His counsel, Jr. Small, who s also in court, fook the case on a writ of error to the Su- preme Court, eud the Supreme Court reversed the decsion of the Court below upon two grounds; the main one, Lowever, is that the Court below refnsed to change the venue on_the application of the prisoner. 1 have s certified copy of the opinion of the Supreme Conrt in the case now in my hand, in which they hold that the Court should hive granted a change of venue, The Court—I have read the opinion. Mr. Reed—I call up the case this morning, aznd desire the couneel [Mr. Small] to stato whether be ‘desires to recew that motion nov, and have the venue changed. Mr. Small—Undoubtedly. ” Th; Court—You wish to insist on the mo- on ? Mr. Small—Yes, sir. ITr. Reed—The statute provides, if the Courb please, that the next nearest county —— The Court—Yes, where the caude complained of does not exist. Lake County is probably —— A M;* Reed—What has been the uniform prac- ce? - The Court—Tt is the most converient county. Mr. Small, is that agreeable to you? 2T Small—I want to sy this: I bave been in- formed that it was not advisable for this case to g0 to Lake County. I bavenot drawn any peti- tion with & view of having it taken from Lake County and gent, to any other connty, but if, in the opinion of this Court, to whom this petition is now addressed, ClriStopher Rafferty can gecuro as fair end impartial trial of his cause there in that county 2 in aay othor county, 1 shell acquiesco in the venue being changed to that connty.

Eversbody around the City Hall was talking about gas yesterday. Many opinions were pressed. the mejority favorable to the new com- ‘pany. Although nothing definite could be learned, it was generally believed that, with some amendments, the Nationzl Gas Company's ordinance would be passed by the Council. Meyor Medill said he was not opposed to addi- tional gas companies ; on the contrary, ho want~ ed to ses more in existence, if tho eople conld secure cheap_ gas by competition. e, however, denounced - black mailing” comapenies, and did not propose that aay sham ordinance ehould go through his hands and be approved. He had no objection to signing the 25 ordinance as originally presented by the ommittee on Gas Lights, when it provided safeguards and precluded the sclling. ont of gtk or the formation of combinetions ; buthis sutegraph would never be appended to any docu- ment waich would enable the men who engineer- ed it through the Council to extort money from the old gaa companies.

The lecture of Josh Billings, in Lyon’s Hall, on Monday evening, was poorly ettended. Why will not lecturers learn that the Evanston public ‘believe themselves intellectual paragons, and not even to be instructod on the subject of **coclroaches 2" Dr. Cleveland’s lecture in the University Chapel, being tres, was well attended. The spoaker was lisiened to with marked itention to the close. Tho Beethoven Musical Society has secured J. A. Butterfield, of Ckicago, s a leader. None ‘but musicians of promise are admitted. Omne praiseworthy feature is. that all fees end dues have to be paid in advance, thus insuring the finencisl success of the enterprise. They ore now practicing one of Besthoven's - oratorios, and expect to give a public entertainment befora the close of the winter. A PLEASANT SOCIAL EVEST. A vory pleasantyoung people’s party was given by Arthur and Kate Ducat, on Taesday evening. Invitations wero issued to tho number of two hundred, and onthe eventful evening the com- modions and elegant parlors of Genoral Arthor C. Ducat were filled with youth and beguty. The heslthy Masters aod charming Misses appeared mostly in full dress, and, under tho influence of music's magic spell, tho hours flow by on angel wings, and joy reigned unconfined. Big parties may bo dall to-| graver people, buf surely the young enjoy them, Genoral Ducat and Iady may have the satis- faction of knowing thet no more recherche aftair has ever come off in Evenston, and the lads and Iasgies who attended will not soon forget the enjoyable occasion, gotten up regardless of ex- pes EVANSTON HAS ITS SENSATION not o divorco caso, neither an ornithorhyncus, but & wicked, wicked man, whose delight is to terrify the fomininity of the not more populous than popular thoroughfaro known as Chicago savenue. He is described as a woll-dressed man, with mustache, whiskers, hyperian locks ef al., uniformly scen after dark (by tho Jadies), withs his bends in his pockets, sauntering loisurely along tho walk in front of thres blocks on tho aforesaid avenue. » A certain Litchen-mechanic seoms to bo tho object of his especial admiration. It was her custom to lay in the supply of lactoal flnid for the family in tho ovening, and on going to o neighoring house for his purpose, sho alwaya found this mysterious porson waiting ot the gato, -ready to accompany her, He never offered her any violenco, or oven spoke ; but she gets hor il in the morning mow.

