aUKYLATD STATE ATTEES. Meeting of the Board of Public Works Tlie Oyster Question. (Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun.l Assapous, Dec. 6. The board of public works of Maryland held an important, meeting at the executive chamber today and transacted a good deal of public business.

The greater portion of the business considered related to ovsters and oyster dredgkig. Mr. Joseph B. Seth and Frank Wrightson, of Talbot county, were before the board in reference to illegal dredging in the Great Ciop-tank river. It was stated that depredatious are being committed in these waters by reason of the absence of properly defined lines showing where dredging is prohibited.

The board directed the establishment of a line to govern the oyster navy. Complaints were also made of violations in the Little and Big Choptank rivers, and a letter was received by Hon. Daniel M. Henry in regard to the depredations in the Little Choptank; also a teiegram from 50 tongmen in regard to the same. Captain Gordy.

of the oyster steamer Gov. Hamilton, was directed to visit the localities and assist the police sloops in arresting violators of the dredging law. A communication signed by State Senator T. S. Hodson.

John W. Tyler, Isaac Lawson, C. E. Moore, W. R.

Byrd, W. L. Crosweli, L. T. Dryden and other citizens of Somerset county was presented to the board by Col.

Wm. H. Legg in reference to alleged violations of the dredging law in Pocomoke sound. The steamer Gov. Hamilton was also directed to be sent there tor protection of the oyster beds.

The Somerset communication is as follows: "The undersigned respectfully represent that certain dredging vessels are almost daily engaged in dredging unlawfully in the waters of Pocomoke sound, awarded to Maryland by the late boundary commissioners between Maryland and Virginia, and by reason of the shallowness of the waters they must soon be exhausted. Pocomoke sound has from time immemorial been used by toagnien in the lower part of Somerset county as their means of livelihood, and it has been a prolific source of oyster supply, but unless the present depredations are soon brought to an end the oyster beds of the sound will be irretrievably destroyed, and the undersigned respectfully pray that one of the vessels of the oyster police force mar be sent to the Pocomoke for the purpose of arresting- all persons thus depredating in Maryland wafers." Col. Wm. Henry Legg, of the Maryland oyster commission, came to Annapolis in the oyster steamer Leila this morning to see Gov. Hamilton, in accordance with an appointment previously made, to exchanee views with him in regard to the contemplated changes in the oyster law, and especially that portion which relates to oyster police duty.

Col. Legg did not arrive until 11 o'clock, and the board of public works being in session he did not have an opportunity of consulting with the Governor at length on the subject. He, however, saw the Governor a few moments on the outside. The Governor stated that he had to leave on the noon train, and requested Col. Legg to meet him at Annapolis next Wednesday evening, at which time the Governor will be here.

Col. Leirg is anxious to s-et the views of the Governor as to the practicability and utility of the change before expressing an opinion on the matter. He considers that the Governor, being a practical man, can impart some valuable information on the question, which will enable him te report more intelligently when the matter comes up at a future time. Col. Legg thinks the greatest damage done to the oyster bars by illegal dredging is chiefly done at night, and he says the oyster bars should be protected as well at night as in the daytime.

He does not think there is a sufficient force at present to do this. The com-manJer of the police navy should be clothed with additional authority. The force now is merely a nominal head. The appointing power should be changed. Under the present auspices the inconvenience of getting the board together is oue of the objectionable features.

Col. Legg will suggest to the Governor the propriety of turning the sloops of the oyster navv over t-t the counties for their own local protection, an 1 also that he believes with a well-formulated system the sloops cannot only be ma-ie self-sustaining, but leave a revenue in the county trea-uries where they beiong. The need in this oyster-police syste is a more direct supervision and responsibility. The board of public works directed the secretary, Mr. James Briscoe.

to inform Mr. H. A. Ramsay, of Baltimore, the contractor for the new police steamer Thomas J. Keat-ins.

to have the vessel at Annapolis next Thursday for inspection preparatory to its acceptance by the State. President Gowen. of the Reading Railroad. BALTIMORE. FRIDAF.

W. H. Cole, called on Mayor Latrobe yesterday and complained that the stree-clean-ine department was only giving them compensation for five days in the week, while thev claim that the ordinance provides that thev shall be paid for the full week. Mr. B.

E. Smith, street cleaning commissioner, states that it is Decessary to curtail the time in order to make the appropriation hold out. aa 1 that this month was the best time to reduce the time, as tnere is less garbage to be removed this month than in any other durine the year. It will be remembered that an ordinance was passed by the city council some time fi ting the pay or garbage men at $18 per week for a man, horse arid cart, and the street-scrapers, ace, at per week. The garhasre men c'aim that they were to be pai trns sum wnetner tney were given work all the time or not, or whether they detained by bad weather from working-.

The city solicitor decided that the ordinance only meant that the men should be pai 1 at the rates na-ned, and did not mean that they wore to be paid whether they worked or not. The committee were fold bv the mayor that he supposed the trouble wa3 that the apnropria-tion would not hold out if the men were kept on full time. Neither the street department nor any other department of trie city government had the rignt to pay money out not ao-prooriate 1. He would, however, consider the matter and see what the trouble was. The present year was nearly ended, and he supposed the council would correct the matter for the coming year.

The house was curiously gazed at by people passing, but there was an ao-senee of the crowds about the locality, which vn-' n.

notable foanre when the bodies of the children lay there last week. The public interest was evidently not so deeply stirred by the death of tho mother as by that of the children. Dr. Alex. Tinsley coroner, impaneled a jury of inquest, which i-endered a verdict that Mrs.

A change of great importance to merchants has been made in regard to third and fourth classes of mail matter, though no official notice has yet been received of it at the Baltimore postoffice. The rate for third-class (printed matter) is one cent for two ounces, and for fourth-class matter (merchandise) one cent for one ounce. Some certain kinds of printed matter in bulk, such as labels, photographs, tags, have been going as third-class printed matter at one cent for two ounces. The department rules now that while singly such things may be classed as printed matfor and tro at one cent per two ounces, ye in bulk they become merchandise and should be classed as fourth-class mail matter, requiring one cent per each ounce, or part thereof. Consequently such things as labels, tags, chromos, photographs, valentines, blank bills, cards, lithographs, if sent singly or in such small quantities as to have no great value as merchandise, still goes as third-class matter, at one cent per two ounces; but when sent in such quantities as to have a value as merchandise, it becomes fourth-class matter, and is subject to one cent postage per ounce.

This is not an actual increase of postage, but simply a transfer of certain mail matter from one clas to another, thousrh the operation is such as to cause a virtual doubling of the rates of postage on that particular matter.

"An OH Subscriber" asks "if a man and wife have money in bank, and he assigns his right to her, can any one take it from her at his death?" A man may validly convey properly to his wife so as to make it absolutely hers, provided the conveyance was not made in prejud ce of the rights of creditors existing at the time of said conveyance. "A Constant Subscriber" asks "if a justic of the peace has any right to refuse to issue a warrant against a police officer (or any other person) for assaulting and beating a citizen because the complaint was not lodged with the justice imme diately upon the commission of the offense charged?" If the complaint is made in proper form within a year after the time at which the assault is said to have been made the justice is bound to issue his warrant for tho arrest of the offender, provided that the facts of the charge as sworn to before him give him reasonable ground to believe that the party accused may have been guilty of the act complained of.

In a few months the Tetter was entirely well, the Mercurial Poisoning all out of my system, and I was a well man and due only to Swift's Specific, All like sutlerors should take it.
