To realiae what this means, we have only to remember that it represents an area larger than one-third of Euglaud and Wales. The mind is appalled at the bare thought of such a calamity. Those upon the spot, as they look down upon drowned vil- lages and ruined crops, or listen to the tales of desolation whieh reach them from the in- terior, or see the crowds of homeless and food- kss refugees pouring into this city from the country, get some faint idea of the kind of suffering it is causing; but even they can have no adequate conception of its amounts. The story gots, that before the river actu- ally broke at Tsz-chu-liu, a messenger was sent from the i an en to inspect the threaten- ed spot. Hs found a small hole, and every sign of the coming disaster. But in the hole was a large fish. This was declared to be a god, and toe conclusion drawn was that it would be impious to try to stop the passage of the waters, as it was plainly the will of Heaven that the bank should give way. Wh«n the catastrophe had actually occur- red, and successive attempts to fill the breach had failed—the rushing stream having swept piles and reeds away—the tale grew. It was then said there were two fishes, one of which had gone up the country, while the other re- mained about the opening, an J that of course it would be useless to do anything until the wand* rerreturned. A tew days later I learned that the Tau-taiof Tient-sin, in his capacity of conservator of rivers, etc., had gene to the break in the Eueho, on the west of the city, to sacrifice to Tuen-Shen, a fabulous tortoise or fish, who is supposed to control the waters. He went in great stats, and was accomnanied by other officials. Tables were placed upon the river banks, a tablet, in- csnsc urns, candle-sticks, and all other nec- essary paraphernalia placed in their proper places, and then this strange ceremony be- gan. Not having been present, I can only give the hare facts. Beside the actual wor- ship, the principal business was a long prayer oil ere d by the Tau-tai, who recounted the sufferings caused by the flood, the fruitless efforts made to stop the various breaks in the hanks of the rivers, and besought the fish-god to allow them now to be repaired. The works at this spot were then recom- menced at once. Unfortunately, Yuen Shen does not seem to have been satisfied, for before long the waters again asserted their power, and swept away all the material gathered to resist them. Then the Tau-tai grew angry, and paid an- other visit to the breach. But there was no worship on this occasion. No incense, no of- ferings. Camion took their place, and the magistrate roundly rated the god for his non- compliance with nis wishes. "Didn't I tell you so and so, and you paid no attention. You don't care for the trouble caused to so many thousands of people," Ac, Ac. Bang! bang! bang! the cannon were let fly at him, and I suppose the worthy magistrate went home feeling that he had done his duty! There can be little doubt whether he has made any impression on Yuen Shen or not, that he has to a certain extent succeeded in convincing the people that he is not responsi- ble for the flood: and in confirming the popu- lar superstition. • » rtoAt a consideration atotial which shall go into the struc- ih© walls.

Within all limits of judicious pre- caution the good sense of builders, owners and architects will render them out of the question. . * ^ . The number of artides for roofing push- ing their claims for precedence among the building material in toe market is almost in- finite They are of various degrees of excel- lence, and few of them are remarkable for cheapness. The future safety of Chicago promises to be expensive. If people desire immunity from danger they must pay liber- ally for it. In the light of the great confla- gration, the question to be oonaidered is not only ^whether a roof is safe from flying sparks and cinders, but whether it can be wrapped, and sheathed, and lapped, and cased in flame, and all that sort of thing, for \ dt'oigiit ; |»'M« I I :t-'. bli-iiili n.Tu.1 o r n a i j H •< | ' . , f U M ';.«<, Miiii"\s ny. f a r u p > r l i M % t- M j t i ' w ; i v i .

People will have to use the least combustible materials and combina- tions at their command. Tin has been long used upon roofs, and has its peculiar merits. It is light, not very ex- pensive, easily put in place, impervious to water, and, if properly looked after, unob- jectionable as regards durability, it is ne- cessary, however, to join it with solder to make it water-tight, and it requires no very fervent heat to melt the solder, warp the thin plates of sheet iron, and leave this roof, in case of fire, at the mercy of the devouring element. While the fire is at a distance, and only sparks and cinders are flying through the air, it is sufficiently fire-proof for ordinary purposes. Sheet iron, for roofing uses, excels tin both in degree of safety and in expense. Upon the peculiar use and adaptation of that ma- terial there is a great variety of patents, most of which have already made their ap- pearance. A sheet iron roof is safe from sparks and cinders, hut when the heat is ex- treme, the iron warps, separates at the joints, and either leaves the woodwork upon which it rests exposed directly to the flames, or, being itself heated to redness, assists in the general combustion. To obviate the ll lU'llH • ' 1 ' are not confined to the limito «f any city, but _ extend hundreds of miles into remote districto, the articles being in demand for churches and other public build1 injp§, as well a® for private residences^.

