\ THE PUBLIC TH, #ix Cases of Chul maneneaal in New York— Cases and T Deaths im Brooklyn—Number of Dea’ Dar- ing the Past Week—Active Measures of the Health Board for Disinfecting the Contagious Districts of Brooklyn, &c. ‘The bulletin of the public health for the twenty-four hours ending at two o'clock P, M., Saturday, July 14, 1866, read on yesterday iat Dr. Hallock reports a mild “ease of cholera at No, 206 Henry street, The premises, ~are in good order, and have been thoroughly disinfected. ADDITIONAL CASES REPORTED. Mr William Matthews, of No. 349 Canal street, was ‘{aken with symptoms of Asiatic cholera, on Thursday night. He had been spending th ening with a friend in Brooklyn, aud on his return, was seized with cramps and vomiting, He became speechless for several hours. The Health Commissionors attended him, and pro- nounced it to be a case of cholera of the Asiatic type. Early on Friday morning he was given up by the doc- tors, but in the course of the day he rallied, and is now in a fair way for recovery. * On Friday night Dr. H. Gomez, of the New York Dis- spousary, reported a bad case of cholera at room 15, on -the third floor of the tenement house 134 Mulberry ‘street—that of a little girl aged ten years, named Cecilia Reed. Dr. August Herman reported on Friday evening Mrs. Gives, of 37 Pity stroct, as suffering from an gttack of cholera morbus, Dr, Randall subsequently telegraphed for disinfectants, A-woman died suddenly last evening at No. 9 Broad- ‘way, under circumstances which lead io the belief that “the discase was cholera. A “sure case of cholera’ was reported last evening by ‘tha Ninth precinct pulice, the case being that of Mary Aun Dempsey, of No, 286 West Thirteenth street, who was guffering from a collapee. Disinfectants were sent in both cases, FOUR CASK8 AND THREE DEATHS IN BROOKLYN, At eleven o'clock yesterday morning another fatal ease of cholera on the corner of Putitam avenue Downing street, was reported to the Health Board. Dr. T. M. Ingraham reported the case of Henry Lott, aged Hh ave, of Flatlands Neck, attacked on the lth inst., but now recoverins. A Mrs. Bywater, residing on the southeast corner of Gates and Marcy avenues, was attacked Friday morning with cholera, and died in the afternoon of the same day, Mr. Jobn Moran, a wholesals liquor dealer doing busi- hess at the corner of Hudson avenue and iiilary street, died very suddenly at midnight. The deceased waa a man ot irregular habits. NUMBER OF DEATHS DURING THR PAST WEEK. Up to two o'clock P, M. yesterday the total number of deaths from all diseases wiich had occurred in tue city curing the past week, not including those of the pubiic jasti:utons, whic. had not reported up to the hour men- toned, was eight hundred and forty-four. Ten were fatal cholera cases, and the vast majority the immediate effect of acute diarrhea. The spread of this type of disease, thongh not un- ‘gual at such seasons as we have just but partially emerged from, is suggestive of the timely and most im. portant action adopted by the Health Commissioners at their session of Friday, incident to the thorouvh disin- fection of certain distr cts in the city of Brooklyn, b» ‘fweon which and New York an uninterrupted stream of ¢ommunication is kept up. ‘Tho cholera in Brooklyn is now far in excess of that in this city, and seems to be exclusively localized in the xests of filth.

Under this authority the Corporation freqaently erected markets in the public streets. It is net beyond the memory of many of the inhabitants to cali to mind the markets in Maiden lane, neat Broadway, and from jn Od lip, im Wall street, and iHiy therefore, to say that an extension of one of these markets ‘over the sidewalk fs such ‘an obstruction of ¢ public street as may, on account of its illegalil be _declaned e peblic tloease’ "Oo the, coteay until otherwise judicially devrmined, I should be in: clined to hold such extension of the market to be within the charter rs of the Corporation, or, at least, that before the Board of Health coud declare ft to bo & nuisance for that cause, they should obtain a judicial determination that the facts exist which make it such nuisance. The power is given by the islature to regulate and control the public markets, but that power is limited, viz: “So far as rolates to the cleanliness, venti- lation and drainage thereof, and to the prevention of the sale or offering for sale of improper articles therein."” This limitation of their power over the mar- kets excludes all other right to interfere with them, un- less some other authority can be found for it. 1 do not consider it to be either an unlawful ‘upon the street or a nuisance as such is detined to be by law, and can see no authority by which the detendants, under the powers vested in them, can oder them to bo re- moved for this cause, I consider the powers of a board of health to be very extensive, and in some respects with- out control; but these powers are only in connection with the subject matter for which such board is called into existence, but when they go beyond such authority and attemps to control and late the public affairs irre. spective v3 the preserv of ong Dans Ren 4 attempt the exercise of powors not vested in them, do acts which the courts should restrain.

