the one was the general question ft t)M boundary,
arising out ot the treaty of Ghent ; ; and the otlier
was with respect to the of our
agreement for die sake of preserving jurisdiction
and possession uudist ;rbed by t|.e the two par

With respect lo the former par| ot the subject,
a proposition was made by my poble friend the

remarks as follows;

REPORT.
In obedience to a resolution of the Board of Health,
the Chairman of that body submits to the City
Council the following Report:
As soon as the Board of Health was organized.it
proceeded to lay off the city into small districts,
each of which was placed under the supervision of
one raem.er o; the Board, who was instructed to
proceed forthwith to tumine into the rendition of
the sectian ai oted to bin—fins duty was gen
erally performed in an emcient manner and the re
ports of the state of ti.e various divi-ions in general
highly sat.sfactory. Subsequently to this survey,
our city has been .nuudated, and new sources of
disease have been thereby generated. Sin- e the
freshet, sufficient time has not elapsed to justify
the Board in making anothei examination, yet they
arc pleased to have it in their power to state, that
the citizens gtnerally seem to te making every
effort to restore their lots and cellars to a hea.lhful
co'dilion.
The Board have published to the citizens their
views in relation to the lest methods of obviating
the unwholesome influences of the late freshet, and
intend instituting a stiict examination of the whole
city, to be commenced on and after Monday next
Tbe energetic and judicious efforts of the Mayor
and City Council in removing the new sources of
disease produced by the late inundation, render any
suggestion from this Board superfluous. It would
therefore conl.ne itself to a recommendation, that
la future no trash or refuse matter be permitted to
be thrown into any of the public or private al eys
of the city , and that the 5. -avengers’carts be re
quired to make occssional visits to the-e alleys, for
t ie purpose oi removing any trash which may have
been deposited there.
The Board of Hea th feel great pleasure in being
able to state to your honorable body that no epi
demic or contagious disease exists in the city, and
that the health of the place was never better than
at present. Very respectfully,
I. p. GARV IN, Chairman Board of Health.

loe special co.Tina.ttee appeintei by resolulion
of April loth, to ma*a an experimental er,q ~ry
into tne mod etib.m,* and economical mole of d.s-
of the trash and nibbisacollected iai y from
me streets by tbe scavengers'carts. Leg leave to
offer tbe following Report:
la co-nmeacing its investigations, three modes
cf accjmp .-n.ag me object contemplated in toe
resolution, were p.esented for me consideration 0
yea- committee.
Ist. Thru-wing it Into the r.ver as bad been here
tofore done.
2i. Burying it under ground ’.firientlr dee; to
prevent any bad effects from the erilavia ar.s.ng
from decomposition.
3d. Separating the immediately combust ble part
from that whicti is le»i so or damp, f jffe.ing toe
litter to become dry, and tina- y the whole
to be consumed by fire.
T e Best process has already been effectually
tiled,and frem tbe effects produced,your committee
deem it unnecessary to enter into partku.ais. We
feel coanienl tint no one would ne w. to
rr.it our population to tne consequence? that wouti
inevitably arise from a s.mßax expenmeaL
The second mode is not .css o' e.tionat e than
tie lir?L la addition,the labor required to open
excavations sufficiently large to contain such a mass
of filth, and 10 rover it when ‘deposited, form’ aa
important objecUon on the score of economy; be
s-des ntg.igeoce m petfunning the wora mignt leal
tu mast fatal con sequences, as the individuals
charge 1 with its execution coo'd slight it in ?uch
a mincer as to deceive tbe eye. while the evil
w . uid, unperceivtd. progies’ to an irremediable ex
tent, an 1 1 .us arouse tbe attention cf tue comm urn*
9) *s in the f- rm: r instance, when it would be Tx>
late.
After the rnjit careful experiments, your com
mittee ; rl no besita'ioo ,n recommending tbe third
a» tut* most certain, effectual and economical m>de
j of accompu-bing lb.- desired o.‘_ect.
That port oo of the tra-h. See. which is immedi
ately combustible, can easily be separated from
that which is less so or damp; the latter, by being
spread out and exposed Ur a day or two to the ac
tion of tbe sun, soon becomes dry, and the whole
may readily -e consumed, nothing remaining but
charco. . ashes, and the u-> uai quantity of o d bnck
-5 bats, oil tin aud broken c:o aery ware, all of which
are perfectly innocuous. The two former, in fact
may irather be rvgaidei as -alutarj in their effects ;
and by a little care in cohecting the masses from
the streets, in the first m-tance, the brickbats, Ac
might, be separated and conveyed away in a sepa
rate cart.
Your committee has found that oae expert and
intu>lriou> laborer is suffi-lent to separate, dry,and
keep the combustion going on at the same time ;
and should you, at some furore period deem it im
portant to coustro: t aback furnace, or something
of that nature, the expense in iaoor would still
dimini ied, and t.*- effi ,eucy oi t ie operation in
creased, as less charcoal, Ac. would remain. By
the process of« every partic e of matter,
liable to decomposiliuo, can be entirely- consumed
or driven od, and not a vestige will be left calcu
lated to produce the shy.test icyar»o';s effect.
5 oar committee find, upon exam..jing the IhL-ty
eighlii section of the General Ordinance, that its
provisions, in relation to the dispo’ili.n to be maoe
cf the dead animals found within tbe coiporale
limit? of tie city, are sufii.eat, and only .equire
to be rigidly enforced.

