Mr. EDITOR The destructive fire of last
night, and the earnest but, in some cases, mis-
directed efforts Of our good citizens, suggested
60 my mind the necessity of the immediate or
ganiziHg of Hook and Ladder Fire Company.
This company should be formed of strong, able
bndied men, and their equipment should consist
OF from four to six axes, four good hooks, two
extension and two hook. ladders. Of course,
these would be supplied by the commissioners.
An Engine Fire Company should be formed
also; and, to remedy a serious evil, the waste
of water and time in running to and from the
pumps, the persons present at fire should form
line and pass the buckets up one side and
down the other; by this means there would be
a constant communication between the engine
and the pumps And would it not be well to
have full supply of leather buckets placed in
the engine-house SO that every one might be
thoroughly furnished for the work The cap
tains of these departments should have the full
and entire management of their apparatus, and
she "Outsders' - should act in concert with
them. What we wanted last night was leader.
Let US have them regularly constituted. The
southwest wind saved the lower portion of our
town last night, but where and under what cir
cumstances our next fire may be, we know not
let US prepare for it. AN OBSERVER.

blended with chivalry, would be laughed