The writer been shown a tire-proof inven- tion, for whieh a rarest has bean tiled by Mr. J.B.Clark, of Bloomington, the same con- sisting of three thicknesses of tin or sheet- iron riveted together, and having air-cham- bers between. It is intended to be used either for blinds or roofing, and will un- doubtedly be a good thing if those using it can afford to pay well for the privilege In addition to the great ex- pense, it would have the natural objection of being weighty and camber- some. In the process of reconstruction men can adopt fire-proof plana and use fire-proof materials only to the extent of their means, no matter what may be the result. The planing mill and sash and blind manufacturers are somewhat disturbed at the prospect of compulsory removal beyond our new and remote fire limits. The lumber dealers share in the feeling. COBNICKS, KTC. The use of wood for cornices is not likely to continue. Buildings in process of construction are being finished according to plans made under the "old dispensation, but architects and builders must, in the new era coming, yield to the decrees of fate. Florid wooden architec- ture, with its nests for birds and the coigues of vantage for the sparks of conflagration, must acknowledge the demands of the time. 41 The old order changeth, yielding place to new." Brick cornices can be employed only to a limited extent, being heavy, unwieldy, and not admitting of facility of ornament or of display. The material most in favor at present is the galvanized iron, which is light, durable, ana capable of being pressed into the most complicated designs of the architect. It is kept in shape and position by iron brackets at the eaves. There is no material capable cf more general use for purposes of decoration than gal- vanized iron, which can be color- ed to resemble or contrast with any kind of brick or stone. It is manufactured in Pittsburgh and sent to all parts of the country in sheets, taking the forms specified by the architect, at some establishment not remote from the building into whieh it is to enter as a component part. ;-.•: I ) i ' .

IS. Tuesday was the "fete day" (Ste. Eugenie) of the Empress, on whieh anniversary it is the custom on the continent to make presents and offerings of affection to those whose names correspond with that on the calendar. The present chosen by the people of Paris, or at least by the sympathizers with the ex-im- perial family, as a mark of their affection for the Empress Eugenie, consisted of a couple Of- bouquets four feet in circumference, so arranged as to form an elaborate monogram " Eugenie" and a magnificent album, covered with purple velvet and mounted in gold, with the letter " E," surmounted by the imi»eriai crown of France, on the upper cover, also in solid gold. The album contains the names of persons and firms in Paris, representing in all upwards of 80,000 individuals, who thus availed them- selves of the only opportunity at present af- forded them of assuring the Emperor of their lasting attachment. There was, in addition, a present, in the shape of a series of small bouquets, from the ladies of Paris, a testi- monial of sffectioa, headed by Madame Le~ febre, the wife of the late Prefect of appropriation to erect me a tomb at the pub- lic expense."

