From Our Own Correspondent. MmwAUKEE, July 27.—Reports of the sun- gtruck condition of the wheat crop througzbout Jargze portions of the Northwest, though doubt- less somewhat exagrerated, have created a de- cidedly gloomy fecling in ali business circles. The prospects of enormous crops in wheata few weeks ago have been so0 decided a faiture that the fecling of depression has been increased bevond what it would bave been had appear- ances not becn-so treacherous and flattering. It is probable that the statements as to the total loss of the crop in various regions- are greatly enlarged over the facts. But that the crop will De greatly less than was autigivated, and that the quality wili be low, fs generally admitted. Probably -the uneasy and gloomy state of feeeling in regard o ceneral business is rendered ercater than there is camse for by the discouraging statements which facts will’ not warrant. The wheat blight is very extensive; but the wheat screage is immense, and the quaptity of grain will be enormous. The quality=will suffer by comparison with the brilliant specimens of last year’s vietd which first found their way to mar- et, and which did not surpass the actuai crop when marketed. A partial revival from the present depressed condition of the minds. of Duriness men may be expected, and_the fearful dullness which is aporebended will not prob- ably be realized. Butthat theimmediate future 15 not brizht with promise is true. A NEW CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. The 3Milwaukee Chamber of Commerce, which bas been the scene of such tempestuous excite- ‘ment for the past few days, 1s an ill-lighted, ill- ventilated upper room fna three-story brick building on the corner of Michigan strect and Broadway. The lot was bought in 1847 by A. L. Kane for $1,800. Tne oid Tremont House was Jocated on it at that time. In 1853 or 1854, & fashionahle place for operas, concerts, and parties was wanted, and Alexander Mitchell, James 8. brown, and Thomas L. Ogden united in purchasing this site, giving Kane $,000 for it, and buildiog uponit the "A.Ibln;' Block,” in which was located “ Albany HalL" After s ferw years this block burned down, and the same proprietors, Mitchell, Brown,fand Ozden, erected the present Chamber of Commerce Buildine. Sinee it was built it bas been most productive property, being occupied by insurance offices, commission _firms, the Western Union Telegraph Company, and other of the most profitable classes of tenants. The erection of Mitchell’s magnificent building adjoining caused 8 hegira from the Chamber of Commerce building, which has lost o foll_one-half of its best-paying occupants. Now tbe old talk of -erecting a new buildine is revived; but whether anything will come of it is doubtful. The Chamber has au accumulated fand of 535,000, and everybody who owns tract of ground within four blocks of Spring-street bridge is casting longing eyes on uhiat pile of money. That amount of cash would just about buy a good site, and there arc forty mouths watering for it. If Mr. Mitchell could vrocure aclear title to the other two-thirds of the pres- ent site from the James 8. Brown' estate and from Mr. Ozden, he would put up a building similar to that which he erected beside it last year; but tha: does not appear at present to be ‘Dracticable. owing to prices asked by other own- ers. Mr. Elliot owns the tract of grouna direct- Iy cast, on Michiran street, between Broadway ana Milwaukee streets, which he wounld sell to the Chamber. Jobn Plankiuton owns the piece of ground on West. Water street, just south of Suring strect,{now in use for s coal-yard, and he has for years been using his great influence to sccure the Jocation of thenew Exchange baild- ing there. In the vigorous: conflict of rival in- terests, none of them is likely to prove suc- cessfut. NEW BUILDINGS. There is less building generally in the city than last year. In 1577 an immense number of small honses, costing, including the sité, $5,000 and under, were built. This produced a decline inrents, and less’ money is being invested in that direction. The new four-story block which Mr. Broad- nead is building on East Water street, opposite the Kirby House, has been rented for a term of years for $3,000 a year. The fivestory block, sixty feet front, on East Water street, adjoining Ludington’s corner, has been leased for five years, at §5,000 ayear. The ground for this building, near the imincdiate business centre, cost $40,000. The building will cost $45,000 more. This building is being erected by the Philip Best Brewing Co., and rossip says_that the property, when com- picted. will be deeded juintly to “the wives of Capt. Pabst