Mr, Willtam Smith, foreman of the pattern room at the ir-mworks cf N. 8. Bouton. has just inventad a di- rect arung hydraullc engine, which he claims i be superior 1o any engine of this kind now in use, The grext trouble witn hydraulic engines has thus far been ihe groat waste of witer, and thut leaking ocould ot be prevented. Jir, Smith's engino olviates this troutle, and thereis no possibility of leakage. The hydraulic engines in useat procent are mainly made scrviceable for elevation and hoisting purposes. Mr, Smiths engine, on tho conirary, can be adipted fo any kipd of work for which ftesm now has to be used. This new engine consists of four cylinders, the two eater forming the engine proper, and the inner ones formiag $io cases for Talve-bores, Toe valves conmstof two pistons bal- anced on an equilibrium and,worked by two eccentrics. The piston-rods are guided by s parallel motion on the top of each cyiinder. The supply-pipe is proviced with a larze air-chamber, to prevent the pipe from burting if the water is shut off suddenly. This en- fine is claimed to be noogualed for simplicity, dura~ Tility, snd economy, and ill supersede steam-engines and every other GOWer wherever,as in the qtyof Chicago, the supnly and pressure of water are suficient. T: requires noenginser to wark it, and it obvistes all the riaks of fire and steam. TEE QUO WABRANTO.

Storrs’ Interview with the President. Mr. 8. Declines to State Just What ‘Was Said. — Lot Assorts that fho New Duilding Will Not Be Polled Down. What Mueller Intends Doing. Various ramors werein ciroulation with regard to the object of Mr, Emery A. Storrs’ visit to Long Dranch. It was stated, xmong other things, that he ad faterviewed the President with reference to the Custom-Houre Duilding in thoe ioterect of the Duena Vista Stone Company—otherwise Mueller, and that ex- Senslor George A. Pugh, of OLi>, Gen, B. F. Butler, Tom Murrhy, of New York, and one or two otbers had sccompanied him in his journcy. It wes also ra- mored that the President sgroed to order the removal of Buperintendent Holman, and the rosumption of ork on the buildlng, and that tho Hon. C. B, Furwell was going on to Washington to clinch the matter. Tn order to ascertain what trath thers was in the ru- Imors, reporter of Tae TOISUNE visited Mr, Btorrs at the Palmer House, Ho was vory reluctant abont leing interviewed on the subject, but,at the same time, waa willing to communicats all such facts aa in s judgment might properly be communicated. THE FOLLOWING CONVEESATION TOOK PLACE : Teporter—1 understand, Mr, Storrs, you have been to Loog Branch ? M, Storra—There has been no particular disgulse sbout that; Ifind that the fact of my return Lome Liaa been announced in the nowspapers, R.—T heard you visited the President to get his con- sent to tho work on the Custom-Honse proceeding, &nd that be promised it should proceed 7 ‘Ar, 5.~1 vieited him for no such purpose, made no such request, and got Do such promise, R.—Have you any objection to stating THE OBIECT OF YOUR VISIT to the Prosident and whiat its resnlt was? Mr, 5.—I am tle counsel of Mr. Mueller, and my visit to the President was in that capacity, -The enti:e business, €0 far as I was concerned, wan professionel, snd you can_readily perceive the improvriety of my communicating the specific objects of that interview or its result. R.—W1ll Gen, Holman he removed ? Mr, 5.~ don't think it proper for me to siate whether in my onfnion he will or will not be removed. R.—Do you think the but'ding will be TORN DOWN 2 Mr, 8.—T have not the slightest idea that it will be torn down, ond - I have no iden that tho Presi dent feels Himsolf st oll concluded by the report of the Commission which Las already becn mide, The President is quite apt to judge for bimself, and, in my opinion, before inflicting #o ro- rious xn injury upou Chicago nnd upon pirdes who hiave contracts with the Government, be will reedily receivo all such information ws muy bo furnished bim with reference to tho security of 1ho Zoundations and the general character of ke sione sl in the building. MUGLLER’'S PLANS. - R.