TI13 articles are alphabetically arranged under different heads, by refe- rence to which, in Index, any one article can be readily turned to. There is, perhaps, no other branch of the Jobbing business embracing so much detail as the Hardware, or one in which a memorandum of this kind is more needed, and especially by those not well acquainted with the business. For the convenience of general dealers wc have 1 added Blanks for other branches of trade as per Index, forming a complete memorandum book, which we will take pleasure in presenting our customers at any time. Our Stock will, be found full at all seasons to meet the wants of at home, and near by, as well as the more distant trade; and to our published list will be added all new and useful articles coming into market, of both foreign and domestic manufacture. Orders by letter will receive especial attention, and will be filled with a care and promptness that will ensure the confidence of all.

TIfa ei mini Terence of the island is about 29 miles, with an area of 14,000 acre- It has a greater population, commerce and wealth than any other cih in die United States, and is surpassed in importance by only two Other ,-ities in the world, namely. London and Paris. Its present pofra- httkra, (to 1S57, is about 700,000, which extonrls more than four miles on each river; and including the surrounding cities and villages, which are in reality a part of the city, the population will reach a million. Broadway run- through the centre of the city, and from the Battery to lOih street, in a direct tine a distance of 2% miles, andextending the entire length of the island. It is one of the finest streets in the world ; has a uniform width of SO feet, is well paved, and contains some of the f) most splendid edifices of the city. Its lower portion is occupied for the | wholesale business, and its upper section hy the principal retail stores. There are several large Parks upon it, the principal of which are the Battery at its foot, which contains about 11 acres, and affords a fine view of the Bay. The Park half a mile above, about the same size, contains the City Hall and other public buildings. Union Square at 14th Street, enclosing 33^ acres, at the south end of which stands the equestrian statue of "Washington in bronze, and Madison Square at 23rd Street, about 7 acres. The Central Park, situated between 59th and 106th Streets and 5th and Sth Avenues, embraces over 700 acres, and when completed in accordance with the plans now contemplated, will form one of the most magnificent public parks in the world. The principal business locations are in the lower section of the city. Wall-street, about half way between the Battery and Park, is the focus of the great monetary operations, and in this location the principal specu- lations in Stocks. Bonds, Houses, Lands and other merchandize, are car- ried on. It is occupied by Bankers, Brokers, Insurance Companies, Ac. Many of its buildings are costly and imposing. At its head on Broadway stands Trinity Church, the noblest ecclesiastical edifice in the land. I 8 NEW-YORK AND ITS ENVIRONS. The principal private residences are in the upper section of the city, ai.d some of them are. truly elegant. Those on Fifth Avenue and Madi- son Square surpass most others in the extravagance of cost and luxury, many of them costing each a fortune. The Hold* arc numerous, large and elegantly furnished, some of the principal of which are the Astor House, - St. Nicholas Hotel, Metropolitan, - La Farge House, New-York Hotel, Brevoort House, - Union Place Hotel, Everett House, - i.it - 7, opposite the Park.

PUBLIC BUILDINGS. The City Hall is one of the most prominent public buildings in the City, standing near the centre of the Park. In the Governor's. Eoc mi may be seen the chair in which "Washington was inaugurated first Presi- in NEW - YORK AND ITS ENVIRONS. dent of the United States, and the desk which he used while preparing his first Message to the first Congress; also numerous fine portraits of | distinguished individuals. From the cupola is a fine view of the City, Brooklyn, Williamsburgh, Jersey City, Hoboken, the Harbor, East and North Rivers, -fee. T 1 ie Custom House is located at the corner of Wall and Nassau Streets. It is built principally of marble, and not a particle of wood is used in its construction. It may be visited any time during the day. The roof affords a fine view of the Harbor. The United States Assay Office is situated in Wall-street, adjoining the Custom House. Its object is determining the value of gold brought into New- York, and preparing it for coinage by the IT. S. Mint. ( It is an office of great importance to the commerce of New- York. A single arrival from California brings it a deposit of from one and a half to two millions. The Merchants' Exchange is situated ia Wall-street, and occupies the whole block bounded by William-street, Hanover-street and | ^ Exchange Place. The front on Wall-street has a recessed portico of j V eighteen massive Grecian Ionic columns, 88 feet high by 4 feet 4 inches ' in diameter, each formed from a solid block of stone and weighing forty- five tons. They are the largest whole columns in the world, with the exception of a church in St. Petersburgh, and cost $3000 each. The Post Office, formerly the Middle Dutch Church, is situated in Nassau-street between Cedar and Liberty. The building has stood over 150 years. During the Revolutionary War it was used by the British successively as a riding-school, a prison and a hospital. It is in contemplation, as soon as a site can be decided on, to have a new build- ing better adapted to the increasing wants of the city. The New Bible House occupies the block bounded by the Third and Fourth Avenues, Eighth and Ninth-streets, and covers three- "rths of an acre of ground, the property of the American Bible Society, arge proportion of the benevolent and religious associations of the have their offices in this building. For Colleges, Libraries. Hospitals. Prisons, Asylums and charitable and religious institutions, see appendix to City Directory. — P — ! NEW-YORK AND ITS ENVIRONS. 