SLAUGHTER HOUSES.

Mr.. EDIToR-We noticed last week in
the "People's Column an article on
''AilanChus Trees VS.. Hogpens" We
quote from it: "Whie they allow hog
pens and other nuisances to be kept to
the discomfort of their nei ighbors and the
cause of much Sickness This We as
sert is only too true; but it is that which
comes under the head of 'other nui-
sances'' of which We have to speak, viz:
Slaughter houses, which, as soon as the
weather begins to get warm, emit an
odor continuously, day and night, which
is not only exceedingly disagreeable and
obnoxious but deadly in its effects, and
it is wonder that the people living in
the vicinity of them are not stricken like
the city of Plymouth with the fatal ty-
phoid fever; and if allowed to remain in
their impurity, we fear serious conse-
quences. and would most respcc ctfully say
to the Board of Town Commissioners
let the ailanthus trees stand until the
slaughter houses and hog pens have been
removed. A SUFFERER
The Cecil Whig., 1885-06-06

Mr.. EDIToR-Thanking you for what
ever corrections you may have made tt
the hasty- written article while excited
over specific and pointed act of gross
injustice, yet | was not so alarmed by
that august body known as Clown Com
missioners" as to have used the WORD
Mason" for Manor" and therefore
suppose it was a typographical error.
In the decision rendered by the Court
withdrawing the injunction, we find the
following language:
Now it is certainly true that the own.
ers or occupiers of dwelling houses
whether III the city or country, have the
right to enjoy pure and wholesome air
that is, as pure and wholesome as theil
local situation can reasonably supply
and any act which materially corrupts OF
pollutes the air, done without authority
or justification. is strictly nuisance
There is no distinction between any OF
the cases, whether it be smoke, smell
vapors or gas. The owner of one tene
ment cannot cause or permit to pass ogel
Or flow into his nei2E boris tenement any
one or more of those things in such {
way as materially to interfere with the
ordinary comfort of the occupiers of the
neighboring tenement.
So far so good: but what has beer
done about the complaint made against
the hog pen nuisance ? "what is sauce
for the goose ought to be sauce for the
gander." Yet two of these nuisances
complained of are in full blast; one with
in SO feet and another within 100 feet Of
where the offensive tree stood, throwing
out more offensive and injurious odors
than dozen ailanthus trees could posi-
bly, produce; and the neighbors have fire
quently to close their windows and doors
when at their meals, and are also de-
prived of the use of their porches, otc
Yet there is no redress for, them; for, &C
cording to the local press, 'the towl
election was won by the hog pens.''
Justice is represented as being blind
folded. Has the bandage been removed
SO that such partial decisions may be
made? God forbid! The first chapter
of Genesis, Goth and 3lst verses, reads as
follows:
"And God said behold, have giver
you every hero bearing fruit which is
upon the face of all the earth, and every
tree;
And God saw every thing He had made,
and behold ii tcas cery gOOd.'
Yet THIS particular and unfortunate
tree has been designated by your con.
temporary as ''an interHal tree"

A Washington telegram says that the
Republican Senators have decided to
oppose the confirmation of all the
presidents nominations where they
are to succeed Republicans who have
been removed from Office. If the re.
movals have been made on charges, the
president will be called upon to furnish
specifications so that the suspended
officials may be given an opportunity
to answer them. If, in the opinion of
the senator's, the charges are untrue OF
unjust, they will resist the confirmation
OF his successor. When the superseded
official is an ex-soldier and is qualified,
the Republicans will resist the confir.
nation of his successor. Where an
appointment is made to vacancy no
opposition will be made. This action
of the Republican Senator'S cannot but
meet with the approval of all fair
thinking men.

The supreme court has decided to
grant a rehearing in the celebrated
case of Chauncy vs.. Wass. involving
the validity of tax title obtained
through the neglect of the county Off
Gals to enter up the payment of taxes.
The court decided that even if a man
had paid his taxes and could produce
a receipt, if his land had been errone.
ously reported as delinquent and sold,
the tax title thus obtained is valid.
Should this ruling stand there would
be no end to litigations and no man
would be safe in his taxable posses
sions. Judge Berry alone dissented
in the decision, but there was such a
howl of indignation raised all over the
State that some of the other members
OF the court may already have become
convinced that the decision was errone-
GUS. At all events, the case for the
taxpayers against the tax-Litle sharks
will be presented by the ablest counsel
in the State. and the people have reason
to look for favorable results from re.
hearing Of the case in question.

The will of VIM. II. Vanderbilt be-
queaths $4,000, 900 to each of his
eight children. Nearly $1,000 is
given to charitable institutions and the
remainder of the fortune is divided
equally between Cornelius and VIM.
Z. Vanderbilt. This gives to each of
the two property to the value probably
of $50. 600, 600, which sum is doubtless
equal to the holdings Of any living In
dividual in the country. A provision
in the will directs that the railroad
stocks shall be held in bulk, and not
disposed of without the consent OF
every person concerned. which shows
disposition to perpetuate the family s
supremacy in the business world.
