Tin eareor of Edward 8. Blokes, wbo.iow occupies the cell of a con demncd murderer in the New York Tombs, may ba briefly told. .. Born in 18m, of woallhy paronta, ho received every advantugo of education, and at the igo of twenty was set up in bui ncssin New York by his father. By bis vild apecnlutiona ho involved not only the senior Stokes, but otbors of bit wealthy rolations, and in tho end macb them bankrupts. With ihe wrak of his fortunes, young Stoket emlarked next in the enterprise of re- finiii! oil at lluntor't Point, and ox- ponied $300,000 of hit own and other mei'a money on the works, vvtiicu wo it of the boat class. Tho company bccime involved, and at this juncture Fi.it came upon the scene. A con trail wat struck, Fisk ontored tho ro fifury company, backed it wilh capi tal and ruilwuy favor, and it suilcd int) tuccessful operation. Stokes was Setrclary as woll as partnor, and his in cono was at one timo $1,000 per week In 1SGI he married a Miss South- widt. daughter of a furnituro deal er f great wealth, and moved in the moil brilliant circlet of the metropolis the young couple lacking nothing that wealth and social position could bring to ie euro happiness. Now tho woman Multifield appeared In the plot, a quar rel ensued botwecn Stoket and Fisk, which was carried into affaire of busi nis : tho incomo of tho former from lht refinery was cut off, and, enraged Iherout, he ticaed $.10,000 of the com pany's funds, which he wns finally compelled to disgorge. The relations bolwcen Stokes and Mansfiold grow moro disirracoful and shitmelos, and hit father in-law, Southwick, sent hit diiuirhlcr and her child to Europe in 1871. to remove Jier from Ihn Inini of ecandal. Out of H tli.a nrvvr t and finally murder. The stoumBhip that took out the news of Fisk's at- s.isination, carriod out divoree for Sttiko't wifo, whinh had boon procured by her friends. Tho ttory of family trrlif and reverses is not all told. The sen or Stokes, after thirty yoart of ro ti rt mo nt and enjoyment of a luxuri. out homo, It bankrupt and homolcst In hit old ago. Ono of tho daughtcrt died two weeks after murriage.

And when, o'.er the railway that winde and twislb its tortuous way up tho rugged mountuin, daily passed hundreds of cart laden with bitumi nous coal, who thought that before tho mining for coal should bo fairly de veloped the earth would again be mined for another production no less useful, that production which it just beginning to be put lo uses various and extended, the ttliciout fire-clay J And who now realizos tho impor lance which this branch of industry is doslined to reach, or tbe magnitude of tbe wealth to bo developed wbicb now lies hiddon in veine of fire cluy that line our hill tides?

TUB KILNS are three in number, each with a ca pacity of 80,000 bricks. At wo taw iem, one kiln wat being filled, an other was burning and a third was burned. This rotuliou is always ob served and thus an empty kiln is con stantly ready to receive ihe bricks from tbe floor. The bricks are placed poo their edges in the kiln each layer being at right angles with tho other, and tho bricks were closely pilod at the bottom to protect them from tbe great heat and to resist the weight of tboBe above. When a kiln Is full the doors are sealed wilb ccmont,tho fires igblod and kept up for seventy hours. The work is then done, and from tbe door opposite tho ono which they en tered unburnod, the burned bricks are taken to the sheds on tbe aiding for shipment. Tbe facilities for shipping are excellent. About a rod from tbo floor ure the kilns, and the other ond of tho kilns open upon tbe landing. Ten thousand bushels 885 tons of coal aro consumed monthly, and the works turn out 200,000 bricks per month, employing a FORCE of fifty six workmen. Tbe bricks now made at these works ere ueed in steel works, rolling mills, blast furnaces, tuunories, ko., and for oach purpose bricka of different composition are re. quired. So far is this true thai bricks suitable for the furnace in which stoel is smolled by the Bessemer process require to bo differently constituted from those of a furnaco used in the Seaman process. The bricks for puddling furnace would be useless lor a blast furnace, and bricks for a rs- vcrberatory furnaco would not bo dur able in a cupula. And in understand ing the philosophy of these several re quircmcntsand possessing skill to pro portion tho different clays used so as to produco material fitted fur oacb spocilio requirement, lift the secret of tho success of the brick manufacturer. There are two distinct kinds of clay, usually found together, which are necessary to Ibis result, tho bard and soft. Mr. MvMath, tho manager of the works, one of tho most practical fire-brick men in tbe alalo, from a life- ex perienco in the manufacture of brick is able to explain the sciene or brick making in a manner highly intercst- ng to tho inquirer, for instance, his theory of the brick to bo used in a puddling mill is somothing like this : Hero we have an Intense heat, to Willi- stand which we must have a brick firm, compact, but yot porous, pressed hard, yot an opon briok, lor Ibe occa- BlvtlMI u.e.isj..ee v. wiu sj brick not porous, would cause il to chock from Ineqnulily of contraction We must havo a good conductor of boat, and ihe imporous brick it not u good conductor. Tho VEIN OF CLAY, sixteen feet in thickness, is oompoted of three strata, tho hard, soft and shclley, in the ordor in which they are named, from the surface down wards ; and from those, mixed in the proportion known only to tbo initia led, the bricks are mado, aa is also tho Gau'iBler from which tho cement is mndo, utcd in laying the brickt. Tho cement It mado from tho mixed clays by grinding, calcining and sifting, Tho company, however, has now on trial a quarts mill, tuch as it used in the gold regions, which is expected to simplify Ihe proccse. It will cost in tho neighborhood of $300. We have Indicated above some of tho uses of fire-clay, but, although it is just coming Into nan, we have not spoken of half ita Utility. Besides what wo have mentioned, terra cotta ohimnics,lwn ornaments, flower vases, retorU, flogi for paving stroeU, lining of stove, etc, enter Into the list of articles into which il It con verted, aod all aro undoubtedly but a tltht of th utei to wbicb It will be put, Tho question of fire proof build ings may yot be solved by fire-biiok, and as il can bo moulded into any form, ornamental or manivo edifice may be built', which will render Chi. cago or Boston disastort more matter of bittory. Two indict ol ure-uncK would oppose an effective barrior to the greatest couflagation. The ml terial is plenty, our bills aro full of It, and if there it such a thing as con -itrucljng a fire-proof building, firo brick is the material with wbicb to. do it.
