publication, and we IRE sorry to be
constrained to decline 1t. Al anony-

never be made '1knovinglya In the

proving The author There are many
reasons assigned why we are unwilling
To publish anonymous uomlnunlca-

editor himself, il generally held res
ponsible, for whate yer appears In bis

for many anonymous epistles, and We

f HANS ROW IN THE CoRpoRA-
rioNa--If IL Ii not, the street before IL
IL; and tile people are required to
make sidewalks, and do as other good
citizens. We would respectfully call
the attention Of these In authority at
the head of whom il our friend Cousf4
NAHp, that at tho foot Of Garrison lane,
people from the town are In the habit
Of throwing dead dogs, cats, rats and
ether verrnine on d vacant lot at the
corner; which poisons the atmosphere
Of that locality. This nuisance h,ls
for along time been permitted people
are under tho impression that The Cor.
roration ''lineh il on this side, and II.
anything y thrown on the other side
the law il complied with. This Is d
mistake. That portion OF the town is
in the Corporation, and no one has any
right to throw oifal even on tho Car
rison premises --beyond. The nuisance
has been complained Of long enough.
If two Or three persons can be nailed
against tho fence at that point for vio-
lating the law, we think 1t will be al
good example. We would also res
pectfllly call attention to the cutters
at the head Of Lafayette street---this
side ofthe Garrison gate. A nuisance
exists there which has caused persons
living in the Garrison to abandon the
enterance to the beautiful avenue, as
IT effectually blocks up the cute. The
nuisance at the foot Of the lane, and
the nuisance At the head Of Lafayette
street, eifectaally shuts out the Gar
fison---complaints have been made,
are made, but what is the use: the an
