vicinity of onf office which we intend reporting
to the grand jury as a nuisance, for it is a most
villianous One; AVliat with that Golgotha of a
ditch and the accompaniments of the rniWed
old Wall immediately beneath onr nose, we
really cannot see how we shall survive the ap
proaching summer. Perhaps it is in hopes of
getting rid cfui sometime in July Of August
that the Know Nothings are resolved to let
these pestiferous scoiirces of mnlfttrs and efflu
vium remain to infect tlie Whole neig'shorliood
and poison the atmosphere of this quarter Of
the town.

sioners 4iave comment'ed filling the ditch With
Sand. We would return them onr hearty

that those thanks are due the grand jury who
