MARKET-HOUSE.

■.''.'.•■"'■'•" To the' Editor oE the HEitAip. '" ; Sib,—On behalf of the public I call upon \ '-our present Mayor to rectify an injustice • ' :' ;; which was perpetrated dupng the term of. ; ' J '«ffiiee : of his predecessor. I allude to the " '' closing the western approach to theM.irket; ■ .and I maintain that the City Corporation . ''' ' have no more right to close this thorough- ' fare than they have to shut up any other.. The '' "market is riot over ventilated, and not only are tho public put to considerable incon- ;• ■-' ' ivenience, bnt the stall-holders in the lmme- . ; , diate neighbourhood are deprived,of, .the ' ■', necessary amount ;oE fresh air. which, .their .'H-businesa requires. I visited, the Market to- , ■"':'. s &'day,' and the air at the western. end was L ,"■"•-almost Btifling.- I believe that there has been '• I 1 no valid reason for this encroachment upon . ;,>^ !; the public rights, and in the large area avail- ': on. the ground,, on Neither side of. the ' .;?'-transept; .there is abundant, room, for the ; '. for which the illegal obstruction ~' ,, ' hasi been permitted. The infringement nn- ■' [''donbtedly lessens the value of the market . ; '''.-to the lessee;, and the matter should be put '.*!.'■! -'before the year's, lease is brought to -,-. ~7};: j ;.,.:■:
