Ino answer to this question brings the com? mittee at once to the objects of their investi? gation, viz : The filthy accumulations of a oity com? posed of all tho refuse matters that col? lect after the wan.s of a people have been satisfied-the remnants ot butchers' meat, the pari ii RR of vegetables, the pluck in gs of poul? try, the washing of culinary and domestio utensils, the -decayed fruit, the spoiled fish, the bones, feathers, scales and other refuse ,p ir ts of cooked and uncooked animals, birds and fish, tho carcases of domestio animals, the sour remnants of the table and kitchen, the greasy and fetid water in whioh these remnants have boen fermenting-in short, all that collects from the satiated wants of man and nui mais, the excrement it ious matters from the stables and cowhouses, all these and an endless list of other impurities which mix with them and make up the foul burthen nf the odious scavenger's cart, go forth daily lo bo cast into the low, moist and muddy placed of tho city, to foment and putriiy till they saturate the air with uitny emanations, preg? nant with iiot)B,Be and deaths T?6 soil cf the oity so low and porous as to be constantly saturated with water, either from the rain which falls upon it or from tho tide watet s which ooze through it, furnishing the requisite Amount of moiBture tor a.ding de? composion, wants nothing necessary for the most rapid disintegration of this nitrogenoous mass but the requisite degree of heat. And this is at hand when the Bummer san shoots down in perpendicular rays its tropical heat. If we would have our city populous and wealthy we must make it healthy. In vain will we build railroads and remove the barriers of the ocean un ess we caa invite strangers to come among us with an assurance of health. Without this great blessing wealth itself will lose its attraction. And it will, therefore, be bettor for us first to spend money in getting the former, unless we can mako up onr minds to see ali that lost which we have been lavish? ing to secure the latter. I beg now, after what has been said in the foregoing report on scavenger offal, to direct attention to the following loiters to the com? mittee ol the Oity Council, charged with the duty of preparing a report on the origin and diffusion of yellow fever in Charleston, in tho summer of 1858. And first, that of Dr. W. T. Wragg, a member Of the previous administra? tion : . "In ??83, whon ? commenced my profession? al career in Charleston, I found the yellow fe? ver localized, and bounded by lines which, al? though they may have boen overstepped in some points, at times were nevertheless tolera? bly accurate Inuits to the infected districts. The southeabtern part of Old Charleston was the doomed -territory, and Water-atreet on the south, King-street on tho westra hue some what below Calhouu-street on the north, with Cooper Uiver on the east, formed its bounda? ries, lu those days, the house I now occupy at tho west end of Broad-street was considered ' safe. AU that port of tho city known in olden times as Harlestou Oreen, lying west of Rut? ledge,'andnorth of Boaufain streets, was still more exempt. Canuonsboro', still further' . north, was a safe resort for strangers, ptovided they did not go far enough up on the Neck to incur risk Irom country fever. The jame may be, said ?of Mazyckboro', Wraggboro', and Hampstead on the east of the oity, and also of the intermediate central ridge from the Citadel and St. Paul's Church, upwards, until tbe re? gion of country fever was reached. As lat? as 1838, ii was deemed perfectly safe for strangers to remain in the city in yellow' fever seasons, provided they did not go below.Calhoun, (then Boundary street.*') What is the state of things now?. There is nota spot below Magnolia Cemetery, inoluding that beautiful field of rest, that is free from danger in yellow fever seasons. Nay, more 1 .The suburbs of the city db not limit the ag fressive movements of the disease. Mount leasaut, Sullivan's Island, Potter's Mill, ali have shared in the ravages of the destroyer, and it may truly now be said that he walks a conqueror over the fallen ramparts of every one of these once guarded asylums. What changes in the local conditions of these places have been brought about? < The disease, in former times, entered the oity, or sprang up in it, bat did not intrude upon these secret re? treats until 1838, when, for the first time, the spell was broken and safety was no longer to be counted OD ID one, at least, ot the favored precincts. A friend and patient of mine, who had mar? ried a Northern lady, and brought up his children,-to. thal time, with estranged consti? tutions, being desirons of acclimating them, was advised to commence by spending the first summer in