the value Of the estate will be greatly in
creased by it. Vacant lots would in this
way be rendered much more valuable; for
who in selecting q spot for house, would
not prefer one which was shady and or
numental by trees' No beauties of ait,
no architectural splendor can compensate
:or the absence of these ornaments, which
come from The hand Of nature. With
these ornaments, the absence Of artificial
beauty will hardly be observed. We are
glad to observe that some Of our ncighbors
are turning their attention to the elm and
sugar maple. These are clean, beautiful
trees, grow readily in our soil 4; and, in
terspersed with our locusts, would do much
to relieve the dull sameness which the
uniform prevalence of these trees presents.

REVIVAL OF BUSINESS. "A most graft
flying change appears to have taken place
in the commercial aspect Of affairs in the
city Of New York. The week ending last
Saturday is represented by the newspapers
and business men, as the busiest that has
been known since that panic which ruined
the merchants, and Frustrated the prosper.
ity Of the commercial emporium. The
steamboats, have arrived full of passengers,
the greater part of whom were mercantile
men, and the wharves, streets and ware
houses have presented scene Of activity
like the olden time. The Commission
Merchants, Jobbers, and Grocers, have all
been fully engaged. and every thing wears
the air OF hustle and thrift, TO which the
city has SO long been almost a stranger
Money, too, which has been very scarce
grows easier, business men find less cause
for complaint in this respect. To the
favorable news from Europe is to be attri.

change, added to which the opening of the
canals gives an impetus TO trade with the
