pie were gazing at the ruins. The fremen were chopping away 1oosened timbers and unshipping hanging portion of the roof A small spurt of fire blazed up frsm some charred fragments, and the hosemen drenched it. Later high toppline portion of wall was pulled down, falling over into Temple street, and causing uproarious shouts of approval from urchins assembled in the crowds as it crashed into the thoroughfare. A chimney was pulled down, and the heavy crash which followed awol1e new shouts of satisfaction. Throngs of people were view ing the ruins all day, morning and afternoon, men, women and children, young ladies and escorts, and many team loads of people came from all parts of the city and from neighboring towns. Many of the hands em- ployed at the establishment were out looking at the ruins. About 25O hands are thrown out of employment. The shirt manufactory which Malley $ Co., run in Bridgeport goes on as heretofore under the management of Mir. Cornwall.
 THE SAFES CONTENTS UNINJURED. Both the large safes were opened aud the contents found uninjured. The big safe down stairs in the basement had to be pried open, and $3, 800, the receipts of Mondays sales, was taken out all right. There were also in this safe some documents and some ! salary money belonging to clerks. In the safe up stairs in Mr. Malley's private office were kept the books and many private docu- ments. We saw the safe when opened. Everything was all right, nothing soiled ln the least. The big safe in the basement was got out of the ruins after an hours hard dig ging MT. Edward Malley stood by waiting to see the safe opened.
 PACKAGES.
 There were probably as many as one hun dred packages of goods which had been purchased and paid for by patrons, and had not. .g$en delivered These were bought too late the day before to be deliver ed and were burned up. There is record of these pack ages and Mr. Malley will make it right with patrons, after he gets through little of the work now in hand.

 Edward Malley & Go. are in the habit of carrying about $15O,0OO worth of stock at this season of the year.

MT. Malley said to our reporter yesterday that if he should have to give guess he should say it was $175, 900 stock. But little can be saved from the ruins.

THE CURIOUS EXPERIENCE OF A
CARP.-The Observation-Disclosures rap
i'd growth of the German carp has just
been singularly shown. About ten
days ago man driving along road
about eight miles from Newburg had
his attention attracted by the Topping
Oh some kind of fish in mud puddle,
not more than three feet in circumfer-
ence. Getting out of his wagon he
picked up what was 10 him a strange
fish, and throwing it in the bottom of
his vehicle, proceeded on his way to
Newburg. Fer several days the fish,
having been put into water, apparently
none the worse for its jolting. was ex-
amined by the curious in Newburg and
no one knew what kind OF a fish it was.
At last it was determined that the
mOndescript should be sent to Z. G.
Blackford, the New York state fish
commissioner, for Identification. 1t
was put in small bait kettle and sent
to him. Mr.. Blackford receiving it de.
clared it on sight to be fine specimen
OF the leather. backed carp. On examin-
ing his books he found that last No
vember Mr.. Lewis Beach. member of
congress, had eceived from Prof. Baird
number of small carp. which had
been distributed 10 persons owning
ponds in the neighborhood of the place
where this one was found. The fish
must certainly have been carried out of
some preserve by the late flood, and
found resting place in the puddle by
the roadside at the subsistence of the
waters. Mr.. Blackford at once placed
the carp, which weighed three POUNDS,
in one of his aquaria, in Fulton market,
where it is now desporting itself in the
happiest way. From weight of GER
tainly not more than two ounces in
last November, in ten months this carp
has grown two pounds fourteen ounces.

they came in possession of the family

tinguished property of the stone is that
when there is poison in the wound it
adheres like leech, drawing up the
flesh as il it were sucked by the lips.
When it is full It's suction power be-

and washed thoroughly in water, dried
by placing it Oh warm substance and
then applied again until it will adhere
no longer. The changes and misfor-
tunes which war brought to Virginia

THRILLING WITH "OLD PROPS. One
of the officers of the weather bureau at
Washington started off last July on an
inspection tour of the weather stations
and observers. He took with him a
standard barometer with which he in
tended to rate other barome.ers in case
they happened to be working incorrect
ly. While he was in barroom at
Rochester, N. Y, some one tempered
with the regulator, but he had not the
slightest suspicion that anything was
wrong, and continued through the cir
cult rating other barometers by his own
tempered with machine. For weeks,
or until the thing was discovered, the
observers throughout that part of the
country could report nothing but low
barometers and the Washington office
could predict nothing but rain.

A WONDERFUL STATUE.
The Bowed Figure on the Washing
ton Capitol.

The most wonderful thing about the
Washington capitol dome is seldom told.
1t is said that there was statue in
ancient Egypt, called Memnon, which
whispered sweet words of melody to the
sun as he appeared above the horizon,
and sung him to sleep every night with
wild, weird lullubies. The grand,
naughty goddess of liberty on top of
the dome has heart of bronze, but a
good heart for all that, and one filed
with true old Virginia courtesy. She
has not yet picked up enough courage
to do the prima donna act, but every
morning the good dame courtesies to
the sun, and when he sinks in the west
size again cCurtesies, but without turn
ing around. Some lime since Archi-
tect Clark suspended plummet line
from the interior of the dome, and il
was found by actual measurement that
the lead swung over space Of Al
inches, making total dip out of the
perpendicular of 81 inches. This is
caused by the alternate contraction and
expansion Of the iron. A ludicrous
mistake, which occurred not long since,
may be mentioned in this connection.
The coast survey had in charge the sur
veying of the river front preparatory to
locating the line for the reclamation of
the Potomac flats. The top of the dome
was taken as one point of the survey
or's triangle in estimating certain dis
tances. The calculations thus ar
rived at were found to differ almost
every day, and much swearing and per-
picked thinking upon the part of the
brilliant engineers were INDUCED in
before the dipping of the dome was
brought to mind.
