The torriblo disaster of Thursday afternoon, by which nearly two dozen hard-working men mflered a terilble death, Is still the all engross lnu topic of conversation. The fooling of grief throughout the community Is uulversal, and all the more so from the fact that the families of many of the killed are left In a dostltute condition. TUB RtriNJtD MILL was ereoted early in the year 1801, from the plans of Mr. J' hn McA.rthur.Jr., by Mr. Uharles Goehnian, to whose t-slale the property still belongs. It was constructed In a substantial manner, the interior arrangements being fully strong enough to support the heavy machinery used in the business. Mr. Goehmau carried ou the work of turning, planing, and sawing fancy scrolls lor cabinet-junkers, until the time of his death, nbout one year ago. For a short time after thut the business was conducted as before, In the nuine ol bis widow; but in February last a five yeurs' lease whs given to Messrs. Geasey A Ward, the former of whom had formerly car ried ou a similar business at Twenty-third and Cbesnut streets. The boilers and machinery were constructed by Messrs. Morgan A Orr. There were two of the former, known as return flue boilers, cost ing 8.S0D, and they are said to have been fully tested before being places in position. Heveiai valuubie additions wore m.tde to the machi nery by them, thus materially incroHSing the loss. As stated lu Thh Avkning Trlbquavii of jei-terday aiternoou, the loss sustained by this firm amounts to about J 111,000, while the Bcfaoinxcker tiauo Forte Company lose about 910.0. The building cost tlU.oa) when erected In 1801, and owing to the rise In tne value ol real estate, was probably worth about 424,000 at the time of its destruction. This would make the tolal loss amount to $41,000, exolusive of that sustained by Messrs. Miller, Reader A Co., which cannot now be estimated. The property belonging to the estate of Mr. tioehman was quite heavily insured, there being 83000 on the stock, $6000 on the building, and 81000 on the office, in the Fire Association, , and S&U00 in the Koyal, of Liverpool, on the boiiers, shafting, etc. But as tne whole estab llshmentand all its con tents were laid lu worth less ruins by the ex p onion, no claim can be wiade npon the Insurance companies. The lire hat bioUe out immediately alter the explosion Aid nothing more than char the shuttered tim bers, wi:icn were certainly of little value In their then condition. THE WOliK IN TUB RUIJ99 was continued throughout yesterday, and did not cease uutll about 0 o'clock in the evening. The two men who ventured upon the shaking Wall, for thepurposeof adjusting the ropes to the chimney, when the latter was overturned, as already described in Tub Kvjcninq Tkl.ii orapjb, were members of the Washington Hose Company, and were named John Currlgan and James Hockler. The task was both ditlloult and dangerous, but the work of removing the bodies of the killed from the ruins could not be prosecuted while the chimney re mained standlug, and ready to fail at any moment. Great credit is, therefore, due to these tnen for their fearlevs venluro. indeed, the flieuien have labored from first to last, in this distressing affair, in a manner that untitles them to the gratitude of the entire public. But there are nniong our fireman a few characters Who are a disgrace to their fraternity, as well as a pest to the community. One of tueso was ar retted for robbing a corpse of an empty pocket book, while anotuer escaped with a gold watch, taken lrom the same body. About 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon the over worked and exhausted Bremen were relieved by a number of voluuteer cabinet-makers, whose exertions were soon rewarded by the dis covery of the remains of Mr. George W. Geasey and Bainuel l)..rgu. .Neither of them bad been reached by the tire, but both were horribly crushed by the falling timbers, and must have suffered au Instant death. Both the bodies were found In a sitting posture, In the southwestern corner or tne ruined mulcting, me ueau ox Mr. Ueasev resting on his left arm. TUB DEAD AMD MISSING.

