DISCHARGE OF MEN IN THE CENTRAL PARK. During the past week 150 men engaged on mainte- nance work in the public parks were suspended by the Park Commissioners. Mr. Irwin, secretary to the Commissioners, explained that the cause of the trouble was the jailure of the Board of Apportionment to act on the following resolution, which had been offered for their consideration on the 4th inst :— Whereas the appropriations for the Department of Pablic were so distribured by t ment to the varions wo me and surplus ment of Public opp ‘opriations; ther exolved, the following named transfers in the ap- for the said Deparguent of Pubiie Parks for 6 ve and ai eby imade, na $15,000 aries of police,” $18,000 from “Harlem River $226 66 surplus of money nce Day celebration” to 0) from “salaries of polics loves, and $10,000, over the Uroux vepartn of Public Parks wenty-fourth wards. The rerolution does not ask, it will be observed, for @ new appropriation to the Park Department, but simply (or a transfer from one sub-department to an- o her of their own surpluses. And even this would not have been necessary, Mr. Irwin claims, if the Board of Apportionment baa been advised by the Park Commissioners when the Board distributed the Park Depariment’s appropriations for 1876 in the beginning from bridges imp priated tor wee Department, ¢ 0. Presiden ot the year. ‘The law docs not — permit the Commissioners: to use even thoir own money when thera is a surplus of it in one sub-department for the maintenance of another. The policy of tne Comptroiler, with regard to the Park Department, induced him to oppose the / Jution and it was laid over for turther consid: his request. Now, the rosult 18 that, although th Park Commissioners have over $48,000 of their origi- nal appropriation unexpended and deposited to their credit in the bank, they are compelled by tho inaction of the Board of Kstimate to suspend many hands who are actually needed to property care {or and govern tho parks.

New Yorr, Nov. 9, 1876, To tax Epiror or tux Heranp:— I visited the large reservoir in Central Park this morning; found only about twelve feet of water in it; could not find out by asking now much the daily sup- ply is, but only that the people got all the department could give Tho cause of the scarcity of water was charged to the unfaith{ul Almighty, who had not sent the expected rains upon the hills and mountains to freshen the tributary streams and notat all to the improvident managers who have allowed leaking reser- yoirs and leaking street mains to run off this neces- sary fluid into hiaden w: think that the filled-in streets, old water courses the sewers are taking in their insatiable mouths a great deal of the water directly irom the pipes, and there is acause for the opinion, Olten when diguing im streets to make a connecii.n with the sewer or water pipe a large leak ts accidentally and unex- pectedly discovered which bas been running for a long time unnoticed. Many dweilings tn this city have their cellars made very damp and unhealthy by these concealed leaks without doubt. The convic- 116n is when all means of remedy have been tried that the moisture and water comes from a spring, and thus itrests. The pubic, no doubt, has strong reason to lieve that the present water famine is from misman- agement of the department. There waste which Gunnot be accounted for and a iack of supply which has not been setisfactorily explained. The letter you published a few days ago, writen by Mr, Schuyler, threw some strong light upon the means of suppiy. | know tbe pablic would iike to learn more from the same source. lt was a clesr account of how relief bad been ootained, and how it could be yet, by practical plavs, Inthe meantime { would recommend that citizens take a practical loterest in assisting the do partment im keeping up an abundant supply of the great necessity, and tbat the Mayor of the city offer a Feward to the finder of broken pip water in cousiderabie quantities, 8 not only waste this necessary article and render dwellings un- healthy many times, but undermine strecis, sewers apdeven the foundations of some of the most costly buridings. The facts as they stand are certainly very Alarming. Should we continue jong in this jeopardy we had better be looking, like Lot, of old, for a retugo in some friendly mountain, A SUFFERER. * THE HUDSON RIVER PROJECT. To tus Epirox or rox Herato:— fam nota ttled engineer drawing fat pay at eithor publicor private expense, and therefore my opinion as to the best means of insuring an ample supply of good drinking water for New York may have little weight. I wish, however, to enter my protest against supply River at Poughkeepsie, as has boen trequentiy urged, A suilicient answer to this scheme 6 covered im the fact that daring the past dry summer the water in the Hudson River jor a distance of fiiteen miles north ot Poughkeepsie has been too brackish to adimit of its u for drinking, of even for steaming purposes on tugs mbouts, except by the frequent application of tht to the boiler, Further, who that is at ail h the steady growth of the many towns aud places along the Hudson. both in population awd manufactures, will caro to drink the water irom a river | whieh recerves the sewage of these many towns. In m9 opinion the wisest course to adops 18 to Gtilize the | Inexhauatible supply of salt water by which our city is surrounded for the extinguishment of fires, clean- Ing and aprinkling the sireots, and the thousand and ° arposes for which, under the present arrange- ment, millions of wallons of the blessed Croton are now daily used and wasted, rather than to spend millions ot in never ending attempts to secure the requisite supply of water by going a hundred or more miles away. 3K B Raw Yorn, Nov. 8, 1876, CENTRAL PARK REGULATIONS, Novaunan 10, 1876, To rae Efrron or tar Benatp:— Tam im the babit of taking an occasional walk in Central Park in the evening. Last evening I sallied forth im the hope of enjoying that luxury, when I was confronted at the entrance (Vifty-ninth street and Fitth avenue) by one of those autocratic individaals gray uniform, who informed me with the utmost con- tempt, although I wore a sixty-dollar overcoat and smoked a clear Havana, that it was nine @’etock, and no one was allowed in the Park after that hour, I bambly asked His imperial Majesty how long was that the case, and he said it was so for the last five years, This I, and everyvody who knows anything of Central Park, know is a falsehood unqualified, and Induces me to ask how iate the people of New York can waik in their own Park without being insulted by the keepers, who unconsciously possess one good quality, in being ‘no respecters ot persons.” Respectfaily, A REPULSED REPUBLICAN.

