-oFrom d16 Batthnure Sun.) Cast frn idlusis.. the subject of gililhig warehous. es, dwellings, publit-edifiees, &c., of cast irom is beginning to attract con siderablo attentioi throughout the country'. Tle first entire cast iron Sbuildiirg constructed in this country was.Qoreeted' about two-yea s'since in New-York by Mr. Borgardus-, a woohanic of the highest order-ofgen Jug'. d' talent.- It was built for his 'own businesi, (6el' ding cast iron -iouses,) and is' a canpfobe and beau tiful structure- The next of import. anct in' si, andof an- entirely oir. jinal design, will be orested in .Bltil nore for the Sun newspaper, which ve hope will do credit to all the different mechanics and laborers . engaged in its construction, and Irove' an orrmment to our city. We find the following on the sub 'eot of cast iron buildings in the New. York Mirror Cast Irroin Budings1.-Public attention has been aroused to the ne eessity of adopting some method of building which will ef&ctually pre vent the spread of a conflagration when it occvrs in the business por tions of our city, and the lamentable destruction of property conscquent Aporr it, The Surr newspaper has recently taken up the subject warmly, and is advocating the passa-ge of a law, ."That no building shall hereafter be erected except it is Fire proof." The operation of auch a law would appeur at first impracticable, but a little reflection will satisfy every one that it would not only be entirely feasable, but would attain the end so much to be desired, without involving any new pridciple or burthening the *buialer with any additional expense. The public probably do not sufli ciently appreciate the fact, that we have' at hand a material destined, as if by Providence, to be applied to .just such a purpose; we refer to iron -a ineterial better adapted to the construction of houses for living, manufacturing, or public purposes, than either hrick, wood or stone, and one susceptible of being worked with more- ease, beauty and economy than any other in use. Theorpace of a newspaper article is too limited to allow of a full dis cussion upon the peculiar adaptation of iron for the purposes alluded to, but a few of its most obvious advant -ages may be enumerated. First-As regards form and shape. Porma-which stone could never be made to assumq, varying from the gest fairy siotures to the most ~ ~Taboiate dlesigns of (Ile Grecian or Saving of space in foundations, discarding the cumbrous pile of stones, and substituting a firmer and more compact base. The capability of being speedily and easily erected, or of being taken down and removed without a loss of time or inaterial. Protection against lightning-a philosophical certainty. Security against fire--In addition tolthe iron presenting no "food for fire" naturally, in the formation of the parts of an iron building, it can never be injured by contraction in the event of internal conflagration, or cracked by the sudden application of water, even were it brought to a white b~eat. Ventilation-thne nature of the material affording the best method of securing the most perfect system of ventilation. Adcilities for the transmission of sound-a desideratum in all churches or public buildings adapted for large audiences. Absence of vermin-avoidance of mildew and absorption of' dampness. For the application of paint-th' -best known material, affording a ben.e. ty of 'external finish wvith a pretection from the weather. Durability, strength and fimness, in particular for factories employing steam and heavy machinery. 8:rengthening properties of iron -for the constitution, as a principle of health. Ext'ernal and internal ornamnentaml finish by the means of eastings. Economy.-The slight ethfets of 9 time and -wear, tbe slight re pairs necessary, and the ease anid small ex pense with which additons may be made. The repetition of form.- Through the medium of castings, a single (Ie sign may be multipliedi a thousand tinids at the simple expense of the iron, saving time andl manual labor. The peculiar adaption of iron to teformation of circulinoar and graceful lines in contradistinction to 'the rectangular and perpendicular. -The severe rules which govern the Gothic and Grecian structures in the laying of stones, can be departed from in every essential particular. In connection with this last men tioned advantage, much might be said in regard to the adlaptation of antiqjue fomm to the wants of our comgrcal omuniy; ndwhether s ~hapmoroin~keeping with the pur tke Grecian Temple or the Go~res of the ancients, how evor~ #Jfttfu they may appear- at T'he forogin are a of- the many advantages which iron afferds over every other matarlal itq use fdr the construction, of our dwellings, factories, warehouses or churches. Tle subect ought to be examined into andi treated by men of science; and thle public, in these d'ays of burn ing down and building up, should give their careful attention to a ma terial which carries with it the three great essentials of houso building, viz: a saving of time, labor, and expen8e-. Population of