EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
The Customhouse clique. Messrs Dunn,
Packard 4 Co., were posted to address the
Republicans of West Feliciana this morn
ing. Flaming posters, bugles and runners
were brought into requisition to assemble
crowd; but alas! all to no fruitful end.
Dunn did not put in his appearance, nor
did Mr.. Packard; not even the Confederate
lancer, Carter.
1t is asserted on the streets that meet
ing ~ of the Dummies was held at place
commonly called the BuZzard's Roost, in
St. Francsville, at about II N. to-day, and
that ont Of this ACCOMPLISHMENT, doctor and
all numbering about bakers dozen, a
parish executive committee was chosen to
represent the wishes Of the Republicans of
West Feiciana. 1t is needless to add, Mr.
Editor, that such proceedings are not sane
be plainly indicated by monster mass
meeting which is to convene at short date,
and to which his excellency Governor H.
c. Warmoth is hereby invited to attend.
The Hon. J. P. Newsham, ex-member of
Congress, will in few days take the stump
in old West Feliciana, and you may rest
assured that when he does it our green old
hills will resound with glorious cheers for
the State and national administrations.

economic considerations. As 10 well known,
a solid and good roadway can not be made
from material 90 largely composed Of decay
ing organic matter.
Also. the money paid for the labor en-
ployed in this useless and unhealthy mode
Of treating street and it's cutters would,
in few years, pave the street with square
blocks.
The street ecrapinge from cutters should
be removed to the rear Of the city. The
organic matters would speedily be oxidized
and disappear. leaving earth suitable for
filing. The gases evolved would, during
the period Of greatest danger to the pub
Lie health, be blown away from the city by
southerly winds.
Any depression of the streets below the
proper grade by this mode of procedure
could be filed by batture eand, against
which no sanitary objection lies.
In conclusion, the Board of Health urge
the honorable Administrators to totally
change the plan of street management, and
strongly protest that the present mode of
cleaning cutters, and filing streets with
foul scrapings, is useless, expensive, and ex-
ceedingly detrimental to the public health.

PROTEST OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH
We publish the following protest OF the
Board Of Health:
OFFICE BOARD OF HEALTH,
State of Louisiana,
New Orleans, September %, 1871.
At meeting of the Board of Health, held
September %, 1871, it was
Resolred, That the practice adopted by
the Department Of Improvements, of re-
moving the mud aud filth from the street
cutters and throwing it upon the centre OF
the streets. is highly reprehensible in q san
itary point Of view.
The filth thus removed is either washed
into the gutter, to be repeatedly removed
and washed in again, or becomes c0mpO-
nent part of the roadway.
If repeatedly removed and washed back
it gives forth noisome gases rapidly and
continuously; if it becomes part of the
roadway it slowly decomposes and gives Off
nauseous odors.
The waste material incident to the house
hold and other necessities Of large pOpu-
latiOn furnishes constant and free supply
of organic matter to the gutter, which, be-
ing continually thrown up, the evil is thus
made permanent, ana the roadway remains
largely composed bf organic matter in
con dition of perpetual decomposition.
This stete Of the streets is exceedingly
unfayorable to the health of the commu-
nifty.
immediately removed, it should remain en-
tirely undisturbed, and be trusted to the
action of rains for remedy.
The practice alluded to is improper from

HAsEAs CORPUS CASE TO TEST Cry Or
pINAxCE No 1O25.-We are informed that to-
day Mr.. A. Dalsheimer will sue out writ Of
habeas corpus for William Mclaughlin and
T. Wallace, who were committed to the
Workhouse last Saturday by Assistant Re-
corder Draper under the city yagrant ordi-
nance No. 1925. The points intended to be
made by Mr.. Dalsheimer are. that the law IS
unconstitutional, and that Mr.. Diapers ap-
pointment is no appointment; that all the
Recorders, with one exception, hold Office
illegally. Mr.. Draper holds his Office not
only ty appointment from Governor War
moth, but by election by the City Council.
1t is well that the law be tested, for our
City Council will, in case the writ proves
successful, make another ordinance which
will hold good. The proceedings will be
had in the Sixth District Court.
