An oflicial letter from Captain Poole, Indian
A"ent at the Whetstone Agency, Dakota,dated
April 10, to Governor Burbank, Suiierlnlendent
.. oflndian, Aflilhs, in refer nice to a letter from
the latter intimating that the Indians who mur
dered Buck’s surveying party in Nebraska, last,
fall, were at that Agency, states that ho had
made diligent inquiry among the Indians, and
could not get any definite or satisfactory iofor
' mation on that subject,. The chiefs seem in
clined to evade any discussion of the matter, or
give any positive oi decided answer to questions.
The agent suggests, iu regard to action being
token at tbe present time, that it would be im :
practicable to make any amends, or do any
thing that would make any excitement at pres
ent. The Brules and Ogallalla Sioux,that have
rations furnished them at the agency, are in a
very unsettled condition, and if any eftprt is
made at further investigation,will undoubtedly
abandon the reservation and break up into
small war parties and go South.

A Flr*t clnss» Builder.
Travelers agree -that in no country 6f the
world is physical well-being so thoroughly dis
tributed as" in onrs. The American house
holder JiveeJn. a palace of luxury, where the
search after, cemfort Js_e.levated to a science.
His home is a scene where Borne peculiar
gratificationJb lying of his
five senses, and where these gratifications are
laid under command with the ease of enchant
ment. - Of this kind of dome6tio enchantment
the ministering spirit is the spiget. We are
constantly waited on, comforted-and soothed
by some intelligent stopcock or other; where
Aladdin would rub his. lamp, the American
"turns a“ faucet. The householder touches a
stopcock, and his passages and halls, as well as
his largest apartments, are flooded with warm
steam in concealed dr decorated pipes, and
life in marble "halls—which the European
nobleman has found to his cost to he a re-
frigerating bore—becomes ■with us a luxury
He touches another, and fountains of heated
water spring to the top of his loftiest house;
drains are sluiced down to his_subterranean
culverts; or baths," witli their temperature
-haded down to the nicest degree of the ther
mometer,are filled—yet without the possibility
of oyci flowing —on every floor. He touches
another, and his house is flooded with a bril
liant, scentless light, spiritual in its clearness
and magical in its prompt appearance. Ho
touches a button, and his stable-man is tele
graphed for. Another button, pressed by the
hostess with her slipper under the table, sum
mons the powers of the kitchen. Finally,
ihe prowling thief,raising an obscure window-.
-ash ever "bo softly, alarms a button near the
master’s pillow, which starts from the wall
and indicates the particular window disturbed.
We need go no farther with the particulars of
a comfort familiar to all of us. The carpets
softening every floor from the garret to the
around,-the sashes of a single invisible plate,
-the perfection of onr stoves and kitcheners,
not easily explained in a sentence,
are refinements which have become ne
cessities, which the American abroad
most sincerely and sadly misses, and which
excite the wonder and sometimes the jealousy
of visitors from lands which are considered
»ur examples in civilization. The aim in
nu ntioning them here principally to draw
attention to the master-spirit of our construc
tion, theTnodern builder. In the division ol
labor to which nineteenth-century perfection
1 as led, the importance of a guiding spirit to
control them all, is obviously apparent, and
i bat. spirit is Ihe master-builder. He is a man
..-v, ho must combine more knowledge, a*d more
kinds of knowledge,—more taste, and more
fashions of taste,-than the man who built the
Parthenon, tinder his hand all the tubes and
wires collect—towards his -thumb all the
-nigots turn—that aro to’serve us when we
establish ourselves iu a home, aud to make us
il,e comfortable and pampered beings we are.
He is a critic of many crafts, a master ot
tar more arts tbau the greatest architect ot
antiduity, and a man whose worth is to be
appreciated in proportion to the rising scale
ol our well-being. The nineteenth century
is the age of physical comfort, aud the con
structor is its master-spirit.—Wo have just in
-pccted an example ot most of. the improve
ments indicated above,and many more-not

