Roard of Health BE EPMO AL OF DEAD ANIMALS—THE ODOR LESS COMPANY, ETO. At a meeting of the Board of Health act | ight the Coroner's report was read, showing | that seventeen inque-ts had been held tue past | month. ODORLESS Pres. | Mr. Langston, from the committee to whom had been reterred the matter of prices to be charged for the removal of night soil, reported | that the proper fee to be charged is $1 for boxes three feet long, eighteen inches deep, and eighteen inches wide, ana an increased amount im proportion to the size of boxes: and where smaller vessels are found! im use, thirty-seven cents each. Atter considerable discussion the report was adopted. A CONTRA TOR'S PERYUISITRS. Mr. Langston, also. from the ordinance co! mittee, made a report as tothe fee to be char, by the remover of dead animals when they are found in inaccessible and dificnlt places. He took the ground that the contractor has no Tight to make any charge, and in support of his rosition cited the langnage of the contract, which says that he shall “collect and remove” Mr. Marbory thought Mir. Langston pat too much stress ou the wort -‘colleet.”” It was manifestly unjust to say that the contrac all goto all sorts of inaccessible places tor, dead animals. Some of the stables in the Dis | trict are underground, and some up several fights of stairs, and in case dead horses are found in such piaces it was unfair to pnt the contractor to the expense of going for pulleys, | locks, &e | Dr. Cox said it was an abstract juestion, with | which they have nothing to do—the terms ot the right nor probibit te tender a fee to the | contractor, it was bis privilege to accept it ‘The contract says the contractors shall have the exclusive right to remove all dead animal: | found in the Di-triet. provided that no expens sal! accrue to the Board of Health. ‘The report was laid on the table. AN INVESTIGATING COMMITTER. Dr. Verdi submitted @ resolution that a com- mittee of two be appointed to investigate into alleged delays and trregularities in the removal | of night coil by the (xforless Excavating ( pany. Dr. Bliss said it was right and pro} that some action he taken. in view of the many complaints published in the city press. There | can be no deubt but many of these complaints are fictitious; he cited several instances where | they had been proved to be so on Investigation Messrs. Verdi and Marbury were appointed the committee. =~ OPINION AGAINST A CLAIM ON THE DistaroT Goverxwent.— Mr. Wm. A. Cook, the Attor- bey of the District of Columbia, lias given an inion to the Governoron certain bills filed by | Ym. Bowen for filling lots. «mn the 15th of No vember Bowen proposed tothe Board of Heatth to fil up ots below grade, without compen: sation for it, if the Board would appoint him one of its ofiicers, and bis proposition was ac- | cepted. He now files several bills, some against | individuals, and some against the District of Columbia, and desires payment from the Dis- trict. Mr. Cook says: “ The work embraced in Mr. Bowen's bill done without any au- thority from the execative branch of the gov- ernment. and without any employment of Mr. Bowen by it. The «uestion, therefore, y ded by you, whether you have authority to m these bills or prove them, must be din the ne; ive. This transaction ix one which seems to me to call for marked «lis- approval, and is apparently an attempt on the rtof Mr. Bowen to involve the District in i@bilit: without ¢ slightest sanction on it~ part. opless it can be conteded that the Bowrd of Heal by the aceeptan os af to have work done, wit! 2 from it, ean remier the ivistri ble for the amount. ° Supper Dear room Aroviexy. — This morning the dead body of a man named McLean Han-on was found in a water-closet the boarding-honse kept by Mrs. Triplett, next | @oor to the Unitarian church, on D street.

Unlike other cities, there are comparatively few paid choirs, most eburches adopting the chorus choir system. It seems to be believed that the quartette choir will, sooner or later, monopolize the singing im the eburch. If the quartette bea well selected and good one, a mority of the uncultivated worshippers prefer to listen rather | than mar the harmony by introducing their discordant voices, and if the quartette be in- them on or support them. and again they re- main silent. The stringency in the money mar- ket has had the effect to cartail church expenses in this line. Paid choirs have had to disband, and congregations are at the mercy of the be- nevolent vocalists in their own flock. 9, im one way and another, the practice of gregational singing is being introduced with good effect. Among the Episcopal churches the majority of the choirs are composed of the simple quar- tette. At the Church of the Incarnation, corner of 12th and >. streets northwest, Kev. J. R. Ha- bard, Mr. Robt. Ball is the musical directo Prof. C. W. Chapman, organist; soprano, Mi alto, Miss Janie Bryant; tenor, Mr. W. Parker; bass, Mr. Robt. Bali—an ex- ceedingly well balanced juartette, giving graat satisfaction to the ebuarch. At the Ascension Church, H street, between oth and lth, Rey. Dr. Eliott, congregational singing isin vogue. Mr. Walter is the organist and Miss Davis leads the singing. Some ago this church was rather noted for its 6! oir of Chappel, Burnett, Mrs. Reynolds’ and Miss Kaufman (iow Mrs. Crosby.) The new charch editice being erected, on the corner of Massa- chusetts avenue and 12th street, will call for an fequate musical auxiliary to the impressive pis } service. ‘At the St. Jobn’s Church, Rev. J. Vaaghn Lewie, the choir is a mate octette, the onty o:- tette (male) in the couniry, and is under the direction of Mr, Henry Bradley. It is a small detachment of the Maxenic choir, al! the mem- bers being Masons in good and regular stand- ing, and is divided as follows: 1st tenori, Sam. V. Noyes and George L. Sheri Patterson and G. A. Whittak Ist bassi, Wo eatman and H. H. Bradley; 21 bassi, John B. Dawson and C. W. Hancock. The lewler, Mr. Bradley, is acting as organist for the present. Some of Washingtoua’s oldest and favorite vo- calists will be found in this choir. Who does not remember Dawson's “Old Sexton?’ The choir is well balanced, and has introduced some very valuable selections for its service The Epiphany Church, Rev. Wilbur F. Wat kins rector, has alwavs had a reputation for good music since the days of Heller, (Palmer,) who was for a long time choir-master. choir are Mrs. Camp, soprano; Mrs. Root, alto; Mr. F, Knoop, tenor; and Mr. Nat. B. Fagitt, bass.. Mrs. Kate Pierson (n« (Juail) is the or- gaviste and directress. This choir achieve | wonderful musical results, considering the in- | strumental adjunct, which is old, wheezy and unht the name of organ. With the large and | musical —— itis remarkable that such | a box of discord remain. We commiserate the choir. They are | worthy of better instrumeutal support. At the Trinity Church, Kev. Dr. Adtison, there is also a ‘,uartette choir. Miss Moxon, | . Pierson, tenore, and Mr. D. W. his ts likewise a well ir. The orgaa good one, and the bellows is worked | by water power. ‘At Christ Charch, Navy Yard, Rey. C! D. Andrews, there is alsd a «aartetta.

