,s8 oBsTRUcrING THE s1DEwALKs.-The
practice of obstructing the sidewalks with
boxes, barrels, crates, &C., has become quite
general, and is a source of great annoy
ance to pedestrians, who are compelled to
crowd through them, at the immient risk
of torn or creased clothing, not to mention
the many other Inconvenience. "A few
years ago the ordinances in relation to this
matter were rigidly enforced, and resulted
in the almost entire discontinuance of the
practice. The ordinouces, however, are.
now totally disregarded, and merchants APP
pear to claim it as right to institute a
blockade of the sidewalk whenever it suits
their pleasure and convenience. IL some
times becomes necessary, in receiving
goods, to have them ON the sidewalk, but
there is no excuse for leaving them in the
same place for days at time. We know
that the authorities would receive the
thanks of citizens generally, were they
to enter into vigorous" enforcement of
the Ordnancein relation to the matter.
