CITY IMPROVEMENTS " Yesterday, We had
the pleasure of long walk through those por.
tons Of the city where it was our pleasure, o
few years since, to shoot plover, snips, and
larks There are no fields now Hpon which to
practise without risking fac for shooting in
the streets. North and south, streets are laid
out, and largo and eommodious buildings
erected. During the working season Of the
past year, many fine, large stores and dwell
lings have been erected upon lots once occu-
pied by poor, filthy shanties; and we are glad
to be able to say that those improvements are
mostly the result of the labor of industrious
workingmen. From the river, south, to Boun-
dary street, north, the city is rapidly i'm
proving; and even now, though the winter has
set IN, our bricklayers, carpenters, and ma
sons are employed on work to be finished
during the winter. The dull times do not ap-
pear seriously to effect the building enterprise
Of cur citizens.
LAST WEEK or THE REvIvAL.-It has been
determined, We learn, to close tho revival Of
religion which has been conducted for seven
weeks past, with much success and spirit, al
the Thirteenth street Baptist Church, at the
expiration of the present week Last evening
the church was we'll filled with an attentive
and deeply interested auditory, and the Rev
DR.. 7. G. Teasdale discoursed ably and elo
quently upon the nature and quality Of tn,
:. objectionable SIM" Tonight, Rev. Mr.
Tanner, the Indian, will deliver q discours,
in this church He is a very forcible, logica
speaker. and bis variations respecting his ia
bors among his own people are highly enter
| tanning Every Indication is that the CLOSING
week will be highly prosperous one In th
matter Of conversions.
