THE MARKET. WHT IT 18 QUIET. ‘t'he real-estate marrket of this city Is ins isr condition. This was shown by the re- ult of the auction’sale of last Wednesdey. Previous suctions this year had mot been s FTo- cess, but better things were boped of this. The property offersd was desirable, well located, aad the owners were nob under any necessity of sacrificiog it. The attendance was large, but the eale was s failure. Those pruent'aumed to have come with the parpose of buying only for one-third or ope-hslf the value of the Jand. Two or three lots were put up to test the bidders, and their intentions not coinciding with the views of the sellers, the auction was bronght to an end. The rosl estate sgents give us an explanstion of the fact that many of the negotiations opened come to naught, that scllers rofuse to make concessions. Owners are firm in thebelief thatthe future holds large profts for them, and will not,vield snything to put bar- gains into the hands of men who are watching for windfalls. Persons wishing to purchase ground for the erection of bumes or stores are met with & demand for bigher prices than before the penic, in almost all the desirable Jocalities. This - surprises them, but it is the result of careful cal- culation on the part of owmers. They tea that the business, the manufacturing interests, and the population of Chicago are rapidly increasing. ‘The demand for bouses is a proof of this. The stimulus that building shows is aoother evidonce of it. Thers are no statistics of the growth of population, but there are evidences of it, like those givengbove, The situation of Chicago is very differsnt from those of the other leading cities of the country. It is easg to eee that New York, and the Eastern cities generally, stand- ing in_the mdst of an unemploved populstion, must fall _ behind farther and recover mors glowly than Chicago in the centre of & prosperous and well-remune- rated agricultural population. Thero is not vet enough surnlus profit in the retail trade of Cli- cago and the various employments of labor here to renew the ante-panic briskness of opera- tions in cbeap lots. This accounts for tho griet of tbe suburban trage and that mear tho city limits. The well-founded confidenca of our citi~ zens in the near prosperity of the future ac- ocounts for the disappointment of those who want to pick up bouses and lands for less than they are worth. There is all this time a steady in- ‘vestmentin Chicagoreal estate by capitalists. The shrewdest of them ize the fact that tuis is »_most favorable time to purchase. The President of ono of our leadiog financial innti~ ‘tutions said the otber day, *I have been buy.ng Chicago real estate for twenty vears. I have bandied in that time more than a million dollars worth of property. I have pever in zll that fime seen a better time to buy real estate in this city than now.” SALES OF THE WEEK. J. C. McCord & Co. have purchassd 225 feet on the sontheast corner of Wabash avenue and Thirty-fourth street for §175 a foot. They have begun on thue ground the erection of eleven marble-front three-story houses, to cost from £6.000 to 86.500 each. . Josiah H.

PURCHASE OF AN OHIO QUABRY. o Prof. James Cherry, the geologst, of Chicago, ‘who has developed many valuable coal flelds in this State, has just purchased 3,000 acres of Iand in Scioto County, Obio, 1 the immediato ‘vicinity of BuenaVista, on the Ohio River, and Maeller's exteosive stone quarries. Prof, Cher- ry's purchase contains, throughout its entire ex- tent, a superior deposit of the stone nsed in the ‘walls of the Custom House, Chamber of Com- merce, LaSalle tod Major Blocks, snd other representative buildings of Chicago, and also an extensive and valusble stratum of Brown eandstone which is nn:ufllnmed and shipped to ssw York City for ding purposes. Prof. Cherry made the purchese only after careful ecientific jnvestigation into the qualities of the “jtone as & superior building material, and from theeo tests he has established the fact that the Buena Vista stratum (the Castem-House stono ) when culled with the same care and no greater yaste than in the Lilinois marble quarties and Maine granite quarries, is capable of atanding extaasivochangea of temperature and conditions of expogure withous deterioration in quality or calor.