—What does Mr. Mustler propose to do? r, §,—Mr, Mueller proposos to demonstrate to the Pproper suthorities and to the pubdo that the report of the Commiasion, conaisting of bleesrs, Post, Nor- cross, and Bmith, was grossly unfair and unjust: {hat 'jt wea bueed upon un exumination hurtied and suyerficial to the Last degres, upon the nesumption of facts which do not exist, and upon & refasal to aviil themselves of such means of knowledge a8 lay at their very hands, and as they could have readily secured in Cincinnati, st the quarries, and here. R.—~Do you thin & that either thio President or the Department will recelve and consider any statements to be made by Mr, Mueller 2 Mr, 8,—1 have no doubt but tlat they will be glad to receive and consider all such evidenceszs Le masy be prepared to furnish of his compliance with tha con- tract, and 26 to the durability and general charucter of the stone. R.—Ii Mr, Muel'er should make sny such statement would it be made public 7 Mr., Mu or anybody else, that Le would desire to have with- drawn from tne public, What be particularly wishes 18 that oll the facts may be known. B.—DId you prezent to the President ANY DOOUMESTS OR AFFIDAVITS om the oceasion of your interview with Lim 7 Ar, §,—None whatever. The porfod of time which hod elapeed between the publicution of the report of the Commission and my interview was altagothor too short to bave propared documenis and atidavits, even haa we desirod to do so, "R.—Will you furnish the President with documents and afdavits relating to the quality of the Buena Vis- tastone ? ‘Mr, 8. —Should we do 80, the newspapers will know of it within twenty-four hours after the President has received them. S~ ias Mr, Mueller socured the spplicaticn of any selentific test to this stons recently 7 Mr. S.—Yes, sir. Tho stone has beon subjected to the most thorough geological asd chemical tests by somo of the most eminent geologists aud chemista in the country, and fn every mstance the reports which they have made bave Leen entircly satisfactory. But, after oll, the most satiafactory tesisaro tho practical ones which time furnishes. This stono hus beon Goed very gemerally in guciomst for over thirty years, and _wil " “most _satisfactory results,” There ars fino blocks of buildings of this stone i New York, Boston, and Philadelphia. The stons of which the £nglish Houscs of Par- linment are built wns gubject to the most rixid scien~ tiflc tests. but time has demonstrated tha Insuticloncy of those tests, Under the action of the coal smoko of Tondon, tho stono is falling to ploces. Next to Pitts- purg, Cihcinnati ia the amoklest city in America, but the “Buepn Vista stone has stood itaaction, 2 the ‘buildings there very satisfactorily demonstrate, R.—What Liave you to say as to THE REPORT MADE BY THE OHEMIST referred to in tho report of the Commission 7 “Mr, §.—Nothing at present; but wo apprebend no aort of trouble with that report, nor with the chemist Fho made it, when the facts 38 to the manner in which it was made oud the specimens furnished him for his tests ara made public. ‘R.—Do yon ciaim thut there are any misststoments of facts in the report of the Commission ? Mr, 8,—Very serious MISSTATEMENTS OF FACTS. There aro statements in that report with regard to the character of the stone and evidencos of vegetablo ‘matter acserted to be found in it which would be ut- terly exploded by reference to anv Realogist of any character in the conntry. R—Do you think thers was anything in the per- sonnel of the Commission which infiuenced them in ‘making their Teport 7 3 i Mr, 8.