The City Money ana Brooklyn Trust Company What tho Treasurer Says About Co operating With the Con troller Washington Stroet Widening Another Proposition The Street Lighting Contract.

The Finance of Oommon Coun cil while agreeing to accept per cent, interest on do posits of city monoy from the banks, intimated that the Brooklyn AXUSt uompailjr wumu uu reiiuuoMsu jjay a higher rate, a it has been the advantage of not being ranuested to keen 26 Tier cent, on deposit aa the banka have to do. With a view of ascertaining what the of ficers of the Trust Company had to say in reference to the matter, a reporter of the Eagle called at the office of the Company, and questioned Mr. E. 8. Mills regarding it.

Mr. Mills, who had just entered the office, after on illness of a week's duration, stated that ho should have attended the meeting of the Tin ance Committee last evening had he been well enough, and that, admitting that the Trust Company had some dvantageB whioh tho banks had not, ana paia i per cent, to private depositors, it was willing and would hereafter pay i per cent, interest on city deposits. This would bo a half per cent, mora than the bankB had igreed to pay. He further stated that the Trust Com pany would have boon willing to pay that rate before, but that as the banks were paying only 3 per cent, is would not have been to the interest of tho Company to volunteer to raise the rate, but it was entirely satisfactory to do so now. THE TBEABUBEB AND CONTBOLLEB.

Mr. Schroeder, tho Controller, having stated that tho Treasurer had failed to co operate with him in so disbursing the city's money as to equalize as much as possible the deposits in the banks, tho reporter asked Mr. Sprague, the Treasurer, what he had to say in regard thereto. He replied, "It is just the contrary." Con troller JohnBon used to notify me when he was about to draw warrants for large amounts, and then, at my snggestlon, would draw them in such separate amounts as would enable me to designate different thus equalize tho drafts. But Controller Schroeder does not do that.

He draws warrants without consulting the first I know of them 1b when they are presented at this office, when I have but one course to pursue, and that is to designate what bank or banks shall pay them. Sometimes a warrant 1b for a large amount and it neo CBsarily draws heavily on the bank designated. The Controller, not the Treasurer, has the drawing of the warrants, and if he would consult with me before drawing large warrants, I would gladly oo operate with him by suggesting how many warrants to moke, so as to equal ize tho draft. As Treasurer, I desire to do what is best for the interest of the oity, and shall take pleasure in co opeiating with the Controller to that end, if he will give me an opportunity to do so, instead of standing off and finding fault with everybody else." Mr. Sprague further expressed himself ready to do anything that tho Finance Committoe might Buggest, that would advance the financial interest of tho city.

WASHINGTON STBEET WIDENING. Mayor Powell expresses himself as favorable to the proposed widening of Washington street by cutting twensy teot off tho west side, from Sands to Fulton streets, and thinks that it might be well to commence tho work, so as to have it completed by the time the bridge is finished, but is doubtful whether any aotion in that direction will be taken at the present session of the Legislature. Mr. Silas Ludlam, City Surveyor, called on the Mayor this morning, with a sketch of JTulton, Washington and Adams streetB, and other Btreets intersect ing and adjacent thereto, and suggested that instead of widening Washington street it would be better to widen Adums street on the east sido, first extending the approach to the bridge to that street. Ho thinks that it would be less expensive and fully as convenient to adopt his plan.

The Mayor does not agree with him. Mr. Ludlam's plan can be seen sketched at the Mayor's office. THE STBEET LIOHTINO. Whon the Gas Committoe roported in favor of award ing the contract for lighting, cleaning, and repairing the street lamps to the several Companies, a resolution appended to the report directed the proper officers of tho city to pay the Gas Companies such amount as they had paid provious to tho contract being entered into.

