Rents IN NEw-YoRK.-Some idea may be formed OF the
regular advance of the ideas Of the landlords in New York
by the following settlement:
That portion of Clinton Hall. in Nassaust occupied by
Fowers Wells nomnay two stores, each 20 by 40 feet
with cellar they took in ls45 at rent OF $500 yesr for

they would pay another hundred rather than and

rent $780, and the year after to $1,000 At this there

In it took equal stride and stands at Twenty
FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS for the same premises which
they paid $500 for nine years ago
The advance would be up to $4,000 for the year com
