Eew Houses,


in the Eastern part of the city. n the neigh
borhood of Mr.. Crawford BeII's new house,
that are worthy Of notice in the aggregate,
although not many Of the buildings are of
sufficient importance to be particuIarized.-
In this portion of the city, there are a large
number Of desirable building lots, and very
pleasant locations for residences. We do not
doubt; however, but the same may be
said of other sections of the city, only our
morning walks have been extended as yet but
to the locality Of which we speak. Other
quarters shall receive a ''before breakfast
call, !" and the proper comments. AT this
time the Eastern part of'the city is devoted
almost entirely to residences, which are spread
ing themselves farther and farther and in
thicker clusters, yet with fine building lots III
tervening. Mr.. Bells new residence isa fac
building, OF plain though substantial outward
appearance, and said to be finished with much
taste inwardly. 1t is surrounded by a large
yard laid off hastily in walks parterres flow
er beds, &C., in tasteful style, with rows of
Crocus already opening their yellow leaves to
the spring rains and sunshine. Mr.. Bell has
penchant for flowers it would scem-at all
events, he has taste for the beautiful which
always comprises flowers. His garden and
yard will be beautiful in summer.
MIR. Barnes new mansion on Water street,
several squares above Main: is large and
elegant structure, yet in an unfinished state,
although it will be completed this spring. 1t
stands on the river bank, alIording a beauti-
full view of the river and in a conspicuous
place to be seen for miles up and down the
Ohio. The building is very large, built in
city style, with double parlors, drawing room
&c. 1t has three fronts, opening on Water
to the river. and on the street below. As seen
by travellers on the river, this building is an
ornament to the city.
But about these fine residences, there are
smaller houses, brick and frame, which have
lately sprang up on every side. This spring
and the coming summer will witness probably
more substantial improvements in the upper
portion of the city than were put up last
season.
A ride around the outskirts of the lower
part of the city, and Lamasco, has shown us
evidences that the upper section is by no
means more prolific in improvements. But
this portion Of Evansville must claim a sepa-
rate walk and separate article.

Love In Death.

A Mother sits by lowly grave,
A hilloek small and green,
With two gray stones at the head and feet,
And the dasied turf between.
Silent she sits in that place of graves,
AS if tranced in dream of prayer,
And her hand oft plays with the rustIing grass,
AS with curs of an infants hair.
Does she think of the time when she hushed it soft,
With cradle lullabies
Or when it hung her teeming Breast
With a smile in its lifted eyes?
Or when she touched with o reverend hand
(When its sunny years were three)
The lamb-like fleece of its f1axen locks
As it prayed beside her knee?
Or the hour when sad and simple pail
Was borne from the cottage door,
And its dancing step was never heard
Again on the household floor?
Does she fondly image a cherub shape
Mid a shining angel band, .
With her star-crown'd locks and garments white,
With lily in it's hand
Silent her thought but at twilight hour
Ever she sitteth there,
And her hand oft plays with the rustling grass,
AS with curls of an infants hair.
