The Cheibtma tbf.b. From earliest day the iietnia tree has been a type of the happy and joyous easou, and this pretty feature is till retained by the true lover of the Chrit-mas time. We have been reminded more of the approaching holiday by seeing the Christmas tree in the window of Wadswortb'a book and stationery establishment, I Mam treet bridge. Tbis evergreen is bearing a rich harvest of Christmas gifts, including beautiful and nniqne article sold by this firm. On a closer investigation of Mr.

Wadsworfb's stock, we found that be was not behind bis competitors in the trade for the holiday. After a sojourn of several dovt in Xew York he succeeded in selecting a most elegant stock of goods appropriate for tbi time, and while we cannot go into detail a to a description ol them, we may be enabled to give some hints to the reader aa to when he or she may go for nise goods. We found a very large lot of writing desk, from the elegant polished rosewood inlaid with pearl lined with satin and velvet and stocked with all the essential for writing, to the plainer style of tbe artiele. Gorgeous papier tnaehe handkerchief, glove and jewel case-, ornament for any lady's toilet; velvet passe-partouts for center tables and mantel, traveling and dressing cases rare in design and superb ia finish; stereoscopic views embracing both foreign and local subjects, all new; juvenile works, the best English editions, with chromos, wallets, and dressing cases in Russia leather; all the old and new games such as carroruette, magic hoops for parlor or lawn, walnut brackets in all the various styles, and diaries in all sixes and in handsome Russia and Morocco binding, and albums from tbe large oci a vo neatly bound to the cheaper qualify nf those goods. One can find an ex to tbe officials of tbe different ritle in wbieh tbe Holly system of water work was in use, and to make inquiries as to bow well they were sariafied with its operation.

tben adjourned to asiembie at tbe call of tbe chairman. Blraa and Wernsa Ball. The annual ball of the Bir la and Worm to plane last night, and like everything with which they have bad anything to do was a success. Whatever they touch they adorn. Tbe whimsical names and the still more whlmaiaal costumes which tbey assume cannot coueeal the gentlemanly qualities of ths members the rlub.

Their tact, taste and excellent management shine the brighter by contrast with uncouthness of dre and style which tbey a Beet, There is a freedom and boldness about them which Is irresistible, and yet they never transgress the limits of the straitest pro-pn ty Tbey ran go so far without 'er stepping over tbe border of good taste that it is no wonder tbey are popular. Winter and summer they are sure to ajoy the sonahlne of public favor, and all will ceucar in wishing their pros erity a long ntinuanre. Tbe hall last night was like ita predecessors a joyful affai Corinthian Hal i had been tastelully deeoraii I by tbe committee for that purpose, Messrs. lo'on, Ridley and Maunir, one ornament deservmj speeia! atta-tkHi a large frame at one end of tbe ball with a monogram of the society, designed by Birron Wilson, and allegorical birds and worms nicely arranged by the Messrs. Weldon.

Tbe music was furnished by Sehaick's orchestra. Kverytluog connected with the entertainment was characteristic, and even the invitation cards strangely shaped and of unusual material bad drawn laughing comments from all who received then. Tbe programme of dances was entitled "Birds and YorTOs' foot-sbake with calico trimmings De-cemt er lSth.llrTI, and the list was head I with tbe suggestive phrase How they go. Each lndy received, ou entering, a handkerehiet marked with a and and containing a programme of the dances, beaded What ia required of you. This strange article was aromatic with Woodworth's most fragrant perfume.

Tbe robes of most the ladies present, especially those engaged dancing, were of uivers colored calicos; but then, as Bum says of bis sweet-heart, their ks would make "ony dress look braw. The memheni of tbi entf ttainin clnb did not all appear in their appropriate costumes, but those who did eo certainly gave increased loveliness ie the scene.

The uniform worn by tbe floor-managers and many others consisted of a dark blue calico jacket and white pantaloons, with a huge white rosette, fT 7 -z- tTLv jstepositorj- Xia7 BIBLE HOTJ3E.