A CHILD DIES OF THE DREAD MALADY SEVEN MONTHS AFTER BEING BITTEN, A tully developed case of tatal bydrophobia was re- ported at the Corener’s office yesterday, the victim being a child of four years named Frederic F. Tredway, living at No. 1,003 second jaune, The poison re- mained tn bis system over seven months before taking effect, he having been bitten on the 6th of Jast Aprit The following is the written report of the atending physician, Dr. St Clair Smith, accompanying the cor the afternoon of April to the Park for a walk, and as'they stepped street caratthe entrance, Filth avenue and Fil ninth street, a dog, apparentiy without provocation, sprang at the child, bit him tn the face and ran away. The under teeth of the dog caught the child uuder the jower jaw and the upper teoth struck his lace just below the eye (lett side). As bis mouth closed tbe teeth produced oniy sk por- 4 slight abrasion of the cheek, but the ti forated the upper lip avd tore Its way out, leaving @ clear cut of nearly bali an inch indepth. The nurso caught the child and ran home with bim immediately, corner of Secund avenue aud Fifty-third street, His mother, a8 soon ag sho learned the cause of the injury, coumenced to suck the wound, and continued to suck italmost constantly until! saw bim, about an hour abd a uaifatter the accident At this time hem - orrbage, which bad been protuse at firet, was nearly arresied, and the wound had the appearance of baring been boiled, {rom the assiduous sucking it had received, The child was pale, apparently from the Joss 01 viood; which had been cunsiuerable and {nglit might have contributed somewhat to this condition. My first impulse was to cautenge the wound, but on taking into account the hemorrbage and the faithiul sucking it had received, and wishing to avoid any un- neces! disfigurement that might result from cauter- ization decided so close the wound by sutures, it healea kindly and in the course of turee or four days the laat stiteh was removed, I had graver appreben- #1008 about the abrasion on the than about tb wound in the lip; the former, however, was #0 slight that there was no oozing ol serum coven; 1 bathed it with a solution of carbolic acid, und flattered myself that there would be no further trouble. This beliel was strengthened by the fact that a policeman who saw the accident brought adog to the siation house on Fi mth street assured she mother (bat which bit the child. 1 Was summoned to examine him and ound him absolutely fr of rabies, ‘As he was a vagrat ‘The policeman was offered a reward if he could pro- cure the dog, and be, of course, claimed that this one was the culprit, The child continued in good heaitu, with the exception of a severe attack of intermittent fever during the summer, until the day before yester- day morning (8th inst.) ‘His mother noticed at this timo that bis breathing was fnpataral, Later tn the day be complained of nausea and vomited afew times, [ saw bim about half-past eight Pp M. the same day.

If you can imagine a smiling mouth beneath two angry, malicious eyes, you have the picture, A glass of water dissipated avy doubts | may huve bad in re- gard to a diagnosis by producing, a8 soon a8 1 touched his lips, a terrific laryngeal spasin, with loud outeries and a cough that resombled ihe yelp-like bark of a cur, It is unnecessary for me to detail the case turther. Suffice it to say that 1t followed the regular course of similar cases, and he died al t irom laryngeal spasm, induced by attempting to swallow some water. For two hours provions to this he had been able to drink without much difficulty. “As regards treatment I can only say that it was bommopathic. One of the nb potsops was given at first Jor soveral hours; this was followed by beliadonna and finally hyoscyamus was given. It is annecessary for me to add that the result of the treatment was negative. An iuquest on the case will be held by Coroner Wolt- man, Should there be any grounds of suspicion of fraudu- lent counting on either side it should be reported and de- nounced at once.