11 V PLACES AND OBJECTS OF INTEREST. The High Bridge, at Harlem, h\ which the Croton Aaneduct is brought serosa Harlem Eirer, is the most imposing and nis aifleent work of solid masonry to be four ' in the country, and cost on« million of dollars. By this aqueduct, which is built of stone, brick and cemenf, the Croton Water is brought a distance of li rty-rive miles to the City, and is carried into The Receiving R^rnolr, which : I ['tween 70th and 86th Streets, and 6th and 7th Avenues. This covers an ana of 85 acres, and contan; 56,090,000 gallons of water ; from this il is < carried to The Distributing Rrservoir ' on 5th Avenue, between 40th and 42d Streets, which is a massive structure of solid masonry, covering over 4 acres of ground, and holding '25.000,000 gallons. From these reservoirs the water is conducted in iron pipes in every street through the city, and is carried to the top of the highest buildings. The whole work cost the City of New- York 15 millions of dollars. The Navy Yard is situated in Wallabout Bay. on the Brooklyn side of the river, and may be visited everyday except Sunday. The Nav.il Dry Dock is of itself well worth a visit. There is. perhaps, no modern structure that compares with this national work in dimensions, in the durability of the material of which it is composed, or the beauty and accuracy of its workmanship. (Srrruwood Cemetery is situated on Gowanus Heights. miles from the South Ferry, and may be reached by Brooklyn City Cars from either Ferry. The grounds now comprise 860 acres, ! being* more extensive than any similar institution in this country or in. Europe, the various avenues, exclusive of paths, extending about 15 miles. The elevated portions afford- numerous and interesting views, .including the Bay and Harbor of New-York and the Atlantic Ocean. Large sums of money have been expended and much good taste displayed in the erection of monuments. Hlalen Island is situated in New- York Bay and forms Bieh- i ond County. It is 14 miles long and from 4 to 8 wide. From its hills are afforded the most delightful views to be obtained in the .vicinity of New-Y"ork, and the drives around the island are charming. The Sea- men's Eetreat, Bailors' Snug Harbor (two noble institutions) and the Quarantine grounds are located here: also, Forts Tompkins and Rich- mond, which, in connection with Fort Hamilton directly opposite, com- mand the Narrows. Steamboats lea^e the foot of Broadway every half hour during the dny. Coney Inland, ten miles below New York, is a place o" great re.-ort forsea bathing, being directly exposed to the surgesof the Atlantic Ocean. Steamboats connect with it several times during the day in the summer season, the sail affording a fine view of the Bay and Narrows with the different fortifications. Black-well's Island is situated in the East River, and extend^ from opposite 50th to 80th street. The objects of interest on the Island ©>■©»- f 12 HACKNEY COACH, AC, FARES. arc the Penitentiary, Lunatic Asylum, Alms House, Hospital, and espe- cially the new Work -House. This last is buil t entirely of cut stone taken from the quarries of the Island, and is more complete than any other structure of the kind in the country. Directly opposite the Island on the Long Island shore are the pleasant villages of Kavenswood and Astoria, which contain many beautiful residences. Permits to visit the Island may be obtained of'the Secretary of Governors of Alms House, at their office in Rotunda in the Park. ESamlall'N Island lays to the north of Blackwcll's Island, and opposite 109th-street. It is perhaps the most interesting of what have been termed the " Islands of Charit}." Upon it are located the nurseries for the support and education of destitute children, and is worthy of being 1 visited by all who desire to become acquainted with the charitable and I bene) olent agencies of New-York. It is under the charge of the Board of Ten Governors, from whom permits may be obtained same as for Blackwcll's Island. Hoboken is on the Jersey shore, opposite the city, and connects with it by ferries every few minutes. The Elysian Fields, so called, con- tain some beautiful walks, and a fine view of the city may be had from the high grounds. | gates 0f fare for Jatog tot^s #r Carriages, The prices or rates of fare to be taken by or paid to the owners of Hackney Coaches or Carriages, shall be as follows : — For carrying a passenger any distance not exceeding one mile, 50 cents; for conveying two passengers the same distance, 75 cents, or Sl}u cents each; and for every additional passenger 37jr more passengers, $5; for the use of a hackney coach or carriage by the hour, with one or more passengers, with the privilege o 1 going from place to place and stopping as often as may be required, $1 an hoar.

