New-York tribune., 1879-04-01

Lo, the poor Register! First Mr. LOew was
compelled to take his choice between dis
missal and the oath of allegiance to RE
"form." He took the oath nobly, and then
found that the sword Of dismissal was still to
hang above his head, ready to fall at mo-
ment's notice. And now the Republican
Legislature proposes, very properly, to cut
down his fees and put him Oh a merely COM
Portable salary The Register is getting more
than his share of reform.
New-York tribune., 1879-04-01

II may interest the Chamber of Commerce,
which appeared a few days ago, by rep
rescntatiyc before an Assembly Committee
and declared the grievances of NewYork
business men against the railroads, to observe
what the business men of Boston are doing

from a Boston correspondent sums up the
important changes in the railroad system of
Massachusetts which will necessarily result
from the completion of the Hoosac Tunnel
road during the Summer, and describes the
preparations that are making IN Boston to
provide adequate terminal facilities for the
great traffic to and from Europe which is
confidently expected. Iu the words of our
correspondent. Boston business men intend

Wctting Bricks.

Few people, except builders. ave
aware of the advantages of wetting
bricks before laying them. A wall
twelve inches thick, built Of good
mortar, with brick well soaked, is
stronger in every respect than one si4-
teen inches built dry. The reason of
this is, that if the bricks are saturated
with water, they will not abstract
from the mortar the moisture which
is necessary to capitalization, and, on
the contrary, they will unite cheml-
cally with the mortar, and become as
hard as rock. On the other hand IL
the bricks are put up dry, they imme-
diately take all the moisture from the
mortar ana leave IL too dry to harden;
and the consequence Is, that when a
building of this description is taken
down, or tumules down of ito own ac-
cord, the mortar falls from 1t like so
much sand.
