This might be made—and we have no hesitation in saying that it ought to be—one of the handsomest quarters There are some spots, say in the neighborhood of Fifty-eighth street, which already Take for example such a cottage as the one built by Mr. Rumsey, late president of the Suffolk Bank. It is a cottage in true English style, standing well back from the street, with a good pair of lungs on oth sides of it ; that is, if we remeinber right, it isa two story house, 40 or 50 feet square, and standing somewhere abont the centre of 100 feet square of ground, and surrounded with flowers, shrubbery, &c.

We appeal to the ladies; and it this article should es- cape their eye, we appeal to the gentlemen to show it to them, and ask them if it would not be delight- ful to have at least one-half mile square of this city built up ina cheap cottage style—one family to one house—each cottage wholly surrounded with court- yard, garden, flowers, shrubbery, &., and the whole renting for from $500 to $1,000 per annum, or costing from $5,000 to $10,000 in all? The number of families in this city, salaried gentlemen and others, living on incomes of from $600 to $1,000, or even including $1,500 people, is very great. Our stores, commission houses, banks, insurance companies, lawyers’ offices, &c., are full of them—all genteel, respectable, well bred and well cducated people, and often with better pretensions to refinement thin many who live between the Fourth and Sixth avenues on from $2,000 to $10,000 per annum. Now tell us where this class of people are to live, unless at the rate of two families to a house ; and the house is yet to be built big enough to quietly hoid two families, let alone a dozen. are these people to live? Where are the houses to hold them? There is scarcely a dozen desirable $7,500 honses for single families for sale in all the city; and a most remarkable fact it is too. No such Ask our builders why they do not build seventy-five bandred dollar houses, and they will tell you it cannot be doue. you insist upon building a house costing $5,000 upon a $3,000 lot ; that is, the house costing twive the value of the lot.

Well may it be said that man makes the town, God the country; and no wonder so many are anxious to get away from so much that man has done, to see some- thing of what higher powers can do. We have only one word to add, and thatis, that at this present ino. ment it is not too late to appropriate some portions of the town to these Rumsey cottages, and we say, as Decatur did before Tripoli, carpe diem. But we have wandered. When we began this article it was our intention to mention some of the principal first class improve- ments ‘between Forty-second and Thirty-fourth streets, chiefly on Murray Hill. braces the distributing reservoir and Crystal Palace, and the territory burnt over with the Crystal Palace fever; and it would not do much harm if some of it were burnt over again, and with the Vulcan fever, THIRTY-NINTH STREET. In coming down town, we believe the firat im- provements begun this year, this side of Forty-se- cond street, are on Thirty-ninth street, between Fifth and Sixth avenues. Onthe south side the Kilpat rick Brothers are building two three story and- high basement brown stone houses, 25x50 feet, ined at about $13,000 each, about $3,000 a $3,500.

And on the north side of the same street, 200 feet west of Fifth avenue, the brothers Barton are about breaking ground for two brown stone houses, 20x42, with a 14 feet extension, precisely like those they are now finishing in Forty-second street. THIRTY-EIGHTH STREET. Tt appears to be now settled that this is to be, in all respects, a first-class street. It is the crowning street in point of height, and might be called the key stone, or arch street, for on some of the avenues (we believe Lexington, Fourth and Fifth) the water runs both northerly and southerly from this street. On the north side of this street, between Sixth avenue and Broadway, Mr. Robert C. Voorbies, builder, has just finished the mason work of five brown stone houses, 20x55, four stories, and high basement, and sub-cellar. but suppose, when dore, about $12,000. On the south ide, a little east of Sixth avenue, and opposite the six brown stone houses which Reu ben Wood has finished thia year, Mr. Lovelace, mason, is now commencing six brown stone houses for Mr. Thomas J. Ireland, five of them 21 and one 20 feet front, four stories and high basement. On the north side of the street, near Fifth avenue, Col. Devoe is now blasting and laying the founda tion of a large and elegant house, 25x74 feet, which he designs for himself. Still further east, between Lexington and Fourth avenues, Messrs. Topping & Barr, masons, are bnild- ing seven houses on four lota. They are to be three stories and high basements, or a compound of the English and American styles, 14:6x60, brown stone. We hear other improvements spoken of, bat not yet begun. Lota on this street are worth from $5,500 to $4,000, and some cannot be bought for lew than $5,000.

