The MIL Pend Nuisance.

1t will be recollected that in May last the
Board of Mayor and Aldermen, acting as a
board of health, passed certain orders and de.
crees relating to the removal of certain dams
| gates and other structures maintained at the
outlet of the mill pond at behring's bridge, and
thereby preventing the flow or reaow of the
tide and creating public nuisance.
Certain controversies having arisen between
Mr.. Tracey, the owner of the mill and the city,
the entire matter was referred to Judge Peters,
| and hearing was had yesterday.
Mr.. KnowltoD, in behalf of Mr.. Tracey,
claimed thatthe alleged nuisance was caused
by the acts of the city 10 discharging their sew
ers into the mill pond and the city had no au-
thority to control or remove the gates and dam
without making compensation therefor; that
the acts of the city rendered the property of
Mr.. Tracey worthless.
On the contrary City Solicitor Cleaves con-
tended that the board of health was clothed
with full power to adopt measures beneficial to
public health; that the Older OF the board was
health regulation, rendered necessary by the
distractions maintained by Mr.. Tracey; that he
had no right to maintain such structures to Gre
ate public nuisance, and the finding of the
board of health upon that fact was fioal.
The evidence is closed and the final arsu-
ments will be made this morning. The referee
and counsel will visit the premises today

The New Orleans correspondent of the Gin

says that "Mr. Reed of Maine, the Republican
member of the committee, is unquestionably

and proves it moreover in his cross-exa nina
tions. He is withal anxious enough to look af-
ter Republican interests. The fact rema ms
that no preparations have been made on thu
Republican side. Mr.. Reed seeks diligently

The elections in the North
and West have been almost uni,
versaliy in favor of the RrpaJii-
can party.
In New York ii larsr minority
OF the Democracy united with the
Republicans in order to over
throw the Tammany Ring, which
make the Republican majority ap
pear to be greater than it really
is. In Massachusetts the Demo
Gratis voted the Radical ticket to
beat Ben Eut!er and succeeded
admirably.
The reelection of Senator Conk
ling IN New York is aSSnled, and
the Republicans viii likely elect
Senator III COnHecticut to sue
coed Senator Batnnm.
The Democrats will have hand

feelings OF malice toward the peO
pie OF the North, when | witness

nat and standing uncovered in

fatal field The South surrendered
her sword. Within the shadow OF