This meant that the lamplightors woro to be paid two cents per lamp for the past threo months, and ono cent hereafter. City Auditor Shaurman Btates that he cannot and will not approve of any bills for two cents per lamp, a tho bids were for one cent, and he cannot audit bills for work exceeding $100 unless done under contract. The difference between one and two cents for three months is $10,000. The prospect of the lamplighters being paid two cents is very poor, unless the Legisla ture step in with a Bpeoimen reform law, and compel the city to pay the advance. THE TUGBOAT EXPLOSION.

Running an Old and Worthless Boiler of the Westf ield Kind. The explosion on board the tugboat Daven port has caused great excitement. At about 10 o'clock this morning two men, named Bogan and Krous, succeeded in bringing a piece of the boilorpipe to tho surface. They continued to drag near the samo spot, and at about 11 o'clock their grappling irons caught the body of James Caulflold, the fireman. Tho unfortunate man had evidently struggled for life.

Although badly scolded about the face, his inju ries were not sufficiently severe to have caused doath, and there is no doubt that he was dragged to the bottom by the signal halyards of tho tug, which were found oncircling his body when it was taken from the water. There is evidence of the worthlessness of tho Daven port's boiler. The brother in law of Dexter, tho engineer, whoso body has not yet been found, says that the latter waa in daily fear for his life, and was anxious to find other emiuoyment, as ho thought that an explo sion might occur at any moment. Isaac Vail, the man who was injured on board tlie canal boat Rachel King, still lies in a precarious condition, but there are hopes of his recovery. AN ERRING ABIGAIL.

About noon of yesterday, Mrs. Maggie Bingham, a resident of No. 70 North Third street, E. having occasion to visit a room on the second floor of her dwelling, found, to her surprise, a female busy ing herself in doing up a bundle of clothing. In fact, both women were startled, the occupant at sight of the intruder, and the latter for the reason that she had not detected the approaching footsteps of Mrs.

Bingham. The occupant of the house was none of the fainting Borland was therefore not wholly unprepared fors uch an emergency. She therefore sent for Officer Tealo, while Bhe herself stood guard, and upon his arrival the thief in petticoats, whose name is Abigail Fletcher, was escorted to a cell in the Fourth street Station House. Upon being arraigned before Justice Voorhies to day, the prisoner entered a plea of guilty of an attempt at burglary, and will for the ensuing six months occupy odgings at the Penitentiary. A NEAT BURGLARY.

For daring and the risk assumed, a bur glary committed at tho the dry goods store of T. L. Gordon, corner of Fourth and South Fifth streets, E. during last night, has not often been surpassed. The location is one of the most public in the distriot, and at all hours of the night there are more or less people on the Btreet either going to or from New York, and yet the robbery was committed without deteotion, strange to say.

Directly on the corner is a double faced show window, facing on both streets, in one light of whioh on oblong hole was cut large enough to ad mit the body of a young person, through whioh an en trance was effected. ThiB, the greatest risk, having been overcome, tho rest was comparatively easy, unless the operturo in the window should be seen by a policeman, whioh was not the case, and thus favored the thieves availed themselves of the opportunity to Beloct whole pieces of rib bons and fringes and the best kids contained in tho cases. They carried away, as estimated by tho owner, from $400 to $000 worth of goods, with which they made their exit by a sido door. To say the loast, it seems curiouB that the cut window pane was not discovered until the store was opened by tho olerk thiB morning.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: I see the complaint of "A Lady Passenger" in the EaqXiE, against the crowds on the platforms" on the oity railroad cars. What sho says is true.

