The Board of Health.

The report is not correct. And ii
now gives us pleasure to announce,
that the Board of Health is neither
lost nor stolen indeed, we are credibly
informed that it is perfectly innocent
of any disposition to stray. 1t will be
remembered that, in spite of dissent
ing squeaks and grunts of pigs and
porkers, the Board decided thatpig pens
must go by the board: did they not
90? And it is hardly to be expected
that the Board will show very great
activity in any other direction. imme-
diately after diSposing of this odorous
subject. No, gentlemen, it must rest
during the reactionary period-it must,
in quiet and seclusion, recover some OF
the vital energy expended in abolish
ne pig pens. Be patient-do not find
fault, but think of the sad fate ofthose
towns in which pestilence walks abroad,
and malaria stalks with an erect front,
and pig pens are an abomination-be-
cause, alas, there are no Boards. Re-
spect and even cherish this venerable lis
stitution. Even now its manly shirt
bosom is tumultuously rising and fall
ing above humane promptings too vio-
lent to be kept down. 1t is preparing
to act; hold your nos-hold your
breath, and wait. The Board is float
ing on the top of serene conscious
ness, that there are privies, without a
privy system, in town. We believe
that the board has discovered this !;
al !aving discovered it, can you doubt
that the Board will act promptly? We
shall see.
