that, according 10 the 81. Thomas Herald
of the 30th ulr., the Police Authorities in
St. Thomas were very active in inspecting
yards, seeing that they were kept in good
order and especially that all dele.erious
rubbish was removed. We may ask wheth.
er there are not yards in Christiansted
and FrederikSted which require inspection
and enforced reformation If, according to
DR.. Koch, the wetting of the streets en-

His Excel ncy the Governor and tie
Government Secretary were present.
Mr.. +. Coulter had written The Chairman
that he would be absent from the Island
more than 4 months and therefore begged
TO resign his seat Resignation accepted
and the seal dec AIRED vacant.
The next item ON the Order Of the Day
WAS " Discussion On Governments letter
Of 17;h July 1884, concerning the discIn.
tInuing OF road No. $ in Company Quarter
as IA public road" The road in question
is That which leads up 10 BuloW'S Minde
from the main road. Some members
thought that the owner of the property
to which the road leads should have been

and therefore advocated HE appointment
OF a Commil tee of 3 members 10 investigate
the matter. After some discussion the
proposal for Il Committee WAS rejected.
The matter is to come forward later for 2nd
discussion. During the discussion it WIS
mentioned that BuloW'S Minde was IMiIt
by ii TO mcr Governor as his Ie>idrnce.
While he resided there. there WAS of

Scientific Prizes for 1854,

IL Is n gratifying fact that more astrono.
mical discoveries, and those OF more i'm
portnncs, have been made by Americans
during the past few years, than by all of
the rest OF the world combined. That this
has been due, largely, to the impetus given
by competition for the honors and prizes
awarded to discoverers cannot be denied
and in order that this interest may be con-
tinued and sust.ined, offer The following
prizes for 1884:
Two hundred dollars for each and ey-
cry discovery OF new comet made during
the year, subject to the following condi.
tiOna:
/. II must be discovered in the United
States or Canada, either by the naked eye
or telescope, and II must be unexpected.
2. The discoverer must telegraph i'm
msdiately TO DR.. Lewis Swift, Director OF
the Warner Observatory, Rochester, N. Y,
giving the exact time Of discovery, the DO
sltion and direction of motion, with snfic--
lent exactness, II possible, to enable at
least one other observer to find it,
3. This intelligence must not be COM
mmnicaied to any other party or parties,
either by letter, telegraph, or Otherwise,
until such time as telegraphic acknowl-
edgment has been received by the discov-
erer from DR.. Swift Great care should be
observed regarding this condition, as 1t is
essential 10 the proper Transmission OF the
discovery, together with tae name OF the
discoverer, TO the various parts Of the
world, which viii be Immediately done by
DR.. Swift,
Three disinterested astronomers will be
selected TO decide all disputed questions.
