DISTUIBLTiOX OF BELIEF- As..was to .have, the wasteful aod iudiscriininiitQ di|{rtbulion of supplies during ‘the last week has; drawn largely upon the stock.on and, leaving out what may.be rcfcciv&l in the jaeanlime, there are not supplies cnodgb on hand to last more than four or five «b.ya.

Amid the general gloom, the public dis tress, and the wide-spread wreck of private property, the heart of the most impover ished man is warmed and lightened by the universal sympathy and aid of his fellow countrymen. There were cities that look ed upon' Chicago as a rival. Her unex ampled success had provoked hostility,— amounting at times to bitterness. In the ranks of municipalities Chicago stood sre- eminent, and that eminence had' drawn, upon her the prejudices, and often the ill natured jealousies of her supposed rivals. But the fire ended all this. Hardly had the news VeaebeH'these cities before our l sorrows were made theirs. The noble-, hearted people did not wait for details they suspended all other business, each man giving of his money and his properly to bo scut to Chicago. Before the fire had ceased its ravages trains laden with supplies of food and clothing bad actually reached the city. St. Louis and Cincinnati, Mil waukee, Detroit, Pittsburgh, and Louis ville were active,*~cven while the fire was burning, in-providing lor .the' relief of devastated Chicago. Every semblance of rivalry bad disappeared. Not an ungen erous or selfish thought was uttered— everywhere the great brotherhood of. man was vindicated, and oar loss was made the loss of tlfc nation. In the light of this experience, how ibsuvd arc the criminations and contro versies of men. The hospitality nnd'hu*. nanily of those in our city, who have •etaiued their homes, toward their less fortunate neighbors, though marked by 3 very feature of unselfish charily, has failed even to equal the zealous efforts and generous nctioua of the people ot'tho country, "Who Lave laid aside all other business to food, the hungry, clothe the naked, and give shelter to the roofless of Chicago. The national sympathy for us in our dis tress has shown that tu the presence of,hu man suffering there are no ’geographical lines, no sectional boundaries, uo distinc tion of polities or creeds." Thft Samari. tans have outlived the Lcvitcs, and there lias been no such thing ,as passing* by bn the other side. The wine'and oil have been distributed with a lavish hand, and the pennics.hava been deposited to pay for •.he lodging of the bruised and homeless. Words fail, ‘to express the grateful feel ings of our" people. Men who braved tho' perils of the dreadful who wit nessed ihc'destruclibabT'an th'clr worldly ;oods, and who with their strug gled for. life upon, the prairies'during the iwful destruction, and bruvely enilured if all, could not. restrain the iwclling heart or grateful tears when they read what the noble people of the country had -done for Chicago; how the rich and the poor, whites and blacks,—all, men, women and children, had.donc some thing to alleviate, the distress and mitigate the salTering of fellow-beings in fur -off Chicago. How true it Is that one touch, of pity'makes tlie whulctrorld kin.” In some cities the contributions have ex ceeded an average of a dollar for each member of the- population, and in the ibundancc'that has been given unto us the aggregate is 'largely made up from the prompt* offerings of the humble and the poor, as well as of tho rich, future sta tisticians may compute''io tabular array the commercial value of the donations to Chicago; bat only in the volume of the re cording angel will be known the inestim able blessings of that merciful, generous, humane charity which this calamity has kindled in the hearts of the whole Ameri can people. In due time there will be a formal and complete acknowledgment of donations, public and private; but in the meantime let the nation rejoicp that underneath all the conflicts in which men arc forever cn- grossed is a latcjjtsparfc of universal brotherhood, which needs hat tho occasion to dcvelop into tho most genial warmth. Property mnj_ belost, wealth be ob who hove hearts in which charity for hu man suffering cannot bo stilled under ary passible even). j .TUE[.BOARD OF TRADE, j Tlic action of the Board of Trade on i Saturday last,. in relation to contracts pending nt the time qI the ftp c, is well cal eulated to still further strengthen the con* tidencc reposed by the people ot other. cities in the integrity of the business v