THE FIRE IN New YoRK.-We notice,
it is stated in some of the papers, that the
late fire 10 New York, which destroyed
property to the amount of $350,000 was
probably the result Of the suspension of
the special fire watch which had for some
time been supported at an expense Of 3d.
900 annually. Fires had been few and
small during the existence of this watch !;
but now, as before, they are breaking out
on large scale. We have heard Of be-
ing "penny wise and pound foolish, which
seems to be fulfilled in this matter.
