THE HEALTH BOARD,

The Board of Health held a specjal
meeting, last evening, President Roberts
IN the chair, for the purpose of hearing
Ine report of :the Executive Officer ofthe
western District in regard to the nuisan.
; c9s on tne Brandywine, the fourteen days
allowed by the Board in which to abate
the nuisances having expired.
VIM. Hickey, the Executive Officer,
made his statement. He said thai
at Rosendale Park and an adjoining
dwellinghouse the ,nuisances had not beer
| abated
AT tne City Passenger Railway stables,
the aoJacent slaughter houses, and Hart.
man & Fehrenbach's brewery, no at
Tempt had been made to abare the exist.
ing nuisances. Mr.. Hartmann was will.
ing to abate any Nuisance on the brewery
premises, but denied that any existed
there except a pile OF manure in the
stable yard, which would be removed.
| AT Brancroft's and DuPont's most of
the cesspools had been set back from the
| creek, while such wells as could not be
removed had been securely cemented
AT Riddles mills nothing had been done
towards abating the existing nuisances
all the available workmen having been
employed in repairing the broken dam
Mr.. Hickey, however, thought that this
nuisance would be abated as soon as the
dam repairs were finished.
DR.. Shortlidge moved that those who
had not abated the nuisances be allowed
ten days more in which to do so.-
Adopted.
A petition was read from James CALI
CHER, complaining of nuisance caused
by pig pens on the east side of Adams
street, between Second and Third, and
asking for relief. Referred to the Tenth
Ward Committee.

SITTING BULL.
His Conference with the American
and CauadIan Commission. +.
HE REJEcrs ALL ovERrUREs,

D Ah@J hSAS ALL ONEhTUHES,
At the recent interview between Sit
ting Bull and the members of the Amer
lean and Canadian commission, at Fort
Walsh. Canada, the famous Indian chief
not only rejected all the Governments
overtures, but treated the Commission
with contempt. During the delivery of
Gen. Ferry's address the Indians all
smoked their pipes vigorously, and their
faces were as impenetrable as granite.
There were two exceptions. Once a
smile Of more than ordinary significance
eurled the lips of Sitting Bull, and once
the right eye of Spotted Eagle actually
winked derision toward Colonel Mcleod.
Sitting Bull made lenthy response to
Gen. Ferry, in the course Of which he
said: "N" ~
.'He had no confidence in the Presi-
dent or in any of the subordinate Ameri-
can officials, who were wont to resort to
traps Indians would scorn to employ, and
whose word of honor was often given
merely to deceive and betray. He hated
the Americans because their kG-aoee-n,ee-
on scdhidtG general principle or spirit)
was bad /; because they made treaties but
to break them; because their Government
0iAON ulouOuVob OllClhiS W 6Wluul6 anU
maltreat his people, and because their
intention was to kill off the Indian by
inhuman wars, starvation, and pillage.
His hateed of them no soft words OF
pretty promises could remove; nay-and
here he dropped Sioux and spoke fierce
ly in excellent North west French-he
would curse them while he lived, and
hoped himself to be cursed If he died
without striking back.
When the speeches were over Gen. Terry
asked the following questions:
'Shall we say to the President that YOU
refuse the offers he has made to you?''
"Are we to understand from what YOU
have said that you refuse those offers?'
long pause followed. All the redskins
present, including Sitting Bull himself, felt
the occasion was important. They cast in.
quiring glances toward Colonel Mcleod
and Major Walsh, who gave them no To-
ponsive sign.
SITTING BULLS uLTINATUM.
Sitting Bull again stood up and said:-
"T could tell you more, but that is all
that [ have to tell you. II we told you
more, why you would have paid no atten
ton. That is all have 10 say. This par,
OF the country does not belong TO your bee
pie. You belong on the other side. Thi.
side belongs 10 W."
During this decisive harangue the chow, >
''how" OF the assembled redskins becam,
more and more confident and emphatic.

