INSIDE VIEW

From sn Ooctsonal Corespondenr
ALBANY, Feb. s, 1850
Ihsve been away for q week, and returning 6se
nothing new. The Legislature is as solemn a. ess<s
The last sensation is q voluminous report 70 W
effec. that people die in New. York. As Q mater
of detail, We are informed that in those War6b
where camphene and jersey lightning constitute
the chief Diet undertakers particularly prospsr
not be Furnished without the usual accompsniemes4
of "a BILL" This will settle matters. The mo-
ment any body dies or doesn't die, or fails in any
way to do just what his neighbors choose to thisk
he should do, we are accustomed tn fly to the Leg
islsture and introduce "a BILL" "A bill" having
passed. there's san end on't"-we shall live
forever. BY the way, see that Mr.. Spencer
has introduced "bill" to regulate tAe
health or Health Officers, or Health Officer ef
New-lork (it matters not which, 50 long as It gives
chance to introduces "bill'), and it occurs to NJ
unsophistcated mind that it may be well for Some
body who is up tc these things to study the partie
ulars of that little BILL" At all events, saw .
report of said little bill, which gave all but tws
or three sections prescribing the duties Of The
Health Officer. Those were omitted, as OF httlo
moment Now, this may be very well, but -
those who remember the Health Officers " little
bill'' of 1857, which, in the most innocent msnnsr
in the world and all for the protection of the pube
healthy, gave hlm $40, ,00Oa year extra pay, it may
be matter of interest to look at Mr.. Spencers
" little BILL" especially as that worthy and long
suffering official, " the Health Officer" has besa
supposed to have the confidence of Mr.. Spencer.
A curious thing happened here the other dsy.
1t seems that Mr.. Christie, the member from Rish-
mond County, had occasion to find fault With
Mr.. McMullen or Mullen, aPort-Warden, Hsrbor-
Master, OF some such character-I forget whioh-
and in the debate thereupon ensuing it came out taae
the said McMulen handeda bill to member OF the
Judiciary Committee for consideration, which Bill
seems to have been reported by said Commistee
without note or comment. This is queer; but %
might perhaps be- useful to know from whom this
Mr. McNullen received that BILL"
