 INTRODUCTION 
 
 The City of Buffalo is situated in the county 
 of Erie, and state of New-York; is built upon the 
 land adjoining Buffalo Creek and Lake Erie, at the 
 junction of these waters, and contains 10,119 inha- 
 bitants. Most of the City is situated upon a bluff 
 of table land that rises about fifty feet above the 
 level of the Lake. The low lands that extend 
 from the foot of this bluff, (or Terrace, as it is gene- 
 rally called,) to the margin of the Creek and Lake, 
 offering many inducements to particular business 
 pursuits, have been overspread with buildings, and 
 are becoming thickly populated. 
 
 The village was originally surveyed and laid out, 
 by the Holland Land Company, to whom the site 
 belonged in 1801 ; and the settlement may be said 
 to have begun in the following year. Owing to 
 the usual causes which retard new settlements in 
 their advancement, the village made but inconsider- 
 able progress in its growth, until the commence- 
 ment of the war, in 1812, when it became a mili- 
 tary resort. In December, 1813, the place was en- 
 tered by the British and Indians, and every building 
 but two was burnt. The inhabitants were many 
 of them carried captives to Montreal, while others 
 preserved their liberty by a precipitate flight. The 
 loss of property fell mostly upon individuals, and 
 was not only severe, but, in its consequences, truly
 
 calamitous — leaving in many instances, families 
 destitute of house, clothing or provisions, with 
 which to combat the severity of the season. From 
 this period to the close of the war, nothing like a 
 regular and permanent attempt was made to rebuild 
 the town, although such of the inhabitants as could, 
 returned and made temporary locations upon the 
 sites of their former habitations. The news of 
 peace was the signal for renewed exertions to re- 
 build the place, but pecuniary embarassments, and 
 remoteness from market, paralyzed all efforts so 
 effectually as to keep back the place, and retain for 
 it the character of a hamlet only, until the near 
 approach of the Grand Canal, in its progress west- 
 ward, in 1822, gave brighter prospects to those on 
 whom exertions devolved. In 1825, payment was 
 received from the United States, under certain re- 
 strictions, for the buildings destroyed in 1813, but 
 all remuneration for other property lost, was rigidly 
 withheld. Exertions for public advancement now 
 became more visibly efficient; and the attempts 
 which had been several years making to render 
 Buffalo Creek a commercial resort, were now first 
 completely successful. The mouth of that stream 
 had been obstructed by a sand bar which shut out 
 most vessels that navigated the lake, and forced 
 them to resort to Black Rock, where a temporary 
 shelter only could be afforded them, in the open 
 river. To effect the desired object, a loan had been 
 procured from the state, of $12,000, which, aided by 
 private donations, had so far perfected a pier on the 
 south side of the mouth of the Creek, as to exclude 
 sand, and leave an open channel for vessels into the 
 mouth of the harbor. The consequences of thia
 
 were to create a new resort for vessels, and to arrest 
 them in their passage to Black Rock. This neces- 
 sarily caused the building of wharves, store houses, 
 and such other conveniences as were required by 
 the new business pursuits thus created. 
 
 GENERAL VIEW. 
 
 The village of Buffalo was incorporated in 1822 
 and its municipal government was administered by

 corporate the City of Buffalo, was passed April 20, 
 1832. The common council were elected on the 
 26th day of May, and held their first meeting for the 
 choice of Mayor, &c. on the 28th.

 Capital $25,000, which may be increased to 50,000.
 
 The object of this association was to create mill 
 privileges within the city. This object was accom- 
 plished by taking the water out of the Buffalo Creek 
 about four miles from the city, and conveying it by 
 a canal to the eastern boundary about a mile from 
 the city, where there is suflBcient fall for the pur- 
 poses intended. This canal was begun in 1828, 
 and is now in successful operation. 
 
