|. Messrs. Fditors,-The communication Of
your correspondent, "Sub Urb," calls at
tention to an evil Of no small magnitude il
our city authorities do not remove it before
the summer suns have evaporated the putrid
mass into the dread. malarial molecules,
which cause diphtheria, typhoid.feyer,
spinal meningitis, sc. The frogs and mos
quitoes could be put up with, but when we
know that these dread diseases are spread
by Just such filth and foul atmosphere, it is
true that the whole public calls aloud on the
Board OF Health to abate the nuisance. Not
only are the residents of Fifth and Sixth
streets to dread this filthy rayine, but the
whole population of that section Of the city
north OF Broad street, for there is an addi
tional element to produce disease not men.
toned by "Sub Urb." 1t is the OPEN
SEWER from Sixth street down to the creek.
Into that sewer are emptied all OF the con-
tents OF the water-closets and private sew
ers from Second and Leigh down to Tenth
street, and every week others are being
added from the many new buildings going
up in that section, and it does not take a
medical mind to perceive that such causes
will inevitably produce disease over large
extent of territory. TAXPAYER.
