This square or park, so long known as
st. James square, bids fair to be one of
theehoice locations in the city. The plans
that are in contemplation for the beauti-
fying Of this square, when carried out,
will change the whole character of the
neighborhoOd and bring into great de-
mand all the property fronting upon it.
Already rumors have been rife as to an
effort to purchase the Union Society prop
erty on the east of the place for the pur-
pose of erecting handsome stores and
public hall. AS soon as the property on
the northwest corner is placed upon the
market, there are persons ready to buy
it, and build stores upon it. Thus with
the Telfair Academy of Arts, Trinity
Church, and these other fine buildings, it
will become at once a very desirable 10
cality. The finest lot in this vicinity that
can be had now is that on the east side
of the square in the rear of Hanley's.
This will be sold at the court house on
Tuesday neXt.-AdU.

And Narrow Escape of Laborers In New
Hampshire.
DOVER, n. H., May "A great land
slide occurred here yesterday, causing
an interruption of railroad travel and a
large loss of property. The Boston &
Maine Railroad, few months ago,
erected temporary wooden bridge, and
since then have had large gang of men
at work building coffer-dam and other-
wise laying fou dation for new iron
bridge across the Cocheco River. Sew
eral small landslides have occurred,
but yesterday afternoon, while the
workmen were at dinner, the
climax came. The bank on
the east side of the river, which was
eighty feet high and composed of sandy
soil, gave way and carried everything be-
fore it. The Golfer dam and the whole
river is filed with debris. Derr1cks,
engines etc., and about thirty feet of the
temporary bridge were carried away, SO
that direct travel will be impeded for
sometime. The only man there at the
time of the accident was the engineer of
one of the donkey engines. He was
carried eighty feet into the river, but was
unhurt, and swara to the shore. Had
the slide occurred when the men we're
on duty, there would have been great
loss of life. Fears are entertained for the
round. house and other buildings Oh the
brink of the river.
