PROPOSITION To EXPAND GoTHAM.-A
proposition has been ventilated for the en-

the filling up Of the East river and the
cutting OF another chaInel on the Long

better for the Long Island Sound naYiga-

this idea is not deemed wild and expensive,

zette that "Bishop" Stevenson, who has
been scandalized, of which we made q
note at the time, has again turned up
The Gazette says:
BY the following, which we clip from
this weeks New Lisbon Journal, it will
be seen that that well-known individ'
ual "Bisaop" Stevenson, has again turn
ed up:
Alex. Stevenson, the cosmopolitan
street preacher, delivered discourse
from the steps of the court house OIL
Sabbath afternoon of last week. Alex
has never been honored with very large
audiences, and this occasion was not by
any means an exception. He is getting
quite old sud feeble, his Sands Of life
are nearly run out, and ere many year:
he will be transferred hence.
The "Bishop" has again returned t.
this city, without the fear of Pittsburgh
officers before his eyes. We suppose
his voice will again be heard resonnd
| ing from the Market House.
And the Gazette further says:
Navigation is suspended on the Ohio
river at this point. Oh for sufficient
amount of rain to enable steamboats,
and coal boats to glide past our wharf
If the river should freeze up in its pres
emit low state, the suffering among the
poor in the cities below US will be very
severe.

The above caption we have selected
to convey to the traveller an idea Of the
Girard House, Philadelphia. The only
objection we have to the heading of our
article is that it is not adequate to ex-
press the opinion of those who patronize
this hotel. 1t is magnificent in every
sense of the word, being fitted up like a
palace, and managed in the best OF
style. The tables always groan under
the ample supply of the best the mar
kets afford, and the rooms are furnished
in an elegant manner. "Mine host"
