THE DAILY EVENING T El iEGliA.PI I I'll EL A DELPHI A, MONDAY, NOVKMBKK 2, 1868. STE WA R T 'S NEW ST OR B. Twelve Acres of Dry mid Fnury 4ol4 Thn rrtimeiinde-'l'tae Ditme "A'lie AV or huh 4) pH. On lhn first of May, 1807, exoavatiorw were oornmiiced for the fonudatious of Mr. Stew art's new store, on Tenth street, aui to day lie opens to the public the largest retail dry goods eBtablisbuient, in tue world. To ous paeoiug through Broadway or the Fourth vtnu, the exterior of the building, with its loujt rows of Corinthian columns, presents ft grandeur of proportions not to be seen in any other structure in this city, aud the luapresatou left on the mind of the speotatow in rather one of solidity, harmony, and symmetry of propor tions than of strikiug beauty or inaguitioeuoe. Ab the additions, now nearly completed, are but a carrying out of the origiual design f the architect, aud are greater in extent thau the original building, any description of the edifice as it will appear wueu completed, inuat embrace equally the o d part and the new. The entire building, then, has about 200 feet front on both Broadway and Fourth avenue, 3.25 feet front on Tenth street, aud i ix stories ab.ve the street, with basement aud sub cellar. TUo Superficial area of each floor is nearly two acre1', and of all the floors, including the base ments, more than twelve acres. Descending to the snb-cellar, the foundations of the building are laid 22 feet oVep; and the abutuinnts are of the most solid masonry, soma of tliem being Cx7 feet, and the others 5xi; feet. Of these there are at leat oue hundred. The sub-cellar la to ba use! for the storirjg of carpeting and oil cloths before they are opened to the public, aud is conneoted with, all of the upper part of the building by four large elevators. Here, also, nnder the sidewalk ou Ninth street, are four laige boilers for generating steam, by which the entire builditg is to be heated, and also the engine for raising the elevators. Wauder ing through this dark aud cave-like vault, lighted only here aud there by a single, dimly burniug gas-jet, and walking arouud the im mense abutments, the visitor almost expeots to meet behind one of them the Troll who might Veil preside in such a dismal place, and by who3e magic power alone, it would seem, could these massive foundations have been laid. The basement is amply lighted from the Street, and when temporary partitions shall Lave been taken down, the whole room thrown into one, and tilled with all the varieties aud descriptions of carpets known in the markets of the world, it will be one of the most attrac tive departments of the store. This room is but little different from the sub-cellar, except that in place of the heavy abutments plain, Equare, iron columns, each weighing from 8 to 10 tons, rest on the stone-work, and sup port the upper part of the building, and that the walls aud ceiling are more tiuely liuished. Here, also, the long lines of Dorio columns commence, and are continued through all the Stories above. The first story, used as the general sales room for every kind of dry and fancy goods, except carpets, cloaks, shawls, etc, will sur pass in grandeur and beauty any other por tion of the edifice. Iu the centre of the build ing a broad promenade will extend from Broadway to the Fourth avenue, whioh, When the store has been filled will! the rich fabrics of the Old and New Worlds, when the most costly Bilks are displayed by the side of real Cashmere and camels'-hair shawls woven by hand in India, the products of the Jaoquard loom, Jouvin's gloves, and the suowy Irish linen, it will be the most gorgeous on this side of the Atlantic at least, aud will doubtless be patronized and appreciated by the ladies. The immense room is to be divided into sections, each of which will be devoted to some particular depart ment, and all tho shelves aud counters are to be so arranged that the goods will be displayed and yet not obstruct the vie w of every part of the room. Five hundred salesmen aud assistants are now employed, and when the new part is opened, at least twice as many "Will be needed. But by far the grandest fea ture of this room is to be the great rotunda or dome which rises near the centre to the beight of more than 100 feet from the iloor. This dome is oblong or oval in shape, au I is about (50x100 feet in size; the topis of tusse lated glass, and, with the immense windows at the sides and ends of the building, throws a flood of light into every nook and corner of the edifice. For one not versed in architecture, a description of this dome is impossible. It is supported on the lower floor by 10 imnatnse iron columns, weighing at least 20,000 lb. each, the capitals of which are highly orna mented, and snpport a beautiful arohitrave aud cornice. The sides of these pillars are elaborately embossed, having on two of their faces, just below the capital, two Cupids, and below them beautiful designs of leaves and flowers; on the other sides, in addition to these ornaments, ea"h pillar contains the coat-of-arms of the Stewart family, bearing the monogram "A. T. 8." Surrounding these pillars and at a dis tance from them, on sixteen similar columns Somewhat smaller in size, but as elaborately ornamented, and thence through the whole length of the building, extend the graceful Dorio shafts, which, when painted aud pol ished, will appear like a forest of marble. Standing beneath the dome and gazing up through story alter story till the eye reaches the top, one is made dizzy and bewildered by the sight. Column rises on column, floor above floor, until the workmen in the upper most story appear like little boys, while the bright light from above brings out the beauties of the