THRSCKNH OF THE F.X PLOSION TIII8 MORNINO. Notwithstanding the drizzling rain which continued throughout this morning, crowds si 11 1 gatheied aud lingered about the plaoe, while their excitement manifested no abate ment. A more dismal picture could riot be imagined than thut presented to all observers. About half after 8 o'clock willing hands set to work cleai ingaway the rubbish, aud labored steadily through the drenching rain ln search of ft lends and relatives. Now and then a burnt shoe, bat, or tattered piece of cloth, brought to light by the excavation ln the debris, would be carefully examined by sorrowing friends, as a Ohio to the whereabouts of the missing. Fathers and brothers were there, who gathered around the scene of desolation, living lu that awful sus- fiensewhen a taint ray of hope almost forces tself npon inevitable truth, that the missing could not have perished. A volunteer force of fifty men was offered to those in charge of removing the rubbish, to relieve the firemen and others who had labored so tnergettcally since the catastrophe, it Is known that three bodies lie at the base of the chimney, and are covered up by a large pile of bricks and timber. Thb Littlb Orphan Poor How Thhy Livk. But few comparatively, engrossed with the cares and duties of life, have so ireely a thouubt for the atoms of humanity which drill along in such a vast metropolis as this. None there are who care for them, not one to guide or direct them in the proper paths of life. Imagination scarcely exaggerates the picture, words fall to express the reality of the listless rovings, the loneliness, the pinchlngsof hunger and want of poor little outcast orphans. And of such there are many, coming from the lower classes, who care little or nothing at all for the little ones suddenly bereft of parents. Charity cannot always extend its benevolent hand, public officials often fall to point them out, and the negligence of those who once were neighbors leaves the little orphan ones to ramble alone, nn cared for. unknown, through the thorough fares, to gain a livelihood as best they cuu. Whai, a life is theirs I Their only home the streets. Their sustenance wnat little they can earn, and olten steal, or what they beg from door to door. Their meagre clothiug, the cast-oil' garments of others, for summer too hot, and lor winter utterly incapable of keeping out the chilly blasts and penolratiug cold. Coverings lor their beads are eo varied as to defy enume ration, but all answering to the geueral title of "ventilation gossamers," Their scanty ward robe is ever with them, and a tattered hand kerchief would be an easy substitute for a trunk, wherein to place their little all. At ail times i lie friendless orphans are the last to leave the thoroughfares which have been thronged all day by the ceaseless, hurrying streams of humanity. Could you watch tueiu as one by one they dart down gloomy alleys, up dark streets, aud Into mora dismal courts, their sleeping plates would be brought to llzht even ainiu the darkness. What a story could some old and rickety stair wt-y tell, if its battered and weather siainid boards had but the power of utterance, of the Utile, lonely, ruei urchlu who sought Its protection at the hour of midnight, and cud dled b-ne till Us tottering form, to son himself to sleep, while the wind whistled through tue chinks, making ttie old stairway creak aud groan In harmony with bis loneliness ! Or, of some old box, siaiidina in some sombre nook, mat, was a welcome miener iro. a me Dealing ralnp, the blustering storms, aud chilly night air. Were you but omnipresent, you could wit ness me appropriation, uy tnese utile outcasts. of eld buildings, with which time and wear bad maue sad navoo, anu lor years nau Known no tenants save rats and roaches; of damp cellars, marble steps, ana mniuer yarus, as nightly re sorts. But a lew hours would they be tenanted. Belor the dawn of day, these little editions of the "A'andering Jew," done up ln rags, would rouse themselves, periorm tneir ablutions nt, the nearest Dumn. aud then commence their reeular dismal tramp up and down tue streets. Their modes or life are as varied as fancy's whims can make them, but ever kept within the bounds which poverty makes for all. Their vocations are many. They compose au array of bootblacks, while in no less number they are the squads of newsboys who are dally met about the streets. Borne choose the harder life of beggary, which is but poorly rewarded for the many petitions that longing looks, plached faces, and battered forms can make. A large number, helped onward by rude speeches aud rougn usage, nave aireauy, oy petty actions, crossed the threshold of the criminal world. In the day time they pass on every hand, at niuht they stand upon the steps of our theatres eegerly watching to catch a glimpse of the Imaginary world within. Or by the aid of the bard-earned quarter they gain the upper circle, only to feel more snarpiy tue contrast oi tne two extremes of poverty above and wealth below. A hard life is theirs 1 One full of tempta tion and sad destitution. Many have been gathered Into the homes which the charitable have endowed. But their number is but a mi nority of the great army of orphans to be found scattered throughout this great metropolis. The Homes lor mese wanuerers are nuea. Their managers have done, are doing a noble work, but their willing bands are cramped by the lack of support. Let not the progress of one of the grandest of objects be hampered by want of mean s. but let our kind-hearted cl ti re us come to its rescue, ln order that these little orphans may be brought under wholesome keeping, where they can be educated aud ele vated, so that they may make good and upright citizens of the community. A TlIXBUOMETKICAL STATEMENT OF TUB Wkatbem. We give below an exhibit of the range of the thermometer for the first eight days of June. It will be seen that the coldest weather was on the morning of June 1st, when the thermometer marked 65 degrees, and the hottest season was on the afternoon of the Cth Instant, when the mercury ran up to 87. For the coldest and warmest seasons of 1&6, whioh occurred on the same days, and at the same time as those of the present year, the ther mometer marked 68 and b5J degrees respec tively.

