Guilty Of Wrong.

Some people have u fashion of con-
fusing excellent remedies with the
large mass of "pa'ent medicines" and

land block, on Gay street, corner oil
Vine, was taken up some days stree,
new and substantial curbiug put down
and lot Of new dirt filled in TO raise
the pavement. This is all very good
but what we have to say is that new
brick should have been laid down be-
fore this rainy weather. 1t is now in 6
condition almost impossible, and, as
there is no pavement on the other side
of the street, pedestrians are compelled
to split the mud of the street, ant
there is great deal of travel alopl
that way. We hope the proper authori
ties will see that the brick is put down
at once.

Two hours work Of two hands would
repair the bridge on Lauderdale
street. below Vance, but no steps
have yet been taken to that end. The
barbados have been removed, and
some passer has laid a few boards over
the worst holes, so he might cross
with a wagon or other vehicle, since
which a number have passed, but
ugly holes look dangerous all the way
over. Perhaps when some valuable
horse is crippled, and a bill Of dam
ages is presented to the authorities
they will bestir themselves toward
putting the crazy affair in passable
order. If it we're only the authori-
ties neCks and animals who had to
suffer by this palpable neglect, it
would be no matter.

Graves Dug Din.

In digging a ditch for the Mutual
storage company, at the corner Of
Main and South streets, some days
ago, the workmen found five graves
about two feet below the surface.
Walnut collins had been used and
we're in a tolerable state Of preserva-
ton, but the bodies had turned to
dust. This is the site Of the almost
forgotten old Morris cemetery, which
was abolished before the war, and no
whites have been buried there since,
But some negroes who died Of cholera
we're buried there in 1866. There are
doubtless many other graves on the
same lot.