Whecler, C. F. Gray, Ambroso Foster, and J.H. Kedzie; President Gilbert in tho chair. Minutes of last mecting read and approved; after which the Committee on Firo Engine made a report of progress, and asked to be continued. The fire ordineace, which was adopted, pro- hibits tho erection of wooden buildings within a tract extending 150 feet on_either sido of Devia strest, from the Centro of Maple aveaus to the alley Gast of Chicago avenue. An ordinance was passed changing the names of all stroets running north and. eouth, to ave- nues, and all avenucs running enst and west to streets, thus making an_uniform nomenclature. The name of the weat end of tho main strect running through the town, formerly known as College uvenu, waschanged to Davis street, the name of the east ond. Two new streets on the west side of town wero mamed Emerson and Lons streote e e STATE STREET BRIDGE. The Truc Reason Wiy the Structure is Not Completed—Tue Iron Roof of the Water ‘Works Also Delayed. Afany persons have asked the question, “ Why is not the Stato strect bridge finished?” and the Council, believing the Board of Public Works to e responsible for the deley, passed & resolu- tion, at its last mecting, calling upon the Board to complete the structure immediately. The Moyor, yesterday, when asked about the bridge, answered the interrogatory satisfactorily. He eaid the iron for the superstructure should have been delivered long ago, under the contract, but had not been, owing to the inubi ty of the contractors in Pittsburgh to furnish it. There scems to have been an extraordinary de- mand for iron all over the country the present year, and the various establishments whichman- ufacture it bave been unable to fulfil their con- tracts within tho time speciied in the agree- ments, The difficulty which interfered with the completion of State strcet. bridge has als retarded the work on tho roof of the Wate Works. The last instalment of iron for the lat- tor rezched Chicago only a few days since, when it hould have been hers two or three months ago. Very little more of the iron-work for the bridge is required, and tbat Tittle is expected to arrivo in a woek or two. When here. a week at least will be required to place it in position ; hence three weeks more must clapse beforo the North Side will be accessiblo by way of the State street bridge. The Mayor thouglit the Council wss too hast; passing the resolution referred to, remar] that thie Board of Public Works was doing every thing _possible in_tho wey of writing and telo- graphing to the contractors fo mako haste to complets the worl, and that tho adoption of 500 resolutions a day would not hurry forward the work an hour. e SN THE BOARD OF TRADE AND SCOTT CASE. E HMUNN & o the Editor of The Civicago Tribune : Sm: Your commercial articlo in to-day’s Tare- uE aske, Wil the Board of Trado take any ac- tion in the alleged fraudulent warehousing traneactions of Munn & Scott? It thea pro- ceeds to say, in substazce, that the Board will consume two or three days indiscussing the con- duct of a member, ths extent of whose alleged default is measared by 2 few hundred doliars, but that it does not follow that Munn & Scott will be Jcoked after; thet the big fish are not al- ways caught, but that the little are, etc. Such language a5 this would not surprise me if uttered by a few persons who are restive tn- der tho wholesome restraints of the rules of the Board, or by & less intelligent and candid person thin your commercial editor ; but I am certainly more than surprised that rour journal hould, in thi e instance, become the medinm of de- fraction through which the Board of Trado is thue asporsed. _Your commercial editor ought foknovw that thereis no reai foundation for Bis charge that tho rules of the Board of Trade are Dot impartisily and fearlessly enforced by he Directory whenever complaints of thair vielation ‘are duly made and proven. If you, s a pubiic ‘monitor and guardinn of the commercial hcnor of Chicago merchants, Wi cauae formal com- plaint to bo made to ‘the Directors of the Board of Trado that Munn & Scott have been guilty of any business misconduct, derogatory to their honor as business men gnd meimbers of the Board, I will assurs vour readers that the charges will Lt fairly end fully investigeted, and, if proven, punished. But, as the Amwer vested in ihe Board in such cases js limited to the simple exposure ond espulsion of offenders, and as Munn & Scott, so far as any business_inter- ests or intercourse are concerned, have virtually withdrawn themselves from the Board, the ques- tion will arise, W‘bafilfrrcn.ter ‘punishment can we inflict, after an official investigation, then has ‘begn inflicted by their public exposure, already made? Would it add anything to the dignity of the Boerd of Trade to suppplement the fall of Munn & Scott by & formal expulsion ? There are very few members who would care to person- ally sssume the position of public prosecutor under these circumstances. The Directors can- not act unless eome ope does assume this fanc- tion. But, if you will furnish the complainants, the investigation will be had, 2nd judgment will be rendercd without fear or favor. "Again, our Btate Legislature, by direct enact- ment, hes sought to divest the Board of Trade of all supervision of the warehouse business in this city. 1t bas created a Board of Warelouze Commissioners, and has armed them with au- thority such as the Board of Trads never ogsessed, eyen before it was divested of what ittle supervisory power it originally had under itg charter, or by voluntary assent of the eleva- tor proprietora. I8 it not, then, rathor to the Commissioners, the State’s Attorney, and the Grand Jury, that you should meke your cen- gorious appeal in behalf of outraged justics? In conclusion, 1 beg to ask. as s merchant, a member of the Board of Trade, and one of its officers, if the occasional flings at the honor and integrity of the Board, kindred to thie of which 1 now complain. are the kind of encouragement and support that Chicago merchanta have a right to expect from the Chicago press in behalf of the leading commercial body of the Northwest ? Such a spectacle of disrespect is witnessed, on the partof the press, in no other city in this country, or in the world. Respectfully. i MznrcrANT. Ccaco, Nov. 20, 1672, ITALY. Fhe Great fnundations, From the London Times. The fioods in Italy are assuming proportions of which our own esperience of English inund tions would give & very imperfect idoa. With ua, *the rain it raineth every dey.” In Italy tho clouds condense their fury on a few days of autumn and spring, at which latter scason their volumo is aided by tho sudden thaw of the ac- cumulated winter snows. They rush in a thou- sand streams down tho mountain slopes which bave justas much slent as seems contrived to give tho_dolugo the most terrific momentum. fhe tidings of disaster rench us from overy quarter of the Peninsula; from the Genoese Riviers, whero between the Appenrines and the Bea border thero seems to be hardly a span of Jovel land ; from the extreme point of Calabria, where the bare ribs of Aspromonte plunge al- ‘most perpendicularly into tho deep. Still, it is from tho lovel plaina that we hear reports of tho greatest ravages, and more especially from those flats of Pledmont, Lombardy, and the Emilia which aro apt 0 assume the appear- anco of & dismal swamp the moment they cease to be a fertile peradise. A glance ot the map will bo sufficient to reyeal thio peculiar conditions of that favored region. Tho Alps encompass it on tho west, north, and east, in the shape of & vast crescent from Nico to the Izonzo. On its northern watershed the ptrewms of this chain divergo in every direc- tion ; the Rhonme into Frauce, the Rhine into Germany, and the feodors of the Danube, tho Tler, tho Lech, the Isar, and tho Inn, into Aus- tria. Bat on thesouthern side the watercourses converge into one channel—the Po; and six times as much water as spreads over any region of Coniral Europo north of the Alps meets in ono common trongh south of these mountsins. There is, too, thig difference, that while the northern streams wind leisurely down long and comparatively gentlo declivities, tho southern torrents tesr down wall-like slopes, crags, and cliffs, a3 if eager that their course shoul bo as rapid and destructive as it is short. Tt would be neadless to say that, under such cir- Ccumstances, tho plain of North Italy must al- ways have been subject to floods. ‘The Romans found it & great morass, and it was only by tho most strenuous offorts that thoy reclaimed it, draining and plowing it, probably by slave labor. It received further improvement in the Middle ‘Ages, whea, by the construction of navigation and irrigation canals, offorts wore made to' turn into useful servants thoeo larless streams which hed been such formidable masters, Finally, in Iater times, the introduction of rice enabled the people to tuxn to profit even those lower plaing which admitted of no other cultivation, and which,although unhealthy as rico grounds,would ‘be huch mare g0 if not cultivated at all. The draining of the marshes could, of course, ouly bo effected by dykes or embankments. But the streams