T would wish to drat the atteatio# of the authorities to @ nuisance that exists in this bay, from {tifaéhss masvou of offal in a putrofed state, floating around the ships; ghe stench therefrom is intolerable and very loathsoute to the sight. The men in the offal boat dump their load immediately after leaving Fort Hamilton; therefore it has not time to be carried outside ere the flood tide brings it back again to the shore. | The people of Staten and Long Islands must suffer a great deal from this nuisance, and I hope, for the sake of the health of the people on board the ships quarantined in this bay, that they will take this very important matter into their serious consideration and compel this plague and muis- ance to be abated; conferring thereby an immense favor and blessing upon about fiftee dred human beings now stationed at the Lower Quarantine James O'Rourke, Quarantise, July 14, 1966.

Mr. Dodworth presented quite an attractive programme to the numerous visitors of the Park yesterday. The overture to Masaniello, Scherzo Vorologio, by Ardity, La Messagire d'amour waltz, by Gounod; the charming cava- tina, La mia Letitsia, from J Lombardi; the march from ‘The Prophet, an episode of a Night in Paris, by Koura- kin, Coote's Boudoir Quadrille, and the Tour of Europe, by Conrad), were performed by his band. The Tour of Europe is @ pretty and ingonious pot pourri of European national airs, The tourist is supposed to start from Ber- lin by rail, the locomotive being represented by the usual clashing of the cymbals, accompanying o light tri- fling sort of galop, which might be profit. ably left out, Arriving im the Austrian do- minions, he compliments the Kaisor with a fow bars of the National Anthem, and is succeeded by the horn and whip of his postillion. The Tyrolienne, Ranz des Vaches, &e., bring him through the Tyrol and Switzerland; and & ridiculous imitation of a tarentella, with the stirring Viva Uitalia, reveal the sunny shores of Italy to him. Next fcllows one of the most beautiful national melodies ever composed, the French Partant pour la Syrie. The ‘sound of the castanets and the sparkling bolero and gitano bring the traveller across the Pyrenees to the land of the Cid and Don Quixotte, Embarking for Scotland on the ever boisterous Bay of Biscay, the ominous groans of the ‘bass instruments and rattling of the tenor drum denoted storm, which, at Inst, convulsed the entire pagoda, and seared several juveniles who had ventured inside the forbidden precincts of the ropes despite the stern policemen around, Mr, Dodworth having piloted the traveller and bis band through the storms, the musical tourist tarries awhile in the “and o' cakes,’’ hears further south the oft-repeated boast that Brittania rules waves, passes through Prussia, Poland and Hungary, and finally takes the “back track’’ for Berlin. And so ends Conradi’s Tour of Europe, ‘There are many better and many worse ideas of such a subject. The whole pieco was like Prussia itself on the map, full of straggling dependencies. It reminded us irrésistlbfy Of tre fraditional coat of a used up gentle. man, composed of pleees oi every hue and pattern. The march from the Prophet was spoiled by being too weak its massive, grand and spirited theme being eutruated alternately toa couple of brass and reed instrumenta. It was but @ hollow echo of the Prophet March that we have been accustomed to. The episode of a Night in Paris is very good, the patrol making their rounds, and discovering at every corner new themes for which Kour- akin, the composer, deserves some crodit, The Park Commissioners have done a great deal with their domain, and that, too, in a short time. If they would only add to the’ Mall or its vicinity some estab lishment in the hotel line, where the numerous visitors could adequately supply’ the inner man they would render those Saturday concerts still more aitractive. People who run the gauntlet of the cars on thar way to the Park like to combine a feast of music with some- ing substantial and less intellectual, ‘The arsenal, too, in ita infancy. There should be Zoological Gardens in the kc, like what they have in Europe, and the Art Museum would be much benolitted if there were leas colossal humbugs and more real art in it. Among tho thousand visitors there yesterday, we noticed a large proportion of the Ethiopian element, The ambrosial wool of the down-town barber glistened in the scorching rays of the sun, and the formidably developed mouth of bis dusky charmer grinned a complaisant assent to his amatory compliments, On the Mall were the usual array of proi- ty distracting curla, indescribable hats and the latest summer toilettes, according to Le Follet. There wero but comparatively fow carriages on tho drive, The number of visitors to the Park this summer is greatly in excess of that of previous years. concerts aro al- ways well attended, the thermometer and the cars to the contrary notwithstanding. THEODORE THOMAS’ ORCHESTRAL GARDEN CON- CERTS. Tho alarming state of the thermomoter for tho past week seems not to have had any effect on the attendance at those popular aud geslly excellent entertainments. Night after night the beautifal Terrace Garden is crowd. ed, and the extraordinary number of visitors taxes the energies and resources of the six brothers Koch to the utmost, On Tuesday and Priday nights in particular there is always ® jam, and many persons have to be turned away at the entrance. The classical character of the programmes on those nights will explain the cause of tho increased attraction. Last night the gardens were il. lominated as brilliantly as usual, and every nook and corner, even in the secladed arbors, had a circle of music loving visitors, The following programme was per- formed :— 1.

