could afford TO defy the Aremen, and that
is Mr.. Thomas O. Acton, President Of the
Board of Metropolitan Police Commission
ers. He took the bull BY the horns, went
TO Albany, and said to the Committee -
Gentlemen, the Fire Department is costly,
inefficient and eorrupt-three very good
reasons for abolishing it. More than that,
New York has to charge that the fremen
originated the riot of 1881" The state
ment fell like q bombshell in the committee
room. Drunken Tom Fields or respectable
Chief Engineer Decker may deny it, but 1t
is true. The evidence exists, and can be
forthcoming if called for. But will not be
called for Mr.. Acton statement will not be
made the basis of the Committees report,
but it ia believed. For, if any man knows
the inside history Of the great July riot, 1t
is Mr.. President Acton, who crushed It first
and investigated it afteFward. Did ever
write you that subsequent police returns
showed more than fifteen hundred deaths
among the rioters? Such is the fact, though
far from generally known. The great ms-
iority of them died from wounds received
at the hands Of the police, and were not
reekoned in the List Of casuslties made up
at the time.
However, that is by the way. II was go
ing on to say that Acton knowA- all about
the riot, and the iremen don't care to have
his testimony taken. But there are rea-
sons enough for abolishing the volunteers
without going back TO the riot, and with
cut awakening the intense feeling which
such an investigation necessarily would
awaken; SO the Committee will rest on
other grounds.
You can scarcely understand the timid.
ity that prevails here where the fremen
are in question. Mr.. Acton mentioned to
me several instances in which men of pro-
perty and position came to him and said:
awe have signed petitions in favor Of the
volunteer system. We dared not refuse,
but we are heartily against it and We beg
you TO 90 ahead and kill itP And these
rich, weak men gave large sums of money
to forward the passage of the very measure
against which they had petitioned.
It is likely the bill will be made, to some
extent, a party measure; and if SO, will Of
course be carried. Brooklyn nay be left
out-the ire department there being lesE
Objectionable than here.

OuF SicE Soldiers in savanhaII.

Tho letter from Savannah, descriptive Of
the condition of our sick soldiers in the
hospitsls At that city, which was publiahed
in the NswcTork TESbane, Of the 10Th,
presents I'd and suggestive picture. The
writer states that ourCsiek heroes lying
there are dying daily ior the want of pro-
per foodi There is the naked fact, which
no elsbotSte phrasihg can nske more
pregnantly suggestive or terribly startling.
The surgeons in charge Of the Savannah
hospitals state that over fifty per cent Of
thedsaths there are caused By loa'lt Of proper
sloarishnent for the sick. Food-thas Is,
army rAtions,- is plenty, but proper susten-
ance for sick people seems to be unattaina-
bic. ThEee barrels Of potatoes, one OF dried
spplss, and one of beets, sill furnished by the
Sanitary Commission, constitute the sum
otal Of supplies, outside Of regular army
1ations, received at the Savannah hospi-
tails for over month. SeurEy, and kin
dred diseases induced by want of vege-
tables, rAvsge their wards. The officers in
charge have the hard duty of refusing the
piseous supplicAtions of the brave boys
around them for the variety offOod which
is indispensable to their recovery. Many
e brave boy now sleeps under the sands Of
Georgia Who would now be alive and well
could he have. had the food his system
crsved. And this, too, while the munit-
cant generosity Of the North has been send
inglship-lOAd after ship-lOAd of all kinds Of
progislcas 70 the :srebel and semi-rebel oiti-
gems of Savannah -
WIN the people of the North allow this
state Of things TO continue longer2 will
they after deluging the semi-secessi on
city Of Savannah with their benefaesiOns,
stand STILL while ia that sslfssms city tbs
gallant defenders of the Union are dying
from want of food1 Are the people of
the North about to relax the grand efforts
of bsnevoience that have in the war
proven the Christianity as well as the
courage and patriotism of the American
Peopls7 Aa Aa4- ---
The Sanitary Commission are ready
and anxious to afford aid to our poor boys,
bnt they say they have no facilities for
transportation. And yet the sharks that
preyupon the army and the government
find ample facilities for bringing their
stocks to Savannah. Speculation runs
rampant while our heroes are perishing |
Let this matter &c remedied. The .nsces-

The National House of Representatives
has passed the joint resolution directing
the muster out of all soldiers who enlisted
for the unexpired term of old regiments
with the understanding that they we're to
be mustered cut with their regimenis.
This is no more than simple justice. The
faith Of our national authorities was
pledged to these men to this effect, and the
violation of that pledge would be hation-
al disgrace. Some Of them have already
been kept in the service for nearly 8 year
after the muztsr-out of their regiments.

EhS Next Secretary OF the Treasury.
lzs zsSsnstOr Morgan, of New York, having
persmptorily declined the position of Sec
Eetary of the Treasury, which Fessenden
will voluntarily sbdicate on the fourth Of
March, the position will probably be offer
ed either to Mr.. Boutwell,, of Massachu-
setts, or Mr.. MeCullocb, of Indiana. We
sincerely hope that Mr.. McCulloch may be
nominated. Beside the great experience
which his present position, (the Comptrol-
ler-ship Of the Treasury, gives him, and
his well known financial ability, he de-
serves support from the Yves SIS a Western
man. The selfshness and greed of New
EngIsnd manufacturers, and the immense
power that they now WELD over financial
matters in Congress, is too well known
to need remark. Let US guard against in
Producing their power into the manage
ment Of the national fnarces. We do not
say that Mr.. Boutwell,, if appointed, would
be their tool, but Is certainly SIS well TO give
the control of our Treasury Department to
8 man net allied 70 them in sympathy or
education.

gard to the contemplated reform in the
New York Fire Department. -o4
We are going to bend our naughty necks
and take psttern-a little from you. New
York is to have paid Fire Department,
more or less like those of Cincinnati, Bal
timore and Boston. It is remarkable how
quietly and effectively the new scheme has
been engineered Every live New Yorker,
at any rate every lineal descendant of the
Kr icLerbockers, looks upon his municipal
misfortunes as Providentisl Affections, to
be submissively endured He has long re-
garded the Volunteer Fire Department IS
an evil i'm possible to be rid OF. 1t ruled
the city; or if It did not rule, its four thou
sand votes and wide-reaching influence
constituted balance of power which no
party cared to disturb. BesideF, how incur

let your house burn down, or peradven-
ture set fire to it themselves r. Yet the risk
has been taken; 8 hearing has been had at
