After many delays, caused by disorders and
i the coal regions, this Company has
htvii •' to secure from the Cannclton Mines a
Coil, rich in carbon and the other in*
javdiehts of a superior gas.
Jtisao.v proposed to mix thi< rich Cannclton
Cutti in !| large per centage with the caking, or
co li e c - coa 1 , in the future manufacture at
Ah works as to produce a gas of very
hi::, i. . nating power, say from 17 to 18 candle
power.
I’-icgagas of this power, consumers can sub-
Ptiru: c umers of smaller capacity for those here-
tofuri* sed. In place of burners consuming 5
* par hour burners of 3 and 4 cubic

asivnuiu gas of 33>£ to 40 per cent., and yet
have an rxc-. llent light.

IS ' ; and . . randies cannot be enriched by any
carburetting process without causing it to clog
the; ; - nd burners and to soil ana smoke the
apartments in which it may be used.
A g •- enriched in the manner described will be
gn:,to the patrons of this Company on and

The Wisest of Precautions.
Of precautions the wisest is that which is taken
gainst disease. Th re is safety in timely medi
cation; great peril in delay. One malady often
begets others iar more dange: ous, and if it does
a !, any abnormal condition has a tendency, if
unremedied, to become chronic and obstinate.
Tr::! • disorders of the stomach, iiver, bowels
or urinary organs may speedily develop into lor-
• maladies. Check them at the outset
Hostetler's Stomach Bitters, which, al-
i? wonderfully t ffective in overcoming
th.
di- rs of long standing is, like any other me-
eparati *n, more advantageous in the
ilia: y.f the maladies to which it is adapted
Hun ! r they have bee me chronic. Among
tli re dyspepsia, liver complaint, constipa-
H-ju, intermittent and remittent fevers, gout,
i - .m;! ism, nervous and general debility, and
urinary troubles. The Bitters are a capital ap-
i 1 ' / , induce sound repose, and counteract the
ehects* of fa igue and exposure.

In their charges they are moderate; in their

John H. Deveaux, Esq., Savannah, Ga:
Sir—Replying to yours of tho 9th instant,
we would say that a dividend of gome
amount will bo paid this winter, or early in
the spring of 1878. We have on hand lunds
sufficient to pay a dividend of ten per cent.,
and a prospect of increasing it an additional
five per cent, within a month or six weeks
from this time, and, if snccessm!, will de
clare a dividend of fifteen per cent. Failing
in this, we will pay the ten per cent, that we
have.
Alter the amount has been decided upon,
it will require from two to three mouths to
extend the dividend, write out checks, etc.,
before actual payment can be made.
Very rcspectlullv,

