To the Edition. of the AieraRdrjd Gazette:
In reference To the potsto thrown INTO tn {
dwelling of gentleman. living at the lower
end of Fair fax street, have to state that The
fs,nily WAS considerably alarmed by the vlo-
lent crash ut the time, which, on examination,
proved to DO pane of glass smashed to atoms,
by n missile in the shape of potato. rs stated
The pane go broken was near the dressing
bureau in the second story OF the house, and
tho particles were s. altered nbou. in that vicin-
ity Had any Que boon present ~ the time. as
is not unusuVl at such al hour, i Is probable
they mig have been seriously injured IN tn 2
face or Dyes by the flying fragments.
This rotate WAS thrown either from Ia"
street or the adjoining lot md the opinion is
entertained that il was malciously done
The party who committed tho &C. Is hereby
informed that if such Outrages are repeated,
and anything like fair chance occurs to do SO,
q missile OF heavier metal than n potato will
be thrown in return by a force too, that may
,rove that somebody is hurt.
Tho oofofa brick building in the lot adjoining
(under charge OF the writer) has been nearly
strip ped of the shingling thereon by some mn.
night dcpredator, no doubt to supply himself
with kinding wood II saves cash when pro-
cured in this economical way. Tho party en-
gagged in this operation is warned that, ii de-
tected in the act, the right Of seli-protecti1n
will be promptly exercised. in n way, too. that
will be ne promptly undorstoo Z.

To the editor of tie .Aiecaadria Gazette

To tie editor of tie AiecanClrm Gazette:
[ am glad to see the condition of Henry
street brought before the City Council at last
Can anything be more unjust than giving VI
the whole length and breadth OF street en-
tpey to railroad company, when citizen:
who own property there are greatly Injured
by it, The street is so entirely ruined that nc
one will purchase property on il at any price
at the same time property holders there are
required TO pay IN unreasonable tax for the
same, and pay to keep it in condition for the
railroad
II "Vertas" owned one loot OF ground on
that street he would soon see the proprlety OF
Ievyng tax, even OF one cent, for every pas
senger to be paid by the railroad company Tor
the use OF the street, which would bring a
revenue to the corporation, and enable them
to repair it. Are citizens required to give w
their property without compensation more
than persons who are paid by the railroad com
panirS for the privilege OF making Il road
through their lands?
If the corporation Is SO liberal ~ to give Il
part of the city to railroad company, they
certainly should not make citizens suffer for 1t
by laying heavy tax upon them Tor the same
Hit is considered pleasure to see heavy trains
pass by carrying everything 10 another market,
it is a great mistake. when ruination Is on the
track.
am greatly in favor of railroads, also.