I havo for a long time intended to oall attention of the Eagle to what is the meanest, and most unmannerly praotioe or perhaps it may be thoughtlessness of men and boys on the car platforms. I refer to. the praotioe of men, gentlemen, I suppose, of standing on the platforms and backing themselves up against the sides of the door, and seizing with both hands behind them, the hand roil or rod that leads from the steps to the oar door, thereby compelling passengers entering and leaving the car to take an outside passage, and get in or out ob best they can, without any kind of support, or aid of the hand rail, whioh I always supposed was placed on the oars for the purpose of aiding passengers, particularly ladies and ohildren, to get in and out without danger of falling, or being thrown from the cars by any sudden start or motion. I dont remember to have over seen anv notice or anv complaint In the public papers of this exceedingly rude and unmannerly practice, and it always vexes mo to see full grown men ond boys, "of the larger growth," plant thomsolves bo firmly beside the oar doors and fasten themselves with suoh tenacity to thB only moans of BUOTort or aid orovidod or tho DaBsaBe.fromthB streot into tho car, thereby compelling ladies and all others, the infirm or aged, to take an outsido passage, to double the cape to get around tho obstruotion as best thoy can. neep tne lnBiue oi tno traok oloar.

Traveleb, Questions for the Post Office Depart ment. 3b the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Con you teU me what becomes of the Tast number oi letters mat are not ueuverou, ana why dead letters uro never included in tho list published in the columns of various journals AIbo, why Bomo lottors that are addressed plainly and properly novor reach the roBpeotivo paruos u. carried out to this gloomy little baok structure to bo made the subjects of post mortem oraminations. The law requires the physician to make suoh an examin ation of all pationts who ale in tho hospital oxoept such aB are claimed and taken charge of by friends. Sr.

Diaz grimly observed that a complete history of the patients may be furnished. Knowing when and where born, the authorities deem It right that when and how they die shall also be as exactly recorded. In the after noon the reporter went out with Drs. Beiger and Diaz to see one of THESE EXAMINATIONS. To describe the process would not add to the rather limited charms of death in a hospitaL Suffice it to say that the work was done in a moat Christian and artistlo spirit.

In the dead house there were half a dozen coffined Bubjects, with the name and age of the inmates written upon the lids. They were to bo removed at sundown to tho burying ground. In two cases, in ad dition to the name and age, the word "smallpox" was added in ohalk. On returning to the hospital from this rather gloomy adjunct, tho reporter met DB. SOHENOK, who hod up to this timo been absent in the city on business, and had ft short conversation with him on the subject in general.

The average number of patients throughout the past year in tho hospital, ho said, had been 350, and tho average mortality was 13 per cent. Inordor, however, that a fair comparison bo made here, it is necessary to remember that the mass of the patients who present themselves for treatment are old and generally worn ont. Their ailments are, in most cases, of a severe nature. They do not come to the hospital because there ia a pain in their head or ohest, but because if they remain away they would bo likely to die. In the Bmallpox hospital there are at present forty two patients.

Since tho beginning of the present fiBcal year the per centage of deaths here has been 22; while last year it wob but 18 per cent. ThiB change the Doctor accounts for by the greater severity of the disease, and the fact that those suffering from it in its milder forms have not been sent to the hospital, but have been quarantined in their homes by Dr, Coohran. Last year, however, the result compared favorably with any other hospital in the country. IT COST to support this institution last year $90,495.24, of which $54,000 were Bpent for supplies; $23,000 for services; for transfers and repairs, and $11,000 for medicines. There are, of course, as many nurses aa there are wards.

The male nurses, besido being olothod and fed, get $16 per month, and the females under the same conditions, $8 per month. These persons are on duty night and day, and can only lenvo the Hospital by special permission. Tho assistant doctors are also constantly in tho building, nover leaving it but by permission of their chiof. They make two visits a day to each patient, and aro subject to call in caso of emergency at any time, day or night. Altogether, the impression made upon the reporter after a thorough examination wae that of an excellently managed institution, subject, howover, to tho qualification that the supplies mentioned are not all that might be desired.

"THE HEALTH BALANCE." Lecture Before the If. M. C. by Dr. WiUard Parker, of Sew York City The "Overcoat of the Soul" Blood the Iif of the Flesh The Blood making: machine Time Beqnired for the Digestion of Food We are more than Three quarters Water What the Health Balance" is Tho Art of Preserving Health and lAfe The 7se of Cakes, Pies and Candies Exercise, Water, Sunlight, Air, Best and Dress No Ice Cream Saloons in Paradise Does Digestion Continue While we Sleep 7 The hall of the Young Men's Christian Association was well filled laBt evening, by on audience assembled for the purpose of listening to New York's celebrated surgeon, Dr.