Compt DavLllcrs to difficulty of its breaking at the edges, va- rious locks" or involutions of the sheet have been devised, which can at the best be but partial remedies for the eviL In spite of all objections iron roofs are invaluaole, and protective up to a certain degree of heat, aad will be used upon buildings, especially upon large buildings or manufac- tories, to a degree commensurate with their merits. The most inexpensive kinds are necessarily costly. Galvanized iron or zinc can be used with facility, and can be put in place for $12 per square. The cheapest iron roof will coat $10 per square, while persons desirous of building rqgardless of expense can, if they choose, pay at the rate of $30 for the same superficies. Painting the iron ren- ders it, of course, less destructible from ex- posure- to the weather, but makes no mate- rial difference in the case of fire. Corrugated shingles, made by a Connecti- cut company, from iron, zinc, and copper, and of every desirable style, are offered in Chicago for the following prices per foot, measured on the roof: Cop per, 51 cents; paint- ed iron, 13cents; zinc, 19 cents; galvanized iron, 19 cents: tin plate, 12cents; these rates being varied by the presence of paint or ena- mel. This method of roofing is perhaps less liable to Warp than flat iron plates, and is impervious to water. •'Thatcher's metallic shingle rootling and siding" is made in Cleveland. It has been used elsewhere, but is now for the first time offered for sale in our city. It is applied in flat square sheets, locked at the edges, and riveted, with due regard to contraction and expansion. It possesses the average advan- tages, and is liable to the objections urged against iron roofs generally. As far as price is concerned, it will probably be able to com- pete successfully with the rest. The iron used is from the best Lake Superior ores. Concrete or gravel roofs are usually made of felt covered with tar or asphaltum, in which sand,, gravel, or other material is im- bedded. Its power to resist fire depends upon the manner in which it is applied, amount of gravel used, etc. It is applied in broad sheets, laid lengthwise of the roof, and overlapping like shingles. After the fire, extraordinary tales were told about the agency of felt roofing in spreading the con- flagration. The feeling against it was at that time deep and widespread. The writer has conversed extensiatly with builders and architects upon the subject, and found them not unfavorably disposed toward felt roof- ing if properly put on The extreme cheap- ness, when lightly put on, often causes the work to be slighted and imperfectly done; and here exists the great danger ef its use to individual buildings, and to the city at large. This is a matter that should l>e carefully looked after by the authorities. The felt should always be of several thicknesses, oarefuBy secured, and thickly covered with gravel when put on, and it should after- wards be closely watched and kept in per- fect, repair. The New England Paving Company, of Boston, make their appearance for the first time with their "asphalt and concrete pav- ing," which they propose also to apply to roofs, using a basis of felt like the rest. T* stimonials in regard to its good qualities, when used in the hrst capacity, are liberally furnished. It is said to dry rapidly, he free from offensive odors, to stand time weU, and to be capable to withstand great heat- All of which questions must be decided to the satisfaction of the Chicago public The cost of this material for coating felt will be about $3 per square; for a roof com- plete and warrauted for ten years, $8 per square; for paving purposes—and the ques- tion of paving is going to be important in the recenstraetion of the city—it can be laid for $1 to t l per square yard, the material be- ing fiom two to eight inches iu thickness. The use of this material for roofing has so far been limited. The agent suggests improved of putting it on which wiU increase re of safety. u excellent but expensive roofing is that furnished by the Chicago Elastic Stone Roof- ing Co., the price of which we are not at this moment able to furnish. This roof- ing is composed of coal tar, thickened by the addition of kaolin, or fine- gronnd porcelain clay, that it may not run frcm the extreme of summer heat and also rendering the materials tire-proof: to this they add a preparation of dissolved India rubber and glycerine, and the whole is thor- oughly mixed by machinery. The principle of the roof is that, upon applying the mate- rial warm to the surface of the felting, the rubber, not being- combined but simply ad- nixed, rises to the surface, forming a film or envelope over the surface, protecting it from the action of the atmosphere. The glycer- ine, which will not evaporate, keeps it al- ways elastic, so that it will not crack from cold. I ts power of resisting fire is equal to that of any other roofings of similar nature, and its coming into general use will depend, in a great measure, upon its adaption, a % re- gards price, to the financial ability of the builder. — GOSSIP. We have now specified, in a 8eries|of arti- cles, the materials which go to form the solid and conspicuous elements of the buildings of the future. The remarks that have been made, where they were susceptible of special application, have been, in most in- stances, applicable to structures in- tended for business purposes. In a generic way what we have said would not be inappropriate to matters relating to the construction of private residences. For these thinner foundations and walls suffice, and the footing atones are dispensed with. The amount of cement used in the con- struction of the city will be immense. But the supply will be ample, and very select qualities are offered to the purchaser. Those manufactured in Louisville, Ky., and Akron, Ohio, sustain a good reputation among ma- sons and builders. There are many other makes of cement scarcely inferior. The de- mand for lime will be infinitely greater, but the supply is sufficient and close at hand. That made at the kilns in the vicinity of the city is equal to the best, and makes, with the fine sand of the lake shore, the best quality of mortar. Plasterers' work can only be carried on during the winter within enclosed walls, I and in an atmosphere whose rigors are tern pered by a fire.

