City Ordinances-Ashes-G sc.
JAMES GORDON BENNETT, ESQ.,.
| observe by notice in the Sunday Hernld, that
the Captains OF Police are about to enforce the ord
nances for their nfracton OF throwing ashes &c.
into the street. This is well enough SO far as it
goes but will not, cannot, cure the evil. Notices
will not do it-ncver have done it; and unless the
Captains OF Police are more observant, and more at
tenve to their duties than the Street Inspectors,
(Which doubt,) we shall be no better of than we
have been, because the thing most wanted is pro-
per system in collecting ashes, garbage, &C. That
proper system we have never had. Either the per-
sons who have the management of this department
have not the brains to devise one, or else they are
too lazy and careless to do it, or they are not allow
ed the means. Be the reasons good or bad, the
thing is not done as 1t ought to be done, and until
system Is put In practice IN which proper carts are
constructed--proper men empoyed--and every
house called at, and the ashes and ofal taken out
by the men, and the vessels returned instead OF
ringing bells and blowing horns, 1t can never be
done well; Ordinances and paper bulets,-even
with the addition Of Captains and the whole police to
boot-wil not cure the evil, without being furnished
with the proper and regular means of getting rid of
ashes and offal without the necessity of throwing
them into the street The first thing them the Cor
poration has to do, and which hope they will do,
IS, to adopt new and improved system for collect
ing ashes and offa, and then the necessity and ex-
pense OF notlces, police, Nc, will be unnecessary
Will you urge this branch Of reform as well as 9TH
ers on our city fathers In SO doing, you will confer
favor on J. M

JAMES GoRDoN BENNETT, Esq:
Can you inform me and our city fathers, whether
Raflling tor articles comes under the appelIaon and
denomination OF gambling or not II strikes me
that II does Is 1t not game of chance Is raf-
ling less iniqultous and criminal than card or OTTER
games that are prohibited to those who take out IL
censes for taverns, &c.l Are not games with dice
among the prohibitions in granting licenses
As great numbers are feeced Of their hard earn
lngs by Railing, and IT II comes under the denom-
nation Of gambling, as | think il does, allow me TO
call the attention OF those whose duty il is to the evil
andto put stop to IT lnstanter ty takingaway the Ii
cense from every person and house where rafting is
practlsed, no matter what the articles raled for
