The Times Washington dispatch says army

that heavy cannonading was heard since ear

Court House. The firing was so heavy and
continuous as to. preclude the possibility of

One division oil our army occupies Freder-

Supplies have been dispatched to Gen. Meade
by a new route. The weather is frightfully
cold, and has been since yesterday. The bad

taiuly die.
The train from Bealton Station, which ar
rived here late tonight, brings intelligence
that heavy and continuous firing was heard
from early dawn this morning up to 5 o'clock
+. NJ. when the train left Bealton.
The Star this evening says: Even if Gen.
Meade should be defeated in battle, he can
easily fall back on Fredericksburg, where he
could soon receive supplies from Aqua Greek,
adding that the railroad from that point to
Fredericksburg is very nearly in working or

THE PAY OF POLICE OFFIcERs.-A petit
ton TO the Mayor and Aldermen already
signed by some ofthe heaviest business men and
tax payers Of our city, is in circulation, asking
that the request of the Police Officers of our
city, for an increase of pay, may be granted.
These officers, in consideration of the fact,
that no fees or compensation for any service
Is allowed them outside Of their salaries-that
their uniform, which has to be furnished at
their own expense is costing them much
more than usual-that the prices of every ar
ticle of consumption are nearly double, ask
that their pay may be 81 day.
To obtain competent, trustworthy and
faithful men in this department of service, it
is requisite that the amount paid should be
equal to what competent men can earn else
where. To ill up the ranks of our Police
with cheap men, or men who have no regard
would make up satisfactory salary by receiv-
ing large sums from persons detected in GRIM
inal acts TO be let off, would be placing the
ship of state or the municipality at the mercy
OF wind and waves, or what is worse, of the
vicious and unprincipled who may Temporal
rily reside among US. We hear that the pay
of the Police Officers in Boston has been raised
TO 1925 per day, dating back TO the time of
their appointment. We see nothing unrca-
sonable ia the request of the Officers, and as
1t has been endorsed by the leading business
men of the city who have good share of the
bills to pay, the request will undoubtedly be
granted. 1t is generally conceded that we
have as efficient Police now as our city, or
any other has ever been favored with.

A COOP SToyE.-In these times of dear
fuel and cold weather, it is an object to secure
a stove Ia which steady fire may be main
tanned with the least consumption of coal.
There are stoves that can be run a whole
winter, night and day, capable of warm
ing one large room, with not over a ton
and a half Of coal. One of these is the Fire
Side beautiful parlor stove, excellent cast
ings, neat in appearance, easily worked, free
from dust when shaking down, and all in all,
superior to anything that it has yet been our
fortune TO use. There are other good stoves,
perhaps fully equal to this, but though we
have had much experience in using such ar
ticles, we award the first prize to the Sire
Side," OF all the stoves that have come under
our personal examination. We purchased one
of Messrs. 0. NJ. & d. w. Nash, Exchange
street, and, according to present indications,
we shall be enabled, with it, to snap our
fingers mot only at cold weather but also at
the high prices OF coal.
