Improvements in the Third Ward. In this ward the spirit of improvement rages to a great extent. Taking down old stores and dwelling houses, and erecting magnificent stores in their places, is now the order of the day. But thegreat- est spirit of improvement prevails in Liberty street, between Broadway and Greenwich street. This part ¢f the street is undergoing extensive improvements ; it is being widened 17 feet—12 feet onthesouth side and 6 on the north. Therefore all the dwelling houses and stores have been taken down, the own- ers intending to erect handsome stores in their places. Some of our leading dry goods merchants are erecting these stores for their own business; thus they are determined to mako this a handsome and important street. White marble seems to bo the favorite material for fronts, which will show a great contrast to those of Doy street, which are all brown stone fronts. We understand that the Jersey City ferry will be removed from the foot of Cort- landt to the foot of this street, which has a larger slip and better accommodations thaa that of the Cortlandt street slip. In Murray and Barclay streets, the improvements Aro numerous and expensive. These streets are now becoming a business portion of this great metrope- lis. A great number of the loading mercantile houses of the city are moving from the First ward into this ward, and the improvements are so numer- ous that it promises ere long to become one of the finest wards in the lower part of the city. It will be seen by the table that over one million dollars are invested in building, in this ward. NEW STORES IN LIBERTY STREET. D. B.

Similar communications were also read from Cey- lon, Madras, Orissa, and from Whampoa and Hunge k China. Those from Madras and Orissa were culiar interest. y. Mr. Winslow, of the for- mer mistion, writes:—‘* We received notice of the anit of generous grant (¢1,500) of your society to ua, this | year, with much thankfulness. There is every en- | couragement needed to goon in this work. The press in India is but just beginning to exert its proper power. Yet, already, to some extent, is the native mind aroused by its influence, and great numbers of educated natives are forsaking idolatry, though, alas! not therefore becoming Christians. Colpor- teurs are commencing a good work. The Madras Bible Society has some twelve at work in diferent arts of the country.” The letter ef Rev. J. Buck ey of the latter mission, shows that their tract operations are conducted with great efficiency, and with the rich blessing of God. The influence of the Christian press, at the present time, is probably greater in Orissa than “in any other part of India \ letter’was presented from J. B.

Negotiations are pending for « connection with the Bos- ton, Concord. and Montreal Railroad, at Wells river, and no doubt is entertained that an arrangement will be made satisfactory to all parties ‘The rapid increase in the supply of gold and silver bul- lion, particularly the former, has created « great deal of speculation in the publie mind, relative to the probable effect upon the currency, upon prices for property, upon funded securities, and upon the operations of commerce, generally. We have shown the effect on the paper cur- reney of the country, of such an accession to the supply of precious metals. and the probable result of the move- mont now going on. An expansion of payer credits is sure to follow any increase in the basis of bank circulation, and we know very well what the result of too great an inflation will be. We may realize all the evils of a revulsion during the receipt of large amounts of the precious metals—aS much, nud perhaps more powerfully, than during more ymited receipt’. ‘The expansion may as far beyond a large sty as beyond a small supply of -pee'e; and in event, a sudden with drawal of pul confidence would be attended with WOry divast results, All this might happen without any redvet the receipts of gold dust from California; and. if we exe not much mistaken in our ealeulations. wil, ulUmately svtest many of the fine projects, and rain many of the extiavagnnt calewlations. we are now in the mid-t of, It may be several years before even the f.intest indicat of an unfavorable change in financial afleirs eppear; and it mey be that frequent checks and reactions will serve to prevent a great revulsion, and place things upon a permanent basis, by giving greater thne for the developement of the resources of the country.

Nearly sixty millions of gold have, within the past four years. passed into the hands of the people—into active | circulation, This has enabled railroad companies to ne- gotiate imenze amounts of bonds—enabled States, citics, towns and counties, to lend their credit for the construction of works of internal improvement, ph has filled the markets with paper promises to pay, to an unlimited extent, This supply of an autho- rived basis has given an impetus to the establishment of new banks in nearly every State in the Union, which, in return. hare lorgely increased the banking circulation, and greaily enlarged the area of credits. All these move- ments may go on for years without coila) The receipts of gold may be large enough to meet all the | wants of trade, and to éustain public confidence, What- ever may be the retult of the paper movement of the day, We have little to apprehend from any change in the value or relative value of the precions me are enter. tained by many thot the value of gold must largely de- precia the event of the supply continuing for any length of time at the present rate. For the purpose of showing how slight the foundation is for such an impres- sion, we annex a table showing the relative value of the two metals, gol and silver, from 1344 up to 1816. ug to the price paid by the mint of Great Britain; yvare V Prevent ¥ Fixe Gorn ro Free Sinyen ‘old t0 Silver 1 to 11400 ltwils0 seeveed 00.11,708 1 to 11.315 vee] to 11.100 «1to has been no change in Great 1 still lees in that value in the United States is Within the period covered by the table, the produetion of gold and sliver in the world has reocked realy two thousand millions of dollars, duxing the production of which the relative value of the ty metals has experienced but clight alterations.
