THE INSPECTOR OF NUISANCES.
[To tiie Editor of the Daily Telegraph.] Sin, —Through your columns, in a letter, I find it stated that 120 houses in the borough are connected with the drainage sower. Is this a fact, as very recently I saw it waa stated by, I believe an official, that not more than 30 persons had their premises connected as above. Now, which of these figures are correct, I know not ; but it points to the fact that Mr Black has plenty yet to do in the way of causing nuisances to be ab'ited, and I would advise him to go about his work in a different manner, and not enter upon private property without first intimating, in a maunor that any person of good breediug would do, that he desiree in his official capacity to look over tho premises, and, failing the leave given, then to use the power he has as an inspector of nuisances undor the Act. This would to my mind bo tho course to be pursued by any one desiring to carry out an unpleasant duty, and of making fewer enemies.—l am, &0., Caution. Juno 21, 1883.
