lion Dollars per annum for vol having orr stree.
cleaned. Half of this sum is VIGOROUSLY squan.
dcred in the fulfllment Of corrupt bargains nnd
to subserve personal and party ends. A re-
sp0nsible association offers to contract and giTo
security for the thorough and frequent removal
Of all dirt, ohsl and garbage. from orr City for
$500, OsO per aunum; and they Will convert it
sll into fertilizing material and thus rapidly
and vastly benefit our City by increasing the
product of food in orr immediate vicinity. md
thus diminishing the cost OF living here. 1t Is
perfectly notorious that ilalf Million per an
mum may be saved by contracting with this or
| some similar company, while tho Indirect,
prospective advantages Of so contracting arc
very great: yet nothing can be done in the de-
sired direction, because the interest Of the con.
federated thieves who control our Municipal
affairs would suffer thercfrom. VIII the Com.
mittce aforesaid look into this matter, ADD sec
justice done tosur Taxpayers
III. We have the most expensive, useless cor
rnpt, disgraceful Market system that the world
ever knew We are confident that Sodom in her
worst days never saw lis equal in wicked nb-
surdity. What we need is one great Pnb'ic
Market, conveniently located for access by ran
and by water, whercto every producer of meats,
vegetables fruits, &c, &c, may freely bring
whatever he grows TO sell, and dispose oi II 7"
dealers Or consumers a. he may think best. In
such market. il CHI be fair 10 charge each
seller sixpence Or 50 per day for shelter, stand
ing-rOom, &C.: but there slould be no exclusive
privileges, and no favor should be shown 10 fore
sta.ers. Instead Of this, We have nearly dozen
apologies for Markets, but one OF which (Wash-
ngton) fulflls in any degree the purposes OF
genuine Market while most Of the residue are
wretchcd rooAcres, parcclcd oat into very poor
meat-shops, oyster-stani5 anil grcen-grocerics,
wherefrom Aldermen aud other Municipal shvs-
tcrs c0ntriyc 10 iich 2 few thousands a the cost
Of ten times "a much 10 the public. Several a
these ought 20 be forthwith indicted q public nui-
sances aud abated by due process oilaw. They
at once disgrace our City and rob il, ~ any orc
who has ever looked through a rtdi market must
know. Every one Of them except Washing
ton should bc directly sold 10 the highest bid
der; aud Washington should follow suit Just 80
soon as new and proper Market ccnld be built
on some more central and spacious site. Al
this In, been shown up from year 70 year; yet
no step i taken toward amendment because
such step would curtoil The plumber Of tbs Mum
cipal thieves. Nay: We are actually on the
point Of hgying one or two more al these
wretched apologies for Market erected, and
heavy additional load thereby saddled on our
eroannc taxpayers; when there is no more
sense in building another oi these Oyster and
cabbage stands than FOX erecting a Municipal
grog-shop, and nobody wants one but the
thieves, who will fch hall The pretended cost OF
