Notwithstanding the great increase of buildings in this city and its environs, during the last quarter of a century, they are still going on with astonishing rapi dity, and Churches and public edifices are rearing in quick succession.' The most central is the intended magnificent edifice on the north end of the Earthen Mound, the erection of which has been protracted by the laborious process of driving nearly 2000 piles, on which the foundation has been finished, and the polished masonry is now going on. The noble column to the memory of that eminent statesman Lord ViscOunt Melville, in St. Andrew's square, is a fine object. Th e colossal statue of his Lord ship is yet wanting on the summit. The new Episco pal Chapel of St, John, at the west end of Princes street, and that of St. Paul, in York-place, are ornaments of the richest kind. Waterloo-place, where the Post and.-Stamp Offices and Waterloo Hotel are situated, though a short street, is on a magnificent scale ; those only who witnessed the progress of the improvements. here can duly appreciate the stupendous nature of the un dertaking, and the obsticles that had to be surmounted. The-approach by this road is sublime. The Jail and Governor's house are tonspieubus objects. A great ad dition is making, to the Register House, at the back, which extendsthe whole length of that fine building. On the north' side of the town, in the Canonmills Distillery Attk;ugroup of contiguous public buildings are in rapid progress, viz. a new Chapel of Ease for St. Cuthbert's Parish, the Deaf and Dumb Institution, and 'the Edinburgh Academy : the first mentioned edifice is roofed and the steeple finished, which terminates in an open dome ana crosslet : the second is roofing, and the Academy. which 'will be ,very extensive, is above the foundation, and the polished masonry busily proceeding with. Drummond-place is nearly completed. Bellevue Crescent, at Broughton, has been occupied as far as the houses are finished, and the foundation of the new Church there is Dearly ready for the superstructure. Tbis situation is very delightful, and commands a fine prospect... Claremont Crescent, a little to the north ward on the same road, also in progress, will be nowise inferior. At the east - end of Broughton place a tie* Chapel, of the United Secession body, has been etectiM• with a noble poetise of the Davie orderettlopold-platti at the western termination of the new London Road,ll a fine pile of building. In the north-west quarter, the Royal Circus is nearly finished and inhabited. A vacant piece of ground on the west side is railing in for an additional shrubbery, and we presume the same will take place on the east side, un less it is still in contemplation to erect a church or other public edifice upon it. The plan of the intended elegant octagon in Lord Moray's grounds is beginning to deve lope itself, and at the west end of Queen-street, on the ' north side, several noble housessare nearly finished as to the masonry. A very neat row of houses has been erected It .the beginning of the Queensferry-road (Lynedock- Auce), Whi c h i coottininds I most - beautiful prospect, in &ding the romantic 'scenery of the Water of Leith, in die fore-gnannd.
