Coon SIGNs.-We sonctimeS take Il
stroll through our town, aud are
pleased to observe the Indications OF
improvement. Besides mary new
buildings erected in the last year or
two, we know Of quite a Number IN
contemplation. Hitherto the square
has not been the theatre OF improve
ment, but if signs do not !ai, it will
begin TO look up soon. Our clever
young friend. John Vaughan. will soon
commence the erection o. a good brick
instead of the present sdanty he occu-
pies, and we do hope that before many
days go by. that the whole gow OF
shanties from Vaushn's 10 Shocks will
be torn down aud good, substantial,
elegant buildings arise TO supply the
loss.
Off the square we notice improve
ments being made 10 bu. Idlngs By the
addition OF porticos. in front. which
we think add mach to the appearance
of the buildings, and their comfort
also.

construction of the Depot building at
the Depot on the Winchester and Ala.

notice that the street leading TO the
Depot is being thrown up and gravel.
ed. This manner Of fixing the street
seems, to us, to be wrong, though we
don't profess to be a good judge of
such things. Yet it appears TO us
that the ground around should be
.leueled and all graveled. since drays
and vehicles of different kinds must be
constantly turning round, and AS it is
fixed at present, they will inevitably
run off into the side bitches. Instead
of running a narrow road blunt up to
the track. it ought to spread out to a
broad level.