brotught dowa not only water, but earth and sand, and vast masses of rocks and debris of the mountains choking up their beds in the l2ins with deposits of sand and mad swhich ave been advancing 2nd rising for centuries, The dykes had, of course, to be raised as tho rivers rose, and had to be made strong enough to support: nll the enormous volumaof tho waters which are now flowing several feet above the lovel of the plain, Theso dykes are master- pioces of human skill; they tower above the fiats i some pleces as bigh as tall hoases, and their stracture is 50 massive and solid_that highronds runon_the:topof them; yetthey quiverand groan like Mings of life when tho strcams are et their full, and the waters eithor flow over them, or breek through them, as those of the Po Dhave done now at Revere, dejuging the Tichest Dodeneso plains betwecn the Secchin zud Panaro, and carrying 8o sudden ani irresistiblo & Lizvoc over those gopulouu districts a8 not only to lay waste the richest ficlds, but also to over- whelm whole villages, not unfrequently with griovous loss of human life. The river-side Population, aware of the precarionsnoss of their position, are usually ready for o life-tnd-death struggle with the hoatilo element. On_ the first alarm they are all up, headed by their engineers, and aided by such troops 68 may hieppen to be quartored among them. They run along tho Dbanks, dive' into tho raging water, and some- times’ succead in stoppiog gaps, patching up rents, and buttressing up tho trembling dike, With & courage, skill, and devotion fully equal to the emergency, On’ very disastrous. occasions, 28 it Bcoms in tho pragent instance, they are overpowerod and_ have to slacken in their exertions till tho floods give sign of abating. Unfortunately, although it is the plain that guffers, it is the mountain that is at fault; and there the evil has been growing for centuries, and is oy almost alrogetber past remedy. Tho volume of water which pours down from tho Alps ond Apennines was, probably, ot all times tho seme; though it moy be that, when tho mountaing were mantled all over with wood, the ‘moisture was more constant, the rain more fro- ent, and consequently less violent. So long, glso, a8 the wholo upper region was e mass of grecn the rain of the meltod enow was trapped, as it were, by theroots, the trunks and the fallen Tolingo of the trees, Ithad to tricklo andstrug- glo through ondless obstacles, and its down- Ward flow was in some measuro broken; what came down was only, or at least mainly, water, and it found its way to the sen through unob- structed channels. But_for these last four or five hundred years the Italians, like the Pro- vencals, like the Soaniards, like all tho peoplo plong the shoresof tho Mcditerranean, have been stripping the monntains of their primeval forests without dreaming of replanting them; and the result has beon.n gonoral crumblin down of the soil, leaving the rocks bars an bleak with deep’ Ecars and_seams, everywhere ‘marking the path of the landslip and the ravine. The evil, a8 we have said, is already of ancient date; but it has agsumed enormous proportions since highroeds and railroeds have made the deepest recesses in the mountains accessible to the woodman’s axe ; and the demand for timber and for fuel for steamers and railway engines has only too_ amply rowarded his destructive iabor. ‘Theinjury done 1othe plein in Italy, however grievous, is not irceparable so loug a8 it can be kept within certain limits; for the de- posits .of the mountain streams are not irre- claimably barren, and a few yeara’ care is suffi- cient to cover them with fresh green and oblit- erate every trece of their ravages. But the wear and téar of the plain ie tremendous, and therais always the danger that the destruction may get tho better of all human energy and erseverance, for, wherever the water is al- owed to spread at large and stagnate, not only the flooded surface, but the whale region for miles aroucd is apt to generato malaria, and risks a relapse 1nto that swampy condition from which Romaz enterprize rescued it. Three or four years of incessant foods would render vast tracts of beautiful Lombards as unhealthy ard desolato ss the Tuscaz or Pontine marshes are now, acd other atrips of maritime territory all along the coaste of the Peninsuls and of the islands of Sardinia and Oorsica, The disasters of tte plain, ss we have stated, have their origin in the mountai: Eowever arduous the task may be, whalever amourt of time. care, and cap- ital may have to be expended upon it, the Ttal- jans must resone their couziry from the ravages it