large and a loss hall, partitions being removed an doors taken away. It was in this hall. which was transformed for the time into a music-room, that the marriage ceremony was performed: In the spacious entrance aforest of ferns introduced the visitor to the magnificent hall, where the eye was met by one grand mass of flowers and gas-lights. Hundreds of baskets of flowers were reflected in the costly mirrors, and the corners of the great apartment . were rounded elf h miniature gardens. - ‘Two thousand wrest s of smilax depended from difieren't‘pointe in the room. and camellias, pinks, tuberoses and ferns were scattered around in every available s t. At the further end of the hall, and in w at is known as the music-room proper of the mansion, the bridal arch was erected. This was a magnificent piece of flo- ral architecture. The arch was 7 feet high and 8} feet in width, the col- 4‘". amns representing two lofty‘cornneopias, from which all kinds of flowers were falling in profusion. Over the centre was a large shield, striped with red, white and blue flowers, and bearing the letters H. and S. -. .- .~ gracefully interwoven,-and formed of pinks and camellias. From the shield depended a large wedding bell of white flowers. Feetoons of smilax joined the chandeliers. and blooming orange trees loaded the air with "their fragrance. The scene. alto- gether, was one which it would be difficult tosnrpass in beauty and magnificence. Mr. Sharon invited 150 intimate friends to be resent. These guests arranged themselves lfn the music room in two lines, seven deep, Jexte‘nfingifrom the bridal arch towards the “ 'entrace. The costumes of the ladies were all extremely rich and elegant. and diamonds flashed on all sides in the brilliantly lighted room. The procession formed at the head of the grand staircase on the second floor, and consisted of seven persons. The R v.

Sir Thomas Hesketh and Miss Flora Sharon took their places under the’wedding bell, and Qt.

He finally found it in his waistcoat pocket, after pulling out a match-case, a pooketknife, and several other reminders of his bachelor days. The groom was 'ilery nervousthroughout the ceremony, and his answers could ,not be heard by those near- est the arch. The bride was calm and collected, and gave her responses in a low but calm and perfectly dist’not voice. When the couple had been pronounced man and wife the music, which had ac- companied the procession to the altar, again filled the air, and the guests crowded forward to congratulate Sir Thomas and Lady Hesketh. A few minutes were passed in hand-shaking, and then the bride, escorted by her brother, and Sir Thomas supporting Miss Sedgwick, promenaded down the hall, and the dancing of the even- ing began. The guests at the wedding had been brought from San Francisco early in the evening by a special train. Just after the completion of the ceremony a second great magnificence. There was scarcely a family of wealth or social prominence on the Pacific coastwhich was not represented in the gathering. With the exception of the billiard-room, where liquors and cigars were dispensed by skilled waiters, and the dining-room, every room in the great house - was thrown open for dancing, and as soon as the guests had paid their respects to the newly married couple. who held their re- ception on the second floor of the house, they joined in the dance. There was a noticeable absence of lowmecked dresses among the ladies, although there was no lack of gorgeous toilets. At midnight the dinner was served in the spacious hall which was once the art gallery. but which was converted into a supper-room at the time of the Grant reception. Here a wide and long table was spread, glitterin with lass. silver and china service. an here t 9 acts were served by sixty colored waiters, ressed in black and wearing white kid gloves. under the superintendence of Mr. Sharon’s (‘ilcl‘ de cuisine. The sup r room was brilliantly illuminated by ve central chandeliers of crystal and gold and ten brackets. the whole comprising nearly 100 gas jets.

