Ing from tearing down the present structure until the city has paid him for his unexpired lease.

OFFICIAL WANDERERS, The new Court House Commissioners are in & sad plight. They now occupy small quarters in the new Court House, and by @ resolution which was alopted by the Aldermen they are to be put outand the rooms assigned for | Janitor of the building, LOOKING FOR TENANTS, A communication f:om J. & BE, Brooks, of the £z- press, requesting the Aldermen, before they decide | upon leasing rooms elsewhere jor the use of the Corporation Counsel, to examine the first oor of their new building, which they are willing to let | lor $3,200a year. The communication, on motion of Alderman Morris, was-reierred to the Committee on salaries and Ufices, THAT ABATTOIR, The Committee on Health—Aidermen Cule, Mor- | ris and Blessing—made thelr report on the pro- | posed abattoir, root of Fifty-minth street, North | River. The report 1s signed by all the members of | the committee and is dead against the establish- ment of the «abattoir, | us objections made against the establishment of | the nuisance by those who appeared | belore the commitiee to protest against | the Board of Heaitu’s granting the | | permit to the Union Stock Yard and Market Com- | pany the committee state that, in 1874, the Health Board passed an ordinance prohibiting we slaugntering of animals im any pare of the city south Of 110th street, except in buildings located directly Upon the Water iront, each having a ca- pacity suMicient for the yarding and siuughtering | daily of one-half the entire number of cattle and | small stock slaugntered in the city at the time | such ordinance was to go into effect (July 4, 1870). ‘his ordinance was amended on the 19tn of June | last So aS to Make Forueth street the southerly | limit. An application for permit has been pre- sented and, it 1s asserted, favoravly received by the Board of Health irom the Union Stwek Yard and Market Company for tie erection of an abat- | 10ir at Fily-ninth street, and, notwithstanding | the Jace that the appiication bas been witharawn, the apprehension is general among the cicizeus that such withdrawal is obly temporary and that | a uxed determination exists ou the part o1 tne Board of Heaita ty grant tue privilege, and ou ‘the part of the Stock Yurd ant market Company to exercise if, and in proot of this ib may be | stated that the building tor the abattoir is in | Tapld progress of erection, The committee say | that ali expecience proves, and the evidence of | scientists is unanimous in conirminy the fact, | That establishments of Lois character are Injuriwus | to the health, deirimental to the business, and destructive ‘a real property located in | their vicinities. In European cities abattoirs | @re not permuted except outside of the corporate limits and beyond the cuuiines of | the population. ‘The evil effects of suci establish. | ments on the heaita and business oF the priucipal | cities Of the country—notably Pnilideiphia and | Chicago—1s cleari: | ble testimony. ibe comuttee then reler to tue UmaniMmons Oj position by ail classes in the neign- borhoud to the erection of the proposed abattoir, mentioning the Kev. Fatner Young, the Churea | 01 St, Paul the Apostle, the managers o/ the Roose- velt Hospital and influential property owners. ‘Ine committee concluded by proposing the LoL lowing resolutions :— Resolved, That the Legislature of this St hereby respectfally requesied to amend chapter (sz, Laws of 1874, +0 a8 fo exempt the city of New ny ‘« from its provisions, ton of aby to enact a law prohibitiag ttolr at the foot of West F street, Dove boiling, tat-rendering or kindred e Ment within the corporate limits of the city of Ne and be at turther Resolved, [hat the Board of Health of the city of New York be and is hereby requesied and, so far as the Com- mon Couneil has the power, directed not to grant per- mit to the Union Stock Yard’ aud Market Company, or any other company, corporation or mdividuai, tor the ercetion or esiablishineut of an abattoir at or hear the | foot of Fifty-ninth street, North Kiver. President Chandler, of the Heaitn Board, who | was present, took issue with the report ot the | committee in some of 18 particuiars, and made | pretty much the same argument a4 he did beiore | the committee, He stated that tae Union Stock | Yard Company had arter irom the Legisiatare whica authoiized them to build stock yards in | any part of the State, and tbe Health Boarg had | no power to prevent tne jocatiny of a stuck yard | by the compasy at the foot of Fifty-ninth sireet, | and the Boara could step in and have a say as to | their ousiuess only when they began to siaughter | animals, and even then he doubted ii the Board | could intertere with the company unless they | Carried on the business 10 & manner that would | be offensive. ‘Mr. Gilon was In favor of iaying the matter over | for tuture consiaeration. Mr. Purroy said that the establishment of the | abattoir would bring into being a huge monopoly, Mr. Blessing denounced the attempt to erect the abattoir, and said tual 1 it was Once established the butchers would be at the mercy of a monopoly | and that the consumers would in the end have to | pay for the experiment. He sata that he nad been taiking with a butcher that day, who does an im- mense business in this city, about the abattoir, who told aim that he made $40,000 4 year out of the “retuse” portion of the animals he slaugh- | tered, und M the abattoir Was establisnea oe would be compelled to give that up, mdirectly, to | the company. Protessor Chandler remarked that it was nos the intention of the company to compel butchers to hand over their “refuse” to the company, but the | buteners could procure stalls or places fer slaugh- tering parpoes in the butiaing. Mr. Biessing repited that it was very well now to say that the company would not do tis or that, butif they once gut a fooinora they would do as monopolies always do—just a» they pleased. The company could, ti the butchets were compelied to go to the abattoir, charge what rent they saw fit, andit woula be certaiply abigrent. The resait would be that the buteners, ta seli-aelence, would have to make both ends meet by puttiug up the price of meat. Therefore the consamers would be | the suiferers in the long run. Ings said he did not represent big or hers, He had confidence In the Board of | Health, and he thought the embers of the Board | being experts, the Board of Aldermen ought not to intertere in the matier, Mr. Howland took the same view of the case. Mr. Purroy ed Prolessor Coandier who the | incorporators of the Stock Yark Company were. Protessor Chandier replied that the Boura of Heaita never inquired who were the conductors of any lecitimate bustaess. So long as toe bust- ness Was nota nuisance the Soard had nothing | to do with Mr. Blessing said the New York Central and Hudson Kiver Ratiroad Company were at the back of the company. Mr. Vanderbilt, in fact, was the company. | Mr, MeCarthy remarked that if Mr. Vanderbilt, Who never hesitated to override the people's rights | Mr. | Little bate!

James H. Dwight was recog- nized by seventeen jamilies as the pastor of the | Second Presbyterian church, of Harlem. Since thas time the parish and churen have grown ten- foid, and its prosperity has spore than kept pace | with its growth. The courch has now & funded debt of $60,000 and @ fpating aebt of $20,000, and 1b | is promised that the latier will be speedily paid off.