Hoping and believing that there would be
a thorough investigation of the whole mat
ter connected with the fall of the building
corner of Broughton and Whitaker streets
by a competent committee, composed of
professionals and experts (who can alone
judge of the true merits of the case) I have
refrained from making public my views in
deference to such committee. No such
committee so organized and folly represent
ing the interests iovolved has ever been ap
pointed.
The committee of three appointed by
Council claim to have acted in accordance
with the following resolution :
“Resolved, That a committee of three be
appointed by the Mayor to inquire into and
report upon the causes of the fall of the
building in process of erection at the corner
of Whitaker and Broughton streets on the
morning of tho 30th of October, 1877, with
a view of such legislation on the part of the
government of the city or State as may
seem requisite to prevent similar disasters
in future.”
Under this resolution they were instructed
“to inquire into and report upon the causes
of the fall of this building with a view
of such legislation on the part of the
government of the city or State
as may seem requisite to prevent
similar disasters m the*future.” The object
intended by Council to be accomplished
under this resolution was a good one, but
where is the authority under this resolu
tion, upon their own diction, to attempt to
fix the responsibility upon auy one indivi
dual ? This committee was instructed to
“inquire into and report upon the causes of
the lall of this building.” Have they so re
ported? Have they not transcended their
authority by attacking the plans and
thus anticipating the work of building,
instead of the causes of the fail, which
they were instructed to inquire into. The
bull ling was up and fell. They were to re
port upon the causes of its tall—not upon
the merits or demerits of construction.
Have they done so? N?. No clear or tan
gible reason is given or assigned for its fall.
They simply choose to proclaim, without
authority, that “the cause of the disaster
points conclusively to tho faulty plans of the
architect.” Is this simple statement of
theirs conclusive? Is the reputation of a
professional man to be passed upon
by other than his peers in the
profession ? Who else are competent to
judge? Cert&iuly not those of other pro
fessions and business. I deny entirely that
the plans and specifications, as originally
prepared by me, were faulty, and here make
a solemn protest against the erroneous con
clusions arrived at by said committee.
I deny now, as heretofore, the right or
competency of this committee to sit in
judgmont upon me or my plans. They
are not architects or experts in such mat
ters, nor were they authorized to direct
their shafts at any individual. They were
simply a committee of “inquiry as to
the causes of tho fall,” and from
their report no causes can be gleaned, no
information derived, as to the actual
facts involved, merejy the vague, indefi
nite and impotent reflection upon the archi
tect. In attempting to fasten upon me the
responsibility for tnis disaster, they have
assumed themselves a much graver and
more serious responsibility, one the recoil
from which they will feel under the keen
aud just censure of a discriminating pub
lic and in the courts of law.
As well might they discuss the intricacies
of the law, and ascending the Supreme
Bench pass upon the professional merits or
demerits of the learned aud honored repre
sentatives of that profession, or torn their
attention to theology and enlighten be
nighted men upon the subjects of charity,
and even banded justice between man and
man.
of the partisan feeling evinced in this
matter and the want of magnanimity let
impartial men judge.
I do not intend to wield a divided sceptro
with any ram, ror to evade one atom of
responsibility which may properly attach to
me. But I do ask and claim even-handed
justice, and that a committee of investiga
tion must be thoroughly organized and com
posed of impartial professionals and ex
perts, who are by professional education
and experience qualified to investigate and
decide upon the merits of this case. Such
au investigation demands not only serious
study, but exhaustive analysis aud compre
hensive demonstration.
The fall of this building was owing to
natural causes, and not, as many ascribe, to
defective construction aud misapplied me
chanical agencies.
This occurrence, with hundreds of others,
attests the power of natural forces, where
circumstances favor their development and
application to the works of men.
The efforts of man, as compared with the
great natural elements by which we are sur
rounded, sink into insiguilicance, and leave
the mind perplexed when mere mechanical
agencies are depended on for the eolation of
remarkable and apparently unaccountable
occurrences. The ordinary and casual ob
server finds iu some detail the full realiza
tion of h a imaginary demonstration of a
subject beyond bis reach and comprehen
sion, while to the well informed professional
man or expert, tho investigation demands
hard labor and due consideration.
Numerous theories have been advanced.
Many as ridiculous in conception as they
have been impracticable of demonstration.
Tbo following is a synopsis of the conclu
sions arrived at from carefully prepared fig
ures and facts. The details iu figures are
only interesting to professionals, aud there
fore are not intruded on the public :
This building was put up rapidly, and for
a greater portion of the time in uupre-
cedentedly bad weather. The bricks and
every class of material were thoroughly
saturated with water, adding enormously to
the aggregate weight, some one hundred
aud fifty thousanl pounds. Tho mortar,
from being constantly exposed to these in
fluences, had no time to crystalize or set,
and a consequent weakness throughout the
whole structure supervened, aud there was
a general disintegration of the whole mass
not, however, in appearance or by auy
tangible indication, but only as developed
upon the fall of the structure. Had the
weather been more favorable, until the roof
was oa, this unfor.unate result would never
have followed.
The building fell on the inside, where tbo
weakness was first developed, and where
ibe party wall of brick first gave wav (this
wall was substituted for a heavy partition
wall in the original plan, with reference
to insurance considerations).
The walls were securely anchored on each
floor to the joists, and when the joists gave
way the gravitation and consequent lever
age carried tho walls in with them. It is
not in evidence “ihat the principal cause of
the disaster being the breaking of tho iron
lintels.” Nodo of the columns did or could
give way, and the lintels that were broken,
as can be attested by the character of tho
fracture, were not so broken by direct
strain, but by the wrenching and
falling of timbers upon them after
the fall began. As regards the
relieving arches, they are not always
used, nor always necessary, when ample
strength is given to the girders by the
necessary ribs as in this case. But even
assuming for argument that one or two lin
tels had given away, it cannot for a moment
be presumed that this would have carried
the whole structure down. The whole mass
went down in a body, which is positive evi
dence of general dismtegi ation. This disin
tegration was evident to the most casual
examiner of the brick woik after the fall.
The argument advanced agaiust openings
over columns I am prepared to refute
upon evidences of numerous plans aud
buildings four and five stories high so ar
ranged. Where iron fronts are used it is
customary to arrange the openings above
without reference to those below for the ob
vious reason of the great disparity in num
ber and size of the openings of the first and
upper stories, and the consequent im
practicability of having them otherwise
arranged in modern buildings. At no
time was there any want of confi
dence expressed by *tho contractors in
their work, aDd, as evidence of this fact,
they in common with myself were in and
upon the building every day. Oa the very
afternoon preceding the fall of the build
ing, in company with the contractors for
wood work, Messrs. Smith A Bartlett, I in
spected and examined all the upper work,
also the hoisting np of roof timbers. At
that time there was uo perceptable vibra
tion or weakness in the structure.
The running of the street cars on both
Whitaker and Broughton streets certainly
had its influence in deranging and unset
tling the bnilling, an irfluer.cd that is of
trifling importance to buildings already up
and seasoned, but certainly detrimental and
seriously injurious to buildings in process
of erection. This is an important matter
and deserves attention. Iu other large
cities special requirements are made in mat
ters of construction on streets traversed by
street railroads.
It is customary in drawing contracts
to “except Providential causes.” Why
this clause if man and his works are
not subject and liable to effects produced by
natural or Providential causes ? It c&nDOt be
ignored; thousands of disasters and casual
ties can be traced to natural sources and
effects.
Where do wo find the limit to man’s in
genuity and power, when we come in con
tact with the great natural elements—those
elements so little studied and so little un
derstood ? Is the naval architect whose
genius plans, executes and launches qpan
the ooean our grand steamers any less of an
architect because the mighty waters in a
moment destroy and carry down his work?
Is the engineer who designs, executes and
turns out the steam engine or locomotive
less of an engineer or mechanic because
they sometimes, from unseen but natural
causes, explode?
This disaster, so greatly regretted by all,
and especially by those connected with the
building, in my humble judgment was
attributable to natural causes, and would
have occurred under similar circumstances
to any set of men. It cannot be attributed
to any particular man.
I have reason to feel proud of the different
designs and plans which I Lave made, and
the structures I b&ve had put up, not only
here, but elsewhere, and to these I can refer
as unquestioned testimony in refutation of
this accusation, My experience as an e&gi~
&eer acfl arohiteet extends over a period of
twenty-five years, and the evidence of my
work is conclusive as to professional skill
and a justlv earned reputation.
Nor will the candid mind, with these facts
before it, hastily forget the standing evi
dence of numerous and repeated successes,
in deference to an accident the result of
natural causes.
The evidence of the architect and con
tractors given before the committee of in-
auiry sbou.d be published, that the public
may form correct conclusions.

