English Inspection of Our Fire Depart.
ment SyAiem.

An English commission has been in this
country for some time past inquiring into the
matters of the organization, equipment and
working of our fire system, with the view Of
reporting on all these subjects for the informa-
ton of the home authorities, and suggesting
plans of Improvement in their own. The
members of the commission have already
larger cities of the Union, and have, no doubt,
obtained very considerable amount Of Useful
information. 1t was scarcely necessary, in
deed, that they should have journeyed further
than New York. In this city they could have
learned everything about our masters Of the
Fire King and how they subdue him. Sitting
comfortably in their hotel they may have
taken In the who lie thing almost in moment.
They could, by perusal Of our city records.
almost see the first ''turnouts" Of the first
settlers In the city, down away by the Fly
Market, with their hand lanterns and the
water pals which were ''passed" along the
line, noticed the progress to hose pipe
and a cart, admired the shining glories
Of "Big Six" and the ready prompt
ness of the ''boys" who manned her and
the others of them, and thence come down to
our steam fire engines, our network Of fire tele-
graph, our means of locating o fire by tele-
graph, the rapidity with which the men reach
the scene of danger, as well as the roll-call by
telegraph after their return to the station
houses. From all this the visitors must have
gained considerable amount of information,
and to oil knowledge so acquired they would
be, as they are, perfectly welcome.
England has always paid attention to our
Fire Department. Indeed, it is pretty certain
that the present one Is not the first commission
which she has appointed to 'look" at it.
Some of the others were a little more secret in
their proceedings, and not at oil so friendly in
character. They came, at critical moments In
the history of the relations between the two
countries, to examine, as is pretty well known,
our fire organizations with military eye.
They were made up Of military mon crossing

Two GASES Of shooting In the streets are re-
ported. In one case at Albany man resist
ing arrest shot five times at his pursuers,
careless, Of course, whether he committed FIVE
murders or not. Arson has always been pun
ished with great severity, often with the same
severity as murder, because human life may
always be taken. Why should not this inds-
criminats street shooting be punished with the
same severity for the same reason2

Ex-PREsIDENT FILLMORE ON HUMBOLDT. -
At the Humboldt celebration in Buffalo the
other day ex-President Fillmore made capt.
tai speech on Humboldt, closing with the re-
mark that he (the ex-President) expects never
TO look upon his like again-meaning that Hum
boldt was about the biggest man Of modern
times. Very good. But what is to become Of
old Mr.. Blair, pronounced by Mr.. Fillmore,
not very long ago, 'the greatest man that
ever liyed?"

means that the internal revenue shall be col

several times decided important points In a
way to give peculiar qualification 10 all who
desire to see the great revenue swinaiing
business cut short, and his last move for the
reassessment of incomes and an efficient col
lection of that tax indicates that he knows the
defects of the department over which he pre-
sides

Cuba-Prim and Napoleon.

Napoleon will not touch the Cuban ques-
ton. Our special cable report from Paris
published this morning leaves no room for
doubling the fact that his Majesty so assured
General Prim during his second audience at
court. The Emperor, indeed, advised the
General to negotiate with the Cabinet in
Washington, and sell to the American people,
If he could, instancing, in delicate yet really
forcible manner, his own experiences in
Mexico, as illustrative Of the utility Of
timely retreat from an untenable position.
Prim replied that he was not personally OPP
posed to the imperial plan, but feared that
his countrymen would be found in some
measure intractable on the subject Spain,
we are told, is in blaze on the Cuban ques-
ton just now, but the Spaniards will soon cool
down, if only under the soothing words of
Bonaparte. This is just what we supposed and
have said. General Prims intrigues in Paris
amount to nothing. The language Of very late
news Is "that at a recent interview with Gen.
eral Prim the Emperor renewed his declaration
of absolute non-inlervention in the affairs Of
Spain, and declined to accede to the request that
France should mako representations against
the recognition Of the Cuban insurgents as
belligerents by the United States" Napoleon,
as he acknowledges has had quite enough of
meddling in affairs on this side of the Allan
tic, and will make no other experiment. Prim
had better return to Madrid and advise the
Regent Serrano to accept the hundred mil
lions for the independence Of Cuba at once.

AIR IN MINES -What has just happened at

owners of coal mines that have only one shaft.
By the caving of well man was buried but
owing to the earth forming an arch he was not
crushed. Communication was opened with
him by an iron pipe forced through the soft
earth. This also furnished fresh air and kept
him alive. Mines with only one shaft might
be drilled by the machinery for drilling arte
sian wells and pipes sent down, keeping their
lower ends properly Carried. These, attached
topowerful air pumps above, would always be
ready for an emergency. Such provision for
safety would be even cheap enough for the