Willard Parker, whoso subject on this occasion was "The Health Balance." A number of illuminated diagrams were hung in the rear of tho stage, illustrating tho throat, heart, lungs, stomach, to which tho lecturor referred during tho course of Iub remarks, which ho opened by a quotation from Pope Know then thyself, preBume not God to scan, Tho proper study of mankind is man." Man, said tho Doctor, is Baid to bo a compound being, made up of a soul or spirit and a body, but he did not so regard it. There is but one simple Individual consciousness, and the body, instead of being a part of you is the instrument of your consciousness and is just aB much your instrument as is your watch. THE BODY IS ONLI A SOBT OF OVEBCOAT which tho Boul makes use of, and it is ever changing. You have not now ths same bodies which you had when you came into this room, and you will not have the same bodies you now have when you depart from this room. Still, you are the same individual now that you were when a schoolboy.

But it is not my intention to speak of the son! this evening. I shall leave psychology, the soul and that matter out of the question. I am here to speak of tho machinery of the body, and will have to do with that alone on this occasion. This body is very changeful, while THE SPIBIT BEMAINS ONE AND THE SAME. Our character is not made up of the body.

It is the spirit, tho conscious individual which owns and uses the body, which makes up the character. This body is a most wonderful piece of machinery. It is formed from blood, and the body may bo said to bo a blood making machine. We havo sewing machines, washing machinos, but not one comes up to this great machine, which surpasses all others. You may havo over bo good a'soul or conscious Ego inside, but if you havn't a good body and good eyes, tho poor fellow can't see.

Long since it was Baid that in THE BLOOD WAS THE LIFE OF THE FLESH, and all the scientists in the world never have nor never will, I believe, be able to get together materials from which they can make blood. Professor Huxley may talk of Mb protoplasm, and all that, but he can not mako blood. We take materials into the ByBtom aud they undergo digestion, forming the blood which is tho basis of all life. The system takes up what is best for the health of this body, and rejects what is not best. In order to manufacture this blood, it ia meet that certain niu(crialB bo carried into the system.

We have, therefore, materials which pass into tho systom which arc called Ingesta, while those which are ejected from tho system are called Egesta. THIS BLOOD MAKING MACHINE is constantly taking up the good material, and throw ing oil the old, worn out, cieaa material, uur ureator does not act by hap hazard, but every article of food is adapted to its purpose, and has its place. All that nature has to do ia dono in an oxact and precise way. And in thiB way blood is made. Dr.

Parker then called attention to the following table, which Bets forth in hours and minutes tho timo required for the digestion of the articles of food mentioned: Food. Hours. Min. Rice 1 00 Tripe 1 00 Trout 1 30 Milk 2 00 Beans 2 80 PotatooB 2 80 Turkey 2 30 Bcof 00 Mutton 3 15 Eggs 3 30 Wheat Bread 3 30 Veal 4 00 Beef (salt) 4 15 Cabbage 4 30 Pork 6 16 WE ABE MOBE THAN THBEE QUABTEBS WATEB. This may Bound strangely, but it ia true.

You buy a pound of beefsteak, but it is threo quartera water after all. You buy a quart of milk true milk, I mean and you have eighty seven parts of water. This ia quite enough without the milkman helping us to any more. Water is one of the largest elements of or body. The following table of "Ingesta" and "Egesta" was then alluded to, showing in pounds and one hundredths what is taken into tho systom, and ejected therefrom, of a neaitny person every twemy iour nours IHGEBTA.

