A deer was killed in Limestone ounto, Alabama, recently, whi«h was shot fourteen years ago in the foot. The wound caused one toe to grow longer th n the other, and the track made by this foot was of a peculiar shape. For fourteen years huntsmen have been shooting at him, but he managed to escape until the other day. The rifle ball was found in the misshapen foot. Superintendent of Public Instruction, Bloss, submitted the question to the attorney general as to whether it was the duty of the county superin tendents to enforce vaccination ordinances, and in reply he says: I should say that the duty of enforcing vaccination regulations belongs principally to town, oity and county boards of health, and secondarily after written notice, to county superintendehts.

Grant has just reached the conclu* sion that General Fitz John Porter was deeply wronged by dismissal from the army, and has addressed an earnest appeal to Arthur to reinstate him. It is said the envious, jealous disposition of the great national mendicant has been overcome, and he has been induced to perform this duty, in hopes that Democrats may secure him a place on the retired list and pension roll. Poor Grant! General Porter is far his superior in everything that constitutes the man and soldier, and has been moat flagrantly wronged. Now let justice be done, whether Grant becomes a pensioner or not.

Republican papers of all grades were recently denouncing Democratic members of Congress for expressing dissatisfaction at Don Cameron Keif* er’s organization of the House com* mittees. And now the Half Breeds are complaining bitterly. They say the committees were formed in ac cordance with the dictation es Conic ling, Cameron, Grant & Co., and ma* ny of them refuse to serve. Venezuela Orth, the other day, asked the House to excuse him, and gave notice that he would prepare and offer a rosolution taking from the Speaker the appointment of committees.

The act of the General Assembly of Indiana, “ establishing a State Board of Health” provides that the Board of County Commissioners the Mayor and common council of incorporated cities, and the board of trustees of any town, the board of health of county, city or town respectively, “ except where a regular constituted Board of Health by ordinance of such city now exists, or may hereafter be created,” shall constitute the Board of Health of such county, city town respectively. The act also provides that such boards shall cmplete their organization by electing annually, in the month of January, a Secretary, who shall be a physician, and such secretary shall be the Health Officer of such town, city or county, respectively. As it is essential for the harmonious working of the machinery to be called into action by tike law mentioned, that all the boards of health in the State should organize for work at the same time, so that such can be prosecuted with-

out hindrance or delay, we request and suggest that the various boards of commissioners, city council and board of trustees organize by the election of a secretary, in conformity with the law, upon Monday, January 2, 1882, and that you immediately thereafter report the name and post office address of such secretary to this department on the blank form herewith sent you. If this work is done throughout the State upon the same day, it will greatly facilitate matters
