The recommendation in the President's Message in relation to San Domingo, finds very little opprovah It is apparent that ho now finds less support in tho acquisition of that Island than at tho laat session, aud there is no prospect that his recommendation will bo adopted.

Washington, December 6. The Ways and Means Committee met to day and referred tho President's Message to the various committees. Tho Son Domingo and fishery questions go to the Committee on Foreign Affairs. Nothing has been dono with Socrctary Bontwoll'a report, and thero haB been no expression of opinion on tho proposition to issue three hundred million flvo pcr ceut. bonds.

BEAZIL AND PARAGUAY. Treaty of Peace at E.nst Para, guay Becoming Quiet. Aboncion, Paraguay, October 20. Minister Parenhoa has just arrived to conciudo the long pending treaty of peace, which, beside the vexed question of boundaries between tho allies and Para guay, will present other difflcultiea, such as tho refusal of the Argentine government to fix tho boundaries of Asuncion. Tho whole press of the country agrees that that part of the arrangement should bo adjusted at Buenos Ayres.

Since the fearful riot, Asuncion has been quiet. The provisional government, aided by the Chamber of Depu ties, is Hastening the framing of a new national charter and the election of a new government for those people. Tho Assembly passed, after considerable debate, a bill granting religious freedom, but it has exoited hostility throughout the country, and the women of Paraguay havo been chosen to petition for the repeal of the law, hence lively times are anticipated. The country, how ever, is fast settling Into order and comparative pros perity. Fortunate Flores, who wbb the instigator of the late riot, has gone to Europe.

The Senate then, at 12:35 P. adjourned. HOUSE OP EEPRE8ENTATIVES. Washington, December 6. Mr.

Hill (N. introduced a bill to ropeal the Income Tax Law, whioh was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means. Tho credentials of the following members elect were presented and they were sworn in: Mr. Moore, from the Fifth District of Louisiana. Charles H.

Holmes, from the Twenty fifth District of New York, vice Davis. 8. Wolff, from the Second District of Iowa, vice Smyth, deceased. Mr. BUles (Pa.) demanded the previous question on the resolution providing for a redrawal of seats in the House, which was refused and tho resolution was laid on the table, Mr.

Myers (Pa.) and others, introduced bills to repeal the income tax, which was referred to the Committeo on Ways and Means. The regdlar order of business was then taken up, the pending question being upon the Senate's substitute to tho House resolution extending tho timo for the construction of tho Railroad from tho St. Croix River, or Ijike, to Bayfield, Wis, The substitute was sent to the House just beforo the close of the last session. Mr. Wilssn (Ohio), from the Committee on Public auas, auiuorjzeu sucn a legislation as would extend the timo for the construction of and to secure the completion of tho road.

Mr. Washburne (Wis.) oxplained that this was no new land grant but waa intended merely to tccuro moro timo for tho completion of a road, part of which had already been built. He proceeded to show that this road is mdispcuBiblo to the inhabitants of tho Upper MiEBipsippi Valley. Mr. Wilkes (O.) asked how many miles of tho road were uncompleted, how much land had been granted, and how much Eold to settlors, Mr.

Washburn (Wis.) said the length of theontire road was 360 miles, of which 200 miles was already built, and tho balance was under contract. Under this bill the company will receive about one million acres, The partial completion of this road had already enabled the Government to sell over half a million dollars' worth of land to settlers at $2 per acre. Mr. Wood (New York) said that if the gentlemen really understood this bill they would not voto againBt it. It was simply a continuation of a swindling Byatem, by which the government lauds were being voted away wholesale to private corporations.

The pretended extension was simply a new grant. He gave detailed statements of the amounts granted to tho various railroad Bt by this Congress, showing a total of 28.000.000 acres in nddition of grants of 42,000,000 acres to the Pacific Railroad all properly chargoablo to this Congress, Thoso who voted for this bill would bo juBtly chargeable with being interested in a scheme to absorb all public lands for the benefit of corporations. Mr. Wilson (Ohio) replied to Mr. Wood's objections, and defended tho policy of land grants to railroads, affirming that tho policy had built up Minnesota and tho Northwest, and greatly enhanced the value and promoted tho sale of Government lands.

Mr. Van Dyck, (N. objected to the bill as it ingeniously added fifty five miles of tho new road not contemplated in tho original bill of 18G4 and was an attempt to mislead. MJUTAEY MATTERS. FOBTY SEVENTH REGIMENT, N.

A MURDEROUS STABBING ENCOUNTER. Knifing; an Opponent to Settle a Quarrel 'I'll Wounded Man Dangerously Cat in the Abdomen.

