After spend ing perhaps, one of the most pleas ant dars and nights of our trip, we journeyed on to Buffalo, N. Y. This city is destined to be the second largest city in the state of New York- Here we were impre-sed with thej immense wealth which has centered at this point. Buffalo Is noted f r its beautiful streets and handsome resid ences. Delaware Avenue perhaps represents more wealth than any other street in any American city. This street is eleven miles in length and on each side, is built the hand somest residences, costing from frty to two hundred thousand dollars each It has two ro as of shade trees on each side walk, the street and walks are verv broad and in fro . of each resi dence, is a be -.utifui" lawn or, park containing staturary, fountains, flow ers, and everything that will serve to make it, "a beauty to behold" The no fence law," seems to prevail here, vou do not see any sigu of a fence, not eyeu a little rail enclosure. Ad rhe beauty is exposed 10 the passers by, and you can plainly see that each tries to excel! his neighbor in having the handsomest giounds.
