City Improvements—A Couple of Sug
gestion*.
The spirit of city improvement, as manifest
ed in the fillingup ofthe blanks about town,with
handsome edifices, soetns to have roooived no
check, despite the approach of tho hot months;
those shrivel up the channels of trade. The
impetuous tide of business, which riots as it
runs, in tho winter—making itself heard in the
rattle of drays, ari l the clatter of hoofs; and
seou in the busy forms that hurry through the
stroets, big with important missions, perplexed
with entangling calculations, or hopeful with
anticipated results, —this tide we say, is losing
its wintry ardor, and will soon be dwindled iuto
ft summer stroam, feebly murmuring as it runs.
But the builders nro still busy as ever: so busy
in fact, that, much to our regret, they do not
pauso to consider, and reflect. They build ra
pidly and handsomely, but do they build com
fortably? Not so comfortably as they might.
Wo do not wish now to recur to that reprehen
sible practice of crowding four, five, six, and
even eight tenements upon a lot. Wo have al
ready condemned that policy, and we wait for
commentaries upon it from tho hot weather,
which wo are satisfied will demonstrate its evil
effects. Wo only wish, at this present writing,
to make a couplo of suggestions, which are in
valuable in this climato, and which should be
adopted by all who are building dwelling hous
es, in whioh comfort is considered a desidera
tum.
Wo never built a house in all our life—wo
have superintend a little, [ex-officio,) hero and
there—worrying tho builders with inquiries, and
favoring them with suggestions, some of which
wore thought very good, some of which were
laughed at, und few of which were adopted; but
we have planned houses and built —-air castles;
and waare satisfied that we could plan a very com
fortable domic'le, if we had a “regardless of ex
pense” clause in the contract. But it is not ne
cessary that we should be able to appeal to past
practicc,in order to recommend our present sug
gestions; it is only necessary to have passed a
few nights in a room on tho northern side of a
house, in this city during the hot months,the said
room having no communication with tho south
side of the building. Wo havo so slept, or en
deavored to sleep,and we know,that a night spent
in such a locality, is tho next thing to being in
hot water, or under the Equator. Tho obvious
inference from this, is, that nil sleeping apart
ments, if possible, should front South, from
which point of the compass we get our most re
freshing breezes. But this is not the only in
ference. Another one which is quite as impor
tant, is, that the South front should be pierced
with numerous windows, and that balconies
should be placed upon the south side wherever
it is possible to do so. Pshaw! puts in somo
sapient reader, who didn’t know that! Wo do
not pretoml to any discovery; but this we do
claim, that if these things are well known, it is
etrange, and it is deplorable, that the know
ledge is not put to practical use. We daily pass a
new and handsomo double tenement building,re
cently put up, which has a fine southern expo
sure, (though it fronts cast.) which has only
eight windows on the south side, and all of them
small. It should hare sixteeu windows, ami
all of them large; and if this had been done,
the tenemont would bo one of the most desir
able residences in tho whole city, and would
command a couple of hundred more per annum,
in rent, than it now brings. If it were our
house, wo should put in tho windows even now.
There are numerous other new buildings re
cently erected, or in progress, which are all
built in equal apparant ignorance of these facts.
When itia so easy to makoa house comfortable,
and delightful, wo must confess to getting out
of patience sometimes, when wo see such impor
tant considerations lost sight of and forgotten.
Another suggestion—which like our former
one, is known to every body, and by every
body disregarded. In constructing a passage
way, or hall, where the plan requires it to bo
placed either on tho eastern or western side of
a building, always put it on tho western side.
Why ? booftiise you thus screen the chambers
from tho sun, from one o'clock until sunset.—
Tho oppsite policy secures to the chambers the
temperaturo of an oven, by exposing them to
the hot rays of tho sun, for several hoors when
those rays are hottest and fiercest.
Those suggestions cost nothing in thoir adop
tion—they securo a degree of comfort to resi
dences, which can be attained in no other way,
and wo trust they will command duo considera
tion from those who are now engaged in adorn
ing and boautifying our already lovely city.
Breakers Ahead.
Was there over a period in the history
of the world, so characterized by rumors of war.
and “ notes of dreadful preparation,” us is this
present poriod at which we write ? Santa Anna
wants to fight Uncle Sam through spite, and
•boat the Mecilla Valley—John Bull wants to
fight about the fisheries—the Nephew of my
IPnele wants to fight, besauye hip Unole did be
beforo him, and because the army is thirsty for
I blood und spoil, anil because tho army is tho
Empire—Nicholas wants to fight through sheer
I greediness—Austria, through a natural love for
| tho horrors of war—and so, on, to the end ofthe
: chapter. The whole world is arming and equip
| ping for somo mighty struggle,the sullen murmur
j of whose roar is daily growing more and more co
j herent. Surely all this is not to end in smoke !
