The Committee appointed to prepare reply

partment, with reference to the sanitary cnndl-
ton OF this city, beg leave to submit the follow
ing reply to that circular:
| H. j. ANDERSON, Special agent Of the 7re,,s-
ny Department, aRdr Joint Resolution Of
May 81, 1866
| DEAR SIR-Your circular, inquiriug into the
sanitary arrangements of this city, together
with such views and recommendations as our
Judgment and experience may suggest, has re-
celved the special attention Of the Board Of
Health, and The following reply ordered to be
transmitted
ilC htiC uliuCI
the control oil Board OF Health, consisting of
nine. The city has been divided into nine dis
tricts, one Of which is assigned to each member
of the Board; by this arrangement the city has
been put in as cleanly condition as the limited
supply of funds, subject to our order, can Sc
cure.
As this city is visited by steamers, weekly
and semi weekly, from Baltimore, Philadelphia
and New Y Ork, we suggest the prODrieiy OF cS-
tablishing quarantine line at or near Fort
Washington, where Government Physician
and other necessary appliances are constantly
at hand. The proximity of this city to the
National Capital renders it especially proper
that every requirement should be a. hand to
keep the disease from fastening upon this city.
We are greatly in need Of lime, but the depict
ed condition Of the Corporation Treasury rem
ders it impossible for us to secure the ncccssa-
ny quantity. "
We will most cEeerfully cooperate with you
in putting this city in the best possible condl-
ton.
