IMPROVEMENTS IN PoRTsMoUTu.-It is
gratifying to us to notice by the papers of
the above named City, that it is rapidly
improving. Twelve years ago when we
landed at the wharf in Portsmouth we did
not ever expect to live to hear of it grow
ing so rapidly as it now is. Then it con-
tanned population of about 1000. Now
there are at least 5000 inhabitants, the
largest portion of whom are active and
energetic Merchants, Mechanics, Machine
lists, &C., &c. Its destiny is onward and
upward.
All its business men have to do is to
make known its advantages to increase its
'phylactaries. This they can ofectually
do, by pursuing aight-forward course
in dealing with their neighborS, and max
ing known through their local and neigh
boring presses what they have to sell. If
they do this in systematic way, a bright
future awaits the Aourishing city of Ports
mouth.