a house at the corner of Elizabeth and Judith streets. The season proved to be a yellow fever one, and be was ill of tbe disease. On the opposite corner, a boarding school was kept by the Misses Bl amy er, and a young- lady from Georgetown, who had been allowed to re? main, by advice of Dr. B. B. Simons, and who had been kept strictly confined within the house for three mouths, was taken ill and died, a most virulent ease ot yellcw fever. Other oases occurred in this neighborhood this year for the first time. Let us look around and Bee if any looal changes in the region about the honses may have had an influence in producing them. A year or two' before Mr. John Robinson had commenced the improvement of his lots front? ing on Judith-street, and on the square bound? ed by Elizabeth-street on the west, and Alex? ander street on the east, these lots were low, and were near the mouth or outfall of a long narrow marsh flat, whioh, commencing here, ran for an eigbth of a mile westward, as far as King-street. The natural effect of tho filling up of these lote was to ii ?j uro the drainage of all that part of the marah flat lying west, e. ?.?;?..?? .-..,*' ' "* For the improvement of hiSlots Mr. Robinson had used wood and other destructible material to a considerable extent, and had also trans? ferred, by m . ans of a temporary railroad, the whole of the mound of earth (a remnant of the old Line) whicli formerly stood at the corner of Meeting and Maty streets. From this time the exemption previously en? joyed by this region of the Neck from epidemic disease vanished. Sinee then, we have not only seen yellow fever claiming its victims there, but typha i, scarlet and other epidemic feverB have, from time to time, severely scourged it. About the tim e of which I am speaking, he eastern end ot talhoun-atreet was in the en? joyment of a reputation for health not inferior to any other portion of tho Neck. I well re? member that 1836, when the cholera made its visitation to Charleston, I only saw a single case on that part of the streot-, where the tree ebb and flow of the tide over the low grounds kept them olear of decomposable deposit. Within tbe last ten years the street MM been made up with wood and the lots flited with chaff, nawdubt and each destructible material, and now the neighborhood has lost its reputa? tion for health. . . Within tho last twenty years, during whioh time the work of filling up low places with garbage, sawdust, chal?, &o., has been, going on on Gadsden wharf, that pl??? has been Steadily becoming moro shd more unhealthy, till last sn ramer (1868) the work of death was so actively carried on that the population was almost deoimatod. -,.>'. J " Binoe tho fliliug up of Whit? Point Garden with ti o same destructible materials yellow fever has goth* toot hold ai ng tbe formerly healthy ipgoh of South, Bay, awdin 1864 oises Wore seen iront Captain Welgman's to the west ?>rh end of that street. ft The same observation holds godd of all the shore lines of the Ashley, and Accordingly we soo victima ol' tho disease on Leg aro, Gibbet), Tradd, Ac; and when you reach the low ; grounds exteudina from Tradd-street on the i south, to Beauftin on the north, and from : Franklin on the oast, to tho river on the west, (an area filled up with the scavenger's offal of < the city), you c >me to ono of the most infect- i ed of all the districts of the city. > Let us pause here forono moment to inquire what has taken placo in this neighborhood I likely to account, for this change iu its health- i fulness. You will remember that tnis very i spot waa referred to above as ono of those in < which even the stranger felt secure in former i times from yellow fever. Tbe obange that has taken placo is its conversion from a marsh < overflowed twice in twenty-four hours by pure I sea water, into a porous, putrefying, undrained < Boil, compo89d almost entirely ot the offal of 1 th? city. Let me refer to one single fact in the I history ot this (infocted) district, before I pass i on to other places, illustrative of the effcat J produced by the chantres I am referring to. i The Jail and Marine Hospital have ocoupied i their relative situations for fifty years. Daring I the who'o of this long period the hospital 1 has received and treatod yellow fever patients. I While I was a studeut I have taken my first 1 lessons io the diaoaso at the bedside of patients i who might bavo ul moat jumped from their < beds into the enclosure of the jail; but never I was the yellow fever known to have entered ! that building till 1852; sinoe then it ROOS into it as regular as into the houses of Elliott-street. How doos it fret there? In virtue of its conta? gious properties say the contagionisls. It that is so, I ask why it did not