Town AND CoUNTRY.-The extreme heat of the
weather for tho past three or four days. has operated
in hurrying out Of the city great number Of those
who had determined on ruralzing for the summer.
Many private houses within that time have become
emptied Of their occupants, and the crowds at the
hotels arc also considerably diminished. The
churches are losing their congregations, and the
pastors preparing to close the concerns for the
season. The theatres, too, but thinly attended,
with the exception Of the monkcyfed Astor Opera
House, Niblo's, and Burtons, which still continue
to De crowded. There are, however, a great many
who have deferred their departure until after
Alboni's first concerts, and then the rush out Of
town WILDE tremendous. Those who long for cool
shades and delicious sea bathing, can be gratifed

ARRIVAL FROM HAVANA AND THE SoUTH.-We
perceive that VIM SIDNEY SMITH, ESQ, a gentle
man connected with the British Consulate at
Havana, has arrived in town, from New Orleans
and the West, and has taken lodgings at the Irving
House.
Mr.. Smith is well known, in conjunction with Mr.
Crawford, also functionary Of highly liberal
spirit the British Consul at Havana, for the kind
ness and attention which he paid to the poor
deluded young who had been engaged and
captured in the last fibusteo expedition, in which
Lopez lost his life. AT Mobile, New Orleans, and
every leading town on the Mississippi, Mr. Smith
has been received by the friends and acquaintance
Of these youths, with degree Of attention highly
honorable to American gratitude for the generous
acts done by the functionary Of another nation.
Mr.. Smith on these occasions made several inter-
estng explanations of the peculiar situation Of the
authorities Of the Island of Cuba, the state Of public
feeling there, and the generous and manly character
Of the late Captain General Concha, who acted
towards these youths, throughout, with forbcar-
ancc and highmindedness worthy of Spain and OF

CONDITION OF THE CITY 1T is matter of graft
fcation to observe that the united expression of
public opinion as to the publication Of the city, has
produced some effect on the authorities, who feel
compelled to pay little more attention to the de-
mands of the community in that respect. Broadway
has been Of late kept cleaner and frecr from dust
than we have known it for years before, and some
progress has also been made in the cleansing of other
portions of the city. But though the scavengers
work should terminate by 8 o'clock in the morn
ing, it frequently extends to or 10 o'clock. With
this exception, The cleaning Of Broadway is pretty
well attended TO, although the greatest nuisance
that ever tried the patience Of a suffering commu-
rity is still permitted to remain uninterfercd with
We allude to that intoerable pest known rs the
Perrine pavement, from which, it seems, we are
never to be freed There is also another matter
connected with the cleanliness of Broadway and
other streets to which attention should be called,
and that is, the reckless and improper waste OF Gro
ton water by the occupants Of some houses. Ii is
shameful extravaganza to have it lavished over the
Sidewalks and on the street, opposite the DOORS as
we constantly see it, converting the dust into mud
to the great annoya of pedestrians Not only is
the practice unclcanly, disagreeablo and extrava-
