B PASSENGER, AGITATE FOR CLEAN STREETS. To tar Rorror ov THe HeraLp:— A short time ago there appeared in your “Complaint Book” a suggestion im the interest of cloan streets well worthy of being put into operation. It was to bold mass meetings in difforent parts of tho city, to bo ad- dressed by prominent citizem@, and thus arraign the guilty officials, As I have charge of tenoment prop- erty in the Sixth ward 1 know, by personal experi- ence, that the terriblecondition of the streets in that locality bas ngt been misrepresented, ‘Thinking that perhaps the Commissioners aro incredulous, and, hike ‘homas of old,'will not believe whut their own eyes do not see, I will offer apartments, rent free, in Mul- berry streot, to any or all of thom, and they will thus have an excellent opportunity of jndging of the bealth. fulness of living in the midst of accaying animal and vegetable matier which bas beon.for months accumu- lating. HUUSE AGENT. HOW THE STREXKTS ANE NOT CLEANED, New Yorx, March 31, 1877. To tux Epiror ov tne Herat. Hoping that your complaint column will yet have the long wishod for effect upon tho street cleanipg officers, I bog you will give notice of the following:— If your readers had strolled up West Broadway thia morning, at nine'o'elock, from Reade to Canal street, they would have seen about twenty men hard at work sweeping up into small piles the accumulation of filth of the winter, At halt-past three PM. theso piles are yet unmolested by the dirt carts, There is prospect of a storm; the bor:zon 18 dark with clouds. Is it jossible the officers are going to leaye the rest of tho job for the storm, and whon to-morrow comes and tho piles vanished by rain draw their puy for carting. Tho same process was observed last OY igs’ POLITICAL ANTAGONIST. BOARDING HOUSE KEEPERS’ TROUBLES, To rue Epiron or tne Hrratp:— No class of people suffer more at the present ‘hard times” than boarding house keepers, and believe me (a8 I speak from experience and also from what others in the same business have told me) no — in bi ness are 80 imposed upon. ies looking for board take advantage of the cry ‘‘hard times’? and grind tho oor housekeeper down to the last cent in making a gain, and then ‘expect the bost the market will afford, gas and fire thrown in, of course; also furniture and carpets, use of them. I tell you, Mr. Editor, we do not make, at the prices people pay nowadays, living. Mrs, PETTIBONE, NATIONAIQGUARD LAW, To rue Epiror or tre Herap:— 1am the only support of a widowed mother, and I do not happen to have the opportunity of earning a largo salary, being a minor, therefore I am unable to keep pace with the necessary expenses arising from belonging to a regiment. Tho understanding was when I joined that business detention or sickness was sufficient excuse tor being absent from parades or drills. Igave the former excuse for being absont from a parade on one occasion, and on avot! sion for not gomg to Creedmoor to practise which pleasure I cannot afford to indulge in, My o: cuses were well founded, but they took no notice ot them. They went through a ceremony called court murtial and fined mo for each offence; and I had no money to pay the fine, so t! order of arrest inst mo: and harassed beyond bearing by the Marshal for the purpose of confining me in Ludlow Street Jail. A VICTIM. THE CROTON WATER QUESTION. To tHe Eviror ov THe HERaLp:— In your issuo of the 28th ult, I noticed an explana. tion given by Commissioner and Chief Engineer Camp- bell of the scarcity of water which must act like sooth. ing syrup on those people who pay an tucrease ot Cro- ton water tax overy year in proportion to the decrease of Croton water and the dangerous disadvantages arising therefrom. We are very generously told by them that tt is only in isolated cases any scarcity it experion 4 Chief Engineer Campbell himsell lives iu a district where, during last summer and tall, u ion did not rise above or even as high as the kitel floors, and now not higher than the second story at night. ‘According to their idea isoiated cases must mean wholo blocks, where the th and lives of hundreds of thousands of people are enuan- gered by that excellent supply of water given them—on the maps, &c., of the engineers. I can substantiate the truth of these assertions by ocular demonstration if the Messrs, Campbell so desire. I trust you will give this space in your “‘Compiaint Book’? for the ben- efit of these gentlemen. D To tne Epitor ov tax Heravp:— 1 see some of your correspondents are making in- quiries in regard to waste of Croton water, &c, Why not ask Commissioner Campbell hew it came about that be allows the steamships to have charge of t! hydrants and run all the water they please? This has never been allowed by any former Commissioner, nor by the Croton Aqueduct authorities when they had ex. clusive control of the supply for ship ON: 0 KNOWS, W FILLING THE THEATRE AISLES, To tnx Enrror or tHe Hekatp:— L attended the Fifth Avenue Theatre Saturday even- ing, and occupied a seat on second row ‘‘balcony.” I noticed the sceps of the centro aisle crowded with per- sons using the samo for seats. I met Mr, Fiske, who, in reply to my question, ‘*Why do you allow tho aisio | to be occupied 2” replicd, “The people are too nu ous and we cannot prevent it,” and stating, “It [ wanted to get to my seat to jump down over the heads of those using the steps.’ 1, as weil as others, thought the law forbids the crowding of aisies, and was much surprised at Mr. Fiske’s replios, Ono fact was very apparent, that if any alarm of firc or any anusual excitement bud broken out the loss of life would have been considerable, and all owing to the lack of ma agement and want of sufliciont usters, If Mr. Fiske d not recolicet this occurrence! shall be happy to refresh his memory.
