OUR STREET GUTTERS.
To the Editor.
Sir,— Permit me, through the medium of your columns, to draw the attention of our City guardians to the necessity of effecting more stringent means of keeping our street gutters clean, more especially during tlie summer months. On that part of the hill where I reside, viz., the vicinity of Brown and Canongate streets, the accumulation of filth at present existing is quite sufficient of itself to breed disease ; and, unless prompt and regular attention is given to this, I fear that all the efforts of Dr Gillies and his special constables in preventing the spread of scarlet fever will be of little avail.—l am, &c., OITKEN. Dunedin, Jannaiy 24.