architecture. The sides of the dome in each story above the first are surrounded by heavy balustrades, which add much to its beauty. The windows of the building are all of the most costly plate glass, those on the first floor fronts being each composed of single J dates. These plates, of which there are at east 100, are about 6x16 feet, and could not have coat less than $000 apiece. At night the entire bnilding is to be lighted with gas, innu merable jets projecting from every part of the dome, and by gorgeous chandeliers pendant from the ceiling in other parts of the building, livery light in the building is to be ignited at once by the use of an electrio battery of about 0 cups. To see the building lighted will be a grand and startling eight, when, at by a flash, light shall break in upon the darkness. The stairways leading to the upper storie3 are very broad and of easy ascent, and at the Bides are heavy balustrades similar to those surrounding the sides of the dome. The seoond story is like the first, with the excep tion of the opening of the dome, and that the architecture is not so heavy. This floor is to b used tor the cloak and ehawl department. Here are to be displayed an aore and a half of cloaks, ladies' travelling suits aud shawls of every variety, from the most common to those that are woven in India by hand, and are sold at from three thousand to four thousand dol lars. This floor and those above it are fitted Bp with WMh-rooms and saloons for the use of customers. Climbing one story higher, the visitor is ushered into the outting department, where a great number of women and girls are employed in outting out the garments manu factured In the establishment, and in catting alto for families and other shops. This room occupies the whole size of the building, and is Similar in every respect to the one below. It is well lighted and ventilated, and in every tw7 arranged to give comfort to a&4 preserre the health of the operatives. The fourth and fifth stories are to be used as workshops, where dress-making, embroidery, and inieed every department of the manufacture of ladies' and ohildren'B clotting is performed, except the cutting. In these departments more than seven hundred persons are employed. The sixth story has been added to the while build ing, and will be used for storing purposes. Standing at the side of the dome on this floor, the view of the lower part of the building is as grand as that obtained frcm the first floor. The pillars, too, that support the dome proper, aie of More elaborate workmanship than those in the lower Btories; the capitals of the columas rest upon the shaft lower down, bo as ttx allow a longer span for the arches. The cornioes have also been highly ornamented, aud especially in the gas-light must present a very brilliaut appearand. In the sixth story are two tanks for supplying water to every portion of the building; one of them is about 5x8x10 feet, aud the other 4x8x11 feet, so that both may contain about 700 gallons. The roof is of tin, and has An inclination of about 10 or 12 feet from the dome in the centre towards Broad vay and Fourth avenue. No other building ia the world used for the retail dry goods trade cau in any way be com pared with Mr. .Stewart's, either iu size or magnificence. European companies may pome of them do as extensive business as is to be transacted here, but it is done in several shops, many of which have received additiou after addition, each one totally different from the others in stjle of architecture aud in dimensions. Tho largest similar building in Kurope is two and a half times smaller than this.- Acttf York 'J'tibune. WEAK SISTERS. The line at which a virtue becomes a vice through excess can never be exactly defiued, being one of those uncertain conditions which tath mind must determine for itself. But there is a line, wheresoever we may chose to Eet it, aud it i3 just this fine dividing mark which women are so aj.t to overrun. For women, as a rule, are nothing if not extreme. 'Whether as saints or sinners, they carry a pjinciple to outside limits, aud of all parti sans are the most thoroughgoing, whether it be to serve God or the Devil, liberty or bigotry, Bible Communism or Calvinistic Electiou. Sometimes they are just as extreme In their absolute negation of force, aud iu the narrow ness of the limits within which they would oon fine all human expression either by word or deed and especially all expressionof feminiue life. These are the women who oarry womanly gentleness into the exaggeration of self abatement, and make themselves mere foot stools for the stronger creature to kick at his pleasure; the weak sisters, who think all self reliance nnfeminine, and any originality of thought or character a a olleuce against the ordained inferiority of their sex. They are the parasitio plants of the human family; creatures which live by aud on the strength of others; unable to stand alone, and, when deprived of their adventitious support, fall ing to the ground in a ruin perhaps worse than death. It is sal to see one of these Weak sisters when given up to herself after she has lived on the strength of another. As a wife, she was probably a docile, gentle kind of Medora at least on the outside, for we must not confound weakness with amiability Eufl'eiing many things because of imperfect Servants and unprofitable tradesmen, maybe because of unruly children and encroaouing friends, none of whom she has so much moral power as will enable her to hold in check; but on the whole drifting through her days paoe fully enough, and, though always in difficul ties, never quite aground. She had a tower of strength in her husbaud, ou whom she leaned for assistance iu all ehe