Show Departing Aroma. The Supervisor Supervi-sor of Streets is entitled to a handsome piece of plate; and we voto he has it if he is in funds. That "green and stagnant pool" is moving. It commenced com-menced yesterday, by a clean and newly made cut, to glide gently away from in frout of the Internal Revenue Assessor's As-sessor's office, leaving behind it a little of the odorous effluvia which has daily greeted our nostrils for weeks. As it stole softly along people were made aware of its presence, even though blindtid to the beauties of nature. But why need we linger on its departure ? Being green, the decadence of its volume vol-ume recalls that sweet refrain by the bard of the Emerald Isle : "Vou may break, you may shatter The jug if you will, But the scent of the poteen Will stick to it still !" |
