THE City Council should adopt some prompt measure for a proper drainage of the city in times of heavy raiufalls. The damage done during the recent floods was very great to parties whose property was in tEe path of tle concentrated waters from the whole city, and a recur- renee of such disaster would occasion grounds for censure against the author ities. The Council has ordered a survey to be made, with estimates Of cost, etc, and pending final action upon the plan another storm may come as disastrous as that of a fortnight ago. The topog- raphy of the city permits of natural drainage, and were means devised to prevent a concentration of the water, DO damage could possibly ensue.

Imnortant Neeting To-night

The interest that has been developed
in the community by the recent agita-
tation of matters relating to public sani-
tation, augurs Enthusiastically that our
people are becoming fully aroused to the
Importance of an active cooperation of
all classes in measures tending to perfect
the system of drainage, sewerage and
hygiene generally.
The encouragement extended the
movement for the formation of an Aux
iliary Sanitary Association has resulted
in achieving practical results. The com
mittee appointed at the preliminary
meeting held on the 14lh instant to pre-.
pare a plan of organization, have well
sustained their reputation as sagacious,
practical business men, thoroughly earn
est in their selfimposed labor for
the public veal, by the preparation
of n series of by laws for the government
Of the organization. and an intelligent
resume of the objects to be accomplish
ed-which were published in our issue
Of Yesterday, and very generally read.
This evening, as will be seen by an
nouncement in our local columns. an
adjourned meeting of the preliminary
organic alton will be held in the Council
Chamber, Exchange building, when the
report of this committee will be pre-
sented for consideration and action, and
a permanent association will be effected.
In matter of such vital importance
as the public health of our city. it would
seem superfuous for us to urge upon
every taxpayer, every head of family.
and every good citizen interested in the
present aud future welfare of the com
munity of which he is a member to lend
his cheerful aid to secure the success of
tire aims and ends of this proposed
Auxiliary Association. Everyone IS in
terested, and should feel it duty to
take an active part in work which
though designed for the public good,
can but prove beneficial in its results tn
himself and his family.
We regard the meeting tonight as
important, and the formation of this as
sociation as marking an era in the history
of this city which will be productive of
the graudest results and the greatest
blessings to our people.
Therefore, it is to be hoped that there
will be large attendance at this meet
ing. and cordial invitation is extended
all who can for the moment cast aside
the inclinations and impulses of personal
ease, and are willing to devote short
while to matters of general good, TO be
present and to participate in the proceed
/ ings.

Election Contests in the House.
washington Special to Baltimore sun.

TQSNtItllJH
1t is understood that the first case to
be considered by the House Committee
on Elections will be the case of Lynch
vs.. Chalmers, from the Sixth Mississippi
district This district is what is called
the shoestring district of Mississippi, a
long, narrow strip of land extending
from one end of the State to the other,
and including within its borders the bulk
of the colored voters of the State. The
colored voters exceed the white voters
by thousands, and the natural presump-
ton is that they all voted the Republi-
can ticket. Lynch, the contestant, is a
colored man who has already served sew
eral terms in the House, and is a man of
natural force and ability. He is pressing
his own case with much persistence and
there is no doubt that the Elections Com
mittee will report in his favor, and that
the House will accept the report.
He will most probably be in his seat
before the end of January. The next
case on the docket of the committee is
that of Laws, the Alabama Greenbacker,
VS.. Wheeler, of the Eighth district of
that State. Mr.. Jones, the Texas Green.
hacker, who has been made by Speaker
Keifer a prominent member of the Com
mittee on Elections, is a warm personal
friend of Mr.. Laws, and on the day that
the House met made the most strenuous
efforts to prevent the swearing in of
General Wheeler 1t is through his in
fuence that this has been made the sec.
ond case ON the docket, and, as his vote
is of some importance to the Republi-
cans, it is not unreasonable to expect
that General Wheeler may speedily fol-
low General Chalmers into obscurity.
Two of the South Carolina contested
cases will next be taken up and reports
made against the sitting Democratic
members, which the House will adopt as
soon as possible. So that it is quite
probable the straight.out Republican
majority, which is now but one, and this
in consequence of Hyatt Smith, of
Brooklyn, going into the Republican
caucus, will be increased to six or eight
within thirty days after the reassembling
of Congress.

Gnitean,s case is stated in a nutshell

Guiteau's case is stated in a nutshell
by a New York gentleman, who, in the
Tribune, commenting on the ''inspira-
ton" plea, says: "Let us hear what a
writer, ACKNOWLEDGED by the whole Chris
tian church to be inspired, has to say on
this point: Let no man say when he is
tempted, am tempted of God, for God
cannot be tempted with evil, neither
tempteth He any man. But every man
is tempted when he is drawn away by
his own lust and enticed. Then when
lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth
sin; and sin, when it is finished, bringeth
forth death. st. james, l., 10, IA, Is. !"

The Washington friends of the noto-

persistent in asserting that he is the

dinarily such an assertion would be in

has for years been one of Blaine's strl-

able to the stalwarts, yet he hGs, at the
