Excerpt from Annual Report of the City Inspector of the City of New York: For the Year Ending December 31, 1863 In my communication to the Common Council on l6th December last, I called their attention to these resolutions, and stated that while sweeping the streets is impracticable at this cold, freezing season of the year, I still required funds to enable me to effect the removal of ashes, &c., or their accumulation would be a serious detriment to the interests of the city, causing much greater expense upon the te sumption of the work, than if removed daily.' In another part of this report I have referred to the great import ance I attach to the necessity of clean streets as a sanitary measure, and which I hope will impress your minds favorably, and that I may have my hands strengthened by your powerful co-operation. I te gard the present system, introduced by me, of employing bell-boys, as an important improvement, inasmuch as the necessity is thus pre vented of ashes and garbage remaining on the sidewalks for a longer period than half an hour.
