congratulate the City Council, and all who have
so mhuIuIly anu ulSlQteTeBLeuIy lAOOTeu the
reform: say let me congratulate them on the
complete triumphs of law and order over mis-
rule; but while Congratulations come from me
and find response in the breast of every good
citizen who has the future interest and prosper
ity of Cincinnati at heart, there are others,
fathers and mothers, whose voices you do not
hear, yet in their hearts they thank you for
staying so desolating PLACE spot in our midst,
as the Engine house had become, and thus clos
ing up one of the haunts of vice into which
their sons were allured. And, lastly, let me as.
sure Won that there are none who rejoice more
in the good results wrought by the change than
the real firemen themselves, for to them all the
evils Of the volunteer system had been known
and understood, but their power for correction
was impotent."

course, clear saving Of q proportionate amount
of fuel, and the effect will be to render unne-

One of the Collins steamers uses eighty tons Of

tons for every trip across the Atlantic. Esti
mating the value Of coal at IS per ton, this
would make the cost Of fuel per day $400, and
for trip, counting its average length ten days,
$4,000. As each steamer crosses the Atlantic
the YEARLY expense for each steamer must be
over $4,000, and for the three steamers
$4,000. If the improved machinery is sue
cessful. and they succeed in saving 40 per cent
. it will amount to the snug sum of $62 900, all
clear gain.