 There is now in full operation on this canal, the 
 following works: — 1 Woolen Factory; 1 Hat body 
 do; 1 Pail do; 1 Last do; 1 Grist Mill; 1 Brewery. 
 The village which has grown up in its vicinity con- 
 tains nearly 500 inhabitants. 
 
 Buffalo and Black Rock Jubilee Water Works 
 Company, incorporated in 1827. Capital $20,000. 
 The object of the company is to supply Buffalo and 
 Black Rock with water. It has already been gene-

 aqueduct being already laid.

 This Institution was commenced in the winter of 
 1830 — 31 by a number of enterprising citizens, and 
 has gradually risen in value and importance. The
 
 8 
 
 objects of the Institution are mutual improvement 
 in useful knowledge, the advancement of popular 
 education, and the promotion of science generally. 
 There is now belonging to the institution a library 
 of several hundred volumes, and a quantity of chem- 
 ical and philosophical apparatus. Weekly lectures 
 are delivered before the Lyceum during the winter 
 season, which are extremely well attended.

 Religious Societies. — There are, 1 Episcopal, 1 
 Presbyterian, 1 Free Congregational, 1 Baptist, 1 
 Bethel, 1 Methodist, 1 Universalist, 1 Unitarian, and 
 1 Roman Catholic. 
 
 Schools . — There are 1 6 district and private schools , 
 exclusive of the Buffalo L. & S. Academy, embracing 
 1 Female Seminary, conducted on the most approved 
 plan, by competent teachers, in which the higher 
 branches of female education are taught. 
 
 Mails. — There are 60 mails per week, received at, 
 made up and despatched from, the Post OflSce in this 
 city, during the winter season, and during the sum- 
 mer, or season of navigation, there are 88 per week. 
 The first mail received here was in March, 1803, on 
 horseback. It was conveyed from the east once in 
 two weeks in this manner, until 1805. A weekly 
 route was thenestablished,andcontinued until 1809. 
 In 1810, the mode of conveyance was changed, and 
 a stage wagon was used. As the country advanced
 
 9 
 
 in improvements, the route was changed to twice and 
 three times a week, and subsequently to a daily route . 
 
 The following is a list of mails arriving and depart- 
 ing from the Post Office in this city in each week : 
 
 Eastern Mail, two large and one small, daily. 
 
 Northern " one " " " 
 
 Western " " " " " 
 
 One large mail for the West by water to Portland 
 Harbor, daily. 
 
 Two small do. to Dunkirk and Portland Harbor, 
 daily. 
 
 One large do. for Michigan, by steamboat, daily. 
 
 There is also a mail leaving three times a week 
 to Batavia, via Cayuga Creek and Alexander; one 
 do three times a week, to Warsaw, via Aurora; one 
 do. three times a week, to Olean and the north of 
 Pennsylvania, via Springville ; and one twice a week 
 to Fredonia, via Lodi. 
 
 Newspapers. — There are the Buffalo Patriot, Buf- 
 falo Journal, Buffalo Republican, and Buffalo Bulle- 
 tin, all published weekly. The Patriot is the oldest 
 establishment, having been commenced in 1811, un- 
 der the name of the Buffalo Gazette. The Journal 
 was commenced in 1815, under the name of the 
 Niagara Journal. 
 
 Public Works. — The principal of these is the pier, 
 built to protect the entrance of the harbor from en- 
 croachments of sand, and upon which the United 
 States have bestowed the following appropriations: 
 May 20, 1826, $15,000; March 2, 1827, $6,500; 
 May 19, 1828, $34,206; April 23, 1830, $15,488; 
 Total $71,194. It is built with great strength, with 
 stone, and is }^ of a mile in length. A Light-House 
 is to be built on the outer extremity of the pier the
 
 10 
 
 base of which will connect with and strengthen that 
 work. To this must be added the termination of the 
 Erie canal, and its dependencies. 
 
