STATE OF BRoApwAy.-We believe it is now
generally admitted, that Broadway is in more
forlorn condition, as street, than ever it was be-
fore, under the regime Of any previous party. The
gulies-broken pieces of pavement and all sorts
of distractions innumerable, between the Bowl
ing Green and Union Square, and render this great
thoroughfare exceedingly dangerous for vehicles
Of all sorts Is there no possibility OF having
Broadway repaved! Caanot some scheme be pro-
posed and adopted Of paving it with square blocks
OF granite, which can be so easily obtained on
Staten Island, so that we may at last have de-
cent street9 As to the idea of having railway
through Broadway, it is utterly preposerous. That
is, in fact, one Of the most absurd and dangerous
projects that could possibly be suggested. Let
Broadway be repaved in the manner we have
described, and il will be the finest street on the
oontinpnf
