0UR NEW IRON STEAMSHIP.
Exhibition To-day OF the George w.
Clyde.

The new iron propeller George W. Cyde,
of the Philadelphia line, which arrived at this
port few days ago, will be thrown open for
the inspection OF visitors at her berth at
Union wharfIbetween the hours OF eleven ana
one o'clock this morning, and is well worthy
of visit from all who are interested In naval
architecture and improvements, or VINO can
admire and appreciate perfectly appointed
vessel. The Clyde is from the shipyard OF
Messrs. VIM. Cramp & Sons, one of the larg-
est firms of machInists and iron steamship
builders on the Delaware River, and her ap'
pearance reflects great credit on ner oulloers.
THE HULL
ia of heavy plate-iron on strong frame OF the
same metal aad double riveted throughout
Her length Is two hundred aud twenty-six ieet,
breadth of beam thirty-fve feet and depth OF
hold nineteen feet. She registers one thous-
and and thlrty-two tons, and hasa CARRYING
capacity equal to twenty-five hundred bales
of compressed cotton. With cargo OF cot
ton her draft Is eleven and half feet aft aud
nine feet forward, but with the very heavy
freight brought down on her present trip from
Philadelphia, which consisted of iron castings,
molasses, sugar, -four, liquors, &c, which was
the largest and heaviest cargo ever landed
here from Philadelphia, she drew fourteen
feet aft and eleven feet forward.
THE MACHINERY.
The engine is of English pattern, and is
known as the compound engine, style OF en-
pines that Is said 10 possess remarkable ad-
yantages over the old-fashioned marine en-
elnes. The cylinders are Of twenty-four and
thirtp.elght inch diameter, respectively, with
a thlrty-six inch stroke, and the engines work
ND to three hundred and fifty horse power on
a consumption of eight tons OF coal per day
and making from nine to ten knots an hour.
One of the greatest advantages of these en-
gines is their great economy of fuel, which Is
said to be saving Of forty per cent, and this
of course makes less space requisite for coal
bunkers, and accordingly effects large gain
in freight room.
ABOVE DECKS.
The cabin accommodations are ample and
admirable. The staterooms, as In all Messrs.
Cvde's vessels, are on deck, thus securing
the perfection of ventilation and absolute
freedom from all the odors OF the hold and
cargo. The cabins and staterQoms are COM
fortably and even elegantly finished in maple
and black walnut. and the bedding and up
holstery are all Of the very best material and
make. The dining saloon is+aarge, well venti-
lated and inviting, and the cooking apart
ments, pantry, ice-house, &C., are all admira'
bly, adapted to the various purposes for Which
they are intended.

Fire Department OF Charleston, :

February 8, 1872.

The trumpets were consigned to Chief Ma
than, and upon their receipt consultation
was held by the presidents of the different
steam companies as 10 their disposition. 1t
was unanimously decided to present four Of
the trumpets to Chief Engineer Nathan and
the three assistant chief engineers of the de-
partment, Messre. R. Alexander, c. P. Aimar
and F. L. ONeill; but the question of the most
appropriate disposition of the remaining four
was matter of some doubt. Each company was
of course desirous of the honor of possessing
one of the beautiful trophies, and each ap-
peared to have equal claims for the dlstinc-
tlon, and 1t was finally agreed to leave the ap-
portionment of the remaining trumpets to the
arbitrament of chance. Accordingly the pre-
sIdents of all the steam companies again met
at Chief Nathans Office last Wednesday eve
ming and drew lots for the coveted prizes.
The fortunate companies were the German,
the Hope, the Etua and the Marion, and
these companies have now received their
trumpets and given them. honored places
among the decorations of their respective
halls.

The visit to Charleston last November of the
Washington Steam Fire Engine Company, OF
Wilmington, relaware, and their cordial re-
ception BY the steam fire engine companies OF
this city, will be remembered by our
readers, and 1t has apparently been
very gratefully remembered by the gen.
tlemen who were the welcome guests
of our fremen on that occasion. The
Wilmingtonians have now sent to their
late hosts costly, appropriate and elegant
memento of that pleasant occasion In the
shape of eight beautiful silver fire trumpets,
which could hardly have cost much less than
FIVE hundred dollars, accompanied by grace
full and grateful set of resolutions expressive
of the appreciation by the Delaware fremen
of their cordial welcome here and of the en-
dsrlng and pleasant recoectlons OF the event
that they have retained. The trumpets are
very heavily plated with silver on white metal,
with silver cords and tassels and gold-plated
chaiDs, and each bears the following inscrip-
tiOp:

The srEvEDoRE QUEsrIoN.-The case Of
several parties reported foI. doing business as
stevedores without licenses, was investigated
before Recorder Pringle yesterday morning at
the City Hall. The licensed stevedores and
those reported for not having licenses attend
ed, and the presence of large crowd showed
the interest taken in the matter by this branch
Of the workiDgmen. The Judge did not try
the case, but examined only with view to see
whether there was an actlonal complaint
against the parties reported. The principal
point was made whether these parties were
steYsdores or mot, and the court decided
that stevedore was person who was en-
gagged to superintend the loading and unload
ing of vessels, and that BY the city ordinance
every person so engaged was obliged to take
out license. That those whose names were
reported, if they were engaged In such busl-
ness, should comply with the ordinance, OF an
action must he brought against them to en-
force the penalty.

FIGHTING FIRE.
Trial OF the Babcock Fire E1tingulsher

Yesterday afternoon. about four o'clock,
public test of the qualities of this valuable In
vention took place on the Citadel Green, In
the presence of an immense crowd OF men
and boys. Six barrels filed with pitch, rosin,
shavings, &C., were piled up in the form of
pyramid, and, on the application of an ignited
match, the whole mass was quickly enveloped
In flames. As soon as the hre was well un-
der way, and burning with prodigious fierce
ness, Chief Nathan came out with the machine
strapped to his back. He quickly charged 1t
with the acid soda and water, aud, walking up
to within twelve feet of the fire, began 10 play
upon the lower tier OF barrels. The stream
was strong and foamy, similar to that from
soda water fount. Its effect upon the fire
was instantaneous. Wherever it struck the
flames and heat died out like magic, and be-
fore the contents of The machine were ex-
hausted the fire was we'll under control. it
increased little while Chief Nathan recharg-
ed his machine, which was done in about a
minutes time. The fire was then put out In
short time. The test was satisfactory to all
present as to the powers of The machine. The
chief difficulty lies in the use and application
of it.
A short time after the first trial the flames
kindled again among the inaammable mate
rials, and having been encouraged into quite
a respectable fire the machine was again ap-
piled with perfect success. The performance
was most closely watched by large crowd OF
urchlns, whose cheers and shouts as the ma
chine began 10 play were long and loud.
