STINKING PIPES.
I counted two and seventy stenches and several stinks in |jLower Hobson-street last Sunday. This ws& especially aggravating under "the circirmsta?nces. I coxildn't get an antidote. There was not a public-house open in the neighbourhood. The contractor for the cutting had left the broken sewage pipes uncovered, and the neighbourhood was permeated with an aroma which was not that of Araby the blest. The residents in the neighbourhood were to be pitied, but it is to be hoped the City Council |yill not defer the replacement of these pip|s until next summer, as they propose to do with the lowering the houses. <».