San Francisco. The community of San Francisco is a perfect alla podridez, although its. principal ingredient and general char noter is American. The Americans are the onions and flavor that season the whole dish Let any one place himself in any one spot for a half an hour, and he will see as many castes as were over dreamed of in his philos ophy-casts of humanity in clay by a great master not the counterfeit pre sentment in plaster-of-paris, wrought by human hands. And yet there is no clashing no interference, TO nation al, sectional feelings engendered, and a better regulated community never existed. Here you will find the Ncw York merchant, Southern planter, the Western farner and the Eastern tra(ler-the slave-holder and the hot, headed abolitionist. Here is the vol atile, enthusiastic, sanguine French man. Then conies the fiery, hot-bloo ded Italian, who lowers his brows, and growls out a deep 'diarolo' through his teeth, if one but jogs his elbow. In his wake comes the stolid German, with his little blue cap and enormous vizor, who seems, while he inhales his tobacco smoke from the bowl of his Dutch pipe, to exist but in a dre am; but in his eyes you can see his faivorite expression, 'Mcin Gott, what a countries!' Next we see the English man-who, let him live under Ameri can institutions till lie grows grey let him associate, with Americans all his life-never loses his nationality. le bears his birth-right upon his brow lie carries it in his hat, it is imprinted upon his coat, it is perceptible in his vest, it it evident in his trousers; and unquestioiable in his gaiters and shoes. Then conies the child of Erin; poor, lowntrodden, betrayed Ireland. His looks are brighter now, but sad dening thoughts will cast a shade over his broiw when lie thinks of the green sod that grows over the graves of his ancestors. When lie conjures up the history of her long, long years of poverty and oppression, when he sees the thousands upon thousands of his countrymen starving and dving like dogs upon the wayside, the~ big tear glistens in his eye: aiid yet he yearns for home, and determines when lie has obtained wealth to fly again to his own, his native land. The harpe is music to his eair, the shamrock the oasis in the desert and lie echoes the wvords of the song: "Oh, steeoy hark to I-:riun's Isito For Ern is~ my humr~e." in all due reverence and rincerity, and with his 'heart in his mouth. And here is youir cannie Scot, firom Aberdeen or Gilasgow, a loag-headed chiel, who takes caure of the pennies, the bonnie. mneriry Scot. Now stalks the Spaniard, with his dark complex. ion, his raven locks, his piercing eye, 'jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quarr-el;' the proud blood of the Castilian nobles miantles readily to his check, and lie bows with the air of a Don of ob leni time, Hie is fo'llowed by a Mexican. ie is proud of the few drops of Castiliaii blood that r main in his v'eins; but lie is merely a counterfeit present ment. I iere comes a bevy of Celestials, with their dlark, loose clothing, their i-reproachle~l white stockings, and their pr-actical boots an d shoes. They are aill ver-y hiappy and veiry elainisht; thle only real socialists in existeuce. They~ guard thmeir u;i:-tamIls as they doi their hionior, and chmeish them w ith the uit:uiost de votioii. A\ Ch'linese wvonhll as soon thmink of severing his head fr-om his body, as cur itailing the fair pro por-tions of thme heirloom of his counitry' Th'le Celestials are veryv usefuil, quiet, good citizens, and am-c deserving the respect of all. Then comes the tawin ey Mialay' diressedi in a half-civilized style, veryv dirty, but withi a cari--age and hena-ing thiat woul become a regal court. Hie looks out of place in ouri str-eets, givinig one the idea of au degenerated and~ disgusted Oithiello. Here comes the tall amid nmanly P ole; andI as we watch his form, we 'can but driop a teai- fori poor Poland. whose children have shed so much of their heart's blood for- liberty, lhnt ini vain. Watch the Chiilanmos, the P'eruvians, thme Swiss, thme Rusians, Pruussians lKanakas, ne~gr~Oes, aind-no, we have no GhIilaneos here as y-et, thiough maiiy bear- as dlistinictive marks of thmeiir consangiiity to the animal i-ace as do the newlyv-discovei-ed 'Glhilanes or men wvith tails.' And all these in hiabitanats of the four qnurter-s of the globc have been attracted to thme spot by the magnetic influence of gold. They are all seeking it--some with hiigh and noble thought~s, some for the sake of gol, that they may make a noise in the world, sonme for ends, and some for a simple living, bed, boai-d alnd lodging-for the meiro sustenance of nature. This sti'ikes the eye of all and is but a faint, mear shaoro our WpitioWM;be olown says in C the circus, tit'mgo Joh'yLobu r Alta Californi a A Etg1band Aneodote J By SIR WALTMR SCOTT. I The story is an old but not ancient v one, the actor and sufferer was not a r very aged man, when I heard the I anecdote in my early youth. Dun- t can, for so Ishall call him, bad been engaged in the affair of 