to a tVrald man: ' >

the business section o' the city. And
before I reached my desiiiidtlon, I
was almost forced to the conclusion
that; I had si tiflft the wrong place.
Albaiiy-has undergone such a. trans
formation during a few months that I
hardly know her." .* , J&SSi
That, in a few words, sums up tie
history o" a recent short period of this
city’s history. During less th’nn a year
the business district has had added
to it several handsome buildings, and
a number of others have been greatly
Improved. Washington street lias been
partially pared, and excavations nave
been made for the paving of the reBt
of that bysy thoroughfare. Sidewalks
have received similar attention, anil
tile improvement of pavements is be
ing extended with the least possible
belay.
Everywhere we see bustle anil ac
tivity. That spirit pervades, the busl-
n"ss district, the residence section and
the suburbs. It has become a paft
arid parcel of Albany,‘'and neVer fails
to. Impress newcomers.
