ear The activity that is already observable in
all our mechanical departments, and the prepara-
tons that are being made, on all hands, for build
ing, this summer, afford gratifying evidence Of the
march Of improvement IN our midst. wewsfe I'M
pressed thus particularly, by hasty visit to Mr..
Luter's brick-yards, on the Charlotte road, few
evenings since. He has large force constantly at
work, there, making brick, and the indications
seemed to us to show that he, alone, preparing
TO build a little town. Thisis the case too, we are
told, at some halfa-dozen other brick-yards, about
Town, and, yet, it is feared that there will not be
brick enough made to supply the demand for new
buildings. Our carpenters stone-masons, plaster
ers and painters will of course, be proportonately
busy with the brick men. These things are GER
tany gratifying to all who feel interested in the
growth and prosperity Of Carksvillee.

ESy- One great need of our town, now, is more
thorough organization and equipment of our Fire
Department The two companies, we now have
own good machines and are faithful and efficient
workers; but their means are too limited TO admit
of tteir keeping up such discipline, and supplying
themselves with such apparatus, ms they ought to
have. The Eagle Company, we have heard, have
been forced to store their machine in public ware
house, for want Of house for i'll This company
has always been first and foremost in labor and in
danger, and the corporation and the citizens ought
to provide them an house, by all means.
A good hook and ladder company would be an in
valuable acquisition to the town. There is not in
the city either hook, or ladder for fire purposes!
In almost every fire that occurs there is necessity
for both, and both would be instrumental in saving
life and property.
Let us see If something cannot be done to render
our Fire Department more available and Efficient
Let the City Council, and the Insurance Companies,
and the property holders take the matter in hand.
1t is not too much to think of buying steam fire
engine. One good one, here, would be worth IA doz-
en- hand-machines, for after dragging the latter over
our hills, to fire, there is strength left in the
men to work them. Something must be done, and
it ought to be done speedily. =
