"The duplication Of certificates issued

THE FIREMAN's ELECTION.

Last evening, between the hours of
six and eight o'clock, the members of
the Fire Department assembled at the
various fre-houses and in obedience to
a city ordinance exercised the great
prerogative allowed them by the City
Fathers. There seemed to be but lit
tie excitement, although the more ac-
tive friends of the respective candidates
for "red shirt" honors put forth every
energy in bringing voters to the polls.
We did not hear of single case of dis
order, and even after the result was an
nounced there was less enthusiasm than
we had expected to have seen manifes-
ted.
At eight o'clock-the hour for clos
ing the respective polls-the city clerk,
whose duty it is to receive the sworn
returns of each fire company, attested
by the Foreman and Secretary, was at
his station in the council chamber, and
shortly after the firemen began to drop
mall breathlessly gathering around
the secretaries as they endeavored to
make their way to the clerks desk.
Our Reporters, almost as soon as the
secretary arrived, received the Figures
of fate," and after noting them, were
surrounded by those who were most
impatient to hear the result. Many
of the firemen, doubtless, who retired,
without waiting to hear the count, felt
that during the morrow they would
find the full vote laid before them in
the columns of the DAILY MONITOR
the only paper in the city that pretends
to give the news, or keep our people
posted as to passing events" But
we are slightly DEPRESSING. The result
is summed up as follows

baum Brothers, dry goods merchants,

satisfied that the only way to reach
every one in the city is to advertise in
our paper, and they have accordingly
very sehsibly resolved to avail them
selves of the use of the advantages pos
sessed by the only daily in the county.

Mr.. Thompson received a majority
over Mr.. Benjamin of 80 votes.
Mr.. Deignan has a majority over Mr..
McCloud of 10, while Mr.. Van Hart
received a majority of 118 votes over
Mr.. Anderson.
Mr.. Benjamin has served the city
and the fremen faithfully, and with
marked ability, and we have yet to hear
the first word uttered against him Ell
Their as man OF fireman. He desired
a re election because it had been the
custom, but accepts the situation
with all possible grace.
His successor in Office, Mr.. Nathaniel
K. Thompson is gentleman, also we'll
known to our citizens and fremen. He
is engaged in business, and has ever
had many very warm friends in the de-
partment, with which he has been ac-
lively associated since coming among
us. He was candidate two years since
for Assistant Engineer, but was defeat
ed. Last year he ran as candidate
for Chief. but was also defeated-Mr.
Benjamin winning the "stakes" by
handsome odds. At the last election,
however, there were three candidates
in the field, and every one knows that
house divided against itself is certain
to fall. This year Mr.. Thompson is the
" fortunate man" and we feel that the
trust so generously reposed in him will
not be misused by him. Much will be
required of him, but no one doubts his

9th. The rod should rise considerably
above the highest part of the building.
1t has generally been assumed that u
rod will protect circle whose radius is
twice the height of the rod; but this
rule is not always quite safe; and, un-
less building be very small, it should
have more than one rod. Chimneys
need especial protection, both on &C
count of their elevation, and because
the SCOT is good conductor, as is also
the vapor issuing from chimney in
which fire is burning
We have just had erected on our new
house one of Mr.. John A. Morrow's
star lightning rods, and consider it the
best rod for dwellings we have seen. AS
it is connected with copper connections,
making a perfect continuity of surface
attached with glass insulators, and fur
nished with superior gold-plated
point, and erected by Mr.. Morrow him
self, which assures us of its being put

A9- AS the season has arrived for
lightning storms, we should examine
the condition of our lightning rods,
and see that they are all in order. The
points ought to be bright, the insula-
tiop perfect, the rod with con tinuity of
surface, and also see that the rod is not
rusted off where it enters the ground.
In order that lightning rod may af-
ford complete protection, the following
rules should be observed : LIST. The rod
should be Of sufficient size. If the rod
is of iron, it should be from half an
inch to an inch in diameter. If of cop
per, one-half the size may suffice. I'd.
The top should be continuous from top
to bottom. The parts may be made
separate, but when the rod is in its
place, they should be secured together
so as to form q continuous surface,
since links and interrupted joints OPP
pose resistance to the passage of cleo
tricity. Sd. The rod should terminate
at the top in sharp point. In order
that the point may not be blunted by
rust, it should be covered with gold
leaf, or should be made of solid silver,
or platina. 4th. The rod should termi-
nate at the I'D om in wet earth. Dry
earth is poor conductor of electricity.
If, then, the rod should terminate in
dry earth, the electricity, during thun-
der-storm, must accumulate upon the
conductor it will pas off laterally to
other conductors, and occasion the