 The Erie Canal approaches the village across the 
 low lands which form the shore of the Niagara river 
 at its head, and terminates in the Little Buffalo 
 Creek, a few rods from the foot of the Terrace. 
 From the point of intersection with the Little Buf- 
 falo, to where that stream is lost in Big Buffalo Creek, 
 extensive excavations have been made, which render 
 the whole distance a continued basin, and the same 
 is true of a considerable distance above the point of 
 intersection; making in all one of the most exten- 
 sive and convenient resorts for boats to be found 
 upon the Canal. From this basin, boats pass when 
 necessary into the harbor, and assume their sta- 
 tions either by the side of lake vessels, or at the 
 wharves of store-houses, as convenience of dis- 
 charging and receiving cargoes may require. 
 
 Buffalo Harbor, with which the Canal thus com- 
 municates, is formed by Buffalo Creek, which is of 
 sufficient depth to receive the lake vessels for a dis- 
 tance of about one mile from its mouth, and is con- 
 sidered by mariners as affording the most secure 
 and convenient harbor to be found on the Ameri- 
 can shore of the lake. The present Light-House is 
 situated on the shore of the lake, upon a tongue of 
 landformedbytheshoreofthelakeandBuffaloCreek. 
 
 STATISTICS. 
 
 The number of vessels of various descriptions 
 employed in the commerce of Lake Erie and the 
 upper Lakes is about 100, and the amount of ton- 
 nage about 8000. The increase of lake commerce at 
 Buffalo may be seen by the following table, show-

 taxes and assessments imposed or assessed on or in 
 respect of any real estate as aforesaid, shall be a 
 lien, on filing the roll with the clerk of the city, on 
 such real estate; and in case such taxes and assess-

 found by the collector or collectors, out of which to 
 satisfy and collect the same by distress and sale, 
 the common council may cause such real estate to 
 be sold for the payment and collection of such taxes 
 and assessments as aforesaid, together with the ex-

 tion, the common council shall give notice of their

 ry for the same, to the owner thereof, his agent or

 ability. The jury shall view the premises, and in 
 their discretion, receive any legal evidence, and

 jury shall determine and award to the owner or 
 owners of such land, such damages as they shall 
 judge such owner or owners to sustain in conse- 
 quence of such street, lane, alley, highway, wharf 
 or slip, after taking into consideration and making 
 due allowance for any benefit which said owner or 
 owners may derive from such improvement. The

 and shall describe the real estate on which any 
 assessment is made under this section, in the same 
 manner as is provided in the thirty-eighth section 
 of this act, in relation to the assessment of taxes. 
 If there be any building on any land taken for such 
 improvement the owner thereof shall have ten days, 
 or such time as the common council may allow, 
 after the final assessment of the jury is returned to, 
 and confirmed by the common council, to remove 
 the same; and in case such owner removes such 
 building, the value thereof to the owner to remove, 
 shall be deducted from the amount of damages 
 awarded to the owner thereof, and such value shall
 
 35 
 
 be at the time of the assessment, determined by 
 the jury. The determination and assessment of 
 the jury shall be returned in writing, signed by the 
 jury, to the common council. The common coun- 
 cil, after such determination and assessment of the 
 jury is returned to them, as aforesaid, shall give 
 two weeks notice, in the corporation newspaper 
 printed in said city, that such determination and 
 assessment of the jury will, on a day to be specified 
 in said notice, be confirmed by the common council, 
 unless objections by some person interested are 
 made thereto. All objections to any such determi- 
 nation and assessment as aforesaid, shall be briefly 
 stated in writing, and filed with the clerk. If no 
 objections are made as aforesaid, the said determi- 
 nation and assessment of the jury shall be confirmed 
 by the common council. If objections are made as 
 aforesaid, any person interested may be heard be- 
 fore the common council, touching the said deter- 
 mination and assessment of the jury, on the day 
 specified in the aforesaid notice, or on such other 
 day or days as the common council shall for that 
 purpose appoint; and the said common council, on 
 consideration of the objections made, shall have 
 power in their discretion, to confirm such determina- 
 tion and assessment of the jury, or [ to annul*] the 
 same, and direct a new jury to be summoned for the 
 purposes, and in the manner herein provided; and 
 the determination and assessment of such second 
 jury, shall when completed, be returned to and con- 
 firmed as of course, by the common council, and 
 filed with the clerk, and shall be final and conclu-

 sive on all persons interested. But the said com- 
 mon council shall not have power to discontinue 
 any street, road or highway in said city without 
 the consent in writing of all persons owning land 
 adjoining such street, road or highway. 
 
