State of New York, Messages from the Governors, Vol. 6
Author: Charles Z. Lincoln
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9781528535915
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 1066
Book Description
Excerpt from State of New York, Messages From the Governors, Vol. 6: Comprising Executive Communications to the Legislature and Other Papers Relating to Legislation From the Organization of the First Colonial Assembly in 1683 to and Including the Year 1906; 1869-1876 This period witnessed the adoption in 1869 of the new judiciary article proposed by the Constitutional Convem tion of 1867, which was the only part of the work of that Convention approved by the people. The failure of the work of the convention resulted in the Constitutional Com mission of 1872, which proposed numerous separate amend ments to the Constitution, most of which were submitted to the people and approved in 1874. During the years covered by this volume much atten tion was given by governors and others to the subject of municipal reform. New York city received a new charter, and in 1875 the Legislature created a commission to investi gate the subject of municipal administration. There was also at this time an investigation of canal affairs, which resulted in important changes in administration, notably the amendment of 1876 creating the office of superintend ent of public works. Prison administration was also re organized by the creation of the office of superintendent of State prisons, and the abolition of the office of inspector.

A Pickpocket's Tale: The Underworld of Nineteenth-Century New York
Author: Timothy J. Gilfoyle
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 039334133X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 479
Book Description
"A true story more incredible than fiction." —Kevin Baker, author of Striver's Row In George Appo's world, child pickpockets swarmed the crowded streets, addicts drifted in furtive opium dens, and expert swindlers worked the lucrative green-goods game. On a good night Appo made as much as a skilled laborer made in a year. Bad nights left him with more than a dozen scars and over a decade in prisons from the Tombs and Sing Sing to the Matteawan State Hospital for the Criminally Insane, where he reunited with another inmate, his father. The child of Irish and Chinese immigrants, Appo grew up in the notorious Five Points and Chinatown neighborhoods. He rose as an exemplar of the "good fellow," a criminal who relied on wile, who followed a code of loyalty even in his world of deception. Here is the underworld of the New York that gave us Edith Wharton, Boss Tweed, Central Park, and the Brooklyn Bridge.
