DFFENSE or EyAS1ONs AND
DELAYS.


The Assembly Committee on Cities met
las, week to consider tie subject OF the Figc
Department Of this city. The opponents Of The
present system appeared, and desired that the
hearing should be proceeded with. The adyo-
Gates Of the volunteer system asked delay and
postpcnement on the ground that they were
not prepared to make an exhibition OF facts and
arguments. They appeared by Mr.. John sedr-
wick as counsel. The ground on which the
nostponement is claimed should attract
attention. T. is tha, the existing Fire De-
partment and il. officers are not prepared
with facts and arguments, and want time
for preparation. Have they read the testimony
already published in relation to their own
Department Are they ignorant Of the
neglects and abuses committed by themselves
during long series of years. DO not they sce
that they are on the defense that there is "a
public Indictment against them, and that they
must traverse or dcny it Will II do for them
to pretend that they haze not been fully alive
TO this subject ever since it was introduced into
the Legislature Having bill OF their own,
yoluminous and carefully drawn, under the
forms Of which they profess to have been acting
by way of reformation for two months, and
which they press upon the Legislature, is It to
be credited that they are not sufficiently i'll
formed to argue the whole case before the Com
mit,ee? VIII Mr.. Sedgwick explain to the
Committee the motive Of the Fire Department
for so pcrtinaeiously thrusting their volunteer
services upon the community Is 1t probable
that a. 900 men are willing to devote their time.
their labor, at no little peril without some com
pensa,on or some motive
Those most interested, having property to be
DESTROYED By fire, and holding insurance stocks,
would be very happy to be rid Of these gra-
uitous" services, and suffer a pretty sharp
tax TO compensate different body of men
10 do the duty better, on the ground Of en-
lightened economy-in which there is always
potential logic-being certain that they would
save largely by the change. The improvement
in morals and public order, the diminution OF
crime which would result from the reform, we
pass over; but will Mr.. Sedgwick reply in his
speech to the wcl-estabisheG fact that this VOL
untary system destroysfar more property, by bad
management, breakage and larceny, than is de-
stroyed by the fire itself! Allow us to be saved, If
possible, from damages by water, unnecessarily
and often wilfully used under the pretense OF
putting ont a fire. 1t lis to be hoped thatthe Leg
islature will see through so shallow an artifce.
and not permit this measure to be defeated by
DELAY, in the name of preparation and investi-
pation. Enough is already known and proved
to do away with the present organization and
substitute better.

The draft documents this morning published
will be found of interest to all citizens. Possibly
they may do something to rouse the people OF
New-York from the lstleSSness they now eX-
hibit in reference to the draft. Taken together
these papers mean just this, that there will be a
draft unless popular effort prevents it. The
Supervisors Committee can do no more, unaidcd,
than they are now doing. Gen. Kinks says,
and means, that unless recruits are supplied in
greater numbers, the draft must come. To
avoid it, two things are necessary: ].
That the County bonds in aid OF
volunteering be taken forthwith; that the
people, that each person individually, shall do
something to help voluntcering-th those
able, for instance, shall furnish substitutes in
advance-that meetings shall be held-thot
patriotism and sclfintcrest shall alike be APP
pealed TO. All this and more must be done at
once, for if ten days elapse and the rate OF re-
cruting is not largely augmented the Draft is
upon us. Ye who are TO bear the burden, be
warned in time We appeal eSpeciallyto Capt.
talists to lend the County the money necessary
to secure volunteers.