Weekly Wenllier Chronicle.
The following, received from the Signal
Observer’s office, gives the general sum
mary of tho weather for the week ending
Saturday, November 10, 1877 :
On Saturday, the 3d, an area of high pres
sure existed in the Gulf States, which, dur
ing Sunday, moved northeastwardly over
4, ~ Atlantic States, and on Monday passed
th
eastward south of Nova Scotia. Oa Satur
day an area of low pressure existed in Kan
sas; on Sunday moved eastward to Illinois,
thence during Monday to New England, and
duriDg Tuesday over Nova Scotia and Cape
Breton, being accompanied by brisk to high
northerly winds, sleet, and snow in the Lake
region, and followed by northwest gales
along the coast from Cape Henry to Sandy
Hook. During Saturday, Sunday and Mon
day an area of quite high pressure and very
low temperatures existed in the Northwest,
moviog slowly southward from Manitoba to
the lower Missouri valley; during Tuesday
this area passed eastward to the Atlantic
States, and disappeared to the south of Nova
Scotia on Thursday, having been accompan
ied daring its eastward course by moderately
cool, clear weather. On Tuesday a low pres
sure area appeared iu the Northwest, with
brisk and high southerly winds in Nebraska
aud Minnesota, and on Wednesday passed
centraly southeastward over Kansas, snow
prevailing thence to Lake Superior, and rain
to the Gulf and South Atlantic coasts; dur-
iug Thursday the centre of this storm pass
ed rapidly northeastward to the Lower Lake
region, and thence eastward during Friday
over New England and lower Canadian prov
inces. During the passage of this storm
raiafalls of two inches or more were report
ed at New Orleans, Vicksburg, Meirmhi?,
Charleston, Lynchburg, Washington, King
ston, Toronto, New Loudon, Boston, aud
Eastport, and over one inch and & half at
Chicago, Detroit and Toledo. During
Wednesday night the pressure rose rapid y
in tho Northwest, with brisk and high north
erly winds from Wyoming and Kansas to
Dakota and Minnesota, aud an area of high
barometer has since moved southeastward,
and now exiends from the Gulf coast to tbe
Lake region. Light rains have prevailed on
tbe Pacific coast throughout the week.
The rainfall for the past week averages
about as follows iu the various districts: St.
Lawrence valley, 1.72 inch ; New England,
1.86; Middle Atlantic States, 2.12 ; South At
lantic States, 2.62; Eastern Gulf States, 0.85;
Western Gulf States, 2 42 ; Lower Lake re

