AacHrEcruRE.-The inhabitants Of the upper
wards have not been idle, but have been building
up their waste places and improving tho houses
that escaped the war and the fires. AS Tooden
buildings can still be ersctod in that part OF the
city they have sprung up with marvellous rapid
ity compared with the slow growth Of brick and
mortar in tie down town section. These WOODEN
houses are not very ornamental in the:rtesign, and
will not improve the appearance Of the street OK
cept by filing up the vacant lots. They arc usual
" built on stereotyped plan, two stories hlga'
with 9 small brick foundation, and the eye IS often
wearied with the sameness of the scenery. Ihe
hasty manner in which these houses are con-
structed necessarily makes them trail, and one IS
now being built at the corner Of Bogard and Rut-
ledge streets in which the architect has neglected
to have any foundation, praferrng to let his house
stand upon it's own merits. Although this plan is
the cheapest it will be found that in the ena IL
would have paid better to have used the Drlck anu
have avoided the decay that must take place IN
building resting solely on the damp ground.
