Schools .- There are Charity Schools attached to many of the churches in the city, where the children of the poor members receive instruction and clothing gratis. The most considerable are those of Trinity. the Dutch, the Presbyterian and the Roman Catholic churches. The scholars on the Trinity establishment"

amount to S6; those on the Dutch to about 70; those on the Presbyterian to 50; and those on the Roman Catholic to 100. There is a free school for black children, established by the Friends. but of the number of seholars taught in this, as well as in the Methodist and other charity schools, though considerable, we have yet no account. Besides the charity sehools, there are a number of respectable private schools, where instruction may be obtained at a reasonable price. Many of the teachers are men of learning, but the private schools in general are not trustees annexed may not be unacceptable to our readers. We should be happy to publish accounts of the situation of all the charity schools, would the trustees be so kind as to favor us with the necessary information.
HYMN
Sung by the Episcopal Charity Children, Dec. 2, 1804.
Chill'd by the blasts of adverse fate, Oppres'd by sorrow's gloom : The soothing voiee of parent love All hush'd within the tomb.
Without us, want his vigils kept : Within us, silent woe :
Our infant minds in fearful thought Made every shade a foe.
God's pitying eye our troubles saw : And instantly relief Broke thro' the wintry clouds of woe. And scattered every grief.
Beneath his heavenly wings we find A ealm and sure retreat : O, then, let every orphan breast With grateful transport beat.
Let raptur'd angels bend to hear The mercies we have found ; From human woe wipe off the tear And spread the joyful sound. SOLO. CHORUS. Hallelujah.
We thank Thee, We bless Thee, Hallelujah.
We praise Thee, O Lord. Hallelujah. men.
For evermore,
The school at present consists of fifty-six boys and thirty girls, who are in- structed in the principles of the Christian religion and psahnody. They con- stantly attend divine service at church on week days, as well as on Sundays, and the greatest attention is paid to their morals. The boys are taught reading, writing, arithmetic and merchants' accounts. The girls reading, writing, arith- metic and needlework. They are annually clothed, supplied with fuel, and furnished with books, paper, etc. With a view to extend the usefulness of this benevolent institution, the trustees have lately taken six girls into the house, who are placed under the immediate direction of the mistress of the school, and are provided with lodging and board ; and they are anxiously desirous, if ade- quate support could be obtained, to place all the scholars in the same eligible situation, the advantages of which, to them, must be obvious to every reflecting mind. When any of the scholars are of a proper age for dismission, and duly qualified, they are placed at suitable trades, or services, and others taken in their places.
From Michaelmas, 1803, to Michaelmas, 1804, fifteen boys and nine girls have been regularly discharged, and others taken in their place.

The City in 1805.
under so good regulations as in Connecticut and the other New England States.
Water .- The city is supplied with water from the Manhattan works, situated in Cross street. The water is raised by steam and carried to the reservoir in Chambers street, from whence it is conveyed in pipes under ground to every part of the city, and into the houses of the citizens, in sufficient quantities for ordinary uses. This is a very salutary regulation, but does not supply a sufficiency of water yet in cases of fire.
Public Walks .- The Battery, at the southwest point of the city, is a place of general resort in the summer season, and from its situation in front of the bay is a very healthful, as well as pleasant walk in the beautiful mornings of summer, and affords great scope for an expanded reflecting mind. The Park is an elegant piece of ground, disposed in a triangular form, well planted with trees, and covered with grass and gravel walks. This, like the Battery, would be a place of general resort. were it not for a certain use. which the sovereign people think proper to make of it. When a warm sun beams ou it, a compound of more villainous smells never offended nostrils than issues there. There are many places in the city dignified by the title of public gordens, but they are mere punch boxes, except Delacroix's, and his would not bear a competition with Milton's garden of Eden. It is but justice to Mr. Delacroix, however, to say that the works of art which have been exhibited at his garden have not been inferior to anything of the kind ever seen in America.
Literary Institution .- Columbia College is a respectable literary institution, and has professors in the different branches of science.