A serious and probably fatal stabbing affray transpired at Bix o'clock last night, In Rivor street, near Harrison avenue, the parties to which were Charles Tertuuis and Henry Bocmring, both young mon and about the samo age, tho former of whom inflictod a dangerous cut in the abdomen of the other, whoso re covery is considered doubtful, although hopes are entertained that the injured man will survive. It appears that a beer saloon was to be opened in the locality, in which TertuniB, as a relative of the proprietor, wsb BOmewhat interested, and a dispute began on Saturday about the place between him and one Philip Stark, an old man, and was renewed yesterday, and oaoh threatened tho other. Boemrlng, a aon in law of Stark, interposed, and made a demonstration to fight it out with Tertnnis by pulling off his coat and striking out from the shoulder, and failing to reach him the first time, hit again with better effect. His opponent, who carries a bullet in his left shoulder, and cannot use tho arm on that side to any purpose, retreated a few steps, followed by Boemrlng, andin the meantime took a knife from his vest pocket and plunged it into the abdomen of Boemrlng upon the advance of the latter, upon which Tertunis fled. Tho wounded man was removed to tho bouse of Mr.

stark and a physician eummoned who pronounced him doomed to diepipona partial examination of tho inolslon, believing at first that an intestine had been Bovered, but the victim was reported in an improved state this morning, and not so badly injured as at first supposed. Coroner Whitehill took the ante mortem statement of Boemrlng last night the substance of which regarding the encounter was as stated above, and he farther named Tertunis as the person who had stabbed him and identified him when brought bofore him. bad been detained by citizens after running a short distance from the acene of the affray and was given into the custody of Officer Karcher who took him to the Sixth Precinct Station House. When arraigned bofore Justice Eames to day, the accused stated that he had been first assaulted by Boemrlng and acted in self defense only, without intent to do his opponent injury. Ho was committed without bad to await the result of the injuries inflicted by him.

THE FLUE AT THE EAST BTVEE BRIDGE WOBKS. The following report was made to the Board of Police Commissioners, by Fire Marshal Keady, this afternoon To the lion, the Board of Police Gentlemen. I havo tho honor to submit the following report of the origin and result of tho late fire in tho works of the East River Bridge. From all the testimony taken it appoars that ono of the workmen held a caudle too near the roof of tho caisson, at or near a leak. The Buction of air drew the blaze inwardly between the joints of the timber, and thus caused a slight fire.

This morning I descended to the bottom of tho caisson in order to osoertain how tho fire originated, and, if possible, the oxtant of tho damage done thereby. Assistant Engineer C. C. Martin accompanied mo down, and we found Chief Engineer Boebling below in cnurge of a gang of mon. All the water hod been pumped out, and if I had not known differently I could not have told that tho caisson had ever been on fire.

There is not tho slightest indication of fire visible abovo or below the caisson, and has not been at any time oxcept through an augur hole. Under tho direction of Mr. Uocbling, the carpontera were engaged in boring holes in tho roof of tho caisson in order to ascertain in this way what progress tho fire had mudo or what damage it had done. I witnessed the operation for flomo time, and concluded that the damage must bo very slight indeed almost nothing. Tliis boring process, Mr.

Hoebling states, will bo continued until it is ascertained how much spaco has been burned. The men were at work as usual this morning, building tho stone piers upon which the caisson is to rest. Respectfully submitted. P. Keady, Police Fire Marshal.

The Widows' and Orpnaria' Fund of tne Old Fire Department.

The Board of Trustees of the Widows' and Orphans Fund of tho old volunteer Fire Department report tho following as tho present condition of that institution. Tho total amount of the fund now is $84, 700.82. They complain of a largo deorease of the amount received dnring tho past year for compromises and violations, etc, and recommend investigation of the cause, as thoy think it should increaso rather than diminish. They state as an ovldenoe of the benevolent work in charge of the Board, that they have now on tho pension roll seventy five widows, with fifty four children, and six orphan ohlldren, all of whom look to the Fund for aid and assistance. The widows and orphans of the Fund aro visited at least twice each year, and the members of the lato Volunteer ppartniont when sick.

Notwithstanding this Fond How receives at the hands of the publlo much less attention than formerly, it is no leas worthy, of suoh consideration. It oom passes a most beneficent purpose. The officers all sorye without salary. The Gbeenwood Clot Toubnbt.

Quite a flutter of exeltcmont has been occasioned In private billiard oircles in relation to tho forthcoming exhibition of billiards by Madame Gamier, which Is to tako place at tho Assembly Billiard House, on the 19th inst. The fact that it is the first timo that any lady has ever played the game in public gives me entertainment the obarm of novelty.