They are notlikely to be less next summer, although the number of laborers in these departments of mechanics will be greatly increased. The materials whose use is in- cidental to their business are not likely to be enhanced in value. Nearly all the coarse window glass used here comes from Pittsburgh. The heavy glass employed for the floora of stores comes prin- cipally from the same place, but other towns along the Ohio Biver furnish a small propor- tion. The patent bull's eye-glass, set in pavements, comes from New York. French plate for large windows, or ordinary set- tings, is imported direct, and will take abroad a large amount of money before the rebuilding of the city is completed, fn some of the finer show windows of the city were single plates of fine French glass which oost several thousand dollars. The interior finishing and frescoing of the finer buildings will call to the city a host of skilled artisans before another winter of more cheerful prospect than this shall have closed in upon us. Briefly resuming the subject of the supply of material, the writer would say that of lumber the supply will be ample, and the prices in this city will probably not exceed $17. The dealers, however, seem prejudiced against odd numbers, and may force it up to $18. Brick ought to he had for $10 per thousand, but wiU probably bring more, which would make it more profitable for capitalists desiring to invest in the business. Building stone can be had in abundance at a slight advance upon last year's rates iu one or two of the kinds used. Articles manufactured of pine lumber will bring slightly increased prices. Iron will remain > nearly at the old figures. Other articles, for prime use or or- nament, may advance a little, either from sympathy or the increased demand. - It is not anticipated that there wiB be any material increase in the price of labor after the season is fairly opened. Bricklayers now receive from five to seven dollars a clay,, the day being the limited space whieh na- ture now permits between daylight and the recurrence of darkness. Men at the brick- yards will be paid a little more next season. Carpenters now have a daily remuneration of from three to four dollars. Stone-cutters have four to five doUars. The influx of alien labor will doubtless duly temper and equalize the matter of wages. In regard to the continuation of building during the winter, there are vaaious opin- ions. The writer has been informed by an architect, formerly of Montreal, that he had superintended the erection of brick buildings in the very coldest weather of the winter, and he aid not kndw that he had seen stronger walls. If the bricks can be kept dry and tbe mortar warm, there will be no trouble. The slower tbe "mortar" sets, so that it is not frozen, the more substantial will he the structure when finished. It is only possible to say. prophetically, that the amount of rebuilding during the coldest weather depends upon the cost of labor, the cold and moisture of the weather, and the urgency of the builder. Only those whose o that of Paris pre- icre is no question of the people Cities" of Italy, all so decide, to make Venice art museum ever a. Many of the ablest Italian jrs regard this as the probable destiny famous Queen of th© Sea, and it would a relatively fair compensation—as this world fees—for the grave misfortunes of the past eigity years, if the Venetians could ao employ the remaining results of their former (supremacy as to constitute Venice the City Museum of the world. In such an event the apostrophe of the old republic to its patron saint—%fl'ux Ubi, Marce, evaneelieta uwter /"— would have a significance which, while new, would perhaps be no less satisfactory than the olden meaning. . 1 «'0> id photographer, named Henry a strange thing in London the . He was employed by the weil- — Mayall, in Regent street, as a ;s. Lately he became neg- . his duties, and, after some unheed- | ed cautions, he received notice that his ser- vices, after a given date, would be dispensed with. At the same time he was told by his employers that if he wished to gp into busi- ness on his own account out of London they would assist him. On this Newman went to the gallery after business hours, and, getting quite alone into the studio, smashed with a hammer aU the lenses attached to the cam- eras, and cut to pieces with a knife all the backgrounds. In a few minutes he had de- stroyed property worth $3,000. That done, he went straight home, took a dose of cyanide of potassium, and was subsequently found quite cold and dead in his chamber. —A suicide under singular circumstances is reported from Vienna, that of a M. Gustave Kozeken, a very skilful mechanician of that city, who by industry and talent had acquir- ed a valuable custom among the Viennese aristocracy. He was lately commissioned by an Austrian Count to make for him a clock which should be an exact model of the fa- mous automatic clock of the Strasbourg Cathedral, for whieh he was to be paid 18,000 francs. Everything progressed well with the work up to a certain point; all the accessories were complete, with the ex- eeption of one portion of the mechanism ot the clock, whereby the machinery should t e set in motion. Although he worked faithfully at the clock endeavoring to remedy this defect, Kozeken failed to ac- complish his desire. A profound melancholy in consequence seized upon him, which his wife and children in vain sought to remove; his mind Inst its balance, and it only needed the crowning catastrophe, that, by an un- fortunate accident, he one day broke some part of the works of the clock that he hoped to make the chef eTceutre of his Bfe, to drive tbe despairing man to suicide. He was found one day in his workshop dying in agony from the effects of sulphate of silver that he had swallowed. This suicide pro- duced a great impression among the artistic circles of Vienna, in which the unfortunate man was well known. SEW IN (J ^WVW*v>iw«^^v%^v^.*^v» WANTED.

