the report of a gun or pistol wmcu ap
peared to proceed from a house nearby
ia which Grady and his wife resided.
Upon making enquiry ct some ot tne
neighbors the policeman was told that
thctwo, viz, Grady and wife had been
quarrelling all the morning and that it
was a matter of vtry frequent occurrence.
The policeman felt justified upen this evi
dence in entering the house which he did
of nccwhen he found Grady standing
nninthe room ' with the blood flowing
freclv from a severe wound which be nad
rccciVed in his wrist. The woman, hisJ
wife was stooping down cnaeavormg au
wash the blood stains from the floor. One
double-barreled gun was found with one
of the barrels discharged.
The parties were arrested and taken to

robber: "Gentlemen, 1 1 could kill you

it; 3'oU may come in." ; So the party
entered, and one of them ! laid his
hand oh Mr. Robber, who cooly
told him not to touch! him, and, that he
would go along with them. ; His re
quest was acceded to and he was marched
off to the guard house between the two
policemen. It afterwards transpired that
the fellow made no idle boast when he
said he could kill every one of them, for
upon his person was found a seven-shooter
loaded and capped and ready for action.
He also had in his possession aoine tink

He "also had in his Jpockets $2.15 in

For the Jleview.
A Defence of the Board of Aldermen
in the Position They Have As
sumed Towards Vessels Coming
from the Yellow Fever Zone.
It is not to be expected that any act of
prohibitory legislation, however essential
to tho public welfare it may be deemed
by those, competent to judge, shall escape
coming into contact with some private
interest, and a fortiori it is to be expected
that it must encounter a certain amount
of noisy opposition from those whose in
terests are affected, and' from others hav
inc even less worthy motives.
The scope of duties devolvius upon the
municpal authority may strictly be ex
pressed under three heads : the conduct of
the financial relations, the control of the
police department and the maintenance of
sanitary measures.
Which of these is of paramount im
portance it is difficult to say, though it
would seem, from the very much greater
attention which has hitherto been bestowed
upon the two first, that the public health
has been held subordinate to its other
concerns. We may hope, however, that
all this has been changed now, for wc sec
the present Board of Aldermen, almost
immediately after their induction into
office, seeking the advice of persons bkillcd
in sanitary science, and firmly expressing
their determination to order that to be
done which they are advised is necessary
to preserve the commdnity under their
charge from invasion by destructive epi
demics. They. have ordered that all ves
sels shall be prohibited coniing into this
port from the yellow fever zone of the
West Indies and South America from the
15th day of June until the 15th day of
October. The Board of Health have ad
vised them that for the present this regu
lation is the only absolute safeguard, that
we can have against yellow Jcvcr.
The opponents of and cavillers at the
regulation offer several reasons why it is
unnecessary, some perhaps specious
enough, but allo them untenable, -and
some of them absurd. Let us sec what
they arc : First, it imposes unnecessary
hardships upon ship owners and con
signees ; second, it damages the commerce
of the port ; third, it does not discriminate
between healthy and unhealthy ports ;
fourth, no such prohibitory regulation is
established in New York or any other
large Northern city. If there are other
reasons having a semblance of common
sense which the wisdom ot the Water
street Solons have been able to evolve they
are unknown to the writer of this paper.
We may examine therefore, seriatim, those
given above.
The first objection obviously has its gist
in the adjective unnecessary; the regula
tion, doubtless, does Jmposo a hardship
unon consignees and others, but no great
er than each individual should cheerfully
aubmit to in the face of a common dan
ger, and competent authority has declared
that there is a danger, a very great dan
ger, facing us, and if tho measures provi
ded against it bear heavily upon a few
this is not to be weighed in the scale
against the safety which is secured to all,
Moreover, it is a hardship that can be
readilv avoided by looking to other unob
jectionable places for the vessels which are
required for the tramc or mis port, anu
not to localities which present even, the
possibility of infecting us.
The second oDjecuon appear wuu
much plausibility to our desire to-add to
the commercial magnitude of the city, but
when the results it threatens arc com-
nared with the annihilation which every
interest would encounter were an .epidem
ic allowed to "slip in" upon us, all must
admit its obvious untenabihty.
The third obicction is based upon the
assumption that there are ports in the
yellow fever zone which arc not liable to
send this disease abroad. Now it may
not be denied that certain ports of minor
imbortancc in that 'region do escape ah
epidemic visitation of yellow fever during
some seasons, but mere is no cviucncc at
all that they do not contain isolated cases
of ihe disease, perhaps mild in character
but withal capable of communicating the
most virulent forms of the malady. But
assuming for the argument that no case
has existed in a certain such port
during the year, it docs not loi
Iow that the gerns of the disease
bo favorable to their preservation, rcaay
to be conveyed elsewhere or to impart
these noxious influence to some unaccli
mated individual whom chancu brings
within their range. Isolated communi
ties in this zone may be free from yellow
fever, but only because those who reside
there have acquired exemption. The
fever cernw mav live, and perhaps raulti-
ply, without tne intervention i inuiviu
uals, finding a nidus in various soils, and
these, if brought hither, arc as capable of
innocnlating us as if a case of tho disease
itself were imported. But even admitting
that certain localities are exempt; both as
to the disease and its germs, are we to
legislate in their favor because the ship
has sailed thence, when we know bow
readily they pass from one port to another,
seeking cargo and crew ? Who shall be
able to say then with certainty that any
port in the fever zone is iree irom tne pos-
siDitiiy oi Demg ujo urewt-t iwt uiacAo
and death elsewhere 7
Thrt fifth ohiectloa is indeed possessed
of the most strength, ut it may be readily
seen that seasons applicable to higher
latitudes and to cities which hare pro
Tided effective and very expensive modes
cf ntiarantine service are not Talid with
na. Out parallel nnfbrtnrately affords a

net only not to resort to prohibitory legis

rules for effectivo fumigation and disinfec- i
tiun in the various circumstances of quar

preparation by a member of tbo Beard of
Health, and will soon be ready for publi

Already the cavillers aro Impugning
the ability of the Board of Health; but it
may here be told that it includes persons
who have devoted years of study to sani
tary science, and their own observations
have been reinforced by light shod from
every partf tho civilized world. Will this

opinion of our legal health advisers, .or

sanitarians? Ihc Board of Aldermen