—Most decidedly. Should Mr. Mueller pre- pare s public_statement that subject will ceriainly re- telve sttention, 2nd no _statement tn that Teport, 8o faraa it roflecta upon tho Buena Vista stone, would pess unnoticed or unanswered. BWere_these subjects of dizeussion at your inter- viow with tho Presideat 7 . Mr. 8T again decline to state what subjecta wers disenssed or what the President said. But one thing Sou can bo well casured of, that the Chicago Custom- ‘House and Post-Oliice s WILL NOT BE FULLED DOWN until there are very much more satisfactory reasons for pulling it down thsn bave yet Leen furniehed. Too much money has already been expended upon the work to justify any precipitate sction in that direction. T suppose it ia a matter of public notoriety that Mr. Bristow bad an interview with the President with Teference to thia very subject, and that the President's Yiews as to protecting the building and the lack of authordty {0 use money appropristed for its construc— Hon for the purpoee of tearing {t down, embodied in Mr. Bristow's indorsement of the report, were definiie- 1y expressed. WHY? the R.—Why did you go to tho President? Dir, 5.—Because we wero entirely confident that the President had no pereonal feelingin the matter, and no personal eads to subserve ; that he is so made up that he will give every man a fair hearing, and = fuir. chance for hialife; thut he will patiendly hear what any man who clalms to be sggrieved by the action of the Government haa to sy ; and that he is not afraid of taking the responsibility of acting on his own judg- ‘ment aiter s full nnderstandiog of the facts. R.—Aro you satisfed with tho result of your inter- view 3. 8. not at all disheartened, With this the interview ended. OBITUARY. DR. 0SGOOD. 2 Inthe desth of the Rev. Lewall M.

The New Youk Tribune of ‘Touraday last says of the Holy Trinity organ recitals : The lnst of this series of concerts was given on Wednesday afterncon by Mr, S, P. Warren, whose programme comprised a fantasfs and fugue in G mi- Dor by Buch (the same lately given by Thomas at the Central Park Gurden); an unfinished theme ang va~ ristions, and_a concert plecs in C minor, both by Thiele, and Reubke's great C_minor sonata. The ‘most interesting of theso was Thiele’s ** Thema snd Veriations,” the completion of which was prevented by the composer's fudden and untimely death by cholers in 1818, it still lacking the tinale; “yet, incom- pletess it is, itis oo of the noblest of his works, and ad he been atle to write the Auale it would probably have becn his masterplece, so far at least a5 we can fudge from his compleied works.

But the old fellow persisted in selling 2,00 {nstead of 1,870 pounds for ono ton of coal. Then I had taken to the racking bnsiness, I had on hand the carcaeses of forly Aldermen in & drygoods box. I swas sitting thercon, and trying to keep them from spoiling, but it was all of no avafl. Thoy were 80 cor- rupt that they became even more decayed, aud the ‘more brine I put on them, the more th decayed, To excite my courage to aid me in the work, I seized what I thought was & tobacco box and took & chew of tobacco, and chewed end spit 2as if I were a Great ' American spit-machine, I dreymed it ‘was of the Spread-£azle braud, snd I chewed and spit the harder for it name, Sberldan was beside me and coaxed me to desist from my labors. It was no use, he sald, to try to pickle Aldermen when they had once begun {0 decay. I quit my dreamy labers and awoke ‘with somehody poking my ribe ° Suddenly I heard the sezaphic voice of my wife crying, * Charles, don't you spit in my faws sgain or Il sue for a divorca ;. and quit chewing ap the cotton ‘batting of my best comicrter, or I attach vou for contcmpt,’ Then I awoke, 20d d:uyou know, Mr. Reporter, that I filt mad at myself for not bouscing that'mfernal old nightmare.” The old gentleman took a pinch of snufl, threw an- other In the face of the fainting reporter,’ and again cautioned him never to mention the ridiculous circum- stances of Dano's dream.