rticn lof Chicago Tho day after the fire, when everything was thought to harp gone by the board, a considerable number of lie mem* j bers seemed to be in favor of repudiating j all obligations, pot so jnuch because they wished to evade responsibility, as fur the I reason that it seemed hopeless to'attempt anything iu (he way as Settlement, as nine-tenths of' the records of their trans actions had been consumed in the flames. -Uni this"" feeling bdoo gave way to- tho conviction that l tho lino of duty must bo followed as fur as it 'could bo traced, and when the matter was pul *to the tate on Saturday there was scarcely a single voice raised against the motion lb rr scttl6 bp as,far as possible, Tho only division of opinion was in reference to the most- equitable, basis on bo made. yh*'* 7 i I A large proportion oT tho transactions j referred to -wore of tho-class called op- 1 tiona, which are regarded by somc as little better tbnn 'gambling. regard to i these the great public would have little sympathy but for the fact that they curd so intimately mixed up with, straight-forward business trading that the tares could npt bo destroyed without! pulling up the wheat also. Great quantities of grain -and provisions have! been bought here during tbs summer, by Eastern parties, for winter delivery, (he j purchasers intending to take the properly at maturity and ship it lo points where it can be distributed for consumption; they bought ahead because they ftrpeclcd prices to be higher in wintec_ than at the time of purchase., ’TKp samc”is True with regard to large quontlllcs of grain Void ahead by parties m the intention being lo delivcr./fIL aST ii&rVnru convenience* There is no more of gambling in these, transactions that* jo th* purchase-of two barrels mediately, and thtr‘other-wanted a j month -afterward. _T So .far as. Ihcse I contracts can be honored V! .they should ho' carried 'out in per-'( feet good faith, ''because* parties to a transaction no j mcrous gonsequoncos which ihey do not! foresee/ stnd the; mere option trades] where neither party expected to deliver or J receive, should; be settled possi- ble, for the same reason.: jj'.-• j Tho Board r of Trade is to be congratu- j Ja’tcd on having'met'the. situation in a manful way that entitles them 10’the'high- eat respect from the whole community. But the board will establish overt a'higher I claim if U'nbwTpttigdnsclf'as'fast as pos sible of the gambling spirit that has char acterized no inconsiderable proportion of its members during _tho .past, two or three yoera. '.Gambling ;in ‘grain was since' the war, and provision options arc of even r more recent data It will be com* paralivcly casynow to^-expurgate this ex crcsccncc, aodihtcp. Ur;banlshcd forever. There was apparently no wav out of the difficulty -previous to-tbe fire that swept the city like the-wing of the destroying angel If this purification cab be accom* plished, and the board settle down to its legitimate business of helping forward the movement of grain and provisions from the producer to the consumer, the reform will not be the least good that will come Out oT the terrible evil which has bowed us down in dust and ashes. THE NORTHWEST SUffKRERS, The Mayor of Milwaukee has addressed a communication to the newspapersT* of Wisconsin and Minnesota, asking them to advise-the peopfo-among wbom they cir- culate against forwarding contributions to Chicago “until after a .full consideration of all tha suffer lugs in when aid could be appliedt td the uses which should \then most imperatiVe." This is judicious advice. According to all accounts, the loss of fife and property in the burnt districts ofWscbnsin, Michigan, and Minnesota lias been quite as severe upon tfae-populalion called'hpon to bear it as that which has drawn, to Chicago the commiseration of -the whole civilized world. At tho same time tbo remoteness of the afflicted quarters at the north from ■news centres will prevent ..their afllic* lions from becoming so well understood i by tho world at large as those of Chicago. jTho charity of our friends in Wisconsin jand Minnesota "should not forget those whose clalm-upon it is first in order; nor can Chicago properly accept any munifi cence to which others have a better claim, notwithstanding ou*- own needs arc so imperative and the provisionson hand are actually limited to a fc’v iys* supplj*.

The building is..very wql£ adapted to,the pur poses, aiid for’thc* time will be a a conven ient as any other that could bo provided.