Mr. Samuella has had quite a demand for invitation cards, from members of the best society of the city, and the attendance will be of the most fashionable character. Positively, no gentleman will be admitted witnout ladies, as the exhibition is designed solely for the entertainment of the fair box. Chess. The Bbooklyn Chess Association.

Every preparation has been made for tbe arrival of Jock Frost and all that is now wanted to provide tho eager crowds of skating fraternity and, we may add, sistorhood with facilities for a full enjoymeut of thoir favorite sport, is his appearance. The Capitolino Grounds have been flooded for a week past, and now everything is prepared to light tho Stoves, warm tho cozy apartments and to let In the thousands of patrons of the pond whenever the lake is firmly coated with ice. The samo thing can be said of the Union Pond, which was liooded on Saturday last.

Tbe Brooklyn Catholics on tbe Boman Question. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: In the name of the Catholics of Brooklvn.

I ask is it not timo that our good Bishop should glvo tho clergy and laity of his diocese an opportunity (as the Archbishop of Now York has done) of expressing their sentiments, and nratestlni? afrainnt the nnnrnnrift tion and spoliation of tho Pope's territory, and property which had been secured to him, and to which ho has been entitled by the laws of God aud man. il 18 not me spectacle of a people trying to rid thom selves of tho yoke of a tyronical prince against which wo protest, but slmnlv acainst the annlication of lirntH force by the Beds, who aro the true enemies of civil and religious liberty, and who prosper only in the Bub version of law and order, and BUbsist on the proceeds of their ill gotten gains. i muiK ic ngnj mai me Clergy ana laity of Brooklyn (the third cltv of the Union). should not bo slow in unit log with thoir brethren of New York, in expressing their n. nv.

.1 H.i .1.1 l.u buuuuuuauvu ui, auu lugu ajiuyuilliva Wltll all Catholic Christendom to tbe good Plus tho Ninth, in this his hour of adversity and trial, from which ho will bo delivered by tho Mighty Hand that ruleth empires. Brooklyn Cnthollcs and tne Pope. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle Now that the Catholics of New York. Phila delphia, and other oities are fully aroused In regard to tho deplorable stato of affairs in Rome, why do not Brooklyn Catholics likewise openly protest against tho invasion by tho King of Italy 7 Let the Academy of Music be hired, and an indignation meeting hold thore, and addresses made by the Bishop of Brooklyn, Dr. Freel, or some other eminent men in this diocese.

Protests written are very good, but indignation meetings are much more effective. Ireland, always true to the faith, has nobly spoken in defense of our Holy Father's riuhts. not hv writinc simply protests, but by holding pnblio indignation meetings, expressing iuo warmest actacumeut lor tne Pope, and detestation of the usurper Victor Emanuel. If Catholics would only consider that His Holiness is a prisoner in the Palaco of the Vatican, prevented from exerciBing his holy funotions, surely they would not hesitate ill openly denouueing his wicked enemies. It is asserted by some, that the Popo is allowed full freedom in spirituol motters.

Even this is not tho fact. Not a dooument, spiritual or temporal, can bo sent from tho Vatican without being first put under the inspection of tho invaders. Victor Emanuel possesses Romo at the nreaent time, not by riiiht. but bv miffht. The Pone Is as much a King to day as he was boforo the invasion of tho Eternal City, and, although a prisoner for truth's sake, fie is the only sovoreign on earth having the right to rulo in that city.

Thero has never yet been a sovereign who interfered with the rightB of tho Popes who did not feel the bad eflocts of such conduct. then, as a citizen of Brooklyn and a Catholic, advocate an indignation meeting to bo held in this city, for tho purposo of declaring that its Catholic population, at least, wish tho restoration of tho temporal rights of our Holy Father, tho Pope. No one can imagine how much this venerable old man is Buffering not on his account, but for tho sake of over two hundred millions of Catholics. It is but Just, then, that in return for all this, they should not ceaso to pray to the Ruler of all Kings, that He. in His mercy, will change tho hearts of tho enemies of his Holiness, Pius IX, and lot them discover their error ero it is too late.

An Ameiuoan Catholic. 31 r. Ilicnardson's Railroads. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Sui I have read lately in your paper, what I believe to be violont partisan attacks upon tho most enterprising railroad manager In Brooklyn, William Richardson. Tho articles in question, it is very evideut, aro but the outburst of some disappointed man's spioeu.