, We are on the evo of stirring times, and such
j times ! Tho world will never have seen the like
J before! War has become ton-fold the monster
| which it was in days gono by; and the killing
j art hath attained to that degree of perfection
| through tho devices of man, and with the aid of
science, that “ annihilation” may almost take
that place in tho bulletins, where once Stood the
words “ killed and wounded.” But we have
not time to follow out the thread of our fancy—
it requires no prophetic ken to predict a coming j
I storm, such as never before swept the earth, j
and we conclude this rather cursory paragraph, j
| with a very trite pieco of advice to our readers— !
that in the approaching crisis it would be well, j
to have all things ready; and that due prepara- 1
tion be mado for 44 standing from under” (what
a daugorous place is that under!) when the !
crash comes.
Bring it to Savannah.
The last number of the Georgia Home j
Gazette, a large, handsome, and excellent liter
ary and family weekly, published in Augusta,
contains a card from tho Senior editor, James
M. Smytiik Esq., in which he offers for sale i
his interest (ouo half) in the paper. Tho Gui
zette, has a subscription list of 2,300 subscribers I
and wo know of few better openings than is i
now offered to those ambitious to euter upon
the arduous duties of the career editorial.
Although our city is already blest, {?) with
an abundance of daily sheets ; wo cannot but j
feel that she lacks something yet, in tho way
of newspapers, and that something, is just such
a sheet as the Home Gazette. Wo wish its pro
prietors could bo induced to remove it to Sa
vannah. So refined and intelligent a com
munity as ours, would not fail to patronize it
with generous liberality; while there is quite a
large amount of literary talent here, which,
were the Gazette published in Savannah, would
quickly seek its columns for devolopeinent. !
Lastly, our growing importance as the only
seaport of any importance, in the State, togeth
er with our connexions by Railroad with tho
most thickly settled portions of Uoorgia, would
secure to the Gazette, a largo and growing cir
culation without the city limits, fully equal,
if not exceeding what it will command through
its present location.
Mr. Smtthr intimates that his terms will be
found easy, and accommodating—while we ro
grot that he should feel it necessary to retiro
from his post, wo trust he may bo euabled to
do so, in such manner as will be agreeable to
him, and to his successor. Our best wishes at
tend the Gazette, ami both of its proprietors.
A Skdch of llic Sultan.
Last Friday-three days since, 1 saw the
man who is the nominal head of that ill-com
pacted und scarcely cohering empire, once hold
in rigorous obedience by tierce und mighty
monarehs, whose names were tho dread of Chris
tendom. From a wooden palace immediately on
the Bosphorus—a finer is building for him, of
marble, and of florid Pullndinn architecture— I
rode forth, on a handsome black horse, a pale
slender man, dressed in a blue frock and pan
taloons, wearing the tarboosh or red cap, which
here with tho French, had taken the place both
of the hat and tho turban. Before him rode his
Pashas, high officers of state and war, the men
who dispose of the money that comes into his
treasury, stout men, for the most part, with tol
erably florid complexions. They wore dressed !
in the same garb with himself. The enormous j
turbans and barbaric robes which officers of this
class wore twenty five or thirty years ago, are
now only to bo found in tho Museum of An
cient costumes, established by this Sultan’s fa
ther in the Atmcdian or Hippodrome. As Sul
tan Abdool Medjid rode leisurely along, wom
en who were standing in groups beside the way
reached forth petitions wrapped in green silk,
which were taken by some person belonging to
tho Shi tan’s train, and handed to an officer on
horseback, carrying a box in which they wero
deposited. It is said that the Sultan is always
careful to read them, lie is represented us a
man of mild, animable disposition, who would
be glad to govern his einpiro better than he
does, if he only knew how, or if those who sur
round him would only let him.— IF. C. Urg

Transaction of tlie Rot liseli lids.
A recent writer gives some interesting partic
ulars upon this subject:
In twelve years about five hundred million
dollars were raised by the house for different
powers, by way of loan or subsidy, which were
distributed in nearly tho following proportions:
For England, two hundred millions: for Austria
fifty millions: for Prussia, forty millions; for
Russia twenty five milions; for Naples, fifty
millions: for France, eighty millions; for sever
al German courts, four millions; for Brazil,
twelve millions, exclusive of various other large
sums. The remarkable success of the Roths
childs,setting aside the great opportunities which
they have enjoyed from favorable circumstan
ces, may bo attributed to their strict adherence
to two fundamental maxims. The first of these,
in compliance, with tho dying injunctions of
the founder of their house, is the conducting all
their affairs entirely in common. Every pro
position of magnitude mado to one of them is
submitted to the deliberation of all. No propo
sition is adopted until thus fully discussed, and
then executed by united efforts. A second
principle is. not to aim at exorbitant profits, to
set definite limits to every operation, und so far
as human prudence and foresight can do, to ren
der it independent of accidental influences.
