The ending Of all the speeches OF one OF the most
celebrated orators in Rome, whatever the subject
on which he spoke, used ever to be-"but now J
say, Carthage must be destroyed"
Many subjects are started daily, by able writers,
in the newspapers, editors and others, on the sub
lect of city improvements and their constant mot
to ought to be, let the subject be whatever II may
"But first let us have clean streets"
Little do the city authorities know II they are NOT
aware that the pivot on which their existence, as
Directors of the municipality" depends. is the
broom of the street sweeper
IL was on the rocks of New York streets that the
native party made shipwreck. They paid no atten-
ton 10 the breakers, which from the Herald and
other prints well disposed, roared at them. They
persisted most ingloriousy in the Maelstrom OF mud
Is Let our present efficient Mayor refect-not as 4
Mayor, but as a citizen Would he like his health,
his comfort, his property, destroyed by the negli-
gence Of others And does he hatter himself that
others will put up with negligence on his part? He
is no fool.
The streets are in better, far better condition
than they have been before for long time. But
are they in as good condition the streets in Phi
adelphia and Boston And yet they ought to be in
4 better condition. For will the corporation of New
York assent TO their city being inferior, in any point
of view, TO that Of these smaller and less significant
cities or would they only CAIN the superiority Of
their city in the matter OF dirt
Again | say-the whole city crles-"Let the
streets be made and kept Clean"

though very great nducement to the lover of thea
trlcal performances, is not the only one, for the
sceneres, dresses &c, are all of a very costly and

Beacon COURSE, iloRoKEN YESTERDAY There
great cry but precious little wool as regards
sport ng The grand match between James X. Polk
and J. c. Calhoun did not come of, in consequence
of mutual lameness. 1t appeared that among the
sporting circles such was likely to be the CASE con-
sequenty the attendance was rather limited, and the
sport in unison Indeed, it was thought previously
that there would be no show at all-nothing for mo.
ney But such was not the case. The proprietor
when he knew that the "grand match was not
coming off, directed that only half price should be
charged for admttance to the different parts Of the
ground THIS is as it should be--indeed, as Tar as
sport went the whole affair might well have been
pu, of altoge Their. Such things ruinous TO sport
There canbe no confidence that matters announced
WELCOME of if these things are repeated time alter
time.
The only attempt at sport offered, was purse of
some 500, between Gen. Dunsam's b nj. Fanny
Jerks, and Mr.. Bridges ch. h: Robin, Every thing
having been arranged TOR this match, the parties
making up their weight, &c., they went forth. At
the commencement OF the first mlle Robin took the
lead, which he maintained some two or three
lengths in front to the quarter IN AS He kept thus
70 the half. where Robin was up. In l:33 Fanny
went in 'front.' and took the lead some five lengths
IN front, which she kept home, coming in much in
h. same position, completing the first mile thus In
5:0l.
Second Mlle-At every attempt OF the driver OF
Robin to go forward, he broke consequently Fan
nv came in almost distance in front, easy, in 3:03
The third mile was, as the Irishman said, dino,
repeated, the same over again, in Sill
The fourth mile Robin somewhat decreased tie
space between him and his leader. but with not
much effect, and went of at somewhat better rate,
but it was not with much effect, and the other came
in in sos
THE. fifth mile was much the same. The Genera!
appeared 10 know he had it all his own way, and
acted accordingly and made the next mile in 3:0i,
winning The purse
The total time made, according TO the Judges, in
the five miles, was 1924 Some on the club stand
made it 1870, and 1921, which caused some grum-
bling.
