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 a President and board of trustees. The Act to in- 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. PUBLIC BUILDINGS. The Public Buildings consist of 6 houses of pub- lic worship, and 1 now building; Court House, jail, U. S. Branch Bank, Bank of Buffalo, Buffalo. Literary and Scientific Academy, Land OflBce, 2_; Markets, 3 Engine Houses, and a Light-House. PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS. The U. S. Branch Bank, was established here in 1829. OFFICERS. Wm. B.

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- rally introduced, into both places, nearly 16 miles of aqueduct being already laid. OFFICERS.

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. BuffaloLibrary Association, incorporated in 1816, and now contains nearly 700 volumes. Trustees. — H. B. Potter, John G. Camp, George Stow, Joseph Dart, Jr., H. A. SaHsbury, Nathaniel Vosburgh, James Miller. J. Wilcox, Librarian. 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- 11 ing the number of arrivals and departures from 1815 to the present year.

At the first election under this act, and at each annual election thereafter, there shall be elected two Aldermen and one Assessor for each ward, each of whom shall be an actual resident of the ward in which he is elected. § 7. Thealdermenof each ward, or such persons as the common council shall for that purpose ap- point, shall be inspectors of such election after the 16 first; such inspectors shall have the same powers and authority as the inspectors of a general state election. § 8.

The ballots and poll lists being found or made to agree, the inspectors holding such election shall then proceed to canvass and estimate the votes. 2* 18 § 14. The canvass being completed, a statement of the result shall be drawn up in writing by the inspectors, which they shall certify to be correct, and subscribe with their names, and file the same with the clerk of said city, on the same or next day after the canvass is completed. The inspectors of each ward shall severally determine and certify who are by the greatest number of votes elected aldermen and assessors of their respective wards. § 15. No person entitled to vote at any election held under this act, shall be arrested on civil process within said city, on the day on which said election is held. § 16.

The clerk of the city shall certify the approval of the common council on such instru- ment, and file the same; and a copy of such instru- ment, certified by the clerk, under the corporate seal, shall be presumptive evidence in all courts, of the execution thereof by such constable and his sureties. All actions on any such instrument, shall be prosecuted within two years after the ex- piration of the year for which the constable named therein shall have been elected, or appointed, and may be brought in the name of the person or per- sons entitled to the money to be collected by virtue of such instruments. § 25.

The jury shall be sworn by any justice of the peace in said city, faithfully and impartially to execute their duty, in making such assessments, according to the best of their ability. The jury shall view the premises, and in their discretion, receive any legal evidence, and may, if necessary, adjourn from day to day. Such 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 said jury shall also at the same time, assess and ap- portion the expenses of such improvement on the real estate benefitted thereby, as nearly as may be, in proportion to the benefits resulting therefrom; 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.

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.

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.