The Committee had writt-n to Mr ep, secretary of the Holly water work t-ant of IxckK)rt, aaking him to meet tbem ai.d Aplarn the uecaKaritie of the Hoily syateni of tnpply, and pubmit estimates as to the cut of the constrncrion of snitahle works of that pat-let for Rochester. Mr. Keep was present, ai.d li. come length. He if an elegant and forcible talker.

His mind is stored with facts, figures and theories con fee ted with the business in whi-li he ta engaged, and be uses tbem all skillfully, speaking at the name time with an air ol great candor and fairness. The tntereta which he ad-socates will certainly nothing at his bands- He himself will doubtle attrihnte any sueceas he may meet with to tbe excellence of the works be acts tor rather than to his own in setting forward their Through tbe conrte of the committee we listened to tbe description of the subject, and note the point piesented as far as can be done without anticipating the materials of the committee" final reiort or interfering with their private discnssioua before reaching a specific determination. The Holly system of water works has r.ow bsen put into operation in oyer forty diderent place although it first application is comparatively recent. It was firt tried in Lockpori, and is in use that city simply aa a protection against fire. It is linyeu by a water wheel, the sixty six Icrt fall of the canal at that place furnishing Dormou power.

Tbe Auburn water works were the next constructed. They were completed some ix years ago and baye been tn successful operation erer since. Mr. Keep that although tbe Auburn works are crude compared to those which the company are now constructing, yet they are not at all afraid to invite a crutin.y at that city and refer couri-tlrntly to the people there for indorsement. In that place they also operate by water power.

Tbe Holly system baa been adopted to supplement the reservoir system, which has been a partial 'aifure at Syracuse and Buffalo. It has also been adopted in Bingham ton, Scheuectady, Peoria, Columbus, Covington, unkirk, Evans-ville, Indianapolis, Atlanta and various other place. Private enterprise has also undertaken to Bupply Denver, Colorado, by this plan. The principal characteristics of the eystem are that no reservoirs need be constructed, tbe water furnished will be filtered and consequently perfectly pure, and the distribution will take place by moans of force pnmps instead of a bead of water. As for reservoirs.

It is contended that frog spawn will gather on tbem, fish breed in them, and all kinds of filth accumulate in tbem tbe supply is taken from the bottom or dregs of the pond: and though the original source were as pure as crystal and aa cold as ice, tbe purity ana coolness would soon be lost where the water has stood fcr hours nnder the sun in a stagnant reservoir. Mr. Keep contended that no reservoir could be tjpnveniently constructed in the neighborhood of Rochester, at sufficient elevation to give a bead of water sufficient make the supply effective in case of fire. Indeed, where the supply depended npon an elevated reservoir alone it was generally lonnd that the water would scarcely flow on draught in the secoud or third stories. Tbe croton water failed above the second story in the Astor house at New York, and in Chicago at a point two miles away froBS their stand pipe where they expected throw a stream of water over a hundred feet high, the water would barely flow in the second tori of blocks.

A reservoir 107 feet elevation at Syracuse had failed to supply the higher parte of the city, and another at a height of 166 feet had been built. Eren this had proved ineffieieat. and the aid of the Holly system had been called in. At Buffalo, with elevation at the fountain head of, we think, 128 feet, the water would not flow to anything like that blight in the pipes, and their system was employed to famish water to all the higher parts of the city and for fire purposes in the principal It is proposed in supplying Rochester with water, to draw the supply from the Genesee river, about a mile above the city. The well or ells in wbiuh tbe pomps would take suction would have to be conatrneted and located to suit the nature of the spot chosen.