It is enough to make the cold shivers run down one‘e back to read the reports of the ther- mometer in Winni g in midwinter, or note the hilarity o the mercury in New Orleans in summertime. But the weather men plead in their defence that they die- tribute joy unwell ea sorrow. They b- lieh untimpetion of good weatheruye l as A despatch says that at a meeting of the New Capitol Commissioners on Friday afternoon Superintendent Eaton reported that 1,300 men are now employed; that 200 or 300 men would be laid off in a week or so, and that $377,000 remained of the ap- propriation, mostoi which would be required to pay balances on existing contracts. He also said that another fracture in the ceil~ ing of the Assembly Chamber had been discovered. It is the rib opposite to that in which the other was found. The frac- ture has been there three weeks, but is not visible from the floor. It is exactly the reverse of the crack in the other stone, and the stone itself is up near the keystone. Auditor Place said the fracture was plainly marked on both sides as though it extended through the stone. Superintendent Eaton said he had a theory as to the cause of the fracture, but Mr. Eidlitz had made calcu- lations and demonstrated to his (Eidlitz'sz satisfaction that it was caused by-unequa pressure, this arch being lower than the other crowded or twisted the ribs sideways. Extra wei ht had been put on to balance the unequa pressure. ~ Tho course to pursue now is for the Legislature to stop all work and all appro~ priations and a point a commission, to be composed of geo ogists who do not resxde in Albany, whose duty it shall be to examine the foundations and report upon the con- dition, formation and character of the soil beneath. If they find that a landslide is inevitable the Legislature will then be in a position to act intelligently and promptly 1n the premises. When the new capitol was commenced, if the commissioners had consulted a geolo- gist as well as engineers and architects, the vast structure would not be situated where it is to-day. He would have explained to them the treacherous nature of the soil underneath, and would have advised them by all means to seek a. rock foundation, for all the concrete in the world piled upon Capitol Hill would only add to the danger of a. land-slide unless it were laid upon the rock without clay or and layers intervening. nu Dangers which Benet the New Capitol at Albany. ‘ . The tear that the m ‘ t building at Albany, the ca' ital ofifvflork state. which has cost ready ten millions and cannot be completed for less than five millions more. Will disappear into the bowels of the earth is troubling the taxpayers of the state. Unscientiflo Albanians effect to sneer at the dangers to the new on iwl. They say that the immense weight 0 the structure will keep it in lace even it it is situated on a bed of quic sand. The great weight of the new capitol is the ver thing which increases the danger of alan - slide. “ The w ' ht of a superinoumbent mass of horizon deposits on wet beds of 01a; or sand produces a lateral movement an also an extrusion,” as s the celebrated geologist, Dr. Dana. of ale College. He continues: “ The laminated olayJayers often become plicated by the pressure, while the beds between which they lie are only slightly compacted or are _unalte'red.” Hand-slides are-of three kinds. but they occur only in clayey or sand formations such as that at Albany. and upon which the newoa itol stands. The mass of earth on a hillsi e.havingover its surface. it may be. a growth of forest trees or blocks of buildings, and below beds of sand,-gravel and stones. ma become so weighted with the waters' of eavy rains and so loosened below by the same means as to slide down the slope by gravity. “A slide of this kind occurred during a dark, stormy night in August. 1826,11; the White Mountains. back of theWilley House," says Professor Dana. “ It carried rocks. earth and trees from the heights to the valley and left a deluge oi. stones over the country. The frightened Willey family fled from the house and were destroyed. The house remains as on an islandjn the rocky stream."_ Professor Dana adds: “Aclayey layer overlaid by other horizontal strata some times becames so softened by water from springs or rains that the superincumbent mass, by its weight alone, presses it out laterally, provided its escape is possible, and sinking down, takes its place. Near Tivoli, on the Hudson River, a subsidence of this kind took place in 1862. The land sunk down perpendicularly leavin‘gx a straight wall around the sun n area a ty or eighty feet in height. An equal area of clay was forced out laterally underneath the shore of the then forming a point about an eighth of a mile in circuit, pro~ jeoting into the cbve. Part of the surface remained as level as before. with trees all standing. Three days afterwards the slide extended, partially breaking up the surface of the region which had previously sub-‘ sided, and making it appear as if~an earth- quake had passed. The whole area mea- sured three or four acres." When the rocks are tilted, as all along the Hudson River. and form the slope of a large hill. the softening of a clayey or sand layer underneath, in the manner above explained by Professor Dana, may lead to a slide of the superincumbent beds down the decli- vity. In 1806 a destructive slide of this kind took place on the Rossberg. near Goldau, in Switzerland, which covered a region several miles square in area with masses of conglomerate and overwhelmed a number of villages. The thick outer stratum of the mountain moved bodily downward, and finally broke ‘up V - .mnntry~z..;with-~nlins3< ‘while other portions were buried in the half-liquid clay (the Albany clay precisely} that had underlaid it and was the cause the catastrophe. Similar subsidences of soil have taken place at Nice, on the Medi- terranean. on one occasion the village of Roccabruna, with its castle, suuk, or rather slid down, without. however, disturbing or destroying the buildings upon its surface. Let us hope that if the new capitol slides into the Hudson it may similarly escape destruction, though this would hardlybe possible, as they build better and more substantially in Europe than here. ‘d’l.--_ L\_- ____ -, -< .
