Matters and things unnoticed unknown during the
winter assert their presence in a manner not grateful

The recent lamentable case of the National Hotel
at Washington City, has drawn attention to the very
hurtful influences of impure air, caused, in that H.
stance, by defective sewerage. The efauvia arising
from water Closets prives, etc, has been shown to
