to the rules by which they are governed as a religious community, for them to receive any thing in consideration of their services, except mere personal expenses.

They are aware that for their services, but as a mark of public approbation of their conduct. If their exertions have been useful to their suffering fellow-beings, and satisfactory to the public authorities, they deem it a sufficient reward, and indeed the only one which it would be consistent with their vocation to receive. For the motives which prompted the offering, they are sincerely grateful-and they trust that your Honour and the members of the City Councils will not be displeased (considering the mo tives which influenced them as a religious community,) at their declining to accept any further testimony of that kindness and respect, which, in their intercourse To the Select and Common Councils of the City of with the Hospitals and elsewhere, they have not ceased tee.

Under these circumstances, and a matter recommended by the public good, the subscribers respectfully pray your honourable bodies, to take such measures, as you may deem proper, either under the Girard Trusts or otherwise, for the removal of the fronts of these prejecting buildings to the established line of the street, and the due compensation to the owners thereof for the damages sustained by them. Mr. Lippincott, presented the subjoined petition, which was referred to a joint committee of two members of each Council, and Messrs. Lippincott, Lewis, Houston and Maitland, were appointed the committee. To the Select and Common Councils of the City of Philadelphia. The memorial of the president and managers of the West Philadelphia Canal Company, respectfully sheweth: That a company has been incorporated to make a canal round the western abutment of the Permanent Bridge, at Market street, with a capital stock of $20,000, which sum has been already subscribed, but from the estirnate of the engineers, $40,000 will be required to complete the work, besides what may be required for contingencies. The board of managers have therefore determined to open an additional subscription for $25,000, no part however of this additional subscription to be called for until $20,000 is subscribed. That from the difficulty in obtaining these subscriptions, the B. of Man's. despair of obtaining the necessary sums,unless those interested will subscribe, that from the large front which the city owns on both sides of the river, and from the increase in its revenue, which will be occasioned by the new wharves, warehouses, and other subjects of taxation, which will be necessary in the upper sections of the city, in consequence of the increased trade; your memorialists conceive that the subject is deeply interesting to the City Corporation, and to your constituents generally. Your memorialists would further represent, that the wharves that are now erected or that can be erected on the river Schuylkill, below the Permanent Bridge, will be altogether insufficient for the accommodation of trade. And that unless this canal is made, the upper part of the city front must remain unimproved, and be an eye-sore to the Philadelphian who would feel a pride in seeing the whole of both fronts lined with a forest of masts. Your memorialists firmly believing that the canal when completed will greatly advance the interests of the city, and relying on the public spirit of the Councils do earnestly solicit them to make subscriptions to the stock of this company as will enable it to make the completed canal. By order of the Board. Attest-Rob. Bethell. DANIEL GROVES, President. Mr. Lippincott presented the following petition, which was referred to the Paving Committee. To the Presidents of the Select and Common Councils. Gentlemen:-The Board of Managers of the Philadelphia Exchange, presents to Councils the engravings which accompany this communication, intended to exhibit the appearance of the building when completed, and the proposed arrangement of the streets adjoining it. It is believed that this arrangement will be convenient to the public while it will greatly contribute to the beauty of the structure-and the Board of Managers request the appointment of a committee of your honourable bodies, on whose report if favourable, the necessary ordinances may be passed, for authorizing the change. Very respectfully, JOSHUA LIPPINCOTT, A. FERGUSON, JOHN SITER, GEO. HANDY, LAWRENCE LEWIS, RICH'D S. SMITH, W. YARDLEY, Jr. SAM'L COMLY, Mr. Massey presented the annexed petition which was referred to the Paving Committee, with power to act. Philadelphia, Nov. 8th, 1832. The owners of the houses in Spruce Street, between Ninth and Tenth streets, several months since handed Mr. Baker, Chairman of the Paving Committee, by Mr. James Morrell, a petition requesting the paving of the street back of the said houses called Bond street, not having heard whether the Councils have acted on the petition, the present is to renew the request, and hope they will take into consideration the advanced season of the year, and grant the same. The street back is only twenty feet wide, the curb is already laid by the owners of said houses, and I am informed the Managers of the Pennsylvania Hospital are disposed to lay their curb. Most