PISTOL FIRING. - For some week or two past,
some one living in the square, bounded by
Prince, Duke, Pitt and St ;Asaph streets, has
been in the habit Of firing off . pistol, the ball
from which has, in two or three instances, en-
tered the back room Of the dwelling Of Mr. J.
?. Jordan, who lives opposite St. Paufs
Church, and yesterday one Of them struck the
wall near where member Of the family was
sitting. As it IS not supposed that the firing
is with malicious intent, it is hoped that this
notice will cause it to cease, as it is improper
and very dangerous. s...alI aa2eo4 -
