OYSTER BIsEASE

Quite panic exists amongst oyster eaters
hereabout, in consequence of reported cases OF
fatal sickness at Annapolis and Baltimore after
partaking Of oysters. The conclusion has been
jumped at that the deaths were from cholera,
brought on by eating oysters, but 1t would ap-
pear probable that the disease may be the
same that prevailed amongst oyster eaters in
1854, and the supposition Is that il comes from,
eating oysters that have become tres and unfi I
for food through an unusual fall Of rain. In
this connection we would point out the nece..
sity for some legislation by the City Coun ellis
or some action by the Board OF Health to pre-
vent the sale here Of damaged oysters Some
times whole feet Of oyster schooners, de-
tanned by storms or contrary winds. arrive
togttner, with cargoes OF stale or damaged
oysters, which are pushed upon the market or
shucked at the wharves by contrabands and
Pc ddled through the city. The emily protection
now afforded to the community is through the
action Of the harbor master and the sanitary
officers, whose powers are limited. 1t would
also seem desirable that there shou Id be s worn
measurer for oysters arriving at our wharyps
The oyster bushel Of 1866 is SAID TO be infiuites
imally small. A leading restaurant keeper on
pennsylvania avenue tells US that his oyster
wagon, which, five years ago, would hold but
twenty four bushels at the utmost now ac-
commodities thirty bushels with the greatest

THE POLICE commemorative
the Board OF Police Commissioners met in their
rooms on 10th, near ID street, The Board trans
acted large amount OF business, much OF il
OF no interest to the public. The subject of re-
moval OF the Police Headquarters, which has
been pending for some time past. was finally
disposed of. The committee reported that they
had arranged for a lease Of the property oppo.
site the City Hall, belonging 70 Mayor Wal
lach and recently occupied by his family, at
considerable less rent than the Board now
pays. They can have the entire control OF the
building, the want OF which con venience is
the principal objection to the present location,
where they are incommoded by the office Of
the Gas Company on the first floor. In the
quarters proposed there is ample room for all
the purposes Of police headq uarters; also, for
the hre alarm telegraph, which will occupy
portion OF the building. The Board authorized
the committee to consummate the lease, and
pancy by the first Of December.
The Board appointed +. A. Boswell and M

decided to make no more appointments Of DO.
