It required a powerful stiffnesa in the backbone for
Finney and bis co-workers in the carriage business to
stand the intolerable stench which arose from Well-

long ago as the ICth of June It had been ordered

notified Finney that unless the thing was abated they

Dick Johnson got out of a job at the gas works, and
to celebrate the event, he made for the nearest bar

bottle of whisky in his side pocket, and the other half

delusion that he was at home. The police aroused
Dick in the midst of his most pleasant dreams, and he
is now treating himself in the work-house for a pro

indifferent. Watermelons were excluded, but somebody
grew watermelon hungry, and the doors were again
thrown wide open. Lime was freely used, and as I
think with valuable results, but somebody, who evi
dently did not know what he was talking about, took
up the foolish idea that as cholera took its worst form
in limestone regions, quick lime must, therefore.be
injurious, and council was simple enough to believe
him. There was some talk of lot Inspection—tho only
effective mode for securing cleanliness—but I would
be glad to hear of a citizen whose lot has been care
fully examined and its filthiness reported to council.
Now, Messrs. Editors, this official trilling will not
do. We have too much of life and pecuniary interest
at stake. The sickliest season of the year is just be
fore us, aud I insist upon greeter vigilance on the
part of our city government. A rigid system of in
spection should be adopted forthwith, to be carried
out by the police, and each member of the corps
should be required to report weekly upon the condi
tion of his ward or beat. We should return to the
use of lime, upturn the soil about the city as little as
possible, and only when absolutely necessary; revive

unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That the recent repeal of an ordinance,
prohibiting the sale of melons within the corporate
limits, in opposition to official opinion of this Board,
was premature and unwise, and that the original ordi
nance should be forthwith re-enacted.
Resolved, That the recent suspension of the use of
quicklime upon the streets, was done without consul
tation with the Board of Health; that inasmuch as no
other disinfectant whatever was substituted, such ac
tion was nnwise and calculated to Induce disease; that
under the lime treatment the death rate notably de
creased; that since the suspension of lime the deatn
rate notably increases; and that the use of quick,
lime upon the streets should be at once resumed.