Established by Law. g>.fco 5 $ %mm& wot hit %tkh. ox o 5K Ih all large cities there are many contrivances for despoiling the unsuspe. 'irfg stranger, and in the long catalogue blackened by recorded villain^ here are none in more constant and brazen faced practice than '.he Mock Auction, the Patent Safe and Pocket Book Drop Games. The -Tlock Auction Rooms arc located in streets most five ited by strangers, and in them all the tricks, devices and swindles that unprincipled ingenuity can invent are daily and hourly practiced, and in some instances threats and personal violence are resorted to. The article usually dealt in is watches, the auctioneer offering for sale a genuine gold one, while the company in attendance who bid, buy. arid chuckle over their bargains, are, to -a man, of the J \ Peter Punk -Vhool, and trained to this mockery of business. If a 'stranger enters and is induced to bid, the watch is "knocked down"' to him. and ! receives in lieu of the genuine article, a worthless gal- vanized one. Pry Goods, Cutlery and other articles are also olfered, the stranger who bids so much for the lot, being required at settle- ment to pay the price bid for each article in the lot. From these swindling establishments well dressed sharpers spread theinoclves over the city wherever strangers are to be met, and profess- ing to be merchants from the country, or assuming any character that will l»est serve their end. worm :.:emselves into an acquaintance and confidence with them; this leads, perhaps, to a social walk, during which, as if by accident or mere curiosity, ijfcy saunter into the sales room with vo sign but the red flag, and whew all business is done to thetune of "goi ig: going! going!" H" the sharper fails to induce his new acquaintance to purchase, he is BUddc j eonvinccd himself that "such bargains should not be lost," and presently buys some valuable watch "i other article at. in his estimation, but - a fraction of: 4 ? value." In making payment, however, he finds to his regret* 1 ' his money has all been left at the hotel," and rather than lose the bargain borrows the trifling sum of 50, 60, oi 100 dollars, as the case may be, of his new friend, into whose possession is placed his valuable purchase " as secu- I 14 f rity until lie returns to his hotel ;» hut on the w*j thith r, a crowd or turn in the street causes a separation, when the stranger finds, too late i> a ronic.lv, that his security is not worth the carrying. The Patent Safe Swindle Is, p< , Uaps, the mos! successful of these villanies, and one hy which the largest amounts are obtained. The stranger's acquaintance being made much as above described, and the social walk proposed, which leads before he is aware to some se- cluded place. Here they are met by another sharper, who represents himself from some distant place, and on his way to Washington to pro cure r patent for an ingenious invention which he calls a " Patent Safe," " Powder Magazine," or any other name that suits him and pro- during as a model a round ball of ivory or other material, some two inches in diameter. This leads to an examination, and when the inventor s back is turned, the first sharper accidentally opens it, and in the s! ang r's presence removes from the inside a piece of paper, quickly closing it again. A discussion ensues, the inventor declaring the contents to be a piece of paper, which the sharper doubting, a bet is the result, and generally of large amount. The sharper, finding he has " nothing but lar-e drafts," with a wink offers to divide with the stran- ger, if he will loan the required amount until he - returns to the hotel," giving as security one of the drafts. To win seems certain; and the loan is made, when upon opening the ball, in an aperture before unnoticed a paper is found. Tho winner without ceremony moves off with the money, and the sharper, in' astonishment and rage, advising the Gran- ger to remain where he is and "avoid the fight," uttering tearful threats, follows after. The security is of course worthless, °and the stranger is left to find his way back, while the two villains soon meet to search for another victim. The Poekef-Book Drop, a very old dodge, is carried on by two, three, or four of these respectable looking scoundrels, who hover around within signal distance of each other. The stranger, as he walks along, finds a person brush against and pass him as if from picking up somethingnear his feet, and on the instant another accosts him with the inquiry, if he has "lost his pocket-book ?» The man just past be- ing hailed, pretends to have found one, which appears filled with bills, and as he is "in haste to leave the city," proposes the contents he kept undisturbed, claiming as his share of the "large reward that will no SHARPERS AND ». TRICKS. dou!>t be offered." with the chance of no owner being found, the trifle of fifteen or twenty dollars or more, the amount depending upon cir- cnmstrnce& The fairness of the proposition induces the stranger to mftke the advance, but on examination the prize is f- und to contain worthless paper, around which a few as worthless bills are ingeniously wrapped. This process is varied by inveigling the victim into some oiit->:' the-way place, and snatching his money from him when brought in - . Ii t, and in the row that ensues the snatcher maki::;r good hit escape. Their ta^r-s in ail these swindles are varied to suit circumstances, as one or other of their dodges becomes too well known, but " e point j of all their movements is to get hold of money, which once m their j possession the victim never sees again. We do not offer these remarks as anything new, or because they I arc unknown beyond the city, for they have been published throughout ' the land ; but from the numerous cases that have come to our know- ledge, some much to our disadvantage, and in one instance to the com- 1 plete ruin of a worthy but unsuspecting merchant, leads us to believe • that they may for the first time meet the eye of some one, and serve to •> make im cautious in giving his confidence to entire strangers in this great city. We also believe the better plan, which is adopted b j many merchants, who do not intend to pay their money immediately on ar- riv: ' is to deposite with some responsible house, and draw, or make frafta . [Mm it as their wants require. @»^o INDEX. — — PAGE CUTLERY, - 17 lit H'SEKF EPING ARTICLES, — Brushes,— Spoons, 21 BU!
