Tee Dewina Nursance is Fmst Avexve —About a week ago the attention of the authorities,was called, through this paper, to a grievous nuisance existing in First avenue, between Thirty seventh and Thirty-cighth streets. The nuisance, in the shape of a filthy and pestiferous dumping ground, still flourishes unabated, and from present appearances is likely to go on flourishing wun‘il the geveration of gome conta; malacy in its vicinity aronses the y people to such action as will force the backsliding authori- ties to do their duty. On last Wednesday, Mr. B. B. Chap- pell, Health Warden of the Twenty: first ward, made a re port to the City Inspector re 1g the mattor, and from bis statement it appears the fault lies partly with the Common Council and partly with the dirt cartmen, who are in the habit of dumping cellar dirt, &c , on tue street, in direct violation of the ordinance. A Pp look out should be had by the police after all such offenders, who ought to be promptly punished to tho full extent of the law. Tho present ordinance respecting dumping grounds rovides leet be. od Neg shall kong dumped soath s wenty-¢i street . Chappell suggests an ment ment to ordinance, by substituting Sixty-firat for ‘Twenty-cigth street, and making it read “no manure shall be dumped south of Sxty-first strect.’’ Will the Common Counct! endeavour to devote & small share of at- tention to this subject before it is too late to prevent the occurrence of @ pestilence ?

In the present case, however, I do not un- derstand this action to be founded on any claim for ¢amages arising out of the acts of the Sheriff. ‘The atatate of 1865 goes not place the responsibility either on the act of the Sheriff, ver ag the defendant supposes on the neg- lect of the Sheriff to act.
