The Streets.
Mn EDITOP-


Will you be so kind as to call the attention OF
the corporation, through the columns of your valu
able journal, to the desperate and dsgraceful con-
diton of some of the principal streets Of this city Z
Nassau street, particularly, presents an aspect OF
filth beyond anything have seen before in my life
The sidewalks are continually flooded with water,
on account of the cutters being allowed 10 remain
filed with ice, and the walks uncleaned, so that il
is utterly impossible to navigate the street without
wading over shoe in water and mud Besides this
there are any quantity of streets which are in equal
ly as filthy condition, and require the immediate
action Of the corporation in the enforcement Of its
ordinances. would also suggest the propriety OF
calling their attention 10 another and greater nui-
sance, to wit: the snow which is allowed to re-.
main on the tops of steeprooied houses to slide of
at Its pleasure, thereby endangering the lives OF
the community. Accidents are continually hap.
penins on account OF this negligence and without
the danger is instantly removed, your columns will
be overloaded with calamities that must inevita-
BILE ensue.

FRIEND BENNETT

FRIEND BENEFIT
1t is curious fact that Stores in Pearl street,
between Beekman and Chatham streets, are lower
than in any part OF the city.
Good Stores may be had there for $500, $500,
even lower than the same class of buildings let IN
Water street and the Swamp.
Large dwellings which cost 500, 900 are let for
$500 and $500 per annum, situated In Franklin
Square.
If these facts were more generally known, we
should have the place soon filled with wholesale
merchants, who are oppressed elsewhere by high
rents
There is some talk of the leather dealers emf
grating into Peck slip-from the same reasons.
Yours, respectfully, PECK SLIr.