and Emil_Schaudien, the co-heir- esses of the late Philip Best. 1he buildine occupied by Liedesdorf & Co. as a tobaceo factory, burned out a few weeks since, is being rebuilt, the old walls being used as far as possible. C. H. Ray, the President of the Chamber of Commerce, 1s building a residence on Prospect, ‘svenue; walls of Wauwatoea limestone, trim- mings of Ohio sand-stone; to cost §40,000. Mr. Ray exercised ancommon ood judgment in St. ‘Paul stock last year. J. M. Lawrence is_ercctinza residence on ls,l;gs&&t avenue; walls of pressed brick; cost, 3 : F. F. Adams’ new residence, corner of Frauk- 1in and Knopp streets, Miiwaukee cream press- €d brick, will cost $20,000. C. K. iewis. a wealthy business man of Beaver Dam. is about toremove to Milwaukee, and s ‘building a home on Grand avenue, to cost 15,000 David Ferruson’s spacious new residence, on the corner of Division and Milwaukee streets, is approaching completion, and will cost $30,000. R. G. Frackelton is bulidinz a residence, cor- ner of Cassand Ogden streets, of brick, Gothic arclitecture, roomy and comfortable, and very tasty, to cost $12,000. THE CATHOLIC HTERARCHY. There is authority in Catholic circles for a statement that important changes will soon be made in this Archdiocese of the Catholic Church. The age of Archbiskop Heuni, and the feeble state of bis health, require that he should have the assistance of a Coadjutor, who, it is sald, will be Bishop Heiss, of LaCrosse. The changes which will follow this arrangement. arc foreshadowed as follows: . The Rev. Dr. Wapelborst, the chief of the aéministratior of St. Francis Seminary (near his city), will be made Bishop of LaCrosse, to succeed Bishop Helss. The Ker. Augustus Robling will resume his former position on the Faculty of St. Francis Seminary. Also the Rev. Frederick Katzer will be reinstated in the Seminary. The Rev. A, Zeininger will resume the Professorship of Mathematics, and the Rev. H. Reivhard will 2gain be made Procurator in that Institution. The Rev. J.-A. Birkhauser will assume the Chaplaincy of the convent at Racine. . Thete changes, wherever they have been men- tioned, it is said, give great satisfaction to Cath- olies. The labors of Bishop Heiss will especially be ggmpmbl_& as hie is highly respected and belovéd as a prelate throughout the State. He lins been In" active "sprvice at, LaCrosse for a number of years, and he fs noted for bis eccle- eiastical learning. the 'dignity and s.avity of bis manners, bis great piety, and s exceutive a:lllts kx0 gfll‘l‘x:rzh Tat.

The Wisconsin Academy of Art, Science, and Lerters bas held its annual meeting at the Hall of Milwaukee College, fo this_city, during the present week. ‘The chair was oceupied. by Dr. P. R. Hoy, the distinguished scientist, of Racine, and the proceedings were of interest through- out.- At the first session, on Taesday evenine, the address of welcome was, on account of the - T {1iness of Mayor Black, delivered to the mem- ) bers of the Academy by Gen. H. C. Hobart, President of the City Council, himself a close student in literature and science. With a re- sponse by Dr. Hoy, the regular proceedings of the Socicty began. Mcetings were held on Wednesday and Thursday, at Which a great variety of interesting and valusble papers were read, followed by livelv discussions on the topics to which they rela Amone the papers were the following: “The Microscope as a Benefit to Science.” by Dr. J. N. DeHart, of the Wisconsin Hospital for the [nsane; *Popular Epics of the Middle Ases,” by Prof. J.'J. Ei- mendorf, of Racine College; * The Accounta- bility of Pablic' Officials,” by -Judge W. C. Al- Jen, of Racine: ¢ Drinking - Water,” by Dr. J. G. Meacham, of Racine; *Savings Banks and the Industrial Situation,” by the Rev. Charles Caverno, of Lombard, 1l ; *‘ Mental Hospital- fty,” by Miss Ella Giles, of Madison; *Scien- tific Housekeeping,” by Mrs. A. W. Bate, of Milwaukee; “The Nature and Functions of Credit,” by Prof. A. L. Chapin, President of Beloit College; *The Mound-Builders,” oy the Rev. G. E. Gordon, of Milwankee. 3 The institution was-formed in 1870, and’ this has been its most successful wnceting. Reports of the aunual sessions, including the papers delivercd, have been published, and a library and collections have been commenced. At the session of 1577, Lthe constitution was so amended as to admit female members, and the following ladies were elected to membership at the pres- ent meeting: Mrs. Matilda F. Anneke, Milwankee. Mrs, Julia Fora, M. D., Milwauks Mrs. N. H. Adsit, Milwaukee. Mra. R. C. Spencer, Milwauxee. Mrs. Lanra J. Wolcott, Milwaukee, Mrs. Edward P. Allis, Milwankee. Mre. Laora Merritt. Milwaukee. Mra.

