DlEHTHRREA DlsFRlcTs.-This afternoon
the Council Committee on Health will, IN
company with the Health Officer and ssV:
eral prominent physicians, make a tour Of
the diphtheria districts in the Fourth
ward, for thepurpose OF ascertaining the
causes Of the disease, and comforting with
the gentlemen accompanying them as to
the best means Of remedy. The physi-
clans who have been most earnest and &C.
tive in their efforts to do something that
will in a great measure remove the causes
OF this epidemic are among the first in the
profession In this city, men who practice
in thRt district, and are fully cognizant OF
the status OF affairs, and also the causes
leading to the deploraile existing condt-
ton. The movement OF to-day under the
circumstances is q wise one and will, no
doubt, bring about what ISIS imperatiyely
necessary in the matter and what Is in the
Councils power to do, VIII establish Of
once o proper system OF drainage, by
means Of adequate sewers aud plenty OF
them; compel each and every house
holder to tap these; rigfdly EN-
force the garbage ordinance and TO
provide for the keeping OF surface
cutters free from grass, filth and other
obstacles that prevent the free passage Of
water to the creek. These defects, and
they abound, will be shown to the com.
mittee, as well as many other causes OF
disease, and also the proper remedies
demonstrated. The different members Of
the Health Committee arc sufficiently i'm.
pressed with the idea that immediate and
vigorous action Is necessary In the matter,
and with the whole subject placed before
them so intelligently we doubt not that
some beneficial results will follow this
day's inspection.

ElonrI WARD PooLs.-scarlet fever
has broken out in the Eighth ward, and
an isolated case or two Of diphtheria re.
ported from the same district. The de.
plorable condition of the streets and al.
Ieys, and the inadequate sewerage OF the
Fourth ward, have been sufficiently com.
mented upon, yet the number Of stagnant
pools OF water Of largesize allowed to re.
main in different parts Of the Eighth
ward seem to be hardly noticed. These In
themselves are prolific source OF disease
and death, and immediate measures
should be taken to drain them. We have
called attention to their presence several
times, and as reform in our sanitary af.
fairs is now started, let these also be at.
tended to. 1t would be a good idea for
the Doctors and the Health Committeeto
drive over and inspect this district also to.

FHmperInE with the Mails In the South.
WASHINGTON, September 4.-Serious
complaint has been made to the postal
authorities here to the effect that the mails
in Mississippi aud Louisiana were becom.
ing unsafe for letters coming to negroes
and prominent Republicans there from
the North. Almost every letter received
here by the Southern Emigrant Aid Socie.
ty from negroes inquiring Tor information
IN regard to the best localities in he
North and Northwest to settle in contains
a request that great care be taken with
the address and in sealing the letter in re.
ply, as numerous instances are reported
where mails have been lately tempered
with.
Ten days since, Dixon, the brother of
the murdered Independent, wrote to va
zoo for certain papers, and has not vet re.
celved any reply to his letter, which leads
him to believe that, there is foul play in
the mails. Postmaster General Kew has
ordered q special agent Ia work the case
up, and il any oficlalsare caught winkins
at any interference with letters, they viii
be promptly removed. Last winter the
postotice OF a certain town in Alabama
was closed for six months and all postal
communication with 1t suspended, because
the inhabitants saw ct to bulldoze the
postmaster Tor being q Republican.
