any authority to arrest her or
any other person and keep them at this

Mr.. Williams was asked to take the
chair at a called meeting of the Board
Of Aldermen held yesterday evening
at o'clock.
He requested the Clerk to read the
call, which stated the object Of the

introduction Of electric light in this
city.
The roll was called, and only eleven
members were found present.
A motion was made to adjourn,

The Chair ruled that it required
two-thirds vote to act upon this matter,
and such a quorum not being present.

and the Board adjourned.

care of the Mayor of Philadelphia
Hon. j. Y. GmIlotte, Mayor of Nec

We beg to present yourself and your
escort our official and personal compli-
ments, and to express our deep regrets
that We failed on yesterday to pay you
our respects and TO extend you that full
official courtesy which it would have af-
forded us so much pleasure to do. We
did not know that you proposed to
stop here, or we would have met you :;
nor did we know Of your remaining
until too late in the day to perform our
duty. Our Mayor and President Of the
Board of Aldermen were both sick,
and thus eXcusable from their failure to
arrange matters for their associate and
subordinate officers, while our whole
city official list were in deep grief at
the death Of our City Clerk, and occupied
in the evening in arranging for and at
tending his funeral.
We beg Of you and the members Of
the various departments who accompany
you that you will do us the honor to
spend day or more with MS on your
return, and allow us the pleasure to
extend you such courtesies as we can,
and to do ourselves the justice to show
that the seeming neglect of yesterday is
neither in accordance with our custom
or our inclination.

The Proposition 10 Filter the water
Richmond Drinks.

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
The writer has not been as much de-
lighted for many a day as he was when
he saw the proposition made to the
Council by the Newark Filtering Com
pany to cleanse the vile liquid our peo-
pie are compelled to drink. 1t was the
expectation of everybody that we were
to drink the water from James river,
pumped up by the pump-wOrks, the
water in the canal at the works to fur
nish the motiye-power only. AS it is,
we drink the filth Of Tuckahoc creek
and the drainage of three granite-works
on the line of the canal running to the
pump-works; and yet insist upon lay
ing on the shoulders Of an inScrutable
Providence the malarial and other
feyers that so much afilict Richmond.
The writer rode along this canal to
the pump-wOrks yesterday, and asked
himself why we were not all in hos
ptal. Let all the citizens go and see
for themselves what they are drinking.
The sight of that canal will bring them
to their senses.

The Puryear Murder.

DR.. Thompson, coroner Of Dinwid-
die county, yesterday came to this
city, bringing with him the stomach Of
Mrs. Puryear, who, it is alleged, was
poisoned by her husband on Saturday
last. He desired to place the stomach
with DR.. w. II. Taylor, State Chemist.
for analysis of the contents. but mas
much as the State law makes no pro-
vision for the payment of DR.. Taylor,
and DIR. Thompson was not authorized
by his county authorities to make any
on their account, the latter had to re-
turn home to consult with the county
judge, Commonwealth's attorney, &c.
To keep the chain Of evidence uninter-
rupted, DR.. Thompson retained the
stomach in his custody.