If a bed of sand or gravel could be found at a convenient point it could be used as natural filter. The well might dug at a distance of 100 or 160 feet from the river shore, and tbe water would run through the sand into and become periectlv pure. The wells vary sire. Tbe works at Covington have a tank well only eighteen feet iu diameter, those at Biiigbamton have two wells, each twenty-five feet iu diameter. The amount of water sup- plied was 3, 000,000 gallons daily, and ia his opiu.

i lonthe wcllswere unnecessarily large being made so to suit the wishes ot the people of the place, At Binghamton the water waa filtered through natural bank of sand, ai the weils were 150 feet from the nver. The construction or an artificial filter waa a very simple m.itter and at- tended with comparatively trifling cost. It would be a large estimate to say that one suitable for the wanft of this city would cost $1. -500. One of those constructed by the company (we give the dimensions from memory) consisted of a bed ot sand about eightien feet long and nine feet wide, and it was large enough to pnrify the water supply for a ldace of some 30,000.

As an example of tbe great cleansing powers of such filters, Mr. Keep related his own experience in tbe manufacture of fiue white batung iu Lock port some ten years ago. The water which the manufactur ers werepaing colored the batting a aanron hue, but after constructing a filter, by way of ex periment and using the strained water tbey found tbe product snowy white. The aaud they had expected to be obliged to change every tew days, but it bad remained clean and pure for two year. He wonld guarantee tbat every sediment and itupuiity except such matter as was held in solution would be removed from tbe water.

Tbe distribution of tbe water would take place throngh one large main and from that through the mailer pipe. Tbe system aimed at establishing a circular flow. There would be valves at each entrance to a pipe and a net work of communication would exist throughout tbe whole. The forcing power would coasiat of three steatn engines, two of them piston engines and oue rotary. The two former might be worked together or separately The latter wa calculated to be about equal in power to tbe other two.

The measure of tbe working capacity of these macbiues would, we believe, he some 500 horse power in order to secure to threity a supply of 5,000,000 gal loss of water in twenty-four hours. The uniform pressure which tbe distribution would require is set dow'i at forty pounds to the inch. In ease of a fire this pressure would be increased 10Q pound. A governor is connected with the machinery which is sensitive to the least lrregu-iaiitj in the flew of the water acd indicates it at oi.ci-. When a tire ia discovered and a hydrant opened, the nnwoutcd rush if watei in that direction causes tbe opening of a valve and 1 tbe sounding of a steam whistle which can bs beard for mi lea.

By actual experiment it has been found that an alarm a mile and a halt dis-I taut will be answered in this way in jist thirty seconds. Cnder increase of pressure, which tbe engineer can put on at warning, the hydrauts I in any part of tbe city wiil throw streams over one hundred feel in Leigtil llie estimated coat for the eoDsLructaoo of a complete system of water works fur Rochester, including one mile of main pipe, twenty miles of distributing pipe, all ot iron, iOO hydrants, engines and all complete is set down by Mr Keep at a trifle er The amount of water thus to be secured would be 5, 0Ou, 000 gallon every twenty four hour, taken from the nver above i the city. The Holly company would furnish plan for the works and the engines which they manufacture theuiselve for tbe sum of tsju, th other items would sum ap somewhat under rather than over the llgnroa given by Mr Keep. If an order were veu at present lor thn machinery it laid be by th. l.t of July, probably before Rochester arrive at a decision a to it course, the company will be engaged oruew bar-far her ahead.

Tbe cost of maintaining the work in o.eralion would be per yeai The coat at Bingham-Ion was $9,000. The income from water rates i would probably in the oouras of time ovarbal- a nee tbi, expense There would also be a saving in fire department outlay Peoria since the system was in operation had already sold its lat steam tire engine. Tbe great influence of the system of water work waa over tbe rate of insurance. Cnderwntera invariably reduced their rate one-third where tbe system was in operation and a saving was thus accomplished which would in a abort time pay tor tbe coat of the proposed euterpnsw.

The parity ot the lake water was reported to be but a trifle, about onej per cent greater loan tbat of tbe river asuth at the city. Alter dia.

uaaing toe isoatiibilit; of using water power lor via machinery instead ol stesm, tbi committee passed a reeolunoe infracting Use obau-tOBU and secretary write of H. at of in i in to render th'a portiou of the machinery durable nrd pcrfecCin working Of all others the reciprocating aw-toothe! knife has proved the moat practical for general use. bnt to keep in order hat been a monnt.vn of labssr and the source of unending annoyance. Th sections would break, the bar would break, tbe knives would become dull, therefore, useless for work, and repair have to be made at the loss of time and considerable expense. Devise have been invented for erinding, but they have all oniy partially answered tbe purpose, aud have been in a measnre failures- It is known of course to those anyway conversant with reaper and mower knives ttrst the sectiins have been affixed to the bar by means of rivets, and tbe breaking of one ot the sections required th removal of the old rivet and replacing the knife with new ones.