go m before 1852, .. since it was frequently in the hospital, prov ions to that year? if it, the disease, is contagious now, it must have been contagious then. If it foes into the jail by contagious properties in- 1 erent in it now, it should hive gone in for- 4 morly, in virtue of the same contagious prop- '<? erties. But we know, from the records of the t institution, that it aid not. Can wo think of , any other way of accounting fer the change? Let v.r. turn to the condition of things in tbe neighborhood, and we will find just such a change as has boon shov, n to have been the preouraor of the introduction of yellow fever into all the other locations referred to above. And the remarks mado in reference to the jail hold good with regard to the private resi? dences around these buildings. The scaven? ger's offal of the city makes the Boil all around. ***#.?# ? i Further north, on the same shore line, we i find along the indentations of Bennett's Mill i Pond the same changes, followed by the samo ( results ; while along the river margin the same state of Ulinga has been brought about. Hence, we now seo tho once safe resort in Can nonsboro' converted into one of the earliest scenes of epidemic invasion, Not a spot in that formerly favored region is u?w a ale; for the j low grounds in all the numerous creeks and marshes, which' then cut up this whole district, are now hot beds of fermentation, and give ont 1 their deadly gases in sufficient quantities to infest the entire district. I have thus traced the introduction Cf yelf? w ( fever into the former^ exempted portions of < Charleston, ia o very instance, around the entire 1 circumference of the city, following the faulty method of reclaiming low grounds, and the 1 criminal negligence of all precautions which < the experience of every country in every cli? mate teaches us to consider as indispensable. How far this sequence is to be looked upon as an example of cause and effects, or how much 4 of it is mere coincidence, I will no attempt to < determine. But even if we take the latter alter- < native and decide for the simple coincidence, it would seem to be part of the most reasona? ble prudence to put a stop at once and forever to such unwelcome conjunctions. ' Will our oity authorities have the courage to 1 face the responsibilities of thoir situation, and J give us (the community) tbo advantage of our - own dear-bought experience. The venerable , Dr. Johnson, in a letter to the writer in 1858, confirmed his opinion of 1807 after an ex- 1 perience and observation of fifty-one years. I As also the late Dr. H. Waring, one Of the oldest : practitioners of the city. Tho written experience of several of our now \ prominent medical gentlemen, who commeno ed practice forty years sin??, confirm the views ' and statements of Dr. Wragg. Among this ? number. Dr. Elias Horlbeck, who, uear forty years ago, was surgeon of the arine-Hospita1, - states the jail was conaidered healthy, and , that strangers and usacolimated persons could ' spend their summers on Book (now Franklin) street, contiguous to tho hospital, with inaniu- ; uity to the fever. The city authorities in 1859 did have "the courage te face tho responsibilities of their , situation," and gave, their constituents the ad? vantage o' the mass of experienced mtclli ?fence they elicited to guide .hem iu a wise egislation for tho general welfare, and on tho 18th of January, 1889, passed an ordinance for? bidding under penalties, for every offenoe com? mitted, a fine of twenty dollars, and the same ! for every day the mate i al was allowed to re I maia thereafter. Experience of ten years have testified to the wisdom of. the City Council of that day in re- , emoting the deleterious filling of low lands with the offal of the city. Charleston for five years has enjoyed a degree of health unpatal-, lelod, and wkiou no other oity on this eon ti nent has enjoyed. The entire decomposition of the putrid masses, elimina'i og their poison? ous and deadly gases, no longer exist. The danger to generate disease and endanger the publia health is at an end from what has been. Why renew the danger? Why amend the or? dinance that has proven beneficial to the whole oity, and allow these deposits to be made dur? ing the months of December, January and February ? Mr. Editor, tho whole community is interested in this subject; tho very business existence of Charleston is at stake. One yel? low fever epidemic will paralyze her BO com? pletely that it will require years for her to re? cuperate from it. Why, then, jeopar? dize the business, health and advance? ment of our city, by permitting the mud lots on Smith-street and elsewhere to be the re? ceptacle of the scavenger cart? Is it for the small addition of taxes to the