Section twenty-one of an act passed
May "a, 1866, ito establish Metropoli.

duty of the Metropolitan Police force to
guard the public health" This duty
will not be performed while melons.
green corn, cabbages, cucumbers and
vile catfish are vended in the streets and
at the market houses, and freely eaten by
persons too ignorant, or too reckless, to
guard against the disease that is now
prevalent in the city
1t is, therefore, ordered that on and
after Friday, the 3lst instant, and until
the Board of Health shall have decided
that the use of these articles is no longer
dangerous to the public health, their in
PRODUCTION into the city shall be consid-
cred o nuisance, and the parties offering
they for sale will be arrested.
The.Commissioners have no other OBJ.
ject in the PRONUNCIATION of this order
than the prevention of the fearful conse-
quences that must result from the free
use of the articles named; and it is
hoped that all good citizens will cheer