 § 42. The common council shall have power to 
 cause any street, alley, lane, road or highway, in 
 said city, to be graded, levelled, paved, repaved, or 
 gravelled, and to cause cross and side walks, drains, 
 sewers, and aqueducts to be constructed and made 
 in said city; and to cause any side walks or drains, 
 sewers and aqueducts, to be re-laid, amended and 
 repaired, and to cause the expenses of all improve- 
 ments except side walks made or directed under 
 this section to be assessed upon all the real estate 
 in said city, in proportion to the benefits resulting 
 thereto, as nearly as may be. The common coun- 
 cil shall determine the amount to be assessed for 
 all improvements made or directed under this sec- 
 tion, except side walks, and shall appoint five repu- 
 table freeholders of said city, to make such assess- 
 ment. The assessors shall be sworn before a jus- 
 tice of the peace in said city, faithfully and impar- 
 tially to execute their duty as such assessors, ac- 
 cording to the best of their ability. They shall 
 assess the amount directed by the common council 
 to be assessed for any such improvement, on the 
 real estate deemed by them to be benefitted there- 
 by, in proportion to the benefit resulting thereto, as 
 nearly as may be : and the said assessors shall brief- 
 ly describe in the assessment roll to be made by 
 them, the real estate, on or in respect of which any 
 assessment is made under this section. When the 
 assessment is completed they shall give the like
 
 37 
 
 notice, and have the same power to make correc- 
 tions as in the case of assessment of taxes. They 
 shall deliver a corrected copy of the assessment roll 
 to the clerk of the city, to be filed. Any person in- 
 terested may appeal to the common council for the 
 correction of the assessment. Such appeal shall be 
 in writing, and shall be delivered to the clerk or 
 presiding oflficer of the common council within 
 twenty days after the corrected copy of the assess- 
 ment roll is filed with the clerk. In case of appeal 
 the common council shall appoint a time within 
 ten days thereafter, for the hearing of those who 
 are interested, and shall cause a notice to be posted 
 for five days, in some convenient public place, des- 
 gnating the time and place and object of hearing; 
 and they may adjourn said hearing from time to 
 time as may be necessary : and the common council 
 shall, in case of appeal as aforesaid, have power, in 
 their discretion, to confirm such assessment, or to 
 annul the same and direct a new assessment, which 
 shall be final and conclusive on all parties inter- 
 ested, to be made in the manner herein before di- 
 rected, by five other assessors, to be appointed as 
 aforesaid by the said common council. If the first 
 assessment in any case under this or the preceding 
 section proves insufficient, the common council 
 may cause another to be made, in the same man- 
 ner, or if too large an amount shall at any time be 
 raised, the excess shall be refunded ratably to those 
 by whom it was paid. 
 
 § 43. All assessments for improvements author- 
 ized by the forty-first and forty-second sections of 
 this act, shall be made upon the real estate, and be 
 collected by or paid to the collector or collectors of 
 
