The Falls of the Genesee and sam
Patches Fatal Leap-One
Of its Business Houses
and its great
Magnitude

The present floods, which are ether de-
wasting or threatening the country In every
direction, are justly cause for apprehension.
No matter whether they rome suddenly or by
slew degrees. they are. in either case, great
evil and much to be dreaded. and yet Amer
lea viii always be troubled by these spring
overhows- Probably one Of the most disas-
trous that was ever known, occurred IN Roeh-
ester, N, v, about twenty years ago. The
tennessee river, just above the falls, where
Sam Patch made his final and fatal lean. be-
came completely blockaded by ice, forming
IN impossible dam, and the wafer coming
down the Genesee river overdowed the prin-
opal portion Of the city Of Rochester. This
catastrophe woald have been repeated the
present year had not the energy and fore
sight Cf the city authorities prevented Il. The
writer happened TO be in Rochester At that
time and was greatly interested in the manner
IN which this catastrophe was averted. Every
few moments, a roar ike the peals Of thunder
or the booming Of eannons would be heard,
and IN order /, see this ice bl sting process,
the writer went to the top Of the new Warner
building, which overlooks the Genesee river.
From here he was not only enabled to see the
process uninteruptedly. but also the magni6-
cent building which has just been completed.
This IS unqusstionably the finest building de-
voted to business and manufacturing purposes
in America, being entirely freproof, eight
stories high, and containing over four and
quarter acres ofAooring. Mr.. Warnef treated
your correspondent very courteeusly, and in
the course OF the conversation said:
We are doing Tremendous business and
are far behind in our orders. This is the sea-
son Of the year when people, no matter how
strong their constitution may be feel, more or
less the pain and indisposition, the headache.

'.You seem to talk freely in regard 70 yurr

Warner"
'.None whatever. The physician with his
hundred calls and one hundred diseases, IS
necessarily compelled to guess at great deal.
We are enabled to follow up and perfect
while physicians can only experiment with
their hundred patients and hundred diseases.
With the ordinary physician, the code binds
him down, SO that il he makes adiscove1y, he
IS bound to give it to the other physicians,
which, OF course, discnurages investigation,
to great extent This IS why the great dis