Although I havo only the slightest possible acquaiatanoo with Mr. Bichardson, I know what he has dono for tho public, and, like everybody else who lives along tho lino of his roadB, am exceedingly gratoful to him. The best way to meet tho attacks upon Mr. Richardson is by tho statement of a few simple facts, by ono who knows whereof he speaks. It iB now Just about three years since Mr.

Richardeon took possession of the Greenwood and East New York railroads. Since then ho has entirely rolaid the rood on Atlantic strcot from tho South ferry to Flatbush avenue and on Fifth avenue from FJatbush avenuo to Grceenwood, besides making very extensive repairs on Atlantic avenuo. Nobody knows better than yourself the miserable condition that the road, tho cars, the horses and the harness were in before Mr. Richardson took posBOsalon. During theso throe yearB Mr.

Richardson has placed thirty two new closed and twenty five open cars upon tho roads, making a total of fltty sevon. When he loosed the roads, there were only four cars of modern build upon them, now thero aro thirty six. There were not ovor ton cars upon tho roads that did not have to be almost entirely rebuilt. Thero were only sixteen altogether, that wero worth repairing at all. Such a thing as an open car had nover been seen upon these roads before he ran thom.

The condition of the horses and harness was upon a par with that of the cars, and of course theso indispensable items required a heavy outlay. Tho buildings at Atlau tio and Flatbush avenues and on Fifth avonuo had to bo repaired and rebuilt. Six flno new snow ploughs wero purohased, tbe two old ones being good for nothing but firewood and old iron. During dusty weather he has had two sprinking cars constantly at work laying the dust bctwoon the traoks. Now he has CBtoves in the cars.

All this, you must admit, coBt money. Your correspondent wants "fowor foolish innovations." Thoy aro not considered suoh by any but him. Mr. Richardson has a very heavy rent to pay. His lease amounted in reality to little more than a mere franchise.

He cannot afford to run tho oars at five cent faro, at least not at present. Another thing it would not pay to run cars lrom South ferry, for tlioy would not be filled. Depend upon it, if it would pay ho would do it, as it would shorten bis route materially. Hoping that, as a matter of Justice to Mr. Richardson, you will publish this letter (if not too long) I remain, sir, youre, respectfully, Jas.

A. Campbeli. Wbat a Small Householder Thinks of Largo Taxes. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle Politically I am and have ever been opposed to you and the general political tenor of your Journal. But I bog in this noto to thank you for your movement in favor of tho reduction of taxos in this city.

I am no political economist, but a poor flnanoier, and know little about suoh things, but I do really behove that unless thero boa chock put to this matter, this city bofore tho noxt census is taken, will have received a ter riblo drawbaok. Such enormous taxos oaunot help but drive moneyed Interests to other channels. I have now lying belore me the statistics as sot forth by the Comptroller of the city of Philadelphia, aud the assessment on city property is only $1.00 per oont. Everybody is asking why this thing is? Why this groat disorepanoy in the taxation in tho different cities. I houostly believe a great portion of it is in oonsoquonco of an improper and injudicious expenditure or, in othor words, that thero ore many moro leakages in tho various local departments than there should be.

Moro olflcluls, more petty officers, more men than are requisite to do tho work. Again, thoro is, I think, a groat lack of judgment as to timo and manner of doing things. I have seen streets nearly paved, and within a few days the cobbles would have to be ail picked out to put in the gas or water pipes, Iu my ward I boo ono man to light tho lamps, and another to wipoandkeop them clean, I know nothing of the expenditures upon thoso twoporsonagos, nor do I know whether it is universally BO throughout the oity, but it socmB to me that one person could perform both duties to tho mutual advantage of himself and tho city. Tbia appoars 0 small matter, and'so it is if satisfactory reasons flnanoially can bo shown for their employment. But if tbe unltod salarlOB of tbe two be greater than that for which either would perform both duties, then it is a useless expense, and its introduction hero sorves to illustrate tho principle, In olden times Bix per cent, was considered a fair revenue to derive from real ostuto investments, but I saw it stated a few days since, that tho tax in this city for 1870, waa to be i 82 100 or thereabouts.

How the old denizens of this goodly oity would havo gaped at such an exhibit had it been placed bofore them. This has not been written for the purpose of seeing myself in print, for I have no ambition that way, but simply to say that, for your efforts in the dlreotion indicated in tho beginning of this artiolo yon have the sincere thanks of one whoso whole property in this world consists of only a small portion of one Little House. Lobt Pbopebty. During the last month Mr. Horace Holt, Properly Clork of tho Polios Depart, ment, received $9,460 worth of lost and stolen, property.