On dit, that Miss Rapley, danghter of Mr. Rapley, pro- prietor of the National Theater, ‘has a yoice of wonderful beauty and power. On Saturday evening, Colonel Seligson, the prin- cipal tenor of the Georgetown Masonic Choir, Was serenaded at his residence, on Washington street, in honor of his recent marriage. A por- tion of Masonic Choir rendered effectively some selections, and the Colonel responded in a few words of thanks. Some of our amateurs will shortly tender Dr. Perabo, the organist of St. Matthew's church, a concert. The well- known ability of this gentleman makes his presence in our city an acquisition to musical circles.

Riitor Star- If there’s one thing I disttke | more than another it’s to have this identical paragraph flung at me bvevery paper I take uptoread. There was that beautifal Texan female captain; she caused my few remaining hairs to turn a dolefal gray, and now, when Im just beginning to recover from her here comes this atrocious story every paper my mournful eyes happen to scan. It will finish me, I know, and so I may as well say my ‘last words” before it is too late, and must, of course, introdace my grievance. Here it is: A writer in the “HARD oN THE WomEN. current St. Paul's Vagarine offers the following bold challenge to the woman movement in an article on *Milton and Divorce:’ -[f a man really manages to get out of the Bible any de trine about woman except that she 18 man’s in- terior, man’s tempter, man's subordinated helper, under a special curse for the fall of Eve, and under a special ban—ceremouial b too—then I say he is either dishonest or want- ing in mental tiber.”” Now, it strikes me that the misguided being who perpetrated that can't have loved his Bible a8 & good little boy should, and mast have been guilty af any amount of skipping. For instance, Genesis IIT, 22 vy. says: “And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of as, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand and take also of the tree of li and eat and live for ever, &c.” Now, did ever occur to that sapient ‘author to consid what his condition would have been hal £ not been guilty of that «fault? Isn't it jast as plain as that one and one ate two that, but for her disobedience, we sould be void of intellect and knowledge, mere brates in tact; and that the banishment from Was not a punish- ment but A “WAR MEASTRE,” to prevent them from becoming Immortal as well as intelligent? And not oniy did she gain us Knowledge; Modesty calla her mother well. (And just think of it; if she hadn't in- vented (hat, there would be no ankle committee on 15th street on a windy day, no fashion writ- ers, and no Jenkins.) [t was only after the frnit raid that the: an inkling of their beast like condition, tried to improve it. Who then, possessing the raggedest remnant of common sense, or gratitude, will not honor that mach blamed’ woman a great deal more than him who, sneak that he was, (and atter swal lowing, no doubt, the greater part of the fruit,) Whined out: “The woman whom thou gavest to e ith me, she gave me of the tree, and I did ” Poor fellow! how he must have suffered. It’s touching enough to wring tears from a grindstone. And then his “superiority”; it’s simply immense. If, after duly admiring the grandeur of that spectacle, one follows up the course of events, it aepeere very plainly that the sexes were pretty evenly balanced in the scale of ‘+ weaknesses.” If Rachel stole, her ** lord and master” lied and cheated in a superior way, besides which her uniqne way ot “spreading religion” shrinks into utter insignificance. And then the masterly manner in whi “HIT THE NAIL UPON THE HEAD. ‘Talk of * inferiority’ after that, indeed ! Moreover, beside the dozens of utterly wicked, licentious kings, there appearsonly one painted old Jezebel; while as a set-oft to her “Deborah, @ prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she (who) judged Israel at that time,” stands ‘out in bold Teliet. She proved abundautly that she was not ** man's subordinated helper” only; bat that the wisdom which judged, the tact which led, ard the courage which delivered a whole peo. ple trom oppression, were one and all combined n her. Nor is she the only grand woman mentioned When ali the fighting menof Israel were utterly discouraged, and began to make diligent search for hoopskirts and waterproofs, Judith of Bethutia, (she to whom (zias, the high-priest said: 7 that may gainsay thy words. snot the first day wherein thy wisdom is manifested: but from the begin ning of thy days all the people have known thy understanding, because the disposition of thy heart is good. Therefore now pray thou for us, Jael because thon art a godly woman” &ec.) by her courage and wisdom saved her people, and can hardly be called a ‘subordinated helper.” At least they all, even the high-priest, obeyed her and the way she bound ‘le dreaded Holofernes over to keep the peace has never been excelled, I know Then, if we go on a little farther, and see the “tempting” in the beautiful Snsana the irony ot those remarks becomes oppressive. Why, if those two sinful old judg: were living now, and were to play th game cn anybody's beavtitul wife, t be ducked in the nearest pond, to say nothin of the cold lead which might be adiini them.
