the choice Of ground and the selection OF the

was a fair one, and he would telegraph to Allen,

Allen meant fight, he had no doubt but that the
fight will yet take place.

THIRTEENTH STREET.
Highway to the Agricultural Grounds.

WASHINGTON, D. O., June 2s, 1875.
TO the Editor Of the National Republican,:
SIR: Permit me space to call the attention OF
the police authorities TO the disgusting scenes
which have to be witnessed daily, especially on
Sundays in that part Of the city commonly called
the division" from Twelfth to Fourteenth
street. south Of the Avenue, by strangers visiting
the Agricultural and Smithsonian grounds, and
by employees in tho Departments residing in
South Washington, who pass through these
streets in order to make short their WALK home.
Since the completion Of improvements in that part
Of the city II mas become great thorou ghfare,
owing to Its nearness to the beautiful grounds Of
the Smithsonian and Agricultural Institutions
and in many instances have seen gepileme In
company with ladies, on their EaIPpto these
grounds, have to return to the Avenut and take o
roundabout way Of getting there, In order to
avoid hearing the proisle aud obscene language
used by the lnebriated fesidentk ma and fe-
male. On last Sunday, from an carly hour In the
morning until late at mig ht, there was continual
uproaT, language being used that would make
demons shudder. Before writing made inqui-
Tes as to the cause Of this depravity and degrada
tiOp, and ascertained that It was due mainly to
the sale Of liquor on the Sabbath day. l also
learned that tners are a. least twenty-five unli.
eensed groRgeries within the boun dary Of the few
streets named, and that these persons have back
or side entrances through which they admit Gus
tsmers on Sunday, and sell to them as freely and
fearlessly as on other days Of the week, in open
violation Of the law. The Sabbath ought TO be
respected and this part OF the town reclaimed.
To reclaim IL IL is only necessary for the police TO
be more ofheiou. and enforce the law. W. B.

They say that on the evening in question Warren,
who is driver OF a feed wagon, was in the yard
Of her residence, and she stole Q whip belonging
him and set two savage dogs on him, and that q
workman Cf hers also assaulted him; hence he
threw the stone. Warren claims to have wit
of the statement,