The value of the property returned to tho awners was $3,129, leaving a oalanca worth $3 still unoausa for. Cases Concealed from tho Blealtb Of ficer Discovery of Seriously infected Children Contagion In tne Horse Cars The Situation In Dutchtown The greatest activity prevails in the Board of Health, and commendable diligence marks tho ef fects of Dr. Cochran and his associates In guarding the sanitary condition of tho city. Small pox cases are somewhat on tbe increase, but not to an extent that need give cause for any alarm while tho measures adopt ed for its mitigation aro of a character that give assur ance of its speedy disappearance. Ono of tho worst phases of the disease is the dread it seems to Inspire wherovcr it exists, as this induces all sorts of efforts for ITS CONCEALMENT, and sometimes prevents tho employment of the proper treatment and cure.

Yesterday Dr. Fiak and Officer O'Keeffe received notice from the Ninth sub Precinot Police that a family in which there ere several cases of email pox bad just moved into a houso No. 613 Myrtle avenue. Upon inquiry, they discovered that the family had removed from a houso iu Dobovolso street, E. to tho placo mentioned, for tho purpose of avoiding the Health officers.

At first they were refused admission, and tho officers wero assured in tho most positive man ner that no small pox or other disease existed thero, Insisting, however, upon making an examination, they discovered two children laying iu a bed together fear fully infected. Subsequently two others, equally low, woro found carefully concealed beneath a quantity of bedding. These children, with their mothers, were taken in charge, and carefully conveyed to the Hospital at Flat bush. The names of these families were given as Sohol maker and Erbe. They appeared to be in great want and their situation a Bad one.

The apartments in which those children were found were taken in charge by the officers, carefully cleanod and disinfected, and locked up. The house in Debevoise street was also disinfected and closed up. TWO OTHEB OASES were also discovered, yesterday, in tho Eastern District. A woman at No. 2d Marshal street, named Sohumaker, and a child, Mary Phillips, at No.

405 Graham avenue. All were sent to tbe Hospital. IN THE WE8TEBN DISTRICT Home cases were reported yesterday. Barron, attached to the Health office reports that about noon yesterday, a German, giving his name as Gibe, and supposed to bo the father of the two children found in Myrtle avenue presented himself at the Health office, Buffering with a fully developed case of small pox. He had rode from WiUiamsburgh in one of the Greenpoint cars filled with passengers.

A proceeding attended with danger to all with whom he came in contact. He was promptly sent to the hospital. Yesterday a colored woman, whose name could not be learned, died of tho small pox at 73G Atlantic street. Two other cases were also reported, from 563 DeKalb avenue, and 270 Noatrand avenue, respectively named Alice W. Holmes and Petty.

Dr. Coohran and the six physicians, a police officer and interpreter, who have charge of tho matter in the Eastern District, aro prosecuting their labors with due diligence. To day they are 'jab work in Leonard and Johnson streets. The officers are also investigating other sections of the city, where they have the least suspicion of violations of the Health ordinances. Whenever these are discovered warrants are promptly issued, and tho law enforced.

TOE FURNITURE THE DEiD 1I0USB. more of The Jail Committee's Purchas esCarpets at $2 a Yard, Worth 1.10 and Sixty Yards Short Spittoons and Window Shades in Great Abundance, $244; Worth 112 Mats and Matting. There met this morning, at half past eight o'clock, in the office of Loomis Thorne, in Montague Btreet, a party of gentlemen, consisting of Supervisor Harman, S. B. Chittenden, S.

M. Griswold, and a reporter from each of the local papers. Some of tho gentlemen entered a carriage and drove to Sidney place, thero taking in Supervisor JohnBon, and proceeding thence directly to the Dead House or Morgue, at the foot of Willoughby street, where they wero joined, by tho remainder of the party. The object of this early visit was not of a mysterious character, but simply to examine some further purchases of THE JAIL COMMITTEE of the Board of Supervisors which were made Borne months since. The building known as the Morgue or Dead House, has already been fully described in these column b.

It is a very neat and substantial structure of brick, erected for the purposes to which it is devoted, and apparently possesses every desirable accommodation. It has a basement and sub cellar, with cemented bottoms and shelves of maBsivo construction to receive coffins containing dead bodies which it may be doomed desirable to keep for some days. The rooms are cleanly kept and well ventilated. A dumb waiter, which has for some timo been "out of repair," is being recon structed, and is used for raising and lowering colfins from the main floor to tho cellars. The first or street floor is devoted to one or two small offices, and a large sized room where dead bodies are placed view, separated from another apartment by a partition of glass windows, through which visitors are permitted to gazo upon the inanimate forms that have been robbed of life by suicide, homicide, accident, or unknown causes.

