In no part of our town is the march of improve
ments, public and private, more perceptible than
in that portion lying near the College and Con-
vent. While taking q walk in that direction on
Sabbath last, was not little surprised to see
the number of beautiful dwellings, large and
small, which have been erected during the last
year, and Of old diapidated tenements, which
have been thoroughly repaired, and rendered
both handsome and comfortable. Indeed the
change wrought in this direction during the
last year or two, is SO visible, that if person
who had been absent from it, that length of
time, should visit it now, he would scarcely
recognize it as the same. Everything presents
the most neat, clean, and cheerful appearance.
At Trinity (Catholic) Church on Sabbath af-
ternoon, last, there was large and intelligent
audience, composed of all denominations, to hear
the lecture of the Rev. Mr.. Mcclure. His subject
was an enquiry, what is the true Religion which
he discussed at length, and for want of time,
postponed the further consideration of it until
next Sabbath afternoon at A o'clock
The temperance meeting at Society Hall last
night was large and spirited, highly interesting,
and impressive.
Addresses were delivered by the Rev. s. X.
Cox, and W. r. Woodward, esq. These meetings
are fast arousing the public to the Importance of
the subject, and bringing out many of our leading
citizens who have hitherto stood aloof from it. to
its support, and advocacy.