1746, with e othera of his clan; and was supposed: by many to have been an accomplice ] if not the principal actor, in a cer tain tragical affair, which made much noise a good many years after the rebellion. I am content with indica ting this, in order to give some idea of the man's character, which was bold, fierce, and enterprising. Tra ces of this natural disposition still re mained on Duncan's very good fea. tures, and in his keen grey eye. But the limbs, like those of the aged bor derer in a former tale, had becomo unable to serve the purpose and obey the diclates of his inclination. On the one side of his body lie retained the proportions and firmness of an active mountaineer; on the other, lie was a disabled cripple, scarce able to limp along the streets. The cause which reduced him to this state of in firmity was singular. Twenty years or more before I kn4* Duncan, lie assisted his brothers in framing a large grazing in the Highlands, comprehending an ex tensive range of mountain and forest land, morass, lake and precipice. It chanced that a sheep or goat was missing from the flock, and Duncan, not satisfied with despatching his sliepards in one direction, went him self in quest of the fugitive in another. In the course of his researches, he was induced to ascend a small and narrow path, leading to the top of a high precipice. Dangerous as it was at first, the road became doubly so as lie advanced. It was not much more than two feet broad, so ragged and dlifficult, and, at the same time so terrible, that it would have been impracticable to any but the light step anti steady brain of a Ilighland er. The precipice on the right rose like a wall, and on the left, sunk to a depth which it was giddy to look down upon; but Duncan passed cheer fully on, now whistling the gathering of his clan, now taking heed to his footsteps when the difficulties of the path peculiarly required caution. In this manner lie had more than half ascended the precipice, when in midway, and it might almost 1e said, in middle air, lie encountered a buck of the red deer sPecies, coming down the cliff by the same path in an oppo site direction. If Duncan had had a gun no rencontre could have been more agreeable; but as he had not this advantage over the denizen of the wilderness, the meeting was in the hg estderee uinwelcome. Neither party hind the power of retreating, for the stag had not room to turn himself in the narrow path; and if Duncan hlad turned his back to go down, lie knew enough of the crea ture's habits to be certain that lie would rush upon him while engaged in the difficulties of the retreat. They stood perfectly still and looked at each other in mutual embarrassmenit ~for some space. IAt length the deer, which was of the largest size began' to lower his formidable antleis, as they do when they are brought to hay, and are pe parmng to rush upon hound aind hunts mnii. Duncan sawv the danger of a ennilict in which he must pr'obably come by thre worst, and~ as a last re source, str'etchied himself on the lit tle ledge of rock which lie occupied, and thius awaited the resolution which the deer should take, not making the least motion for fear of alarming the wildl and( susp)icious animal. They' remained in this posture for three or four hours, in the midst of a rock Iwhich would have suited the pencil of' Salv'ator, and which afforded barely room enough for the man arid stag, opposed to each other in this extra ordinary manner. A t length the buck semed to take the resolution of passing over the ob stacle which lay in his piath, amid with this pnrpose appr'oached towards Duncan very slowly and with caur tioni. When he camne to the 1Ihghl lander, lie stooped.( his head down as if to examine him more closely, whien the devil. or the untaimeable love of sport peculiar' to his countr'y, began to ovei'eo:nc Duncan's fears. See' ing the animal proceed so gently, lie totally forgot not only the danrgers oif his position, but the implicit com-~ Ipact which certainly might have beein iniferred from the circumstanoes of' thre situation. With onec hand D unmcanr seized thie deei-'s horn, wit h thre other lhe drew his diirk. liut in thei same instant the buck bounided over- the precipie, camrry'ing the IIliglilanider alonig with him. They went tus down upwards (of a hun di'ed feet, and weire found the next muoirng on the spot where they fell. F'ortune, who (does not always re tributive justice in her dispensation, ordered that the deer shoul fall1 un dermost, and be killed, on the apot, while Duncan escaped with life, but with the fracture of a leg, an arm, and three ribs. In this state ho was found lying on ihn carnas of th eer, and the injuries which lie had 00eied1 rndered him for the reim inder of his life the cripple I have ese I never could ap rove o )unM - conduot towards the deei 11 a moratoint of view (although, a the madif the play said, lie was ay friend,) but the temptation of u art of grease, offering, as it were lii broat to the knife, would have sub hied the virtue of almost any deer talker.
