HOW TO IMPROVE AND BEAUTIFY
CUR CITY

Downing, the distinguished au-
thor, whose teachings arc rccogniz-
ed in all civilized countries as the
standard of rural and architectural
taste, received, 4 number of years
ago, the following letter from a
friend who had settled in a western
town:
''If you or any man of taste wish
to have a fit of the blues, let him
come to the city of -. I have
just arrived here and all my ideas
of rural beauty have been put to
fight by what l see around me
every day. Old wooden or stone
houses out of repair and looking
rickety and decayed, new wooden
houses, distrcssingIy lean in their
proportions, chalky white in their
clapboards, and SpiRdchy green in
their olinds. The churches are OBJ
solutely hideous-pilcs of rough,
uncough stone, with huge pepper
box on their tops. There is scarcely
a tree in the streets, and if it were
not for the fields of refreshing ver-
dure that surround the place, l
should haye the opthalmia as well
as the blue-dcVils. Is there no way
of instilling some rudiments of
taste into the minds of dwellers in
remote western tows?"
Mr.. Downing replied:
'The first duty of an inhabitant
of neighborhood like the city of
-, is to use all possible infiu-

little trouble or expense to each
property holder, and once planted
there is some assurance that, with
the aid of time and nature, we can
cast graceful veil over the barren
defOrmity of the streets of new
town. Indeed, village or city
whose streets are baTaen of trees
ought to be looked upon rs in q
condition not less pitiable than 4
community without schoolmaster,
or teacher of religion, for certain it
is when the affections are so dull,
and the domestic virtues so blunt,
that Uen de not care how their OWE
homes and villages look, they care
very little for fulfilling any moral
obligations not male compuisorS
by the strong arm of the law ; while
on the other hand, show us a Massa-
chetts village, adorned by its ave-
nues of Gins and made tasteful by
the affections of its Inhabitants, and
you also place before us the fact
that it is there where order, good
character, and virtuous department
most of all, adorn the lives and
daily conduct of its people,"
A lady correspondent comment
ing on the subject, remarks:
"What man or woman will deny
that if stately elms hung out over
every side walk an umbrella of
pendant branches covered with
fresh dancing leaves, it would not
add immensely TO the comfort of
their homes, to the value of their
property, to the pleasure and COM

yet delivered for Grant is reported
by telegraph as delivered by Chas.
O'Conor at n recent interview. lie
was not arguing in favor of Gen.
Grants election, but he could not

been. He said:
"The country is in q prosperous

kind of apprehension"
That 10 true, and the sound bust
ness men know it. They intend t.
continue the prosperous condition

that is the reason there is emo caus,

on Monday night. There were

The Colonel occupied the stand for

made them squirm. He was more
than usually severe on those Re-

Gratis. We judge the Coloners
speech did not please this class, but
the Republicans were admonished
to "stick to the old ship" and we
guess none of them will feel less
inclined to do SO on account of his
visit. From tho way he was ire
quently applauded, we judge the
audience thought the shot tell in
the right place.
