In the course of the consultations of the Adj

at the Patent Office, the sub jcct of the inunda-
tons of the lower Mississippi was introduced.
and discussed at some length. Prof. Henry
of the Smithsonian Institution. had previ-
ousl y explained the plan and objects Of the
series of meteorological observations, made
in more than three hundred situations, in the
United States and elsewhere on this CONT
ncnt, under the joint direction and expense of
that institution and the Patent Office, in the

Williamson. Of Memphis, Tennessee, referred
to those observations ~ applicable 10 the pur-
pose in view, stating that the ovcrilows of the
Mississippi were destructive chiefly because
neither the periods of their occurrence nor
their magnitude could be certainly anticipa-

millions in the sacrifice of unharvestcd crops

Gill. Il merchant doing business III New York.
The family consisted of Mr.. Edward Gill,

Mcssrs. Thomas Gill and Ot;c Graves. Mrs.
ellis husband has been absent iii Philadel-
phia ON business since Friday last, and on
Saturday evening. herself, in company with
her bruther-in-l;tw and some female relatives,
went To New York. They did not return
until about o'clock. Mr. Thomas Gill and
Mr.. Graves seated themselves in the dining
room. aud smoked cigars until about o clock,
Mrs. Gill having gone to bed soon after com.
Ing home She slept in the middle room, on
the third floor. with her children, and the
gentlemen occupied the rear room IN the
same story the servants occupied the fourth
floor.
Towards morning, the men were awakened

( able IL make their way out in the usual man
! n-r. and seeing but one course left 10 save
themselves, got out oi the window. Mr.. Gill
I leaped 10 the tagging and sustained fearful
I Injuries while Mr. Graves tied the bed-cloth.s
! together and in letting himself down the
rope broke and he fell. The force Of his fall
was broken by il projecting shutter, and he
was thereby saved from serious consequen-
ccs His injuries are slight as compared
with those Of Mr.. Gill, whose head is dread

and the flames bursting into her face, she
was compelled L. loose her hold, and fell with
tremendous force upon the sidewalk below.
Her niuric, are of such a nature that her
recovery il considered doubtful.
About the same time, a woman, known to
be- Mrs. Gill, was observed at the window of
her bedroom, standing in an imploring atti-
tudc, aud although the iiremen present made
every effort 10 reach her, they were unable TO
do 80 for the want of ladders. Several mem
beers of Hose Company No. 3 attempted TO
reach the room through the building, but
were driven back BY the flames, and the I'M
fortunate beings were left to their fate. Their
cries for aid were heard. but no aid could be
given, and they persisted.
The flames were soon after subdued and