These arc exhibited upon elevated marble Blabs, with such an inclination that the entire form and face aro exposed. There are five or six of these tables, though it is seldom that two bodies are exposed at ono time, and sometimes for many days together not ono has an occupant. Another room 1b used to hold post mortem examinations. Tho second floor of this building has three or four apartments for dwelling purpoeeB, a jury room, and a court room. It was upon the second story that the visitors, this morning, found in use the furniture tho inspection of which was the chief object of their call.

180 YARDS OP CaHPETTOG was billed at $350, or 32 a yard. The bills made out ignore tho prices per yard, or dozen, or any of the customary forms adopted by men In mercantile business. The carpet is tapestry and known to the trado as Bright being imported by ono firm in Now York who have its exclusive sale. It was worth last Spring $1.10 per yard at wholesale, and was purchasable at retail at numerous places in Now York and Brooklyn at $1.25 per yard. An investigation as to the measurement reveals the fact that there was NOT TO EXCEED 120 TABDS of it.

Six walnut tables charged to the County at $15 each, were adjudged to be worth $7 each when new. In one item upon tho bill arc named FITTY SPITTOONS AND FIFTY WINDOW SHADES, $244.00. Tho spittoons are worth about three dollars por dozen at wholesale, and tho window shades are of plain goods, known to the trado as Hollands. Placing these at what was considered a fair valuation, it was considered that the above item would have afforded a fair profit at $112, inetead of $244. The matting upon the floor, purchased by the Jail Committee, cost ono dollar and fifty cents per square yard.

Having completed their observations, the gentlemen very strongly concurred in the opinions of Supervisor Harman upon the subject, and seemed to think if those evidences in ono very small rivulet of county expenses were fair samples of the manner in whioh the) funds in the County Treasury are disbursed, it was time to enter into a thorough investigation, and as an offset to theeo "wholesale" purchases, have a wholesale weeding out and a general reorganization, irrespective of partisan opinions. Industrial School Faib. Tho fair and festival of the Industrial School Association and Home for Destituto Children, opened last evening at tho Academy of Music, tho auditorium being floored over for the accommodation of the crowds that woro certain to come, and crowds did come. The attendance was excellent.

Bright ladies flitted about from stand to stand, examining the tempting wares and merrily ohat ting with their gallant escorts. Amateur merahants and shop tenders, fair young girls or experienced matrons, stood post behind these samo tables and gave an added grace and provided an extra temptation for the young men to pause a moment, and ostensibly examine with a critical eye tbe aforesaid goods so richly displayed. The stage at the eastern end was occupied as a restaurant for weary and hungry visitors. The tent" usual on fcBtivo occasions was spread above them, and the background, representing a Grecian temple added to the beauty of the scene. A screon of flogs was stretched from the edge of the gallery ceiling, cutting off tho view of tho stage from the seats, save where the necessary passages occurred, thus compelling all would be Btragglers to the front." The tables were ranged before this screen, extending in a nearly unbroken line around the auditorium, presenting one line of temptation.

Tho proscenium box at tho north Bide was sot aside as the Treasurer's office for tho reception of donations in money, and Bomo were they that walkod therein and laid down their cash or their pledgee. Opposite this, the southern proscenium box was laboled as tho resort of archers, and many beaux with bows and with arrowy like maidens peeped In. Contiguous to this was the always interesting Post Offico, established under the system of Postmaster General Cupid, and erratic youths and maidens frequently paused at its portals for tho words of cheer they knew would come to them for tho asking. On ono of tho tables was a lovely little French doll, bb complete as possible She was bewitchingly begarbed In mourning and might have aptly answered to tho name of the Little Widow, and a oharming little widow she was, like all lovely widows sho was very soon bid for, and not long after making her acquafntanoo our susceptible but impecunious reporter found her ticketed "sold." Whether he felt so or not is his bwn business. Such is the lot of poverty and such Is the fortune of opulence.

Trade was lively last night and appetites sharp, and tho fair and festival was thus insured an anspioious opening. A goodly number of our prominent citizens beamed benllloently in the brilliant halls, lending by their presence both their moral and their tangible, physical and financial support to the cause and this pleasant motbod of aiding it, and thereby cheering tho heart of tho orphan and the homeless ono, by seourlng for thom tho comforts of a shelter and tho means of providing for themselves a home and a position of honor in after life. The fair will continue through to day and to morrow, opening each day at 8 P. and continuing open until the reasonably early hour of 10 P. M.

