and that is that the different police courts are In a
very dirty condition and none or them have the
comforts, appurtenances or requirements which
are necessary Tor the proper discharge OF business.
Judge Smith-The Court to which / am assigned

connected with II is In very fthy condition.
There is no stove in the court room and no COAL

PEELED to keep my overcoat and gloves on. move
that committee OF three be appointed TO make an
investigation into the condition OF the different
court rooms and to wait upon the Comptroller and
ask him to furnish the necessary supplies.
Judge Flammer-A committee waited some time
ago on the Comptroller, and he promised 10 do
what Is necessary.
Judge Smith-Well, there is a great deal OF red
tape about that office, and think that commit
tee had better wait on him again.
The motion was carried and Judges Smith, Wan
dell and Kasmire were appointed as the COM
mitree.
Judge Murray-I move that as no assignment has
yet been made OF Judge Wandell that he shall Sit
In special Sessions IN place OF Judge Otterbourg.

Is necessary that some action should be taken in
this matter Immediately.

NEW YORK PUBLIC BATHS.

The baths have already been open
ed in New York city for the season.
There are but two of these--one on
North river and the other East river.
Both are under the control Of the
board of public works, and were built
at q cost of $4,000 each,
The number of bsthers last sum-
mer was upwards Of half c million,
of which 412,000 were males and
10000 females, on alternate days.
These baths, it is presumed, are sup
piled by the river water In Balti-
more the seat of population is too fer
from the clear river water to avail of
it for popular baths but when We
have in Baltimore the full and abun-
dant supply of water for which the
additional works are now building our
authorities may well afford also to
provide public baths for the people
who need them. Meantime, it has
been suggested that the public
lot and spring in Calvert street, con-
tlgOuS to the center or pOpul2tIon anu
convenient to the laboring classes,
would afford admirable facilities for
q free public bath. The New York
public baths are copied after the Bos-
ton system, which has been in sue
cessful operation for many years, q
surprising ratio of the population of
the latter city regularly using them.
Philadelphia rather imperfectly tried
the experiment ofpubllc baths year
or two ago, but the editices were not
properly preserved after a season and
thus went dowu. To the New York
baths admission is by tickets obtain
ed gratuitcusly, though twenty-five
cents is deposited for the towels, OF
which twenty-five cents are returned
to the bather on the return Of the
towel. Twenty minutes are allowed
each bather.
1t is evident that all large cities
would do well to consider the question
Of public baths, as civic health is
largely dependent on civic cleanliness.

Wash for Trees.

In reply to an inquiry whether lime
is beneficial to an orchard, the Ger
naantOaoo Telegraph replies to a cor
respondent as follows: Where apple
orchards are keptpermanently in grass,
as they should be, a top dressing of
lime, ofsay thirty bushels to an acre,
every five years, will prove very ben
efcial William Saunders, OF the
Agricultural Department Garden at
Washington, gives The formula, which,
he says has proved of the greatest
benefit /: Put half bushel oflime
and four pounds of powdered sulphur
in a tight barrel, Stacking the lime
with hot water, the mouth of the bar
rel being covered with cloth. This
is reduced to the ordinary consistency
OF ordinary whitewash, and at the
time OF application half an ounce of
carbolic ACID is added to each gallon
o. the liquid. MIR. Saunders further
says 81 generally apply it in the
spring before the leaves make their
appearance, but 1 am convinced that
it would be more effective if applied
later but then it is difficult to do so
when the tree is in foliage" 1t should
be applied not to the stem of the tree,
but to some extent to the main branch

THE NEW POSTAL LAW.

The law does not and will not, after
June 3Oth, require full prepayment Of
postage on all printed matter. Tran
sient or miscellaneous printed matter
must be fully prepaid at the mailing
office. Regularpublcations, known as
newspapers or periodicals., may be sent
to subscribers now and after the 3Oth
instant unpaid, and the postage col
lected quarterly of the subscribers.-
Newspaper exchanges may be prepaid
quarterly either at the Office Of mailing
or delivery.
The requirement for full prepay
ment on transient printed matter is
statutory, not departmental, and there
fore can not be abrogated by the
Postmaster General. 1t is made the
duty of all Postmasters to collect all
deficient postage at the Office of deliv
cry, whether upon letters or printed
matter, more OF. less such matter being
inadverenly transmitted in the mails.
1t is not shown that more is collected
at the Washington Office than is legally
due, or more than at other offices, IN
proportion to the quantity OF such mat
ter delivered. If any statement had
been made that no papers will be sent
without prepayment, then a mistake
has been made, for large numbers are
sent daily to subscribers as provided
by law.
One cent will fully prepay on any
daily or weekly published in this city,
bnt it will not carry two such papers,
nor viii it carry the larger New York
weekly or daily papers.