Kugust closed on a dull market, and Septem- ber opens with po fiir promise ahead. The buoyancy in the loan Lusiness during the early weeks of the past month haa apparently disap- pesred, and at present there is but a small de- mand for money, except in the way of renewals. There is o diminution in the amonat of loanable funds, and not so much eagerness on tho part of losn agents in pushing losns on the market. Good names and good property find no difficulty in procuring money at 8 per cent,—in fact, the rate of interest is unchangeda. There appears to be o lull in building, and beyond the enter- prises already noticed thero are but few in con- templation.

A XEW PLAX FOR LUILDING UP THE BURNI DIS- TRICT. With all the enterprise and pfuck exhibited in the rebuilding of Chicsgo, one wide and unsight- Iy gap remains to be fillod. 1t certainly does not tend to the credit of our city that thd crowds of visitors to the great Exposition, coming bere especting to be entranced with the vaunted beauty of New Chicago, should tind, close to the busiess centre and mnght in front of the Exposition Bailding, an ares of a dozen blocks covered with ruined walls, Teaps of rubpish, and temporary shanties. To our own eitizens, this part of our annaal exhibi- tion may not seem o very uncouth, for we ap- preciato the fact that this territory is set apart for the magnificent stores and wholesale ware- houses yet to be, in the near fature, and that the rapid growth of the city will not juatify the erection of residences on property soon to bs needed for purposes of trade. But is there real- Iy no way of making all this property comely and *‘incomely " while waiting for its great inber- itance ? 1t would seem that if the holders are & insensible to the msthetic side of the question, the annmal depletion of their pockets for taxes wpon high- priced and unremunerstivo property would spur them up to devise some scheme of building npon these lots in such & way a8 would produce an in- come for the time being, and yotinvolve no tear- ing down of comparatively new buildines when the time for transformation arrives. The real- ization tat a much longer time must elapse be- fore zil these blocks will be needed for whole- sale trade than was predicted in 1872, and the present low cost of building, lend an additional importance to the problem at the present time. It is clear that, were the ground now occapied by structares soitable for residences, either in tenements or flats, they would be taken up at once, and at rentals that would pay a fair in- terest on the gronnd value end cost of building. Now, if ablock can be constructed that will apnswer these requirements for a few years, and then be readily converted into stores without be- ing torn down, the preat elemeat of 108, in con- sequence of change of occupsucy, would be elimioated from the problem. The plan bere suggested ia the construction of buildings, set back from the street on the old building line, with side walls on permanent foundations and of the thickness required for firat- class gtructures four or ~five stories in height. The front wall—to be regarded as te mporary—can_be of brick, aod of the style common in_plain residence-blocks ; it may also be thinner than the side walls, if the building i not _carried up to the full height at once. Lot the basement floor bo at tbe usual distancs be- low and the first floor considerably above streot- grade common 10 private resideaces. The side walls would of course go down lower, giving room for s sub-basement, which may or may not be excavated for present purposes. Tho ‘girders for the other floors should be &t such distances apart 18 would give a reaconable heicht of ceiling for oftice-rooms, and not ex- cessive when used for residencos. No change in these floors would then be required whatover the future occupancy of the building might be, and, In most cases, very little in the arrangement of rooms, Op double o8, such buildings conld have a central entrance. an elevator, and suites of rooms in flats, double or single, on each floor ac- cording to the depth bult upon. Windows in the thick side walls need not be objectionable from depth of recess, and wonld matenally lessen the cost of constraction ; they could be bricked up whenever decired. - Let us now xnticipate the time when such a building would bo needed for re- tail or wholesslo busioess. It will be found adapted to either, with very little altera- tion, 8s farssit goes. erirst, the temporary front wall would be taken down, thé mde walis extended to the strect line, and_an_elaborate stone front erected. If a retal block of small shops is wanted, the floors wonld need no chaoge beyond extending them to the new front line. We would then bave twostones of shops, «each conveniently accessible from the street,— mezzanine gtories,—similar _to the re- constructed building on West Madison sireet, at ithe corper of Sangamon, which has proved 80 popular with tenants as weil as an attractive feature of the street. On deep lots, the rear of the buildings could be extended in the same manner. 