point and Hunters Point, whel he was
accosted by two men, who demanded his money. He
refused, and desperate encounter ensued, No
about the head and face. Being rendered partially
unconscious from its effects the vagabonds laid him
upOn the ground and ri1ed his pockets OF fifteen
dollars and threw him into NewtOwn creek. The
injured man, partially restored to consciousness by
the effects Of the cold water cried out FOR assistance
when last he was heard and rescued and conveyed
to his home. Here lie reapsed into state Of un-
morning when reason being restored he stated that
he left Williamsburg at nine O'Clock; he proceeded IN
safety until upon the bridge, when he was met by two
men, who beat him and then threw him into
the creek; they also took what mOnev he had winch

the south side, carpenters shop and coOperage and
an ancient shanty that might serve as exhibition
OF Noan's ark as it appeared many years after the
deluge, WIN soon be reached by the lnappeasaole
army OF Jewellers.
This point marks a new departure. Here IL where
extended Church street Will confer its BLESSINGS OF
hight and sky and air. From Fulton down

many OF them marble, but ali an average
as good as other parts oil the city can show, have

bonded warehouse, back OF Trinity church, and one
or two cotton stores all Is decay, diapdaton hith
misery and malaria

OF Trinity and Thames three old grocery and tene-
ment houses will, for the good OF their inmates
ana the pubic at large be wiped out OF existence.
Yet this was once the most fashionable part OF New
where the eHte Of the drinking gentry sixty or
seventy years ago were wont to go and no doubt, In
their eyes, was as select as DelmonicOs Is IN ours
Old Toms traps are all there still, and were 1t not
for the internally dirty approaches and the con-
demned character OF the location would, no doubt,
still be place OF much resort. Along the line OF
ments, which have been dens OF all kinds
of vice, though in former days-that is, just
when they were first alphabetically well to do mer-
chants lived them after a very comfortable
fashion. Nos. 20, %, "a, 20 and Is, United states
brick buildings, every one OF them will have fifty
feet taken of. Warford Il Vanderveer's store,
eighty eet front, Will lose forty-1ve. The Jewellers
have touched none Of these yet, but have skipped
them over to grapple with the liberated portions OF
Trinity place, which they Will very enectually
cauterize before long. Right in this nelghbor-
hood Henry Placide used to say he spent
very delightful time in house which Is now den
Of impure poverty. Corner Rector and Trinity
places the workmen are busy laying unballowed
hands on some OF the old KnickerDocker residences
OF the past.
From Nos 20 and 70 a series of rOokeries follow
down TO the end the street. which ends IN c,u de
sac. At this point the extension VIII break over to
Greenwich street and enter there at the corner OF
Morris street. Operations have not reached this far
