wlll recede from the atand he haa taken If the

that the greater dty wlll have i margln of bor

wlll be entlrely iwallowed up by th" coat of
publlc Improvementa already ordered, among
othera the aequlaltlon of land for aeveral j.arks
and the wldenlng of Elm-st. The ctty'a remedy
is the increasing of the valuatlona of the real
eatate upon Manhattan laland, and thla wlll
undoubtedly be done when the charter'i provla

th>. limitM of th-> gi.at.r clty ar. completed.