1f a large retail or wholesale store were re- quired, the basement and drst floors wonld be removed and a main floor put in, just above the sidewalk level, the sub-bssement space giving room for & full basement story below. The #iecond floor would be found at just the right height to give & lofty ceiling for s first class store; i 8 majority of cases, over the ter- nitory in question, the remaining floors would rent to the best advantage just as they wers, Bhould this plan of construction be' general) adopred onthe vacant froatage alang vm..i ichigan avenues aud the intarsecting O T naw the worat blomish on all the South Side would be obliterated, and hundreds ramilies provided with pleasant homes close A efoees cantro, With rents kopt at s low figurc, as they should be, this part of the cicy wonld have the preference with families of moderate inoome ; exorbitant lesses inronghout the city would get' their death blow 2nd anew influx of population be secured, as well a8 better quarters for those already here. Not only this, l%mt the very time would be hast- ened when ali that part of tha city would be de- mandad for business purposes; with tho eacrifice of tearing down apd building up redured fo a minimam, such » domaud would progress much Taster in a thickly populated section than over Yacant and forbidding blocks, Let our weslthy real-estate holders give this matter a fair con- sideration; if found practicable, let them set the idle laborers at work this fall and winter; then will the host of house-bunters on the 1st of Mlay next rise up and call them hx:aéod. e MISCELLANEOUS. . WESTRRN AVENUE IMPROVEMENTE. The Park Commissioners soem to be in earn- est about the improvement of Western ave- nue, between the canal and (Fifty-firth street) Pavilion Parkway. Ordors have been given the Superintendent to plow up the grounds for the boulevard .on the . east side of the present Western avenue, and to propare it for tree-planting this fall. The former owners pleaded for time till the growing crops should ripen, when the work will be com- menced in right good earncst. Arrangements have been made for uvsIo next Wednesday afterncon on.the boulevard, or pear the Brighton House. Tho stand has al- ready been erected on the old race track, and the residonts in the southwestern part of the city will probably share thencefort in the pleasures heretoforo enjoyed on the lake shore ‘and at Lincoln Park. Our readers need scarcely to ba reminded that they can enjoy a fine drive sonth- ward to Pavilion Parkwav, and tnence east to the South Park and home by the Grand or Drex- el boulevard. It will give them an idea of tho important improvements now 1 progress in that part of the city and its vicinity. MANSARD ROOFS. During its soven years of use among us the French form of the Mausard roof has been eith- erso little understood or Bo often chianged that some emall definition of its real purpese and use must bo acoeptable to our renders, professional or otherwise. Our New England carpenters, long bofore Man- sard or Renaissance wero ever heard of here, had arrived at the same result, working from couditiops nearly similar. Anywhere east of Treoton_may be seen gambrifl Toofs 100 to 200 vyears old, and Oliver Wendell Holmes’ rhyming definition of the term is well known. The gam- brill is tho horsc’s knee-font. The better spell- ing is gambrel. fi‘ha gambrel or Maunsard has two technical advantages—it gains the effect of aroof with the room of & full story, and it exerts no thrust upon the walla. It 1s, when rightly conatructed, adome with an angloin the rides, and the con- ditions of stability the same, whilo the timbers or framework ara}lighter and easier placed than those of any trassed roof.f It will be immediately obsersed thata Man- eard placed avove a heavy cornice (aud a too great projection of cornico is an_ospecial fault) loses almost a third of its height, unlesa the spectacor can take a distance from the building of atleast five times its height. It follows, then, that all moldings, windows, etc., at the base of a Mansard will be invisible from the other side of a street 100 feet wide, and the root itsol? appear an extinguisher, not & covering, One method of remedsing this defect1s to place above the cornice & mgh blocking-course, or an attic or half story. o that the Mausard | really begivs at the angle of vision over tho cornice, An example may be seen on Sixth avenue, near Twenty-third street, and an- other on Fourth avenue, near’ Twenty-sev- «goth strect, both apparently by the - same Richitect. A beautiful example of 1its needless introdaction is the new Tribune Building, where the roof is just this extra story too deep, Walk towards the building until two atories only are seen abovo the cornies, and the effect is doubled. Another way is to diminish the projection of the cornice, and that we cannot help thinking is the real solution. If the ned-grec is really destined to supersede all other stvles for gencral pur- poses, there can be no doubt of thir fact. for the essence of the style