..ne public authorities have lately reflagged one side of
street, and are now proceeding with the otter, doubtless
enormous expense. I will not stay to inquire whether
treat outlay were necessary, but will at once suggest whe-
t would not have been far better to have attended to some
poorer streets, not only as to ragging the foot-walks, but
paving the whole st,•e.et.
Ist a boon to the poor to have their street well paved and
