The tax rate for 1877 was
placed at $26 50, to
raise $29,176,940.
By an act of 1874 the towns
of West Farms, Morrisania
and Kingsbridge, em¬
bracing about 12,000 acres, were annexed
to New
York. The report of
Comptroller Kelly to

August
1, 1877, is given at some length in Y.
25, p. 198.
Last report of Comptroller in Vol.
27, p. 252. Mayor
Ebr, in nis message Jan. 1878. remarked: From an in¬
debtedness of about $18,000,000 oa Dec.
31, 1857, at
the expiration of ten
years, namely, December
1667, the amount had increased to $32,914,421 31,
26.
This covered the period of the
war, during two
years of which, 1863 and 1834, more than
$12,000,000
was added to the debt.
From 1867-8 may be dated
the accession of the
corrupt administration known
as “the
Ring” to full control. This dynasty con¬
tinued in power for
nearly five years, until
during which period the aggregate debt of the1872,
city
increased as follows : 186S,

$35,983,647; 1869, $47,1870, $73,373,552 : 1671, $88,369,3-6 ; 1872.

and many sincere efforts to econ¬
omize expenditures and diminish
the increase of
the public debt. But such
efforts were only to a
limited degree successful, as the

1876 will show:
