‘tions for foot-passeiigcrs, it is a standing nui-
sauce, that will keep us behind the iieiglil:or-

its present. condition. The danger of interfer-
ing with “vested rights" in its inimediate vicini-
ty, seems to keep all thoughts of iiiiproviiig it,
‘out of the public mind, but when “vested i'iglits"
have become a public cuixse’ it is time to look a
little into their foundations. and ifthey are dis-
covered to rest on nothing, the period has
arrived for soiiiebody to act, even should no one
be found willing to do so but:“Eiisign Andrews.”

is courteously worded. In conclusion, he hopes
the Sovereign Congress will act. as shall be most"