Tbis was, to say the least, a tioublrsome job Tbe idea of employing arljnwtible sectiosis has often been suggested but never we believe put into practical use until the patent for Hebbard'a knife wa procured, in April, 187. The patentee of this article feels that the desire in point of excellence in this important part of the reaper has been reached at last. Tbe knife has been put to a practical test for two seasons hy some of our best farmer in this and other states, and tbe result has established beyond noubt that for general use, strength and durability it is unsurpassed, and fully meets the demands of the farming community. Xow the advantages ot tbis invention may be briefly stated. It avoid making rivet hole iu the bur.

therefore increasing its strength: the sectii ns are made firmer on the bar. and greater strength is secured; the sections are removed with case and facility, and are therefore easily and jtertectly ground; tbe same anele and level of tbe knife is retained, and abrupt shoulder at the heel which are found iu old knives are avoided. It may be readily understood tbat from tha vast numlier of mowers and reajiers manufactured each year tbe demand for the new knife must necessarily be txtiemely large. For the benefit of tbose unacquainted with tbe trade, we sie a few particulars respecting the number manufactured, stock consumed, Ate. Last season 175,000 reapers and mowers were built, requiring 350,000 knives to supply them, using ia the manufacture of the sections and bars about 50J toss of sheet steel aud nearly 400 tons of bar iron or steel, rivets to tbe number of 11,900,000 were required to attach the sections to the brs which in tbe new method is entirely dispensed with.

The manufacture oi harvesting machinery is now and must be for years to come on tbe increase, consequently must be supplied with knives. Tbe knife manufacturing ia a distinct branch from machine manufacturing, and it is well known tbat those engaged in it have in a few years amassed large fortunes. This knife is a home institution brought out, and with the machinery for making perfected here, taking two year time and expense to do it, tbe experimental part all being accomplished. All seeing it lor the past two years speak highly in its favor, at numer ols testimonials shew, and builders of machines ning it last season are ordering it for next. The owner has had offers to go both east and west and establish it in towns that have an eye open to tbi class of manufacture, and for want of capital to carry it on here has been inclined to do so.

It seems a great mistake to allow such articles of manufacture to go from our midst when we have all the facilities that can be required to retain tbem and add to tbe interest of tbe city. Tbe owner ha been Induced to organise a company here to manufacture for this and tbe eastern states, which about 60, 000 machines are bnilt annually, requiting ISO, 000 knives. Yesterday a number of gentlemen visited the Barton bnilding, 136 Mill street, where the knives are manufactured, for the purpose of inspecting tbe process, which is very simple and exceedingly rapid. The sheet ol steel is cut into approximate size, cf tbe knite br machinery, it is then taken to another machine and punched, thence to another, where, after being heated to a red hot heat in molten led, it is curved so as to slide on the bar: it is next made true at the ends aid finally gronnd and poliahed. The processor doing all this ia wonderfully quick, and it would seem at it these knives could be atade a fast as the steel can be bandied Tbe man -facture of these knives if conducted in Rochester must necessarily grow iuto large p'-oporlians.

Siuiiples of the knives may be seen for a few days at tbe office of H. E. White, 39 Reynolds' Arcade, and those desiring an interest in a good, legitimate and profitable business, after examining the work, will not be slow in subscribing for stock. It certainly may be soa-Bidered by practical men as a good investment, Bells, bells, belis, bell, bells, bells, a A. V.