A banquet was had at the Plankinton House on Wednesduy eveniug, with sentiments and responses appropriate 1o the oceasion, and on Thursay a delightful drive about the city was bad as a substitute for the afternoon session. EARLY STEAMBOATING. The millions of dollars, including cash and Iands, spent on the effort to make the Fox and Wisconsin Rivers navigable have not yet had that result, and. the policy of sinking treasure in those beds of shifting sands is illustrated by a reminisceace of Mr. Edward Barber's efforts to open the Milwaukee & Prairie du Chien Rail- road to Mississippl River travel in May, 1857, The railrozd had been comvleted to Prairie du Chien, but the immense soow-fall of the pre- ceding winter had raised the rivers to prodigious hichts. The Mississippi was higber than ever before known, except in 1626, and the Visconsin River had overflowed its banks, snd risen to the tops of the low trees covering the brond bottom between the bluffs. OI course the new railroad track was covered out of sight, and in many places was entirely washed awav. While affairs_ were in this condition, the Itasca, the Milwaukee, and Ocean’ Wave had arrived at Prairie do Chien from St Paul, loaded with passengers, all hastening to take' the railroad to Milwaukee on the way Eastward. - Everybody knows what a trouble- some mob a few hundred passcogers become when they are embargoed a few days in an out- of-the-way place, without sufficient sccommoda- tions for their comfort, and all in a hurry o zo forward. Mr. Barber had been appointed Sta- tion Agent of the new road at Prairie du Chien, and his resources were calied iuto requisition to open connection with the raiiroad when it was above water, some_thirty miles away, up the Wisconsin River Valles. Capt. Scott, of the Ocean Wave, agreed to tike that boat up the Wisconsin to where the track could be found; a pilot who knew the river was persuaded for $50 to leave a game of voker at a half-breed sa- loon and take the wheel, and the passengers were put aboard. The current was anywnere over a bottom from one to three miles io width. A raft or two coming down ‘from the pinery ware knocked to pieces, ana the first night out three men were picied from.a tree-top, in which they had been lodged from a broken crib of one of the rafts, the balance. of the raft’s crew baving been lost. A part of the way u that portion of the etream on which the ‘boat was to fun, E. H. Broadhead, the President of the Railroad Company, hailed the Occan Wave from a bluff overlooking the stream, and was equally aston- ished and pleased at the euergy displayed in the attempt to Zet the passengers to the track where the trains.were left. - They worked their way up-stream till they struck the bridee at !\hl.seodn_}lhc top rails of which were justabove water. There the disastrous news wss met that a washour had occarred also at Blue River, be- yond which it would be impossible to convey the passengers, £0 necessity compelied a return to Prairie du Chien, where the mouey which the voyagers had paid for tickets was refunded, and they sought otherromtes to the eustward. That was the first and last attempt to navigate the ‘Wisconsin River with a large side-wheel steam- er. ‘Then the experiment was made as a matter - of necessity, and falled, and it is not probable that the Government has money enough to so improve the channel as to make ;.“1':‘!‘: Tuture effort ot the kind any more success- RAILROAD EXTENSIO! The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Company are crowding forward their line across Northern Jowa towards the Missouri River. The track is now laid thirty miles be- yond Algons, and will reach Dakota before cold weather. The St. Taul Company is also extending the track westward from Glencoe, in Minnesots, on the Hastings & Dakota line, and they are perfecting their connections in Towa with the Western Union Railroad. The narrow-zauge road from Mayville, on the Northern Division of the St. Paul Road, to F¥ond du Lac, is also quite likely to fall into the St. Paul Compauy’s hands. It is singular that so much time passed without a direct road between Milwaukee and Fond du Lac being opened, and that while Milwaukee railroads were reaching to [owa and Minnesota nc band was laid on this thriving city at our doors. The Air-Line Road, built a few years ago by the Chicazo & Northwestern Company, gave ¥ond dn Lac a direct road to Milwauke, and now they are likely to have another. Speaking of Milwaukee railrond enterprises, it is but justice to say that Mr. E. B. Phiilips, who_has returned to Chicago fr a permancnt residence, has done a magnificent work in this State. He was connected with the construction of the Wisconsin Central Railroad from the start till its completion. to Ashiand on Lake Superior, and, with the couragcous men who carried through this immense under- taking, he deserves all praise. le finaily severed his connection with the Comvany last Tuesday and left this city, resuming his former residence in Chicazo. He significd to his friends tbat he should take along rest, and should probably indulgre in travel before seltling down again to business. There is nothing new relative to the talk about buildinz the Lodi Branch. In fact, the parties who had the negotiations with the XNortbwestern Company in hand have been so desperately busy in the affairs on *Change that railrod extensions have probably ozcupicd the Teast possible sbare of thieir minds.