EOSBTA. Oxygen 1.02 Water 4.73 Albnmenolds 40 Amyloids 66 Fats 22, Salt 04 1 Oarbonlo Add 1.53 Vapor. 1.10 Perspiration 1.93 Kidneys 2.02 Urea 40 Salts 04 A healthy person takes in seven poundB of material and ejects Beven pounds per day 1 If you have been true to yourself you have thrown off just as much as you have taken in, and that is what is oalled THE HEALTH BALANCE. If you take in seven pounds and throw off but Bix you have ono pound of dead material inBide of you, Bnd are "full of dead men's bones." People appear to like much better to take physio instead of good exercise, which is all wrong. Let the waste materials go off by nature's proper alulcewaya the lungB, the akin and kidneys.

When the Lord made tho human systom he made sewers for it, and these Bowers should be used. THE ABT OF PBESEBVINO HEALTH AND LIFE is to preserve that health balance. If you do not you will be meeting the just retribution that tho violation of God's laws brings, every day of your lives. You can not purify tho blood with physio. I know of no purifier of the blood in the shape of medicine.

I don't believe it iB possible to do any suoh thing. If your blood is Impure, get your dogs, guns and fishing rods, and go out among the hills, and get plenty of good plain food and fresh air and you will soon get good pure blood. Dr. Parker, after describing the system and its functions thoroughly, went on to show his audience how they should monago in order to preserve their system in proper condition. He deprecated THE USE OF CAKES, PIES AND CANDIES, saying that milk was the proper type of the food we should eat.

Wo should not eat so mnoh meat as we do. The idea is all wrong. Our proportion of meat should be one sixteenth of other things. If wo put in too much meat the system has to go to work and throw it off. It is as wrong as it ia to take quack medioine.

TAKE PLENTY OF EXEBCISE. Keep your sluiceways open, and you will be better persons. You must have plenty of pure air in the house and out of it. You must have plenty of rest, especially those of you who work with the head. From four to six hours of head work is all one should take in twenty four.

You want PLENTY OF PURE WATEE inside and out. "Bread and water" are the "staff of life." Never drink between meals for it impedes digestion. Water is Nature's groat romedy. Naturo is a glorious old creaturo, with her wator ouro establishments. It is very important that we havo PLENTY OF BUNLIOHT.

The ancients had their sun baths. We ought to have the same. Persons who live in the shade are pale, siok ly and peevish. Get plenty of eunlight and air evening air as well as day air. Thoro never was so absurd an idea as that pure evening air ia injurious 1 Get as much of it as you can.

BATHE NIGHT AND MOBNINO and "groom" yourself as you would your horse. Don't think more of your horse than you do of yourself. Don't stuff yourself with minoe pies and puddings. Thero were no suoh things in Paradise. ADAM NEVER VISITED AN IOE CBEAM SALOON.

Get plenty of rest. Take a nap in your ohair after inner, it wiu ao you gooa. A gentleman in the audience here passed Dr. Parker the following questions "Does digestion oontinue while one is sleeping "Or does tho food lie dormant until we awake?" The Doctor replied that digestion continued aotlvoly wnne a person is osioep, mil aepreoatea eating Deiore retiring at night, beoause no exerolso is had for eo long a time. BE CAREFUL HOW YOU DBES8.

Don't put on so much as to make yourself perspire, nor so little' as to cause you to catoh oold. Clothe your children so they can. jump and run about with ease. Don't load them down with clothes "for fear they should catch cold." The ladies way of dressing now a days is simply outrageous, and it is impossible to do as many of them do witn Justice to our race. THEY TIE THE STOMACH TO THE BAOK BONK as tight as they can do it.

Dr. Parker closed his lecture with muoh eood advioe of this charaoter, having talked an hour and three quarters to an audience who oould Bnd wouls have listened aa long again if he had desired to continue. E. D. Dispensary.

For the past month, aa per report of the dispensing apothoeary, Dr. H. P. Hardcastle, thero havo been treated at this institution 817 patients, of whom 256 were vacoinated. Proscriptions for the'somo period numbers 1,179, and sinoe thi first of the present month, over 309 persons have beei vacoinated in addition to those previously reported, Its Appearanoe and Administration.