The honses uli stand back seven feet, on both sides of the strect, which gives the street, the whith of Madisoa avenue, within one fovt. And we believe the entire north side of the street between Fifth aud Sixth avenues, is re- stricted to brown stone front houses—and also aginst churches and stables. We hawdly need remind the reader that the most princeg and highly a)istocratic house in the city, (of course we include the grounds,) builé avd lately sold by Covgn- try Waddell, stands npon the as yet unleveled apex of Murray till, west side of Fifth avenue, covering the whole front between Thirty-seventh and Phirty- eighth streets. It seems almost a pity to destroy # ploce Which possesses 60 many natural beauties, and which would always form a refreshing object to the eye in the midat of the brick piles by which it ix Costined to Lo-auredmided: We hear that Dr. Spring's congregation taik of building a church here. {f they do, they would consult both good taste qpd ap~ propriateness of site, by building it on tl® unle- velled mount, Fora loug time—in fact, until within the last year—Waddell and Embury have stood alone iu their dignity on the north side of this street. Now, it is well-nigh all built up. ‘There is scarcely a single va- cunt lot left west of Waddell’s, unless it be the one hundred feet of ground intervening between Wacdell and Burton, which, we understand, is owned by Moses Taylor, who talks of erecting thereon a double house, some sixty feet square, or, at any rate, somewhat on the ground and not all in the skies. These narrow houses, with a heavenward lcok, are most unearthly things, unless designed for hotels and boarding houses. ‘They would be improved by associating with some rural features—such as trees and shrubberies, which would conceal the slenderness of their bases. Next west of Moses Taylor's splendid location, Mesars. Topping & Barr arenow building two first class brown stone houses for Mr. J. H. Burton, 21:6 x55, four stories and high basement. Lots are here worth $4,500. The houses will be worth some $15,000. Contiguous to Burtof's, on the west, are two firs class brown stone hous’s, owned and now being fin- ished by Messrs. Topping & Barr, the gentlemen above named, 16x55, four stories, English base- ment. Lots valued at $4,500, a3 above stated; houses about $12,000. Mr. Topping designs to finish in su- perior style. From Topping’s houses to Embury’s is, say 65 feet, 40 of which Mr. Embury reserves as a little eyelet hole for nature to peep through, and on the remain- ing 25 fect, next to Topping’s, we are informed that Mr. Chase ix about to erect a very handsome house for himself, 25x60, brown stone, four stories, and English basement style. West of Embury's, extending towards Sixth ave- nue, Messrs. Sinclair & Johnson are now finishing, for some half a dozen different owners, twelve brown stone houses, from 20 to 23:6x50, and one 56 feet deep—all four stories and high basements. So much for new houses on the north side of Thir- ty-seventh street. Gn the south side the lots cute into market at a lower figure by at least $500 than they did on the north side. The consequence was that it was ear- liest built upon. Mr. John Just and District Attor- ney McKeon have ied the way in this part of the street. The latter has reason to be proud of his house, from the good taste displayed in its construe- tion. On each side of the District Attorney, Messra, Keech and Hunt have each finished a handsome house last spring. And next west of Just, one ofthe Kilpatricks has nearly completed a brown stone house, 25x60, four stories and high basement; valued at some $15,000. Lots here are worth at the lowest $4,000, In faet, we would sooner pay $5,000 on the north side, and $4,500 on the south, than pay the prices many have paid for lots in other locali- ties. Crossing Filth avenue, eastwardly, between Fifth and Madison—on the southeast corner of Filth and Thirty-seventh streets, Mr. Edward Stoue owns some 68 feet on the avenue by 100 ov the strect, in- cluding the well known cottage there standing. Contiguous to this ground, on the east, Mr. Stone is now finishing, or rather Messrs. Pierce & Dennison are for him, two splendid brown stone English base- ment houses, 20x60, five atories, and with unusual expense— say, costing to build, not less than $15,000; plumbing alone over $1,200 each house. It is un- common to lavish so much money on a twenty foot house. But happily for the progress of American art and science, our men of wealth fling their arms about with most enviable freedom. They are tram- meled with no troublesome historical recollections nor forbidding architectural precedents. Every one who has the means, and some who havn't, can build each as he pleases. Every taste is gratified, and every experiment tried. Builders and archi- tects are constantly exercising their ingenuity to in- vent some new mode of constructing houses with more room inside, and more comforts and conveni- ences, and at leas (and sometimes at more) expense, And while on this topic we will mention, as a speci- men of a newly invented house, the entire front of ten brick houses on the east side of Firth avenue, between Thirty-third and Thirtyfourth streets, just completed by Mr. W. B. Astor. We will venture to say they are unlike anything ever pat together in the shape of a house. It would be utterly impossible to describe them—nor could any architect draw a plan of them from memory. Indeed, we doubt if any ar- chitect could imitate them if he were to try. It is our opinion that two people might play at hide and seek fora month im one of these houses and never find each other. One new and decidedly good thing they have got, and that is a fire safe built in the wall for the preservation of plate and jewelry. Builders and architecta make a note of this. Next adjoining, east of Mr. Stone's honse, above pamed, Messrs. Arnold and Zabriskie are building, each one for himself, two handsome brown stone houses, 25x60, four stories and high basement, A little farther east, Mr. Poster has just broken ground for two first class houses, 25x60, four stories and high barement. Next cast of Mr. Phelps, on the south-east corner of Madison avenue and Thirty-seventh street—that is, on the south side of Thirty seventh street, directly in the rear of Mr. Gearge D Phelps, on the north side of Thirtysixth street—Mr. Lorenzo Moses is building a first claxs brown stone house for Domine Vermilyea, of the Datch Reformed church, 25x60, four stories and high basement. On the north-west corner of Fourth avenue and Thirty-seventh street Mr. Talbot Olyphant, (brother of Robert M. Olyphant who, in conjunction with his brother-in-law Mr. Murray, of Murray Hill, is building on the north-west corner of Madison avenue and Thirty-sixth street,) or Mr. Moses above named for him, is building an elegant brick house for bim- eelf, 45:643, three stories and high basement. And here we must remark that many of the most splendid and expensive houses in the city are now being constructed of brick instead of brown stone Brown stone has evidently become so common that the tide has turned in favor of brick again, which i« supposed by many to be more dorable than brown stone, especially when the latter is not freely exposed to the sun's rays, which are supposed to have « hard ening infinence.