undertook, whether it was to give a dose of Dalby to the child, or a scolding to the maid, or to prououuee upon the soundness of two rival sects each touting for her soul. "While he lived ehe obeyed his counsel not always without a lutile echo of discontent iu her own heart and copied his opiuious with what amcitut of accuracy natuiehad bestowed on her; though it must be confessed more often making a travesty than a facsimile, according to the trick of inferior translators; and not necessarily better pleased with his opinions thau with his counsels. For your weak sister is frequently peevish, au i, though unable to originate, is not always ready to obey cheerfully; cheerfulness indeed being for the most part an attribute of power, bull, there stood her tower of strength, aud while it stood, she, the parasite growing round it, did well enough, and flourished with a pleasant semblance of individual life into the hollowness of which it was no one's business to inquire. But if the tower falls, where is the ivy ? Take away the husband, and what becomes of the wife-, when oue has been the life and the other only the parasite ? Aban doned to the poor resources of her own judg ment, she is like one suddenly thrown into deep water, not knowing how to swim. She has no judgment. She has been eo long accus tomed to rely on the mind of another that her own is paralyzed for want of use. She is any one's tool, any one's echo, and, worse than that, if left to herself she is any one's victim. All she wants is to be spared the hardship of Eelf-reliance, and to be directed free of indi vidual exertion, the is utterly helpless Lelpless to act, to direot, to decide; and it de pends on the mere chance of proprietorship whether her slavery will be degradation or protection, ruin or Bafety. For she will be a slave, whosoever may be her proprietor, being the pabulum of which slaves and victims are naturally formed. The old age of Medora is Mrs. Borradaile, who, if her husband had lived, would have probably ended her life in an honorable captivity aud a well-directed sub serviency. We often see this kind of helpless weak ness in the daughter of a man of overbearing will, or of a termagant mother fond of man aging and impatient of opposition. During the plaBtio time of her life, when eduoatiou might perhaps have developed a eullijient ameunt of mental muscle, and by a course of judioious moulding ehe might have been somewhat fairly Bet up, ehe ia snubbed and suppressed till all power is crushed out of her. She is taught the virtue of self-abnegation till ehe has no self to abnegate, and the backbone of her individuality is bo inces santly broken that at last there is no back bone left in her to break. She has beoome a mere human mollusk, whioh, when it loses its native shell, drifts helplessly at the meroy of chance currents into the maw of any stronger creature that may fancy her for his prey. One often sees these poor things left orphans and friendless at forty or fifty years of age. They have lived all their lives in leading strings, and now are utterly unable to walk alone; they are infants in all knowledge of the world, of business, of human life; their youth is gone, and with it such .beauty and attrac tiveness as they might nave had, so that men who might have liked them when fresh and gentle at twenty do not care to accept their wnnaiea helplessness at lorty; they nave been kept in and keDt down, and so have made no friends of their own; and then, when the strong-willed father dies, or the termagant mother goes to the place where the wicked ta nta frnm tmnlkltn. 4 V. a mnlttioV (Ima li.n. hitherto protected ia left defesoelesa and alone. If she has money, her chanoes of esoape from the tocial sharks always ou the lookout fr fat morsls are Try small indeed. It ia well if the falls into no worse hands thau thine of legitimate priests of either seotion, whether enthusiastic for chasubles or craay for mis sion!; and if her money is put to no baser use than supplying church embroidery for some Brother Ignatius at home, or blankets for con verted lr loans in the tropics. It might go into Agapeuiones, into spiritual Athenwums, into Bond street back parlors, where it certainly would do no good, take it any way one would; for, as it must go into Some side-channel dug by stronger hands than hers, the qnestiou is, into which of the innumerable conduits offered for the convey ance of superfluous means shall it be directed ? This is the woman who is sure to give iu to religious excesses of on kind or another, and for whom, therefore, the convent system would : be a godsend past words to describe. She is unfit for the life of the world outside. She has neither strength to protect hrself nor beauty to win the loving protectiou of mau; she cannot be taken as a precious charge, but she will be made a pitiable victim; aud under the gloomiest aspect possible, surely the uar row safety of a couveut cell is a belter (ate for Ler than the publicity of the wituess-box at the Old Bailey. As she must have a niaUer, her o -edition depends on what master sli.j has; and the whole line of her future ou whether she is directtd or "exploited," aud used to eerve noble ends or base ones. As a mother, the weak sister is even mora unsatisfactory than as a Fpiuster left to herself with funds which she can manipulate at plea sure. She is affectionate aud devoted; but of what use are affection aud devotiou without guiding reuse or judgment? Even in the nursery, and while the little oues need only pbystcul care, she is more obstructive thau helpful, never having so much self reliance or readiness of wit as to dare s remedy for one of those Buddeu maladies incidental to children, and dangerous