Of the atmosphere. Yesterday was, and this morning it
is about eighteen degrees colder than usual The impress
sion is that there has been hail storm ut very

In this, like almost every city people are becoming
strongly dissatisfied with the proceedings Of Congress
rather with the omission Of those who have been sent

of their constituents. To enact II possible such laws
the nations good demand, or else so home and save ex
pense 1t is beginning to be discovered that almost every
thing is plenty but money. Congress having powerto
regulate the currency it being found out that the time
has arrived when such steps should be taken as TO accom-
plsh the desired end.

FIFTY YEARS AGO

Fifty years ago, and cities now full of thou
sands OF souls, were the hunting grounds of the In
dian, and covered only by the forest or swamp
FIFTY years ago, and the city of New York contained
but about 33,OOO inhabitants; 1t has now 3l2 600
Boston then about 5000; now 90, O00 Philadel-
phla then about &C, 900, now 900, 900. Baltimore,
which then had but about $1,000, has now lOO,-
900.
Fifty years ago, and we had nothing of the gi-
gantlc wonders OF steam; and we had no boiling
cauldrons traversng the land and water, putting
and grooming, and pulling pushing enormous
masses with fury along now here, now there, as
the master spirit which controlled them NIL ht die
tate. Fifty years ago, the worthy fathers and mo-
theirs of the present generation were willing to dress
In their own hOmespun; the busy wheel was whir-
ring by the kitchen freside, the knitting needles
piled, and the wool woven in the house, and
the fabrics dressed at the fuing-miIl, which has
given away to the spacious factory, the water-whee
and steam-engne, the improved spindles and other
machines, manufacturing millions of yards, where
fifty years since only hundreds were made, and
that by thrifty hands OF those mothers and daugh-
tiers OF the hardy farmers of those days.
"Wlth all the changes that have been gong on
in the great world, the of our America has
been onward and upward We have had as
Presidents our Washington, Jefferson, Madison
Monroe, Adams, Gather and son. jackson, Van
Buren,, Harrison and Tyler. England has had her
George Ill. and w., her William ~. and now has
been the scene of more violence, and more excl
ting and terrible connections than almost any other
part of the civilized world, and from which, thanks
TO a kind Providence, we have been measureably
exempt. Within fifty years, Russia and all the
mother countries of the old world would, have had
their changes, some neutral, others startling and
impressive.
"Within the past fifty years, science has done
wonders tor the human race; she has by her disco
veres, the facilities she has created the power she
has developed, added to the wealth and happiness
almost every class in our land. The farmer
among others, is indebted to her for his well-con-
structed pougRs, his improved breed of cattle and
swine, varieties of seeds and grain, as well as
trees, shrubs, vines and his improved implements
OF every kind from the simple apple -peeler to the
steam thrashlng machine. Domestic economy too
has been indebted to science for implements to add
TO our convenience and comfort. Within the past
fifty years commerce has made brethren and friends
of the remote inhabitants of the EARTH the cause of
peace has, trust been progressing; that of phi
3anthropy and temperance is rapidly progressing,
and trust nations grow WISER better acQuaint-
ed, civilized, that vice and ignorance will give
place to virtue and knowledge, and the horrors of
to the quiet blessings of peace and good fell
loWship"

RAPID GROWTH OF ROCHESTER.

Some idea may be formed of the onward march
of our inland city, from the fact that notwithsand
ing the deranged state of the currency, there have
been erected, nearly can be ascertained, from
four FIVE hundred buildings during the year lS4l
some of them noble structures, as well for bust
ness as for dwehngs-and all included in this esti-
mate comfortable residences for ordinary sized ia
miles. And vet the cry is still for room.
We are told by some of the principal builders,
that this enormous increase is nothing but noety
of what will be done next summer, if the contracts
already made can be taken as criterion to Judge
from.
We learn also. that in addition to the ed6ce for
the Commercial Bank, the south side of Buffa-
10 street and adjoining the block on the north
corner of Exchange street, fourstory block is TO
be put up between that and Preston Smiths store,
which latter is TO be carried up the same height,
and connected with block of similar height,
tending from Buffalo street to the canal basin, in
place of the old store house and the small wooden
buildings now on the lot. This will render that
part of the city truly imposing in appearance, and
very convenient for business.
An edihce for the Saving Bank, and two or three
churches will also be erected next summer.
