A num ber of vehicles have passed over it daily since Monday last, from Northumberland, and Irom the Union county shore. There will be no scarcity ol ice this year, il per sons do not neglect securing it in time. There are a number ol ice houses in town, but not as many as there should be. Ice, in warm weather, is now considered not only a luxury hut a necessity. If some one would put up a large ice house lor the sale of ice during the summer, the business would, we Ihink, not only prove profitable, but a great comlort and convenience to many, who are not provi ded with ice houses. fC7 IIkavy Blasting.

Among the public edifice erected have been 16 churches, 1 bank, 5 public halls, 27 factories and foundries, 3 school houses, 1 railroad depot, 1 market and 3 hotel. The whole number ol buildings of oil kinds, erected during the year, was about 2.")0D. This is about in the same proportion as the two previous years. According lo the census taken in the summer of 1830, there were 61,202 houses in the city and county. The num ber erected in the three and a hall years that have since elapsed has been about si750.