It ts truly refresh. tng, after a week's toll and labor io the city, where, for the last fow daya, we have been literally roasting, to re- pair to such a place as this, where, surrounded by ac- quaintances and abundance of flowing lager, and listen. ing to good music, we can onjoy a few hours’ perfect repose. Judging from the appearance of the assembly yesterday, enjoyment seemed to be their sole object, and even one son of Erin so far forgot himeelf as to leave bis habitual refreshment and fraternige with those of the Teutonic element. The proprietor of the park has spared n@ pains to make his place a delightful one for an excursion. The tasteful and elegant building is a model. The caged ‘animals are a never ending source of delight to the nu- merous juventies who teem on every side. Bowling alloys, shaded walks, great trees, abounding with leaves, ‘and healthy, not puny and sickly, as we have them “ down town,’ form attractions for the sider pleasure seokern, Groen grass is even & luxury.

This lady has a prolific pon, and is in all the freshness and vigor of hor literary powers, “'Trodden Down”’ is better than her last novel, “Common Sense,” and equal, if not superior, to her “Kate Kenn ” The story is of simple constructio: but very carefully worked out, Marion, a daughtor of poor but proud parents, is engaged by them to be mar ried to. Mr, Baukslops, who holds a heavy mortgage on thelr property, He i# disliked by our heroine; but as ho promises in the event of the marriage taking place the debt, her parents are very anxious to com- arrangement, The day for the ceremony is Marion urges her parents not to urge her into # nection £0 repulsive to her, but fails in her en treaties, and on the day previous to that appointed for the weading she elopes with the hero, Vance D'Arcy, whom she bad attended during an illness resulting from & sovere accident, and to whom she had become tenderly at oy live for some time in reUremont and inthe enjoyment of the most perfect happiness, Suddenly Maron's peace of mind is destroyed by learning that Vance bas another wife living. She decides on quitting him, and files to her parents, who receive her ungractous ty, and who only allow her, after considerable hesitation, to ovcupy a portion of the homestead (reported to be haunted). She is treated more as a sort of domestic than as a membor of the family, but bears her lot with resig- nation. Finally Vance discovers her, and on learning that before he married ber he labored under the convie tion that his frst wife was dead, aod that she was now really #0, #he consents to go again through the ceremony and to resume her place in his household The chief merit of (he story consists in the strength of its deserip- tions and ite fino portraiture of character. That of Marion is very forcibly drawn, and we learn from it with what resignation and firmness a pure, true hearted wo- man, actuated by « sense of duty, can submit to the most terrible trials and humiliations, We don't know when we have derived more pleasure than from the perusal of this charming tale. Tux Avosties. By Ernest Rénan. Carleton. ‘This work, which bad been promised for some tim has appeared at last, and Carleton furoishes us with pretty good translation. “The Aposties’’ is ® continua tion of the author's firet work, “The Life of Jesus,” under the general title of the “Origia of Christianity.’ Woe ere promised a third—the life or works of the Apostie Paul—to complete the series, Whoever has read the frst may understand the char- acter of the second. The style, scope, motive and gen era) features are the same. With @ great deal of labor Gwplayed, laborious research, abundant reference to his. torical authorities, an extensive knowledge of biblical literature and careful analysis, Mr. Renan shows little logic. He in # littérateur, « man of science and s good deal of & post, but not a logician. A Paley could scatter all his theories and assumptions to the winds. He makes Chris- anity a romance which is founded on certann facts, and, under the pretext of a love for truth and selence, lays the axe at the root Of what he confesses to be the most sublime religion and system of morality ever conorived The whole of bis superstructure 1s based oo the theory that nothing is to be believed that j* contrary to o perience, or that cannot be demonstrated as a ma matical problem, that, im fact, religious faith is not more than weak credulity, He is a scientific enthusiast or fanatic, as much #0 a* certain religious people of un sound jodgment are fanatics, He has a greet contempt for the common rense and Christian spirit of certain Protestant countries, which be designates stupidity and mediocrity. M. Renan aims to four far above t mon mind, and places slow esiimais upon the native Intellect or the common sense of inankind With him cow art and science are everything; that i, art and sei in an methetical and mental sense, rather than in mechanical and strictly useful, While the great value of art and science as elements of progressive civilization, we see there i something above and superior to there. Some of the greatest minds, and perhaps we may way the greatest, have bed little cultare in the scholasue or artistic sense. This wab- lime Nazarene, whom M. Renan im a cert y Calle divine, wasan humble snd untatored man, speaking of Him only as man; yet no one before Him or rince hes approached Him in the grandeur aud beauty of His mo- rality, We migist name shakspere and othe ~ dently great men, who were not learned dotore of ect 0 M.
