BUTLER and The BOARD or HE4LTH.

Boston, Mass, May 1.-The Governor has
written letter TO the State Board of Health In
which he says he proposes to furnish money to carry On
the Almshouse until the Legislature can make appro-
praons for Its support but he will neither furnish IL
nor permit 1t to be furnished If it is to be expended by
the present superintendent He calls the attention OF
the Board to the fact that It can appoint officers
without his consent and he has not consented TO tha
appointment OF the present officers he does not propose
to allow airy bills contracted by them
Late yesterday afternoon Governor Butler sent COM
muncaton to the Legislature relating to the expenditures
for the support OF the Tewksbury Amshouse which, ho
claims are excessive considerably over 100000 having
been used during the last fiscal year. He that
under wise administration $4,000 would have been
ample for the expenses OF the State Amshouse for tho
present fiscal year and adds strongly Of that
opinion that II the Legislature will make such appropra-
ton and put It's expenditure and within the control
OF the Executive, and the auditing OF bills with tho
Council, will not shrink from undertaking the Iabors
imposed by such duty"