is its comparatively slight projections. We ‘uniformly pay too little sttention to the top of our Maneards. The deck cornice should be from one-twel{th of the whole roof in height, and the ** coruble.” or garret formed by the rise of deck roof, should be, plainly seen behind it. The charm of the Maneard consists 1 a high, plain sweep of dark slate, against shich ali or- naments and covtours are stronely outlined. ‘The chimueys become invaluable for effect. As to thoso sloping extinguishers ornamented (?) by stiff checker-boards in colored slate and capped by two or throe skinny moldings, they should bo left for those dovoiees of Germaa sameness who imagine that a colored arch sod a yard of oil-cloth will redeem balf an acre of mo- uotony. and that absence of mass is compensat- ed by a presence of filigree.—New fYork Real Estate Iecord. REAL ESTATE IN MASSACHUSETTS. A Boston letter in the Springfield Republican says: Business continues depressed, and will, evidently, remain 60 for months, whatever msy happen. Thero is more alarm on this sccount in somo quarfers than there in any occasion for, and the census returns indi- cats that the number f unoccupied houses in the business centres is LY Do means 80 18 was esti- mated by many. In Lynp, for example, where it was roughly estimated that 1,600 houses were empty, less then 300 are found unoccupied. But the valuations for the year are showing, what has not been seen be- {oro for many years, a decline in the assessed valuo of Teal estate in many cities ur portions of citics—and a decreane, {00, in the stocks of goods and other taxabls persopal property, It has been common, of late yoars, Tor owners of real estate to submit to a higher valua- tion, both of personal and real property, than the actual market price, in arder that they mignt borrow money more readlly om mortgages and pledges of property, This practice hias now, apparently, come toan end, and the general valustion is somowhat af. fected thereby, But nothing can permanently check the increase” of valuationin a Stata that has shown such a capacity 10 gain in population.

Some of the Encourag(ng Fea~ tures of Business at the Banks. Collections Improving---Loaus in Greater Demand---A Lessening Surplus, The Produce Markets Less Active-- 2 Provisions Stronger. Grain Quist and Steady—A Good Shipping Movement for the Week. IFINANCIAL. The general aspect af the loan market was one of moderate activity and cheerful anticipations of the future. The businessof the day was brisk, Bankers generally are enjoying an incressed patromage. This does not show ftself in any particular direction alone, It is & general guickening of all branches of busi- ‘mess, An encoursging feature of the situation is the improverent of collections consequent upon the large additions that have been made to the stock of cur- rency in the country. This goes to the farmers, and, circulating between them and the country merchants, is now finding its way back into the city, It pays msny times its own volume of debts, The price of graln and other breadstufls i& now such that Jgard of Trade operators find no profit in carrving them. Thors is little demand from them therefore for losns, and the banks, Whoso business lies chiefly with the Board of Trade, are increasing ratherthan diminishing their surolus, Tiates of discount st the banks are 8@10 percent to regular customers, Short-time paper made by good outside partfea s In great request, and is readily taken at favorablo rates. Call and short.time loans rangs from 6@8 per cent. On the strest there 1s & small supply of negotiable paper. Rates are 6@18 per cent. * New York oxchange was in more demand, as usual on Satarday, aod sold at 500 discount between banks for £2,000, Tho orders from the country for currency are in- creasing in number and amount. The clearings Saturdsy were $3,953,287.93 ; for the week they were $27,190,414.36, against $23,834,724.16 for the corresponding week of last year. COUNTRY-BANE BALANCES AT NEW YORK. The New York Daily Dulletin has been studying the reports of the Comptroller of the Currency for infor- mation of the extent of thashipmenta of currency from that point in the fall to move the crops. sTaking June, when the deposits of the interior banks are Iargest in New York, and October, when witadrawals are great- est, Wo Lave this comparative table : Bank notes —bue to other banks.— i June, InJune, In Oct. 4,200,000 3,400,000 This 15 the amount held Sept, 12, the day of the outbreak of ; the amount on Dec. 26, 1873, had been reduced to $77,500,000. This shows that the smounts due other banks amountin New York in June to between $35,000,000 and $105,000,000, an average of about $96,060,000,° In 1870, theso balauces fell §12,630,000 between June snd October; id 1871, $5,700,000, aud in 1872, $21,800,000. Considering that the withdrawals continue beyond October into November, for which there are no fig- ures accessible, the Bulletin draws the conclusion that the reduction in country bank balances will amount to ahout §29,000,000 between June and November.