Yesterdsy mornicg Mr. Danlels, the editor of the Trest Chicago, collected » $2 subacription from Mark Sheridan, remarking at the time that if he didn’t get itthen he would probsbly go short forever. Mark paid the tax without a murmur, and Diniels went away rejoicing in the eseion of 8o much money. Some time afterwsrds one of the Commiasioner’s many frieads pointed out an articis in tne West Chi- cago’ which, among other hard things, dubbed him » “wid Irshman from _Bridgeport.” It suddenly oocurred to Mark that the aditor's pecuniary visit was s contemptible kind of emartness, and he resolved to got even with him on the first opportunity. In the afternoon. Danfels peered timidly into the room, expecting that his trick was a'acorared, and that be would bean unwelcome visitar. On noticing his pres sace, Mark cordially invited him to ol forward, which Diniels did ratner reluctantly. W Diniels” sud Sheridan, Emiling pleasantiy, “ad you think the printing of that orticle would ‘make me refuss anmsnl of » just due?” “I did,” replled aniels, ¢ Why," re- Jjotned Mark, * nothing would have been farther from iny mind, When cne dog baris, all the little gflp\'\lel in the neighborbood eare bound to follew suit.,” This sally was greeted with a pesl of Iaughter, but Daniels ‘was visibly affec ed, He ieaned up againsta desk for several minutes cogitsting on 1!s application, and then ‘beat a retreat without uttering o word. THAT PROMISED DISCLOSURE. Sheridan’s promised disclosure of oficial corrup- Hon was the only topic of conversation around the city Hal. “Tho 'Midermen wero ighifully scared, [l kept whispering to each other as to the probable offect and extent of expose, Mark was importuned on ail hands to divalge what he knew, but bo {avariably excused himself on the ground of impolicy.

Mr. Sheridan—What we don't intend to doja to make Hildreth the Fire Marshal, That's very certain. R—What stezs do you intend to take towards setting ‘matters in regular order? A great many persons,” said Mr. Sheridan, “ have asked mo why Mavor Colvin appointed Jucob Rehm, Buperintendent of Police, contrury to my explicit and emphatic protest. I made no answer. They replied that 1t was for the purpose of makine tho Chicago Clty Government a ¢ per cent ’ government.” R.—Does the Polise Board tntend to wipe out the presenc Superintendent BOME PERTINENT QUESTIONS. Mr, 8.—Ttisa well-known fact that the closest pos- sible intimacy exista between Mayor Colvin and the Superintendent of Police, 80 clese, in fact, that daily, almost hourly, conferences take place between them. Why 1s it that the Chief Executive bas ed his appolntee should of the city in re- aton to " gumblers, bunkolets, pimps. and can-canists? And why is it that the s appointes of the Mayor bas not executed these ordinances, ‘when ordered to do 0, time and_sgain, by the Board of Police? Ititnot s fact that the members of the Board obtained a list of the gaming-liouses that were running, and handed a tist of the same to the Bpperin- tendent, with instructions that they be seen to 7 doya after, said list was ‘handed in, setting forth that houses wers not Tunning? Why did it take two days to make such a report, when it could have been done in half an hour ; 201 by what secret sgency were the proprietors of these houses made aware of the fsct that they wers being closely looked after by others than the detectives, 2a 50 warmed to leave the premises in which they bad been doing business 7 WHAT MARK ASKED JAKE. 1 summoned Rehm before me, and sxked this ques- ffon: * What truih is there in the prevalent rumors and general belief thut pcreentage is paid by the gam- blers and bunkoists to certain officers for the benefit of the Chief of Police? Has not your attention been frequently called to these thinga by the ‘members of the Board, end have you not been advised to adopt such measures as would remove that impression from the public mind, and is it true that certain ‘members of the police force have been uppolnted collectors of the percentage said to be paid in by the gamblers snd others to secure immunity from arrest? ™ ‘Theeo are & fow questions, said Mr, Shoridan, which Mr. Behm and Mr. Colvin may make snawer to.

Mr. Bheridan went on asking pertinent questions : Why was the combination on the lock of the safe in the City Clerk’s office in which the ballot-boxes were placed after the election changed,—a combination which had never before been changed without the kmowledga or consent of those who hud » right of ac- cess to it 7 That there were more questions to be asked waa sp- parent, but the Commissioner repeated his old s1ying, # Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof,” snd ro- markea that Mr. Colvin and Mr, Rehm would find in these enough to answer for the present.