Mayor KulbfloiMcH's Supplement ary Veto. Mayor Kalbfleisch presented to the Board of Aldermen last evening a communication which may be regarded aa a supplement to hia veto of the action of tho Board in authorizing tho appropriation of S1.4C0.OO0, under a law passed at the last session of the Legislature, for the purposo of augmenting tho wa ter supply of the City of Brooklyn.

With two points of the Mayors communication we emphatically agree. The first 1h that this subject should not be lightly disposed of, for a large expenditure is involved in it, and tin second is hie opposition to auy addition to the public debt of the city "unless tho necessity for incurring it cannot bo questioned." Although the question of providing an adequate supply of water for Brooklyn in the immediate future has been before the public, in an omclul form, for over eighteen months, tho Eagle anticipated tho Mayor in condemning the haste with which the aldermen finally acted on the subject. We wero enabled to Bustaln the Mayor's tcIo of tho action of tho Board for tho reason that it secured the opportunity all fair men desired of fully considering the subjoct in all its bearings. We are all agreed that a failure of the impply of water at any season of the year, and for even tho shortest period, would be a loss in many ways to Brooklyn, which could not be overestimated and might expose us to calamities bo serious that oven the apprehension of them wonld be fatal to the growth of the city. Public opinion is not divided on tho question of providing for tho future the full and copious supply of water which she has enjoyed for the past ton years the introduction of which has been worth un told millions to the city and enabled Brooklyn to take and to maintain a placo among the groat cities of the Union.

Brooklyn would be pushed back a hundred years behind cities which she now rivals, if she were compelled to rely on wells for the supply of a prime necessity of city life. She is exposed to injury from a failure of her water supply, or from an apprehension of it, precisely in proportion to the advantage "she secured from the introduction of water origin ally, or to the loss she would sustain by its ab solute withdrawal now. If, last year, vrhen the citi zens of Philadelphia were deprived, during the dry eeason, of the necessity and luxury of a ful supply of water when her manufactories were stopped when her commerce was embairasjjod, and when the alarm of a nro, however slight, awakened the fear of a conflagration there was no adequate means of checking, if at that time it could be shown that the Chief Magistrate of Philadelphia, by an unreasoning opposi tion, stood in tho way of avoiding this embarrassment. danger and loss, he would be certain to be oxecrated by his fellow citizens. Wo will go as far as Mayor Kalbfleisch in the direction of economy, but we are painfully convinced that the Mayor lends us no assistance In this instance, by the way in which he meets a question which cannot be settled by unreasoning negation, or by present ing objections so vague and far fetched, that thoy are exposed to tho charge of being mora quibbles offered to suptain a predetermined opinlou which is supported by no argument uneiy to set tho public mind at ease, in smrmng a subject too grave to be thus disposed of.

ihe Mayor, in his communication to the Board of Al dermen last evening, professes to bo opposed to the plan of augmenting our water supply, devised by the engineers, lor these reasons: 1. First, the cost may exceed the estimates of the engineers. 2. If additional water storage be needed, we own land on which a reservoir can be constructed, adjoining tho existing reservoirs at Cypress Hills. 3.

In 1854 Gen. Burnet cave it as his opinion that if tlie natural ponds on the island are dammed, so that the water in them reach above a certain height, the water would be forced back on the Bprings, and would either destroy them or force the stream from them into other channels than those through which they now flow. 4. The reservoirs on the island, if built, may prove a failure, because the attempt to carry water to Brooklyn through an open conduit was abandoned. 5.

Engineer Kirkwood.in 1861, pointed out that by ex tending the Water Works eastward we can secure an average supply of forty million gallons of water daily, irrespective of a storage reserve which, it appears, was then contemplated. 6. Our watersupply from the Islandat some indefinite time will fall short any way, and we may have to resort to wells again, a contingency to which the Aldermen are so far committed that recently they reopened a well in the Kixth Ward. 7. Messrs.

Kirkwood called attention to the fact of the waste of water by the citizens, and suggested that that matter should not be lost sight of. 8. The Mayor believes that tho law under which the Aldermen are acting is invalid anyway. This reason, if it amounts to anything, might fairly be supposed to do away with the necessity of all tho othera. Without attempting to follow tho Mayor through the sinuous course of his opposition, let ub state the case as it is fairly presented to the public.