Albertson, No. 120 North Thirteenth street.
Going up Ihroupli this construction,fr.om the
billiard room upon the ground-floor until we
i u-e finally through the aperture over the sixth
-lory of the tower,we were convinced that the
.- kilful conducting of such an edifice to its
completion showed a control of divers details,
and a mastery over confusion, that would,
olhei wise applied, have won some of the bat
tles which Napoleon lost. this is a case
where eveTy resource of architecture aud
every appliance of art is com
-1 lined*.-.- for man’s comfort, and the
careful brain that guides them all in their
difleient channels to a perlcct result is the
I,lain of the constructor. Taking tlio arclu

The building in ouestion lnus been two years

Thorough construction, is shown by the fact
Tail no mistakes bavu occurred,, no detail has

business-cabinet is approached without
muring the main edifice. Meanwhile the
lower rooms are shaded by n portico having
184 feet periphery, supported liy 27 fluted, pil
lars, forming in itselt a construction as.costly
as many a eomfortaiile house. Our business,
however, is not so much with the luxury of'
t.lie owner as \yltli the skill and Cultivation of
the eonstiuctor. Looking now at his com
plete work, the builder has the satisfaction of
knowing that his materials are of the best;
that Ids subordinates have been trustworthy,
and that his magnificent , edifice is not likely
to settle, to crack, to leak, to warp, or tosiift'er
under any of those relapses that architecture
is heir to!—This long history of perfection was
better understood-by us alter a visit to . the
bendquarters ats Thirteenth and Cherry,
where Messrs. Bnlderston & Albertson exe
cute under their own t<yes a large part of all
the construction they superintend. Hero in
a handsome building, with a work
shop larger in ; area than some ‘cathedrals,
"a tfo'op' of tdrty’ fcarpehtefs" make the planes
sing over timber enough to stock a
yard. The shop occupies 75 feet of the depth
of a lot 60x115 foet in size. Stabling for
draught-horses, and ventilation for a large
'stock, of wood always seasoning, occupy the
remaining space. To do a job thoroughly,
thorough and commodious appliances must be
. at command. And the timbering of the largest
building imaginable by,architect may be pre
pared in this superior atelier. , American
building is now at. a pitch of’ astonishing in
genuity. and perhaps other constructors might
5e found equal in ability.to the gentlemen we
have named. Bnt .we have'deliberately se

The Paper to lie a High-Toned Jooraal
A EVEL BETWEEN JOURNALISTS
FROM NEW YORK.
I By the American Frees Association. |
“The New > YairkStandard.”
York, April 80.—Mr. John Russell
young’s paper, The New York tHat,dard, issued
Ibis morning shows itself able at once to enter
tbeticld ofMetropolitan journalism both in :
th 6 Tari<styrof its! news, telegraphic and local,
and its'advertisements, the latter occupying
fourteen columns. It is well supplied by the
Ambjcak I’kkbh Association with its news
from all parts ol the world.
Mr. young’s salutatory says: “ It will be the
'aim oftlie New York standard to bo inde
pendent in politics, to meet every question
and fairly discuss it, to represent, advanced
liberal thought and give every . cause, no mat;
ter bow weak, an impartial hearing. Reliev
ing there is patriotism and public virtue in
airpartiesyit will seek to foster what is good,
and criticise whatever may be corrupt and
false'and debasing. What is generally called'a
• piatfoim or statcmcnt of principles ' will
~ scarcely be expected. The true journal has a
'mission of. its own.'When it becomes a mere
instrument ol any partv or sect or faction, and
swayed hither and thither by every breath ot
passion or anger, it degrades itself and is as
little heeded as a common scold or the town
crier, if I have any ambition in this news
paper, or any hope in its future, it is because
T am sure tliat a journal seeking alwavs to be,
independent, • courteous and - intrepid, must
attain the biglicst and truiistsuccess.
“ Circumstances in thy own career have
- given mu abundant, reason to feel the kindness
and continence of toy brethren of the press,
hnd ot the many friends with whom' I have
hdver had a personal acquaintance.: I make
this acknowledgment upon iny return to the
attire duties ot- a profession to which l have
given the greater part of my life, and in the
pursuit of-wbieb-I-hope to do-whatever-work
may he before me,”
Referring to tlio insinuation of the Brooklyn
Nagle that “ Mr. Young would settle a large
account with Mr. Dana, the editorial says:
■ "Ah to cur ‘aceomit’ with Mr. Dana, it is
good euough to stand. It does not give as the ,
least anxiety and is by no means pressing,
and must yield to more imperative duties.
—This we wili sayrhowtivef, in a general way,
that the very least of the feelings which
prompted _ _ the foundation—rr-of this
newspaper were those inspired by Mr.
Dana’s war upon its editor; for,
considering Mr. Dana as a man with a family
-to support and charged with the earning of bia
daily bread,'we are bound to believe that he
earns it in the way most agreeable to his feel
ings. The wars of journalism are very dis
tasteful to ns. Better that all this printed
paper ehonld resolve Itself back to lamp-black
and rags, than that it should be made a literary'
znaek-heap, a festering,killing and blighting
mass of corruption ana death.’ r

