The situation of ST. Paul is unsurpassed

ished to an ordinary stream by the lowness of its

pearance of the town. The streets are laid out
regularly and are of ample width, no. built up as
yet with substantial houses, but rapidly improving
Indeed, il is surprising how much has been ac-
complished within three years, at the beginning
OF which there were scarce dozen houses in the

twenty-five hundred and there is an air of brisk
progress and life about the place, which with il adj

and comfort, and we hope others Will do the same.
We believe dress does not der materially from those

whether the skirt be long or short Another important
consideration which urge upon our lady readers is

are perfectly easy, and far preferable 10 straps" We
are hapy TO know that they now worn to consid-
erable extent and they will be generally adopted when
their advantage becomes known.
The pretest style OF cloak for the short dress is full
