Brought, Ordt (Martin),

We congratulate the public upon 'the Resolution
of the Committee of the City of London, in 'opening
a new street from Picket-street through Lincoln's
Ina-fields, by way of Great Turnstile, into-Holborn,
which, we are surprised, has not before this been car-
ried into effect, as we ire sensible great benefit would
I arise/ and be derived, not only by the public, but the
city itself, in facilitating the disposal and letting their
ground and houses in that neighbourhood, which for
the most part have so long remained uninhabited ; tnd
will also, in our opinion, be one of the greatest im-
provements capable of being made Northwards in this
metropolis, from its connection with Blooinsbury
and the intended building towards Hampstead. • ,