 4
 
 38 
 
 said city, except as herein otherwise directed. A 
 corrected copy of the assessment roll shall in all 
 cases, authorized by the said forty-first and forty- 
 second sections, be filed in the office of the clerk of 
 the city; and the assessments shall be a lien on the 
 premises assessed, for one year only, after the final 
 corrected copy of the assessment roll is filed as 
 aforesaid. In case of non-payment, the premises 
 may be sold at any time within the year from the 
 time of the filing of the said assessment roll. Before 
 any such sale, an order shall be made by the com- 
 mon council, which shall be entered at large in 
 the records of the city, kept by the clerk, directing 
 the attorney of the city to sell, and particularly 
 describing the premises to be sold, and the assess- 
 ment for which the sale is to be made: a copy of 
 which order shall be delivered to the said attorney. 
 The said attorney shall then advertise the premises 
 to be sold, in the manner, and for the time required 
 in case of sales of real estate on execution, and the 
 sale shall be conducted in the same manner. The 
 proceedings may be stopped at any time before sale, 
 by any person, by paying to the said attorney the 
 amount of the assessment, interest and expenses of 
 advertising. All sales in such cases shall be made 
 for the shortest period for which any person will 
 take the premises and pay the assessment, interest 
 and expenses. Certificates of the sale shall be 
 made and subscribed by the said attorney, one of 
 which shall be filed by him within ten days after 
 the day of sale, in the office of the clerk of the city 
 and in the office of the clerk of Erie county, and 
 shall contain a description of the property, and the 
 term for which it was sold, and state the amount
 
 89 
 
 of the assessment, interest and expenses for which 
 the sale was made, and the time at which the right 
 to redeem will expire. If the proceedings are 
 stopped before a sale is made, the attorney may in- 
 clude one dollar, and no more, in the expenses for 
 his fees. If the premises are sold, the attorney 
 may include two dollars in the amount of expenses 
 for his fees, and no more. The right of redemption, 
 in all cases, of such sales in the same manner and 
 to the same extent, shall exist to the owner and his 
 creditors, as is allowed by law in the case of sales 
 of real estate by virtue of an execution. The mo- 
 ney, in case of redemption, may be paid to the pur- 
 chaser, or, for him, to the clerk of the city. In 
 case of no redemption, or in case of redemption by 
 the creditor or creditors, the common council shall 
 make to the purchaser or his legal representatives, 
 or the person entitled thereto, a declaration in wri- 
 ting under the corporate seal, signed by the mayor 
 and attested by the clerk, containing a description 
 of the premises, the fact of assessment, advertise- 
 ment and sale, and the period for which the premises 
 were sold; which declaration shall be evidence of 
 a right to the use and occupancy of the premises 
 for the said period, to be computed from the expira- 
 tion of fifteen months after the day of sale. All 
 buildings put upon the premises in the exercise of 
 such right of occupancy, during the period, may be 
 removed, at or before the expiration thereof. 
 
 44, Any person interested may appeal from any 
 order of the common council, for laying out, open- 
 ing, making, altering or widening any street, alley, 
 lane, highway, wharf or slip, to the court of com- 
 mon pleas of the county of Erie, by notice in wri-
 
 42 
 
 an application is pending before said council, for the 
 laying out, making, widening, altering, contracting, 
 discontinuing, paving or flagging such street, alley, 
 road, highway, wharf or slip, sewer or aqueduct, 
 which notice shall briefly describe the nature and 
 object of the application, and specify at what time 
 it will be finally acted upon by the common council. 
 
 § 49. The common council shall have power to 
 order the grading, paving, graveling, raising, clos-

 in said city; and to improve the same by the con- 
 struction of walks, and the rearing and protecting 
 of ornamental trees therein ; and to cause such part 
 of the expenses thereof as they shall deem just, to 
 be assessed and collected in the manner prescribed 
 in the forty-second and forty-third sections of this 
 act, for assessing and collecting expenses of im- 
 provements, mentioned in those sections; and to 
 cause the sale of any real estate, on which such 
 expenses are assessed, to be sold as provided in said 
 forty-second and forty-third sections. But nothing 
 herein shall empower the said common council to 
 divert or obstruct the interest of any individual, 
 in or to any such square or area.

 guarding against the calamities of fire, shall have

 limits prescribed, shall be made or constructed of 
 stone or brick, with partition walls, fire proof roofs,

 when considered dangerous; to prevent the deposit