Degrading Position for a Cabinet Officer.
A>JOS KIVDitL
One of the most miquitoas productions that
we have read Gr a long time, is the add ess of
Mr. Arnos Kendall to the people of the L niled
States. The spectac!-' presented by this bitter
and over-healed politician in his recent move
ments and present position, is one calculated ii
call a bln-h to toe cheek of every American citi
zen. The people of this country have been in
the habit of regard.ng toe Cabinet officers of the
administration—those entrusted with the high
and responsible business of presiding over the Dc
pirimeat-. and con dtingin a!i momentous cases
with the Chief Mugstrate hi.uself, as elevated
and magnanimous men. above the mean ar.d piti
ful devices of grovelling demagogue-, and as
viewing with scorn C'ery th’ug l.ke low triatery,
underhanded cunning, and mercenary v.ews.
How sad, then, the contrast wLch Mr. Kendall
presents to tills picture! He occupied the impor
tant position of Postmaster of the United States—
an offi e of high honour, and with a salary of
JoOOO per annum. This office he resigned, eith
er voluntarily or by compulsion—and in his re
signation. made a mean and sordid appeal to the
sympathy of hi- parly throughout the Union.
Xay, he announced his determination of chan
ging his position from a Cabinet officer of the
Americas, government, to a writer of political
paragraphs for a mere parly newspaper ! This
would have been well enough, had it been an
nounced in a frank and manly spirit—had Mr.
Kendall said that he preferred the vocation of an
editor, than which there is none more responsi
ble. But the affair was managed throughout in
a truckling and mercenary spirit, and calculated
to disgust even those who had before looked up
on Mr. Kendall as an able and high-minded man.
j He whines ot his poverty, and says ‘‘he has not
j been fortunate enough to accumulate wealth in a
public office. ’’ Therefore, such of the faithful
throughout the country, ns wi I forward each a
dollar to Mr. Kendah’s extra Globe fund, will
confer a great favor. &c. Is there any thing in
the history of our whole government so utterly
paltry ! A Cabinet officer throws up his place,
and at one and the same mo nent, becomes a po
litical scribbler and a political pauper! Mean
ness—thy name is Kendall. The whole country
should revolt and turn with disgu»t at a speci
men of littleness so degrading—at an instance of
parsimony so disreputable. The instead
of supporting suen a man, and responding to such
an appeal, should throw him oil with con.empt.
It is said, moreover, that Kendall, instead o! be
ing poor, is exactly the contrary. Thus, the
Xew York Times asks if “Colonel Allen, a mail
