We regret to pei cesTe That Tue bill bc1ore
the House at Springfield, "to create . Health
officer and for Sanitary purposes" in this
cl,y, after passing the Senate has run against
some enag in the House. We are not aware
OF the nature Of the obstruction, and pre-
sumo it ie the mere inertia which naturally
pertains to bill which has nothing but the
pnblic interest to rccommcndit. It was pre-
pared by the " Committee Of Thirty" of our
citizens, who prepared the original bill for
cleansing The river. All who have given any
thought to the subject are In favor Of Its pas
cage, and indeed 1t is deemed by our best
| citizens absolutely essential to the health o1
! the city. We hope the House will pass II

Nh. DESHErr RELEASED Our citizens,
says the New Orleans True Delta, will be
pleased to learn that Mr.. Daniel bennett,
editor Of the Planters (Franklin) Banner,
has been released from arrest by order Of
Gen. Canby. Gov. Wells, we are informed,
called upon the General and laid the facts
Of the case before him, and au order for Mr..
Dennett's enlargement was at once tele-
graphed to the military commandment Of the
post Of Franklin. This is another evidence
Of the determination of Gen. Candy to deal
justly with the people Of Louisiana, and
prevent encroachment upon their rights aud
liberties by his shbordinates.
