Starting from Fort Augustus we turn south at Smith’s corner—-where Mr. James Smith resides, whont ‘* the corner’ took its name ; and who is a kind and sociable gentleman, and does a res- pectable business in the commercial line, and who possesses one of the most nicely situated homesteads 1 have seen on the [sland (an old subscriber and admirer of the EXAMINER), we proceed south through the charming agricultural settlement of Monaghan Road, where the hospitable people, the beautiful corn fiel ds, and the comfortable farm houses greet you on either side. With pleasant thoughts and fond remembrances we continue our course to Lake Verd, where we are hailed by our old acquaintances with their genial welcomes and their sunny smiles. Here, too, the results of thrift and industry are manifest on every side.

William 4. Van- derbilt, now the possessor of at least $100, 600,000, passed inost of his life farming on Staten Island, whence he was pitch-forked into the New York Central vice-presidency by his father,to his own great astonishment. He was born in Kast Broadway, once a sub- stantial street, but now fast falling into de- cay, and none of the house of Vanderbilt are ever seen there. Cyrus W.

This calculation well repre- sents the diference between the two cities. Practicaily sama are no small houses or cottages in New York, and large buildings are the rule ; in Philadelphia they are the xception, and in that place there are miles upon iniles of little cosy dwellings suitable for families of small means. Architectural- ly, perhaps, the effect ia not good, but-the immense moral and physical benefits which recrue from the isolation of families:make up fer this. One looks with far more pleasure upon the dull, flat expanse of Philadelphia than upon the reeking tene- ment lined streets of New York, where human beings are packed together in sach a way that it isa wade almost how they breathe. A walk through the tenement districts in hot weather, or any weather for that matter, is depressing in the ex- treme. it will be a pity if ue remedy can rasted. two millions of | be found for these evils before a pestilence, | | i i } ithe low lands of the which will decimate the city, results.
