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.

Baltimore Pearl Meal, as white as flour, for sale by John Lyons, agent, octlg-tf 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. M. B. Grant, Engineer and Architect.

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 gion, 1.72 ; Upper Lake region, 1.18 ; Ohio valley aud lenuessee, 1.40; upper Missis sippi valley, 0.71; Missouri valley, 0.30; Minnesota, 0.14.

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.
