ished at the number of new buildings he sees
going up. To-be-sure, it is rather astonish'
ing to strangers. but citizens have become SO
to these kinds of sights here the
last few years, that they now take it all as
matter of course. They are indeed only as
tonished when visiting other young cities,
not to see some similar marks of great pro-
gress. They don't reflect upon the superior
advantages of Evansville, advantages o
position naturally and advantages concentra-
ted here by great public Improvements. and
appear to think some other city in the West
may probably be growing proportionately as
fast as Evansville, until they begin to COM
pare notes. They are soon satisfied on this
point, however, and every traveller from
