EASTERN SUMMARY.
BOSTON AND NEW ENGLAND.
~Formerly, Boston was quite famous for the
amount of its ; Ship-Building—as many as forty
,vessels hum beenseen at one time on the stocks.
But this brajudi of . business is now quite depress
ed, since now, there are only five ships in process
of construction at this port. Indeed,• the marl
4ime,business on the . Atlantic was some years ago
tit/ profitable, :that such numbers were led to en
gage to etteeed the demand, and the same
result:has:folio-Wed .as from the same clnse, on
the': Webtern' rivers; the competition has been so
great,as ruin many of the -rivals.
semis ! that Nei , York is not to stand solitary
and alone, in the Honor Don to Assassins. This
'city contains not a few' persons such as those who
'got up du; ileitionitratiMi in the Empire City, to
the memory of Orsini - and kerri. And last week
' - -
a- _ procession of similar character paraded the
streets" While the speeches and resolutions were
equally reckless. Addresses were made in four
languages, while a letter of sympathy in the ob
ject o!the, meeting was ready_from the notorious
William Lloyd '
Garrison. Scenes such as these,
and sentiments such, as were expressed at these
Meetings, prove most coachusively the inflammable
and dangerous character ef a part of the foreign
population ' , congregated about our large cities.
These memwould not be slow to advocate a simi
lar courseln this, or any other country, if neces
sary to , ,theAccomplishment, of their designs.

promotion of the cause of Christ in the salvation
of men. A'majority of the pew-holders refused to
'permit the church to be opened for night meet
ings. Yet this very disappointment was one of
',the,ehlef 'things leading to the organization of a
•new Evangelical church in Boston, and all the
advances that have since been made on the part
of the Orthodox. For eight pepsons, nearly all
,young men, since they were hindered froni having
evening meetings in the house of God, formed

another was added. ,(These nine men were in the
