REPORT OF THE STREET COMMIT

REPORT OF THE STREET COMMIT
TEE. -
The Committee on Streets, Alleys and
Grades were very elabOrate in their rec
Lamentations to Council, the other
night, upon certain matters relating to,
cleanine, curling, altering and the like,
but we would have been glad ii the re-
port had dealt little more specifically
with two subjects that have been at
tracing attention and deserve consider
alton by Council.
one Is the imperfect manner IN
which some Of the sewers are construct
ed, being wholly inadequate for the pur-
pose and the localities which they
serve. 1t is very expensive
sewer that is built with
more reference to its original cost than
to its capacity and adaptation to the To-
cality in which it is built. 1t costs
more in a short time to keep it open
than it did originally to construct 1t.
Yet this perpetual tinkering is a neces-
sitv in several localities. 1t seldom
rains without force OF hands being re-
quired to assist the in carrying OIL
the flow OF water, and then cleaning up
the streets which have been flooded.
Would il not be economy to construct
sewers large enough to perform their
Office without assistance? ...F
The other matter to which we refer is
that of street paving. The public is be-
ginning TO ask, are we always to have
the old cobble stone streetse Is there
nothing better, nothing cheaper, moth
ing more agreeable?
As long as the cobblestone pavement
already laid is good, there would be no
propriety in pulling it up to put anoth-
or down. 1t should be allowed to pay
for itself. But while there are parts OF
the streets being renewed more or less,
sometimes covering a square or two in
space. would it not be we'll to be substi-
tuting a better and more satisfactory
pavement for the antiquated cObble-
stOneP
For there is better, more agreeable
and we, doubt not, cheaper pavement
in the long run, and one that has
proved itself the most durable and &C
ceptable in use. We refer to what is
known as the Belgian Book. This re-
sembles the NICHOLSON pavement in
smothness and construction, the materi.
al being OF sawed blocks OF stone IN
stead of wood. 1t is the pavement OF
Broadway, New York, and has been ex-
tensiyely adopted in other cities OF the
country. Ii is neat looking and easily
kept clean. 1t is healthy because it alb
serbs nothing. 1t is smooth and there
fore less noisy and less destructive Of
vehicles and horses than the cobble-
stone. II would cost no more to lay it
than the latter, and while the blocks
would be more expensive in the start
than cobble-stones they would prob
ably cost less in the end, by reason OF
being more permanent. BY gradual
introduction OF this pavement we
would never feel the difference in the
cost, and it would add much to the APP
pearance OF the city and the comfort OF
getting about.

A GLIMPSE AT WASHING
TON.
His Visit to Valley Forge Near
the Close of His Service.

George Washington's last visit to
Valley Forge, when he was about TO re-
tire to private life at the end OF his sec
ond presidential term, was described by
an old farmer, once revolutionary
soldier, 10 his son who made record
of that description. The farmer was
ploughing in field near the old encamp-
ment ground, when he observed q man
of dignified appearance, dressed IN a
plain black suit and followed by color
cd servant, ride up and dismOunt near.
He approached and cordially took the
farmers hand, making inquiries about
certain families in the neighborhood,
about the surrounding farms, their pro-
ductions and the system of cultivation.
He put the answers in a notebook and
told the farmer he had been in the army
and at the camp, and as he expected to
leave the city in few months, with the
prospects OF never returning, he had
taken this journey to visit the place
which had been the scene OF so much
suffering and distress, and see how far
the inhabitants had recovered from its
effects. And, adding that his name was
George Washington, he declared that to
see the people happy and the farmers
prospecting, and to meet with his old
companions, now peaceably engaged in
the most useful OF all employments, az
forded him more satisfaction than all the
homage that could be paid to his per-
son and station.

About Painting.

Painting is so common with some per-
sons, particularly women, and the cause
OF it is so little understood by nOn-pro-
fessional people, that some knowledge
on the subject often proves valuable.
Faintness consists in temporary failure
of the activity of the heart, the blood
not being properly circulated in conse-
quence. Although it does not reach the
head, the sufferer loses all clearness OF
vison, and, ii not prevented, may fall,
the fall not unirequently restoring the
normal condition. There is no convul-
sion, and though he-mOre probably she
can hardly be called conscious, he is
not unconscious as to be incapable OF
arousal, as happens in epilepsy. There
are ali degrees of faintness, from merely
feeling faint and looking somewhat pale
to positive and complete swOoning. In
some cases one faint is no sooner cured
than another and another succeeds,
hour after hour, even day after day. 1t
is scarcely necessary to say that such
cases are seriouSand need prompt treat
ment. The causes are various. Some
persons are so easily affected that they
swoon il they cut their finger or see any
one bleed. Their defect is over-sensi-
tive nerves and weak muscular fiber.
The heart is essentially muscle, which
is feeble in some, strong in others fee
BILE generally in women and strong in
men. Whatever weakens the heart and
muscles commonly produces faintness,
close, foul air being an active cause.
Whatever greatly affects the nerves,
such as bad news or the sight OF the dis
agreeable or horrible, may produce a
swoOn; and loss OF blood is another and
a serious Indictment. Sound health,
naturally accompanied by firm nerves
and muscles, is the best preventive of
faintness. The majority of vigorous
men go through all kinds of severe and
painful experiences without fainting,
while delicate men and many women
swoon at trifes. American women, who
used to faint continually-in crowds, at
bad news, at scenes OF distress-now
faint comparatively seldom, and the fact
is ascribed to their REIMBURSEMENT, for
the most part, of the habit of lacing, to
their increased Xercise in the open air,
and their better physical conditions.
Not one American woman faints to-day
where, thirty years, ago, twenty-five
women tainted, and the diminution of
the disorder, always the result of direct
causes, is an unmistakable evidence,
which other things corroborate, of the
marked aneloration Of the health of the
highly-organized, eXtremely-sensitive
but flexible and enduring, women OF
our complex race.

Campmeetings are rife and the
alder crop is good. The colored
folks commenced campmeeting
in the Fair Grounds here last Saturday,
and it is still in progress, Your CORE
spondent visited the grounds Sunday
night. When arrived prayer meeting
was in, progress, lead by sleek looking
brother with immense steerage capacity
for yellow legged chickens. The prayer
meeting was attended by few staid
brothers and sisters, but the young and
rising generation seemed to prefer prom
enading the grounds to taking part in
the supplicatiOn. When preaching time
arrived a large congregation made up CT
white and cOlored persons assembled i'll
the "erandstand" to hear the sermon
which was delivered by saffron colored
divine from Ohio, who told US how We
would appear in the paradise OF the
blest when we put off this garment OF
clay. The singing was excellent.
In fact when the whole col
ored congregation threw itself
away on sect out OF the Wilderness"
we felt like getting right up in meeting
and yelling Ego it, boots" The meet
ing will last until next Sunday A fe-
male evangelist and several eminent
divines are expected, and if you hear a
sound floating over your city like unto
the mingling together OF many voices
about Saturday night you may conclude
it is from Clarksburg. i
