FRANKLIN WILLIAMS, Clerk.
In Common Council, ) Roxbury, March 15, 1858. > The Joint Special Committee, to whom was referred an order "to consider what action is necessary to take, on... that portion of the Mayor's Address which has reference to the subject of Annexation," have attended to the duty assigned them, and beg leave to REPORT : The Mayor, in his Address to the City Council, says, " The subject of Annexation is one touching the dearest interests of the people, and one on which the people are expected to act ; and the government are bound to carry out the wishes of the people, upon any subject of impor- tance to the community, whenever those wishes are clearly and decidedly indicated." Again, " the small affirmative majority of those who voted on the question, can hardly be supposed to warrant any further immediate action on the part of the City Authorities." At the late municipal election, the citizens of Roxbury decided, by 808 yeas to 762 nays, on the adoption of the following proposition : " Is it expedient for the City Coun- cil of Roxbury to petition the Legislature for an act to annex the City of Roxbury to the City of Boston?" The subject of Annexation was not much agitated ini- mediately prior to the late election, although it has ever been a question in which the people have manifested a deep interest, and whenever any publicity has been given to it, it has not failed to enlist a large number of advocates, among whom, were many of the most influential of our citi- zens ; and it is reasonable to suppose, that had as much publicity been given to the subject, as has been usual on former occasions, the vote would have been much larger : and although the vote was 526 less than that for May- or, it was yet a larger one than has ever been cast at any municipal election, with the exception of the years 1855 and '57, and it exceeds, by an average majority of 238 votes, the aggregate number of votes cast for Mayor for the past six years, as the following statement will show: The whole number of votes cast for Mayor in 1852 was 582 1853 1196 1854 1074 1855 1592 1856 1453 1857 2096 In 1853 the vote on Annexation was 399 nays, 262 yeas.