treasury? Or ia it not more tor the benefit of officials interest? ed in the matter? The ordiuauco was amend? ed on the 25th of February, 1869, and passed. The writer of these artic'ea, at the present time, is prompted entirely for the general welfare of the oity. The great mass of statis? tics on this important subject were lost during the war, and very few of the present popula? tion, even in the medical profession, now have them. The records of the City Council w, re destroyed in the conflagration of Columbia. I presume that soarcely one of the present Coun? cil who amended tho ordinance ever read or even saw the reports that placed the ordinance of 1859 on the statute books of tbe city. At a more convenient season I will direct the attention of tho community and the City Fathers to the subject of interments of the dead within the city-another fruitful cause of disease to a city population. Our City Fathers should strictly enforce the ordinance, now in existence, on this all-important subject. Thanking you, Mr. Editor, for th? use of your columns on this all-important subject, I am, very respectfully, A TAX-PAYEB. THE ENGLISH MARKETS. The London Economist of March 6th re? ported the markets in the manufacturing dis? tricts as follows : There is but little alteration to notice in the fiosition of trade in the manufacturing d?a neta. Any change that has taken place has probably been for the worse. Cotton goods have ruled dull, owing to the disparity be? tween the price of the taw material and the manufactured article. Coal and iron havo ruled inactive, and moat departments of the hardware trades, although somewhat less brisk than last week, are steadily engaged. MANCHESTBB, March 4.-The market has continued quiet all the week, though prices >> are a shade firmer at the olov.o, oonsaquent more upon a decreased production than any improvement in demand. BBADBDBD.--There is no appreciable im? provement in the wool trade. Prices are tolerably firm, especially in choice hogs and wether*. There is no improvement io the demand for lower sorts and prices are weak. Io worsted yarns export morohants are still looking round, and making inquiries with a view to test prices. Two told yarns are a little. easier than last week. Altogether prices are rather unsteady. There is no improvement in th? piece trade. NOTTINGHAM.-.There was a moderate inquiry for yarns, and an increasing disparity in prices, the boat yarns suitable for thin market being exceedingly firm, and in special instances dearer. On the other hand, inferior yarns are more irregular, and obtainable at easier rates. Orders aro principally confined to immediate wants. Plain nets are stead/ at late prioes. The best silks ate firm in price, with an up? ward tendenoy. The lace trade coutmuoa in a prosperous oonditioa. HUDOEHSFI KL?.-Remainders of spring good s have been a good deal inquired for again, but manufacturers' ?to :ks of this kind ate now get i ting small. There is no partionlar chindo to note in tbe designs for winter trouserings which are now being shown. Quiet patterns, in neutral shades, are still likely to keep in favor, although attempts are bring made to introduce bolder designe in plaids and checks. Tho local wool trade of the week has been moving quietly, with only a limited amount of business doing. / _ ? . LEKDS. - Tho attendance of buyers hi the woollen doth markets has been rather limited. The tono of the market was moderately cheer? ful, and a Air amount of business was done, selections being made of all the omvent-going fabrics, and prices being steady. ROCHDALE. - The flannel trade continuo? imiet. Tho demand was dull for both plain ind f moy goods, and the aggregate quantity ?old was below an average. Yorkshire goods we e also in limited request. The pnoe of these goods, ss veli as those of flannels, were, upon '.ho whole, steady, though in one or two natanoes a lo worin* was submitted to in or ler to effeot sales. The rnanufac' ureis bought ipanngly of wool at last week's rates. DUNDEE.-There is no change in tows; there lontinues to be little doing in fine qualities, jut the indium and lower sorts are in active iemaud, and brin? full prices. lu jute there las bceu moro activity during tho past week ban for some time past. There has been a noderate demand for yarns during the week. Max yarns have boen rather flat, bot both tow ind jute kinds have boon active. There is no mprovement in tho general demand for linens, he only articles in which there is anything ike activity being some of the heavier desorip iona of jute goods. Our market for flax on he spot continues very firm, and as there is a iteady demand from consumers for tho supply >f their present wants, the small stocks in first lands aro boing rapidly reduced.