In this maxim lies ono of the main secrets of
their strength.
Worth Remembering.
Dr. Johnson concludes his life of the brilliant
but unfortunate Savage, with this remark :
“This biography will not be wholly without its
use, if those who, in confidence of superior capa
cities or attainments, disregard tho common
maxims of life, shall be reminded that nothing j
will supply the want of prudence; and that j
negligence and irregularity, long-continued,
will make knowledge useless, wit ridiculous, and
genius contemptible.”

The Colliers of Engluml.
It wns in the oarlydusk of the evening that we
i took a walk with a friend to see tho laborers as
i they came up from a coal mine, where they had
been delving from early dawn to that rao
i nient, some 300 feet under tho surface of the
i earth. The mouth of said mine was a pit or
! well, down which, of course.tho eye could pene
trate but a short distance. The operatives were
drawn up in a basket or car, suspended by a
strong rope, after the manner of a bucket in a
well, the motive power being a steam engine,
which was at work hard by. They came up
some half-dozen at a time, men, women, aud
children, clothed in rags, besmeared with dust,
and black with coal, conversing in a jargon
which to us was entirely unintelligible, nllhough
they called it English. Tho friend who was
with us (an Englishman) informed us that the
women were employed chiefly as carriers: that
j is to say, they carried the coal in baskets from
I one shaft to another, and up the long ladders
i that extended from ono vein to another, un
; til it was landed at the foot ofthe “main shaft,”
whence it is drawn up by steam as they had
! just been drawn up,
Some of the veins, however, were so low that
j they could not stand upright in them, and in
i those cases the burden was placed upon n car,
j and drawn by a Woman creeping on all fours,
j with a belt about her waist,to which tho rope of
the car was fastened. He said moreover, that
I probably many of these women and children
! bas not seen the sun for months; that the chil
j dren generally tended the gates that were plac
ed at intervals in the veins, and that they were
j for the most part in total darkness. Ho fur
j tHer informed us that so close was the contino-
I meat of the mines, that the workmen in that
mine could not understand half that should bo
said to them by one from another mine .ire
miles distant; and he assured us, as a positive
: fact, that in Very mine un officer went to arrest
j a man, and ou inquiring of a girl some dozen
j years of age, she knew no such man; but on
i hearing a description of his person,replied, “Ob,
| yes; tho man’s old Snooks;” and that same “old
I Snooks” was her father but she did not know
! hint by His real name.
| Whether all this was true or not, one thing is
certain, and that is that nowhere upon tho face
of tho earth have we ever seen a sot of
j men, women and children who bore such un
j mistakable evidences of stoli I ignorance, inor
dinate labor and utter brutality. We havo been
on some plantations where it was evident that j
iho negroes had a “hard master,” but wo sol
emnly declare wo had never seen any thing to
compare at ull with these colliers. In all intel
lectual and physical points of view, tho slavos
of the South are immeasurably in udvuuce of
them. —Gospel Herald.
Valuable Cargo of Copper.
On Sunday last the propeller Globe arrived
;at this port from the Saulte do Marie, having
on board a cargo of two hundred tons of Massa- i
Copper, some of the masses of which wore the
purest and richest specimens of native copper i
ever taken from any ofthe mines; one weighed be
tween three and fqur tons. It was from the
Cliff and the Minnessotta mines. Tho cargo
was probably the most valuable ever brought
to this city, being worth at tho market value
of S7OO a ton, the round sum of one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars. About 50 tons of it
was landed at the smelting works at the low
er part of the city, and the balance was ship
ped to Pittsburgh. We understand from let
ters received from the Copper Regions that
there are now ready for shipment at tho vari
ous mines, about 2,000 ton-, worth one million
four hundred thousand dollars. Wo are glad
to hear that our hardy aud onterprising miners
are beginning to reap so rich a harvest for
their labors uud deprivations. A better day is !
before them.
The resources and capacities ofthe mining re- i
gious wore never half so fully developed as du
ring the past white . A million an l a half of I
copper is the evidence of sit.— Detroit Tribune. I
The Aerial Navigation Experiment.
