to farnish u Ftrs Kings Of this city for
the sun Of e4.ooc. This driving viii be
on exhibition in the Post O6ics lobby for !
few days, and ws desire to call 70 it the
particular attsutiea Of the public. This
machine weighs 1000 pounds, only foar
hundred pounds more than the old Fire
King, and from the fact that the Steam
Engine - ~ upon springs and has very
large wheels it will be apparent to all that
It can Be handled with IS great ease ~ the
machine the company now runs. This en-
gine viii force water in good style from the
river up to Fourth street, and steam can
b raised IN four or FIVE minutes while the
enginsis being run from the ensins house
to the river. We submit these few facts to
the consideration Of the public, and will
submit more shortly. Can there be any
doubt Of the utility Of . machine here that
viii handle for the above mentioned dis
tance g much water q Ill three Of the hand
engines now in use! Would it not contrib
ute greatly to the safety Of property, and
in reducing the risk, reduce the price Of
insurancsf We trust that the citizens and
the City Council will look 1t this matter
upon its merits and lend the Fire King :
helping hand in their noble efforts to serve
the best interests Of the city. We hope
the matter win be candidly considered At
the next meeting.

At . recent Presidential Soiree, Miss
c., Of Ohio, astonished and delighted
the company by the magni6cencs Of her
toilette. The ladies were soon on the qui
rice TO learn the secret of her radiant dis.
play, and it became whispered about that it
was attributable to the use Of " Lubin's
Hair Dressing Floriline." The fact was
duly noted, and the next day one druggist
in Washington sold forty seven cartons Of
the new toilet requisite. Thus does real
" good article advertise its own merits.

Great Destitution in Charleston.

A private letter from the feet, says refu-
gees from Charleston and other ports in
South Carolina, state that all the inhabitants
who could do SO have removed to the coun-

any four and other neceesaries can be OBJ
tained at any price. Sherman's s success oc-
casions general alarm. Several blockade
runners IN Charleston harbor are awaiting
an opportunityto escape Many passengers

There is little business in Charleston other
than that connected with blockade running g
