The STREET CLKaSise.--Tbe weekly report Of the
City Inspector states that, during the week ending
Saturday 1854 loads of street dirt were removed BY
the Street Cleaning Buresu. Adding to this the loads
of ashes garbage and manure carted sway the total il
sweled to 35,S47. The expense Of doing this was 81
no g.. Between and two Thousand loads accord
ing to the above statement taken from each Of tho
wards. If the street cleaning operations Of the City
Inspector have been the city upon
he same system was pursued in Spruce street, we
can readily account for the dust plague with which New
York was yesterday visited
On Saturday last, Spruce street was scraped and
swept, the long accumulated mud being piled up into
young alps. Common seBse would nave told any one
but corporation blunderer, that then was the time to
cast the drtaway, but City Inspector Is not per-
vious to any such simple teachings. SO the great mod
heaps lay in tie street until the hoofs of horses, and
tered them about and the March winds dried them to
powder, and when the blast came yesterday Il lifted
the vile Dust and dsinty distributed it all over the
town. Spruce street is but type of the whole city.
Through the shameful course Of the City Inspector
who ever since last Samn er has been empowered 70
make contract with the lowest responsible bidder for
cleaning the streets, but has obstinatey reaioed from
doing IT, in order ha. our dirty streets nigh. farnsh

months whirrg through the air, to poison the life Of
our population.
The city yesterday was literally u1der cload. Ev-
erything, and everybody were embrowned with dast.
And such dust not the clean dirt of the country bu.
puIyerzed compound of all the reekiny abo nna,ioas

New Workers doomed to endure at the viii of City
Inspector Deavsn bnt then they have the high priv

horde of inspectors of street cleaning" those
fellows were only obliged to ply the hoes aud brooms
themselves with energy and persistence, We might
hope TO accomplish something in the way OF sanitary
reform. But we may never expect anything of that
kind until few City Inspectors have besn smothered
IL their own dust heaps. Mr. Delavan would 90 well
to cease telling how much dirt he has carted away
ard give us clean city for his stasrics while the
streets remain in go vile condition. only show how
long and how grossly he must have neglected his duty.
