 had q very pleasant time of it. Madame
 asked a thousand little questions. which I
 tried to answer. and she often laughed very
 merrily at my broken English. Atparting,
 monsieur handed me his card, and he and his wife told me very particularly that il, I should ever come to New York, must be
 sure to call on them You may taught at

NEW HAVEN CORRESPONDENCE.

eSA~i }ttSss 94s@l. !1 t1tfe .3Hf ban ! MR. EDrroR:-Knowing that many of your readers are personally acquainted in New Haven. and feel an interest in what ever transpires here. I propose. if it meets your approval, to write an. occasional let ter for publication in your columns. v n
 ae f..[s THE WEATHER.
 Of what interest would be. g letter CT conversation that did not open with an al. fusion to this important topic? This year, February and March seemed to have re- versed the order of their tcoming-for it was much more Spring-like in the former than the latter month. However, at this present writing, the ground appears to be nearly free from frost, and robins and blue birds charm us daily with their sweet notes. .11m tf.sr . # .a.a.
 THE CITY. .ess..
 As regards business prosperity, this city seems to be highly favored. Among the many new and costly buildings recently erected and in process of erection, we will mention the marble front of the Conn ect. icut Savings Bank, nearly opposite the Custom. House, on Church street; the splendid stone structure of the Yale Ma tional Bank, corner of Chapel and State streets: also the new Register Building. on Chapel street. Tho Home Insurance Go. alone, are erecting between twenty and thirty dwelling-houses, on the recent ex. tension of Court street. Notwithstanding the constant building of dwelling houses, rents especially for small families-are very scarce, and the prices charged exor- bitantly high. D This fact deters many among the laboring classes from making this city their home, and causes some al- ready here to go to other places. Real es- tate of all description is rapidly advancing in value. ['-~aSa9 ' a7aa vELoCRREEs.
 The velocipede mania rages here to a fearful extent. On any fine afternoon, you can observe specimens of the genus homo. from tender youth to mature age, astride of all varieties of this-to the new beginner-most ungovernable steed, eours- ing, tor endeavoring to course) up and down the walks of our beautiful Green, much to the danger and discomfort oi foot passengers. Many are the Imaginable incidents which transpire in connection with this new folly-and some are of s more serious nature. There are six or eight "Velocipeda Kinks, as they are termed, where the art of riding is taught, at the rate of about fifty cents per hour.
 EASTER SUNDAY. .,ts.f.fs g
 The eather was most propitions for the celebration of this joyful anniversary which was generally observed in the Epis- copai and Catholic Churches. The, chan. cells were beautifully decked with rare flowers and appropriate notices and em, blems-which, together with choral servi- ces and carol singing, rendered it an occa. sion of the most interesting nature.