respectfully, &c. WILLIAM LYNCH. To the Select and Common Councils. Mr. Lippincott presented the following report of the Sanatory Committee, with an Ordinance, which was passed. To the Select and Common Councils of Philadelphia. Gentlemen,-I am instructed by the Committee now acting under the provisions of the "Ordinance for Sanatory purposes," to make to Councils the following Report and recommendations: Immediately after the passage of the Ordinance the gentlemen then composing the Sanatory Committee, entered upon an extensive system of operations, designed as well for the prevention as for the cure of the The remarkable success of their exertions, and the formidable disease with which the city was threatened. comparatively small amount of mortality and suffering furnish the highest evidence, that the measures of the which attended the presence of Cholera in Philadelphia, Committee were judiciously chosen and skilfully carried into execution. By ordinance passed the 4th day of October 1832, a further sum of $2,000 was appropriated, which has been expended in the payment of debts previously incurred, and in the maintenance of one hospital, kept open for the reception of patients until the present time. Further bills to the amount of about $1700 have been presented and allowed, but cannot be discharged until an additional appropriation shall be made by Councils. It is believed that the additional outstanding claims upon the Committee, (if any exist) are inconsiderable in amount. WM. D. LEWIS. remains to be acted on by the present Council, beg leave to report: That in addition to the unfinished business already acted on, the following items remained undisposed of, viz: 1. 1831, November 10th, a Committee was appointed to revise the Ordinances of the City, and the Acts of Assembly relative thereto; several Ordinances were re. ported and passed; but others remained under consideration and were not reported. It is now nearly two months, since Cholera ceased to exist as an epidemic in Philadelphia; sporadic cases, requiring hospital assistance continued to occur until about two weeks ago, since which no patient has applied to the Committee for relief, and it is believed no case has occurred in the city or suburbs. Warned however by the experience of other cities, to expect and be prepared for the return of the epidemic, the Committee have not felt themselves at liberty to dispense entirely with those arrangements, to which the recent visitation gave rise. They have caused the hospital in Jones' 2. On the same day a communication from B. Chew, Alley to be rendered comfortable for winter use, and jun. relative to the title to certain marsh lands on the have contemplated to furnish it for the reception of west side of the river Schuylkill, was referred to a comfifty patients. They have caused the remaining furni-mittee of two members from each Council.-(No reture of nine other hospitals to be collected at the city carpenter shop in Lombard street, so as to be available at any moment, when the establishment in Jones' Alley may prove insufficient for the accommodation of the sick. From this statement of facts, it is obvious, that the most important objects contemplated by the "Ordinance for Sanatory Purposes," have all been accomplished, and that the duties remaining to be performed by a Sanatory Committee, must be confined to the following points, 1. The payment of expenses already incurred, and the allowances of accounts there for. 2. The preservation or other disposition of furniture and other property belonging to the Committee. 3. Such an arrangement of the hospital in Jones' Alley as that with the least present expense it may be available upon any sudden emergency. It is believed, that a Committee composed of the Mayor and three members of Council, would be amply sufficient for all these purposes, and that the present arrangements requiring so large a Committee, might with great convenience be dispensed with. I am therefore instructed most respectfully to recommend the passage of an ordinance embracing the following provisions: 1. The repeal of the existing ordinance for sanatory purposes. 2. The appointment of a smaller and permanent committee with full powers upon all the subjects now requiring attention. 3. An appropriation to meet existing claims upon the Sanatory Committee, and to provide for such further expenditures as the committee may find necessary. For further particulars as to the expenditures of the Sanatory Committee, I beg leave to refer to the detailed accounts which accompany this report. In connexion with the subject it is also proper to mention, that the Sanatory Committee have what they consider a perfectly just and legal claim upon the Board of Health, which at the lowest estimate must repay the whole excess of their expenditure above the original appropriation of 32,800.

Whereas, "The Sisters of Charity" have declined the acceptance of the plate with which it was resolved by the late Councils to present them, in testimony of the public sense of gratitude entertained for their devoted exertions during the prevalence of the cholera, on the ground that such acceptance would be at variance with the spirit and rules of their institution as a religious community.