Springfleld (Mass.) Republican. The Springficld Gas Company has bought the \ right for this city to use the Holly system of running steam pipes through the streets to far- _msh beat and power for adjolning buildings, | and the City Government will be asked to per- mit the construction of an experimental line this winter trom the Company’s workson Water street through Elm to Main strcec. This short line will reach 8. number of dwellings, stores, and offices, a larze school-house, the county Court-House, and the First Church and chapel, in which, with the exception, perhaps, of the charel, it 18 hoped that a_trial of the system may be mude, the most distant point from the works being the Chicopee Bank. It Is no new thing, of course, to heat more than one baild- ing by steam from a single furnace, this already DLeing done in this city in the armory buildings and in the Boston and Albany ouilding and depot. “Fhe Holly system, which 15 owned at Lock- port, N. Y., and is in most_successful operation in that city, includes numerous improyemuts in the protection of the pipes laid in the streets, the arrangements of counections, valves, traps, ete. In the works at Lockport, steam 18 con- ducted two miles, and Mr. Holly claims that a distance of five miles can_be reached. The pressure on the pipes in the strects is about fifty pounds, and in the houses ten pounds, nllimugh only one or two pounds is neeaed for heating. The Lockport company began on the basis of charging for the heat about as much as - had been betore paid for fuel, but introduced meters as_soon as the enterprise was fairly established, and a similar course will doubtless be pursued in this city. The amount that can be saved to consumers by this svstem is evi- dently large, since there'is inevitably 2 waste of fuel in connection with every fire and a great deal of dust and dirt that are inju- rious to furniture and bealth. Some of the Lockport householders told visitors from this city that they hardly considered it necessary to clean houses in the spring, while their hoases had been heated throughout so thoroughly that they scarcely knew.of the changes of tempera- tare outdoors. The steam is also used for cooking, and is equal to alnost any culinary operation except {rying avd broiling. —————— THAT * NEW.-REMEDY.” To the Editor of The Tribune. Cmicaco, July 27.—I desire to make a few observations on a communication which ap- peared under the above caption in a recent num- ber of THE TRIBUNE. I did not, af the time it appeared, and should not now, regard that com- munication as worthy of any notice, had not my opinion been asked repeatedly.ny sick and suf- ering people, and were iI-not convinced that mischief has been done by.its publication. Without entering into the theoretical specula- tions of tbe writer, I will' come at once to the preseription berccommends asa “ new remedy for consumption: S ‘Half a pound of beefsteak; chopped fine, One drachm of charcoal. . Four ounces sugal Four ounces whisky. One pint boiling water. , . Mix together; allow to stand over night in a cool place, and take ome or two teaspoonfals three times o day. > This is the remedy. The water, sugar, and meat might as well have. been omitted, since they are common articles of diet which every patient uses freely athis meals. The whisky is not mew, and is no remedy for consumption. It neither cures the discase after it is set up, nor prevents it from occurring, as is shown by the fact that drinking people are as liableas others to the disease. All that remains is the charcoal. This has long been used in certain dyspeptic conditions of the stomack as an ab- sorbent. Its dose. is from one to four drachms two or three times a_ day. It hasno known curative power. It is insoluble, ana therefore can produce mno direct effect on the bluod or ues of the body. As an absorbent it takes up mases and aclds _in the stomach, and in that way is often beneficial in dyspepsia. Bu: to do anv good it must be taken in teaspoonful doses. So much_for the components of this so-called dr. When mixed topether they makea dirty, unsavery mess, which undergocs decom- position inside of 2 week and produces a stench worse than Bridgeoort. He says the patient may take oneor two tea- spoontuls, but that it Is best to begin with small doscs, and only Increase gradually. What does this mean? IS it because the stufl is so stronz that it mizht injure the patient? The whole makes abous thirty ounces. In each ounce there are eight teaspoontuls. This gives 240 doses. At three teaspoontuls a day it would take a patient eighty davs—nearly three months—to consume half 2 pond of beef, a teaspoonful of charcoal, Tour ounces of sugar, four - ounces of whisky, and & pint of water. In dose he would get about thirty drops of water, six grains of beef, four drops of whisky, four grains of xiug:xr, and one-quarter of a grain of char- coal. “T'o apply the name remedy " to such a com- ound, taken in such doses, or to prentend thut t will cure, or cven ameliorate to aoy seosible degree, the symptoms of such a_disease as con- sumption is an absurditv.
