The Pan Mall Gosette thinks New York o1ght
to have hanover streets with higher houses as a
protection against the excessive heat of the sun.
our opinion is that the streets in that city are
two marrow and the houses too high now, enclos-
ing columns OF heated air which no breeze from
the sea can reach to dissipate them. Washing
ington with the thermometer among the nine
ties has very few cases OF sun stroke, and the
reason is that our wide streets re open 10 every
breeze that blows. Boston with its narrow
streets is uncomfortably warm on some days
when the surrounding towns, not so closely
built up, are kept delightfully."- cool by the winds
which blow through their wider thoroughfares.

. GREEIIV-sROwN PAPER.

The Girard Paesg, which has heretofore
been a Republican PAPER, has a lengthy
article in its last issue of the 20,h inst, on the
political situation, in which the editor
states what lie Propose TODD, as follow.:
1t is more than probable that the plat
form Of the Cincinnati Convention will be
adopted at Baltimore, and the candidates OF
that Convention be approved. In case that
ii so turns ont, and Greeley and Brown re-
main in the field, we shall support that
ticket and platform in preference TO the
ticket and platform Of Philadelphia.
The Iareso is uIe OF the largest and best
weekly papers in the State, and by taking
the course above indicated, it cannot fail to dc
much harm 10 the course il has heretofore SC
ably supported, hence We venture 10 e..
press The hope tha, il will yet see the fatally
erroascus character Of It's proposed course
and before the campaign closes, again return
to its proper place in the roads of the old
party.

There is 9 singular fascination about the
West. When man gets used to the West,
there is no danger Of him returning East to
stay. There everything seems cramPed and
irksome, and soon he turns his steps toward
the beautiful prairies and valleys Of the free,
hopeful and mighty West. TO the Eastern
man this is incompreheusible until he tries
it; it was SO with me, until l came to Hutch
inson; but soon i learned to understand
the constant influx Of new corners, the rapid.

the sudden coming and passing Of the rail-
road, the extraordinary and stable growth
OF the town, together with the pure healthful
climate, good water, rich soil, and moral, re-
fined population SO intoxicated &c, that en-
thusiastically felt that this country is good
enough for me, and good enough for any
body; and after ample reflection | haven't

Hutchinson was commenced last winter,
