"The Smoke Of Our Torment, ,:

ssThe Smoke of Our TOrment.''
M. Editor:-Must 1t ascend forever and
eVei?" l allude to the tar boiling establish
nent, corner Of North Capitol and streets,
heretofore attacked by enc OF your correSpon-
dents. To quiet our objection, we were as
sured, last month, that an injunction would re-
move the nuisance within few days-then
that no Injunction would be needed, the pro-
prietoTs having kindly promised to discontinue
It on or before August list. Thus far In August
it has been at its deadly work, unceasing, by
day and night, not even permitting us breath
of pure air on Sunday. We are tortured at all
times. From disturbed sleep, we often wake
nearly suffocated. At my residence, adjoining
square, south, it Is necessary to keep closed all
the northern windows, even, of course, in
warmest weather, still experiencing but little
protection, for the smoke ,ciH enter. Six or
eight houses in my immediate Vicinity have
been vacated, on account OF this objection; they
stand to-day untenanted; no one will rent them
at any price. Others, or all of us, must 90 soon.
The evil is not limited to the close neighbor-
hood Of its origin, but friends, whose residences
are several squares distant from NINE speak of
the great Inconvenience felt by themselves.
Therefore, / write for thousands VIII our
united voices avail ought? or must We like
our unfortunate brethren Of Memphis, to pre-
serve health and life, fly from our homes?
There Is one sentiment, strong in this doomed
region: The pOiSOner of the air Is murderer.
