CIVIC ORNAMENTS.
To the Editor of the Erenin rj Star. Sir, —When you pass down Princes street you may see, ab>ng the lower coping of the \'ew Post office building, sixteen brieks and stones so handily placed as to make sixteen broken heads tor the some numb>-r of wayfarers when a s rong wind gives tln.m that chmce. What our civic guardians intend them for, or why the usually astute Mr Nimo i leaves them there, has been for some time a puzzle t > me. bur, I presume they are scentless. — Yours, &c., Observer. November 26, 1866.
