avoid bad air, bad water, improper
and half decayed food and poorly
cooked food, as we are to care for a
little harmless dust or an innocent
cobweb, we might have improved

as much interested in good and in

the feet, the stomach, the eyes, and
the health in general, as they do of
the gew.gaws and jewelry, We
might soon see more who would be
better prepared for the cares of tho
family. If we would heed the laws
Of God, including the laws of the
body as well as those Of the soul, as
we do the absurd and tyrannical
demands of fashion, We would have
fewer cases of nervous prostration,

THE WATER COMMISSION.
The Meeting Last Eventng-The
Cuy's Water Rent.

A meeting of the Water Commission
was held last evening in their room in
the Water Department building. AL
the members were present, and Mr..
Paynter presided. The Finance Com
mittre of City Council was to have met
with the Board, and no business was
transacted until .3OO'clock, when find
ing that they did not put in an appear
ance, the meeting organized and the
City Solicitor read his opinion defining
the duties and powers of the Commits
sion. 1t is an exceedingly lengthy
document, and he was instructed to pre-
sent copy to Council, to be read at the
meeting this evening.
A discussion ensucd in reference to
the means whereby sufficient amount
of money should be raised for the pur
pose of conducting the Water Depart
ment until the first Of January, and it
was conceded that the strictest econo-
nv would have TO be practiced. The
City Solicitor called attention to section
10 of the act creating the Water Com
mission, which gives the Water Com
missioners the right to charge the city
with all water furnished each fire hy
drant at the rate of $40 per annum, or
the city shall in lieu thereof pay to the
Water Commissioners sum of money
as may be agreed upon by City Council
and the Board, provided that in no case
shall the city pay less than 1000 per
annum.
In the opinion of the Solicitor, the
city now occupies the same position as
any other water consumer, and was
obliged to pay for the use of the water
in the fire hydrants from the eighteenth
of April, the time when the Commission
was created, until the first of January,
at a rate not lower than 100000 per
annum.
The members concurred in this view,
and at the suggestion Of Mr.. Rodney
the Solicitor was instructed to draw up
resolution, requesting City Council to
include in their estimates for the ensu-
ing year the sum of Sl4, 1868, being
the amount of rent due from the city
for the balance of this year. Hereafter
the city will he called upon to pay the
$50, 900 in January, the same as any
other water consumer
The resolution was adopted, and the
Secretary directed to forward copy TO
Council. After discussing a number of
matters, the Commission adjourned
until next Monday evening, unless
called together before that time 10y the
