There has been considerable unfavorable com
ment upon the action OF the lower Board of the
City Councils, in passing bill for the purchase
ct an additional steamer for the Fire Depart
ment, at . cost OF $4,000 in the start, and
$40 600 per year Afterwards to run IL. The Curl
Gus feature about this scheme is that the Fire
Commissioners have not only not asked for
new company, but they declare that there is no
need for 1t whatever. We should like to know
who is at the bottom of this plan for
draining this large sum from our already bur
deBed treasury tor purpose declared utterly
unnecessary by those best qualified to know
IL ia proposed to pay $4,000 for the establish
ment of a needless new engine company, and
$1,000 year thereafter for its maintenance at
time when the corporation is so poor that IL
cannot supply the funds appropriated TO keen the
present department in proper working condition
We are tod that there are not actually six SER
vicesble horses in all the department: the sprro
priatiOns for the purchase of new horses. and
for other needs of the department not being
available in consequence OF the impecunious
condition Of the Corporation. We would uepest

ThUriow Weed treats, in the February Cllary.
upon the formation of Lincolns Cabinet. and
solves the enigma how Gideon welles ever got
there. ltseems that Mr. Lincoln thinking that
the Vice President, from his high character and
long experience. was entitled to a voice in the
Cabinet, conceded the selection OF the New
England man to him, and Mr.. Hamlin named

We have already stated that the democr attic
caucus Of the Missouri Legislature has nomi-
mated Gen. Frank P. Blair as their candidate
for Senator. 1t appears, from the detailed vote
teiegraphed here, ninety one members OF the
Missouri Legislature participated in the caucus.
AS the whole number OF members OF both
branches Of the Legislature Is III, this insures
Mr. Blair majority Of at least eleven on Joint
ballot, and will elect hill ~ the successor Of Sem
ator Drake. General Blair has had some iec;s-
lstive experience. He was elected to the House
OF Herresents.ivesfro from Missouri in 1856, and re-

"fair Play" thinks the Metropolitan Street
Railway Company deserve censure as well As
he Avenue railway company for failing to pave
their tracks to correspond With the wood pave

the metropolitan track running through the
wood pavement In front Of Judiciary Square is
80 inconsidersble that the public have not fel,
the same interest in it that they have 4. the

No flank movements are longer practicable,
and it is not likely that Chauzy, even il his

rect attack. Altogether the recent engagement
is considered by many rs the finishing stroke to
Paris, If the Germans can follow up the great
advantage they have gained, and there is but
little doubt they wiz do 50. General Trochu
seems to fully realize the hopeless condition OF
affairs, and the cable brin Is information to-day
OF three desperate sorties from Paris on the
besieging forces, but the French were driven
back in every case with heavy losses. The
