To the Editor of the Evening Stab,
Sib,—Allow me to call your attention to yesterday s doings of our famed City Board Surely in Ibis age of reform and permissive clauses something might be done to cleanse that Augean stable of the low, filthy lan-mace and spleen that flows from its great members Such language as " you dirty, mean, low scoum j drel," " hound," &c, would hardly be tolerated jin the lowest pothouse in the city. How scandalized every member of the community must feel at having returned such men to represent them ! and how how, when we are" through the Press, holding ourselves up as models of legislation, and as au example of the success that is to attend the suppression of crime through our great Permissive Bill, all our joys are to be dashed to the earth thro'inm the intemperate language of that great member of the Board and his satellites! Do, Mr. Editor, try and " save us from our friends."—l am, &c, T. H. A....1-1.... J TH" 1. m inhi
