The grand carnival, which has been ap pointed by eoaie malevolent, conclave in the church social, to be annually observed with dec honor, in our city,. is now rapidly ap proaching; and already have extensive pi e parattona commenced looking forward to the period when confusion is to bo .the only law,, and sour-lempered housewives the gentle deities, "tlouse hunting is the order- of tte dayV' Ail along t!ie thoroughfares, from the earliest hour of morning that bren'kfast can be dispatched, nnu the baby cradled to the setting back of the tide of vveary life, to wards the inhabited parts of tow n bustling forms, in petticoat, (for to the softer sex J intrusted the selection of our next year's do niicil) taay be seen wildly rushing about, with . anxious dusty faces and jaded gait.

Houses, in many parts of the city, can be obtained for nearly half what they cost hist spring, and still build ing is going forward quite as briskly as ever. There is some faint hope now that we shall be able, eventually, to pride ourselves upon u park, in the upper part. of the city, of sufficient extent to answer the great pur pose of healthful ventilation. Thil ohjeet. most devoutly to be wished for. has been de feiUeJ many times by the strong money in fluence brought to bear, against it f anl the e:f)i-t opposed to the present project, though vigorously withstood, has eoroe near working its end. The Mnyor's veto of" the proposi tion tc- reduce the area of the intended park, is-only another instance ol his broad and correct views upon all questions which per tain to the physical and moral welfare of the people, and gives much encouragement to those humane advocates of .health and com fort lir the masses, who liave been, obliged to light so strenuously against the worshipers of the money-king. The argumeuts made use of by the opponents ol the measure arc ceitah.Iy of a most futile character, and fn the fa -e of common sense, such as we really think liberal-minded men would be ashamed to pronounce. ... The policy pursued for decorating our pub lic grounds with shade trees, by thosa who have the matter in hand, seems sufficiently ridiculous, to any one who has ever planted and watched the growth of a foicst tree. Every year thrifty sapliug? are torn from theii rich and genial mountain soil. and. after having their tender roots squeezed. up into n hall and exposed for weeks to thedry'air and hot son, are transported to the unwholesome gravel cf the park, where trimmed like bean pole without si single bough lei t. except the jone topnu.f-t twig, they linger out a sickly existence of One summer, and make place for similar utjfortnnuU-3 the following spring.