NEW CASTLE, Oct. %, 1877,
AT the mayors court case of assault
and battery was given rather lengthy
hearing IN order that his Honor might
arrive at its "true inwardness." Both
sides [women] with their adherents, uu-
dertook to talk at the same time, result
ing in rather mixed story. "No cause
for action" said the mayor, with smile,
as he adjourned the municipal court.
County constable, John Atkinson
brought to this city one John Deitt, late
ly in the employ of Fl. Hill, of Newark,
accused of stealing a quantity of cloth
from the Woollen mill of Dean & Co. He
was committed to the care of the Sheriff
until Court meets.
This morning number of excursion
lists from Jersey and Delaware City ar
rived by the "Major Reybold" and took
the train for Washington, d. G. They
were Joined by number from this city
and surrounding country. The fare was
$3.50 for the round trip. They will re-
turn at 8 p. m. tomorrow evening.
Dobbinsville is fast filling up. There
are now residing there forty-fve families,
and every day more are arriving. To
morrow gentleman from Wilmington
will open store devoted to general mer-
chandising. With the increased activity
at the Delaware Iron Works it will no
doubt be good venture.
At the last meeting Of the Board of
Education, the matter of providing more
accommodations and an increase OF
teachers was given into the hands of q
committee. The public are awaiting
with great interest the results. That the
President of the Board, DR.. Maxwell, has
for the last two years been doing his ut
most to accomplish this end is well
known, and now that the end was sup
posed to be near at hand, an increased
interest had been taken which is fast set
tling down to murmurs long, loud, angry,
and it must be admitted, for cause, for to
pay tax for schools without having the
advantage of them is one of those things
to which no fellow can become accus-
toned.
The Water Company have extended
their mains out Clayton street to Tenth
and along the latter street to the rail-
road.
Adelphia Lodge, No. 8, K. of P, meets

MILL CREEK HUNDRED NEGRO OUT
| = RACES A YOUNG wHITE GIRL.
This morning Harriet Isabella Foreacre
daughter of VIM. Foreacre, of Mermaid,
Mill Greek Hundred, appeared before
Esquire Frazer, and swore out warrant
for the arrest of VIM. Scott, COL, on a
charge of outraging her person. Miss
Foreacre's testimony was in substance as
follows:
Last evening her father and brother
the two children. Black, who lived near
to the house occasionally, was in the
house at the time and left with the 9TH
| ers.
About s o'clock, however, he returned,
and entering the house asked her to give
him kiss, at the same time offering her
| fifteen cents, which she refused. He then
| said, "Tll give you two dollars and halt
II you don't say anything about this"
but she started for the door without max
ing any response. rell....i
Scott instantly seized her and clapped
his hand over her mouth, cutting her Inns
severely, at the same time threatening to
kill her If she made any noise or told her
father. He then threw her down upon the
floor and outraged her person, after
which he fed rapidly from the premises.
Miss Foreacre Is q little over IA years
old, but is unusually largo for age. She is
intelligent looking aud of pleasing appear>
ance.
Scott, her assailant, is about 40 years of
age, and is married, having q wife and two
children.
| When Mr. F0reacre returned home and
learned of the outrage, he at once institu-
ted a vigorous search for the villain, but
without effect. Had he found him the
county would have been spared the expense
of his trial.
| Warrants have been sent to Constables,
Crossan and Dunlap, of Christiana and
Mill Creek Hundreds, who will do their
utmost to capture the black wretch.

worked so vigorously at cutting wood,
that she pounded the ceiling plaster from
the room below and created such dirt,
that Sarah's family couldn't eat Their

threatened to split Sarah's head with the

Esquire Frazer, when Araminta was re-
quired to pay the costs of the case.

Messrs. Belts and Palmer were ap-
pointed tellers, and upon counting the

seven. Mr.. Woolley was therefore de-
clared elected.
Mr.. Baird desired to know what had

Committee were instructed to have the
taxes collected.
Mr.. Woolley, the newly-elected mem-
ber coming into the room Mr.. Eckel
moved that he be sworn in.
Mr.. johnson objected. saying that he
would like to hear the law on the quail
fications of a member of the Board, read
before Mr.. Woolley was sworn in.
Mr.. Eckel then read the law, and on
his motion Mr.. Woolly was invited up to
the Presidents desk and questioned as
to his qualifications, which, being salts
factorily answered, he was qualified and
too his seat.
On motion the Finance Committee
were introduced, to inquire of the State
Auditor as to the amount OF money due
the Board from the State.
On motion the Board adjourned.
After the adjournment one of the MEM