suffered at iba bands of their forefachers ; they muat reconstruct acd, as it were, recreate their moustains, by xsp!ulin; and protecting those forests which their forefatiers and them eelves kavo ruthlesely destroyed. —_— She South Carolina Senatorship. Hou. R. B, Elliott, the colored Congresssn from South Carolins, has published a card in the Columbia Union denying with somse warmth s report current in thet State that he in tends to withdraw as s candidate for the United States Senate. He says: “Tam a candidate for the position of United States Senator from this State, and shall remain & candidate until the final voto shall have bi reached by the General Asszmbly. Underlying my candidacy isa question of principle, Tight, and justice, which I am determined, so farasl am sble, to have asserted. Iam determined to hase the question at once settled as to “whetber the lack of money shall exclude men from office, or whether those qualities alone that can con- scientiously appeal to the higher sersibilitics of our manhood shall prevail. My every effort shall be to bave tho whole of tho people of tkis State, as well as of the entirs country, under- stand whether or not the performance of the pledges recently mads by the Reputlicar patts, ehall be foreskadowead by the blighting infinecce of apurchazed seat in the Sevate ¢f thena- tion." MANSARD. Something Abont the Grezt Fremch Architects From the New Fork Times, t ig carious that when Francois Maneard, tke greab French srckitect who invented the 100E nown by Eis name, introduced it to public no- tice ic the construction of- & hotel in Paris, tho ‘whole profession fell foul of him, and attempted to drive him from Paris. He was caricatured by Lucas Cranach in an amusing cartoon, which Topreeented him escaping from Paris on & dimin- utive donkey, pursued by the hissee and shouts of the professton, sod hugging to his breast a modslof a chatean, with enormous curb roofs. Some account of the life of this truly remarka- ble architect will probably be relished by the public at the present time. He was born in Paris in the year 159, of a fam- ily that had " been long eottled in the capital of France, but which was of Ital- ian origin. His remote ancestor, Michsel Man- earto, who entered the service of the Carlovin- ian g8 shortly before the usurpation of the apets, is atyled in the old Latin chronicle Ca- valius Romanus, by which itis to be inferred that he had some protensions to nobility. _The €on of this Roman knight was srchitect to Hugo Capet, and aleo tanght mathematics to Robert, the roi faincant. Thoe name of Mansard is to be traced in the annalsof Charles V., comes up 8gaia in the diary of Charles VIL, and is found ingeribed on great numbers of monuments dur- ing tho reigns of Louis lo Gros, Louis VIL, Phil- ip the Fair, and Francis I. Enough maybegath- ered from Lbis briof, scanty pedigree to show that the fomily had distinguished themsclyes in tho profession of srchitecture during a period of many hundred years. Tho young Francois Mansard was the apprenticeof hid uncle Germain Geutier, who wes worker in wood to the reigning King, and also architect, though in ibis laiter branch he does not seem to havo been highly distinguished. His nephow was quick to learn, and displayed, not only a wondor- 1ul facility of combination, but a rasé taste, pre- ferring 1nstinctively the chefs d'@uvre of antiqui- ty, upon which subsequently he ondeavored to mold & atylo of Lis own. His early efforts were confined to vorks of no great importance, and the firat great affair placed in his hands was the erection of the Hotel Touloues, in which he dis- played 8 mastery over the general plan, anda graep of details, which showed him to be one of ¥he great oncs of architecture. His_stelior bo- camé crowded with noblemen and sich provin- cial Presidents, who offercd him commissions of the most remuncrative kind, and the Chatean de Borry and the Chatenn of Choissy sur Seine attested still further his consummate genius. In 1632 the Commandeur do Sillery desired him to contribute his_plans for the erection of the Church of the Dnughtors of the Virgin in tho Rue §t. Antoine, and his ekotches were 50 uni- Versally admired by the Court that Gaston of France, Duke of Orleans, and brother of the King, Louis XIIL., ordered him to construct tho Chateau de Blois, which be commenced with great upirit, but which was nevor finished. 