DISGUSTING NUISANCES.
To the Editor, Sir, —Will you allow mo to draw the attention of the Inspector of Nuisances to the shameful state in which some of the fishmongers’ shops in towu are kept. . . The premises themselves are very dirty and within the shops can be easily seen, and still more easily smelt, filthy barrels, containing more or less rotten entrails, exposed for sale, much to the disgust of passera-by, are stale barracouta and putrid groper, i - many cases quite unfit for human food. Upon these dead b dies unclean aud un-wholesome-looking lads may be sometimes seen amusing themselves by sprinkling water, about half of which falls upon the fish and the balance upon people p..suing the shop. Perhaps the new in°pector will kindly see ■ that this sort of thing is not allowed t<> continue during the coming summer.—l am, &0., Nasal. Dunedin, October 26.
