The terror of tho ocean of Hum wcra enhanc ed by the heart rending cries of the fugitive ' womoii and children.' Thi Die raged till noon of tho next day, w hen it was cxtln- ' 'uiJii.d bv a fall of rain. TLa hoiel of ' tho Dutch was on fire I'ko minute Mfter , thoHJlit. Thopiducc of lweiitynvrn mince were destroyed, 'I'lie weight of - fugitive broke down th famous Xipon las, or bridge of Japan, (across a river which r 'tiiii Lhrouuli Juddo. auJ from which the - n ' disiitiice are reckoned throughout the Em i. ;) o Omt lesido those burned to death, tnany were drowned, including a daughter " of the IVifico of Arya. Twelve hundred live wore said to have boon lost. Qn thi oceaaioii the' Dutch visitors were greatly aided by a wealthy Jnpanraa merchant, who nt forty men to aid him in removing. ' U 1m hi alore and a wurehouso contain ing a hundred pound of spun ilk. Yet ' the day after the fire, with a spirit not to be outdone even here in N. York, he wa engaged In building his premise. Fischer visited Judilo in 1822. The on trance into it, notwithstanding tho absence of carriage reminded Lini, from the noise and the throng of people of the commercial port of London, The shops had no signs a in Europe, and tho goods were exhibited ' from the. door and windows under tho ... charge of boys, who rivalled each olhrr in calling, by loiid eric tho ntlcniion of cus tomer. Longbcfure entering the suburb Siucuawir, the Dutch visitor found them selves in the midst of a vast crowd, moving : along broad atrcots, paved tit the aide and ',. lined with houses regularly built, and many of great air.o. From tho suburb to the vi "' cinity of the Imperial Paluce, It was two hours' walk ; and a ibo l'aluco wa said to occupy a space of half a mile in diameter , in the middle of the city, Fischer estinuited t ho distance across the whole city at five or eix hours' walk at un ordinary stop; which nt tho most moderate calculation would be , twelve or fifteen mites, It i oviilent from these accounts, whicl go to confirm the other and more particular ones of Thuuhcrg and Kronipfer of whom the first visited Jeddo 1779 and the latter in 1000, and who both, especially tho latter have furnished many highly curious details of their viaiu tlmt Jeddo is a very popu lous city, mid that such a catastrophe ns a violent earthquake would be likely to be attended with a great destructiuu of prop erty nnd of life. Indeed, if we suppose tho sea to have rushed up tho bay of JedJo, as it did into the harbor of Simoda during the pievious eai tlitiko, ao as to have partially overflowed the city, the destruc lion ufevou thirty thousand lives would uot be improbable. Y. '. Tribune, A IkiioiNK I.MiKKU. Here is a story of ' One of the American women of the Keo- lution that . is worth telling. Her name 1 should be placed on the page of hintory, by the sido of llio Maid of arogan. Col. John McDonald, of Uos county, Ohio, at a recent public dimier, related tho following touching incident : In 178, Wheeling was besieged by a lafge nrmy of British and Indians. So . ' suddenly was tho attack made, that 110 time " was allbroVI for preparation. Tho fort at " , the lime of the assault, was commanded by t!ol. Silas Z.ine ; nnd Col. Lbtnezer Znii, ' ,, the sfliiior ollicer was in a block house some 60 or 100 yards outside the wall. The en .' iuy maJo teeral desperate assaults to break into the fort, but on every onv t were driven back. The ammunition for thedefeuoe of tho foil was deposited in the block house, and the attack was ninde so suddenly that there was no lime to remove it. 1 On the afternoon of the second day of .the siege, the powdt-r in the fort was ueaily thauhtcd, and no alternative remained, but thai somebody must pa through the ene ., ,, ui)' firo tu lint block-hcute for powder. ' When Silas Zsne made the proposition to the men to wo if ony one would uuJerlake the hannlouj cntrrprivr, at trt all were silent. After luokiu at e.