BALTMORE'S CITY BALL, AN ARCHITECTURAL ORNAMENT. '@The Mayor's Luxurious Apartments— The Council Chambers— The Public Recoption Rooms, Baltimore's Public Building.

Possession was not obtained until four ars after, and nothing further was ne until 1860. At that time a plan awas adopted and bids received, but all were rejected on account.of the excess @ver the estimate. The war put an end £0 negotiations for the time, but as soon u®s it was over efforts for obtaining a #ew city building were renewed. The ms of the structure pre= ®ented by George A.

It rests upon a marble base, but the top is constructed entirely of iron. [t forms an oval-shaped dome eral could be located. But Baltimore requires more space than most other cities by reason of its increased busi- ness resulting from the harbor and from latter is run by electricity and illumi- nated at night. The roof of the tower upbolds a covered balcony or ‘“‘lantern,” from which a magnificent view of the city may be had. Wathin this is hung the large bell of the clock; also used for alarm in case of fire. The top of the centre portion of the building is ninety- five feet above thestreet. [ucluding the tower; it reaches a height of 227 feet. The whole building is fire-proof. The corridors in the interior are wide and welllighted.{They are tiled in black and almost finished, When the city hall was located, its position was about the centre of the city, but since that time the business centre has moved westward toward the. hills. It is situaved upon rather low ground which detracts from its appearance. The architect himself, in one of his reports, says: ‘“While thus advantageously situated as regards its usefulness and purpose, it must be con- fessed that its architectural effect would have been immensely enhanced had it had the advantage of more elevation.” rooms are of yellow pine, which is covered either by carpets or- oil-cloth, Altogether, there are 102 rooms in the building.

The rotunda in the cenire wing is directly beneath the dome. It is illuminated by a light- shaft which is covered by a stained glass top, showing the city’s seal and four figures emblematic of commerce, agriculture, manufacture and the ar The lateral wings correspond with each other in their divisions. Each is lighted by an open court, also affording ventilation. The council chambers are situated in the southern part of the second story, and are each about forty feet square and thirty-five in height. They are elegantly furnished, draped with heavy curtains, and adorned by paintings and busts of the former Washingtoniana. New York World.

An instance is rclated where the entire business of an exchange was interrupted until the ground was re- woved from the dynamo circuit.
