Doyle—whether mistress or maid does not appear—but, at all events the keeper of a honse of evil repute at York street and West Brond- Way, had boon emptying pails of unclean water in the street, seriously annoying the neighborhood, and endangering (the bealth of the commanity. Mrs. Anderson further complained that her tronblesome pelglibor had declared her intention of continuing this unlawful proceeding tndefinitely. Capt.