The existing water works of Brooklyn were designed to supply tho city with twenty millions of gallons of water daily. It was not supposed at the time the plan of the works was fixed upon that this quantity would bo adequate for all time. It was estimated that it would be sufficient for ten or fifteen years t3 come, and with making thin promise for tho future tho city authorities of 1858 were content. They went, however, one step further. While the ponds they brought into use wero capable of yielding a minimum supply of twenty mil lion gallons daily, the conduit constructed then is capa ble of conveying to the city forty millions of gallons 1 daily.

In other words, we were left in 1858 in this position Brooklyn is now secured twenty millions of gallons daily. When you require more you must goto the expense of securing it, but we havo taken tho precaution of giving you a conduit capable of conveying fr rty millions of gallons daily. Now, tho plain question presents itself, are we now using twenty millions of gal knaof water daily? or, in other words, has it becomo necessary to extend the works? Tbe question at issue here is mainly one of fact. The consumption of water steadily increases, at the rate of nearly twenty five per cent, per annum. Our population does not, of course, increase in this ratio, but tho increase of water consumers is in advance of tho increase of population, owing to yearly extension of water facilities within the city, and tho moro general introduction of water in houses where it waB not formerly uped.

The increase of manufactories and of commerce, of course, adds to the consumption of water out of proportion to the addition made to our population. For eight years past tho daily consumption of water has been as follows, as returned by the Euginccr of the Water Department U. S. I IU. s.

Year. Gallons. 5,021,250116 .12,343,100 232501868... 15,710,700 Year. 1662....

1663.... H.bM,MU Adding twenty five per cent, increase for 1870 over 18C9, and tho daily consumption of water this year would be about 21,000,000 gallons. These figures aro substantially the same as returned by the Engineer. We presume the Mayor is satisfied with the accuracy these figures, for he has not, in tho multitude of bis objections, impunged them. If tho figures aro accurate Brooklyn is now using all the water her water works supply.

The necessity of making provision for tho immediate fuluro is therefore upon us. If cannot be delayed. It being conceded then that wo must at once provide for increasing our water supply, the question presents Itself what is the moat effectlvo aud economical way of doing so No light is thrown on this subject by the Mavor. It Is easy we presume for any man who haB time and a captious temper to find fault with the plan of the Engineers, but what is the Mayor's plan? If he admits that we need to increaso our supply of water, and asks us to reject the plan presented, he should at all events indicate some other plan. Ho telle us we own land on Cypress Hill on which we can build a reservoir, and he tells us that wo havo material there for tho purpose a mistake, we fear.

Two thirdH of the land the city owns on Cypress Hill is occupied by the present reservoir. If it is capable of holding gallons of water, if we increase its capacity one third, we can store there an additional 80,000,000 gallons. The Mayor, of course, is well awaro that the water in store at Cypress Hill is designed to mei tho contingency of a break on tho lino of the works, or at the engine house. In such au event wo would have just a week's supply of water for the city in reserve. No city has less than this.

The Engineers believe it is too little. Two of the Mayor's suggestions are deserving of consideration. One of thom we presume haB boon considered by the ongineers it is the effect on the springs and the head feeding streamt of increasing the quantity of water in the pond designed to be used as a storage reservoir. The other is a radical chango of plan, by undertaking at once to extend tho water works eastward and tako all our ponds under contribution. The objection to this plan would be its cost.

If we cannot afford to spend one million four hundred dollars in saving the water now wanted, we cannot afford to spend threeor four millions in taking in other ponds. The former plan will be necessary some day in any case it meets tbe wants of tbe immediatefuture. Under the plan presented by the Engineers of the Water Board, it is proposed to construct a storage reservoir between Hempstead and liockvillo Centre. It will contain over a thousand million gallons of water. Through this reserve wo can so equalize the flow of the ponds as to increase their mlnumem supply from twenty million gallons of water daily to thirty.

This plan we believe is tho cheapest and the best. Wo must guard, as best we can, against jobbery in this as in other public work. Tho land required must be purchased by Commissioners appointed by tho Supreme Court. Its value should be, comparatively, very triiliDg. For the accuracy of the estimates wo have tho character of Mr.

Kirkwood. the Engineer who built the works, and Colonel Adams, who now has charge of them. It will bo difficult to secure higher professional character In support of any plan, or of any estimates. Tho Eagli; will eagerly support tho Mayor in this position Tbe Water Department of this city Bhoul i be self sustaining. Until a plan shall be devised by tho Commissioners to mako it bo, and it Is accepted, we are opposed to making any addition to the capital now invested.

Let the appropriation be held subjeot to this contingency. This, wo believe, is the true solution of thin diatculty, compatible with tho requirements of the present and tbe wants of tho future. E. D. TzBPsicnonEAN Festivals.
