THE POUND— PUBLIC BATHS —SEWEE TRAPS—NUISANCES—MEDICAL CARE OF THE Poor. The Board of Health met last evening, and Mr. Marbury, from the sanitary police com- mittee, made & report on @ complaint that ‘adhe pound men bad illegally taken up two tows belonging to Mrs. O'Dea, and that the animais were preperly seized; report adopted. Dr. Verai, from the sanitary com- mittee, reported on the resolution tn relation Zo public baths, that they had received either authority nor money for the con- Btruction of baths, although they had from aime to time discussed tne subject, and nad Plans drawn; adopted. The sanitary com- mittee also — on & communicaiion ‘with plans for building and cleaning sewer traps, recommending that the communica- tion be referred to the Commissioners of the District of Columbia, who have that matter in cnarge; adopted. NUISANCES. A report was made by the jiealth officer op an allege! nuisance on the banks of the canal, between N and P streets, where the Sepot bas been established fordead animals, «e., that while such piace is in some re- Bpects a nuisance, it is a question whether there 1s not a less nuisance there than would be if the work was stopped or the depot re- moved. Tue piace would be carefully in- Rpected, and should it become @ nuisance ipjurions to health, prompt measures will be taken in the matter. The health officer Presented resolutions condemning as nui- ®ences and unfit for habitation the wood structure and premises No. 465 D street Borthwest, the structure aod premises No. S19 G street soutnwest, and ine structure ‘and premises in the alley between E aod F Bnd Sd and 4% streets southwest, property of Jobn Neevan; and be was ordered to abate The same according to law. MEDICAL CAKE OF THE POOR. A communication was received from the Dstriet Commissioners notifying the board That ou the expiration of the present month they will discontinue the payment of the @mount of $500 per month, waich on the 15th mitimo they directed should be set apart for payment to the boerd on atcount of medi- ines and physicians to the poor, and ail ex- Penses on account of same. Dr. Bliss stated that he bad, since the com- munication had been recetved, seen some of tbe Commissioners and learned from them ‘that they probably would be abie to pay this money oul of the poor fand. Dr. Verdi said that 1t was very remarkable that theattorney ( Mr. Birney) bad found out ‘What had not been Known for forty years— that there was no law authorizing ihe exe nditure of money for these purposes—j Mr. Starvury. Everybody knows that custom makes law |—: especially no law author- izing the Board of Health to actin the mat- ter. Some one should have taken ¢! of the snbject, and the board hadi assumed the Tespopsibility of it. While it may be that there is no explicit law on the subject, for years the councils and authorities} 4a annu- ally made avrrcyriasions for this object. ‘r. Marbury offered resoiutions regretting ‘the withdrawal of the montaly allowance for medicine for the poor and medical tendance by the Commissioners, and —— fears that much suffering will ensue herefrom; and declaring that whilat willing fod anxious to continue the work, the board is a to do so on account of the want of funds. A draft of a letter to engl sicians to the poor, notifying them that their services wiil Dot be required after the Sist instant, and returning the thanks of the board for the zeal, fidelity and attachment to duty which bas characterized their labors, and which bas contributed in a large degree to make the service what it was intended to be,@ comfort and biessing to the deserving poor, was submitted. The health officer sald that a number of the physicians had expressei @ willingness to continue the work without pay. Dr. Bliss moved that the letter be sent to the physicians and a similar letter to the druggists, remarking that it will pring tae matter to @ focus. The motion was agreed to, and the resoiu- tion offered by Mr. Marbury was referred to & special committee consisting of Messrs.

