CITIZENS' ASSOCIArioN. The 'Citizens' Association, both by the ra pidity and Completenas of•its organization and Its promptness in_ establishing itself in its headquarters, in Walnut street, below Fifth, hob given sufficient proof of the energy and ac tiff y `_with= which its 2.ourse is likely to be marked. It will find much to do, and, sup ported as it is 14 public sentiment, its influence will'be'great: We hope to see an immediate commencement of improvement in our thoroughfares. If the Association can find some equitable ground 110.4 Which property-owners and the laity can meet with •respect to improved street pavements; it will do much. It is clear that the City cawiot aflord the whole cost; nor, when owners have once paid fOr paving, could they, with justice, even if the law permitted, be made to pay the whole'cost of: substituting a better pavement. , Pennsylvania avenue from Broad street to the - fork is a terrible nuisance. It is not right that Op t whole district of Green. Hill should have steam trains moving across Fifteenth, Sixteenth, Seventeenth, &c,, streets, and be thus crit , Off • from the southern and central portions of the city. The intolerable delays in getting North Broad' street *hove the Connecting Rail _ road bridge into order, need.attentfon. - The bridging of the Reading head, and the mac adamizing of Rising Sari lane' from Broad street to Germaritownload, should not be de layed an utmecissarytiak.' r The Association might well pay some atten tion to the draining of the Neck, the MarsheS of which,..'in the opitticin of our physicians, keep typhoid and, malarious fevers endemic throughout the city. Much might be accom plished at a very moderate cost. Less ,than a hundred by dollars judiciously ex pended by the city; with ' energetic 'action on the part of the Board of Health to compel pro perty-owners to co.operate, would accomplish a great Sanitary reform. . Broad street will especially claim attention. From Prime stieet to Coates a ne* pavement wanted.: An - attempt to run omnibuses would result in a failure, and then' a bill to lay tracks would be Snaked through the Legisla ture, and nothing be known of it till that body bad adjourned. Let us keep the street clear from all such dangers. It is the only hope the city has of a really great street, and every citi zen should feel personally interested in pre serving it from misapplications. As the passenger railways have got pos session of very nearly all our principal streets, and as they haVe in all cases ap propriated the best part; in fact the only good part of each street—the centre—they should be compelled to lay wooden pave ments between the rails. No reform in our streets is more important than this. At . preSent the railways have ruined all the streets they have taken for all use but their own , and tbat of heavy teams. For the spaces be tween the curbstones and the track are mostly so iiitigh - that' to drive, over them is to risk losing one's wheels. On the other hand,; in the spaces between the rails the c.obLle-stones are worn so smooth that horses, blip danger ousiy and suffer greatly. HorseS that hare pot very strong feet will go lame when driven be " tweili the rails, when they 'do not hi any Other place... • lt appears doubtful if the railways can, be compelled at once to replace their paving with wood, but it is certain that they can be re quired. VlieneVer they repair, to ehange to wood, and thus in a few years the change would be aCCOMplished. But the real way to bring, these companies to a sense of the rights of citizens is . to.bring lap the question of the city purchasing all the railways and then let ting them out to car companies. The city has ibe right to take all the . roads at cost, and the time will certainly come when this will be done. By a more enlightened self-Interest, the present owners can considerably defer this event, which their present conduct tends.. to bast . ben. The saving of horses by this change would doubtless make .it a profitable one to the con panics themselves • ocrEcti6 MIEN i I There - iff,,a, simple proposition, with regaall to the return to isiietio ' . ooiperibi,' the foiee' , of _ ' W hich is , gradually, xnakingits., way .into th e . public rninti;''-ind '• Strengtlie'idnethefeeling .

It is to be presumed that the,,experiment has been a failure, as was , generaily anticipated. It would have been a success, but for the difficulty that the people :would 'not ride in the cars. But for this one =peculiarity, the Company would have made a, great deal of money by the innovation. But h is said that the Company is going back to the Ohl plan. Is there no alternative ; but. this ?. If it is true that the conductors as a class appropriate more fares than the amount of their wages, why not contrive some plan for retaining ihe practical advantages of the Slaw son system,without ita fatal drawbacks? If the automatic money-receiver were at the rear in stead ot at the frol4,of the car, and under the supervision of a conductor who could make change as the' Slawson driver now does, and also attend to' the comfort 'and safety of passengers, without handling any money; and If the driver could thus be left to attend to his own proper business, we cannot see where there could be any leak in the receipts of the Company. If the present general plan is so leaky as to constitute a sufficient reason for keeping up the fares, the car companies ought certainly to adopt some plan that will stop the demoralization ,of their empleyes, accommo date the public, and increase their own divi dends. "Ashes to Ashes" seems to be the rule of the new street contractors. Poi days, together, many of the principal streets are obstructed with accumulations of ashes-waiting, with anything.brit the patience' of honseholders, for the carts that do not, carry ,theui away. Part of this nuisance may result from a want , of knowledge of the proper time to put .ashes out, and ,' for the benefit of those who may .be ignorant on this point, we publish to-day the, full list of the visi tations supposed, at least, to be made by the ash-carts. The Board of Health is more than delighted to receive the complaints of citizens, and these should be sent in without delay. • They will be attended to immediately, but If at first you don't succeed, , • Try, try again!"' • Continual dropping will wean, away the stoniest heart of the most profligate contractor, • and a patient persistence in exposing the failure d tity in 'cleaning the streets and removing • the ashes may yet,' meet its just reward. oHN HROUGHAR AT THE ,4ILCH —Mr. John Brougham made his appearance at the Arch Street Theatre last evening before a very large audience, in his own comedy, Playing with Fire.

The music was treated nearly..as . badly: One or two pf the solos were given, with good effect, hut most of the concerted pieces were per formed' -as if the singers were afraid to ' trust them Selves ; and 'so" there 'was either a reckless breaking of the legs of time, , and total destruction of the Sentiment, or else aliCh piano singing that the voices were smothered by the orchestra. Miffs Susan, Miss Blanche and Mr.' Whillin anted very well, and if they had , been more faniiliar with the text would have given a first rate performance. Mr. Gilchrist, who played the " Doctor," is an amateur with inferior vo cal gifts and no histronic ability whatever.
