TaE PRoPosED TRADEs ASSEMBLY BrnDIHo.
We suppose IL ID q LITTLE too early yet to specu-
late on the result Of tho appeal made in our
last, BY the President Of the Trades Assembly.
Of this city. That such building is required
admits Of no doubt; that by the plan prop 7sed.
Il could be erected before the lst Of Januarv
1871, without an apparent effort is equally plain,
and that it would eventually become a source of
revenue to every labor orgsniza alton in the city.
Is known to every business man in Chicago. We
have no doubt, were the Trades Assembly to
take the initiative, and ite efforts to he secoud
ed in the right spirit, By the several local
unions, but that handsome sum could be real
'zed from our manufacturers and employers.
We were assured, some months since, by the
president Of the most influential company in
the West, that such az enterprise would meet
with his cordial support. and that his donation
would prove his sincerity. We aI.o feel per.
fectlY satisfied that well stocked library could
be secured within so days from the completion
Of the building All thu is wanted, to insure
success. is long pull, q strong pull, and pull
all together Let the ball be started.

HELL GATE AND uALLErrs POINT.

Mr.. Benjamin b. Martin of Williamsburgh
called on Gen. Newton few days ago, and stated that
had devised machinery for efeeting the clear
ance required at Hell Gate, but gave neither outline

his patent rights. There may DO something in Mr. Mar
