Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1866-04-17

8. House on the 5uln INST
I are being made to make it a splendid
affair.
y TEE srREErs.-The warm weather
seems fairly inaugurated, and We are
pained to say the sanitary condition Of
the citv is very far from being in a salts
4 factory state. Court street, In the vicin-
= itv OF Fourth, has highly offensive water
{ standing in the uncovered drains on both
/ sides Of the way and two OF three streets
d and alleys not far ffom the Post Office,
D after night particularly, diffuse odons
, suggestive Of anything but " Arsby the
blest - and certainly must cause sickness
q in thst vicinity, if prompt and efficient
, steps are not Immediately taken TO rem
edy the evl.
Gayoso street r~unning5to Front Row.
|. inst on this side Of the Gayoso Hotel,
i suffers from defective drainage, and at
midday emits an eauvium sufficient to
destroy a mule, If compelled to long en-
, dure the noisesome smell. Tonight the
Civ Council meets, and we call upon the
Honorable Board Of Mayor and Alder
men TO examine into this matter, and DO
something 70 remedy this state q things
while there Is still time for exertion. We
are far behind all other cities, North or
South. IN timely measures 20 prepare for
simmer heat and the too probable ap-
pearance Of cholera or yellow fever.
MECHANICS MEErISa.-A meeting Of
| the United Mechanics Association was
held al the City Hall last evening, Pres
ident Synnott in the chair. The attend
snce was rather small. The Presi-
dent remarked that be had in his
possession some interesting statements
in reference 10 the great labor move
meuts in New York, Baltimore, st.
Louis, Cincinnati, Mobile and New
Orleans, which he intended 10
read on the next meeting night for the
benefit Of the association. For their in
/ formation at present he had the pleasure
! Of announcing that the difficulties which
recently spraug up between the journey
men iron and stone moulders Of Albany
and Troy, IN the State ofNew York, had
been satisfactorily settled, upward OF one
thousand men resuming their daily toll.
He wss also glad to state that
the strike" which occurred on the part
[ OF printers In Richmond, Va, had been
adjusted. In fact sgch was the progress
Of reform among the mechanics, artists
and workingmen Of the United States
within the past month, that glorious re-
suits are anticipated from the proposed
united WOrkingmen's Congress in Bal
tim0re next August. He would
avail himself OF an opportunity at the
Memphis Mechanics Convention on the
first Monday evening in May, to present
q portion Of the facts connected with the
workfngmen's reform throughout the
country, 10 their notice, and hoped that
on that occasion a large assemblsge
would be present to assist in the perma-
nent organization Of 3 League. After
appropriate remarks by Messrs. Fender
CAST, Barnes and Johnston, the meeting
adjourned till the first Monday evening
in Nay.
