l fully indorse the closing paragraph of
this piece, stating that 'fSavannah's beau
tiful avenue should have a more eslphon-
ious name, the name of the street is sure
to be changed some day. Why not do it
now?" 1 would ask why not? After sew
eral years of talk we have changed South
Broad street to Oglethorpe avenue, now
let us have Bull street changed to Park
avenue and change the name of another
street to Bull street-one not so prominent
1 do not think Bull square," as suggest
ed by "Historicas," would be euphonius
as it might suggest a COW pasture. We
have a Houston and a New Houston
street Why not change the latter to Bull
street and avoid confusion. We wish to
remember Col. Bull for his services by
naming street after him, but as he was
unfortunate in having such a name, let us
give it to a less prominent street than the
finest one in our city. Philadelphia is
not considered a very progressive city,
and yet notice that a board in that city
has changed the names of l, $50 streets dur