NORSES, DOCTORS AND PATIENTS, Complaints Grounded and Groundless. FOOD UNFIT TO BE EATEN. Where Responsibility Rests. During the past week several communications have been addressed to, and have appeared in the columns of the Eagle, touching the condition and general management of the County Hospital, at Flatbush. Bad bread, rancid butter, and insufficiency of milk are a few of the many specific charges mado.

One of these letters in particular presented a series of complaints, which, if true, would be long and strong enough to have hung the responsible parties. In view of these complaints, and in order to get, if possible, some light on tho actual condition of aflaias, a reporter of tho Eaolk visited tho hospital yesterday, and spent most of the day in examing the different departments. The hospital is finely situated on Clarkson avonue, (near to the other County buildings), and from its upper windowB commands a magnificent view of the surrounding country. All the adjoining land is under cultivation, and thref ore free from malarial diseases. THE BUtLDINO ITSELF is of brick, faced with stone, plain but substantial looking.

It is divided into three seotions two wings and a centre, in which the offices of the institution are located. The northern wing is occupied by tho female patients, and the southern by the men. There are 29 wards in ail, distributed over three floors, all constructed exactly alike, and under preoisoly identical manage ment. At the rear of the establishment, and extending from each story, is a wide, airy portico, upon which the convalescent patients are at liberty to sit or walk about, chat together, and enjoy the breeze when there is any blowing. The cooking rooms are situated in the basement of tho building, and look pretty much as such places look, greasy, a little, but not in any sense dirty.

A part of the basement is also occupied as a labratory, where all the medioines are received and mixed by a competent druggist. This conveys a general impression of the arrange ment but the reporter, not content to rcBt with gener alities, after he had taken the dimensions of the establishment, proceeded, under the guidance of Dr. Collins, one of Dr. Schenck's assistants, to examine matters in detail. From this gontloman tho reporter loarned that THE MEDICAL STAFF, as at present constituted, consists of Dr.

P. L. Schenck, chief of staff Dr. Riejer, Dr. Diaz, and Dr.

Collins. In a few days, however, tho force will be further in creased by tho accession of Dr. C. M. Petty.

Dr. Riejer attends to six waras; Dr. Diaz six wards, and the smallpox patients in addition; Dr. Collins seven wards, and the Almshouse in addition; while Dr. Schenck takes the remaining ton wards, attends to the Nursery, and exercises a general supervision.

The assistants are all young men. Dr. Collins is cer tainly not more than twenty five years of age; Dr, Biojer lookB as if ho might be twenty four, and Dr. Diaz cannot bo over twenty one; Dr. Schenck may pos sibly be thirty two or thirty three.

In this connection, however, it is but fair to say that they all appeared not only to be gentlemen of intelligence, but fully alive to the importance of tho work in whioh they are ongagod. When talking of their patients to the reporter, they did not appear to be at all affected by tho fact that they were in moBt caseB riondless and poor; but seemed to recognize in them human beings, sick and suffering, demanding at their hands tho best treatment that en lightened thought could devise. THE MEST WABD VISITED was on tho male Bide on tho lower floor. There were ten patiente in it under the care of one nurse. The room waB remarkably clean in all respects, and owing to the admirable ventilation was entirely free from that heavy odor that usually hangs aronnd tho wards of a hospital.

This result is secured by having each ward run across the building, so that when the windows at either end are opened a current of pure air passes through it. The patients looked as sick people usually do not cheerful of conrse, but cloan and as comfort ablo as could have been expected under tho circumstances. Those who were out of bod were arrayed in a uniform suit of some stuff that looked like white can vass, and sat around either talking or reading the news papers ONE CHABACTEB, a RUBBian, evidently between 50 and GO years of ago, with an eye iu his head that Btill held considerable fire and spoke of a rambling youth, poured delighted over a romance written in his native tongue. The volume looked Bmall enough to be read easily in a day, but tho nurse said that the poor fellow had brought the well thumbed treasure to the hospital with him; had commenced reading it the day of his arrival and during every day of his sojourn which had now run up to nearly two months, he bad dwelt more or less upon its pages. ThiB book, and this only, ho oared to read.

