LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.


\ NuIsauce.
The citizens of the First district living
out on Common street and IT'S vicinity, are
complaining loudly of serious nuisance,
caused by the nightly custom OF the mana
GERS of the St. Charles and City hotels in
emptying the contents of their privies into
the cutters, and washing the flth down
Common street This habit has been Gus
tomary for years, and all attempts to have
the evil corrected have been defeated. AS "A
general thing, the street commissioner has
u gang of men at work early every morning,
cleaning ont the cutters, and forcing these
hotel eXcrescences through by the back
part of the town, but sometimes the men
so employed have other duties to perform,
or are late or negligent, and at such times
the etfluvia arising from the cutters is in-
tolerable. There have been frequent in
stances of their neglect of late, and any
early-riSing pedestrian on Common street,
from Basin to Baronne street, where the
ground is lose, on the time III question. will
bear evidence to the terrible stencil of the
cutters. Anticipating as we well may
more or less sickness this summer, the au-
thorities should be brought to understand
the nature of this nuisance and should be
required to correct it before it is too late.
