A communication was received from Na- thaniel J. Coffin, residing at 1357 K street southeast, asking SS to slaughter a good sound horse, for scientific purposes. He Stated that the blood and refuse matter would be given to the dogs, so that no nuis- ance detrimental to the public heaith would ensue. He desired to prove that the spleen is the great absorbing gland of the pulmonaris, and that miasmaticor marsh eilluvia causes its enlargemeot. Mr. Marbury.—Why does he wish to slaughter a souhd horse’ Dr. Verdi.—He says he wishes to make an autopsy, but it is not necessary for scieatiic purposes, Dr. Keene stated that the party had called on him and stated bis object, and on ques- tioning bim (Coffin) he acknowledged that his year object Was to salt down the horse for ood. Dr. Cox.—You will find horse meat on sale in Hamburg to-day. Dr. Bliss moved that the letter be returned to the writer, with the information that the board of health will not permit anything to | be slaughtered outside of the slaughter- houses. “Agreed to, Dr. Bliss offered-a resoiution, which was adopted, “That the committee on epidemics be instructed to investigate the eircum- stances under which the case of variola was introduced into the District of Columbia | from Cincinnati, Obio, through the person of the cbild, Moilie Garrett, to ascertain and report if, in the absence of any report of this case by the physician in attendance, the jaws or regulations of the board of health have been violated.” —— A Goop WEEK'S WorK.—Contracts were last week entered into by Messrs.