Indeed, the allegations made against M. du Sommerard were sutticiently disquieting, and mo gentleman would have liked to seo them in print under the gnarantee of his signature, It was @ Viennese journal which Orst started M. du Som. merard as fair game to bant during Parliamentary recesses and the dearth of news im autumn This unserupulous print published, one morning early this month, a letter, dated the let inst, purporting to have been written by M. du Sommerard to a private friend, and which, therefore, could not have been ia any case intended for publieation, even bad it been written by M. du Sommerard. It was a sensational sort of letter, mentioning that M. du Sommerard bad a cousin, who wasa marchioness and who resided in one of the finest casties ia France, whore shooting, fishing ana other diversions wore going on perpetaally. Now, this would bave been harmless impertinence enough, but suddenly the letter broke off trom an agreeable narrative, describing sylvan scenes and field sports, to CURSR THB RXIIMTION AT PHILADRLPHIA, Moreovor, as though that were not a thing to make the hair of godly {clk to stand upon an end, the Viennese print proceeded to show M. du Sommerard’s motives, explaining why and wherefore he cursed. In his capacity of Freneb Commissary General for all In- ternational Exhibitions M. dy Sommerard was statea to bave been brought into very close relations with America, and to baye formed an unfavorable opinion of its popuiation upon the following ground: First—Because Americans bad wantonly burned the buildings which coptained the packing cases of French exhibitors, i Second—Because the Americans, including their police, were thieves who could not be brought to Justice owing to the conuivancoo! the judges appointed to try them. Third—Because American ladies were ugly’; or, to speak in the actual words attributed to M. du Som- merard, AMERICAN WOMEN ARE NOT WORTH POWDER enough to kili them—a@ charge which had aroused in- dignant protest trom the Marquis de Talicyrand- Perigord and other French geaotiemen acquainted with the United States as soon as it was published.

Thus I am oredited with a cor who 4s not My cousin, and with a correspondence in Ger man when, I do not ‘speak or understand the langoage in which I am reported to bave writ- ten, Fivally, 1 have been teased by a rumor that 1.waa on ill terms with Mr. Washburne, tha American Minister, when I have the higi public regard and private esteem for His Excelienc; I must ask you to set this right; and I trust that the Nuw Yorn Henato will seo fair play, and open its colamns to me should sf further explanation be needed, looked up trom the fragk, handsome gentleman who taiked to mo in this pleasant, outapoken way, and saw upon the very walls of his room one of * HONTRK’S \ITROGRAPHS OF THK ART GALLERY of the International Kxhibition, recentiy published at Philade!phia, and [ could see that the subject of it and the interests confided to bim were ever present to the speaker's mind. **Yenez,’’ said he, as we shook bands, for i$ was breakfast time, ‘tenez, 1 have been devoung all my time and energies for months to the Exh bition at Philadelphia, and 1am still doing so. Only Satarday last [ sent away fifteen packers . bj the steamer Canada, and they carried wit them a safiicient number of packing cnses and necessary implements to replace half those that were burned. An equal number of packers, with tne sane quantity of cuses and implements, will follow by next mail Before we part, tvo, let me tell you, that uothing may be eft unexpiained, why I did not per- sonally attend the Exhibition, 1 am an agent appointed by the French government, and I could only have gono to the United Staves as an officer accredited to t Awericau government, France, however, was assured ber the Interpatonal Exh'bition at Philadelphia was entirely A PRIVAT UNDERTAKING, and I had, therefore, no authority to take part in it tp wy oficial character, for French exnibiiors would have demanded a government guarantee tor the safety of their exhinits, and | had no power to give h them. Lam sorry that I could not be present at your great national festival, but the fault was not mine.” Should there be any grounds of suspicion of fraudu- lent counting on either side ub should be reported and de- nounced at once. No man worthy the office of President should be will- ing to hold st if “counted in" or placed there by any fraud. Either party can afford to be disappointed in the reault, but the cowntry cannot afford to have the resuit tainted by the suspicion of illegal or false returns. U. 3. GRANT. A TIMELY WINDFALL.