It is the evident duty of every man to insure his life auainst such casualties, and yet, though there are on an average ten accidents to one tire, yet men take ten times more care to Insure their houses than their bodies and limbs against ininrv and mutilation. A word to the wise should be sulllclenl. There are two or three good Accident, insurance uompanies repie u.i.imi tn this citv.

Procla mation from Napoleon III. Tuileriks, June 7. Whereas, to-day, while tho Canr of the Uusslas and myself were returning from the review in the Champ de Mars, a pistol shot was fired Into my carriage at the Czar, and came very near bitting me. This is to notify tbe people of France that, If they value the life of their Em peror, they must not shoot at bis frleuds while they are ln his company, especially In so close 7 roximlty to tbe person of the Emperor of the French as to be sitting on the same carriage seat with blm, as mast unpleasant conse quences might ensue from an imperfect aim. As much confidence as tho Emperor has ln the military skill of the French people in general, and the soldiers iu particular, yet an indis criminate firing of pistols ln the direction of the Emperor will not be allowed. The Emperor hereafter will not be accompanied by the Czar. The Czar's suit, or one similar to it, was on sale last winter at Charles Stokes ic Co.'s Clothing Store, under the Continental. . Now their counters are filled with Summer Clothing. (Signed) Napoleon III. ITS-W. A B Clothing Cukapkst akd Best. Hi" It7. ' Ji. Clothlnti - VhraiH-tt mid Jlrxt, tt tr.

I lad ley. When brought from the apartment be occupies in tbe Jail into the presence of tho magistrate be was accompanied by a friend, who, it was said, was au old avqualutauce, whj bad known him In California. Ills manner was cool and collected, but there was a nervous twitching of the lip and a res t lesBuess iu the eye wblcb bespoke a mlmltlluc ease, and a strauger might ut once have readily fixed upon him as the principal In this uu buppy uftuir. During the examination wnlcn ensued he appeared to be at times overcome with drowsiness, aud closed his eyes and nodded his bead as if overcome by sleep. There wa also observable a nervous twitching of his under lip and fingers, as uu Indication that he felt seriously the critical position, ln whton lie was placed. There were present only the "Ul cers of the jail, the prisoner and his counsel, the magistrate, tbe prosecuting attorney, und members of the press. Dr. James II. Arrasby was tbe first witness sworn I am u practising physician and surgeon ln tula city; examined, the peisou of Mr. Hlsoock ou tbe evening of June 4, at btimw lx Hail; It wat near S o'clock past that hour; be was lying on his back, with his head towards the door by which I entered; It was In a bud room up stairs, In the east wing of the hulUhug: there was a crowd of people iu tho ioou), and two or three other physicians; I noticed i)rs. Havens aud Stevens and one or two medical students; tuere was a wound under the rlgbteye: I passed aprobe nearly the length oi it lnlo the wound; the direction was slightly up ward and Inward, crushinir throusrh the bones of toe race aud the base of the skull, nearly iu tiie direction of thespinul marrow, where It unites with the brain; Hi ball must have lodged In the back part of the brain: the probe moved trecly lu a lateral direction. and I could touch several fragments ol bone; there was quite aspace made by the ball and the fragments ol bone that had been carried before It; I did not touch thebali; tbe ball most likly gluiieed upward, and may have been some distance from tbe end of the probe: he was dead at this time: I placed my band over tbe heart; tbere was no pulsatlou; the wound was un doubtedly tbe cause of his death; the wound could have been made by a pistol bull. The examination ot this witness being closed. Mr, Hartley, the prisoner's counsel, said he bad no ques tions to ask.

Mrs. Cole, the wife of tbe prisoner, and one ef the principal parties iu the tragic eveut, is a daughter of Judge Barlo, of Truraansburg, Tompkins county, and a half sister of Henry D. rtarto, a prominent uemocrauo politician, a member of tbe Democratic Ht ite Central Com mittee for a number of years, and of the present Htate Constitutional Convention. Mrs. Cole bad a large property, held ln ber own name, and is reported to bold a half interest la the Henry D. Barto A Co.'s bank, of Truruansburg.k TUB TONE OF THB ALBANY PRESS. The tone of the Albany press in referenoe to the illscock tragedy is much deprecated by all disinterested persons. There is an evident attempt on the part of some of the Journals here to excite a prejudice against the prisoner. This is altogether wrong, no matter how unjus liable bis act may have been, aud it is likely to react ln favor of General Cole. It may in the end elicit from the friends of the prisoner an assault upon the antecedents of his victim, aud Involve some outside parties lu the unpleasant ness of newspaper discussion. Tbe letters .and photographs taken from the body of the de ceased, and handed to bis relatives, may yet bear an Important part ln tbe investigatien. Fhilada.