Tho incident showed, however, that the poor outcast was not entirely without heart, and that even after a life of travel and misfortune he found his obief aud only do light in going bock through the pages of fiction, it might be, to the scenes of his childhood and the friends of his youth to hear in imagination the tones of his mother tongue again ringing in his oars. He had also amuaed himself by gathering all tho cuts from the illustrated papers rotating to tho visit of the Grand Duke, and had posted them all over ono side of the ward. His suffering arose from a disagreeablo wound on tho leg, but the doctor Baid it was recovering rapidly now, and would iu the course of two or three weekB more be well. In the second ward the general appearance of things was agjdescribed in the first. Tho samo kind of patients, the same garb, tho same colored bedclothes, the same kind of beds, the same shaped rooms, tho same articles of urniture and the samo indifferent looking nurse.

Indeed THE SAMENESS WAS OPPBESSIVE even to the viBitor and could not well have been exhilarating to the inmates. Outside the opon windows, however, birdB flitted among the trees and with their free songs Bent melody into tho sick. In thia room there was an opportunity given to examine some of tho articles of food. Ono poor fellow, whoso appetite was stronger than that of his neighbors had deferred the eating of his dinner until nearly one o'clook. The dinner consisted of some rather mysterious looking soup with a piece of decidedly coarse boiled meat in it, and a slice of very dark bread.

The soup and tho meat looked as if fit to bo eaten, but the bread did not look good enough even for the stomach of a sick pauper. It was coarse, black, and hard SO COABSE, SO BLACK, AND SO HABD, that in this as in other cases nothing but the most desperate pangs of hunger could Induce the patients to eat it. The doctors, are of course, not in any respect to blame for this state of things; what they have to do is well done. The supplies are furnished by the County and the County officers are responsible for their quality. It is, of course, an open question whether tho articles contracted and paid for aro actually furnished by the contractors.

There is a store keeper named Mr. Michaels, whose business it is to see that these gentlemen perform their duty, and it is the business of the contractors to see that Mr. Michaels looks after his part of the work. Whether all the links in this ohain of duty are strong and unrnsted is a question. The following is a list of tho regular ABTIOLES OF DIET allowed by the County to each patient 6 A.

M. One pint of coffco or more, half pint of milk, three slices of bread, and gruel. 12 Noon. Soup one pint or more, three slices of bread. 6 P.

M. Tea, one pint or more, one half pint of milk, three slices of bread and gruel. Extra allowances, such as breakfast, dinner and Bup per from physicians and stewards. Tables ordered by attending physicians. Along with the coffee and tea it win be seen that there is half a pint of milk allowed to each patient, but in every instance whore inquiry was made, the pationts denied having received any such allowance.

Tho milk is put in by the cook, and in most caBes does not sufiice to do more than color the coffee. When, howover, an extra quantity of milk and sugar is required for a pationt, it is prescribed by tho doctor and furnished by the steward. But it appears evident that if the ordinary allowance was furnished, there would be no necessity for special prescriptions of this kind. Complaint was made by ono of tho Eaqle'8 correspondents that THE BTJTTEB WAS BANCID, but inquiry, yesterday, elicited the fact that the patients on regular diet receive no butter at all. Those who are very sick, however, may get a little and the complaint may bo applied to that.

Tho butter shown to the reporter looked as if it would be dear at twenty cents per pound. What the County pays for it he could not ascertain. It is purchased in open market by the Snpply Committee. From tho second, through all tho other wards in the Hospital, tho reporter passed and found tho samo condition of affairs existing. Cleanliness and order reigned throughout.