Old Popular Superstition?.
The following ruporstitions, handed down
by traditions from tbe past, are fervently
believed in in many parts of this country,
aud by people who rank among tbe most
intelligent:
Whoever reads epitaphs loses his memory.
To rock the cradle when empty is inju
rious to the child.
To eat while a bell is tolling for a funeral
causes toothache.
Tho crowing of a hen indieites some ap
proaching disaster.
When a mouse gnaws a gown, some mis
fortune may be apprehended.
He who has teeth wide asunder must
se» khis fortune in a distant land.
Whoever finds a four leaf trefoil—sham
rock—should wear it for good luck.
When children play soldiers on the road
side it forebodes the approach of war.
Beggar’s bread should bo given to chil
dren who are slow ip learning to speak.
If a child leas than twelve months old be
brought into a cellar it becomes fearful.
A child grows up proud il suffered to look
into a mirror while less than twelve months
old.
The first tooth cast by a child should be
swallowed by the mother to insure a new
growth of teeth.
Buttoning the coat awry, or drawing a
stocking on inside out, causes matters to go
wrong during the day.
By bendiog the head to the hollow of the
arm tbe initial letter of the name of one’s
future spouse is represented.
Women who sow flat seed should, dur
ing the process, tell some confounded lies,
otherwise tbe yarn will never bleach white.
When women are stuffing beds the men
should not remain in the house, otherwise
the feathei s will come through the ticks.
When a stranger enters a room he should
be obliged to seat himself, if only fer a mo
ment, as he otherwise takes the children’s
sleep away with him.
Domestic harmony must be preserved
when washing day comes, in order to insure
fine weather, which is indispensable, as
that ceremony is generally performed out
of doors.

[Extracts from Reports and Letters.]
Prof. Damme, of Jenner Hospital, Berne, Switzer
land :
‘Children reduced by unsuitable nourish
ment (such as cow’s milk and pap) were after
wards fed upon Dr. Gerber’s food exclusively,
with highly commendable results. Infants of
three ard four months ot age increased daily
from twelve to eighteen grammes.”
Dr Sigel, Phi/sician to the Olga Hospital and
A sylum for Infants, Stuttgart:
“1 have tound it qune equal to the best substi
tutes for mother’s milk; the chhdren like it and
are thriving well.”
Many oi our own physicians of extensive prac
tice have tested this valuable food and approve
I of it in the highest degree. We have been ap-
! pointed agents, and will always have a supply on
i hand. *OiAMl<jN» A tO.
