Fire! About eleven o'clock on Saturday
night last our citizens, were aroused by the ap-
paliing cry of fire II occurred at the residence
of Mr.. John a. Wicker. His house, hand.
some two-story building, was entirely consumd
together with portion of the furniture. The
Kitchen, or rather the frame of it saved for
the weather-boarding was knocked of, and con-
sideral quantity of bacon was also preserved.
The fire, it is believed, originated from candle,
which had been left in one of the Upper roomsj
and when discovered had made such progress as
TO render Intellectual all attempts TO extngush it.
While upon this subject we wo1d venture to
suggest to the City authorities the importance of
having more Pumps, and more energy and quick
ness in the Fire Department. The Fire Com.
pany will no doubt do its duty, whenever an em-
ergency arises, but the importance of having
supplies of water at hand, and of having but one
will, and that the will of the Captain Of the Com
pany must besapparent to all. When men go to
war they fight, as their leader tells them, without
asking questions; and so it ought to DC when they
fight fire.