Very resnectfally. W. TINDALL, + It is probable, in case the police board decide to reduce the pay of the police, that the amount stated in yesterday's issue was over estimated. Should the present number of policemen be continued on the force, the reduction of pay will not exceed $5 per month. and even this reduction of pay may be obviated by the reduction of the number of men. This, however, is a matter for the board to determine. ———_.——— The Georgetown Water-Tax Ques- ton. BILL TO ENJOIN THE DISTRICT COMMIS- SIONERS. To-day, Messrs. J. H. Bradley, Hugh Ca- perton and W. D. Cassin, for Mr. James 8S. Welch, filed @ bill against the Commissioners of the District and the Water Registrar for an injunction to enjoin the defendants from interfering with complainant in his use and enjoyment of the Potomac water. The bill recites that on the 3d of March, 1859, Con- gress passed an act providing for the care of the water works, in which the engineer is given full power over the works, and it is made his duty toregulate the manner in which the pipes shall be tapped, to stop the same wi er the same {is found no more than adequate to meet the wants of the general government; his decisions sub- ject onty to appeal to the Secretary of the Interior; and that Geor; a determined to pay the whole cost, and under the acts of the of wo he paid his share, and, with the citizens of G own, he should be free from said tax. sets forth bag ae 18th section of act of July 12, 1876, all laws and ordinences in force in Washington relating to the payment and collection of water rents were extended over the District. He charges that if said section 1s enforced great wrong and injustice will be done, and a violation of the contract between the government and the citizens of .—. will result. He sets forth that tbe missiouers to carry into effect this act. and that bills have been seat out by the Water istrar, and prepara- Hons made to shut off their supply of water by the Ist of September.

Editor Star:—Our citizens have been anx- lously awaiting the announcement that the rajlroad companies had to charges half rate fares for round trip tickets to the Phila- deiphia Centennial Exhibition; out, alas, they have waited in vain, and there seems noteven @ glimmer of ahint that such is their intention. Perhaps when the exhibi- Uon is about to be closed, tuere will sudden- ly dawn upon them the brilliant idea that something might be done to increase the volume of travel over their several roads, and that it would be worth whiie to try the experiment. We suggest their trying it now, Sod basing our opinion upon Cg ee we feel justified in assecting that it will prove an unqualified success, In matters of this kind it would be well for Us locopy Europeans, who, it must be ac- knowledged, are very far abead of us in the science of out-door amusements, and from whom we Americans have learnt, and are learning much that is beneficial. Years ago, their abie railway managers began running “excursion trains” at almost nowinal fares, and even the Parliament of Great Britato — by law for the running at certain intervals of time of “Penny trains,” as they are called—that is, trains u; which the charge should not be more than a penny (two cents) a mile for each passenger, and during the whole time their several exhibi- tions were open—both in London, Paris, and Vienna—these trains, which offered such great inducements for those possessing only moderate means, brought hundreds of thousands of them from the surrounding country, who otherwise, there can be little doubt, would never have seen the exhibi- tall. Like causes produce like re- To day there are thousands of te in the city of Washington who would gl: 7 avail of such an opportunity if it is present- ‘ora pay the Fegular fare now charged. lo pay now. This is rut as ‘iT ebould be. The Exnibdition wes mtended to te our hundredth commemorat national birthday in such & manneras would not only amuse, but educate the masses u, to the present high si attainments. Is this being accomplished? as 6 ee Aten cia ae enjoying the great advan’ the Exhibition, — the marimum—the k sboul: signaled @ “twenty-five cent day,” and on aul -— eblidren should be admitted at half price. The railway management ought to issue “Centennial excursion tickets,” good, say, for ten days, and if the same liberal pian be adopted ii the rallways to visitors a8 would soon dispel the apprehension of financial disaster which now this grandest undertaking of the American government and people. The thoughts which prompt this article culminate In the desire that those tn author- ity will take prompt action in the premises in order that the thousands of children in | Washington, accompanted by their parents or guardians, may be abie to visit Philadel- phia during the coming last week of vaca- tion before their school session of tue year begins, curing which they could not leave without working great injury to their schol- astic standing.

PoPULt. The Personal Tax. Editor Star:—We think Assistant District Attorney Birney is in error in his liberal construction of the act of July 12, 1376, (the personal tax law) as he is quoted in tne city press. Moreover, we believe the service of Rotices (‘schedules’) is illegal under the said act, and afier careful scratiny of the act itself, in so far as the collection of the per- socal tax is concerned, we hold thatit is wholly inoperative and invalid.
