OUR STREETs.-Tbe putting up Of the
names of the streets Of our town is really a
good thing and does credit, sma II as the mat
ter is, 10 our spirited Council. Now. ye To-
cal tenems can spot fight or FIRE without
being personal, by saying that the affuir hap
pened next door to Mr.. So-and-so's; or upon
the South side Of the street where Mr.. What
dwels. A few lamps ior the
night will complete the matter.
HaaL O PITY u ls tnat our streets are so
narrow, and that when the opportunity was
afforded for one broad avenue it could not be
,yailed Of. We think this is the prime rca-
;on why the ladies do not walk ou: oftener
