The company asceind- ing on one side of the platform, passed before the Japanese, pausing @ few moments for hurried presentations to the Ambassadors and then descend. ing on she other side. Nearly all tn the room availed themselves of this arrangement to ob- tain a good view of the distinguished guests of the nation. About ten o’clock . the re- freshment department was thrown open ana thither proceeded the Japanese, the principal ones escorted by the Vice President, Speaker Blaine and the mem- bers of the Cabinet. The other part of the company then fell __into _ iine on their way to the same place of attention, It was midnight before that dense crowd succeeded in reaching the room, parties of about one hundred being admitted atatime, The entertainment was on teerotal principles, there being nothing stronger to drink than water.

THE PHILADELPHIA CONPLAGRATION. Immense Amount of Damage to Jayne's “Granite Block’*—Grand Scene Yesterday Morning— Estimated Losses Amounting to Nearly Half a Million on Property Alone. PHILADELPHIA, March 5, 1872. The fire 19 still smouldering on the eighth story of the Chestnut street tront of Jayne's building, but 1s under the contro of the firemen, and the lower floors are so drenchea with water and sheeted with toe thay further damage is improbable, The granite front on Chestnut street ts not wholly damaged. On. Centre street the front wails of two upper stories fell into the roadway, A large number of telegrapn wires belonging to the Frankiln line were broken down and enveloped with ice to the dimensions of cables, They appear as they hang like supports to a chain bridge, All the adjacent buildings are sheeted with tce, and present a scene that suould be preserved by the ald of photography. The damage to the stocks of the occupants of the main buliting 1s very serious, but those occupying une wing on Chestnut street have sustained incon- siderable losses, their goods being mainly protected through the activity of the insurance patrol in cove ering them with tarpaulins. There are several rumors in circulation of firemen buried by the falling of the Carter street front, bub they cannot be traced to reliable sources, ‘rhe losses aud insurance by the tire are reported as follows:— Shanuon & Son, teas, stock valued at $49,000, and damaged to the amount of $20,0uv; fully insured in the Liverpool and London, and Globe, Mutuat and Royal. A. A. Butler, foods, insured for $60,000, including $10,v00 In the Home of New York and $5,000 in the Aitna of Hartford. Barton P. Newyan, tnsured for $3,500 tn the National of Boston. ne & Son had an in- surance of $112,000, of which $10,000 was in the Home of New York, $75,000 in the Citizen’ of New York, $6,000 each in the Aitna, Phooulx and Mart. ford of Hartford, the tuternational Phanix of New York, and $2,500 each in the Columbia of New York, National of Bangor, Springfield and Peony’s of Massachusetts and tne American of Jersey City. Wernway had @ stock of $100,000, and had policies or $5,000 each in the Commercial oft Albany and Connecticut of Hartford, and $2,500 in the Fire- men’s of New York. ‘The estimated loss by the fire to Jayne & Son on the building is $125,0v0, and is insured for $60,000; on the stock, $80,000, fully insured. Wher. the last despatches dated last night were forwarded 1t was supposed that Jayne’s building would be totaliy destroyed, The edmirable manner in whichthe Fire Department performed its duty on this extraordinary occasion, in the face of the most terrible snow storm known Jor years, and with tne thermometer below zero, saved the noble pile from total destruction, Hut it will be some time before business will be resumed on its site. Dr. Jayne erected tue buildidg in 1849 and took posses- SiON 1n 1851. Its Cost Was $200,000; its value yester- day before the fre was $500,000. ‘The total loss to bulidings and stock is $478,000; total insurance, $$30,500, GOVERNOR WARMOTH OUTWITTED.

Those who have been saying that ‘‘oid” Jack Frost must have met with some extraordinary mts- hap, rheumatic or otherwise, were very much dis- appointed yesterday. Indeed, on Monday evening the old man “got himself together” in fine style, and, though not quite in the very best of humor, showed most unmistakably that he was not yet entirely thawed out of existence, Just as the people cry out bitterly for the days of yore, by whieh, of course, they mean the days of their own merry youthful time, and for THR TREMENDOUS SNOW STORMS which brought them the glorious sleigh ride, 80 People yearn at times for the bracing, frosty air of old-time winters, the ice in the rivers, the skating on the pondsand'the red and blue noses on thelr faces, It 1s not fair to separate the dismal side of life from the pleasant side, or to talk ail the time about the pleasures of the rich and ignore altogether the tribulations of the poor. This winter, however, has been sufticient!y mila not to be very hard upon the weary unfortunates whose wholesome existence: is an uncertainty. Correspondingly growling and un- happy have we had THOUSANDS OF THOUGHTLESS FASITIONABLES, who have been sighing for a jolly winter—snow for sleighing, ice for skating, and no puzaling about the garments in which they would parade them- selves, However, though the snow has nol been quite sat- isfactory this winter, and lovers of skating had abandoned all hopes of another cold snap, yet here we have now, in Jack Frost’s own good time, and just when it picased him, A REAL, REGULAR AND UNDOUBTED BITB, characterized by all the venom, ferocity and insid- tousness which all secret workers, in the flesiy or in fable, so well know how to exercise. There are many persons, of cougse, who say they rejoice in this terrible cold we have had for the last two days, especially yesterday, and feel more buey- nt and lively under its influence. Selfish men! Why not think of all the seeds of death sown by every gust of the March wind that whistles down to the poor weakly lungs of the million? why not be generous enough to think of all.the STINGS OF SICKNESS AND MISERY entailed ny the cold, wearing, tearing biasts of frozen air that stick into the poor frail case wm which man’s soul dwells? Fortunately, the dark side of the picture does not this year present so many, though 1t does several, dismal features as in years past that ali remember, nor 1s there a likelinood of there being now much severity in store tor us, so that the cold snap of yes- terday loses much of its terror when we remember that this is early spring aud that the summer is coming, the worst of the Winter huving passed over. jut Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

In the early morning, yesterday, as they do on all such occasions, the thousands hurrying down town, in cars or across the river iu the rerries, to business, muilied themselves up with that inconsolavie shudder of body and disgusting opposition of mind which can never be leit except on a very cold morning, with the frost stinging all over; the by ladies, on their way vo work were, as is usual ‘on all cold days, divested of every sprightly charm, and looked verv much as if they were very cold in- deed, Puftlug and blowing, the crowds came along, utterly obtivious of all inundane affairs, except frost; city railroad cars crammed with dejected- looking, pondering, prayerful-looking men, lookin as if In meditation upoxu solemn truths; ferries flile with people, lookmg as il in @ state of couva- winds from New Jersey northeastward, Supplemeatary Weather Report.

In the early forenoon the North River was periectly biockaded, but jater in the day the tide hetped to decrease the dimculties, Atone time only a single boat was able to run along the entire river, On the East Kiver very little trouble wad experienced until the afternoon, but about two e’clock the flood tide had brought down masses of ice, which blockaded tne river at Catharine ferry, rendering it almost im- ossibic Jor Lue boats to plough their way across, Eater in the evening the ice had moved down toward Fulton ferry, but, jortunately, litue or no imconvenience was here felt by passengers, the boats running reguarly, Complaints were made frequently yesterday that, notwithstending the In- tense cold, the Hamilton ferries, ut least one of them, was not heated.