Bricks cannot be laid when the weather is rainy or snowy, and will not be laid when the thermometer is at the lowest. HOW THE LESSON IS LEARNED. The Question now is. What hare the peo- ple of Chicago learned, and how will th«y put what they have learned in practice f Our merchants cannot build of asbestos; they cannot excavate their stores and dwell- ings from the solid rock, nor can they put up stiuetims entirely of iron, east in a single piece. These materials are expensive, 6ven in small qnantities, difficult to work, aad cumbersome to handle. Their means are least when most sorely needed. With the money that men had before the fire, and the experience that the great conflagration en- tailed, there ia no doubt a very different city would have been freduced than that which was destroyed. he portions of the lesson not only learned, but put in practice, will be the diminished use of wood, the erection of stronger walls. the more ex te naive use of iron, and the re- jection, as far as possible, of hazardous and uncert ain materials. In the direction of that which is fire-proof, there are few who will not be limited by expenditure. None will do quite as well as they would be glad to do. It is useless for men to cavil or to expect im- posaihle itrsuits. The general result will be a marked improvement over the past, but not perfection. And whatever may be said in regard to improvidence, it is useless to argue the question on the supposition that a fire, such as never before scourged a haplees people since Eden, will occur again until time shall have raxed to the ground, without special catastrophe, the new and beautiful Chicago that is to spring up from the ashes of the old. — » i i i ' J Vent tee. Four years ago it was suggested, as a pos- sible means ef restoring to the city of Ven- ice a portion of its material prosperity, that a line of a dozen or more steamers, capable of navigating the 8aea-Camut should be es- tablished to ply between Venice and the ports of Eastern Europe and of Asia, to se- cure at least the bulk of the freight traffic, if not some ef the passenger travel, between the North of Europe and the Eastern Medi- terranean and the Pacific. This idea was abandoned,' however, for the rea- son' that the railway traffic, eia the irstannela, -would inevitably find its tor inns at Oriudisi, GOO miles south of vimi*. BOOTS AND SHOES.

The prixaarv cause of Consumption is derangement of tne digestive organs. This derangement produces deficient nutrition and asstmilatien. B y aeimllation I mean that process by whlca Uts nutriment of tae food is converted into blood, and thence into tae solids of the body. Persons with digestions thus impaired having the slightest predisposition to pulmonary die. ease, or if they take cold, will be very liable to have Consumption of the Lungs in some of its forms; and I hold that It will be Impossible to to cure any case of Consumption without first restoring a good digestion and healthy assimilation. The very first thing to be done is to cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased mucus aad slime whieh are clogging these organs so that they cannot perform their func- tions, and then rouse up aad restore the liver to a healthy action. For this purpose, the surest and best remedy is Schenclc's Mandrake Pills. These pills clean the stomach and bowels of all dead and morbid slime that Is causing disease and decay in the whole system They will dear out tbe liver of all diseased bile that has accumulated there, and rouse it up to a new and healthy action, by which natural and healthy bile is secreted.

I have aeen many persons cured, with only one sound lung, live and enjoy life to a good old age. This is what Schenck's medicines will do to cure consump- tion. They will dean out the stomach, sweeten aad strengthen it, get up a good digestion, and give nature tbe assistance she needs to clear toe system of all the disease that is In the lungs, whatever the form may be. It a important that, while using Schenck's med- icines, care should be exercised not to take cold: keep in-doets la cool and damp weather ; avoid night air, and take out door exercise only in a genial and warm sunshine. I wish it distinctly understood that when I recom- mend a patient to be careful in regard to takiax cold trl ile usinir my medicines. I do so for a special reas-m. A man who hss hot partiaiTr recovered from the effects of a bad cold is far more liable to a relapse than one who has been entirely cuted, aad it a precisely toe same in regard to consumption. So long as the ltinc* are not perfectly healed, Jnst so long is there imminent danger of a full return of the disease. Henee it is that I ao strenuously caution pulmonary patients against exposing themselves to an atmoapnere that is not genial and pleasant. Confirmed consumptives' lumrs are a mans of sores, which the least change of atmosphere w l i inflame. The grand secret of my success with my medicines cea- Kists in my ability to subdue inflammAtton instead of provoking it, as many of the faculty do. An inflamed lung eaanot with safety to the patient be exposed to tbe biting Wants of winter or ike chilling winds of apring or autumn. It shotud be carefully shielded frcm all irritating influences- The utmost caution should be observed in every particular, ss without it a cure under almost ant- circumstances is an impossi- bility. I The person should be kept en a wholesome and nu- tritions diet- anil ail the medtcines continued until tli e body has restored to it the natural quantity at flesh and strength. I was myself cured by this treament of toe worst kind of con sumption, and have lived to get tat and hearty these many year*, with one lung most!y goae I hate cured thousands since, and v«rj manv have been cured by this treatment whom I have never seen. About the 1st of January I expect to take possession of my new building at the northeast corner of Sixth and Arch-sta., when; I Khali be pleased to give advice to all who may require it. Full directions nereiupany all my remedies, so that a person in sny part ef toe world can he readliy cured by a strict observance of the mime. J. H SCHENCK. M. D., Philadelphia.