-uh oiher f r some time, a youth atrpd forward, and said he wou!J run for the lewder. Imme diately lialf a io.n otV,-rd ihtir eervicet ' 1 I tho djn-rerti.ii f n!rrpi!e. While lixy were disputing whosliouldgo, Lllizabcth, sivirr of the Zuncs, came fur. Vard and d e.ur-.l she w u!J jo Tor thi powder. ' Her brother thought she would flinch from the e nterprisebut he wa mis taken. Khe had the Intrepidity lo dare, and tho fortitude to boar her up in the Lo roio risk of h.r life. Ifef brother tried to di.unde her from the attempt, by saying a man would be more (Wl.and consequently would run lean rikof leingl'' If"' ' Ml,, r-nlled ther had not a man I" Pre f.omlhedufmiceofthe fort, aud if she .hoiild fall the would scarcely he missed. She tVn divehted hcrsclfcf such clothing a wouhf impodo her sjx-cd, nnd ran till sho arrived at tb door of the block house, where her brother Col. Zane hastened to rccoiva hi Intrepid sister. The Indians when thty law her bound forth, did not fire a gun, but called out aloud, Vjihi w, aqua, .rfjuaw.' . When she told her brother the errand cu which sho camo, ho took a table cloth and poured into it a keg of powder. She then sallied back to the fort, witu nil lis liiii'nniv fit lioi.e. The moment the wa ouuido of the blotk-hauso, the enemy poured a leaden torm at her, but the ball went whistling by without doing her any injury. . yThe lute Maj. Thomas Harrison who diod in I'.oston on Monday, the 29th of Jununry, saya the Boston Transcriyl, was one of tho bravest of tho officers of the second war with Great Britain. In the chargo at Chippewa, whore ho lost his leg, outof his full company of 00 men, only fif teen were left standing after the shock, liar rinon refused lo be carried to the rear, but urged his men, who loved him as a fulher, 10 go forward and do their duty. Taking out hi hnndkorchif f he tied it round his wounded limb, and making a tourniquet by tho help of his word-grip stuunched the hemorrnge from tho flow of the severed ar lory. He never lost his sense for a mo mailt. Gen. Scott riding aoros tho field saw him in this condition. "Harrison," said ho, with great feeling, "I am sorry to sco you in thi plight, and I would tay by you if my duty did not call mo elsewhere." The next day Captain H., (ho was after, ward bevut Major for his gallantry,) sub mitted to amputution with the utmost for litudn. ' ' 'Ox this Kock I will Build my Church.' Tho following strange piece of intelli gence is translated from tho Independence Vilye, and was lately communicated jo that paper by a correspondent writing uu der dato of Koine, Fob. It) I "A votive church is about being erected in the A ustrian empire The architect has already gone to Rome to study tho stylo and pioporliuns of tho now cathedral., The first btono will be laid by the Hmpcror, and scaled with a goldeu trowel. This stone is said to bo the identical one on which Pe ter knelt when ho received the blessing of Jesus Christ nnd heard the word?, 'Upon this rock will I build my church.' "This wonderful stono is to bo procured in tho following manner; The Austrian government is about building at Jerusalem a large hotel for tho accommodation of pil grims. Endlicher, the architect who ia cn. trusted with tho work, left Vienna for Jeru- salt-in on the 5lh of Feb. l'rcvious to his depaituio, ho was ordered by tho archduke. who is well acquainted with Syria, in which ha lately traveled, lo go lo Cesarca, where lies tho rock on which St. Peter received tho divine benediction. Tho nrchitect will detuch a piece of it, nnd send it to Vi enna for the great ceremony to which I havo alluded."

From this elevation it descends by means of another tube lo tho ground, and is conducted to the reservoir of the Pantheon, whence it is distributed for tho use of the inhabitants. The temperature of the water is constantly 80 deg. Fahren oil. It holds several sails in solution, among which is iron which colors glass Mibmitted to its notion and is highly charged wilh carbonic acid gas.
