The "Sstcrs OF Chaiity.r who Lave charge OF this
institution have just issued their twenty first an
nual report They announce u cheering prosperity
In the affairs Of the hospital during the year which
has just ended, regretting at the same time having
been compelled 10 refuse admittance to numDer
OF applicants for want Of proper accom-
modatiOns. Although they have received
some very substantial old, which has en-
abled them TO pay or portion OF
rhe heavy mortgage which encumbers the hos
pital, and allowed them to receive larger number
Of the really destitute Sick stll 1t Is source OF
great regret thar the limits OF the institution should
compel them to refuse assistance to any. During
the past year nearly one-third of the patients
treated entirely free, and in no case wero any
Denied except when the diseases were OF such a
nature as TO render them inadmlssabe or, when the
cOnsumptive wards being already full, there
was no further. accommodation -. for that
numerous claes OF the afflicted. The Sisters
srdentiy desare that the hospital should be free,
least to tnat class OF poor who In good health
ease are reduced to the exlremest misery. These
poor people, from q deicacy winch must excite
sympathy, naturally M shrink from going into pubic
tatngly avail themselves OF che benefits of this hos
Pital were 1t IN the power Of the Sisters 10 afford
1t has been the anxious hope Of these ladies since
the foundation OF the present Institution that at some
future time they would be enabled to buiid
spacious and well appointed hospital, whose walls
should succ0r the sick poor OF every creed ana
nation, aud where they should receive the and
attention their suiierlngs demand. For the carrying
on and accomplishment of SO great work they
need the earnest and active cooperation OF all
charitable people, and 1t Is TO be heped the Ilends
Of the poor In this city OF noble charities will
come forward With substantial aid to help them
IN the undertaking. There IS perhaps, no other por

A correspondent Of the Tribune a
Chicago writes: One of the most dra
matte and impressive scenes of the fire
not yet recorded, was the flight through
the new LaSalle-street tunnel under
the river during Sunday night. 1t was
about two o'clock when this strange
hegira commenced, and in ten minutes
became furious rout. The bridges on
both sides were on fire, and the flames
were writhing over the decks and the
briggs in the river, and winding their
fierce arms of flames around the masts
and through the rigging like monstrous
luminous devil-fsh. The awful canopy
of fire drew down and closed over Water
street as the shrieking multitude rushed
for the tunnel, the only avenue of escape.
The gas-works had already blown up,
and there was no light in any house
save the illumination which lighted up
to destroy. ..
But into the darkened cave rushed
pell-mell, from all directions, the fren-
zied crowd-bankers, thieves, draymen,
wives, children-in every stage of I'M
dress, as they had leaped from burning
lodgings, bowling, imploring, cursing,
praying, wailing mob, making their des-
perate dive under the river. 1t was as
dark in the tunnel as it is in the center
of the earth, perhaps darker. Hundreds
Of the fugitives we're laden with furni-
ture, household goods, utensils, loaves of
bread and pieces of meat, and their rush
through the almost suffocating tunnel
was fearful in the extreme. They
knocked each other down, aud the
strong trod on the helpless. Nothing
was heard at the mouth of the cavernous
prison but a mufiled howl of rage and
anguish. Several came forth with broken
limbs and terrible bruises, as they scat
tered and resumed their flight under the
blazing sky to the northward. CTl

Grace Greenwood met joaquin Miller
at Salt Lake City, and gives the follow
ing discriminating account Of him, after
remarking that he strongly reminds her
of N. p. Willis. He is simple. uncon-
ventional, and apparently unspoiled by
English adulation and social petting.
He seems to be a man Of no DISCUSSES or
pretensions is still, where he feels at
ease, as impulsiye, natural, aud unsus-
pecting as a boy, yet not wanting in
keen perception of character aud ascer-
tain cool. quiet shrewdness, which, if /
mistake not, has had a good deal TO do
with his late remarkable success in lite
rature, Undoubtedly he has genius, but
he seems to lack, if not the artistic fac
ulty, the habit Of systematic effort and
consoientious study Yet he looks quite
as much the artist and the student as
the wild Singer of the Sierras." He
dresses like young painter, show
ing in his brown velvet coat and
dark sombrero, rich fur oyercoat,
his jewelry and crimson necktie,
an eye for effects Of light and
shade, and sensuous delight in orna-
ment and color. But his face is pale
and thougbtful, the ex pression Of his
eyes grave and inuoverted, and he has
something of scholarly stoop. In
short, he looks far more like the mar
who has spent his best years over the
desk, than like the hunter, the miner,
the reckless rider and fighter, the dar-
ing and romantic frontiersman that he
is said to be- Doubtless our literature
needs some freshening, halfforeign ele-
ment, and it may be that new life and
strength will flow into it through the
songs Of the most imaginative and dra-
matte pOet-but he seems to me to be in
danger of thinking that great poems
sing themselves-that he can continue
to take the world as he took the London
critics, by a wild, galloping swing Of
verse by a mountain air rush of strong,
free fancy, by a prairie fire sweep Of
passion, without further labor and study,
without careful, constant culture. lsBut
he is a man in his prime; his career is
now in his own hands, and neither coun-
sci nor criticism can make or mar it.
