A petition from a shipping firm ia the lower part of the ey, requesting permission from the Board to trana- fer from the look stores to European vessels at our wharvew, for transmission to Europe, ten of four thousead seven kmundred bales of cotton and nivoteen halos of woo!, just arrived from Gal is raging, was presented cussion between certain members Dr, Stone was of the opinion that the petition should not be granted aniess the Health Officer stould, in writing, eertity that the health of tia city would nob suffer from ite transporiation to the citys Dr. Swivsvexs said that if the Quaraatine Commis sioners should oblige every uninfected vessel arriving from an infected port to remain in quarantine, or, the Quarantine Commissioners perumilting therm to pass be- yond their jurisdiction towards the city, the Board of Health rofuse to allow thoir passengers or ¢argoes to be landed at the city wharves, we should hawe “nocom- Merce, no cargoes, no passengers, no nothing.” Over a hundred vesse!s had arrived at (Quarantine during t! Present year from infected ports, not one of which, either in its cargo or passengers, had beew found io- fected. Jadge Bosworta—Do thiak, Dr. Swinburne, th: it would be safe to allow ali vassels from tofected ports, that on investigation prove to be uninfected, to come up to the city wharves? Dr. Swivncene—! think that {t would be safe, {the exporienco of past years is worth anything. Dr. Srosm—I move that the subject be referred to the Health OMtcer, with power, Dr. Crayr—I want to know what tho Hoatth Officer has got to do with this question? If I understand it aright, the cotton is now in bond in the Ret Hook atores, which are not under the jurisdiction of the quar- antine authorities. If this be eo, what has the Hoalth Olticer to do with tho subject ? Does the quarantine tend even to the land? Now I move that t! be granted. Dr. Stoxs—Why, what do you'mean, Doctor? Do yor consent to the removal of that cotton to our city wharvos or their vicinity, knewing that infection to he city may be tho result? Commissioner Acron—Why, Doctor, don’t you see’ Crano wants to get the cotton out of Brooklyn, where helives, (Canghter,) President Scuvitz—The question undor dispute i very simple one. {tis whether or not the petitioners shoutd be allowed to transfer cotton from Galveston, an {nfeciod port, from the stores at Red Hook to European stoamors lying at our wharves, with a view to the trans- portation of tho cotton to Europe. It is very plain thas the owners of the steamers canuot be induced to send them to Red Hook just to oblige @ man who wants to ship a few bales of cotton abroad. It ia, { thiak, for us simply to decide whether the cotton should bo allowed of one o yards rourg Be to be placed on the steamer at the wharves. Dr, SwitnuRNe—I move that the question bo referred to the Santtary Committes the counso! of the Board. Mr, President, I decidedly object to the e roquested, at & previous moeiing of this leaith Officer abould prepare a permit or certificate allowing vessels to come up to the city. Wo obtained what we requested, and so 1 thiak this quesiton was, or onght to have been, set at rost by & decision of the Poard some time ago. | Now, then, tf the Health OMcer will certify, in writine, that the eottom at the Hed Hook etotes can be brought up to this city without endangering the beaith of the community, 2 will vote that the petition be granted. That is perfectly fair, and if he'll do that, weil and good; but if be ia not mils ¢ to certify in writing, under his signature, to fact, then I will record my vote against grautiag tue per:nission. Commissioner Acros then offered the following nesola- tion :— Resolved, That the counsel i¢ Board report to (hts Roard what are the relative Juriadiettons and duties of the Tlealth Officer and this Board, es regards qaarant ne. Preaideut Scuvirz—Gentiomen, you bave heard the question. It is mo—. Dr. Stoxx—Hold on # minuto; let meses that reaoin- tion. Now, ait, that's the counsel's baadwriting. I re- gard the resolution as naught, as he fs not a member of this Board, and has no right to offer it. Commissioner Acroy—1 move the adoption of the re- solution. > Dr. Stoxz—I move that the resolution be changed. Lot it be that the counsel of this Board confer with the counsel of the ranting authorities as to the relative powers of this Board and the Board of Quarantine Com- missioners. The question as to the adoption of Commissioner Acton’s resolution was then cailed, and the resolution was adopted, Dr. Stove voting na: THE WERKLY MOR The following mortality in thia city Saturday, 24tb instant Merrorotrrax Boann or Hratri 3, Auguat 3 The week though the perat more than ten degrees tighér than that of mg corseaponding week last ear, and the degree of “humidity was neatly the sane 10 oth.
