improvements About Town.

Notwithstanding the stringeney Of the mo-
ney market, there is a greater activity among
builders than w0 have known for two or three
yaers past. The cheapness Of building materi-
al, labor and town lots, has undoubtedly contri-
ted to this result. There is q large number Of
dwelling houses now in process Of construction
some Of them costly and elegant, and all con-
venient and comfortable. Among the number,
we note the following:
In the Third Ward, just south Of the residence
Of Yolnsy French, Esq, Mr.. Broctway is com

SABBATH MoRNtNG.-A fair cores
pondent of the Green Bay Advocate,
throws her Imagination upon the sub
ject of a sabbath morning, and writes
down some pleasant thoughts concern
ing it, from which we take few para
graphs:
A sunny Sabbath morning is better
than the beginning of a feast. The bells
are sweeter than those that ring for a
village wedding Today the iron gate
Of the world swings back, and we leave
the hustle and notes.-the wrinkled,
care-worn faces-and wander away in
the fields of fancy. We will forget our
griets. We viii put on the robes or
ease. We will saunter through the cas-
tie Of Incidence, and live long, hap
lpy day in lettering about its towers,
and gazing from its turrets towards the
blue battlements of heaven. We saw
the morning star grow dim, aud gray
ish clouds turn to FURNISHED gold above
the eastern hills; and we will see the
last rays of sunlight shiver and dart in
the pine tree tops Of the boundless Yves.
tern forest. Again we will look at the
evening star, and sigh that another day
is gone.
But it is yet Sabbath morning, and
the light is 'sweet to the eyes" and
the air is most delicious. Little ar
rows Of ecstacy shoot through the cur
rents of our blood" Delightful thoughts
rain on us like April showers. Every
thing IN nature seems to have tongue
or voice. AS we are, in such moments,
nearer to the Creator, so are His crea-
lures nearer us--We kiss the flowers,
and Of the breeze which fans our cheeks
we say,
I" All, happy western winds that blow that way,
For you shall kiss my loves fair face to-day"
1t is good to be alone at such times
to feel the heart throbbing with love
tor the beautiful and good. This is the
time for soul growth-the time to pluck
away the bitter roots of hatred and ieal-
ouSy, and sow the seeds of charity and
love. This is the time to wash dim
ness from our vision, and to tear away
the barriers that a cold world builds
about heavens children. Surely ''God
blessed the seventh day and hallowed it!
Gov. WISE OF VIRGINIA.-There is no
question at all that this despised Admin
istration is catching hard knocks. The
last one given it comes from the valiant
fist Of Governor Wise, whom even all
the Custom House officials were ready
to hurrah heartily for, but a little time
ago. He has recently written letter,
OF which extracts had been given, but
the appearance Of which as a whole has
been deferred until now. In that letter
he states the issue between the Demo.
erats Of Virginia and Mr.. Buchanan
thus:--"But the question isis the old
Virginia Democratic faith to be aban-
doned, and are zee to rush on acith the
president into q full scheme Of Federal
policy achich IN its achole outline and
filing ZIP eaceeCls aoy Federalism IN all
its points aohich a Hamilton or adams
or d'ay other l0titudinarian ever dared
to project or propose ?"-Boyton Ledger.