The Place d’Armes has been surrounded dai
ly for some timo by crowds of gazers, watching
the progress of the extensive and varied prep
arations for the ascension of Mr. Putin's aerial
ship to-morrow at noon. These prcperations
have gone ou rapidly, and from all appearan
ces there will bo no delay in tho departure to
morrow. The two immense balloons, the lar
gest in the world, wore being tilled with gas yes
terday, and swelled gracefully to a groat height,
though not more than half full. Thc*Gas Com
pany laid down two lines of connection pipes
from the street, one to each baloon, and M. Pe
tin was busy yesterday with his numerous assis
tants, who ull, wo believe, volunteered him their
services, in manufacturing by means of acids,
zinc, Ac., in a number of largo hogsheads, gas
of a purer quality than could otherwise be ob
tained, but which was necessary.
The long, slender fabric, call the ship, was
ull ready to have tho balloons attached to it,
and when wo left a second experiment was be
ing mado with the small steam .engine, placed
atone end, and tho large propeller screw at the
other, to see that they worked easily.
There will doubtfully be an immense crowd
in and around tho Squaro to-morrow, to witness
this daring experiment. Wo trust that where
so many hundreds of our citizens have taken an
active and pecuniary interest in this experi
ment, a regard for tho reputation of the city
will induce a general observance of order. The
police will be on the ground in force, but we
liopo the citizens themselves will see that sui
table decorum is observed.— N- O. Ficuyune,
4th inst
We regret to see a petty, detestable spirit of
uncalled for malice displayed towards Mr. Putin,
tho intrepid aeronaut. Night before last ono
of his balloons was cut. causing him a loss of
several hundred dollars in the shape of gas, Ac.
j Yesterday afternoon two persons, whose names
are fortunately for them unknown, entered the
Place d’Armes and amused themselves by
throwing sulphuric acid on ono of the balloons.
They immediately ejected in a manner by no
means agreeable to their personal feelings.
What Iho object of theseannoying and dastard
ly outrages is, we cannot lor the life of us un
derstand.— Ibid htli inst.

“It takes five hundred weight of rose leaves j
to produce one drachm by weight of the best I

A Visit to a Cubua Plantation.
j The following pleasant account of a visit to a
j plantation in Cuba was written by a gentleman
i of this city, and possesses an additional interest,
! inasmuch as the proprietor of the extensive ami
j beautiful estate described, is of Rhode Island
J origin, und well kuowu to many of our read-
I ers :
“ I had the pleasure of passing the day on
| ono of tho sugar plantations of my friend/Mr.
Win, Scott Jenckes, of this city, (Mutanzas)
mimed La. Victoria, situated on tho Cumbro, a
bout three miles in a Northwesterly direction,
and upon an elevation of more thaft 200 feet
above tho level of tho sea. We started, as is
custom in this country, at an early hour, about
o'clock,to avoid riding in the heat of the day.
Mr. Jenckes, tho owner, and a mutual friend of
ours, were of the party. This estate is tho
! smallest of three sugar estates owned by Mr. J.
! Ills largest, La Concepcion, makes annually
about 5,000 boxes, San Cirilo makes about 3.000
boxes. The homestead estate is inherited frutu
his father, Mr. Scott Jenckes, who was nt ono
time ono of the most influential citizens of Prov
idence, but thinking it lor the benefit of his
health and that of his wife, came out here, and
with his accumulated wealth, purchased aud
successfully worked these large estates.
Mr. Win. S. Jenckes, his only son, was born
in Providence, hut although he ha? passed near
ly all of his days on this beautiful island, for
the government of which he has enertained and
expresses the highest reverenco and loyalty,
has not lost one grain of that 10. e of his native
land, the land of his birth, or ono spark of pa
triotism which is ever felt by every true native
of our happy Union, aud this has been recently
evinced by his magnificent hospitality to our
late lamented Vice-President, Wm. Rufus King, !
by placing at his disposal the estuto La Victoria,
before mentioned, with ull the luxuries of tho
! land, good servants, every delicacy to suit the
j palate, and all the conveniences of luxurious
J furniture, superadded to which, uu air to j
j breathe that cannot be surpassed in tho whole j
habitable world lor its salubriousness.
Following along the road as it winds up tho !
hill, (which, by the private exertion of Mr. J., i
has been highly improved,) you cannot but be j
charmed by the delightful prospects a? they op- ;
cn before you. On tho right, you have the vast ■
expanse of the ocean, and as you turn your face
to receive tlie fresh cooling breeze, your eyes
I are delighted with its calm, placid surface; on .
the left after you have ascended half ofthe hill I
you get a view of the beautiful vallcy'of the Su- :
muri, here and there its irregular aud undulat- j
ing surface studded with the oocoanut tree,aud i
then the palm, the only truly classic tree of the ,
torrid zone. When you arrive at the summit of !
the hill,you then have a full view of tho chateau
of Mr. J., with its terrracos, observatory, audits
massive gateway; and a little to the right,
the more modest but very pretty Quinta of his
| intended son in law.