just in proportion to the length of time they are allowed to run nuchecked. And if she should by chance remember any thing of present value, she has no power to make her children take what they don't like to take, or do what they don't like to do. In the horror of an accident she is lost. If her child were to cut an artery, she would take it into her lap tenderly enough, but she would never dream of stopping the 11 jw; if it swallowed poison, she would send for the doctor who lives ten miles away; aud if it set herself on fire, she would probably rush with it into the street for the chance of assistance from a friendly passer-by. She never has her Bense3 under command aud serviceable; and her action in a moment of danger generally consists in unavailing pity or in obstructive terror, as she herself is Bafe or involved, but never iu nseful service or iu valuable suggestion. Hat if she is useless in her nursery while her children are young, she is even more helpless as they get older; aud the family of a weak womau grows up, un assisted by counsel or direction, just as the old AHam wills and the natural bent iuclinas. Iler gitls may be loud aud fast, her sons idle and dissipated, but she is powerless to oorceot or to influence. If her husband does not take the reins into his owu hauls, or if she is a widow, the young people manage matters for themselves under the perilous guidance of youthful pissious and in experience. Aud nine times out of teu they cive her but a rough corner for her owu share. They have no respect for her, aud, unless more generously compassionate than youug people usually are, scarcely care to conceal the contempt they cannot help feeling. What can she expect ? If she was not strong enough to root out the taivs while Bull green ana tender, can ehe wonder at their luxuriaut growth about her feet now ? She, like every one else, must learn the saa meaning ot retri bution, and how the weakue.-s which, has allowed evil to flourish unsubdaed has to share in its consequences and to suffer for its sin. Unsatisfactory in her home, the weak sister does not do much bUer in so'ciety. She is there the embodiment of restriction. She can bear nothing that has any flavor or color in it. Topios of broad human interest are lorijidlen iu her presence because they are vulgar, im proper, or unfrfmiuine. She takes lwr staud on her womanhood, ana makes her wouiau- hood to be Ecmething apart from humanity in the gross. There must be no cakes aud ale for others if she is virtuous, aud spades are not to be called spades when she i3 by to hear. She is the limit beyoud which no one must go, under pain of such displeasure as the weak Bister can show. And weak as she is in many things, she can get to a certain strength of displeasure; she can condemn, per sistently, if not passionately. Nothing is more curious than the way in which the weak sister exercises this power of condemnation; and nothing much more wide thau its scope. If incapable of yielding to certain temptations, because incapab'e of feeling them, she has no pity for those who have not been able to re sist; yet, on the other hand, she cannot com prehend the vigor of those who withstand such influences as conquer her. If she is still under the shadow of family protection, safe in the power of those who know how to hold her in all honor and prosperity, she cannot forgive the poor weak waif yet no weaker than herself who has been caught up in the outside desert of desolation, and made to sub serve evil ends. As for the womau who is able to think and act for herself, she has a kind of superstitious horror of such a person, and shrinks from one who has made herself notorious, no matter what the mode or me thod, as from something tainted, something unnatural and unwomanly. She has even grave doubts respecting the lawfulness of doing good if the manner of it gets into the papers, and names are mentioned as well as things; aud though the fabhion of the day favors feminine notoriety in all directions, she holds by the instinct of her temperament, aud lan guidly maintains that womau is the cypher to which man alono gives distinctive value. Griselda and Medora are the types to her of womanly affection, and the only strength she tolerates in her own sex is the strength of endurance and the power ot patieuoe. She has no doubt in her own mind that the ordained purpose of woman is to be conve nient for the high-handedness aud brutality of man, and any woman who objects to this theory, aud demands a better place for herself, is flying in the face of Providence, and forfeit ing one of the distinctive privileges of her Bex. For the weak sister thinks, like some others, that it is better to be destroyed by orthodox means than saved by heterodox ones; and that if good Christians up hold moral suttee, they are only pagans and barbarians who would put out the flames and save the victim from the bnrning. So far she is respectable, iu that the has a distinct theory about something; but it is wonderfully eloquent of her state that it should only be the theory of Qriseldadom as womanly perfection, and the beauty to be found in the moral of Cinderella sitting supinely among the ashes, and forbidden to own even the glass slipper that belonged to her. Fortunately for the world, the weak Sister and her theories do not rule; indeed, we are in danger of going too much the other way in these times, and the revolt of onr women Against undue sUrery goesvery near to ft re volt against due and wise submission. Still, women who are to be the tun there of men ought te bave some kind of power, if the nun are to be worth their place iu the world; and if we want creatures with backbones we must not look for them from mollusks.
