‘On motion of Mr. Crabbe, seeonded by Mr. | Davy, and carried:

Ordered, By this Board that for the future no | patient shall be admitted to the smallpox hospital except on the order of the Mayor as Chairman of the Board of Health;

Further Ordered, That one or more of the Health Officers of this city remain in the Hospital, making ful! reports daily tothe Health Officer, Dr. Johnston, at the Board of Health Office, who shall duly make aji necessary reports to the Board of Health;

Further Ordered, That all Health Officers doing duty in the city make their — to Dr. Johnson at the Board of Health Office,”

Break WATER DESTROYED. —The tro most exposed breakwaters in the Dominion were considered to be the ene at Souris aud the one at Cow Bay, ©. B. This opinion has proved | to be well founded, for the former haa svffered | considerable damage this fall, while the latter | in the rec-nt Saturday and Sunday storm has been completely destroyed. These break- waters cost the ominion Government a large sum of money, and to the interests in the legalities where they were built, they have | proved of immense value. The fact of the one | being badly inj cool and the other entirely carried away is anything but welcome news. |