The St. Paul Pionser-Press, in commenting upon the Tecent letter of Mr. Hugh McCulloch on the re- pudistion of State debts, des: the man- mer in which Minnesots came %o dishomor her credit and good namo. The debt re- pudisted waa fncurred to bufld raflroads, in the hope * that the building of the railroads would infuse new life and property into the wholo State and resurrect the values of town lots and wild lands, which conatituted about the only form of property them owned in this Slate,”” Tho Pioneer-Preas proceeds : The people were maddoned with dissppointment wlien they found that their speculation had failed ; that after bonds to the amount of $2,275,000 had been issued, not a mile of road had been 'completed ; that the bridge they had completed at such cost had broke under iis weight and plunged them into the bank- ruptcy they had sought by this means to avold, snd, therefore, with the unressoning caprice which 80 often characterizos the Fopular acton, they assailed the un- fortunate railroad companies us swindlers, and be- came a8 unanimous and as earnost in 1839 'for repu- diating the obligations the State, with their unani- 1mous sanction, had incurred, as thoy bsd been in 1353 for ratifying and sdopting thom, In 1338, & man who opposed the five million losn amendmont was in serious peril of being tarred and foathered by tlio mob, and cortam a4 least to bo the object of universal execration. In 1850, the man who urged that the obligations incurred by fhe adoption of that amendment should be sacredly flfilled, would ‘bave been almost oqually in danger of being tarred and feathered, and quitous aniversally an object of ‘public axecration, In tis blind, mnremoning fienzy of, tnis disup- pointment the Legislature proposed, and the peopls by a Dearly unanimons voto adopted, amendments to tho Constitation which were desigioed ns a practical repudiation of the ‘ Minnosota State railrosd bonds,” the loan amondment being cxpunged from the Constl- tutlon, and the Legislature probiblted from pessing any moasure providing for the payment of the bouds until it had been ratified by the popular vote, Several times measures for the partial payment or sdjustment of tho bonds iave boen submitted to the people, and all of them have boon voted down by overwhslming majorities, For fifteen years Minnesota bas set an example of sudacious immorality, of bald and bald dishonesty, in this repudiation of her most sacred engagements, which makes every bLomest citizen ‘within our borders blush for shame, and which every rascal may well accapt as nis sufficiont justification for GOVERNMENT BONDS, Tnited States Gs of 1.

The resson for the tameness was an expectation of larger supplies and higher freights, the second being rendered pos- sible Ly the Sirst. The autumn movement of grain is now about to awell to ita full volume, snd buyers are naturally snxious to see the extent of the settling down which many of them expect toenmue, It was reported hat the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Rail- road Company have borrosed 700 cars, and the North- western 600 cars, from Eastern lines to easble them to mect the greater demand for freight accommodation for which they look. Other lines will also be tazed to thelr full capacity, or expect to be, to bring the pro- duce of the West to Chicago o its way East. The probability of increased receipts on the sesboard tends to cause weskmess there, aud, if freight ratesare ralsed, there will boa doublo reason for a decline in prices here. Lake carciers have already begnn to de~ ‘mand higher rates, which demand is strengthened by the fact that the recent sctivity in corn shipmont has made frelght-room relatively scarce. An advanco of about Ko per bu s effected on Baturday, anda further rise will doubtless be ineisted upon as soon as it becomes certain that the autnmn grain movement is fairly under wsy. Some of the carriers are sanguine enongh to think they will be able to touch 5c before winter—which figure was generally regarded as the lowest price at which Vessels could be operated pre- vious to last spring. The dry-goods market was unchanged in its leading features. Trade continues to show a steady increase, and, at the low prices now cutrent, the market for all staple productions is firm.

