WAsHINGroy, April I3, 1853.
To Robert Murray, O. s. Marshal:
learn with profound sorrow the death Of
Daniel S. Dickinson, late District Attorney
ef the United States, of New York. The
President authorizes me to tender his con-
dolence to the family and friends Of the
loyal and single hearted statesman, whose
voice sounded like clarion to animate
patriots during the war through which we
have successfully passed without the loss of
a State or stain upon the national hono,.

The Board of Health and the Cholera.
The Metropolitan Board of Health met
this forenoon. DR.. Stone, of the Sanitary
Commits, ion, who was requested at the last
meeting of the Board to report what evi-
dence there is of impending pestilence and
what measures should in consequence there
Oh De tEhtIls dul Wudk dCh5 uDue DY this
Board for the preservation of the public
health and which in their opinion the pub
lie safety and health demand, made an in-
pertant report. Tbs Commission allude TO
TO the cases of cholera on the steamship
Atalanta, and say that to-day information
has been received from Washington that
q brig and the schooner Hampden have ar
rived at Bermuda with rags and have been
placed at quarantine under the suspicion
that cholera was on board both vessels.
The report says no doubt cholera will soon
be here, and at present there is but one
hulk in the harbor fit for a quarantine YES
sci. This cannot accommodate over 500
persons. There is no caUseto suppose chol-
era this year will differ from its former Wis
! itation. Whatever may be the case in 9TH
| er portions of the country we cannot but
expect that in the thickly populated cities
| of New York and Brooklyn it will visitits
previous haunts, and that in the filthy dis
| tricts it will be developed and disseminated,
| The report recommends that the Governor
make an address to the public setting forth
the fact that visitation Of cholera is imin-
ent, and giving to the Board of Health
power to incur expenditures for the care Of
the sick both in this city and BROOKLYN as
well as at quarantine, also to close or re-
move all buildings dangerous to the public
health. In conclusion the report asks the
Governor to give the Board increased pow
ers until the 18th day Of July, and if at
that time there is no cholera in the city
such POWER 10 cease; in case the cholera
visits the city then such powers to be.ex-
tended 10 the 18th Of September, at which
time they shall cease.

Fenians.
The Commercials special says the Eng

demonstration of the Fenians, and has
made important representations to the State
| Department with q view of inducing our
government to adopt repressive measures.
| Secretary Seward states that SO far ordinary
/ laws against any violetiOn of neutrality
laws, which will be enforced, are sufficient.
It is understood, however, that Proclama-
tion will be issued.