A Duel Bet ween Journalists.
Cincinnati, April 30.—The quarrel between
Mr. Halstead, of thu Commercial, and Hr. Mc-
Lean, of the 'Enquirer, was canned by the
charge of the former that the latter was Inter
ested in dishonest city jobs. McLean posted
Halstead a vulgar liar and blackguard. Hal
stead's Teply was moderate, but his opponent
means tight, and Col. Hawkins of .Louisviilo,
a noted duelist, has been called on to Tiet " as
his second:' Halstead's friends say he will
accept a challenge, and. a duel is expected.
The allair causes much excitement.
Neither the Commercial 'nor Enquirer ; this
morning makes the least allusion, personal or
otherwise, to the proprietors of the respective
sheets, 'now looked upon with so mucu inter
est on account of the expected dael. The
stillness cither bodes the storm with which the:
atmosphere is surcharged, or indicates an
awakenings as of the somnambulist, on dan
gerous grounds.
The Lunsford Murder.
MANSFim.n, April 30.—-Wm. Brady, the
mnsician, who saw a man running away from
the scene of the Lunsford murder, has not
been arrested. If any bloody clothes were
found, in his trunk the tact bits not been made
known here. It is certain that no button with
a piece of cloth adhering to it was found on
the murdered woman’s premises.

Loss, 6150,000.
A fire broke out at 9 last evening in tfte
planing-mill connected with the car-works of
C'.iininjijjgs &lSon-jn-Steuben street, Jersey
City, which resulted in a loss of property val
ued at about §150,000. The works of Messrs.
Cummings 8s Son are on the west side of the
block bounded by Morgan, Greene, Steuben
and Washington streets, ana cover a space of
150 by 200 feet. On the Washington street
side stands the car-shop, a long bviok building
extending from Steuben to Morgan street,ana
containing a large number of passenger-cars
and material lor manufacture. Adjoining
this on the east side wereframe buildings con
nected together, in which were situated the
planing-mill, blacksmith-shop and machine
shop. 'Xho fire was discovered by some chil
dren in the planing-mill, having originated,-it
is presumed, from some coals fallen from the
engine. ’ -
The .planing mill was filled with combusti
ble material, and the fiames quickly spread
through the building, and communicated with
the cabinet-shop, blacksmith-shop, and ma
cliiue-shop. Within half au hour the fire had
reached to Morgan street.
The loss of Cummins & Son is estimated at
§75,000. upon which there is a partial insur
ance. Messrs. Smith & Sayres’loss is $50,000.
The losses of Messrs. Vanderbeck & Son, and
of tlie occupants of the dwellings on Steuben
street, wliijih'are injured to a small extent,
will amount to SIS,CUO.
A fireman, whose name is unknown, had*
bis leg broken, in Morgan street, by the fall
ing of limbers. One of the children of Mrs.
McCuen. who occupied-one of the dwellings,
was slightly, injured in escaping from the
house.
The machine-shop and foundry of Messrs.
Smith' & Sayre, which adjoined the works of
Cummings & Son, on Morgan street, took
fire, and both buildings,-fronting 160 feet,
were soon in llamas. The Jersey City hire
Department.:was -called .out, and made every,
effort to check the progress of the iire. The
buildings were burned to tho ground, and'it
was with extreme difficulty that the carshop
was saved; On the east side the fire burned a
small portion of the lumber stored in the yard
of Messrs. J. J. Vanderbeclr & Sou, but be
fore it had obtained much headway in that
direction, it was suppressed, The property
was largely insured, but in what offices could
not be ascertained. Thejire was oxtinguished •