To the Editor of The Chirago Tribune - In your issus of Aug. 29 “ Corn Merchant™ sssertsd that the proposed changes in the rules for fnspecting corn were “ nseless and mischievous, and would unset- tle contracts made for millions of bushels of corn sell- ertheyear.” Whilst I sgroo with some of the views expressed by that writer, I hold that the sooght-for changes, if secured, will renult in great good 1o the guneral gratn trade of Chicago, and prove beaeficial to | Doth producers and consumers.

Then on grades called white corn, and new whito corn, yellow, und pew yellow, high mized, and new high mized, No. J,and new No. 1, No. 2 and new No, 3, etc., etc, The rules say, “ No,1 corn thall be sound, dry, plump, and well cleaned.” Tho Tequiremeats for new No. 1 are the saws as for No. 1. The .rules read, “No.2 corn shall bo dry, Teasonabiy clean, but not plump enough for No. 1, and the requirements for new No, 2 are precisely the same. In fact, the rules provide and by the sdministration aro construed as o require thst the condition snd quality of the new grades be the same in all respecta 10 those not called new, s distinction being made, how- ever, 58 o thetimeor yearof the grain's th, What the neod of such » distinction 7 'If corn is good enough for No. 1, why not call {tNo. 17 It good enough for No, 3, why not 8o classify it, without ref~ erence to the time and place of i's growth 7 ‘The absurdity of the present Tule is apparent from the fact that the Committes of Appeals have been callod upon to decido upon.the age of corn, when thera was no question or doubt as to ita value, condition, or Keeping qualities, . _Itmay aleo be mentioned ihat the present rules pro- vide for agrade telow No.2, baviug two denomina tions, viz., refected and new rejected.

PROVISIONS. HOG PRODUCTS—Wers in fair demand, with s firmer tone, espectally n the specalative articles, part- Iy becauss the receipta of hoga were very light, though that market as earler. Prices were strengthened by the report of liberal shipments during the past week, especially of lard and meats, while tho remission in summer cutting throws the demand back upan winter product, cansing a rather rapid decresse of stocks in store. It 15 generally expected - that the etatement of ten days’ hence will show com- paratively light stocks to be drawn upon befors the supply of next winter is available. It fs thought that very little cutting will be dope during this month, partly because the farmers‘will keep back the hogs to fatten them un chesp corn, aad partly becauss the paciers want to hold off in the hope of forcing s de- cline to what thoy think safo figures at which to open the packing season.

The market was sustained, how- ever, by the fact that the proportion of No.2 in the current receipts was very maall, there being only 43 cars of Noa. 1 and 2 epring, out of s total of 252, tae proportion being 38 1 in 6, It was also figured up that at the stock-taking in the evening there wonld be only from 175,000 to 100,000 bu of No. 2 in ators here, which is o picsyunish quantity to fill the rather large line of Beptember shorts yet ont. This cused a rather brisk demand for cash wheat, a part-of Which waa wanted for shipment, while deliveries for this month were also in good request, especially where direct” settlements could be made. There was, Bowever, a decided disposition on the part of these Duyers to sell:for October, in anticipation of 3 decline then under larger Teceipta The rains in Minnesota have o doubi done immense fnju- 5 grain, » largo part of which was caught in {he shock, and the percentage of the better grades will probably be much less on this cop than usual.
