Mr.. EDITOR - a.
In your paper OF the l4th instant, the
proposals for grading Chapel street
were pub lished and the contract was
awarded by the street committee to Mr..
D. Molony, he being the lowest bidder.
Now, sir, will you please obIige pro-
perty holder on said street, whose in
terests are deeply involved by the grads
ing of said street. by suggesting through
your paper that some co pete t erson
be authorised to superb .ant YORK
who is not at present conneC with
the city council, or any city Office, SO
that tho very plans, specifications, &c,
of the city surveyor, - be carried
out I know that the + + the sur.
veyor are satisfactory tt I'll Of tbe pro-
perty holders on line of the street, but
am sure that his time will not allow
him to give the work that attention
which the nature and Importance of it
requires therefore, unless some COM
potent supervisor in the pay of the city
directs the work, [ cannot but feel that
there will be much to complain of. l
would also suggest that you call atten-
ton to the importance of curling aud
paving the cutters at once. Grading
the streets without it would be entire
loss of amount expended, as the first
heavy. wet weather would result in
making the whole street impossible,
the sidewalks would become level with
the roadway, and the work so injured
that before paving could be done the
whole work would have to be shaped
over again at an additional expense of
thousands of dollars. A suggestion to
the committee on streets, with your
views as a practical man, would no
doubt be considered and much future
expense and trouble avoided

Room FOR IMPROVEMENT. There i.
any amount of room for improvement
yet in Norfolk, especially in regard te
the cleaning of streets and alleys. Many
of the streets need small amount of la
Dor bestowed upon them, and many
alleys thorough cleansing of filth that
has for weeks accumulated upon them.
We hope this suggestion will be improv-
ed by the exercise of energy in the re-
moval, as far as possible, of all noxious
matter from our midst.

by party of rowdies who paid no re-

understand the officers of the law paid
no respect to them, which fact should
be considered by the Mayor; if he is to
have officers who are employed by the
city to preserve peace and ord er, and they
are too timid to make an arrest because
they are rowdy set who seem to in
timidate officers by their fighting quail
ties, it would be well to have those who
would make arrests. There is certainly