Tbo 'news of the fatal accident to Adolphe
Buisiay; the young Aiicl accomplished gymnast,
eo ■well known and highly respected here* has
already been referred to in these columns. As
moßt of the reports heretofore published have
been.incorrect in many particulars, we have
taken the trouble to translate from the various
journals of the City of Mexico the following
detailed accounts of the Bad aflair:
A frightful accident occurred on February
27th, at the equestrian and acrobatic enter
tainment given at the Plana de Toros., It had
been announced in .the programme; that M.
Montano would ,go up with a balloon, per
forming on the trapeze bar. For some un
known cause the Mexican equilibrist did not
make his appearance, and it was decided; in
consequence, that the youngest son of M.
Buisiay, aged about twelve years, should' ex
ecute the ascension. ■
M. Adolph Buisiay happened to bo present
simply as a spectator. At * the moment; when
his_ young brother was about to ascend 1 .
"Adomhe j uihpedintO'tlie'arena and ottered to
take his place, remarking that he did not wish
an accident to happen. He took off his coat,
and keeping on the leather buskins ho was
wearing at the time, he caught the balloon as
it ascended; hanging by his feet from the tra
peze. On the sides of the arena were largo
posts, the extremities of which were con
nected by transverse bars. On rising the bal
loon was tossed by a violent wind against one
of these posts. ' At the same moment the head
. of the aeonaut struck violently against it, and
before he bad time to recover .himself the
trapeze became entangled in the traverse far
above, and the force of the wind- eaused the
ropea_ attaebiugrit to the balloon to break.
3he trapeze, bar being' thus detached,
-the . umurtuuate iicrdbat,' after several
-unßuccessfufefl'ortstd.disentatjglehimsplfaud"
to cling to the post, was precipitated head
foremost to the ground, about fifty feet. X) ur
ing ids fail he was noticed to describe several
somersaults or revolutions before reaching the
ground. Many persons hastened into the
arena to the assistance of the unfortunate man,
the" victim at his fraternal devotion. His fall
war so terrible that he was atJHret thought to
he killed. Be Jay, bruised and inanimate,
upon the ground, and the blood gushed from
his noseand mouth.'the greatest consternation
prevailed among the spectators; many ladies

Journalism in Texas is in a flourishing con
dition, if we may judge from-the weekly paper
published at Palestine in that State, which is
!“ devoted to religion, science, news, and -the
practical business of life',” and has for its
motto “■ My Country’s Banner!—Ever may it
wave-'-O’er the Land of the. free and the
Home of the Brave!!!” This is very good,
indeed; and we are glad that there is nnr.h
■ i — . _-Q »wvK
enthusiasm over the 4 ‘ Country's Banner in
Palestine. It is, however, the devotion of the
paper to Teiigion, science, and news, that par
ticularly calls for admiration. Its devotion is
not an empty boast. Thp editor evidently
“ meant oueinees ” in that announcement.
Consequently we find the religious depart
ment adequately represented with a short ex
tract from a Sunday-school, book and Watt’s
long metre hymn, complete.
“ Life is the time tq.serre the Lord.”
The scientific department comprises the multi
plication table.printed entire, and what could
be more scientific than the multiplication taßie
we should like to know " 4_ T or news—well,
there'is a three-column story about “ Wishing
and Doing, 1 ' and a number of long official
advertisements, and “ you pays yonr money
and takes your choico.” We recommend this
Palestine newspaper to the careful perusal of
mankind in general.
