Ve suggest to our heavy property hold

course pursued by Mayor Davenport, lie
looks at the matter in this way That the
erection of a substantial manufactory so en
ham v.s the value of his other property that
he is iiiuch better otf than he would have
been had not the improvement been made.
The same rule would apply to the erection
of any other class of improvements. Thev

menced thc erection of it warehouse on his
property, on Front, between the property
on which Burrows'block now stands and the
old liazarr Building, upon the site of which
now stand* Hill's warehouse. He got tlx
foutid.'itioii laid when it was claimed hy an
other part) that he had extended his im
provements too far towards the riv:»r, and a
lawsuit was commenced. .Several years
were spent iu litigating the matter, nnd
then thc crisis of "7 came on and ched."d
the building mania of tho.se days. The
nndations have remained until this time
and now Mr, |firnfhl, having established
his right to build a originally intended, has
lvsuhi .d the work. The building is to be 4U
feet in front on the levc«, t!o feet deep, and
20 feet on Front street—the other 20 feet
on that street being already occupied by
be two stories high, with carriage way
through on the first I'oor. Tho atore occu

feet farther towards the river. The im
