Mr. Walker renewed his motion, and said he wanted & new committee to wait onthe Gov- ernor. Mr. O. N.

An- other wanted a special committee appointed to wait on the Governor and get a fuller and more satisfactory answer.

Ivr. Cox, from the sanitary committee, to Whem was rererred a petition to have a pump on K street, between {7th street and New Hamj- shire avenue, submitted a report: ‘That the matter of construction belongs properly to the Board of Public Works, and application shouid have been made to that boy. In ano" her view, the impropriety of applying to the Board of Health 1s not so obvious. The petitioners com- plain that owing to the non-incroduction of Pu- tomac water, and the great distance they are compelled to transport water, they are ‘eniirely deprived of proper facilities in this respec family use andall other purposes.’ They rep- resent that they are powerless, not only to pro- tect their own samtary condition, but to aid the Board of Health in carrying out in good faith its rules and instructions. ‘he argument, in the judgment of your committee, is not without force, and appeals strongly to the sympathy and codperation of our body. The committee, with - out discussing the comparative sanitary value of certain kinds of water, lave no hesitation in recommending the universal introduction into District etties of Potomac water as rapidly as possible, and the gradual removal of pumps as such substitution may be renderad avatiable. Itis a conceded fact that welis in cities,however guarded, absorb impure, excrement! other matters, which render the wa drinking and dangerons to health and lite Mr. Piper explained what he understood ‘the Governor meant by the colored people not being a& unit in the matter. Mr. Marshall Brown said he did not think the Governor meant to cast any reflection on their republicanship. He is not responsible. He don’t know Johnson and Jones or Brown as members of the board of trustees, He has to appoint these men on recommendations trom petsons whom he does know, and in whose representations he places contidence. The mecting, in his opinion, had no right to thrust out the trustees. They are supposed to be edt- neated men, and fit for their positions, but we don’t know nothing about education. Mr. Louis Douglass did not understand that the mecting was called to ask that any trustee be turned out. ‘The colored people had inet to plead for equality before the law, and for com- mon schools in place of colored schools aud white schools. Mr. John H. Cook intimated that there were BLACK CATS ON THE GUBERNATORIAL COMMIT- TEE, and he wanted them hustled out and others ap- pointed in their places. He made quite a lung explanation in reference to the examination of Messrs. White and Greener, and animadverted upon the course of Trustee Johnson. He want- ed the committee increased.

Some of it now remains, according to complaints, two weeks; and if it is not « puitance, he would like to know what is. Prompt action should be taken immediately.
