is astonished, contrary to the context, to find
that Bank street had not improved in the past
twenty years. After quiet snoose of two de-
cades, he fully recognized the once familiar spot
and could hardly be persuaded that he had been
asleep so long. However, had he been allowed to
sleep few months longer, he would have been
puzzled to recognize Bank street for the spirit of
Improvement has been along, and Bank street is
to be modernized Several of the houses, on each
side of that street, to be fitted up for stores
with all the modern improvements of glass fronts,
iron or granite columns &C., and business is about
to spread in that direction.
Property on that street is becoming very valua-
ble and we shall not be surprised to see in twelve
months row of splendid stores each side of
street, from Main to Cove By the way, some of
that property is offered for sale and capitalists
will do well to look to it. sae
