Joint Meeting, A nieetinir of the New Hanover Board of Health was held last nigh tn nonfer with a committee from the Board ot Aldermen,consistinc; o rvnr Hall and Alderman Bear, m mfprpnr to the Introduction or im portation of secoud hand clothing. j Mayor Hall, as Chairman ex officio, presided. Alter a free exchange of views, and looking at the matter from a i sanitary standpoint, it was decided that the committee should report to the Board of Aldermen that the Board of Health deem the importation ot second hand clothing hazardous to the health of the city, and asked, for au ordinance proscribing it from our midst. It was further recommended that a systematic and energetic policing of private pre mises bo engaged in and housekeepers are requested to lend their efforts 1 to wards putting the city in a perfectly clean condition.

The Baltimore and Wilming ton S. S. Co. A line of steamers between Baltimore and Wilmington, is now a fixed fact. Tho Steamship Raleigh, -will sail from Baltimore sometime between the 1st and 10th of September and will be followed by ; another steamer. The Company have not as yet decided which of three steamships they wM put on the line with the I Iialcigh. Capt. A. D. Cazaux will be tho agent of the line in this city. It now devolves upou uui merchants to patronize the line if Jtbey desire water communciation with Balti more. If tho lino is not patronized and the company are discouraged in their efiorts, it is not at all probable that an other attempt will be made in a number of years to establish a line of steamers between the two ports. The Baltimore &ri,of the 6th inst. publishes an article purported to have -been clipped from the Star of this city, to the effect that Gen. Littlefield of North Carolina is to put on a line of steamers between tlx Iwn cities. w That is altogether a mistake; our neighbor did not publish! the article credited J to it, neither has Gen. Littlefield anything to do with the enterprise. Mr. E. Littlefield. ot Balti more, a gentleman with large shipping interests.is one of the company .that has established the line. Southern Railroads.

He was apprehended inside; of Mr. Jno.C. Heyer'4 store a few nights ago and tried to make ffood his escape, but failed and was captured.
