The Treasurer Of the Episcopal fund, W. Williams,
of Utica reported the amount to be $37 0o0of the
which 50 2l6 had been paid to the Bishop to
the ls Of May lastbsing less by some $500 than was
paid last The deficiency was subsequently direct
ed to be paid.
The fund raised for education and mlssonory purposes
reported be 006 disbursements 0l9 besides
$4,000 appropriated to churches in the diocese.
Judge brought up the subject of Bishop 0nder
donks holding Proiessorship in the General Theoogi
cal Seminary of New York. under resolutions which,
after recng the suspension Of Bishop o. proposed to
instruct the the Western Dioces
to exert to Special meeting Of the
Board of Trustees to consider the expe ency Of remov
ing Bishop o. from his Professorship.
This propo discussed some lengtt-Messrs
Day and Judd taking the affirmative and Messrs Van
Ingen, Windsor, OF Lockpe, Horatio Seymour of Utica
Worden OF Canandagua and Loring Of Waterloo the
negative when on motion of Mr. Worden, the resolu

In the OF this debate Mr.. Van lngen stated the
fact that tho moment the Bishop was he aus
pended himself practically from the duties Of the Profess

an Unjust reflection the Trustees-and that it was
subject too remote from the province Of the Convention

OF the floor. On the 'front.' four spacious apartments
connected as TO appear like one, while they
at pleasure be separated by folding doors. Here
are seats for the gentlemen In charge OF distinct de-
partments OF the Herald, as well as accommodation
for the numerous and famous corps of reporters at
tached TO the Herald, in all over twelve beside the
editor himself. The library is well supplied with
popular and standard works of the most useful de-
scrptlon for reference-an indispensable adjunct to
TO well organized establishment.
On the next floor is the book printing rooms. The
composors room is placed In front, and employs
half score of hands occasionally, and seven con-
stantly. In the centre chamber used TO pre-
serve on file the voumlnous newspaper publications
which II ls desirable to keep-both American and
foreign. The press room is the next farther back,
and contains the requisite accommodation for exc
cutting this part OF the work.
The fourth story is the job printing department,
presided over by foreman OF skill and intelligence,
such being indispensable to the great amount OF
work done here. AT present all the theatrical bills
for all the New York theatres are printed here,
cept for one or two called the cheap and nastes,
which would not be treated with at the Herald es-
tabllshment-such small affairs being left to the
hungry and starved journals which cannot get along
without such employment. There are ten hands
employed in this department. There are in all six
working presses here of the well known manufac-
per royal, l medium, double medium, l foolscap,
and one hydraulic press of high power. All these
are located in the back room-the remaining space
in front being occupied by the compositors.
Another ascent OF a dozen steps brings us to the
Herald printing room il is spread over the entire
floor, and is capable of containing fifty compositors
at work. Its arrangement affords great facility for
the despatch of business and in this is adapted to
the accomplishment OF the surprizing feats done
by the Herald in printing news far in advance OF
all competitors. One complete longitudinal section
of this floor is taken up by the compositors' DESKS
the other by the tables, forms and desks, necessary
as appurtenances Twenty men are daily employed
here. One hundred gaslghts illuminate it at night,
and windows in proportion by day. There is a
good supply of water on this fiat, and command
ing view of the city towards the south, a part of
Long Island, the bay, &C. AS specimen of the
Herculean tasks in the printing line done here, we
may observe, that by the arrival of the Washington
mail, bringing some interesting political intelligence
thirteen columns have been received at midnight
and appeared in next days Herald In one double
daily Sheet there has been not unfrequenty as much
matter set up inside of one working day, as would
make book of $50 octave pages of ordinary print.

To have clear impression of the extent and ca
pacity Of this important establishment, it is alto
gether necessary to walk over it, and examine Its
various departments and its internal arrangements
The engraving at the head of this article conveys
good idea OF its external appearance, but although
this is attractive, it only to do justice to the
outside-the material of the building to the neglect
of the better part-the mechanical skill-the enter
prise-the intellect engaged in realizing the objects
to which it is dedicated.
In the first place, let observe that, as seen in
the engraving, it is five stories high, has front of
% feet on Fulton street, and extends rearward on
Nassau street 20 feet Its site is Of the most ad
mlrabe, for Its contguity to the Post Office, the Ex
change, the City Hall, the wharves, hotels, courts
of justice, and every centre of resort and source OF
news. A constant stream of passengers are on the
move by the two leading thoroughfares which here
cross each other attracted much, perhaps by the
chance Of hearing something new by purchasing
the last Herald, as by their ordinary business.
Besides the five stories mentioned there is base
ment floor of equal extent with the others, and ded
Gated to very important purpose. This flat is di
vided into three apartments. The middle section is
the press room, where the Daily and Weekly Herald
is printed This room occupies perhaps three fourhs
of the whole space contained in this basement sto-
ry On the front is the mail room, where the papers
are received, directed and made up, to be forwarded
to all the points of the compass The section
is the paper room. Here is always stored supply
of paper large in proportion to the vast consumption
of the journal, and here is prepared for the press
Below this room is subterranean apartment oc-
cuped as the boiler and furnace rooms while under
the mail and press similar but larger space
on the same level is used as an emporium for fuel
for the whole establishment In addition to all this
under ground room, there is space about five feet
wide excavated from the street which parallel
to the whole length of the building, from front to
rear, covered over with iron grating, and commune
eating by door with the press ROOM This not
only admits current of cool and refreshing air to

After ascending few steps, we are in Fulton
street, and close by the front entrance of the pub
fishing room. We enter and find an apartment
nearly square, well lighted, and finely situated
Here the subscriptions, moneys, accounts, and COM
munlcations, are received; and here may be found
at all times within business hours, the cashier, book

whom has his own share of the inside and outside

never can resist the temptation of looking at the
Herald bulletin which adorns the exterior angle OF
the building, and strikes the eye from any point of