Thus wo rode aloug, feasting our every sense,
! first turning to tho ocean to take a snuff of the
fresh breeze, and ever and anon our eyes would
wander,discovering some new beauty in the de
licious tropical landscape before us until at last
we arrived at the gateway of La Victoria, from
which we could see the beautiful flower gardens
o neither side of the front entrance to tho house
’ and here and there the tall slender pine inter
spersed among the beautiful and graceful palms.
The gardens were filled with all the varied store
oftropica! flowers,tho cactus,Ac., aud also many
beautiful roses torn up from some foreign soil ‘
and brought hither to beautify this more than
beautiful spot.
The grounds, whioh extend down towards tho
ocean from the house, are laid out in a triangu
lar form, so that whatever time of day you may
walk, you will always have a line shade. The
avenues on either side aro lined with the cocoa- j
nut nnd palm, interspersed with the orange, !
lemon, lime, bauatia, and plantain, and the
spaces between are tilled with the coffee, and
spices of every tree of this clime, making a
dense shade. These are the pleasure grounds. J
au 1 separated from those tor tho culture of
tho sugar house, which occupy a distinct cn- j
closure. The grounds are here and there orna- ‘
incntcd by statues and statuettes of Washing- j
t >n, Napoleon, and other heroes, one very pret
ty one, n Venus, and one of Juan of Arc.
But I must return to a description of the
house, which is built of stone, and presents with
its terraces somewhat the appearance of a cas
tle. On tho first floor, in the centre of tho main
building, is a largo hall, some fifty feet square,
with large doors at either end for perfect venti
lation, and on either si lo there are suits of
sleeping rooms; the hall is used as a dining
room. The second story is arranged like the
first, with the exception that tho hall is used ns
a billiard room, in which there is a mostexcel
lanfc table, and all around hammocks, and large
comfortable leather sofas, so convenient for a
lounge. From tho terrace above, the view is
beautiful beyond description, for you have at j
once tho ocean, the valley, and for successive j
longues the most charming view of tho surroun- i
ding country, with the tall sugar-loaf looking
eminence in front, called tho Pan do Matquzns i
The observatory is furnished with a telescope,of I
large dimensions.
At nine o’clock we had a most delicious-break- ‘
fast, for which our early ride had given us an !
excellent appetite. After breakfast we rode up j
to view fctbo fields of young canes, the mills, i
sugar houses, Ac. Ac. The estate turns out j
about four hundred hogsheads of sugar annual- |
ly. At two o'clock we took a “siesta” of an
hour, and at three sat down at a dinner lit for I
a prince. After dinner, we wiled away tho time j
with sotne-dclicious segars, such as can bo got
only on this favored island, and just before sun- i
down, the horses having been brought, wo star- !
ted for town, where we are arrived safely, after j
having spent a most delightfully pleasant day |
and such a day ns ono can only spend in this
part of tho world.
Anirricaa I'iic-Armn,
At a recent official trial, at Woolwich, Eng.,
of Marston’s American breach loading and self
cleaning rifle, thirty-six rounds were fired, a
largo portion of the cartridges having been im
mersed in a bucket of wafer, but the arm never
once missed fire. On another occasion, ns
sinted in an English military paper, called
“The Field,” a quart of water was poured into
the barrel, and the cartridge covered with mud,
without producing any failure in the discharge.
Extensive Forgeries.
A series of extensive forgeries have just come
to light in Chicopee, Mas?. Parties living in
Springfield, heretofore esteemed ns tho most re
spectable and wealthiest citizens, nro said to be
implicated. The total amount is estimated at
more than $50,000. — Boston Times.
Mayor on n Strike.
Mr. Stubbs, Mayor of Norfolk, consents to be
come again a candidate, with the express un
derstanding. however, that his salary must be
raised to $2,000. Ho quotes the price current
of mayors in various cities, nnd very properly
determines that he cannot disparage his own
qualifications by taking less than tho market
rate.
Splendid Display.
There is to boa grand exhibition of plants of
all nations at Cheltenham, Eng., on the 12th of
July, under the immediate patronage of her

Christianity, nt an expense of $20,000 per an
num, and that tho sum total of converts made
during the lost three years, is twenty-eight.