The nurses were all on hand (one in every ward) and the physicians appeared to look sharply after every patient. There was but ono complaint, the QUALITY OF THE SUPPLIES and that did not by any means appear to be without foundation. Apart however, from this regular diet, it is but juBt to add that there iB an abundance of speoial stores placed at the disposal of the physioians. They are at liberty to prescribe brandy, wine, whisky, eggs, and when prescribed, these articles are furnished. Of course, these gentlemen appreciate the necessity of being economical, and when the regular diet seems sufficient they refrain from speoial prescriptions.

If (the regular diet be indifferent, they are not responsible it 1b furnished by the County. THE FEMALE WABDS are arranged precisely as the male aro. When full there are twelve patients in eaoh ward, with a nurse to each. Tho men are nursed by men and the women by women. The appearance of this section of the hospital, however, has unmistakable evidence of female presence.

While in most cases the waUa of the male quarters looked bare and uninviting here, there were numberless little knlck nacks scattered around. Pictures and figures suggestive of piety had a place in almost every ward. Many of tho old women unable to walk about appeared to spend their time in bed reading religious books. There is A PBTRBT who visits the hospital twice a week, and oftenor when emergency requires. Whenever a patient is about to die and desires the presence of a priest or minister one is sent for.

Tho men, the doctors say, however, are more philosophical under their suffering than the women. They do not make so much ado. about their trouble. In one ward, when tho reporter enterod, a poor woman was making a terribe noise, and insisted upon tho doctor's telling her whether she would get over tho night. He assured her there was no danger and she grow quieter.

Apart, however, he added that death was inevitable in a few hours. During the presence of the reporter in tho hospital one death and two births ocourred. Upon decease a rather rough looking stained wooden box is brought along, and in it the body is carried to THE DEAD HOUSE, which hi immediately behind tho hospital and within Albany, April 10, The following is a list of the bills introduced in the Assembly by tho representatives from Kings County, and what has been done with them sinoe they were introduced INTBODUOED BT MB.

M. RAILROAD ACCIDENT. Another 32xploaion of a locomotive, St. Louis, April 12. The western bound express train on the MiaBouri Pacific Railroad, which left hero at half past five o'clock last evening, collided with the Washington accommodation train bound east a short distance this side of La Clede, eight miles from this city.

Immedi ately after the collision, the locomotive of the express train exploded with Rreat force, scattering the frag ments of the bailer and engine in all directions. A few moments later an extra train from St. Louis ran into the rear of the express train, doing but little damage, however, as the speed of the train had been greatly slackened.

The collision occurred on a curve and resulted from the fact that the express train did not remain on the sidetrack until the accommodation train passed, as it should have done.

The Strakosch Btock operatic company, with Miss Nilsson as "the bright, particular (and solitary) star" appeared in the opera of "Martha" last night, at the Academy. The house was filled throughout, and among the audience were many who appeared to come with a predetermin ation indiscriminately to applaud upon tho slightest provocation. Tho distribution of characters comprised Miss Nilsaon as Lady Henrietta, MiBS Cary aB Nancy, Capoul as Lionel and Jaet aB Plunkett. The familiar measures of the opera (barring a cutting of seven lights of the last act) were sung in a manner which the well understood strength and weaknesses of tho Company suggest, and whioh thoir previous performances of the opera New York have confirmed. Only in the "gem" of the soprano part, the aria to which the English adoptation is "The LaBt Rose of Summer," did Miss Nilsson appear to exert herself to the height of her qualifications and of the occasion.

At that point both the star and Mr. Capoul acted and sang with fervor and rare excellence. Miss Carey who seemed under a sort of suppression of voice or manner, went lightly through her role, and in the single solo song which fell to her share, would have responded to the encore which was demanded, but for tho purely accidental advent of MiBB Nilsson from the other side of the stage. Jamet bore tff the moiety of the honors that fell to the male singers, though had Mr. Capoul's abilities been equal to his Bincere endeavors, he would have made a toil liant success.

The scenery was execrable, and tho or chestra or the chorus was sadly out of time. The opera to night is Hamlet. Olive Bbanob Chapteb.