Among the standard business houses of this city none takes higher rank than that conducted by Storms A Furman, clothiers, corner of Front and Bnffalo street. This firm has been in the trade so long that the eitixens of Rochester and vicinity have fully tested its mode of doing business, and we are inclined to the belief that it boles a high and enviable position in the estimation of the commuuity. Tbia house was the first to originate in the city the one-price system of trade, and for thit reason it gained tho confidence of tbe people and an extensive bttsi-new.

Time baa not leseued their patronage, but it bas grown to such an extent that they have had to Largely mere ate their stock aa well as their facilities for manufacturing. Their salesroom it heavily stocked wilb ready-made goods in coats, pantaloons and rests both for men and boys' wear. These garments are not of shop-made kind, but prepared with all the. taste and neatness of custom roods. Tbey have a large stock of clothe, both foreign and domestic, from which their stock of ready made and custom work is manufactured.

Cutter of great experience are employed in tbe custom department, and every garmeut sent out by this firm of this character is guaranteed to be up the highest notch of fashion, and at the same time durably made. Tne patron of Storm A Furman need no urging to make them a visit when iu nerd of fine clothing, but for those who have not yet tried tbis establishment we write this paragraph, feeling that if tbey accept our suggestion they will benefit thereby. Still thet go. Only by tbe constant arrival of new good Ls the toek at Woodward's art depot kept np. The demand for those superb chromos continues to increase, and tbe trade of this concern iu this branch of their stock aloue is nearly beyond calculation.

A FAVORABLE Tl MB TO BUT WINES AND LiqcoBS. Tbe eitixens of Rochester and vicinity have already been made aware that E. V.

ExAMrWATIOS OF JCAtP, THE ALLEGED HIGH-WAT bobber. The formal examination was begun yesterday morning at Brighton. A number of witnesses whose testimony we have previously given were resworn and corroborated their former statements. Charles H.

Sawyer, the lock tender, gave a detailed tate-ment of hie encountering both Snyder and Jump. A boat bad just passed the lock and Sawyer was endeavoring to close one of tbe gates at the eastern end which waa obstructed by ice. Finding that he could not, he walked to tbe otbet end of at lock to raise one of the paddles. It was then he saw Jump, who crossed the lock from the grocery and walked along the heel-path toward home. The men spoke to each other, Jump remarking that the night would be cold.

Tbe lock-tender again proceeded to tbe eastern end of tbe lock, and once more ineffectually tried to close the gate. He next started the second time to the western end ot the lock tor a pike-pole to push aside the ice, and at this moment met Snyder, -who was going on hit erranu toward the groeery. There was therefore at least five minuies' time between Sawyer's meeting the two. It was nearly a quarter of au hour before the youug man emerged from the grocery, tbe lock tender had closed his gates and gone home, and Jump had time to do tbe same. If he saw Snyder at all be most have returned to the grocery and either re-entered it or seen what was going on through the window.

In order to show that he did return, constable J. B. Mariley was sworn. He detailed a conversation had wita the prisoner in jail Sunday, when the latter told him tbat he waa in tbe grocery at the same time that Snyder was engaged in gefing the bil' exchanged. We are informed that Jump denies having made the above admission.

Poiicemau Cole was also sworn, and related a conversation between himself anil Alderman Stape La relation to tbe affair. The alderman bad informed him that lady reported she knew pertons who had seen Jump looking in through the window of the grocery. The officer said he had endeavored to find the woman, but she had Binee moved out of the state. Prisoner's counsel, J. H.

McDonald, objected to this testimony as merely hearsay, but the justice admitted it Tbe examination was adjourned to Thursday morning, and Jump remanded to jail. OpEBAHorsE. 'On tbe Track" was repeated last nigbt to a fair house, considering tbat everybody was anxious to get into Corinthian hail. The versatile actor, G. Swaine Buckley, again succeeded in thoroughly pleasing the audience.

The reputation wbieh Mr. Buckley, Bryant and other negro minstrels have acquired on the etage proves that a first -class negro comedian is of necessity capable of becoming a popular actor. The tame piece will be played to-night. It give good satisfaction aud will be likely to draw a large audience. Tilt COUttTB.
