the purpose of being thoroughly cleansed and re-
painted. AS soon as she has donned her fresh
and comely SUIT she will again be placed upon the

superior character. Her success has, therefore,
been deserved.

IMPROVEMENTS IN SAN FRANCISCO.
We can scarcely keep the OF the improve
ments, in the way of buildings, IN San Francisco.
! so rapidly are they carried out. An halt hours
walk, yesterday, enabled us to see a small portoa
OF what has been done within the last three weeks;
and, accustomed as we are to the fast way OF dong
things IN this part of the country, were really
surprised. To mention the very many and
! really handsome and spacious domlcIls aud ware
houses IN process of erection, is task that would
tax our time and infringe upon our space too much;
but we cannot refrain from noting one or two OF
! the most conspicuous. BY Tar the most striking
building that we have seen is that in Washington
! street, near Montgomery. II Is three stories high,
| with brick front; and when completed, will pre-
sent an elegant aRd substantial appear In the

used as much as possible.
HEALTH OF SAN FRANCISCO
From the Alta California, Jan. 81
Our records OF mortality show that many deaths
have occurred In this city within the past six
months, and that the increase since the commence
ment OF the rams and incement weather has been
such as 10 carry a conviction 10 many minds, pre-
Judicial TO the general health of San Francisco II
Is gratifying TO know, however. that the numerous
instances OF disease and death which we have witt
messed not attributable TO local and permanent
causes TO the degree which would seem indicated,
and that we may, more firmly than ever, notwifh-
standing the adverse influences of sickness and
suffering as at the present moment they exist IN
osr midst, establish the truth, upon well supported
theory, Of the hesthness of this locality, unim-
paired even by the hasty growth OF city rlsiog
into the commanding importance OF vast metro-
polls, and already numbering population Of over
fifteen thousand.
