FIRE APPARATUS.

Our city is being built up very compact
~ and With large number Of wooden
buildings. We have had several fires re.
Gently, but fortunately the houses we're de-
tached from others. Who can foreleli the

windy night on Front or Second SITS

portion Of the city. The chances are more
Iin favor than against such calamity
Shall we moi guard against il?
A friend has written to St. Louis and
made inquiry respecting the expense Of
fire apparatus. He ascertains the cost Of
> good force or suction engine TO DO about
$500. Hose can be obtained at from 60
TO 10 els. per foot. A. present force en-
CINE might answer our purpose, in con
nection with well organized fire com
pany and with such books aud ladders as
could be made here. The whole expense
would not exceed $4,000. We would
rather, horUsrr, sec tho amount doubled
,nd complete apparatus obtained.
The above sum would be saved our citi,
zens 10 few years in the reduced rate O.
insurance that would follow the in,roduc.
ton Of effective fire engines into the place
As the seasons offires is approaching we
hope our Council--to whom the subieci
properly belongs--wiII take the subjec,
into consideration and adopt some meas
urcs TO guard our city against the rayages
ofihe devastating element.

OuR SENATOR.

Hon. Gro. w. JoSxs, Of Dubuque, has
returned 10 bis homo from Washington
City, where after session Of nine months,
he has al its close, after indctatigable exer-
tons, succeeded in pocketing an approprl-
ton Of $4,000 for the improvement Of the
harbor Of Dubuque. In doing this no has
had 10 rip up the frmcst plank IN the Loco,
foco platform, aud boldly take his stand OF
Wing ground. Il is ever so; the Locotocos
adopt platform Of principles, as they term
them, and If ever they wish to do any thlns
for the good Of their country, or any portion
Of it, must violate their professions. Geo
w. Jones found that il would not do TO 70
turn TO his constituents after an absence Of
mir months, without anything to show ms
the result of his labor, therefore at the
eleventh hour he comes upon Wing ground
and begs few thousand dollars for Du-
buque. That may do for the people Of
that city, but those in other portions OF the
District would like something to show for
the amour, they have been taxed to sup.
port the "phancy Senator" at Washington
We commend the following extract from
the Keokuk Dispatch, one OF the bli'eres'
Locofoco papers in the West, to those ed.
tors of the same school, who with less hon.
esty, trsduce the brave defender Of their
country's rights md iberties:-
THE CHARGES OF CowARDlCE AGAINST
GEN. SCOTT.
We have seen in one or two Democratic
exchanges, land only one or two.) a long
specification Of charges, 10 the effect that
Gen. Scot, has been guilty of cowsrdce.
We have not published them, and shall not.
We consider it absurd and wrong TO endea
vor to produce any such impression upon
the popular mind; at the same time thai
these Democratic papers are abundantls
justified in their course, by the rule of re.
Gen. Scott mas been brave
His body has been pierced
by many musket balls. and, with gallant
~ equalled by his distinguished mili,ar,
skill, he has led our armies TO victory on
many hard fought battlefield. His rep
utation is the common pride Of the nation,
and it is unmsnly and un-Amercan, for
mere electioneering purposes, to seek TO
raduce it.
