There la still much complaint of the blockade occasioned by the crowd that usually assembles at the south east corner of Hargett and Wilming ton streets, especially on Saturday. This seems to be a general resort for a packed crowd, so that it is almost impossable for pedestrians to get along without leaving the sidewalk and taking to the street. This should not be. It seems that the pavements should be kept cleared of such ob structions. We hope the police will take charge of the matter. It has ttten frequently alluded to.
