In July, 1864, Mr., Horace Greeley,
the editor of the New York Tribune,
which paper now opposes President
Johnson's policy, because, as it alleges,
it is too favorable to the South, wrote
the following letter to President Lin
coin:

NEVADA,


Mr.. Ashley also reported back the Senate BILL
passed March H. enlarging the boundaries of the
/ State Of Nevada by including part of Utah and
/ Arizona.
AIr. Rice Of Name offered an amendment to
strike out the part adding portion of arizona
Territory.
Inresponse to question by Mr.. Hooper ofUtah,
Gr. Ashley stated that the bill took from Utah one
degree east and west, leaving Utah still with S.
900 square miles, instead of 100000 square miles.
He added under the bill the area of the Territories
would be- Nevada, 10000 square miles Utah,
IS, 600 square miles; Arizona III 600 square miles
New Mexico, l2l,00O square miles; Colorado,
104 900 square miles.
Mr.. Hooper, of Utah, opposed the bill on the
ground that the transfer of people from one gov
eminent to another reduced them to mere serfs
He therefore entered his solemn protest against
the bill. The people Of Utah were the first to
make path from the Missouri river to the center
of the continent.
Mr.. Ashley stated that Brigham Young told him
last summer that he had no objection to the pro-
posed ACKNOWLEDGMENT of Utah, as there were but
few if any of his people living in it.
The amendment offered by Mr. Rice was re-
Elected and the bill passed.

Nuisances.

To theGK Editor Of the Press:
was pleased to see the remarks in a late
paper Of your correspondent j. T. G., who is
one Of our eminent physicians, on the fruit
full sources of disease in our city. One OF
these, and an unmistakable one, is the open
culverts that discharge their noxious vapors
all about our town. If cellars and yards are
required to be carefully cleaned and purified,
how much more should these open air holes
which emit increasingly their offensive effluyia
to poison and contaminate the atmosphere
be promptly and effectually abated. When
we consider that the most noxious and impure
substances are constantly going into our COM
mon sewers, how can we wonder that
their fermentation and evaporation should be
continually exhaling as from the mouth of a
sepulcher, from these open apertures. What
possible benefit can these culyerts accomplish
The evil they do is palpable and sensible both
day and night. 't
Z We beg, therefore, that the city government
er grows warmer. This is the opinion of the
health physicians and Of other competent
judges in the city.
Another source of corrupt air is in the dis
charge of many Of our common sewers in the
docks above low water mark. If the air is
poisoned by open culverts, how much more
when the whole contents Of sewers are bodi-
ly discharged upon the soil. We have had some
experience of that, for during the hot weather
last summer the effiuyia arising from some
of these localities was SO offensive as to make
the occupation of buildings in their vicinity
positively dangerous. I'D ~
There Is no such fatal cause of what physi-
clans call blood poison, as such calculations
they are as insidious as they are fatal, and
lay the foundation of typhoids, fevers of q
kindred type, and most fearful of all the
dreaded cholera. 2-A t7lti
We know that the city government is anx-
ious to avoid these contagious, and we nov
write to urge vigorous and e1ectual action
Let the culverts opening upon our streets b.
closed, the sewers be continued to low water
and the docks where they have been dis
charging their poisonous contents be cleansed
/ Hr7g7ea +, t,,.erss-, AN OLD CITIZEN.
