CITY INTEIJIGFNCE.


Donnel & Sons, proposing to cede to the city
a square Of ground, in the western section of
the CITY, on condition that It shall be enclosed
with a suitable iron railing; and that the seve-
raj springs of water which take their rise in
the square. shall be collected into one reservoir
and converted into an ornamental Fountain
for the public USE They state in their COM
, Immigration that they are willing 10 grade and
pave the avenues running TO the square, 10 the
width of eighty feet, with the provision, how
ever, that as soon as they shall have comPlet-
cd this, the corporation will proceed at once to
inclose and improve the square, and to grade
: and pave the streets on which it fronts, ard
further that site be granted by the city for
the Monument contemplated to be erected by
the Jackson Monument Convention. The To-
cation Of square of this description in the
western section of the city, would certainly be
a great improvement and would afford de-
/ lIghtful retreat from the noise, hustle and con-
fusion attending the prosecution OF tie active
duties Of life.
The Heather. The merry jingle of the
sleigh bells which enlivened our streets few
DAYS since has subsidized. The clustering of
rude Boreas has ceased, and now instead Of
our citizens wrapping themselves in cloaks and
furs, these necessary appendages in cold wea-
ther are DOTTED, and pedestrians move along
our sun and moon.lit streets with the freshness
ofthe mild balmy weather which has so agree
ably visited us. The weather yesterday was
really delightful, and we question if an Italian
sky has more charms than the delightful spring
weather we experienced. All things appeared
to start into newness; the little ones who had
been during the winter housed up, peeped
forth their merry faces, and their sparkling
eyes indicated the delight ofther young hearts !
at the return of Spring. The "belles"-the !
fair ladies of the Monumental city welcomed !
the appearance of ''the spring time of year"
by inhaling its balmy breath, during their
promenadngs in principal streets. This
we opine is the commencement Of new era
the era Of glorious Spring. Our merchants
indicate their preparations for large business,
and every one we meet, with pleasant smiles
exhibits the Joy and delight Of spirit which hope
inspires.