1t was when cagaged on this work that he devel- oped his extraordinary mania of pulling down what had already beeu completed, in order to re- build it on & totally different plan, which ho con- ceived superior. Thie, though prompted by his dewire for perfection, was most annoying to Lig patrons, and brought him much vexation and trouble. Ho was, howeser, too great an archi- tect to be_neglected, and Annio of Austria, the Qucen of Louis Treizo, having a spaem of piety, ordered bim to build the chapel of the Val de Grace. His Qesigns were universally admired, but when he had advenced to a certain stage of completion with the work & new thought struck his fancy, and he was ebout to tear down tho walls, when the Queen, informed of what he was aboat, to do, abruptly dismissed bim, and the chapel was confided to another architect, who finished it loyally according to the firat plaus of Maneard. This groatly onraged the eccentric artist, who, to show Her Royel Maj- esty ~what sho had lost, constructed the chopel of tho Chatesu do Fresues on the lans which he had designed for tho Val do vaco, reducing them, however, to _one-third of the original proportions. This work hes justly been considered by French architects tho very carl .of chapels and the perfection of art. Bliortiy aftor this great triumpa, be was com: missioned by the President of Longueil to build for him his Cbatesu des Maisons, near St. Ger- ‘main en Layo, and he produced plans which do- lighted the heart of his patron. The building Was to be a largo central facads with two wings. Tho centre was finished arnd also the eastern wing, but hardly had he completed the latter when 2 brilliant conception for the wings struck him, and, withoutn moment's hesitation, -with- Out deigning to eay 2 word of the matter to his employer, he demolished the entiro wing. But his second plan was g0 exquigite, and the com- pleted structure so uniform, £0 hsrmonious, go thorough in =all its details, that tho President mnot only forgave him for the frightful additional expense, but gave him hearty thanks and a_munificent’ pres- ent. The Primo Minister, Colbert, who had succeeded Cardinal Mezarin, consulted with him about the construction of the Louvre, and Man- gord produced some cxcellent sletchos. ' Very beautiful,” ssid Colbert, *‘but I want nota sketel, but & definite plan.” * My plan is inmy herd, Alonzeigneur,” returned the intractablo architect, and even the threat of sending for Bernioi from Rome could not force bim to pre- sent a plan which he would promise not to change. ~Bernini was sent for, but Mansard ex- erted all his influence for bis French rival, Per- rault, and it was the latter who had the honor of Duilding thet superb palace. The last work of Maneard wos tho facade of the Church of the Little Ones, in tho Place Royale, Paris. He died in 1666, 2t the age of 69, full of years and honors, leaving behind him avother architect of his _name, Jules Hardouin Mansadt, the child of his sister, who wasmarried to Har- douin, the painter. Tho young man studied vehemently with his uncle, for whom he felt tie greatest veneration, and on_becoming of ago as- sumed the namo of Mansard. His ability wae by 1o means so great as that of his relative, but he bad no eccentricities, and his manners were #o leasing that he became ontirely beloved by Louis IV.,who made him his architect and Superinten- Qent'of Public Buildings. He built for this great monarch the pelaco of Versaillgs, the Hotel des Tnvalides, the Placo des Victoires, the Clateau of Dampierre, the Church of Notre Dame do Versailles, besides planning the pelaces of Marly and lo Grapd Trisnon, Ho planned, also, the Placo Vendome. The King presented bim with the Order of St. Michel, and rewarded him for his gervices 80 liberally that he accumulated a large fortune in spite of o somewhat extravagant ex- penditure, He died suddenly in 1708, at the age of 63, aud was buried in the Churck of St. Paul, st Parie. His tomb was constructed by the sculptor Cogaevox, and was spared during the Revolution. It hae since been transferred to another church of Paris, whers the curious may still seo it. i The styio of the mncls Francois Maneard, though open to criticiem, is acknowledged by all to be full of nobleness and magnificence. It has, however, been 8aid of him that, i kis ef- forts to bring the Renaissance nearer to the spirit of the antiquo, ho lost the smiling ele- ganco and grace which distinguished it durivg the epach of Francis I, and -gave it az air o pombreness and an ucdeniable heavinese. Buo no man underetood better thar ke did, the geo- eral distribution of o plan. He was abacltiely master of his conceptions, dowa to tka most significant of details; kis proSles wers d ished by their precision and troth, and ne, he was one of the greatest architects that e over produced.
